Seeing that it was almost done, Yang Sizhuang hurriedly said: "It's getting late, we have to rush to the county. We must set off early to ensure that we don't miss the day to return to the capital."
Originally, he planned to leave one day later, but now that he saw Yang Laoer's behavior, he was afraid of causing trouble again, so it was better to leave as soon as possible.
Yang Fugui also knew what Yang Sizhuang was thinking, so he followed his words and went back to pack his luggage.
After the two left, Ms. Li also breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing that her second son was in a state of despair, she didn’t say anything.
After Yang Sizhuang returned to Fucheng with his troops, he immediately took his matchmaker to pick up Zhong Mianmian from Zhong Mansion. The group first took a boat to the north, and then transferred to a horse-drawn carriage halfway to cancel their leave before the date set by the Ministry of Officials.
Yang Sizhuang undoubtedly entered the Hanlin Academy. Yang Fugui was a little more troublesome. Fortunately, there was a connection like King Xiaoyao in Jiangning, so he arbitrarily arranged Yang Fugui to the prosperous Jiangnan.
At the same time, she also arranged a marriage for Yang Fugui according to Li's wishes. The other party was the daughter of a sixth-rank Beijing official, which was nothing in the capital. But for Yang Fugui, he had a higher priority for this marriage. After all, he The situation at home is really hard to describe.
Under the auspices of Jiang Ning, the two quickly got married and took some guards, maids and servants to Jiangnan to take up their posts.
The wedding day of Yang Sizhuang and Zhong Mianmian was chosen in October. Fan Tongshu personally came to the house with his two sons and daughter-in-law to express his willingness to help. With Zhong Mianmian's approval, Jiang Ning asked the Fan family to take Zhong Mianmian back temporarily. Anyway, the Shi family had already revealed If there is no trouble, Zhong Mianmian will not be in any danger if he lives in his grandfather's house, and he can also gain a good reputation as a filial piety.
In October, the two got married smoothly. Since then, Jiang Ning has finally helped her four sons get married and start a business. After marrying off her daughter, she can really relieve herself of the burden and become a wealthy and idle person.
At this moment, King Xiaoyao personally brought the matchmaker to the door and looked at her eagerly.
Jiang Ning was startled and looked at him warily, "What kind of trouble are you trying to make?"
King Xiaoyao laughed twice and winked, "I think your little girl is quite nice, why don't you give it to my brat? Let me tell you, I am sincere when I come here this time!"
"Sincerity? What sincerity?" Jiang Ning raised his eyebrows and immediately looked nonchalant.
King Xiaoyao smiled apologetically, but he scolded Jiang Ning in his heart. He personally held a box in front of Jiang Ning and said, "My brat saved this by himself. He said it was his wish for your daughter."
"What's so mysterious!" Jiang Ning opened the box nonchalantly, then quickly closed it, blinking hard with his beautiful eyes, "How much?"
King Xiaoyao stretched out a finger and said, "One million taels! My son's sincerity in asking for marriage! If you think it's not enough, there are more. The few boxes of gems, jade, and finished products made into head and face accessories are all betrothal gifts for your daughter. !”
Jiang Ning swallowed hard, and it took her a long time to calm down. She really wanted to continue to be aloof and not give up for five buckets of rice, but her actions were very honest. She held the box in her arms, smiled so hard that her teeth could not be seen, and her attitude was warm. He stood up and said, "Look at you, we have been friends for so many years, and we have been exposed to so many things! But! Since this is the child's sincerity, I naturally can't refuse, otherwise it will make the child's heart cold! Tell me, When are you going to pick me up at my house?”
"So happy?" Now it was King Xiaoyao's turn to be surprised and became suspicious.
Jiang Ning rolled his eyes, "Nonsense! Since I have already accepted your family's betrothal gift, why bother with it? Although our family is not short of money, sometimes money is much more reliable than men. The prince can give out so much money. At least it proves that my daughter is important enough in his heart! In addition, I have watched that child grow up, and his character is much more reliable than yours, so let’s leave it at that!”
The matchmaker thought the matter would be settled, but she didn't expect that Guang Enhou would be so happy. The two families immediately agreed on the marriage of their children.
The noble girl in the capital also knew immediately that Yang Xuejun was going to marry Xiao Chongyun, the prince of Xiaoyao Prince. Many people were jealous, but they only dared to gossip behind their backs and did not dare to discuss it in public. After all, Yang Xuejun became famous in one battle, so everyone could I don't want to be targeted by her.
Time flies, and another year has passed in the blink of an eye.
The seeds from the Western Regions that Yang Santie brought back were growing well, including corn, potatoes and other seeds. She remembered that these originated in South America, and she didn’t know how they spread to the Western Regions. Or maybe the Western Regions themselves also had these things, but no one knew about them. That’s all.
Anyway, when these seeds bear fruit and the yield per mu is recorded, she will report the results to the emperor as soon as possible, and then make a contribution to the people of Qi.
At this time, Xiao Chongyun, who had made great achievements in the northwest, finally returned to the capital to marry the girl he had longed for.
The two got married and returned home four days later.
Wang Xiaoyao and Jiang Ning were sitting in the pavilion in the garden chatting.
Xiaoyao Wang asked abruptly: "Fellow, from the first time we met, you said you would tell me your details. I have been waiting for so many years but never waited for you to open your mouth. Now that our two children are married, you are Isn’t it time to get to the bottom of things?”
Jiang Ning paused while drinking tea, recalling the past that she had almost forgotten. She was so angry that she gritted her teeth and pounded the table with her fists, "Say whatever you want! If you say too much, it will be hate! I think back then I was also a single aristocrat with a successful career. Not only is my cooking skills incomparable, but I am also ranked among the best in the world. Just because I was chatting with a stranger in a cafe on a blind date, I traveled through time. He must have taken advantage of her and drugged me to death! "
She had many doubts before, and this answer was the most likely.
“Pfft!” Xiaoyao Wang spurted all the tea in his mouth and said in shock: “Wells Restaurant Coffee Corner, Miss Jiang?”
"Huh?" Jiang Ning subconsciously leaned back and stared at Xiaoyao King carefully for a few times, with a hint of grit in his tone, "IT elite Mr. Xiao?"
King Xiaoyao jumped up quickly and swore to the sky, "I did not drug him. This matter has nothing to do with me. I am innocent!"
After saying that, the two looked at each other for a long time and suddenly laughed.
King Xiaoyao continued to sit down, poured her a cup of tea, and raised the glass, "We didn't get married, but we became in-laws. Come! Here's to our fantastic life!"
Jiang Ning suddenly raised his glass and raised his glass. The two of them looked at each other and smiled, making a tacit agreement not to mention the past.
Half a year after Yang Xiaoya's wedding, news suddenly came from her hometown that Old Yang passed away in his sleep. Jiang Ning hurriedly took his son, daughter-in-law, grandson and granddaughter back to attend the funeral. Before they returned to their hometown, they received the bad news that Li had followed them.
Brothers Yang Datou couldn't help but cry a few times on the road.
The village has been keeping the bodies of the old couple until they return before burying them.
Jiang Ning went to the old house as soon as he entered the village.
When Mrs. Zhou saw her coming back, it was like seeing her backbone. She pulled Jiang Ning and cried bitterly.
Jiang Ning felt extremely sad and had to force himself to take charge of the overall situation.
Nowadays, the Yang family is full of capable people. Old man Yang is the Li family and is in mourning.
Even Pan Xiuniang, Flower Shopkeeper, and An Yongliang’s family who live in Songxi Town came.
Meeting old friends also diluted some sadness.
Only then did Jiang Ning realize that everyone was living a good life in recent years, and the first one to bear the brunt was Shopkeeper Hua. Not only had his Linjiang Inn expanded, but he had also opened a branch in Fucheng, and his business was booming.
After Pan Xiuniang's daughter Hong Xiaoqiao married Jiang Nan, she took care of everything in the family and gave birth to three grandchildren. One of them had the surname of Hong Xiaoqiao. Pan Xiuniang now only takes care of the children, has nothing to worry about, is broad-minded and fat.
An Yongliang's grandmother has passed away a long time ago. Over the years, his business with Pingshangou has continued, and it has grown bigger and bigger. He can save hundreds of taels a year, and he is already a famous small landowner in Songxi Town.
Seeing that everyone is doing well, Jiang Ning is really happy.
The funerals of Mr. Yang and Mr. Li were very grand.
After An Yongliang and his party left, the Wu family in the town and the shopkeeper of the Dashan Inn followed.
The Dashan Inn had been making a good profit relying on Jiang Ning's mushroom recipes, and the shopkeeper had also accumulated a substantial fortune. As he got older, he had resigned from the post of the shopkeeper of the Dashan Inn and returned to the village to buy a hundred acres of land. He was living a good life. Tasty.
Not to mention the Wu family. Wu Changfeng is a capable person in his own right. In addition, he has cooperated with Jiang Ning many times. He has now left the county bodyguard bureau and started recruiting soldiers and buying and selling his own business. Although the scale is not as large as that of Yang Santie, it is still a small business. Come on, earning a few thousand taels a year is not a problem.
Liu Cuihua has witnessed the rise of Jiangning and knows the importance of cultivating future generations. She moved her family to Fucheng last year. This time she brought her family back after receiving the news.
Jiang Ning was grateful for her kindness and ordered people to entertain the Wu family.
With so many people coming, the funeral of Old Man Yang and Mrs. Li was held in a grand and dignified manner.
After the old couple were buried, Jiang Ning had enough time to sit down and discuss things with the third room.
She stared at Yang Laosan and Zhou, and said in deep thought: "Now that father and mother are gone, there is no need for you to stay in the village to fulfill your filial piety. If you want to follow us, you can go and settle down in the capital or Fucheng. I will ask someone to do it for you." You arrange it.”
If it had been before, the couple would have been ecstatic when they heard this and agreed without even thinking about it. But since the last time they met Haiyu Earth Dragon, Zhou didn't dare to make a blind decision, and they still remembered Old Man Yang and What Li said.
At that moment, Yang Laosan shook his head, "Sister-in-law, we appreciate your kindness, but our roots are in the village. We have to guard it even if our parents are not here. Besides, we don't have the ability to support ourselves if we go out with you. It's better to stay in the village honestly.
It’s expensive, but he finally got admitted as a scholar, and we don’t have much knowledge and don’t know how to help him. "
Jiang Ning nodded clearly, "You don't have to worry about Lai Gui. I'll go to the academy later and ask my husband. If he's capable, I'll let him go to Quzhou Academy to stay for a few years. After passing the exam, I'll go to the capital. I’ll arrange it, but he’s already a grown man, and it’s time to get married once the filial piety period is over.”
Mrs. Zhou couldn’t wait to say: “Sister-in-law, we believe you, please marry him!”
They met Yang Fugui, who brought his family back to the village. The woman he married was not only generous and decent, but also very good at getting things done. She arranged everything in an orderly manner. She could even deal with people as stubborn and selfish as Yang Laoer. Yang Laoer also kept praising him for being a capable person.
Ask yourself, they don’t have the ability to find such a capable mother-in-law for their son.
Jiang Ning was happy when he heard this, okay! Both of them are pointing at her to make the decision, so she should just worry about it again!
Time flies, and another year passed in the blink of an eye. All her seeds had a bumper harvest, and the crops and yield data were presented to the emperor immediately. With these crops, the people of Qi could completely get rid of famine, even in poor and remote areas. The people of the land can also live a full life.
Longxin was delighted, and with the perfect completion of the city wall of Quzhou Prefecture, the excavation of the Dragon King Temple made significant progress.
With a wave of his hand, the emperor granted Yang Changlin the title of Dingqubo, which was hereditary. He also gave Jiang Ning another title, which she would arrange.
After Yang Sizhuang found out about it, he said to Jiang Ning without saying a word: "Auntie, this title is for my third brother. He has been helping our brothers make money these years. Only with fame without official status, and with a title by his side, can future generations have something to offer." Guarantee, my son is still young, and with my ability, I can also become a prince and prime minister! "
Yang Sizhuang clenched his fists and his eyes were burning.
Seeing this, Jiang Ning agreed.
Since then, the Yang family has given birth to three knights, and they have become famous all at once! (End of chapter)
