Chapter 180: Sharing Difficulties
As the sun yawned as he went to work, the sky cleared. Last night, Fahua Temple suffered a catastrophe, the wall collapsed more than ten places, Wei Dao Hall leaked water and dyed all the murals of Dharma Dongdu, and the pomegranate flowers in full bloom were all blown away by the rain and wind, and they were lying crookedly in the rubble.
The host begged the guests to help the monks of the old Mai Longzhong sort out the remnants, and Yan Xuezhi generously received ten taels of treasure bills and two stones of rice noodles to reward those who contributed their efforts.
In an open space in the Zen courtyard, Yan Jingui stood beside Xu Hao with a grateful look on her bow, and hated her sister-in-law who was badly abused: "Sure enough, he is a wolf-hearted and dog-lunged man, he stole the jewelry box and ran away before dawn, if it is Jin Gui, in case of the incident, he will have no face to live in the world." ”
Xu Hao said strangely: "What about you?" I am not afraid of being arrested by the government. ”
The sister-in-law grinned and explained: "The poor nun is a person outside the party, it is nothing more than a few strokes of the cane, and the biggest punishment is only to return the vulgar within a certain period of time, and it is a big deal to become a monk in a few years." ”
Xu Hao was speechless, and said to Jin Gui: "You have seen all this, you don't respect yourself, people don't value you, and you have to think more about your old father if you don't respect yourself." Well, we'll be indefinite. ”
Yan Jingui said in a whisper: "Childe, what if that person enters the yamen and exposes my family's affairs?" Even if it's all over the mouth, you can't tell the difference! ”
Xu Hao pointed to the dilapidated Daxiong Treasure Hall in the distance: "There are gods three feet above your head." ”
An hour later, the host came over to find Yan Xue and said, "Amitabha, the new Sun Shishi accidentally drowned in the ditch outside. ”
Yan Xue sighed sadly: "God is jealous of talents. When the official came, he had to toss again, asking if he had been killed, and the monks had to be wronged. ”
The host smiled and said, "It's okay, the dead Sun Shizhu is holding a jewelry box, and the little guy said it's your family." Let's follow the old man to find out, is it a thing of love? ”
Yan Xuezhi was shocked and hurriedly called his daughter over and asked, "Have you lost your jewelry?" ”
Yan Jingui said in disbelief: "Last night, because the wall collapsed, the slave family was frightened. I got up and went to the study to make do with the night, I don't know. ”
At that moment, the father and daughter went to the boudoir, and sure enough, the jewelry box on the dresser disappeared, so 'the truth was revealed', Sun Xiucai accidentally fell into the ditch when he stole property at night and ran away, and was drowned.
Not to mention that Yan Jingui was full of questions, Xu Hao waited until he reported to the official to serve as a servant, and explained that he had changed rooms with Sun Xiucai because of the rain, when he shouted loudly, and several people in the next room heard it. They testified for him.
Before leaving, Xu Hao said to Yan Jingui that he would do it for himself in the future, and floated away.
In the flower hall of the second room of the Xu family, Xiao Shi was in a bad mood and breathed a sigh of relief after listening to Li Qiu's talk about the recent situation of the young master after he left home.
Xu Qingtang frowned and was silent, and after Li Qiu left, he slowly picked up the tea, took a sip and praised: "It's so fragrant." ”
Xiao Shi said angrily: "Fragrant fart!" Your son is gone, are you still in the mood to drink tea? ”
Xu Qingtang smiled: "It's a big deal, let's have another one." ”
"You're beautiful." Xiao Shi glanced at her husband and said in a loud voice: "Someone is coming." Go and get all four of them out for me, I lost my son, and they don't have to think about it. ”
In a small courtyard house in Xiaojia Village, Xu Hao looked at the four beautiful girls who were swept out of the house with large bags and small bags with a smile. He said happily: "Blessings and hardships are the same, and now we are friends in trouble, hehe!" ”
Qingwen put her bags on the kang and said cautiously: "I blame you." Now the four of us have no home to return to, and we have become lost dogs. ”
Xu Hao shouted unhappily: "Why do you blame me? If you want to blame that, you have to blame Musk Yue and Xiangyu, not for the two of them. I can be kicked out! ”
Zhulan said speechlessly: "Okay, don't make trouble, hurry up and clean the house, we have to make our own fire to cook and eat in the future." ”
Musk Yue felt uncomfortable, lowered her head and said, "In the future, I will cook the food, and I am to blame." ”
Xu Hao smiled: "You can't stay here, as the saying goes, the husband is not guilty of his crimes." There are you who attract bees and butterflies all day long, and maybe one day you will bring disaster for me, and the four of you will temporarily enter Beijing and stay in Yanwang's Mansion. ”
The four girls were suddenly shocked, and Zhulan said: "Let's not go, this is Xiaojia Village, and it's not an unaccompanied outside?" It should be fine. ”
Xu Hao smiled: "That's what I said, but it's not a big mistake to be careful." Besides, look at your dress, the rouge gouache and jewelry you use, which one is worthless? I raised four ladies from a grass farmer? Doesn't make sense.
If someone covets beauty or money and secretly acts, none of us men and four women have any ability to resist, even if I am alarmist. You don't know what you're worth, I know it, not to mention the valuable belongings in your hands, you can sell them for two or three hundred taels of silver alone, and once someone snatches you away, won't the consequences be unimaginable? ”
No one has anything to say at this moment, after all, no one can afford any mistakes, as the young master said, if someone takes it away, even if it can be rescued in time, the reputation will be completely ruined, and people are terrible.
Looking at their depressed expressions, Xu Hao said: "There is no master in Yanwang Mansion, and you will not be wronged. I arranged for Xiangyu to be a female medical officer who has been practicing medicine for many years, and arranged a shop under the name of Yanwangfu for Qingwen Muskyue; As for Zhulan, whether you choose to marry or be self-reliant, it's up to you. ”
The four maids looked at Xu Hao in shock, they never expected that the ending was unexpected, and it was the most desperate time to usher in this long-awaited moment.
Xu Hao hurriedly said: "Don't come to kneel and kowtow and cry and other vulgar reactions, I don't eat this." ”
Flutter flutter! The maids who were close to the ink broke into tears and laughed, and Zhulan said emotionally: "You can still plan for our sister's future at this juncture, I really don't know how to thank you." ”
Xu Hao put away his smile and said lightly: "No one has to be grateful to me, everything has to be gained and lost." The price of the three of them coming true is that they have to follow me for the rest of their lives, even if I don't want their people, they can't marry in this life, and there is no room for them to refuse. ”
Qingwen suddenly sneered: "Who is rarely married?" In the future, you don't want to touch me, it's a big deal to be an old girl for the rest of your life. ”
Zhulan looked at Musk Yue, who was blushing and didn't speak, and Xiangyu, who looked firm, sighed secretly in her heart, hesitated for a while, and said, "I can't do it, young master let me go home." ”
Xu Hao's reaction to Zhulan is not strange at all, Zhulan has always been dignified and steady, and she is as careful as a hair, and she thinks long-term. Not to mention whether she can get ahead in the future, she has already thought about it countless times, no matter her age or appearance, she can't compare with the young and beautiful Qingwen, rather than staying by her side for the rest of her life and becoming a dispensable role, it is better to leave as soon as possible.
Xu Hao nodded and said, "You go to the Yanwang Mansion with them first, you don't have to rush home to get married, I have my own arrangements for this matter." ”
"Hmm." Zhulan showed a smiling face, she was really afraid that she would be forced to marry as soon as she went home, if she was paired with a vulgar little girl, it was better to stay with the young master forever, it was better than a thousand times a hundred times.
At that moment, Yan Wangfu sent someone to pick them all up, and when she left, Xiangyu said happily that she must study medicine hard; And Musk Yue shyly whispered that as soon as he entered Beijing, she would serve him to bathe at night, and she would no longer twist and pinch, but Qingwen's dead girl pinched Musk Yue's ears angrily and dragged people away.
Xu Hao's words can be regarded as a complete clarification of everyone's future, giving them freedom at the same time, but also restricting their status, unless Mu Ningxue opens her mouth, otherwise they will never expect to become wives and concubines.
Xu Hao's consideration is undoubtedly more long-term, not just to covet their beauty, but to worry about the future of accompanying the king like a tiger, once all the doors are killed! Moreover, eugenics and eugenics will leave more offspring for themselves and teach some knowledge for the future, in the hope of producing great offspring who can change history.
Isn't the biggest task of a traverser to improve genes and pass on knowledge? The efforts of one generation alone are not enough.
In short, men will always find high-sounding excuses for themselves, shamelessly sowing seeds everywhere, and still complacently thinking that it is for the benefit of the common people. In short, this is also one of the rules of survival of the fittest, the strong dominate the female with many children and grandchildren, and the cunning rabbit has three holes.
Wishful thinking does not make everything come true, there will be a lot of uncertainty in the future, and comedy will often turn into tragedy. Xu Hao is psychologically prepared for this, and for those who dare to break free from control, regardless of men and women, the end is very simple.
That night, Xu Hao brought Shi Feng and ordered him to send someone to monitor Ouyang Lun, he had to start in advance and design to eradicate Mu Hui, who betrayed him, otherwise he would be thorned in his back and he wouldn't be able to sleep well at night.
Shi Feng happily accepted this order, and said with rare excitement: "My lord has finally figured it out. When to enter the palace? The adults must first restore the identity of the brocade guard, so that they can clean up the portal without any scruples. ”
Xu Hao smiled: "I have to let Ouyang Lun deal with me first, so that I can have an excuse to deal with him." As for Mu Hui acting as a tiger, as a brocade guard, he colluded with the horse behind his back, and it was natural to execute him at that time. ”
"What the lord said is that his subordinates will go to investigate Ouyang Lun's whereabouts." Shi Feng has always said to do it, and immediately turned around.
Xu Hao looked up at the sky, walked to the stove room and said to the hired cook, Aunt Liu of the neighbor's house: "I'm going to Jiang's house, I don't know when I'll come back, mom go home early." ”
In the steaming semi-open kitchen, the gray-haired Aunt Liu immediately lifted the lid of the steamer, quickly took out a white-flour steamed bun with white flowers and fragrant flowers, wrapped it in zongzi leaves and handed it over, and said: "Take it to eat on the road, and call my boy to come and see the door later, don't come back too late, children are easy to get sleepy." ”
"I see."
Xu Hao came out with a hot steamed bun, devoured it halfway, licked the corners of his mouth unsatisfactorily, and came to Jiang's house with zongzi leaves.
Cui, who was sweeping the floor in the yard, looked at the dumpling leaves he was carrying around, and said strangely: "Why don't you throw it away?" ”
Xu Hao subconsciously said: "It's not good to litter the debris, wait until you turn around and make a batch of garbage bins and put them at the intersection in the village." ”
"Weirdos." Cui stepped forward to take the leaf and threw it into the bamboo basket in the corner.
