Chapter 904 A Hero Three Gangs
The literary selection man Li Yaoqing took office and threw a stone in the chasing situation like a calm water surface, but as the ripples spread, the splashing splashes fell again, and the sounds and sounds quickly disappeared.
In comparison, his marriage was handled, which was more eye-catching. It should be noted that Yin Shidan had left the court for seven years. His old house had been sold out, and his disciples and old friends had their own circles. Therefore, after the Yin family's marriage was sent to the capital, many curious officials were watching where this group of people would settle.
No one expected that the second son, Mr. Yin and his second daughter-in-law Xie, who came to see him off, did not go to the old friends and relatives to spend time, but moved directly into the former Yin Zhengmao's palace!
This Yin is not the Yin family, one is the Yin family in Licheng, and the other is the Yin family in Shangli, She County. No one heard that these two had joined forces when they were officials, but now the Yin family members who sent their marriage to live in the Yin Mansion in the past. No one thought it would be a pure coincidence. Soon, Yin Zhengmao's mansion was bought by the She County fellow villagers Wang Fulin and Cheng Naixuan, and all the way was converted into the She County Guild Hall. This time, the ones who sent their marriage to Yin Shidan's family were sent by Wang Fulin to pick them up at the Tongzhou Wharf, and then placed them in the courtyard of the West Road. This series of news spread like wildfire. Until this time, many people who knew it later were shocked.
Is this Zhang Juzheng instructing Wang Fulin to help receive the Yin family, or is it Wang Fulin himself and Yin Shidan? Or is it because Wang Fulin has a friendship with the newly promoted Wenxuanlang?
Among the many speculations, Wang Fulin unveiled the mystery in the Censorate: "Brother Li is half a teacher for me. He is going to organize a marriage when he first arrived, so I naturally have to do my best."
Wang Fulin returned to Beijing for a year and a half, and the position of the censor of the Taoist Censor was firmly seated. Zhang Juzheng was very handsome. In addition, his brilliant record of winning every battle, even a high-ranking official like Shangshu Shilang dared not ignore him. Therefore, his evaluation undoubtedly became a reason why many people looked up to the new Wenxuanlang.
As for the second son and a wife of Yinge who were once out of date, many people secretly considered whether they should visit and help their marriage.
So, when Xiaobei and Xu Yao came to see someone on the day after the Yin family arrived, the second wife of Yin, Xie, naturally, greeted him in front of the door. Although the Yin family started with Yin Shidan's grandfather and was a famous Confucian master in Shandong, they were only admitted to the third-class Jinshi when Yin Shidan was in the imperial examination. Yin Shidan was appointed as the Minister of Shang and became the chief minister, but never took good care of his son's battle in the imperial court. Now his eldest son and second son, one is a student and the other is a juren, who has not yet become an official. I hope he has already been placed on the third generation, but it is just a treasure of the prince.
Therefore, even if he doesn't look at the house he lends to his own, the second wife of Yin, Xie, would not have put on airs in front of Xiaobei and Xu Yao, who were ten years younger than him. After all, her husband is young, but he is a Kedao!
In fact, although the Yin family is a scholarly family for several generations, it is not a wealthy family. Before entering Beijing, the couple were considering whether the dowry would be too shabby. They also considered among the many relatives and friends who borrowed which house to marry, and never thought that the person who came to pick them up at Tongzhou Wharf directly sent them to the former Yin Shangshu Mansion. After all, it was from the same surname, and Yin Zhengmao had retired and returned home like Yin Shidan. The house was originally empty. While the couple lived there, they didn't have to think about disturbing each other, but they couldn't help but inquire about who the owner was now. They were all surprised to find out that it was Wang Fulin and Cheng Naixuan.
At this moment, Mrs. Yin, thanking her all the way, but Xu Yao said, "When Mr. Li was in She County, he was half a teacher to my husband and Mr. Wang. Now he has to do such a big happy event as soon as he arrived in the capital. It is necessary for us to help this little favor. Second Mrs., you don't have to take it seriously. But you have been trekking here from Jinan, and the journey is tiring, especially Miss Yin. If you feel uncomfortable or not, please tell me if you feel uncomfortable or not."
"Grandma Cheng, you are so polite." Mrs. Yin Er heard this and felt that the other party's younger sister-in-law who looked up to the future was worthy of her father-in-law's opinion on the marriage early, but she actually acquiesced to her sister-in-law for so many years. When she found out at that time, she had a whisper in her heart that the age difference between men and women was seven years old, so why did they meet each other? One was not a noble person and the other was not a king?
Xiaobei said with a smile: "Mr. Li is very busy with his new official position, so he entrusts me to find a new house. Although I let the middle-aged man in the Yasper shop see several places, I think that the young couple will live in the future. Since the prospective groom is not available to see it, it is better for the second wife and Miss Yin and sister-in-law to take time. Let's go and see where it is more suitable. Don't be polite to me, after all, you can live for at least three to five years, and at most seven to eight years or ten years, so you can't be careless."
Mrs. Yin also helped many familiar families to get married in Licheng. Even so, it was still the first time she met such a man who was easy to talk to. You know, the old man was very old, and even if the young girl born in old age was married, it was impossible to send her all the way to the capital. This was not a problem of insufficient love. The old man said that once a former elder like him returned to Beijing, it would definitely arouse many suspicions, so he was only sent to the entrance of the village. Such a thin marriage team, the man was so careful to treat her, which undoubtedly represented the man's expectation and attention to this marriage.
Therefore, even though she didn't want Miss Yin to see anyone casually before, so as not to be said that the old girl was in a hurry to get married and disrespectful manner, after thanking her and thanking her, she still took a loophole and quietly ordered her mother to invite her sister-in-law. Although she was nominal sister-in-law, she was eleven years apart. In the years since she married, she actually treated her as half a daughter.
After a moment, Xiaobei saw the door curtain move, but a slim girl came in. She saw the person dressed simply without makeup, but even so, she could not hide her beauty, just like a rich peony. Thinking of Master Li being as handsome as a bamboo, she liked peony, and she couldn't help but curl the corners of her mouth. When the person stepped forward to bow, she quickly stood up and helped the person up.
Xu Yao was slowing down. After Xiaobei forced himself to sit down, she said with a little surprise: "Xiaobei, even Miss Fang, who was recognized as a beauty in Yixiang Society back then, isn't as beautiful as Miss Yin? Ah..."
Realizing that she was a little confused, Xu Yao's face suddenly turned red. Finally, she had treated people too much and quickly explained: "I don't mean that, I just think Miss Yin is really too..."
After this too word, she got stuck again and said in a hurry: "I'm sorry, I'm really stunned and didn't know what to say for a moment."
Fortunately, Xiaobei saw that Miss Yin was not unhappy, so he pursed his lips and said, "Sister Xu said something wrong, so please don't take it seriously. I really feel pity for you, let alone others? When Mr. Li talked about the marriage with my husband before, he looked like he had been willing to die and was proud. You must know that he had just returned from Xuancheng to She County when he refused to marry. He has been dragging his marriage for many years. I think he is extremely satisfied with the current marriage. Only a good person like him has been waiting for five years."
Unexpectedly, Li Yaoqing even revealed the five-year appointment. Although Mrs. Yin blushed, she couldn't help but become more convinced of the relationship between the future son-in-law and Wang Cheng's family, and hurriedly looked at her sister-in-law. The next moment, she saw Miss Yin stand up with a little shyness and say, "My second brother and sister-in-law are here from afar. Thanks to the care of the two sisters, I should have visited the door to pay my respects, but now I am a daughter waiting to marry, so I dare not come rashly. I actually let my two sisters come to see me. Thank you for praising me just now. Li Lang and I... are indeed fate."
If it weren't for fate, how could the two meet three times in a row? If it weren't for fate, how could Li Yaoqing ignore the ban on not getting married during his term of office and write seven or eight letters to her father Yin Shidan, and swear to marry him after leaving office. When his father was angry and funny, but was not without his heart, Li Yaoqing even invited his parents far away in Xuancheng to meet in private!
If it weren't for the fact that she had already passed the road with her parents, how could she have been at home with various excuses such as illness and so on until she was nineteen years old?
Miss Yin's slightly shy expression was just right, and Xiaobei couldn't help but be amazed. Thinking that Ye Junyao had a great appreciation for Master Li's talents at the time, he almost wanted to betroth his sister Ye Mingyue to him. As a result, Master Li avoided him like a tiger, and Ye Mingyue had no intention at all. For a moment, the matter became ruthless and unintentional. At this moment, she couldn't help but secretly compared her sister who had always respected with Miss Yin.
My sister is smart and capable, refreshing and generous, but she also teases people from time to time; but from the first impression of this young lady Yin, under her beautiful appearance, her shy and restrained temperament is clearly clear.
After all, it is still a good personality, and it is the most important thing to fall in love with each other. My sister said that she and her brother-in-law, who are a little dull but strong, get along well when it is time to be strong.
After the initial awkwardness, because they were not very different from each other's age, Mrs. Yin saw Xiaobei and Xu Yao chatting with Miss Yin with a smile, so she didn't interrupt and just sat quietly beside her.
When the future son-in-law invited his parents to come and talk to the old man in person, she was completely kept in the dark, but she formally asked the matchmaker to propose marriage, but she decided to take his wife to office with her. This means that her sister-in-law will stay in the capital for a long time. In this way, Miss Yin has completely left the circle in Jinan Mansion, and it is very important to make new friends. Now these two are slightly two or three years older and have good temperaments when speaking. Why isn't she happy for her sister-in-law?
When Xiaobei mentioned the house viewing again, Miss Yin couldn't help but look at her sister-in-law hesitantly, but she didn't expect Mrs. Yin to smile and said, "Since Grandma Wang is so thoughtful, we should not swear. Let's go see it together tomorrow. It will be a long-term thing. If the son-in-law knows it, he will definitely think that we care about him."
"Well... well... I'll ask for your two sisters."
Miss Yin nodded and agreed. When Xiaobei and Xu Yao returned in the same car, they naturally couldn't help but smile. When they went out the next day, they met with the sister-in-law of the Yin family. Among the three houses, they picked a three-entry house closest to Chengjia Hutong and agreed on the price with Yashang. Miss Yin thought it was for three or five years, but she didn't expect that Xiaobei and Xu Yao would buy the house directly for 3,600 taels. Mrs. Yin was shocked. After the middle-aged man in Yashang signed the contract and left, she quickly wanted to speak, but Xiaobei smiled and grabbed it first.
"I bought this house with Sister Xu and I. I originally planned to give it to Lord Li and Sister Yin as a gift, but we also know that neither of you will, so I just want to settle for the second best thing and rent it to you after getting married. Just wait for when you don't want it, and you can return it to us. If we sell it at that time, maybe we can make a profit. If you think it's good to buy it in the future, it will be a good idea to buy it at the original price. The contract book says the names of Sister Xu and me, and others can't say that we are bribing Lord Li, the new Wenxuanlang."
"How can I be so embarrassed..." Miss Yin felt her face flushed. After gritting her teeth, she still said with heart, "For such a big thing, my sisters, please discuss with Li Lang. My sister-in-law and I cannot agree on him."
"Of course, I will let my husband talk to Lord Li when he turned around." Xiaobei agreed readily and immediately said, "Not only is the place close to the Wang family and the Cheng family, but the furniture included in the house is all good. The most important thing is that it can be used as a new house immediately without renovation. This is the most suitable one."
Although Miss Yin was uneasy, Mrs. Yin was a little hesitant. She turned around and discussed with her husband, Mr. Yin. What mattered in the end was whether Li Yaoqing would agree. The Yin family was an ordinary family, but they all knew that Mr. Li was just a scholar back then and his family was mediocre. If he refused such kindness, it would not only hurt others' hearts, but he was afraid that the marriage would be too shabby, and the family would have their own worries.
It was not until Li Yaoqing sent someone to deliver a letter to inform them that they had agreed to the Wang Cheng family that they would rent the house at a price of 200 taels of silver per year that they felt relieved.
Just when Master Li was the former, and now the new official of Lord Li was busy working. When Xiaobei and Xu Yao helped organize the marriage, Wang Fulin was not idle either. He greeted Guo Bao, the Jinyiwei Beifu Prefecture Department manager, and Chen Liang, Xiaoqi, respectively. He bought seven or eight servants with absolutely reliable backgrounds from the previous dentist, and placed them together with his wife and Cheng Naixuan's wife to buy a new house rented to Li Yaoqing. Although he was worth half a cent, he asked Jinyiwei to ensure that the servants in the family were not mixed with sand. Guo Bao and Chen Liang all knew what to say.
Compared to these, the most important thing is that Wang Fulin specially visited Wang Zhuan for Li Yaoqing's affairs in the evening. The news that he had made at the Censorate has spread now, so Wang Zhuan said as soon as he met: "I was thinking about where the new Wenxuanlang came out, but I didn't expect it was yours!"
"Young Master Wang, aren't you so ugly? You are obviously from Master Yin, but after someone came to me, I suddenly realized that he had such a good seat."
Wang Zhuan suddenly laughed: "Who told you to continue to be in the Censorate? It is also a good thing that you don't get a favor with outsiders. Speaking of this, did you see the message you sent to you before? Your two former friends are the doctor of the Guangdong Department of the Ministry of Revenue and the other is the director of the Ministry of Rites and the member of the Ministry of Rites and the member of the Ministry of Rites and the member of the Ministry of Rites and Etiquette Department."
Wang Fulin thanked him again and again immediately. Can you not see it? He was so happy that he received the letter that day. Nowadays, he was not as reliable as his ordinary fellow countrymen in the same year. This is more reliable in this kind of friendship in times of hardship! (To be continued.)
