Chapter 254: Receiving the wind and washing away the dust

"Oh? Have you heard about this too?"

Hearing Xu Wenzhao talk about people stumbling upon Minglan, Xu Wenhui seemed slightly surprised. However, thinking of what he had promised Minglan before, Xu Wenhui shook his head and asked with regret:
"What a pity. I have promised your sister-in-law not to interfere in the affairs of this family. Let her solve this matter by herself!"

In fact, Xu Wenhui has no doubts about Minglan's ability. Since Minglan doesn't want him to interfere, he will give Minglan time!
Unless Minglan really can't solve it, he will take action again!
Xu Wenzhao probably didn't expect that Xu Wenhui would 'ignore it'. He was slightly startled when he heard this. Xu Wenhui's reaction was a little beyond his expectation!

However, upon hearing that it was Minglan's request, Xu Wenzhao suddenly became a little enlightened after thinking about it for a moment.
"I see! Since it's my sister-in-law's request, brother, you really shouldn't interfere too much! Do you want me to ask Xinyi to help my sister-in-law later?"

He also knew a little about Minglan's situation at home. His wife was also newlywed, so she had some understanding of Minglan's situation! I’m afraid I don’t want to trouble my husband!

Xu Wenhui looked at Minglan and Zheng Xinyi chatting and laughing in front of him, but shook his head, feeling that he would not interfere and just follow Minglan's wishes, so he said:
"Forget it, let them discuss it themselves, let's just forget about it!" After saying that, Xu Wenhui paused and said:
"Grandma, ask your wife to pay attention. If anything happens, let me know according to the situation!"

Although my grandmother's attitude towards Minglan has been okay recently, there is no guarantee that it is because there are many things at home these days and the old lady has not spared time, so it is better to be safe and ask her younger siblings to help and pay attention!

The two of them basically go together to greet the old lady, and they can take care of each other if anything happens! There are some things that Minglan is not comfortable saying, but Zheng Xinyi can tell herself in private!
Xu Wenzhao immediately understood what Xu Wenhui meant, and immediately nodded in agreement after hearing the words.
"Don't worry, brother, I will tell Xinyi! Xinyi handles things properly, there will be no problem!"

"Well! That's good! Thank you for your hard work, brothers and sisters!"

Seeing Xu Wenzhao agree, Xu Wenhui agreed with satisfaction, thought for a while and said:
"I received a letter from the northwest a few days ago. I heard that General Zheng Wenbo did a good job? With the favor of the officials, it seems that Zheng Wenbo will be promoted to a high position when he comes back!
The younger siblings are both outstanding characters. Your son's marriage to the Zheng family is a bargain! "

Zheng Wenbo is Zheng Xinyi's brother, and Zheng Wenbo, the general from Yuzhou who is supporting the northwest, is also among them!
Although there is no fighting in the west this time, there are still a lot of tentative frictions. Zheng Bowen is a direct descendant of Emperor Zhao Zongquan. As long as he has merit, he will definitely take the opportunity to be promoted!
"Hehe, it's all thanks to my eldest brother's blessing. If it weren't for my eldest brother, how would Xinyi marry me?"

Obviously Xu Wenzhao himself was very satisfied with the marriage. Thinking of his uncle's meritorious service, Xu Wenzhang quickly thanked him and said:
"Earlier, my uncle wrote a letter specifically asking me to thank you, brother. He said that without the cooperation of the border soldiers, he might not be able to make meritorious deeds! When he comes back, he will definitely thank you deeply!"

The Xu family has a strong influence in the northwest. Zheng Bowen is now directly married to the Xu family. Naturally, he can gain a lot of advantages invisibly and make things convenient!

"No need, I don't think I'm an outsider when it comes to it. It seems quite natural to thank him for coming and going!"

Xu Wenhui smiled and waved his hand. Many people went to Yuzhou this time, but only Zheng Bowen made great achievements. The most important thing is his ability! Although the Xu family has some help, it is secondary!
Xu Wenzhao saw that Xu Wenhui didn't care, so he didn't say anything. He just said thank you and waited for Zheng Bowen to come back. When he thought about things in the west, he thought of Xu Wenhui's good friend Gu Tingye.

Xu Wenzhao knew that Gu Tingye had always been on good terms with Xu Wenhui, so he turned the topic to Gu Tingye and said:

"Brother, I heard that something happened to Brother Gu in the west this time?"

Hearing Xu Wenzhao mention Gu Tingye, Xu Wenhui shook his head secretly. He didn't know whether Gu Tingye was having a bad time or just bad luck!
This guy probably wants to revitalize his family as soon as possible, so he is eager to make contributions! In a small encounter, we first won a big victory, but when we chased the enemy's defeated army, we were a little too far away. As a result, we were ambushed and lost!
Fortunately, he fought his way out of the tight siege, otherwise his life would have been lost!

Although it’s not a big deal, it’s still a lesson!

"It's not bad. He learned a little lesson. I hope he can behave more calmly after this experience! By the way, did Zheng Bowen tell you this?"

Xu Wenhui asked casually, but Xu Wenzhao shook his head and denied:
"No, the news has spread all over Bianjing City, saying that Brother Gu suffered a defeat in the northwest, and that the officials are going to punish him! I also want to ask you how to help Brother Gu to plead guilty!"

"Nonsense, why do officials care about such a trivial matter..." Victory and defeat are common things for military officers, not to mention such a small setback, it is not a defeat! Just go back and make meritorious deeds to get it back! But at this point, Xu Wenhui noticed something was wrong, turned to look at Xu Wenzhao and asked in surprise:

"What are you talking about? It's spread all over Bianjing City?"

"Yes, isn't it? Yesterday Xinyi's sister-in-law came over to visit and said so!"

"That's it..." It seems that this news is spreading among the women. It is probably the little Qin who is acting like a monster again! It’s really endlessly tenacious! Don’t let go of such a small thing!

Seeing Xu Wenhui thoughtfully, Xu Wenzhao asked curiously:
"What's wrong, brother, is there anything wrong?"

"No, I was thinking about other things!" Xu Wenhui denied it flatly when he heard this. Xu Wenhui didn't even bother to say more about these terrible things!

When Xu Wenzhao saw this, he didn't ask any questions. Minglan and Zheng Xinyi were waving in front of them, so they looked at each other and walked over with a smile!
……

On the second day,
Minglan got up early and prepared the Songjiang seabass that both her grandmother and brother loved to eat! Put it in the food box!

Then the couple had a simple breakfast together, and then went directly to the Sheng family to pay a visit, saying that they were going to greet Uncle Wang and his family!
In fact, Minglan couldn't wait to see her relatives! After all, it’s not easy to go back to your parents’ home once you get married. It would be best if you can go earlier and spend more time with your loved ones!
When the couple arrived at the gate of Sheng's house, Yuan Wenshao and Sheng Hualan just got off the carriage. Sheng Hualan probably had the same mentality! Although she has been married for many years, she doesn’t have many opportunities to return to her parents’ home!
The four of them walked in together, laughing and talking!

The two sisters Minglan and Sheng Hualan had not seen each other for a long time, so they walked together to talk. Mainly Sheng Hualan asked Minglan how her married life was!
Xu Wenhui and Yuan Wenshao were walking behind!

The Yuan family and the Gu family have a good relationship. Yuan Wenshao obviously also heard about Gu Tingye's defeat on the battlefield.
I can't help but be angry that he won't fight, and I feel sorry for Gu Tingye!
Originally, if it had been Guang Xu Wenhui and Minglan, they might have gone to the Shou'an Hall to visit the old lady as soon as they arrived at the Sheng family!
But because of the relationship between Sheng Hualan and Yuan Wenshao,

The four of them went to Wei Ruixuan first!
The four of them are all juniors, so they came early today.
Only members of the Sheng family are present in Wei Ruixuan, and the Kang family and Wang family haven't come yet! A few people chatted for a while,

We just went together to the Shou'an Hall to pay homage to the old lady!
Minglan and Sheng Hualan were both raised by an old lady. When their two granddaughters came back together, the old lady was naturally very happy. The smile on her face was as innocent as a child's!
Everyone chatted for a while,

The Wang family and the Kang family arrived late,

Because the Wang family is also related to Mrs. Wang. The old lady is quite senior and older!
So everyone, including Mrs. Sheng, went out to greet him in person!

Visitors from the Wang family include Mrs. Wang, Uncle Wang, Wang Yan and his wife, and their son Wang You!

There is only one person in the Kang family, Kang's aunt Wang Ruo!

None of her husband Kang Haifeng, son Kang Jin, daughter Kang Yuner and son-in-law Qi Heng came!

After everyone chatted for a while, they went to the main hall of the Sheng family together!

That old lady Wang is very good at talking.

He looks like a good boy, very kind and amiable!
If Xu Wenhui hadn't already known this person's true nature, he might have gotten around to it, and she was an old woman whose scheming skills didn't belong to the Xiao Qin family!
The rest of the Wang family behaved mediocrely and somewhat humbly!
On the other hand, Aunt Kang probably felt that the Wang family had a backer in Beijing, and she felt a little proud of her ability to act and speak with flying spirits. If the old lady of the Wang family hadn't winked from time to time, this woman's tail would probably have been raised to the sky!
However, this woman couldn't hold it back. She took the opportunity while eating, mentioned Mo Lan angrily, and smiled at Sheng Hong:

"Oh, brother-in-law! I'd say you're so cruel! That child, Fourth Girl, is a bit more unruly and her actions are not safe enough! But haven't you been locked up for so long? You can really make her Becoming a nun? That’s easy to say but not easy to hear!
Anyway, no one is talking about her now. I think we might as well put her back! Tsk tsk tsk... He is also a poor child! "

Aunt Kang said this just to stimulate the Sheng family. After all, the Sheng family lived a better life than their Kang family, so she felt uncomfortable!

Today she originally wanted Qi Heng and Kang Yun'er to come with them so that they could show off in front of the Sheng family and the Wang family. After all, speaking strictly according to the title, Qi Heng was the legitimate son of the Duke and was considered more precious than those present. Who would have thought that those two This little brat didn't show any dignity and didn't come at all. Now that all the sons-in-law of the Sheng family are here, she naturally feels uncomfortable! Take out the loser Mo Lan and say! Get some confidence back!
Sheng Hong felt very annoyed when he heard that his aunt mentioned Mo Lan in front of everyone! This stinky bitch, your Kang Yun'er took advantage of her and is still acting like a good girl! Who is this to satirize? What a rude shrew!

However, Sheng Hong's city was deep in the city, and although he felt disgusted, he couldn't get along with this sister-in-law in front of his old mother-in-law, so it was better not to start a quarrel directly! How unsightly is that?
So I squeezed into a bird's nest, smiled awkwardly, and pretended I didn't hear my aunt's ridicule and didn't respond. Instead, I picked up my chopsticks and gestured to Xu Wenhui and others, and greeted warmly:

"Come on, come on, you guys, hurry up and eat the vegetables! Your mother started preparing this very early in the morning, but don't let the eldest wife down!"

He only greeted Xu Wenhui and others and ignored the Wang family. Obviously Sheng Hong also had opinions on the Wang family!
Wang Ruofu's face didn't look good either. Although she also hated Mo Lan, Aunt Kang brought up Mo Lan's bad things in front of the two sons-in-law. As a member of the Sheng family now, she was also embarrassed!

So this time it was rare to stand on the same front as Sheng Hong, and agreed to let Xu Wenhui and others eat food.

"Haha, give it a try and see if you like it, especially the sixth uncle. If you don't, you have to be patient!"

"Yes, father-in-law, thank you for your hard work, mother-in-law!"

"Thank you dad, thank you mom!"

Xu Wenhui and the other juniors were naturally very considerate of Mr. Sheng Hong and Wang Ruofu, and they all agreed and picked up their chopsticks to eat the food! Hearing Wang Ruofu specifically mentioning himself, Xu Wenhui smiled with satisfaction while eating and praised:

"Mother-in-law is so humble. How can this not be to your taste? It's even more delicious than what I had at the Hou Mansion! Look at this dish, not only does it taste unique, it also looks elegant! I think Minglan's cooking is delicious. , I rely on my mother-in-law’s sincere teachings! Come on, in order to thank my mother-in-law for raising such a good daughter-in-law for me, I give you a toast!”

As he spoke, Xu Wenhui raised his glass of wine and paid tribute to Wang Ruofu, his mother-in-law. Anyway, he knew that Wang Ruofu didn't need praise, so just say nice things!

Minglan was also shrewd and immediately raised her glass in agreement.

"Minglan was sick and weak when she was young. If it weren't for the grace of her aunt, she probably wouldn't have grown up, let alone standing here now! Minglan's success today is all thanks to the eldest lady, and I also give a toast to the eldest lady!"

Hearing Xu Wenhui and Minglan praise themselves so highly in front of everyone, Wang Ruofu was immediately happy from ear to ear!
"Oh, oh, this...this...you children! Oh...aren't these all our own family!"

After Xu Wenhui and Minglan toasted, Yuan Wenshao and Sheng Hualan followed suit, all praising Wang Ruofu! It turned Wang Ruofele's mouth to the back of his head!

"satisfied……"

Aunt Kang was very angry when she saw this happy scene. She opened her mouth to yell a few words, but was temporarily calmed down by a sharp look from Mrs. Wang!
Seeing that Mrs. Wang had calmed down her daughter, in order to match the atmosphere just now, she also praised Xu Wenhui and others fiercely,
Why is this young and promising one, and that smart and capable one!
She also said that Sheng Hong had good taste and chose a good family for his daughter! Anyway, I praised it to everyone except my own family!
Uncle Wang and others also echoed with eyes, everyone praise me, I will praise you!
The atmosphere suddenly became much more harmonious and cheerful!
But others could keep their composure, but Ru Lan couldn't. She had a bad temper and had long disliked Aunt Kang. When she saw that this aunt was unwilling to give up and looked so ugly, she immediately interrupted:

"By the way, aunt! I heard that my cousin-in-law, Young Master Qi, is very busy at the Yamen. He is busy all day long. Is that true? Oh my, it's different when this young and promising man becomes a high official!" (This chapter) over)
