Chapter 1146: Mother-in-law
What Cao Xiang and Ma Jun can think of, Mrs. Ning can naturally think of. It's just that when she saw Shuangxi Pei, she thought of the New Cobalt Lu clan that she swallowed, and she was in a mood and didn't think much about it.
It wasn't until the guests were sent away that Mrs. Ning's mood calmed down, and she whispered to herself: "No wonder the grandmother's makeup box was empty, it turned out to be a supplement for Tian's." β
Thinking about it, with the strong surname of the eldest grandmother, even if she wants to entrust the Gu Cao family, it is impossible for the Tian family to send people under the fence without any reliance.
After the death of the Niu Co Lu clan, he had no children and no daughters, and after the funeral, his mother's family came to recover the dowry of the Niu Co Lu clan.
Since there are dowry bills at both ends, there is nothing to dispute about.
A small village and two shops that the New Cobalt Lu clan married were taken back by her mother's family; When it came to the dowry box jewelry, there was a big problem.
There were only a few pieces of silver jewelry left in the makeup box, and the other jewels were gone.
If it weren't for the testimony of several of the New Cobalt Clan, Mrs. Ning would not have been to the New Co Lu Clan's house, nor would she have sent the maid over. The Niu Colu family is going to sue Mrs. Ning for embezzling her daughter-in-law's property.
Because Ning Chun's father and son were detained in prison for a while before they died, Mrs. Ning's side, as well as the Niu Co Lu family, thought that the Niu Co Lu family's jewelry was spent on the yamen.
Mrs. Ning was a widow who had lost her husband and child, and the Niu Co Lu family acted kindly, so they made sure that it was not Mrs. Ning who swallowed those things, so they did not investigate the matter in detail. Otherwise, it's like they're bullying the widow's portal.
Yongliang went out to see off guests, the fourth grandmother was young and shy, and it was not easy to see outsiders, so she heard that the guests were gone, so she came to the upper room.
Seeing that Mrs. Ning was silent, the fourth grandmother approached and said, "The guest didn't sit for a long time, madam, what do you think?" β
Mrs. Ning raised her head and said, "Indeed, the uncle's bloodline is true, if you see it, you will know why I said that." β
The fourth grandmother is Mrs. Ning's niece, and she often came to Ning's house when she was a child, Ning Chun's father has several sons, but there is no daughter, and she also has a lot of love for this niece.
When the Ning family had an accident, the fourth grandmother was already seven or eight years old, and she remembered Ning Chun's appearance, so Mrs. Ning said so.
The fourth grandmother listened and said: "Since it is the bloodline of the Ning family, it is not good to fall outside again, and if you take it back as soon as possible, you can add some popularity to the family." β
Mrs. Ning just glanced at the fourth grandmother and said, "Don't worry, wait and see." β
As he spoke, Yongliang had already sent the guest back.
Seeing that his expression was as usual, Mrs. Ning was quite relieved, and her face was much softer, and said, "Brother Liang, what do you think of those two children?" β
Yongliang said: "In the end, it was raised by the Bofu, and the two nephews are sensible and polite, which makes people very happy to see it." Looking at the style of talking and acting, there are really some shadows of Uncle Cao. β
After Cao Hao returned to the capital from Yizhou, he visited Mrs. Ning at Ning's house, and Yongliang saw Cao Hao at that time.
Although he had only met once, he was very impressed because Cao Hao gave him the golden toad he had always been delicate as a meeting gift.
When he grows up, Cao Hao is already a Jingtang.
One of the two is the Ministry of Industry, the other is the Ministry of Households, except for a glance from a distance during the court, the two did not have the opportunity to meet.
Yongliang did not have the help of his family, even if he spent money to make up for the lack of the Ministry of Industry, he was bullied a lot in the yamen because he had no backer.
At that time, he also thought that the Hubu Auxiliary Hall was the old Ning family, and he didn't know if he would ask for shelter if he went to the door. But just think about it, if you only see the last side, you will climb to the door, and the threshold of the Cao family will not be broken.
Now Uncle Cao has been promoted to the governor of Zhili and has been crowned the secretary of the military department, which is a figure he needs to look up to.
Although he was surprised to hear about the existence of the twins, after learning about their relationship with the Cao family, Yongliang was left with only a snicker.
He didn't worry about the problem of family property like Mrs. Ning and the fourth grandmother.
After all, Zuo Zhu and Zuo Cheng are not Mrs. Ning's own grandsons, and Mrs. Ning has no reason to be wronged by this side and hurt that side.
As for the Cao family, there is no need to worry.
After several years of training in officialdom, he knows that the more powerful a person is, the more he cherishes his feathers.
Although he is not the son of his own clan, he is the heir who has visited the ancestral hall and is on the family tree, the son of Mrs. Ning, and the head of the Ning family. Even if there are more Zuozhu brothers now, as long as he doesn't make big mistakes, the position of the head of the family is still stable.
Mrs. Ning heard that Yongliang had changed her title, and said with a smile: "It's more sensible than their old man, when the uncle was so old, he was already a naughty and angry old man who changed the law." β
"There is one thing that needs to be discussed with my wife, since the two nephews mentioned that they want to go to the gate to worship, I will take a month's leave in the yamen to accompany them, and it is not good to let the two nephews go by themselves." Yongliang hits the railroad while it's hot.
Mrs. Ning listened, thought for a while, and said, "If it's cheap to ask for leave, just go with it, it's not good to ignore it, it will be too unkind." Between your uncles and nephews, get along more with each other, and it will also be a ......."
In their opinion, the Zuozhu brothers must recognize their ancestors and return to their ancestors, and they will always return to this house in the future, and then get married and have children and move out to live another life.
The mother and son glanced at each other, and they tacitly did not mention the "death" of Shuangxi Pei and the New Cobalt Lu clan.
After all, the brothers Zuo Zhu and Zuo Cheng are juniors, even if they come back to live here, there is no room for them to speak in front of their elders.
Tian's identity is okay if he is an aunt, but it's just a matter of cleaning up a small yard and dialing two little maids; If Tian returned to live as a "house-filling grandmother", she would become the eldest sister-in-law of Yongliang and his wife.
If the three of them, mother and son, really had any ideas, they would have room to speak...... Mrs. Ning and Yongliang thought about it beautifully, but they didn't know that the Zuozhu brothers had no idea of moving back at all.
After coming out of the Ning family, the two brothers didn't speak, but they felt heavy in their hearts. They were also old enough to marry, not children, and knew what the dowry meant to a woman.
How bold is it for my grandmother to be able to give all the jewelry to my biological mother? You must know that when she arranged for someone to send Tian out of Beijing, she was not sure whether Tian was pregnant or not.
Such a mother-in-law is indeed amiable and respectable.
"It is a blessing for your brothers to have such a mother-in-law, and you must not be ungrateful." When he arrived at the intersection of the East Forty Road, Ma Jun parted ways with the others, and said to Zuo Zhu and Zuo Cheng before leaving.
Zuo Zhu and Zuo Cheng listened to it, and hurriedly agreed in unison.
Ma Jun rode his horse and went far away, and Cao Xiang took a few teenagers back to Cao's mansion.
For the Ning family and his party, the two brothers Zuo Zhu and Zuo Cheng have their own understandings.
Mrs. Ning seems to be enthusiastic, but she lacks sincerity; Yongliang looks honest and honest, and it can be seen that he is free in his heart when he speaks and does things.
In order to save trouble in the future, it is better to stay away from their family in the future...... * After a few days, Qingyuan City, the Governor's Palace.
Cao Hao had already received the letter from Cao Xiang and Ma Jun, and knew everything about their going to Ning's house.
Regarding the reaction of Mrs. Ning and Yongliang, Cao Hao was very satisfied.
Immediately, the letter from the brothers Zuo Zhu and Zuo Cheng also arrived, in addition to mentioning the matter of going to Ning's house, but also mentioning the matter of worshipping outside the gate. It is already better with Yongliang, and it will be set off in a few days.
For this reason, they couldn't rush back to Qingyuan before Cao Haosheng's death, and their brother also prepared a birthday gift in advance, so that the messenger brought it with him.
Some time ago, Cao Hao and Nalan Fusen inspected in Nanzhili.
There are only a few green battalions in Nanzhili, and there are no dangerous checkpoints, and the number of registered soldiers is also limited.
Those who have a shortage of military attachΓ©s are mostly looking forward to coming down to drink the blood of the soldiers, and these green camps have few heads and lack of oil and water, so no one cares about these places.
In this way, the green battalions of Nanzhili followed Cao Hao's words like a book from heaven, and "simple soldiers", "recruited soldiers", and "elite soldiers" were not arranged.
Seeing the state of these soldiers, Nalan Fusen only admired Cao Hao in his heart.
He was also worried that there were many people on the South Zhili side and the North Zhili side who were like Yang Feng Yin Violators. In that case, even if Cao Hao has the courage to replace these people, he will have to raise them for a while.
After returning from Nanzhili, Nalan Fusen began to write long folds.
Beizhili has two thorns, with Cao Hao's identity, if he comes forward, even if he is disposed of, he must prevent others from making trouble.
Nalan Fusen came with the emperor's order and had the right to perform secretly, so he took this opportunity to help Cao Hao and kick these two thorns.
Cao Hao also didn't come out of the study, he was also writing excerpts, which were densely packed with his experience of the hard work of the green camp in the past few months.
It wasn't until the Beijing gave gifts to the Xindi newspaper that Cao Hao and Nalan Fusen wrote the excerpt and sealed it so that they could be sent back to the capital.
In the Di newspaper, the first article was the news that the "Hangzhou General" who dismissed Nian Qianyao was demoted to an idle Zhangjing.
In just half a year's effort, from the northwest to Jiangsu and Zhejiang, from the general of Fuyuan, the governor of the three provinces, to the idle Zhangjing. When the official position is pushed to the end, maybe it is the time to be arrested and questioned.
"It's really grinding to cut meat with such a blunt knife, so it's better to give it a good time." Naranfusen said with a gloomy face.
Nian Qianyao's wife is Nalan Fusen's half-sister, and Nian Qianyao is his brother-in-law.
Nalan Fusen didn't treat Cao Hao as an outsider, and even said this "big disrespectful" words, Cao Hao naturally didn't hide it from him, and said: "I'm afraid it's coming soon, there is news from Beijing, and a few governors have 'exposed' Nian Qianyao's bad deeds......"
Nalan Fusen also heard some rumors on his side, sighed, and said, "It must be the ones recommended and promoted by Nian Qianyao...... How did he pick the people, it was obviously a favor to these people, no one was grateful, but they all developed enemies......"
* Beijing, New Year's House.
Although it is the height of summer, the empty mansion is quiet and cold. Although there are still nearly 100 slaves and maids in the house, everyone is cautious, and no one dares to make noise.
The old lady sat on the kang with glasses on the bridge of her nose and a newspaper of the imperial court in her hand.
He looked at it for a while before he sighed, put down the newspaper, and picked up the letter from his eldest son.
Nian Xiyao saw that the situation was getting more and more severe, and his second brother was completely rejected by the emperor, which could not be solved by dismissing the official.
He was afraid and wanted to fold up to "tell the sick and tell the official", and he was afraid that it would be self-defeating, so he wrote to Beijing to ask his old father to help him get an idea......*
