A lucky wife born again from a farm family

Chapter 2266 The fastest engagement

General Wu had his own soldiers. After getting the letter, he immediately asked his soldiers to ride to the Du Chonggou camp.

He also sent someone to tell Mrs. Tan: "Don't worry, Mrs. Tan, the letter will be delivered to Tan Qianhu within three hours."

"Thank you." Mrs. Tan breathed a sigh of relief, then went to find General Lin Qi and told him: "Call all the women from our health center who sell medicinal materials. I have something to say."

"Yes." Mr. Lin Qi was considered Tan Qianhu's confidant. He immediately complied without asking any questions. In less than a quarter of an hour, he led eight women from Yonglin Guard to Mrs. Tan's carriage.

"I've met Madam. What are your orders for Madam to come to us?" Mrs. Lin Qi, who has the highest status, took the lead and asked.

Mrs. Tan: "I called you here for three reasons. First, I don't have tuberculosis. My trachea is blocked by soybeans, so I have been coughing for several months. Mrs. Qin has just helped me take out the soybeans. I am in good health." ”

She spoke for such a long time without coughing or feeling out of breath, which showed that she was really feeling better.

"Congratulations, madam!" Mrs. Lin was overjoyed. Madam is well, and Mrs. Xiao Hu will not dare to be lawless anymore.

Mrs. Tan added: "Secondly, my family has never made any marriage arrangements with the Xiao family. Sister Xiang may marry anyone in her life, but she will never marry into Xiao Baihu's family!"

this?

Everyone present was shocked. Mrs. Tan came to them specifically to say this. It was obvious that she was going to fall out with Xiao Baihu's family!

It seems that they have to make a choice, and they can no longer please both sides.

Madam Lin was the first to express her position: "Madam, don't worry, we are all sensible people. No matter who comes out with some big claims, we will not believe it. We only believe what madam and your Excellency say personally."

Mrs. Tan smiled and said: "I believe Mrs. Lin's words. After all, we have been together for several years. I know your nature clearly and I know it well."

The three women present were heartbroken by what he said, and said hurriedly: "Madam, we are not smart, but we are all obedient people. We will do whatever the madam tells us, and we will never let anyone deceive us!"

Madam is already well, the Xiao family is going to be ruined, and they don't want to be implicated by the Xiao family.

Mrs. Tan nodded: "Since you said so, then I believe you."

After saying these words of comfort and coaxing, he showed them the silver notes obtained from selling the medicinal materials. When their eyes were straightened, they said: "This is the silver tael we got from selling the medicinal materials this time, more than 6,000 taels. It's just that I have to stay in Changliang Guard for a few more days. After my body has completely recovered, I will return to Yonglin Guard and distribute the money to each family... There are still medicinal materials in the fields. You go back first and take good care of the medicinal materials. There will be plenty in the future. Have a good life.”

Then he continued: "The third thing is that the guard station is an important military place. It is a place where military laws and regulations are enforced. No matter who you are, you must abide by the rules. Otherwise, if you are beheaded by military laws, you will bring it upon yourself. You understand. ?"

The voice was not loud, but the words he said were very scary. The woman present hurriedly said: "Listen, I understand, madam, don't worry, we will never do anything to harm the health center!"

Mrs. Tan was satisfied. She took out a purse with a smile and handed it to Mrs. Lin: "You guys came here to sell medicinal materials. Thank you for your hard work. These ten taels of silver are my private money. You can take it and divide it. Go home and have a meal with the children." OK."

After all this beating and kindness, not to mention the women present, even Mr. Lin was convinced.

"Thank you madam!" Mrs. Lin took the money and assured: "Madam is recuperating in Changliang Wei with peace of mind. The guard is under our watch and nothing will happen."

"Yes, yes, yes, madam, don't worry, we will guard the health center. If anyone dares to cause trouble in our health center, we will not spare her!" The other women also said quickly.

Mrs. Tan smiled and nodded, letting them disperse without saying anything, while she asked Xiao Chengju to drive to the guardhouse.

After Xiao Chengju saw Mrs. Tan's methods, he was very impressed and became more determined to marry Tan Xiaoxiang. After finishing the day's work, he went to the big kitchen and bought a chicken and five kilograms of meat and took it home. He said to Mrs. Xiao proudly : "Mom, it's all done. Let's have a good dinner tonight."

Bang, Widow Xiao slapped her on the back and scolded her: "You're crazy, this is a piece of meat from a chicken, you ate it all in one meal, you don't think you are a relative of the emperor!"

Xiao Chengju said: "Mom, my son has met with a great thing today, and his income is as good as gold and silver. You don't have to worry about it, just cook it all!"

Widow Xiao's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she hurriedly asked: "What a treasure, have you found a good business? Or have you hooked up with someone noble?"

"Mom, don't ask. After dinner, my son will naturally say, let's go cook first, and I'll go play with my little brother." Xiao Chengju ran to play with little Qingyun.

Xiao Qingyun was over a year old and could already speak simple words. When he saw Xiao Chengju coming, he shouted happily: "Er quack!"

Xiao Chengju almost fainted, picked him up and said, "It's the second brother, brother, not Gaga. I've taught you many times, but I still can't explain it clearly."

Xiao Qingyun is a good boy. He learns it seriously, but the sound he makes is still: "Two quack, two quack."

"Hey, that's okay, there's no need to learn anymore. Second brother will teach you slowly in the future, so that if you don't quack again, others will think that our family has a bunch of ducks." Xiao Chengju surrendered and went to see Brother Xiaogui again. He sat upright on the kang, facing a book and describing it in a formal manner.

Xiao Chengju was not happy, but trembled. He took away his book and said, "Brother Gui, you are still young. You don't need to practice calligraphy so early. Come and play with your second uncle for a while."

But don't be like your grandfather, who shut yourself up at home without doing any work, studying in front of a window and relying on your wife to support you. It's really terrible.

Brother Xiaogui frowned, but was not angry. Instead, he came over obediently to play with Xiao Chengju.

By the time the rest of the family came back, the food was ready.

"My second brother has made a lot of money. I will add some food to the family tonight. There is chicken and meat. Hurry up and eat with your chopsticks!" Widow Xiao happily greeted the whole family to eat. It was a delicious meal.

But after eating, after hearing what Xiao Chengju said, Widow Xiao exploded. With a bang, she slapped the table and stood up. She pointed at Xiao Chengju and said, "What are you talking about? You want to marry Tan Xiaoxiang. She is a little girl. When she marries you, do you want to kill the whole family?!"

Xiao Chengju: "Mom, what do you mean by killing the whole family? You are superstitious. My cousin has made a rule that if anyone in the guardhouse dares to be superstitious, they will be fined two taels of silver and beaten with twenty boards."

Widow Xiao: "Bah, you stinky boy, you still want to use the rules of the guardhouse to beat me, okay, come and beat me, beat me to death."

She started wailing again: "Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuhow do I have done such a sin? The son I finally raised, who is a smart and capable young man, is going to marry a widower!"

Uncle Qin said: "Okay, it's late at night, what are you howling? If the Bao family hears it, they will laugh at you."

The Bao family's house has been built, and they have moved in and become neighbors with Uncle Qin's family.

Widow Xiao shouted: "When he marries a widower, our family will be laughed at for the rest of our lives. Do I care about being laughed at by the Bao family?!"

Uncle Qin knew Widow Xiao very well and knew that he had to persuade her in the opposite direction, so he said: "Don't cry. The second brother wants to marry Miss Tan, but she may not be able to marry him. Don't forget, she is a young lady from a thousand families. , even if you are guarding the family, the family you are looking at is from a hundred families, and the man you are looking at is also a general... Take a look at our second son, does he have a father from a hundred households, or does he have an official position? Huh? No shit, he’s just a bastard who makes money by relying on Qin’s nephew’s name, he’s not even a businessman!”
