urge Zhao to marry

Chapter 344
Sheng Wu felt that Ai Qing was young and vigorous. If he knew that the girl he liked became his fiancée, he would either go crazy or want to snatch her.

Unexpectedly, their affairs were no longer a secret, it was just that my sister didn't know about it.

Then he can only settle for the next best thing and pull out the second Miss Qin family as a shield.

In addition, he always felt that he had heard the name Qin Mu somewhere, but unfortunately he couldn't remember where he heard it.

However, when he saw Qin Mu later, he remembered that he had seen it in the wanted documents sent by the court.

When Qin Jiashu was having dinner with his family, he heard his mother mention the news that the general's mansion was going to hold a flower banquet.

In the north, the Ai family is equivalent to the existence of the Tu Emperor.

There is a flower viewing banquet, of course they have to join in.

Mu Zhaozhao then asked her husband: "Cousin, I heard that the general is still training at the mansion, tell me, should we take this opportunity to mention grandfather?"

The Meng family has practiced medicine for several generations, and they have a good reputation in the capital for their rejuvenation.

However, now that they have come to Fucheng, this word of mouth has not been spread yet. In addition, there are many medical clinics and doctors in Fucheng, and the Meng family's medical clinic does not have a good reputation now.

But earlier, when the woman in charge of Ai Mansion came to deliver the invitation, she deliberately said a lot about the situation of Ai Mansion, which made Mu Zhaozhao understand a lot about the situation of Ai Mansion.

After hearing this, Qin Mu didn't answer her words, but looked at the three children and asked, "What do you think?"

Seeing that the two older sisters were silent, Qin Yichen touched his nose, a little hesitant: "Is it okay to mention it? Anyway, our grandfather's medical skills are not blown out."

Qin Jiashu also nodded: "Ah Chen is right, I can indeed recommend you."

"Yes, grandparents are good at taking care of their bodies." Qin Qiluo glanced at her sister: "You can also take this opportunity to see what kind of family the Ai family is like."

When Qin Jiashu heard her sister's words, she knew that she was worried that her marriage with Ai Qing would not go well, so she smiled and told her about meeting Sheng Wu during the day.

Finally, he said calmly: "Sheng Wu's eldest sister is the general's wife, but the most important thing is General Ai and the old general's side."

"However, it doesn't matter if they don't agree, Ai Mansion is not a quiet place now."

Qin Yichen almost jumped up after hearing this, and stared at his two older sisters with a depressed expression: "Eldest sister, second sister, you didn't call me after such a big incident?"

Once again, I regretted that I had missed cleaning up the dude by mistake, and I had lost the lively scene of watching the eldest sister teach others with my own eyes.

Besides, is he a man now?Naturally, the two sisters must be protected.

Who would have thought that such a big thing would happen in the short time it took to inquire about the news?
Mu Zhaozhao also looked at the two daughters speechlessly: "Your hearts are too big. After such a big incident, you can still go shopping outside and don't come back until dark. You are really amazing. gone."

Qin Jiashu pretended that he didn't realize that his mother was making fun of him and his sister, but nodded solemnly: "Isn't that right? I also think I'm very powerful. In just a short while, I offended all the relatives of Ai's family."

Not to mention that Sheng Wu is the direct brother of the general's wife, the Sheng family itself is a powerful general.

Also, Ai Qing's stepmother's natal nephew is Zhao Yutang, the eldest son of the Zhao family, and Wu Fan is the great-grandson of Ai's old general's sister.

These were also when they went to eat, and they gave the little girl a little more money, and they got out of their family background.

Qin Mu didn't take it seriously: "I don't blame Jiashu for doing it, they were the ones who committed the crime first, and they just need to deal with it."

Then he comforted his wife: "Zhao Zhao, I think our daughter did the right thing, otherwise the Ai family wouldn't send the post."

He hummed again with dissatisfaction: "The Ai family is indeed not a good family. There are too many relatives and friends, and it is troublesome to deal with."

Anyway, in his heart, his children are the best, and they can't do wrong, and the wrong one must be someone else.

Mu Zhaozhao gave her husband a sideways glance. She was also used to her husband's protective nature, so she just stared at the eldest daughter, gnashing her teeth and said, "Qin Jiashu, when you go to the banquet in a few days, even if you are pretending, pretend to be a big lady." She looks like a lady, remember?"

Along the way, the eldest daughter was wild. Whether she found bandits or encountered troubles, she always rushed to the front with people, maybe she forgot that she was a girl, right?

Qin Jiashu responded obediently: "Yes, mother, don't worry, I will be obedient."

Otherwise, she was worried that her mother would become a Tang monk, and she would talk endlessly.

After hearing this, Qin Mu decided in his heart that he would try to persuade the eldest daughter later, but he couldn't just bear with it, and if he came across someone who deserved a beating, he wouldn't be polite.

Qin Qiluo took advantage of the situation to change the subject: "Father, is everything going well with you?"

"It's not bad. The people below are not idiots, and they didn't trip me up." Qin Mu smiled at them with a relaxed face: "I'll get to know them soon."

After all, Ai Qing is not stupid, if she is not sure, she will not let Qin Mu be the magistrate.

The fellow magistrates and the judges below are all Ai Qing's people. They were all county magistrates who were familiar with local government affairs before, and now they are quick to get started after taking office.

They are also smart people, so they naturally know what to do. This time, it was also because the former accomplices and judges were imprisoned, so it was their turn to take the opportunity to get up. A family rises and falls, and the replacement is also very fast.

They just squeezed people out, so they naturally wanted to do something.

Now under the order of General Ai to help the new magistrate, of course he dare not neglect.

And now that the seals of the government office have been handed over to Qin Mu, and Ai Qing's letter was forged, Qin Mu is already considered the magistrate.

After Qin Mu finished speaking, Mu Zhaozhao and his children heaved a sigh of relief.

Winter snow comes quietly, and the world is covered with silver.

In this snowy day, Qin Jiashu and his sisters didn't go out.

However, the news of the new magistrate's appointment in the government office quickly spread, and the heavy snow couldn't stop many people from posting posts, and those who gave gifts wanted to visit.

Fortunately, Mu Zhaozhao was the director of the housekeeper in the capital before, and he was used to going out to socialize, so he was able to deal with these invitations quickly.

See what should be seen, and reject what should be rejected.

When meeting guests, he would bring his two daughters with him.

After all, daughters are going to marry sooner or later, so socializing is indispensable.

Soon it will be the second day of November, which is also the day for banquets at the General's Mansion.

Qin Jiashu was woken up by the maid, opened his eyes to look at the sky, yawned, went to the dressing room and came out, then sat in front of the dressing table and asked lazily, "Has the snow stopped outside?"

"Are you still here?" Qingshan pulled her hair nimbly: "It's colder here than the capital, Miss, can you put on a fox fur later? That's warmer."

Qin Jiashu responded, and said with some regret: "This weather is very suitable for lying at home, reading scripts, and eating hot pot."

Instead of going out to socialize, you have to be cautious at all times, lest you say the wrong thing, and you have to prevent others from tripping you up.

Qingshan knows her daughter's temperament, so she is kind, but she is not lacking in means, and she is even more intelligent.

The only regret is that the lady is lazy and unwilling to socialize.

Therefore, she was not surprised that the young lady would complain that she had to go out in such weather, so she could only ask: "I prepared soy milk, eggs, crystal dumplings in the morning, as well as almond tea, meat pie, Roujiamo, spicy soup and donkey Meat fire, miss, what do you want to eat?"

She also knows the young lady very well, and knows that using delicious food can divert the young lady's dissatisfaction about going out for a banquet.

Sure enough, Qin Jiashu didn't complain anymore: "I just need hot pepper soup and donkey meat on fire."

It is said that "dragon meat in the sky, donkey meat in the world".

Qin Jiashu was very satisfied with the delicious food here. The donkey meat was not overcooked, the color was fresh and tender, the fragrance was long, and it was tender and delicious.

Moreover, donkey meat can nourish blood, nourish qi and invigorate deficiency, so it is considered her favorite food for the time being.

Due to the different climate and geography, it is not suitable for the growth of grains here. Therefore, ordinary people mainly use flour ingredients of various thicknesses, such as steaming, grilling and frying. .

Among them, coarse grain steamed buns are the main ones.

However, the people who can make a living in Fucheng will have better living conditions, and there will be a lot of delicious food.

Anyway, for the past few days, Qin Jiashu came to breakfast in different ways every morning.

She was a little looking forward to whether there would be any particularly delicious dishes at the banquet in the General's Mansion.

Even Qin Mu was going to visit General Ai today, so when he came to the General's mansion, he took his son to the male guest's side, and the Qin family sisters accompanied their mother to the female family's side.

It has to be said that the General's Mansion is indeed very big. They walked along the corridor to the main courtyard and found that the pavilions and pavilions were similar to the buildings in the capital, but most of them were covered by thick snow at the moment, so they couldn't see anything special scenery.

The female relatives here are all in the five yards of the second entrance courtyard.

The inside is warm and cozy. The wives and ladies of each family are all dressed in red and green, and even the dressing up is the same as that of the female family members in the capital.

After they entered, they took off their cloaks and handed them over to Qingshan and the others who came with them, before going to greet the general's wife.

In front of Sheng Shi, there were naturally many female relatives surrounding her to flatter her.

When the servant girl brought Mrs. Qin over, she naturally turned her eyes on them.

The moment she saw Mu Zhaozhao, she was surprised. If she hadn't confirmed that Mr. Qin didn't remarry, she would have suspected that the beautiful wife in front of her was a second wife.

Especially those beautiful eyes like Wang Qingquan, even if she is a woman, she still wants to look at her more, it really makes people turn their eyes away.

To be honest, she wanted to ask Mrs. Qin how she took care of herself. She felt that standing with her, she didn't look like a generation behind, but like a sister.

And that eldest lady, with oval face, bright eyes and white teeth, willow-leaf unlined eyebrows, and vivid phoenix eyes, she is indeed a beauty.

There is another young lady, even though she is wearing a lot of clothes in winter, she still looks graceful and charming, her skin is as smooth as fat, especially her almond eyes, with flowing eyes, which has a certain charm.

At this moment, she understood in her heart why her brother-in-law and brother who had seen all kinds of flowers looked at their sisters differently.

Sheng got up to support Mu Zhaozhao who was going to salute, and said politely: "Madam Qin, please sit down quickly."

In terms of rank, Ai Yu is a first-rank general, and Sheng is also a first-rank general's wife.

And the magistrate is a fourth rank, and Mu Zhaozhao is also the wife of the fourth rank, so it is also appropriate to salute the Sheng family.

But now that Mrs. Sheng has supported her, Mu Zhaozhao couldn't insist on saluting, so he could only thank her with a smile and sit on the official hat chair next to him.

Qin Jiashu and his younger sister stepped forward to salute: "Madam, Ann!"

Sheng smiled and waved: "This is really a pair of sisters who are as dazzling as pearls, don't be too polite, come here and let me take a closer look."

From a closer look, it is still a natural beauty.

She also gave a meeting gift, both sisters are a pair of jade bracelets.

The lady next to her also flattered with a smile: "No, Mrs. Qin is very lucky to have such a beautiful girl."

Someone also asked with a smile if Mu Zhaozhao's two daughters were engaged.

This is not the capital city, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, and the magistrate is also high and powerful, so they naturally want to take the opportunity to build relationships.

And this, the marriage of children, is naturally the best way to marry.

Mu Zhaozhao could hardly hold back the smile on his face, and felt that the ladies here were a little too enthusiastic, as if he wished that the marriage contract could be concluded immediately.

There are also wives who are eager to ask her when she will hold a flower banquet, and they can also bring their children to join in the fun.

Mu Zhaozhao could only fool around vaguely, saying that she would post a post to entertain them later.

Sheng Shi has also been paying attention to Mu Zhaozhao, and seeing that she is able to deal with the greetings of several wives with ease, she knows in her heart that this lady should come from a wealthy family, otherwise she would not be so calm.

At this moment, she really doesn't know Qin Mu's details.

However, she still didn't want Ai Qing to marry Miss Qin's family, so she smiled: "Let's talk here, let the ladies go to the Nuan Pavilion in the east wing to enjoy the flowers first?"

After finishing speaking, he waved to Zhao Yanran again, and said with a gentle smile, "Yanran, take care of all the ladies for me."

Zhao Yanran is the niece and granddaughter of her mother-in-law's family, and she knew in her heart that both the Zhao family and Zhao Yanran wanted to have a marriage contract with Ai Qing.

The Sheng family also deliberately asked the maid to 'accidentally' mention Miss Qin in front of Zhao Yanran, just to use Zhao Yanran's hand to make Miss Qin retreat.

In this way, she can also kill two birds with one stone, and if she solves two at once, her cousin's chances of winning will be a little better.

Of course, she also felt in her heart that the young lady from their Sheng family was more expensive than those from the Qin family and Zhao family, and she was more suitable for Ai Qing.

Only in this way, even if you are infertile, you don't have to worry.

Zhao Yanran was entrusted with a heavy responsibility by the Sheng family, she was very beautiful in her heart, and she smiled very flamboyantly: "Don't worry, sister-in-law, I will definitely take good care of you ladies."

After speaking, I couldn't help but look at Sister Qin Jiashu more.

She thought of what she had overheard the servant girl saying before, and she felt very uneasy, so she decided to act first.

Now is the opportunity, because the old lady is the daughter of their Zhao family, and she often comes to the General's Mansion, and is very familiar with the General's Mansion.

When Qin Jiashu and his sister came, they had decided that it was better for them to keep a low profile when they first arrived, so they went with the crowd and went to the warm pavilion.

There are three interconnected rooms in the east wing, and there are many potted flowers in it.

However, compared with the flower banquet in the capital, it seemed a lot inferior, so the two sisters were not interested, so they found a seat to sit down.
