Chapter 872: Three Years of Silence
Yang Fan and Gu Zhuting had finished negotiating, so they rushed to the guest house where the Gu family lived. This guest house is a unique cross-courtyard, can accommodate four or five guests and their entourage, as soon as these people of the ancient family arrive, it becomes a family home, and the whole courtyard is inhabited by the ancient family.
As soon as Yang Fan entered the courtyard, several children who were playing in the courtyard shouted, "Ah Lang is here!" So saying, he rushed to the room to report the news. A middle-aged woman who was drying clothes and sheets in the courtyard saw Yang Fan come in, wiped her hands on her apron, and blessed him.
Yang Fan still had some impressions of this woman, it seemed to be a sister-in-law of Gu Zhuting, so he nodded politely to her, and the old man who had already changed into a new dress in the main room was very cramped and uneasy As soon as he heard that Yang Fan had arrived, he subconsciously wanted to go out, and the second uncle Gu hurriedly reminded: "Soon you are going to be Ah Lang's own parent, don't welcome you out, just wait under the door!" ”
The ancient zhang was busy and zhanzhu, just waiting on the side of the door, Yang Fan stepped into the living room, and when he saw the ancient zhang standing there, he hurriedly arched his hand to him, and said with a smile: "The Lao Zhangren have been waiting for a long time!" ”
In ancient times, this "father-in-law" could be called father-in-law, the elderly, and relatives, as well as the husband of one's own parents or wives, although it was not common. Gu Zhang was preconceived, so he naturally thought that he was the first meaning.
If the ancient father-in-law is married to a daughter, the document has not been decided, and the marriage letter has not been signed, it is inappropriate for the other party to call it so, but there are not so many rules for concubines, and there is no need for three media and six certificates, so it is naturally nothing to call him a father-in-law now.
The ancient mother-in-law also married and accepted the daughter-in-law, but at that time, both parties to the marriage were slaves of the Cui family, so he didn't know what kind of etiquette he should have in the face of Yang Fan. After a little hesitation, he returned the salute. said: "What's the matter with Ah Lang, just pass on the old man's past, how dare you work and respect." ”
Yang Fan said to the ancient uncle and the second uncle: "The two old men are polite, when you get here, don't treat yourself as an outsider, just treat yourself as your own home, feel free, come on, let's sit down and talk!" ”
In Yang Fan's heart, the Gu family was about to get out of slavery. And his second wife, Anu, has always called Gu Zhuting an ancient teacher, so she really doesn't have to be an outsider anymore. What's more, he still wants to recruit the Gu family for his own use, Corporal Lixian should be, but in Gu Zhang's heart, he has confirmed his initial judgment.
Yang Fan walked over first. sat on the main seat, and said to the ancient master: "The ancient girl has already explained to me the intentions of the two old men. Now. Yang has a big thing to do, or he really needs the help of the Gu family, so I am not hypocritical. Let's settle this matter like this. ”
"Oh! Oh! Well, everything is arranged by Ah Lang! ”
The old man licked his lips and subconsciously glanced at his "resourceful" brother.
Yang Fan saw that he wanted to speak and stopped. smiled knowingly: "Tomorrow morning, I will go to the yamen with my father-in-law to handle the matter of denaturalization first." In addition, I plan to buy a house in this alley for my father-in-law's family to live in, and my father-in-law will settle down first. Family members who don't know martial arts can arrange some livelihood within their ability by Clumsy Jing. ”
When the old father-in-law heard that he still wanted to help him buy a house, he said in his heart: "My son-in-law really has a strong family, and he seems to love his daughter very much. I remember that Cui Shilangjun took a concubine last month, and only gave the woman's family twenty yuan, and the price of a house is not cheap, especially in a place like Luoyang. ”
Whether you marry a wife or take a concubine, you have to give a bride price, but marrying a wife is called a dowry, and taking a concubine is called buying a concubine, whether it is the size of the value or the meaning it contains, there is a big difference. With the word "buy", this concubine has become a piece of family property.
If the master is favored and wants to take a concubine as a wife, he is guilty and must be sentenced. If the concubine commits the following crimes and is beaten to death by the housewife in accordance with the family law, it is not a crime to sue the government. If the master dies and the eldest woman is fierce, and then sells the concubine to others, it is also justified, and the family just disposes of their own property.
Therefore, the concubines in the palace can still compete, after all, you are the queen after the queen, the mother is the world, and no one can restrain you, but the concubines of large families, unless the master is particularly strong and the wife is particularly cowardly, otherwise the concubines are playing right and wrong, intrigue, and competing for favor and power, which is simply the YY of the descendants, and it is purely brain-dead to really want to do that.
The reason why the ancient uncle is willing to let his daughter follow Yang Fan is that he is extremely grateful to Yang Fan, and second, Yang Fan's identity and status are matched with his rare youth and appearance, missing this village, his daughter really can't find a more haode store.
The third daughter vowed not to marry since she was a child, and she had already missed the age of normal marriage, and now she wants to find a person who is the right person, and she only has the opportunity to fill the house of others.
As for the master's right to punish the concubine, it is rare for the concubine to commit the following crimes, but it is also extremely rare for the housewife to treat the concubine harshly.
The old man thought: "Alangken gave such a large amount of money, which shows the importance of Xiaoting, and I guess he will not snub her in the future......"
Yang Fan couldn't help but wonder secretly when he saw that he seemed to be thinking, and said in his heart: "It stands to reason that my conditions are already very generous, isn't the old man very satisfied?" No, before I revealed the intention of solicitation, he was willing to use it for me, so how could he ......, ah! Yes, the old man must be worried about future generations. ”
Thinking of this, Yang Fan said again: "The juniors in my father-in-law's family, if you are willing to learn a craft, go back and say that you will be apprenticed to my wife, and she will arrange to be an apprentice first." My father-in-law's family will do things for me, my monthly money will be very rich, even if I take out the rest of the money to invite a western seat for the child, I don't know if my husband is still satisfied? ”
Second Uncle Gu, who was sitting next to him, hurriedly said: "Ah Lang is so kind to my family, he should have died for Ah Lang." Now that Ah Lang has settled my family so well, we are very satisfied, very satisfied! It's just that Xiaoting ......"
Yang Fan said: "In the future, if my father-in-law's family helps Yang, there is no need for the ancient girl to saddle up the horse and the horse, after all, she is a woman, it is better not to show her head or not to show her head." However, I hope that after I buy you a house, Miss Gu will still live in my house, so I won't move there. ”
Yang Fan consulted with Miss Gu when he was in the study, the Yang family now has guards sent by the Step-Heir Hall, but after all, it is not so intimate, and Gu Zhuting's loyalty is not questionable, although his two wives are martial arts, but now that they have children, they still have their own people around to take care of them, so I want to ask Miss Gu to live in Yang Mansion for more time.
But these words have a different meaning in the ears of the second elder of the Gu family, who has long been "misguided". It stands to reason that only the wife will let the wife live in her mother's house before the official marriage, do not see each other, and wait until the official marriage to take over, and the concubine can be taken from the corner gate to the house, and even the main gate can not be walked, so naturally there is no need to be solemn.
In his second elder's heart, Yang Fan is now a well-known figure in the officialdom, so naturally he can't break the rules, so as not to be impeached. I remember hearing someone say when I was in Cui's Mansion that a senior member of the court was impeached by the imperial history for losing the dignity of the court because he bought a piece of Hu cake and stood on the side of the road to eat it in the early court, thus ruining his future.
Although Gu Zhang was a little lost, but the world was like this, he had no choice but to say: "That's that, it should be so, everything will be done according to Ah Lang's idea, and the old man is not an unreasonable person." ”
Yang Fan nodded and said happily: "Then let's do it, early tomorrow morning, I will go to the county government with my father-in-law." Say goodbye first! ”
Gu Zhang, Gu Second Uncle and Gu Zhuting sent Yang Fan outside the hospital, just returned to the hall, the door curtain was lifted, and the old wife, who had been standing there listening to the news, walked out of the back room, hugged her daughter, and said with joy: "My good girl, who told you that your life is not good, you are reincarnated in my house, your life has always been a piece of my mother's heart!" It's okay now, it's okay now, General Yang is an officer in a high position, but he is young and handsome, his daughter has a lifelong support, and his mother can close her eyes even if she dies soon! ”
The old man couldn't hide the joy in his heart, but he deliberately straightened his face, glared at his mother-in-law, and reprimanded: "What a great joy, what are you crying about!" ”
Gu Zhuting looked at her father and mother, and said with a blank face: "Daddy, Auntie, you ...... What are you talking about? ”
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
Yang Fan settled the matter on the Gu family's side, returned to the study, and asked the little servant Ah Niu to summon Ren Wei.
After a while, Ren Wei came to the study, Yang Fan asked Ah Niu to go to the outside of the study to guard the door, and ordered Ren Wei: "Immediately upload my order and order the 'Jihetang' to move into Luoyang!" ”
Ren Wei was startled, and thought that he had heard it wrong, so he couldn't help but lose his voice and said, "What? ”
Frankly speaking, Yang Fan's takeover of the 'Succession Hall' was only known to some people at the highest level and some of the children who were at the core of the major families, which could be described as extremely calm. Since Yang Fan became the sect master, most of the various requests and reports sent in the 'Succession Hall' were just reading, never expressing his own opinions, and more often, he just approved them according to the suggestions of the stewards.
Yang Fan's approach was very different from the original Jiang Gongzi's arbitrariness, and the people in the 'Succession Hall' were about to regard this sect master as a symbolic leader, and they were about to ignore his actual existence. However, it was such a sect master who suddenly made the decision to "move the capital" without consulting anyone, not even with the Seven Great Families, how could Ren Wei not be surprised.
Yang Fan played with the jade lion paperweight in his hand, and said lightly: "I said, move the 'Succession Hall' from Chang'an to Luoyang, and handle it immediately!" After speaking, Yang Fan raised his eyelids and glanced at Ren Wei, his eyes were as sharp as a knife, and there was a feeling of not being angry and arrogant.
Ren Wei's heart sank, and he hurriedly arched his hand, and replied in a deep voice: "Obey!" ”
Ren Wei turned around and left hurriedly, and a sentence involuntarily floated in his heart: "Three years without a sound, a blockbuster!" ”
