Chapter 677: The Events of the Year
In the evening, Xiao Sui'er Rou Niang Huan Niang and others returned from purchasing under the protection of Ma Han Zhang Long and more than a dozen companions, when they learned that Su Jin High School would be Yuan, Xiao Sui'er jumped three feet high, shouting happily, Mrs. Wang smiled on the side, pointed to Xiao Sui'er and said: "This crazy girl is afraid that she doesn't believe that his son-in-law will be admitted." ”
"Congratulations to the slave sisters on their high school reunion, it's okay now, and the Su family should also raise their eyebrows."
Rou Niang and Huanniang happily shed tears to congratulate, they were happy for Su Jin, and at the same time happy for themselves, now the two sisters are already half of the masters in the Su family, although the ceremony has not yet been officially held, but the concubine is always after the wedding, Yan Biyun entered the door, and their status was basically settled.
Su Jin smiled: "What are you crying about, happy is; I didn't test for myself, you have a share. ”
Mrs. Wang stepped forward to comfort Rou Niang and Huanniang and said: "Jin'er has today, you two can be regarded as indispensable, the old body knows that the two of you are very thoughtful in serving him, when you entered my Su family, the old body still had some whispers, but now it seems that the old body is wrong." ”
The Rou Niang sisters hurriedly saluted, and did not dare to say anything, Mrs. Wang wiped the tears of the two sisters with a handkerchief and said with a smile: "After your son-in-law gets married, the old man will tell Biyun that he will choose an auspicious day to marry your two sisters as a side room, although my Su family is not a big family, it can be regarded as a family with a head and face, I am afraid of insulting your sisters, what do you think?" ”
The two sisters' faces turned red and they didn't speak for a long time.
Su Jin smiled: "Don't you want to?" Then I will find a good family for your sisters, keep the scenery of marriage, and worry about food and clothing in the future. ”
Mrs. Wang stretched out her fist and hammered it on Su Jin's body, and scolded: "You bastard, you will bully them, these two sisters are so good, they are a blessing that you have cultivated in your previous life, if you don't want to, my mother accepted them as goddaughters, and she protects them every day." ”
Su Jin grinned and said, "But they don't want to marry me, you see, it's not simple at all." ”
Mrs. Wang chirped: "You think they are all like you, monkey cubs, and their skins are curled." ”
Rou Niang Huanniang sneered, and said in a low voice: "But with the old lady in charge, the slave sisters are born as the Su family and die as the Su family ghosts, if we want to marry someone else, it is better to kill our sisters......"
Mrs. Wang said repeatedly: "Bah, bah, children's words are unscrupulous; What kind of life and death, don't worry, the old man looks at Biyun is not a mean master, as long as you treat her as a lady, she will never be able to tolerate you, rest assured. ”
Su Jin put away the hippie smile and said, "I have something in my heart all the time, I want to ask you, but I am afraid of being abrupt." ”
Rou Niang Huanniang looked at Su Jin and said, "Son, it's okay to ask." ”
Su Jindao: "At the beginning, you said that your father was a small official in Hefei County, but then he offended people for some reason and was sent to prison and sent to Yizhou, right?" ”
Rou Niang and Huanniang were hooked by Su Jin, their faces suddenly became sad, and Mrs. Wang hurriedly said, "Why do you say this?" Now it's my Su family, isn't that good? Forget the past, who hasn't had a bad place? ”
Su Jin said: "No, mother, I've been thinking, although their sisters' mothers are no longer there, but their father is just a Yizhou, not necessarily not alive, last time I copied Zhu Shiyong's dossier in Luzhou Mansion and specially asked, there is a person named Shen Chongshi who used to be a priest in Hefei County, and when he came back, he wanted to ask, but he forgot it when he was busy." ”
Sister Rou Niang opened her eyes wide and said: "Yes, yes, Shen Chongshi that Gongzi said is the father of the slave family, has Gongzi seen that file?" ”
Su Jin nodded and said: "Sure enough, naturally I saw it, and the file said that he embezzled and collected other people's money when collecting taxes, right?" ”
Rou Niang hurriedly said: "Gongzi Mo believes the nonsense on the file, my father will never be that kind of person, my father failed to take the imperial examination in his early years, and his family is quite solid, so he closed his door and was free; Later, his mother persuaded him to find an errand in the yamen rather than to be idle at home; So my father asked someone to get a job as a secretary; The magistrate of Hefei County turned out to be an adult surnamed Ma, and he talked to his father, so he promoted his father to the position of secretary; But I don't know that later, someone suddenly sued the yamen and said that my father took bribes when he collected taxes and reduced taxes privately, so I sent my father to Yizhou. ”
Su Jin frowned and said, "Your family was originally very wealthy, and it stands to reason that your father would not do such a thing at all." ”
Huanniang said: "How could my father do such a thing, he gave food to the poor on weekdays, and taught us sisters to be kind to others since childhood, and not to do things that damage morality and morality, Dad is the best person in the world, how can he do such a thing." ”
Su Jin said: "After your father was assigned to Yizhou, did your sister send someone to find news of him?" ”
Rou Niang burst into tears and said: "At that time, our sisters were helpless, and my mother was seriously ill and spent all her furniture on medical advice, and finally died; I also asked someone who went to Yizhou to do cowhide trading to inquire, but they came back and said that in that place in Yizhou, the mountains are high and the roads are steep, and it is a place where strongmen haunt; The official sent the prisoners to escort the prisoners to Yizhou, and most of them directly lost the prisoners and ran back before entering Shudi, and the prisoners rarely survived, even if they did business, they were all gangs and gangs to follow behind when they were escorting the darts in the dart game, so as to arrive safely; Persuade us to die of this heart, nine times out of ten it is gone. ”
Rou Niang couldn't cry anymore, she couldn't go on.
Huanniang said softly: "Our sisters originally exchanged the only little valuable things in the family for money, and planned to go in person, but when we heard that the strong man was haunted, how dare we two weak women go; Later, my sister asked a lot of people to inquire, and they all said that it was basically unfortunate to send Yizhou, and my sister slowly believed it. ”
Su Jin said: "In other words, your father is not necessarily dead, and the assignment to Yizhou is just a labor, if your father can reach Yizhou, he may survive, and the matter is only three or five years ago, it seems that there is still hope to find it." ”
Rou Niang wiped her tears and asked Su Jin in a daze: "Did the prince say that he wanted to help the slave sisters find their father?" ”
Su Jin nodded and said: "Of course, I was busy with things before, and I didn't care much about your sisters, and since there are relatives alive, even if there is a little opportunity, I have to look for it; But at the moment, I am not in a hurry at this time, I will ask Lord Sansi tomorrow, who is the new prefect of Luzhou, and see if I can transfer the case to re-investigate. ”
Rou Niang and Huan Niang glanced at each other, Ying Ying bowed to Su Jin and thanked him repeatedly.
Su Jin hurriedly helped him up and said: "What should be done, and so polite, we are all a family, we should have done it as soon as possible, but it is me Su Jin who can't stand you." ”
Mrs. Wang said with a smile: "Look, my son is now reasonable, he has really grown up, this is my mother for you to remember, and I will remind you in a few days, so as not to forget you more." ”
Su Jin said: "Mother is right, remember to remind and remind, and ask in many ways." ”
Xiao Sui'er has been pouting for a long time on the side, and after hearing Mrs. Wang's words that she would help Su Jin marry this sister as a side room, Xiao Sui'er felt irritated for no reason; Although he also sympathized with Rou Niang and Huanniang's suffering, he was still pantothenic when he saw that Su Jin was kind to them.
"Old lady, son-in-law, the food is cold, and there are mosquitoes outside, let's go into the house and talk; On such a good day, crying and crying made the little maid feel annoyed. ”
The latter sentence is naturally said to Rou Niang Huanniang, how smart Rou Niang is, how can she not hear the smell of vinegar, she hurriedly stepped forward and hugged Xiao Sui'er's shoulders and said: "I'm sorry Sister Sui'er, it's my sister who is not good, say these on the big day, come, let's have a family banquet together to celebrate the high school meeting of the son, this is the first place in the provincial examination of the whole Song Dynasty, and it is a matter of leaving a name for eternity." ”
Xiao Sui'er ate Rou Niang's set, and as soon as she said two good words, she was suddenly dissatisfied and flew out of the clouds, and said with a smile: "Yes, we have a family banquet tonight, and we have to drink, and we have a drunk party; Did you know? The little maid came out of two jars of Xinghua Village wine from Old Man Yan's mansion, and the altar was opened tonight. ”
Su Jin smiled dumbly and said, "How did it come from it?" It's so ugly. ”
Xiao Sui'er smiled: "Originally, the little maid is going to ask for it brightly, but the little Guizi who watched the wine cellar still refused; So the little maid secretly watched him from the side, but he really drank a good wine, and the little maid appeared on the spot to catch him, and threatened him if he didn't give me two jars of wine to gag my mouth, so he would go and tell Master Yan to go; Hee-hee, laughing to death. ”
Su Jin pinched her nose and said: "The result is naturally that Xiao Guizi can't stand the blackmail of your little Sui'er hero, so he obediently offers two jars of wine and blocks your old mouth, right?" ”
Xiao Sui'er said proudly: "That's nature." ”
Su Jin laughed and said, "Then let's go drink this fake wine tonight, I heard that the fake wine is very fragrant." ”
Xiao Sui'er blinked and said, "Really? ”
Mrs. Wang took Xiao Sui'er lovingly and said, "Girl, don't listen to your son-in-law's nonsense, you have to help him count the money if you are sold by him." ”
Xiao Sui'er pretended to be angry and stomped her feet, and Su Jin had already entered the house with a smile and stride.
