Tie Kui Extra Story (51)

Hearing that Yunqing was mobilizing troops to attack Liaodong, Ning Hai secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He had been looking forward to the imperial court sending troops to Liaodong, so that Tiehu would not have to hide in the mountains all the time. Even if he won't be cold or hungry, but the life in the mountain is hard, and Tiehu is old, it's better to go down the mountain earlier.

Yunqing's imperial driver personally marched, and the army was as powerful as a broken bamboo. It didn't take long for the army to take Anshan.

It is a war, and the general who leads the troops will definitely not be able to leave at this time. Ning Hai asked his bodyguard Ah Shao to bring six guards to Tiejia Village: "You take them to the mountain and bring the old man down."

Ah Shao has been to Tiejia Village three times, and he knows how to get there. He nodded immediately and said, "Don't worry, Uncle, I will definitely take Grandfather down the mountain in one piece."

A Shao walked forward, and Ning Hai followed the army to attack the next city.

Every time the army went to a place, they would raid the local officials and rich and unkind country gentry and rich households. When it comes to Anshan, it is no exception. The Shao family is also on the search list.

When the officers and soldiers came to raid the house, the Shao family stopped them. As a result, the whole family was tied up into rice dumplings by officers and soldiers. Mother Shao, who was cursing, was stuffed with a rag by a soldier.

The family property he had worked so hard to save was about to be emptied, Shao Lili suddenly had a flash of inspiration and shouted: "This official, I don't know if you know Tie Kui."

Among the officers and soldiers, there was indeed one who had heard of Tie Kui's name. Putting down the suitcase in his hand, he asked strangely, "Do you know Tie Kui?"

Shao Lili grasped the driftwood like a drowning man, and said, "He is my brother-in-law."

Another soldier asked, "Who is Tie Kui? Is he famous?" If he is not famous, it is impossible for his buddy to know.

The soldier who spoke first smiled and said, "Tie Kui is Anyang Bo Ninghai, he is the empress's real uncle."

After finishing speaking, the man looked at Shao Lili and said, "You said Tie Kui is your brother-in-law, don't you mean that your wife is the queen's aunt?"

Shao Lili didn't know Tie Kui's real identity at all, and was stunned for three minutes when he heard the words of the two soldiers. But when he came back to his senses, he immediately said: "Tie Kui is my brother-in-law. Everyone in the county knows about it. If the official doesn't believe it, feel free to ask." Keep the family business first, as for Queen Anyang Bo and so on He'll figure it out later.

The first soldier who spoke hesitated for a moment, but went to find their immediate superior.

The immediate superior knew all about this matter,

Hearing this, he couldn't help laughing and said: "Uncle Anyang is the only one who survived from the empress' mother clan."

The soldier said: "He said that people in the whole county know that Tie Kui is his brother-in-law. There should be no falsehood. Besides, I don't think he dared to deceive us."

The immediate boss thought for a while and said: "Stick all their things, and if Uncle Anyang comes forward to ask for property in the future, he will return the things to them." them.

Not only were the valuables of the Shao family emptied, but the shop and property were also confiscated by the government. The officers and soldiers gave them a house to live in. In fact, the Shao family is not bad, but one person died after taking the medicine they sold. Like other gentry and wealthy households who did many bad things, the head of the family and the perpetrators were directly beheaded, and all property including the house they lived in was also confiscated. As for where these people live, these officers and soldiers don't care.

Shao Lili saw Mother Shao and his second daughter-in-law sitting on the ground crying, and said angrily, "Why are you crying? I didn't hear those officers and soldiers say that your uncle is now Uncle Anyang. When the time comes, we will ask your uncle. The belongings must be returned."

The second daughter-in-law hung her head and said nothing. Although this uncle is called Uncle Anyang, it is unknown whether he will help to get the property back. It's just that, she didn't say it.

When Ah Shao went to Tiejia Village, he knew that Tiehu and his party were still on the mountain when they saw that the tables and chairs in the house were covered with dust. Following Ning Hai's instructions, Ashao went to Ershui.

Ershui had heard that Mingjun was coming soon, and was looking forward to Tie Kui's return! Seeing Ah Shao, Er Shui was overjoyed: "Let's go, I'll take you to find Brother Tiehu and Chunni."

Chunni is taking her daughter-in-law to pick vegetables in the vegetable garden. It is a tiring job to cook meals for more than ten people every day.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were picking vegetables when they suddenly heard the barking of a wolf dog. Chunni hurriedly walked forward with a vegetable basket.

As soon as he arrived at the front yard, he saw the majestic Ashao in a military uniform and six guards in military uniforms like him.

Chunni was so happy that the basket fell down: "A Shao, did Kuizi send you to pick us up the mountain?" Apart from going to the town to buy necessities such as salt, oil and grain, they dare not go down the mountain again. However, this does not mean that they want to stay on the mountain.

At the foot of the mountain, if you lack anything, just go to the town to buy it. But here, even if you have money, you can't buy anything, which is too inconvenient. Sometimes I want to eat dumplings with oil residue, but I don’t have any.

Ah Shao smiled and nodded, "Yes. Second aunt, grandpa, uncle sent us to pick you up and grandpa down the mountain."

Tie Hu hurriedly asked, "Ah Shao, is Kui Zi alright?" Although Tie Kui is said to be Uncle Anyang now, Tie Kui is still worried about him.

Ah Shao nodded and said: "Don't worry, grandpa. Uncle is fine now. The emperor and the queen empress rely on him very much. Now, he is following the emperor to attack Shengjing. When the battle is over, he will come back to visit you."

"He's busy so he doesn't need to come back." Knowing that his son was safe and sound, Tie Hu was relieved.

It was already dark at this time, and it was not suitable for traveling. Therefore, Ah Shao and his party stayed in the mountains and prepared to leave tomorrow morning.

Chunni asked curiously: "Ah Shao, I heard that the empress is domineering, and she is also very fierce. Ah Shao, is this true?"

Ah Shao heard the words and said with a smile: "Second aunt, those rumors are not credible. The empress is very gentle and kind. I don't know how many people have received her favor. By the way, the empress is very gentle."

Chunni: ...This is not the same person as what she heard, okay!

Seeing Chunni's appearance, Ah Shao said, "Seeing is believing, hearing is believing. When you have a chance to meet the Empress, you will know the truth of what I said."

Chun Ni said with a look of surprise: "You mean, is it possible for me to visit the empress?"

Ah Shao paused, but still told the truth: "The Empress is very busy with government affairs, even if uncle has nothing to do, he won't be able to see the Empress." The second aunt's grandmother has nothing to do with the Empress, so she probably won't be able to see her.

Chun Ni looked disappointed.

Seeing this, Ah Shao said: "The empress raises the son as her own son, maybe the empress will come to attend when the son gets married." This thing is also uncertain.

After hearing this, Chunni felt something was wrong, and asked, "When did Fang Hui and Fang Jia be raised by the queen?"

"It's not the eldest and second young masters, it's the third young master." Seeing everyone looking at him, Ah Shao said, "The third young master was born to my wife. At that time, the uncle was afraid that his identity would be exposed and the whole family would be killed by Yan Wushuang. Hide it and send it to the northwest."

Chun Ni said, "I see. What's the child's name?"

A Shao glanced at Tiehu, and said cautiously: "The son's surname is Ning and his name is Zhan. And uncle, he also changed his original name to Ning Hai."

Tie Hu knew that Tie Kui had changed back to his original name long ago, but he only found out about having a son-in-law now. However, there is no difference between the legitimate son and the concubine in the countryside.

When going to bed at night, Chunni tossed and turned on the bed. In the end, she woke up Duan Dongzi who was already asleep and said, "When I go down the mountain, the first thing to do is to bring back all the stolen things from my house."

Duan Dongzi has a good temper, and he didn't lose his temper when he was woken up: "Okay." It was originally his family's thing, so he had to come back.

Chunni shook her head again and said, "No, I don't want all the things they have used. I will turn everything into silver. Otherwise, I will never end with them."

"good."

Chun Ni said again: "Ershui said that all my fields were taken away by those shameless people. After going down the mountain, I have to take back all the fields." Their fields are all top-notch.

Duan Dongzi said: "Not only the fields have to be returned, but also the land rent for this year has to be recovered." The family's fields are the lifeblood of Duan Dongzi. The field was robbed, and this matter has always been on his mind.

Chun Ni nodded and said, "You're right, you have to pay the rent for the past few years." Otherwise, it would be a big loss.

The husband and wife mumbled to each other and didn't fall asleep until midnight. Of course, not only Duan Dongzi and his wife, but Hongbo and his wife also talked about Xiao Bansu. However, they are not talking about the fields at home.

Mrs. Fu said to Hongbo in a low voice: "Master, when you get down the mountain, tell your grandfather that you want to find a job in the county government." Mrs. Fu is a girl from the county seat, and her aunt is Mr. Hongbo's wife.

Because Fu's mother-in-law was unreliable, she became a matchmaker because she saw that Hongbo was doing well in all aspects.

Chunni met Fu Shi once, and saw that she was gentle and pleasant, so she agreed to the marriage right away. If the eldest daughter-in-law has a bad temper, the family will be in dire straits. Therefore, even if Mrs. Fu doesn't know how to do field work, she agrees to this marriage. Facts have proved that this daughter-in-law is indeed married to the right one. In the past few years, she brought her children to work in the fields with Chunni every day, even if she was pregnant, she didn't stop for a few days, but she never complained.

Hong Bo understood what Fu Shi meant, hesitated for a while and said, "This is not very good."

Fu said: "Just looking for a job that you can do, I think my grandfather will definitely agree."

Seeing that Hongbo was still hesitating, Mrs. Fu said: "Master, you have to think about Dabao and the others. If you want to keep farming in the countryside, Dabao and the others will have to spend their entire lives digging in the fields. When they grow up, they can only Marry a girl from the village. But if you can work in the yamen, not to mention it will be good for Dabao's future, in the future Dabao will also be able to marry a girl from the city."

Parents are basically children-oriented. Hearing this, Hong Bo said: "I'll write a letter to my uncle when I get down the mountain and tell him about it." Since it's his own business, he opened his mouth. It seemed irresponsible to ask my grandfather to help me.

A smile appeared on Fu's face.

Seeing how happy she was, Hong Bo said, "Don't have too much hope, maybe uncle doesn't agree!"

Fu felt that they didn't ask too much, and Tie Kui should agree. But thinking this way in his heart, he said: "If uncle disagrees, there must be his difficulties."

Hong Bo nodded in satisfaction and said, "That's the reason."
