Volume 2, Chapter 174: Hiring
Wu Wenhui also secretly peeked out through the crack in the door. She saw Dalang dressed in red robes, with resolute eyebrows and heroic appearance, and her heart beat faster.
After this trip to the capital, he became calmer and more mature, and had an indescribable temperament. He was particularly attractive, sassy and handsome.
Dalang followed Dongming Ziyu, practiced the martial arts without falling behind, and drank Lingquan water. His ears and eyes were particularly sensitive. When he saw Wu Wenhui peeking behind the door, he showed a silly smile like a young son-in-law.
Wu Wenhui quickly ducked away, leaning her back against the door panel and pressing her hand on her chest, fearing that her little heart would jump out of her chest!
Grandma Wu was leaning on a cane, smiling with crooked eyebrows, "Quick, get in the house!"
She had been ill for many years and was in bed for ten out of twelve months out of the year. She thought she would be able to survive in a few days, but she didn't expect that her fourth daughter-in-law prescribed medicine for her. After taking it for a few days, she felt completely healed!
Wu Wenyuan and Wu Wenqing enthusiastically asked Dalang and the others to go inside, "Brother Dalang, Brother Erlang, Brother Sanlang, Silang, Wulang, come in quickly and sit down."
Although Wulang couldn't move anything, he also came because he wanted to watch the fun.
It is popular here to post betrothal gifts and dowries. The matchmaker Jiang Hongda unfolded the betrothal gift list in front of the neighbors who came to watch the excitement and read it loudly.
When Wu Wenhui heard about the gold, silver, jade jewelry, and gold and silver satin fabrics, she smiled with satisfaction and happiness. When she heard that there was also a shop in the county town, she became a little excited. She had no expectations for the dowry, but she didn't expect that her future husband's family would
I am expanding my business and can still give so many betrothal gifts.
Finally, Jiang Hongda said: "The old man from my boss said that the land near us is difficult to buy, so I turned it into silver coins. Please don't blame me."
Jiangnan has a large population, and rich households say that they have owners of fertile land, and they have taken in many disaster victims. They are still cultivating wasteland themselves, and they really cannot buy land.
As the eldest son of the eldest son, the betrothal gift cannot be too shabby, otherwise the marriages of the following children will be difficult.
Inspector Wu did not expect that the betrothal gift would be so large, and there was also a jade pendant worth three or four hundred taels in it. He guessed that this must be a reward from the prince. In the future, when the prince ascends the throne, this will be a gift from the emperor and can be used as a family heirloom.
!
This not only shows that the boss values his daughter, but also shows that the boss values Dalang, the eldest son of the eldest son!
Inspector Wu smiled and said: "I understand, I understand. The dowry I gave to my daughter includes a small courtyard with a second entrance and fifty acres of land. I rent it out at ordinary times, which is enough for his wife."
He is a local and has real power as an inspector. He has taken advantage of his position to buy several houses and fields over the years. Although the houses are not big and the fields are only about 200 acres, his children will be able to have enough food and clothing in the future.
Wealth and honor can only be fought for by themselves.
A sumptuous banquet was prepared at noon, and the dowry team stayed to eat.
Shangguan Ruoli was also busy at home. When he knew she was back, patients from the village and the jade mine came. However, it was much easier with Shangguan Ye's help.
At first, those people didn't believe Shangguan Shi, and they were so angry that he wanted to give up his job.
Shangguan Ruoli told them that Shangguan was the doctor she invited, so they reluctantly agreed to let Shangguan treat her.
Shangguan secretly observed Shangguan Ruoli's methods and found that her medical skills were novel and very different from his family's medical skills, even unprecedented.
A miner was sent away. While washing his hands, he asked seemingly unintentionally: "Your medical skills are rare and exquisite. Who did you learn them from?"
Shangguan Ruoli used the all-purpose amnesia joke, "I don't know either. I had a head injury and couldn't remember it. When I wanted to use it, I naturally remembered it."
Shangguan paused in washing his hands and continued washing his hands unhurriedly, "You only thought about medical skills?"
Shangguan Ruoli packed up the things on the table and said, "Yeah, I didn't even remember my name. I can only remember some vague fragments. It seems that I had a good life before, and I had maids in colorful clothes.
"
Shangguan didn't say anything. He picked up the cloth handed to him by Shiro and wiped his hands, then handed it back to Shiro. He looked like he was used to being served by others.
Shangguan Ruoli asked: "When will your family come to pick you up?"
Shangguan's face darkened and he glared: "What? Are you annoying me?"
Shangguan Ruoli said hurriedly: "No, no, it's not too late for me to welcome you! Aren't you worried that Shiro and the others can't take care of you?"
Shangguan said: "They are quite good, studious and smart."
Shangguan Ruoli said: "As long as you don't dislike it."
She couldn't let Shangguan, an old man, live in the hospital by himself, so she asked Silang, Erhu, Gao Liugen and Zhou Lidong to take turns accompanying him, while Sanya and Chen Yueyue brought food, washing and so on.
Anyway, just hand over the six apprentices to Shangguan.
Several disciples heard from her that Shangguan's pulse was much stronger than hers, and they admired him very much and were willing to take care of this kind and capable old man.
Shangguan did have a childish heart, and actually got along with the children, and even went hiking with them to collect herbs. He was content with the situation, and lived a very contented life.
Sanya and Chen Yueyue brought his meals in food boxes from the house. It's hard to say what else, but the soup and water must be spiritual spring water. He kept up with his exercise and drank the spiritual spring water these days. He felt good.
A lot.
On this day, he was walking by the North and South Streams with his hands behind his back. Shiro and Erhu saw sheep entering the wheat field and ran to catch them.
"Doctor!" A voice said from behind.
Shangguan turned around and saw a man with gloomy eyes. He raised his eyebrows and asked, "What's the matter?"
Jiang Haoguang glanced in the direction of Dongzhou's house and asked, "I heard that you are the doctor they hired?"
The Shangguan was noncommittal, "Are you sick?"
"I'm not sick!" Jiang Haoguang's eyes flashed, he lowered his voice and said sullenly: "I'm here to kindly remind you that these people are not good people, they are extremely vicious! They kill people, and they have killed many people!"
Seeing Shiro and Erhu driving the sheep out of the wheat field, they said, "Escape for your life" and ran away.
Silang and Erhu ran back and looked solemn when they saw Jiang Haoguang's figure.
Silang asked Erhu: "Is that that beast Jiang Haoguang?"
Erhu nodded, "It seems so."
Shangguan said: "Does he have a grudge against you?"
Shiro and Erhu both turned to look at him, "What did he tell you?"
Shangguan was the old god and said: "He said, you are all extremely vicious and evil people. You have killed many people and told me to run away quickly."
Shiro sneered coldly, "The people in his family know how to make trouble!"
Shangguan said with great interest: "I knew he was talking nonsense."
Shiro thought that what happened in the past was not a secret. He would know it by asking casually, so he did not hide it from Shangguan Shi. "We have killed many people. There were rogue people who robbed us of food and water on the way to escape the famine, and there was also the prince's eldest son."
While the Young Master and the Second Young Master are recovering from their injuries here, the assassins who came to kill them will come."
Erhu said: "This Jiang Haoguang turns out to be a village chief. He is not a good person in his family. He loves to gossip with his wife. If he wants to bully us, he will even plot against us. The second son of the prince removed him from the title of village chief and also removed him from the title of scholar.
, so they have a big grudge against us!”
Shangguan turned around and walked back, "Tell me carefully."
