Mountain wild man Ziwang and his wife

Chapter 491 Mrs. Huang Visits

At the end of June, the transfer order came down, and Shen Xiao was transferred to the East China Sea to serve as the commander of the East China Sea Guard.

Give him two months, and he will arrive at the Command and Envoy Division of Donghaiwei by the end of August.

Belongs to flat tone.

After the transfer order came down, the officialdom in Hengyi Mansion was very quiet, not a single Shen Xiao hosted a farewell party.

Everyone knows that going to Donghaiwei at this time is to die, not to mention anything else, two of Donghaiwei's chief soldiers died one after another.

And the new chief soldier, Lu Zhongyi, is the queen mother's cousin. Can the queen mother let her cousin go into danger?
Certainly not, so Shen Xiao, the hero who killed the Prince of Xiliang, was used to attract hatred. The credit for winning the fight is Lu Zhongyi's, and if he doesn't win, it's Shen Xiao's bad luck.

Everyone knew that Shen Xiao was Bisi's cannon fodder.

So why spend time and effort to maintain a relationship with a mortal person?

Isn't this a waste of expression?
Officials are different from ordinary people. Most people are still willing to judge others by themselves. For example, if you are a mediocre person, you think that all the officials in the world are actually mediocre. No one is much better than anyone else. If your political achievements are good, It is nothing more than two conditions. First, you have a backer, and second, you are lucky.

Take whatever you want.

If the political achievements are not good, they will probably complain about these two things. I have no backing for my height, and I have no luck for my height.

It is definitely not because of my lack of ability, it is impossible, they are all born through the imperial examination, how can there be lack of ability?
Can you still pass the Jinshi (juren) exam if you don't have the ability?

Pull it down.

This way of thinking is the same when applied to generals.

No matter how powerful your martial arts are, can you compete with thousands of troops?How is it possible?It's just a matter of luck.

Therefore, for Shen Xiao, a fourth-rank military officer who has no foundation, although the popular voice is particularly high, most people in the officialdom look down on him.

In addition, there is a chain of contempt between civil and military...

In short, when Shen Xiao, an insignificant person, was about to leave Hengyi Mansion, no one set off cannons to celebrate, and no one felt sorry for him.

On the contrary, the Liu family called several times to invite Yin Tao to have a drink and a show, but Yin Tao refused.

In two months, all the affairs on this side had to be properly arranged, and there was still a month to stay on the road. In addition, the background of Lu Zhongyi, the general of Lao Shizi who also served as the commander, had to be checked.

Where did he get Kung Fu to entertain the Liu family?

Huaishu Village is going to go, all the properties in Fucheng must be guarded by suitable people.

There is also Yin Baosheng, Yin Tao thinks that she is not in Fucheng, Yin Baosheng is better to go back to Huaishu Village, as for the hot spring village on the other side of Fucheng, the old man can come to live if he wants to live in winter.

In fact, according to Yin Baosheng's idea, he would go with him, but going to the East China Sea was not a joke, and Yin Tao naturally disagreed.

As for the tiger cubs, they are too big now, so it is not suitable to take them back to Huaishu Village, so they will stay at the Hot Spring Villa to be raised by the dumb slaves, and the dumb slaves will not follow.

Now he has officially accepted Dr. Duan's grandson as his apprentice, and he teaches with great care every day. Brother and sister Duan Xiaoshan and Duan Xiaoling like Huzi very much, and happily took over the task of taking care of Huzi.

Yin Baosheng was upset, and Yin Tao coaxed him for a long time before coaxing him well.

Time flies so fast when people get busy, and it's the end of July in the blink of an eye.

Yin Tao and Shen Xiao also packed up and were ready to go.

The day before they set off, Mrs. Huang brought her eldest and second brothers over.

"Mrs. Huang!" Yin Tao went to the front hall to meet her, thinking about the 1 taels of silver that he hadn't got yet.

"I've met Mrs. Shen." Mrs. Huang and her two elder brothers greeted Yin Tao, and Yin Tao hurriedly ordered people to watch the tea.

"What's the purpose of Mrs. Huang and the two masters coming here?" After sitting down, Yin Tao asked straight to the point, she didn't have time to gossip with people.

"It's a thank-you gift for Mrs. Shen!" Mrs. Huang said with a smile. After she finished speaking, her elder brother Shen Guangsheng stood up and asked his servants to bring in two boxes. After the box was opened, there was an ingot of yellow-orange gold.

This time, several doctors confirmed that she was successfully pregnant. In addition, her poisoning was also found out.

There is a problem with the incense she uses on weekdays!

Hehe, after checking the source, I found her good mother-in-law.

Wait, she is pregnant with the child now, and she will settle the score with the Huang family after she gives birth to the child!

"We made our own decisions and exchanged the silver for gold. Madam Shen, please don't blame me!" Shen Guangsheng pointed to the gold in the box.

Although Yin Tao was not a fan of money, he was taken aback when he saw so much gold.

"The gift Mrs. Huang promised is not so much!" 50 taels of gold is equal to 500 taels of silver, ten ingots is 5000 taels, and twenty ingots is 1 taels.

These two boxes contained at least forty ingots of gold.

In other words, these two boxes have a total of 2 taels of silver!
"Mrs. Shen, you are welcome. The 1 taels of silver is the thank you gift my sister promised you. This thank you gift is for her pregnancy. The other 1 taels of silver is a thank you..." Shen Guangsheng looked at the candle shadow, Yin Tao said: "It's okay Son, tell me."

After Shen Guangsheng heard this, he understood that the people around Yin Tao were her confidantes, so he didn't have anything to hide: "The other 1 taels is to thank you for reminding my sister. We don’t even know we were killed.”

Oh, Yin Tao understands, this is not only a thank you fee, but also a hush money.

1 taels of hush money... In fact, you can pay more, she can.

Can bear it!
Think about it, when he first time traveled, Shen Xiao was still an ordinary hunter, even if he was rich, he didn't have much money, and the old Yin's family was even more so, with a slick face.

Let alone 1 taels, even 1000 taels are not available.

But now...

Tsk tsk, the money you can earn at every turn is tens of thousands of taels!
As for making money, it really depends on the platform. If the platform is high enough and the people you meet are high-end (people who are stupid and rich), it will be easier to make money.

For example, if you show the symptoms of infertility to ordinary people as it is... Even if you charge him a hundred pennies, he will think it is expensive.

"You're being polite! How can you be ashamed?" Yin Tao said such words, then turned her head and asked Zhu Ying to take all the gold.

Sure enough, one cannot be an official's wife, and once one becomes an official's wife, this person becomes hypocritical.

then……

The three of Mrs. Huang's brother and sister watched Zhuying, a seemingly thin girl, put the two boxes together, then bent down and hugged them easily...

Suddenly, the sound of swallowing saliva sounded in the house.

This girl...is really strong!

"Well, Mrs. Shen, I heard that Master Shen is going to work in Donghai?" Mrs. Huang broke the embarrassment with a voice.

"That's right, we'll be leaving in a few days." Yin Tao followed her words, anyway, there was a lot of noise in their house, and they couldn't hide it from anyone. "So I'm so busy these days that I don't even have time to come when the old lady of the Commander's family invites me."
