I rewrote family history

Chapter 136
The next few days were peaceful days.

As Xu Cong expected, Liu Dan, the son of the shopkeeper of Xuansheng Rice Shop, was arrested and imprisoned by the police on the grounds that the father and son were selling tobacco cream together.Shopkeeper Liu was hard to get in prison, but Liu Dan was his only son, so the Liu family was anxious like ants on a hot pot, moving boxes of money to Section Chief Zhong’s house, in order to make Liu Dan free. Released.

"Nephew, amazing! Amazing! I really let you know."

"Section Chief Zhong really didn't let go of that bastard."

After learning the news, Er Chaozi congratulated Xu Cong first.

As for the news about Da Chong's gangsters, the county office did not rush to issue a notice, but kept torturing the remaining gangsters, asking where the money they looted before was hidden, and whether there were any remaining absconders and accomplices. Things.As for the specific news, Xu Cong learned about it at Mr. Zhong's wedding banquet on August [-]th after sitting with Section Chief Zhong.

Marrying a concubine is not a crime, just carry it home in a bridal sedan chair late at night.

The reason for holding a feast today is to marry a concubine and to celebrate the housewarming.

Housewarming has two meanings, one is to move, and the other is to get promoted and get rich.

"The promotion of County Magistrate Liu this time is inseparable from the relationship between you, Xu Cong..." Section Chief Zhong held up a glass of wine, touched Xu Cong who was sitting next to him, and said, "County Liu and I will inspect The smoke cream is 43 catties and six taels. Later, he persuaded Nong Sang to follow the investigation on the sale of tobacco cream, and arrested many evil gentry who planted opium. The government appreciated your husband very much, so he paid him a deputy county. Long missing."

"I don't know anything about the government and the county, but it's a good thing for Mr. to be appreciated."

"Besides, Section Chief Zhong is being polite. You are also responsible for checking the smoke paste."

"Maybe I will have a housewarming banquet at your house some other day."

Xu Cong hurriedly picked up the wine glass and touched Section Chief Zhong.He drank the contents of the glass in one gulp, and only opened his mouth after his face turned slightly red.

The reason why Mr. was promoted to deputy county magistrate.

Not just merit, but other factors as well.For example, he is a member of the Progressive Party, and the strength of the Progressive Party in the country goes without saying.

"sure!"

"If I get promoted, I will definitely invite you to the seat."

Chief Zhong laughed a few times.

He also had a hand in the tobacco ointment business in the county.This time he was hit by Liu Changda, if he was dissatisfied, there must be some.However, Liu Changda also sold his face in advance, and did not move him as an official, but only moved some of his subordinates.Compared with the miserable end after losing his official position, he would like to thank Liu Changda for not pursuing it to the end, but only scratching the surface.

Xu Cong echoed a few more words with a smile on his face.

But not long after, a maid walked up to the two of them and interrupted their conversation.

"Master, Madam invites you to the banquet."

She bowed to Xu Cong and said softly.

"My nephew has a close relationship with County Magistrate Liu, which makes me envious."

Chief Zhong took a bite of the fish with his chopsticks and laughed at the sound.

"I'll have a drink with Section Chief Zhong another day..."

"I won't accompany you now."

Xu Cong bowed his hands to Section Chief Zhong, said goodbye to Section Chief Zheng during the banquet, and left the front hall with the maid.

Since the husband wants to marry a concubine, the apartment in the school is definitely not enough.This house was purchased on a temporary basis. It is located near the county office, and it is a good location.The house has a total of three entrances, with carved galleries and painted buildings, and the corridors are unadorned.

Less leaning, the inner hall.

There are only seven or eight courses of food in the inner hall, which is far less rich than the outer banquet.

At the banquet, in addition to Ms. Lu who was the host and Yu Qing, the junior junior brother, there was also a strange young woman.

"Master, Yu Qing..."

After Xu Cong greeted the two of them, he took his seat.

Although he guessed that the other young woman should be the husband's new concubine.But there is no doubt that he will definitely stand on the side of Shi Niang.Even if this little concubine was chosen by my wife...

Therefore, he would not be the first to greet this young woman without the introduction from his wife.

One side is disrespectful, the other side is to please the teacher's wife.

He knows how to choose.

In the old rules, women were not at the table, but the wife and husband had been at the table for a long time, and they had dinner with them as early as three or four years ago.It's just that in front of outsiders, Ms. Lu will still abide by the old rules.

"This is... your husband's new wife, named Suyun."

Ms. Lu pursed her lips slightly, showing a hint of a smile.

But when she spoke, she regained her calm look.

As a big wife, you have to keep your face upright and not be too frivolous.

She thought for a while and said, "Just learn from Yu Qing's name and call her... Aunt Yun."

Aunt is a general term for concubines.

It is very appropriate to call my husband's newly married concubine Aunt Yun.

But no one's name is Suyun, at least they have to add a surname.Xu Cong had some doubts in his heart, but he didn't express it directly.Instead, after hearing Ms. Lu's words, she obediently called "Aunt Yun".

"This is for you... a red envelope."

"Master Xu please accept it."

When Aunt Yun heard the words, she immediately got up quickly.

She took out a red envelope, bowed and handed it to Xu Cong.

Today is her and Liu Changda's happy day, and Xu Cong and Yu Qing are Liu Changda's few nephews, so they should give out red envelopes out of reason.

It's just that Aunt Yun's gesture of distributing red envelopes is too humble.

Xu Congxin said.

"Thank you, Aunt Yun."

He accepted the red envelope and bowed to thank him.

There are many pleats on the two-inch long red envelope red paper, as if it has been held in the hand for a long time.The happy money in the red envelope is not rich.As soon as he touched the coin, he could guess that it was two silver coins with one horn only based on the circumference of the coin.

"You sir went to a banquet to reward the guests."

"This is a dish made by the two of us. It's not as good as the chef hired by Sheng Yunlou, but it's homemade. It's better than warmth. You two have a taste and appreciate it. Aunt Yun will also give it to Mr. , cook for you..., if it doesn't suit your taste..."

Ms. Lu twisted her handkerchief and pointed to several dishes on the table.

When Aunt Yun heard the doctor's words, her face turned pale instantly, and she was a little restless.

These two sentences are too harsh, contrary to the teacher's usual gentle style.

Anyone can hear it.

Xu Cong was fine, he had seen this kind of scene before, and it was the same as the Yamen's killing power stick.After entering the yamen, regardless of whether the defendant or the plaintiff has a complaint or not, they will all be beaten with thirty sticks first.Ms. Lu wanted to take care of the family, so it was inevitable that she would treat Aunt Yun harshly in the first few days.You have to stick to the rules first.Once the rules are established, we will be more gentle,

But... Yu Qing's face was full of astonishment.

"Little brother, you can do what I do later."

Seeing this scene, Xu Cong gestured to Yu Qing with his eyes.

They are both Liu Changda's disciples, and after staying for a long time, it is easy to develop some tacit understanding.

Yu Qing found a backer and quickly nodded in agreement.

"This meatloaf has a dense, smooth, sweet and sour taste, which is different from what my wife used to make. It should be made by Aunt Yun..."

"I think the next time you thicken the meat, you have to..."

"In this way, you can cook meals that are similar to those of my wife. It's not that Aunt Yun's food is not delicious, but after eating the dishes made by my wife for a long time, you will not get used to it if you eat other dishes."

Xu Cong praised Ms. Lu and belittled Aunt Yun in both words and deeds.

This table of food is Ms. Lu's thirty-stick killing blow to Aunt Yun.

Although he didn't know where his wife learned this trick, he could only cooperate.

It is common sense to help relatives but not to reason.

Besides, if he really helped Aunt Yun, he would be "bad" to Aunt Yun.

"Yes Yes Yes……"

"It's the same as Senior Xu said."

"My feeling...is the same, the same as Senior Xu's."

Yu Qing agreed.

He has learned to be smart, and he will probably understand what Xu Cong meant.

Ms. Lu smiled and said nothing, "Don't bother to praise me, the food I cook is not so delicious. Your Aunt Yun's food is also good. When you get used to it, you will praise me. Your husband tried it before. The dishes are ready, I said that the dishes made by your aunt are delicious."

Aunt Yun's face turned even paler, she bit her lip tightly, and dared not speak.

Women's jealousy?
Xu Cong understood.

It's just that it's okay to ask him to praise his wife a few times, but he still hasn't done anything to resolve his jealousy.He couldn't help but think of what happened more than 20 days ago. It would be fine if the husband hadn't promised his wife at that time.There is no need to cause so much trouble.

But he thought about it again, could it really make the husband extinct?
He shook his head.

He looked at the gray-white fox, but the fox fairy also shook his head.

Although it has more than a hundred years of life experience, it has certain attainments in resolving family conflicts.But in this matter, it really can't help it.Just like the marriage between my wife and my husband six years ago, it was difficult for him and Xu Cong to intervene in it.

Time is the running-in agent for all feelings....

There is only time to wait.

It says so.

"Xu Cong, don't talk about it. Ask your little brother to talk about it too, he keeps humming..."

Ms. Lu didn't intend to play tricks on Xu Cong anymore. She turned her eyes to Yu Qing and pointed to a plate of sweet and sour pork ribs on the dining table, "Yu Qing, try this dish, what's wrong?"

What went wrong?

This question is more difficult to answer than the verbal confrontation just now.

Yu Qing turned his helpless gaze to the senior, but soon his gaze was stared back by Ms. Lu.

So he could only murmur: "It tastes delicious when I eat it, and there's nothing wrong with it..."

Aunt Yun's expression relaxed, and she secretly took a breath.

This sweet and sour pork ribs is her dish.

"Suyun, look, Yu Qing said that your cooking is good."

"He has similar tastes to Mister."

Ms. Lu smiled.

"Ma'am, it's nothing, my cooking is not as good as yours..."

Aunt Yun was anxious to defend herself.

"fine."

"As it should be, as it should be."

Ms. Lu patted Aunt Yun's white and tender hand, "From now on, you will be responsible for cooking for the husband."

"I dare not."

Aunt Yun shook her head.

But after this sentence fell, Ms. Lu didn't speak again, it seemed that this topic ended with Aunt Yun's words.The food on the table is gradually becoming scarce.

Nobody touches that plate of sweet and sour pork anymore.

"I'm not feeling well, so I'm leaving temporarily."

With a smile on her face, Ms. Lu got up to say goodbye, left the inner hall, and went to the master bedroom.

There was silence at the table for a while.

Aunt Yun glanced at Yu Qing and Xu Cong, bowed and left without saying a word.

"Senior, what's the matter?"

"Did I make... Mistress angry?"

Although Yu Qing was aware of it, she still couldn't believe it.

He just missed a sentence, so it shouldn't be like this.

"Well..." Xu Cong didn't know what to reply, he sighed, "Master, this person says she doesn't care, but she always cares in her heart. Master is not angry with you, she is angry My own sulking..."

If Yu Qing had said the right thing just now and praised Ms. Lu a little more, she shouldn't be so disappointed.

But unfortunately, Yu Qing is still a bit stupid.

"Yeah, I didn't expect that my husband married another room."

"I feel that the teacher's wife and the husband have always had a good relationship, why... suddenly..."

Yu Qing put down the bamboo chopsticks in his hand, his tone was complicated.

He naturally knew that his husband married Aunt Yun to have a child. This is something everyone knows, and he has no reason not to know.It's just that he thinks that the husband is a new-style person, even if the teacher's wife is not pregnant, he will not marry a young lady.

Only those gentlemen are not monogamous.

"This is my wife's suggestion..."

Xu Cong patted Yu Qing on the shoulder, "I was there."

Mistress asked her husband to remarry to show the outside world that she is not jealous.

So what he said was not a big mouth.

If it is rumored that the husband insisted on marrying and the wife did not stop the success...then the reputations of Ms. Lu and Liu Changda would be tarnished at the same time.One is heartbroken, the other is jealous.

"what?"

"It's my wife who told Mr...., then she..."

Yu Qing was stunned.

But before Xu Cong explained the relationship to Yu Qing, Liu Changda entered the inner hall from the outside, and when he saw that there were only two disciples at the dinner table, he frowned, "Your teacher, where is that woman? "

Suyun was chosen by Ms. Lu, and he was not familiar with it.

"Miss is a little unwell, Aunt Yun... went in to take care of her..."

Xu Cong told a lie.

There are some things that everyone can know well, but they must never be mentioned on the surface.

"Is that so?"

Liu Changda didn't quite believe this sentence.

But he didn't pursue it to the end, he changed the subject, "It's appropriate to call Aunt Yun. She just wants you to meet. By the way, this is my red envelope for you two, take it away."

He took out two red envelopes and handed them to Xu Cong and Yu Qing respectively.

The husband's red envelope is much larger than Aunt Yun's, and the coin's circle is a silver dollar.

Three silver dollars were placed in each red envelope.

"Thank you sir."

"Thank you sir."

Xu Cong and Yu Qing expressed their thanks in unison.

After the wedding banquet, Liu's house seemed deserted.

Presumably it was because the masters had just moved into the new house and did not have time to hire too many servants.

Xu Cong walked out the door, and when he was just thinking about this, he was called in again by the maid he had seen before.This time he knew the maid's name, "Cai'er".Cai'er took him in and claimed that she came from the old house.

"The old house?"

"It's the old house in Los Angeles. The master said that the marriage he betrothed to you has been settled. I guess it is Miss Yu. She is six or seven years younger than you, and the only suitable relative for the master is Yu Yu." Miss……"

Cai'er said with a smile.

The gray-white fox following the two raised his head when he heard the name, and was stunned for a moment.

Yu?
Its old wife's name also has a word Yu.

Is it his old wife?

Looking at Xu Cong who was going further and further away, Xu Er hesitated.

It knows very well at this moment that Xu Cong is in love with a progressive female student, and he has mentioned to it countless times that he wants to marry Chen Xian'an.In this regard, it also silently blessed Xu Cong.

But now... how should it choose?
Whether to let go, or to seize fate, let Xu Cong meet the wife he loves so much.

"What's the matter? Master Hu."

Seeing that the gray and white fox was missing, Xu Cong turned back.

……

PS: Changed it a bit, it was Ms. Yu, and it was written as Ms. Yun by mistake.
