MTL - Love Like the Galaxy-Chapter 9
Not waiting for Cheng Shi to continue, Cheng's mother said: "I know, my son has done a good job again this time, the emperor wants to increase your official rank!" Dong Lu interrupted and laughed: "Add The official rank is natural, the adults have worked hard and made great achievements, and they will also give great rewards to the fields of gold and silver."
Cheng Shi smiled and said, "Your Majesty is benevolent, and he never fails a minister of merit. What can I say? What I want to say is another matter." He looked around the crowd, His eyes fell on Cheng Shaoshang, and his face was full of love and said, "In addition, Yuanyi and I have four sons and one daughter. Fortunately, the four sons followed the family of General Wan and walked slowly, and did not come back with us, otherwise the house Small and nowhere to live…”
Gr. hurriedly interjected: "Brother, you can't blame me for this, you said in your letter that it will take half a month to come, who knows that you will come, in a short while, I have no reason to do anything. Get out of the house for you..."
Cheng mother shouted: "Shut up. It was too late at that time, and now they have been back for several days, have you sorted out the house? The eldest is the head of the family, you are better, take it up The biggest house, unwilling to move."
Ge's defended: "When I moved there, you agreed, Jun and Aunt. It was the sorcerer who said that the residence was good for a son. Look, I gave birth to a son..."
She can give birth and support herself, and naturally she has the same requirements for her daughter-in-law.
Garden's half-death. After Cheng Shi and his wife took office, Cheng Cheng complained that she was a stumbling block and the relationship between husband and wife was not good. After that, she either refused to cooperate or did not work hard. How could she have prosperous children? !
Thinking of this, she rolled her eyes and sobbed at Mrs. Xiao: "I am incompetent. On the younger brother’s face, it is pitiful that he has only one son under his knees, and the general already has a strong son, so the prophecy would rather be believed, maybe God will be pitiful…”
Mother Cheng disagreed: "What is prosperous, the eldest only has four sons, I heard that Yuhou has thirteen sons, that is the style of a generational noble family with great wealth! If the house is really good in feng shui, it's even better to let the boss and his wife live there, anyway, it's not very useful for you to live in..."
Ge Shi was not convinced: "Yu Hou has a room full of beautiful concubines, and the thirteen sons were not born by Mrs. Yu Hou!"
Cheng Shaoshang: Dear, you are crooked.
"--Okay!" Cheng Shi shouted, "What nonsense are you talking about! Don't you listen to this happy event!" It is good to talk about the house, where is it being dragged. He went to see Mrs. Xiao again, for fear that she would be unhappy, but Mrs. Xiao didn't seem to hear at all, not even shaking the jade pendant beside her ear.
"What's the relationship between the concubine and Zixi, there are fewer concubines of the brother-in-law? But the Lu family is not the only one who has children." Cheng Shi said.
Dong Yong hurriedly shrank his neck, and Dong Lu proudly raised his chest.
"Ji concubine, I accept it if I love it, and I don't accept it if I don't love it. I don't love it, and there are quite a few children..." Cheng Shi turned his head and glanced at the drinker with his head down. Cheng Cheng, "...Second brother, I might as well accept a few. The third brother got married late, and he has a daughter and two sons. It seems that Ge Shi can't do it..."
Cheng Shaoshang is embarrassed again: Dear, you are also crooked. Moreover, what is it? She has a faint feeling that this general's father should be a happy Chinese paper with poor mouth and gossip before he rises to the top.
Ge's sharp voice sounded: "What do you mean by uncle-in-law? How can you be so criticized..."
"—Sir." Mrs. Xiao finally couldn't help interrupting. She closed her eyes and said, "Just get down to business." Habit.
Cheng Shi stroked his beard, cleared his throat, and said, "Mom, the third brother sent a letter a few days ago saying that he is going back to the capital to report his work. This year, we will be able to celebrate the Spring Festival at home. It is rare that the three brothers can be together this time. The neatly reunited under my grandmother's knees must be lively. I feel that the family is full of children and grandchildren, and this house is really not enough to live in..."
Cheng's mother cried with joy: "The third child is coming back, this is God's blessing, the three of you brothers can be reunited at last. Over the years, the two of you are east and west, and I worry every day that you have It's a surprise, it's good now. The house is smaller, and it's okay for my family to live in a crowd, as long as people come back. "
Cheng Shaoshang noticed that when the third room was coming back, Cheng Cheng, who had always been half-dead, also straightened up with a look of joy on his face.
Cheng Shi smiled and said, "It's okay to squeeze a little bit now, but what if the second brother and the third brother have more and more children? Now, I will marry a wife and have children in the future, a group of small babble, you can't even hold your mother, and the house can't be squeezed..."
These words are exactly what Mother Cheng loves to hear. Thinking of the little children rolling around in a room in the future, she is so happy that she will fly out, and she nods again and again: "Yep."
"So, I wanted to change the family to a bigger house a few years ago." Cheng Shi said, "Unfortunately, I have been looking around, and most of the larger empty houses are far from the center, far from the center. In the near future, the good houses have taught others to live. But in the future, whether the court or the children go to Taixue to study, the closer the better..." In the past, the family was poor, and one money had to be divided into two. After ten years of conquests The money is more than enough, but there is nowhere to buy a desirable mansion; most of those generals from the dragon, the princes and the royal family, are in high spirits and strong, and who is willing to sell a good mansion.
When Cheng Shi talked about Taixue, Ge Shi's expression changed and he didn't dare to interrupt.
I just heard Mother Cheng sigh: "Who said no. Come early and occupy early, who told us to come late."
Cheng Shi smiled and said: "Who knows, I don't have to look for it, the house is here. Mom, do you know the cloth house in Qianjie? It's the one that rebelled at the beginning of the year!" Cheng Shaoshang's mouth cornered Tic: Father Cheng, you are so happy when you talk about rebellion, does your emperor know?
Mother Cheng was still a little confused, but Dong Lu said smartly: "I know, isn't it the cloth family who escaped from the capital with his brothers, wife and children while the battle was going on in front of His Majesty? I heard that they fled to the sea, and they struggled with their former subordinates along the way."
Mrs. Xiao glanced at the Dong Lu family with admiration, and said: "It's this house. I still read the letter of the third brother, and learned that the prefect of Langya pursued his remnants and executed them all. killed."
Dong Lu sighed: "How nice of your majesty, how kind and generous you are to your servants, this family is really, such a high title, what are you running for, and the whole family is sacrificed for nothing."
Cheng Shaoshang said in his heart, no matter how high the title is, it is not cool to be an emperor.
Cheng Chenghu said: "Gong Buwen was a hero at home, he was defeated by His Majesty's hand, and he was forced to surrender because of helplessness, and he was unwilling to be reconciled."
Cheng Shi saw that the second brother was finally willing to speak, and said happily: "What kind of hero is he who sacrificed his ally's head to his majesty, what kind of hero, second brother, you are in the capital, what else have you heard."
Cheng Chengdao: "Not only Duke Wen, but also several families who are unwilling, or who are eager to make a move, or secretly stalking thieves. A while ago, His Majesty ordered several officials to be imprisoned. It is not easy for His Majesty... "
This is a very familiar scene: the world is in chaos, and the heroes rise together. Today this one is self-reliant, and tomorrow the one is pushed to be the emperor. It is like a competition for the king, very cruel and very scientific. The last Gu worm was either the strongest, the luckiest, or both.
The emperor that Cheng's father turned to was only one of the many small leaders in the world. At the beginning of the establishment of the country, he was surrounded by enemies on all sides, but Mrs. Xiao had a first-class vision. It has gradually revealed the trend of unifying the universe; but there are still lucky people who want to try again.
"But...what does this have to do with the house?" Mother Cheng looked blank. Cheng Shaoshang praised: The main building is good.
Cheng Shi smiled and said: "General Wan was injured this time due to his meritorious service, His Majesty took care of him and gave the big mansion of the Bu family to General Wan. General Wan knew that he was replacing the mansion everywhere, so he Give up the mansion next door."
"Let?" Mother Cheng's voice trembled, "My son means, they gave us the house?" Without spending money? !
Uncle Dong was also surprised. Wanzhai and Chengzhai looked down together, like a gourd with a small head and a big body. Wanzhai was about four or five times bigger than Chengzhai, and the two were only separated by a wall. At the beginning, the emperor was only one of the heroes, and his power was still weak. Although it was set to be here, many wealthy and wealthy families were not optimistic. They were worried that there would be military chaos here, so they sold their houses and returned to their hometowns to avoid disaster.
The wealthy and wealthy family bought these two adjoining houses as soon as they came to the capital, and sold the small house on the side to the Cheng family. Uncle Dong also complimented General Wan, but they didn't even give him a chance.
"Exactly." Cheng Shi smiled, "When I came back the first day to see Mrs. Wan Lao, the old lady said that she would simply move there before Zhengdan, and worship ghosts, gods and ancestors in the new house. ; also told the children to move earlier, so that the new year will be prosperous!"
Mother Cheng was so happy she didn't know what to say, she nodded.
Ge hurriedly said, "Mrs. Wan is so generous, why can't we help, uncle-in-law, you should call your second brother then."
Mrs. Xiao's eyes flashed, and she said, "No need. General Wan is injured, so it's not easy to move around. In fact, Mrs. Wan has been moving the house since ten days ago. Let's It didn't help much, it's almost been moved in the past few days. When General Wan returns to the city, he can go back to his new house to recuperate, and we'll just come and eat He Qiaoqian wine."
Mother Cheng was so happy that she could only say 'good'.
Gursley said in amazement, "It started moving ten days ago, why haven't I heard of it at all?" She kept telling the servants to watch the movement of the Wan family.
Mrs. Xiao looked at her with no deep meaning, and said: "Mrs. Wan is a hero in the world, and the royal family is like a royal army. If you can, show what you can't, use it and show you don't use it. The house moved quickly, but it looked like a deep pool on the bright side, and there was not much movement."
Ge's hair was cold, and he quickly lowered his head; he secretly scolded Wan Nu for being a dead old woman.
Cheng Shi smiled and said, "Mum, I've already thought about it, just break through the wall and connect the two houses, then my mum will live in the current residence of Mrs. Wan Lao. , Er and Yuan Yi lived at the place where General Wan used to live. Didn’t the second brother like to study quietly, the place is big, he can choose where he wants to go!”
Mother Cheng trembled with excitement. In the second half of her life, Madam Wan was the one she admired the most. She was majestic and solemn. She said that General Wan was a dutiful son. She gave her mother the best and most comfortable place in the house, and she could live like Madame Wan in the future. day?
She couldn't help but burst into tears, and her heart softened. She felt that although she had been arguing for ten years, her son still thought about himself as an old lady. All the younger brothers and nephews stand aside first. I was really confused before, and I can no longer hurt the son's heart for the Dong family.
Dong Lu was very obedient, and hurriedly said loudly: "Congratulations, Aunt Hexi, I will enjoy endless blessings in the future."
Everyone at the table straightened up and congratulated. Dong Yong was still ignorant, but Uncle Dong knew that the situation was over, and the nephew was determined to separate his sister from him, and not let him take advantage of it any more.
Ge Shi also smiled and said, "Every time I go back to the next door, I like it very much in my heart. I really didn't expect that one day we can live in it."
Cheng Shi rolled his eyes, and said angrily, "You don't have to go, you don't say that the house you live in now is good for you, so just stay well, no one will come. hinder your son."
Cheng Shaoshang can't laugh in his stomach, you tell your husband to go to Wanzhai to choose a place at will, but tell your wife not to move, how can the mother-in-law of the Ge family be so prosperous!
Ge's face was purple, and she was choked for a while. She wanted to say how a husband and wife could have children in different rooms, but was ashamed to say it, and could only stutter "you, you, you". In fact, she had long thought that when Mrs. Xiao came back, she would ask her to go back to the housekeeper's right and the main house. Although the former could not refuse, she could also be embarrassed. As for the main house, she was determined not to let it go, which made her anxious. just cry.
Who knows that Mrs. Xiao has never mentioned changing the house since she came back. It turns out that she is waiting here. She has finally raised the servants in this old house. , I don't even ask, I just fill the new house with my own confidants, how can I have the chance to speak by myself.
Ge's mind suddenly became clear about the future: My sister-in-law has been with her for several years, and she had also experienced Mrs. Xiao's methods. At that time, it was the generals that Mrs. Xiao brought back to guard the door of the new house. How could she move those people? If she moved to the new house, Mrs. Xiao would at most ask her to bring a few servants, so what else did she spend in the past ten years? use?
Before Ge Shi thought of answering, Dong Yong looked envious and said with a smile: "Aunt, I haven't been to the Wanjia mansion yet, my father and mother will follow you to see Yes, can I..."
"What can you do? No." Mother Cheng refused, "I just said that you are not allowed to come to Cheng's house, but you thought that the old man said it for nothing. In the future, except for the Cheng family's big event to hold a banquet, otherwise you will Don't come in."
Mrs. Xiao had a look of contempt in her eyes. Although Uncle Dong was greedy, he was a smart person. My aunt acted like a spoiled brat in front of me, she only pretended to be a cowhide cream because of her thick skin; when she came back, she would find someone to tear up the cowhide, and let him know that the sky is high and the earth is thick.
A sister's punishment is enough, how can we cut off contact." Uncle Dong was a good helper for her against Madam Xiao, and she only had a chance to win when she came.
Mrs. Xiao smiled and looked at her husband, Cheng Shi had a sullen face, Hu Yu looked at Cheng's mother with a smile, and the wink meant 'What do you think, let me tell you the truth, She sure would say that'.
Cheng's mother slapped the table and shouted: "What does our Dong family have to do with you? You dare to gossip about what the boss and I have agreed on. How old are you in this family? You are so reluctant to bear it. Dong's house, just go to Dong's house! I won't stop you from being happy!"
To say that the peasants were sincere, and when they scolded people, they directly shot down three ways, Cheng Shaoshang's eyes lit up.
As soon as these words came out, Ge Shi's face was as pale as a pig's liver. Although she grew up in the countryside, she was the jewel of Ge Taigong. Hearing a whimper, she pushed the case open and ran out of the house with her sleeves covered.
Cheng Shaoshang didn't think it was a big deal to watch the fun, so he quickly went to peep at Uncle Cheng. Who knew that Uncle Cheng's expression didn't change at all, and he still only poured his own drink; no one in the room responded, such as Uncle Dong Cheng Shi et al. knew earlier about Mother Cheng's fighting power, while Mrs. Xiao, Mrs. Dong Lv, knew about today's drama.
After one round, only the big-eyed girl sitting next to Cheng Shaoshang's seat was flushed, her fists were clenched, her face was embarrassed and ashamed, and the fat boy had been fooling around Eat Heisei, probably didn't understand what happened.
After spraying her daughter-in-law, Cheng’s mother was in high spirits. Hu Yu filled her with wine and said with a smile: “After talking for a long time, hurry up and moisten your throat.” "This is what I cooked in the kitchen today. Can you taste it when we were young?"
It's your craft." He turned to look at Dong Yong, who was dumbfounded, and said, "What are you looking at, eat!"
Hu Li smiled and said: "Dong Gong and son are born rich and noble, so they probably don't like these country dishes."
Cheng Shaoshang patted her thigh secretly, this old woman is very good at speaking.
Cheng's mother heard the words and saw that Cheng began to eat meat and it was fragrant, as if she hadn't eaten it for a long time. My father watched, and I watched after my father passed away. Wherever their father and son have suffered, my children have all suffered!"
Uncle Dong on the side is really not picking up chopsticks, he can only laugh.
