Tie Kui Extra Story (Fifty-Nine)

There are six taels of silver for one month of trial period. After the probationary period is over, the wages will increase. Well done, the boss will pay dividends at the end of the year.

After the errand was settled, Shao Chengwen rented two rooms, and then brought Niu and his two children over.

Unexpectedly, within a few days after arriving in the county, Niu bought a house behind Shao Chengwen's back. It was a big house with six rooms and a small yard.

Shao Chengwen asked, "Where did you get so much money?" The couple spent a lot of money in the countryside over the years, and there was not much left on hand.

Niu didn't dare to hide it, and said: "I sold the red gold silk-encrusted ruby ​​bracelet my mother-in-law gave me, and the money from the sale is half of the house." Niu has a lot of jewelry in his hand. . One part was her dowry, the other part was bought by Shao Chengwen, but the most expensive ones were all given by Chunxiang.

It was also Niu's own jewelry that he bought with Shao Chengwen, all of which were gold, and they couldn't afford the price at this moment. As for the ruby ​​bracelet, because it is a rare item with fine workmanship, the jewelry shop paid a high price.

Shao Chengwen was silent for a while, and said: "The jewelry that mother gave you is not allowed to be sold in the future, but to be passed on to your children and grandchildren."

Niu nodded and said, "Sir, I'm going to buy a shop with the remaining money. Even if I don't do business, I can rent out the shop. The rent for a year is about twenty or thirty taels." It's dead in hand, and it's hard to do business now, so let's buy property first.

Shao Chengwen didn't object, and said: "Yes. The back house is also rented out. Let's live in it after a few years!" If he rents such a big house now, Shao Lili will definitely come to live in it. The last thing he wants to see is Shao Lili, how can he let him live with him.

"Okay." Seeing that the house is relatively large, the location is good and the price is fair, Niu sold the jewelry. Because if you miss it, you will not be able to buy it at this price in the future.

The family of five still lives in two rented rooms. From the outside, it looks like life is not going well.

Not long after Shao Lili went to the county seat, Shao Cheng and his family of three and Shao Chenghong also returned to the county seat one after another.

After all, after living in the county for so many years, how can I get used to staying in the countryside.

The three sons returned to the county one after another, leaving Shao Lili and his three sons and daughters in the countryside.

Not long after, Shao Lili married him to Chunxiang's youngest daughter, Shao Xiaomei.

Chunni and Tiehu said: "Father, Shao Lili married Shao Xiaomei to a butcher in the town, and received a dowry gift of fifty taels of silver.

Even without the wedding, let the other party take Shao Xiaomei back. "As for the dowry, there is no more.

It's also because Shao Xiaomei is pretty, otherwise she wouldn't have received so much dowry.

Tie Hu didn't even lift his eyelids. Shao Xiaomei was brought up by Shao's mother, and if she listened to Shao's mother's words, she always went against Chunxiang. They are not close to outsiders. The whole Tie family disliked this granddaughter very much.

Chun Ni said: "After selling his daughter, what else can he sell?" No matter how much she doesn't like Shao Xiaomei, she can't understand Shao Lili's behavior.

Tie Hu sneered and said, "Don't you have a pair of children?" The others all married wives and had children, and Shao Chenghong was beyond Shao Lili's control. But for those two little ones, Shao Lili had the final say.

Speaking of this, Tie Hu said: "Let Hongbo send someone to investigate, so where did Jiang go? Jiang is also one of the murderers who killed Chunxiang, we can't let her go."

Chunni nodded and said, "Okay."

Not long after, Mrs. Lin came to tell Chunni the good news: "Shao Lili was drunk and fell into the ditch and broke his leg." Lin's second son and daughter-in-law are from Dazhang Village, so they can quickly know where the thing.

Chun Ni sneered and said: "Forcing his wife to death, and now he is selling girls again, God is going to punish him again!"

Mrs. Lin gloated and said, "It's more than that! The two children born of Mrs. Jiang took advantage of the time when Shao Lili was unconscious and Shao's mother was asleep, and stole the dowry money from the butcher and ran away at night."

Although Chunni hated Shao Lili and Jiang's to the core, she would not blame the two children: "If such a small child runs out and encounters a kidnapper, his life will be ruined." parents.

Lin lamented Chunni's kindness: "This is their fate." After the two children ran away from Jiang, Shao Lili and Shao's mother beat and scolded them, and life was extremely miserable.

Chunni told Tie Hu about this: "Father, Shao Lili is lying on the bed now, and the old godmother doesn't care about his life at all. Now he is lying on the bed waiting to die." No one is taking care of the broken legs, so why not? wait to die.

"The three sons didn't come back?"

Chunni shook her head and said, "No, but Cheng Wen entrusted someone to send back two taels of silver. Others, it seems that they don't know about it."

Tie Hu was silent for a while and said: "From now on, you don't need to tell me about this man again." Shao Lili has already suffered retribution, so he doesn't want to hear the name of this beast again. Listen to it once, and feel bad once.

Chunni said something that made Tiehu happy: "Father, the house in the county seat has been tidied up. Let's go and see the house when the weather clears up."

In such a cold day, Tie Hu didn't want to go out: "It's fine for you husband and wife to take your daughter-in-law to see it. We will move to the county seat in the spring of next year."

Chunni and Duan Dongzi have also talked about this many times: "Father, Dongzi and I will not move to the county seat." Firstly, the husband and wife can't let go of the family's field; secondly, they have nothing to do when they go to the county seat Can do. People who are used to being busy can't be idle.

Tie Hu waved his hand and said, "You can do whatever you want." Anyway, he would definitely go with the eldest grandson and the great grandson.

When Ning Hai returned to the barracks, he heard that Uncle Guo Han Jianming had arrived. He was very surprised, what did Han Jianming come here at this time. Soon he knew that Han Jianming had come to persuade him to surrender.

Because Ning Hai let him out of the city that day, Han Jianming had a good relationship with him: "If Yan Wushuang is willing to surrender, it will be good for the country and the people."

It is a good thing for the soldiers and the common people not to fight. But Ning Hai is not very optimistic about this matter: "Based on what I know about Yan Wushuang, he would rather die than surrender. If you go here, you may never return."

Han Jianming smiled and said, "No matter what you do, it's always dangerous."

More than twenty years ago, he gave up his title and family property and took his wife and children to defect to Yuxi. It can be said that it was a big gamble. In the end, he won the bet, and the Han family became a top rich family again. This time, it was also a big gamble. If it fails, Yuxi will take care of it, and the Han family will not worry about it for fifty years. If he succeeds, his name will last forever. Maybe he could become the chief assistant.

This is also when he knew that Yuxi wanted to send someone to persuade Yan Wushuang to surrender, so he volunteered.

Ning Hai thought for a while and asked, "How is your relationship with Han Yuchen? If you have a good relationship, you can meet her."

Han Jianming understood as soon as he heard it: "What do you mean, Han Yuchen can influence Yan Wushuang's decision?"

Ning Hai shook his head and said, "Han Yuchen's son Yan Hengli is deeply loved by Yan Wushuang, and he is also the chosen successor. Yan Hengli's attitude also has a great influence on Yan Wushuang." This is Yangmou, rather than conspiracy.

Han Jianming nodded and said, "Thank you very much."

On the second day, Han Jianming went to Shengjing.

Ning Hai sent Han Jianming to the gate of the city, and said: "If the two armies are fighting, the courtiers will stop him as long as they don't touch Yan Wushuang's bottom line."

Han Jianming smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will return safely." Unless Yan Wushuang didn't care about his wife and children. Otherwise, he would not have been killed. Because once he was killed, not only Yuxi, but Brother Hua would not let Yan Wushuang and his children go.

The waiting time is the most exhausting. Even Yun Qing, who has always been calm, couldn't help walking up and down the room.

"Send someone to see if Uncle Guo has left the city?" If something happened to Han Jianming, they would lose another humerus minister. Not to mention the years of getting along, the relationship is very deep. If it wasn't for Yuxi's consent, he wouldn't let Han Jianming be the envoy to persuade him to surrender.

The sent person came back soon this time: "Your Majesty, Uncle Guo is back."

Hearing this, Yun Qing's hanging heart just fell.

Seeing Han Jianming, Yun Qing immediately asked, "How is it? What's Yan Wushuang's attitude?"

Han Jianming shook his head and said, "He only made one request, that is, to see you, the emperor." It would be more efficient to negotiate conditions with Yunqing directly. After all, if you want to talk to him, you have to ask Yunqing for instructions, and Yunqing's consent is the only way to be sure.

"It's fine to meet, but the place of meeting must be determined by me." Yan Wushuang was extremely cunning, and he couldn't believe it.

The tension of the matter went smoothly, even Ninghai suspected that there was fraud. Therefore, when entering the city, he suggested waiting for them to take over Shengjing to ensure that there were no problems in the city before Yunqing entered the city.

Yun Qing also didn't trust Yan Wushuang, so he nodded in agreement with Ning Hai's suggestion.

Facts have proved that this time Ning Hai was suspicious. They successfully took over Shengjing City, while Yan Wushuang stayed in Yanwang Mansion without going out.

Until Han Jianming sent Yan Wushuang away from Shengjing, he didn't see him doing anything wrong. It made Ning Hai suspect that Yan Wushuang was not the person in Yan Wang's mansion.

When Shengjing City stabilized, Ning Hai sent someone to find Tie Honglin. Unexpectedly, Tie Honglin found it by himself.

Seeing Tie Honglin, Ning Hai smiled and said, "It really looks like your grandfather."

Tiehu relies most on his eldest grandson Hongbo, and his favorite is Honglin. However, before Webster's incident broke out, he treated all the children equally.

Honglin performed a junior salute, and said respectfully, "Honglin has seen uncle."

Ning Hai asked: "How did you come here in the past few years?" You should have suffered a lot in the past few years.

Hong Lin shook his head with a smile and said, "A friend of mine opened a restaurant, and I help him every morning. I don't ask for wages, I just ask him to provide me with food and lodging."

As long as the person is safe and sound, Ning Hai didn't ask more specifically, "Honglin, the imperial court will definitely resume the scientific examination next year. Are you sure you will be admitted as a scholar?"

Hong Lin's eyes lit up, he nodded and said, "Yes." In the past few years, he has not left the book behind. Spend half a day every day reviewing homework and practicing calligraphy.

"In that case, then you go home first. Then, go back to the academy to study." It is definitely not possible to work behind closed doors. You have to let the teacher teach more and communicate with your classmates more.

Hong Lin nodded and said, "I'll go back tomorrow."
