A Good Landlord in the Tang Dynasty: Emperor Yuan Cong

Chapter 172 Close the door

Guangde Square.

In Wu Huaiyi's residence, Samurai Ke was sitting in the hall, proudly talking about today's actions.Wu Liushi complained that he was taking risks even when he was old.

Lao Wu unbuttoned his robe, revealing the iron chain mail inside.

"I earned a soft armor, it's a good deal."

This iron chain armor was prepared for Lao Wu by the superiors, and it was directly rewarded to him afterwards. Lao Wu is very frightened, such an iron chain armor is more expensive than ordinary two-crotch Mingguang.

Huaiyu took over the house in Yongxingfang, said hello to Wei Zheng, then went to Yiguo Gongfu in the same square to say hello to Qin Qiong's wife, Li Xianzhu, and hurried to Huaiyi.

"Aye, are you okay?"

"The Turkic wolf cub didn't even touch me, and he was taken down as soon as he showed his head," Lao Wu pulled Huaiyu to look left and right, "Are you all right, I heard that you were the one who discovered the Turkic wolf cub's actions of?"

"It was the second pole who noticed something was wrong first." He simply told the whole story.

"What? What are you talking about? Your Majesty rewarded you with a large house of eighteen acres in Yongxingfang?" Lao Wu's excited voice raised several degrees.

"Well, it used to be the other courtyard of Lujiang King Li Yuan, and it was well built. There are courtyards, pools, rockeries, and bamboo forests..."

Lao Wu was very excited, "There is such a good thing, then when will we move there?"

Lao Wu was not polite at all, "Dalang's house is too small, not spacious at all." Lao Wu forgot that he was in Longqiao Castle in Sanyuan.

"After cleaning up, we can move there. It will be close to my sister's house, and Chongren and Pingkang Erfang are just south of it."

After coming over to see that Lao Wu was fine, Huaiyu heaved a sigh of relief, and hurried back to Huaiyuan Square to send the moon ball to Fan Xuanfu.

It's just that Rongguo's mansion, which has long been undefended against Wu Huaiyu, unexpectedly shut Huaiyu's door today and refused to let him in.

"I brought a moon ball for Lady Fan, and eunuch Zhang in the palace asked me to take it."

"Leave the slaves to deliver the things to the lady for Erlang, Erlang, please go back." The servant in Tsing Yi blocked him and refused to let him in.

"What?"

"Ma'am is angry." Tsing Yi's servant is not easy to offend Wu Huaiyu, the two are so close, if they are angry today, what if they get back together tomorrow?

"Is she home?"

The servant advised him to go back first and come back tomorrow.

"It's convenient." Huaiyu touched his body, took out two silver coins from the purse, and gave one to each of the two Qingyi servants.

The servants were a little embarrassed, but this silver coin can also be converted into 160 Kaiyuan Tongbao, which is very attractive to them. Moreover, the relationship between Wu Erlang and his wife is also obvious. Everyone dare not really offend him. He turned into Rongguo The son-in-law of the father-in-law, but they are still the slaves of the Fan family.

"Shall we report to Erlang again?"

"I'll go there together."

The servant had no choice but to bring him into the mansion, but at the gate of the backyard, Lady Fan's sword maid stopped him.

The four sword maids stood guarding the gate of the courtyard, one by one, each with a cut horse.

"Where is Madam?" Huaiyu raised the moon ball box in his hand, "Zhang Jian in the palace asked me to bring moon balls for Madam."

A sword girl named Wushuang who Huaiyu also knew helplessly said to him: "Don't you know what Erlang did? The eldest lady is angry, and she ordered no one to go in and disturb her, otherwise we will kill him with a knife and feed it to the dog." go."

Seeing this, Huaiyu had no choice but to hand over the Yuetuan to Wushuang, "Help me hand over the things to the eldest lady, let her calm down, and I will come to apologize to her tomorrow."

backyard.

Wushuang came in with a moon ball box.

Fan Xuanfu was practicing swordsmanship, and took out the seven-foot-long horse-slaying giant sword that she rarely used, and swung it fiercely.

In the last scream, he jumped up high, slashed a dummy, and cut a dummy in half.

"Ma'am, take a break."

"he's gone?"

"Well, I left a box of moon balls."

"Who cares, throw it to the dogs."

"Miss, this was brought from the palace, and it was given to you by Supervisor Zhang for the festival."

"Oh, then stay."

Wushuang fetched the scabbard and helped Fan Xuanfu put away the giant horse sword.

Pan Xuanfu glanced at the Yuetuan box, got up and walked out.

"Where is the lady going? She has already gone back!"

"I'm going out for a walk."

Fan Xuanfu walked out of Rongguo Duke's mansion quickly, but he didn't see a good figure at the door, he gritted his teeth with anger on his jade face.

Glancing at Wu Zhai on the opposite side, he couldn't move his legs for a long time.

During this period of time, I ran to the opposite side every day, and it was the same as my own yard.

"Are you looking for me?"

Suddenly the familiar voice sounded, and Wu Huaiyu jumped off the wall of Fan's courtyard.

"What are you doing climbing my courtyard wall?"

"I wanted to sneak over the wall and look for you in the backyard, but when I saw you coming out in a hurry, I hurried out again." Huaiyu smiled.

"Hmph." Fan Xuanfu turned his head and walked back, Huaiyu stepped forward to stop her, and stretched out his hand to hold her hand, she shook it off, Huaiyu held it again.

"Are you angry with me? I was wrong, I was wrong."

"You're wrong? What's wrong with you?" Fan Xuanfu crossed his waist, and that appearance, when he was angry with Huaiyu's ex-girlfriends, was surprisingly imaginable. Teenagers or seventeen or eighteen years old, whether they are studying or working, they look pretty much the same when they are angry.

Huaiyu has rich experience, and knows that at this time, he needs to be coaxed, so he just needs to be coaxed by the donkey.

"It's all the fault of that An Yuanshou, who made a surprise attack on me. He asked me to do something, and they were all colleagues. I thought I couldn't refuse, so I did it. Later, he asked me to take him to visit my fourth uncle. You I also know that An Yuanshou's family is powerful in Liangzhou, and my fourth uncle has just been released to the governor of Liangzhou..."

At this time, Huaiyu had no choice but to sacrifice An Yuanshou, and put all the responsibility on him. A dead fellow is not a poor daoist.

"The orchid was really stuffed to me suddenly by him, including the small courtyard in Yankangfang, which was also arranged by him. I just took into account the relationship between the Anwu and Wu families, so I couldn't refuse for a while, for fear of leaving my fourth uncle out of town. States matter..."

After hearing his explanation, Fan Xuanfu had a better look on his face, but he was still a little bit reluctant, "Would you like it if he gave it to you?"

"It's nice to say, someone forced it to you, so you stayed there for two days?"

·······
"I was wrong, I should firmly refuse."

"I didn't ask you to refuse. You men are all like this, but why do you keep it from me? Are you planning to keep it from me if it didn't happen today?
If you really like that orchid, if you like something novel, I have no objection. I, Aye, have also accepted four orchids, from Persia, from Fushi, from Kang, and from Shi. You shouldn’t hide it from me. . "

The Fan Xuanfu that was overturned by the jar of vinegar was terrifying, but fortunately Huaiyu put on a good posture, and soon coaxed her to calm down a lot.

Huaiyu gave her enough face, but it made it difficult for her to make trouble anymore.

"I will ask An Yuanshou to take him away tomorrow, and return the house to him."

"do not."

Fan Xuanfu snorted coldly, "You have also taken in the people and the house, and now you have to return it after two days, is there still such a thing to do? Aren't you embarrassing Liangzhou An's face? In the future, you How to get along with An Yuanshou in the same office, your fourth uncle will still have to get along with An's when he goes to Liangzhou."

"Then you say how to deal with it, I will listen to you."

Fan Xuanfu sighed, "What else can I do, bring him back, isn't it just an extra concubine?"

She can tolerate concubines and maidservants, but she cannot allow other housewives outside, even the big women in the Tang Dynasty will not allow their husbands to raise other housewives outside.

Other housewives are not under the control of big women, and even the children they give birth to are illegitimate children, which is absolutely not allowed.

When encountering a jealous and tough old lady, she would even knock on the door, beat up the other housewife first, even cut her hair, and then ask her to drag her away to sell her.

They coaxed Fan Xuanfu into the Wu Zhai together.

"Today, His Majesty rewarded me with a mansion in Yongxingfang, with eighteen acres of land, which was originally Li Yuan's other courtyard..."

"I know that house, and I heard it's well built, with the elegance of Jiangnan." Fan Xuanfu didn't care much about it, it's not unusual for it to be a mere courtyard.

"From now on, we will live in Yongxingfang. Today, Xiao Huangmen and I went to pick up the room. How about we go there tomorrow to clean up and see if there are any things that don't suit your wishes. You can change whatever you want,"

These words made Fan Xuanfu very happy and made her feel like a mistress.

"There are several courtyards in that house, you pick one tomorrow, we will live in whichever one you like, and then I, Aye, Auntie and the others have one courtyard, and my elder brother has one courtyard..."

Fan Xuanfu had no objection to a large family living together. Tang Law's parents did not separate families among brothers, and they would still be punished if they separated.

Unlike the Sui Dynasty, small households were advocated, and it was even forbidden to have relatives of great merit and above in the same household, and the same ancestors had great merit, that is, when they were cousins, they had to separate and set up households, so as to strengthen the control of the household registration population.

"Let's go to my parents' place in Guangdefang to worship the moon and eat moon balls together, shall we?"

There was no one else in the study, so Huaiyu directly took her hand and hugged her, she pushed her a few times, and finally let him hug her, leaning on that broad chest, feeling the beating heart, she was still very angry Only her face was red and her ears were flushed, like a deer bumping wildly.

Yongxingfang.

Next door to Huaiyu's new bestowed house, although Wei Zheng's house is only three acres smaller than Wu Huaiyu's house, it lacks the three-acre pool.Wei Zheng's house was a gift when it was first built, and it basically maintained the appearance when he took over a few years ago, and nothing was built or added.

The house was very dilapidated when it was taken over, and it lacked repairs, and it is getting dilapidated now.

The back garden was originally deserted, but Wei Zheng was asked to grow vegetables and even a piece of grain to make wine.

In Yongxingfang, which is next to the imperial city, the cultivation of grain and vegetables was done by Wei Zheng.

Usually, Wei Zheng likes to drink a small pot of wine at night, and then read and write advices in the study, but today Wei Zheng sat there absent-minded, looking up at the next door from time to time.

Wei Zheng's wife Pei was weaving in the other room. In the past, the chirping of his wife's weaving could calm his mind and even calm his mind.

But today, it made him lose his mind even more.

He simply put down the book, walked out of the study with his hands behind his back, turned around and turned to the courtyard wall adjacent to the next house, and stood there looking at it.

"You've been wandering around here for a long time, what are you doing staring at the adjacent wall?" Mrs. Pei saw her husband's abnormal appearance in the weaving room, so she stopped the loom and came over to ask.

"His Majesty rewarded that house to Wu Erlang."

"But Wu Erlang, the military commander you impeached before?"

"Now Zuo Qianniu is preparing to escort Qianqi envoy," Wei Zheng said.

"Wu Qianniu got a reward, why are you so excited?"

"I impeached him again today. As soon as the bullets were delivered, Wu Huaiyu had to reward the mansion, and he just gave me the one next door..." Wei Zheng looked resentful.

"The saint rewarded our neighbor on purpose?"

"Then what do you think?"

"What is the purpose of this?"

"Isn't that obvious?" Wei Zheng sighed.

"Maybe it's just a coincidence. Tonight's Mid-Autumn Festival, the moon is so bright, you ask Da Lang Erlang and the others to carry the altar table and set it up in the courtyard. I'll go get the altar to worship the moon, and eat moon balls later." Pei said.

Just at this time, a cloud of dark clouds floated in the sky, covering the bright moon, and Wei Zheng looked up at the sky in a daze!
