When a charming guest comes to the East bed, he is naturally very precious. When Qin mubai arrived at Wu's house, they were all overjoyed.
In a few days, it will be new year's day. Now the best wine in the world is being renovated, and the business is suspended. The people of Wu family have been busy for a year, and they all have a rest. It's quite pleasant to have a banquet with good food and wine.
This year, the Wu brothers also saw the power of Qin mubai and Wu Meiniang, and finally accepted their fate. Now, Wu Meiniang is the head of the Wu family. Qin mubai, the son-in-law who has never been through the door, is also the most important. Although his surname is Qin, he seems to be the head of the Wu family.
Qin mubai took the initiative to visit Wu Meiniang. Naturally, Wu Meiniang was very happy. She was also very happy with her mother Yang. As soon as he sat down, Yang was going to cook himself and said he would make some special snacks for him.
Now Qin mubai feels that the Wu family is really rich. Even if it's an ordinary maidservant, the new clothes on New Year's day are also of high value. There is no shortage of delicacies and delicacies at home. Half a house is enough to hold a few cars. Just for the new year's Eve, there are thousands of dollars in cash, packed in several big boxes, wrapped in red cloth bags.
It can be imagined that it is not easy for Wu Meiniang to be the family. This little girl is really capable.
"Hee hee, mubai, how did you come to my house today?" Wu Meiniang said to him with a smile.
"It's almost new year. Should I come and have a look? " Qin mubai also laughed, "it's right to visit my future mother-in-law and brother-in-law."
"Oh, as soon as you say it, I know you must have something to help me with." Wu Meiniang said, "come on, what's the matter?"
"It's not about Xue Rengui?" Qin mubai smiles and tells her the truth.
Wu Meiniang pondered for a moment and said, "a few days ago, after the first liquor in the world was out of business. Liu had nothing to do for the time being, and the couple had no place to live. I saw their poor husband and wife, so I invited them to live in my house, but they refused to send money and goods. I have no choice but to let them. It's said that they rented an old folk house in Quchi square in the south of the city to live there for the time being. Liu's stomach is already very big. It's estimated that he will have to give birth in another month or two. I don't know what the current situation is. It's just the right day. Let's go and have a look. "
"Not bad."
Soon afterwards, Qin mubai enjoyed the snacks made by Yang, chatted with the people of Wu family for a while, and then drove to the south of the city with Wu Meiniang.
No matter how prosperous the place is, there are also dark corners; in the world, there will always be differences between the poor and the rich. Quchi square in the south of the city is synonymous with Chang'an slum. At the beginning, the demon son took a group of little girls to rent there. Because it's cheaper to rent there.
This made Qin mubai think of today's "ant tribe". In Chang'an, not all the people can wander comfortably. Perhaps renting an inn here for half a month is enough to live a comfortable life for a little rich in ordinary counties.
The carriage went slowly towards the south of the city under the snow.
Wu Meiniang put her hand under Qin mubai's cloak and warmed herself in his armpit. She said, "why did Li Ke suddenly think of such a noise? Didn't he always claim that he had nothing to do with the world but wanted to live in peace? It seems that he is ambitious after all! "
Qin mubai said with a smile: "people have desires. They have different ideas in different periods. Before that, Li Ke was denounced and impeached. Of course, he just wanted to be a prince of peace. Now he has turned over, and it is reasonable to expect that he can make a great success one day. This trip to Jiangzhou made him feel the anguish of being short of major generals. If Quan Wanji and I hadn't helped him, he would have capsized. Taking advantage of the opportunity to recruit talents, the emperor would not say anything. In fact, the main purpose of his doing this is to target Xue Rengui. "
"Yes, I can see it." Wu Meiniang nodded and said, "Li Ke is a person who has no airs when he is a virtuous official. The more such a person is, the greater his ambition must be. Otherwise, why should he be like this? Isn't it easier for him to live a leisurely life by himself? I guess he missed you before and didn't want to make the same mistake again. Therefore, he made a great effort to get Xue Rengui. Mubai, do your best to help li ke Is it because you care about him? "
"Watch him what?" Qin mubai asked with a smile.
"You know what you're asking!" Wu Meiniang said, "now the court is fighting for the crown prince and the king of Wei. The king of Wu has been out of sight for a long time and will be almost forgotten. Will he always keep a low profile and wait to reap profits? "
Qin mubai stopped for a moment and said with a smile, "Meiniang, you are very clear about these things, as if you are also very interested?"
"Ha ha, there is no shortage of people who have a long tongue in places like wine shops. From national affairs to family affairs, you can know what you want to know." Wu Meiniang said, "I'm also influenced. I care about it unconsciously. Anyway, my mubai is a member of the Bureau. Can I not care more about him? "
"Your mubai?" Qin Mu Bai smiles."It's not mine. Whose else?" Wu Meiniang glared at him and pinched his elbow. "No matter how many women you have, I say you are mine, that's mine!"
"Ha ha!" Qin mubai laughed, "OK, it's yours. In other words, Li Ke is definitely not a person who is content with loneliness. Now he's very tight lipped, and at most he just says to me that he wants to strengthen some forces in order to protect himself. But it's just to bridge the barriers. I can clearly feel his ambition, or ambition. "
"I know that you and Li Ke have a very close personal relationship, but people all over the world know that Li Ke is just a common prince. It's not his turn to fight for the crown prince." Wu Meiniang said.
"Oh Qin Mu Bai laughed, "aren't you and I also common sons? What's the status of you and me in the Qin and Wu families? "
"That's different!" Wu Meiniang said, "they are royal, and there is a powerful figure like the emperor on them!"
Qin mubai stopped for a moment and said, "let's talk about it later. I'm not determined to help Li Ke fight for the crown. Before that, the emperor asked me to help Li Ke more. It can be seen that in the eyes of the emperor, my position is still with him, just that he sent me. No matter how the princes fight with each other, I will try my best to maintain the emperor's trust in me. "
"Yes! No matter which prince you follow. That's no better than following the emperor! As for the future, we'll talk about it later! " Wu Meiniang said, "now the emperor trusts you. He treats you as half a son."
Qin Mu Bai smiles: "are you jealous?"
"No!" Wu Meiniang said angrily, "I'm learning from Princess Gaoyang. Everything is for your own good. In fact, when I see you and Princess Gaoyang together, I really can't cross this barrier. But on second thought, she is the emperor's favorite princess. If you can marry her, it will be of great benefit to you. What's more, she is infatuated with you. Ah I have to aggrieve myself and slowly adapt and accept it! "
Qin mubai said with a meaningful smile: "it seems that Princess Gaoyang told you a lot that day! You so clever person, still can be talked about by her that silly wench? "
"What, no!" Wu Meiniang angrily glared at Qin mubai, "don't try to talk from my mouth! I said I would not tell you if I didn't tell you! "
"General, master, here we are." The cart stopped, said the coachman outside.
They got out of the car and saw a small farm house in the thick snow.
"Xue Rengui and his wife live on that side." The driver pointed to the road ahead.
"OK, let's go there." Qin mubai and Wu Meiniang move forward hand in hand. Their temperament and luxurious dress are a little out of place with the surrounding scenes.
Most of the people who live here are peddlers and pawns who pull carts and horses in Chang'an, or farmers who work as tenants for rich households in Chang'an. They live on a small income. In the low and dilapidated houses, people in shabby clothes can often be seen passing by. The black smoke from old firewood comes out on the roof of every house, and people cough violently from time to time.
Xue Rengui's yard is covered with snow. There is a row of footprints on it, which seems to be going out. The house was quiet and there were no fireworks.
They pulled the fence open and went in. The snow creaked. Then they heard a woman's voice: "are you back, Rengui? I'm so hungry. Do you have anything to eat? "
"It's sister Liu!" Wu Meiniang frowned. Quickly step forward into the room, "it's me."
"Ah, master!" There was a lot of surprise in Liu's voice.
In order to avoid suspicion, Qin mubai didn't enter the house and waited outside.
"What's the matter with you, sister-in-law? Do you look so pale? Where's elder brother Xue? " Wu Meiniang asked anxiously.
"I I'm fine. " Liu's some shame of low head, murmur a way.
"I just heard you said you were hungry?" Wu Meiniang looked around. There were two empty bowls on the table in the room. Only a little of the soup left was frozen into ice. She couldn't help getting angry. "Where's brother Xue? Why not take care of you at home! That's true
"No Don't blame him. " Liu lowered his head and began to cry.
"Sister-in-law, what's the matter? Tell me quickly!" Wu Meiniang sat beside her and asked patiently.
Liu sobbed a few times, and finally said slowly -
"we moved out of the world's best wine a few days ago and rented here. Although a little poor, it was safe. Life can go on. But three days ago, I accidentally moved the fetal gas, so I had to go to the doctor for treatment. At least I protected the baby in the fetus. But I can't even afford to pay for the house. I can't open the pot at home any more. Yuanben Rengui plans to go hunting in Zhongnan mountain for a while, but a heavy snow has blocked the mountain road. Where can he get the prey? Today, there is no cooking at home, so... "
"So what?" Wu Meiniang asked anxiously.
"So So Rengui took his halberd and went out to sell it. " Liu said. He wiped his tears sadly. "This painting halberd is like the lifeblood of benevolence. No matter how poor or bitter he is, he doesn't want to give up. I didn't expect to... ""Ah Wu Meiniang sighed again anxiously and angrily, "you should tell me when you are in trouble! Elder brother Xue is also really, die want face live suffer! Didn't I invite you to my house not long ago? He is afraid of disturbing life and death, I want to send some money and food, he is not willing to. Now it's better That's all. No more! First of all, sister Liu. You come back with me now. I'll ask my maid wenpo to take care of you. This is about to give birth, even if not for their own sake, but also for the sake of the child ah! As for elder brother Xue, I can't help him this time! He will suffer and let himself go. He deserves to starve to death! "
"Wuwu..." Liu began to cry, holding his big belly, he was about to get out of bed and kowtow to Wu Meiniang, "master, we are really the great benefactor of mother and son!"
Qin mubai was annoyed when he heard that outside the door. He came into the room and said, "sister-in-law, please don't do that. Just go back to the mansion with Meiniang! No matter how hard it is, boy. As for elder brother Xue, if he dares to be stubborn again this time, I will send a hundred and eighty soldiers to tie him up and see what he has to say! "
Liu said with a smile: "general Qin is here too I'm sorry to make the general laugh. Rengui is just like that. Just as the owner said, I can't persuade him to come over if he wants to face up and suffer. If the general wants to tie it up, he has such a bad temper. There's no need to be polite to him. "
"Well, don't say it. My sister-in-law, clean up and come with me." Wu Meiniang said.
"Well!" Liu's way, "benevolence will be inserted in the west market auction halberd, the general should be easy to find."
Before long, Wu Meiniang carefully helped Liu out of the car and went to Wu's house first. Qin mubai went to the West City alone. He rented a carriage on the way. The more he thought about it, the more angry he was.
"Xue Rengui. This pedantic guy who wants to lose face and live to suffer! Don't be too polite to him Thinking of this, Qin mubai said to the coachman, "go to the Xuanwu Gate of the imperial palace!"
"Mr. Lang, is the palace the place where villains wait for their horses to go?"
"If you want to go, you can go. Don't talk nonsense!"
Soon after, a dilapidated civil carriage opened the gate of Xuanwu Gate and drove straight into Baiqi camp.
It was the annual leave of the imperial court, and most of the government offices had taken it. Only a few officials were left on duty. Qin mubai, a Baiqi emissary who had not left his post, went into the government office and called Pang Fei directly. He asked him to order 20 Baiqi soldiers to go out on business with him.
Pang Fei was so surprised that he thought Qin mubai was going out to fight, but he didn't dare to ask any more. So he immediately called twenty of the most powerful and trustworthy confidants, all armed with swords and armour, and put on their horses to be punished.
Qin mubai doesn't talk nonsense either. He tells Pang Fei to go to the west city to find a man named Xue Rengui who is putting in a bidding halberd. Don't talk nonsense to him. He just sets up a criminal name to tie him up and throw him to Wu Mei's mother's house. Then there's nothing to do with them. By the way, if the halberd is sold, it will be redeemed at ten times the cost. In addition, you should not disclose your identity.
Pang Fei didn't know why, but it was Qin mubai's order. Without saying a word, he went out with a group of fierce cavalry.
Qin mubai was still sitting in the broken carriage and walked to Wu Mei's mother's house in a hurry. He thought: Xue Rengui, you are good at martial arts, but do you dare to fight with the army in Chang'an? The more polite you are, the more mischievous you are. Tiger doesn't get angry, you think I'm Hello keity!
Half an hour later, a group of fierce soldiers broke into Wu's house, which scared the whole house of Wu's family. The brothers of the Wu family rushed to meet him and said in a panic, "what's the matter, general? What's the matter, general
Pang Fei strides in. Hu Hu Sheng Wei looked at the Wu brothers for a few eyes, waved his hand, and several sergeants behind him pushed a colorful man in, then turned and left.
"Eh, general What do you mean Wu yuanshuang looks up and down at Xue Rengui and doesn't know him.
"You ask Ben, who will Ben ask?" Pang Fei didn't look good and said, "I'll be ordered to do things. It's done. I don't care. Anyway, you'll take good care of this man. If you get lost, you'll be responsible for it! "
"Ah..." The brothers of Wu family and the servants and maids were all silly - it's too obscure!
At this time, Wu Meiniang came out and said from a distance, "Pang Fei, you are so powerful!"
"Ah? The teacher's wife... " Pang Fei was slightly surprised and thought in secret. His tight face changed into a smile and went forward to bow his hands: "I've seen the Master Wu!"
Wu Meiniang glances at Xue Rengui. Xue Rengui quickly lowers her head and turns over. She blushes with embarrassment.
Wu Meiniang stopped laughing and said, "it's done. Then go back! "
"Yes." Pang Fei smiles, looks around and says in a low voice: "madam, can I ask you something?"
"Don't yell. Who is your mistress?" Wu Meiniang lightly scolds a way, "what matter, say?"
"I heard that my mentor will be transferred from the capital to work in Yuanren county. Many of our old brothers who have followed him all the way are reluctant to leave him and want to go with him Pangfei said pitifully, "especially me. I'll follow him. If he's not in Baiqi, what am I doing here? Please say something nice for me, and let my teacher take me away? "Wu Meiniang could not help but chuckle: "you are not a child who has not been weaned. Do you want to follow me?"
Pang Fei's embarrassed face turned red, and he giggled: "if you want to talk about it, that's what you say. Anyway, I just want to follow my teacher all the way. I'll go wherever he goes. "
"Yes, I'll try." Wu Meiniang nodded and said with a smile, "but I don't think he can decide this kind of thing. Don't give me too much hope. You go back first, this man, just give it to me. "
"Thank you, madam. I'll go!"
Pang Fei left with a team of powerful and valiant armored horses.
Wu brothers wiped a cold sweat and breathed a long breath. In the heart puzzled secret way: This is sings which with which?
Seeing Wu Meiniang at this time, Xue Rengui mostly understood what was going on. He had to turn his head in shame and was embarrassed to look Wu Meiniang in the eye.
Wu Meiniang dispersed the crowd, went to him and said, "brother Xue, don't blame us. It's just that you're too unkind, you know? "
Xue Rengui did not speak, but sighed.
Wu Meiniang looked at the rope tied to him, and then at Fang Tianhua halberd thrown aside in the snow. He said: "I once heard mubai say that if a man is able to cultivate himself and govern his family, he must be able to do well in his family. He also said, "if you don't sweep a house, sweep the whole world?" Although you are talented in martial arts, you can't even take care of your wife and children. You still have to face up and live to refuse the kindness of your friends. It's no wonder that mubai is really annoyed. He's rude to you! Such a comparison will count, Mu Bai Cai is really a bloody and courageous man. You It's affectation, it's self infliction! It's been eight years of bad luck for sister Liu to follow you
