Interstellar female dressed as country dude

After a while, Bai Shu came.

Just as Xie Ling was about to get up, Bai Shu said: "No need, you are the protagonist today, don't be polite to me."

After finishing speaking, he casually sat down beside Xie Ling, took out a box from his sleeve and said, "Let me show you, this is what your brother and I prepared for you."

I saw a deed in the box, which belonged to the Nanyang Baiyu Villa, and there were ten thousand taels of silver notes.In addition, there are some silver coins and gold leaves, a box full of 200 taels in total.

"Your brother asked me to prepare these gadgets, saying they are for you as rewards." Bai Shu said, "I don't understand these things, but your brother said that these rewards are indispensable for high-ranking families. In addition, the bank note is not convenient to exchange immediately, so you will have time to adapt."

"Although you will take up the post with Wei Qiong in a month, you will stay in Wei's house for another month after all. It's better to be well-prepared for everything."

"Thank you and big brother." Xie Ling was very happy at first, but now after hearing what Bai Shu said to him, he couldn't help feeling a little sad when he thought about leaving Xie's house.

Thinking about it this way, this period of time was his happiest time in Xie's house.It's a pity that I will be separated from my family in the future, and I don't know how long it will take to see him again.

"Okay, restrain yourself and stop crying." Bai Shu smiled and said, "I'll be back in a few days. If you don't feel comfortable, just tell me. If anyone in the Wei family dares to bully you, then Just go home, you don't have to go to Nansha in Naluoshizi."

When Bai Shu said this, Xie Ling laughed again, so he nodded and said: "I know sister-in-law, I always have you at home to support me."

When the two of them said this, someone from outside rushed in to report: "Here comes the bride! The bride is ready to leave the house!"

Bai Shu and Xie Ling hurriedly stood up and walked outside together.

After walking a few steps, I saw Xie Huaiyu standing outside the courtyard and said: "Let's go, there is still a long way to go, brother will carry you there."

Xie Ling had a sore nose, he didn't expect Xie Huaiyu to do this.

It's a folk custom for this eldest brother to carry his younger siblings on his back. This behavior of the natal family means that the newcomer has a backer in the natal family.

It's just that such customs are not practiced by everyone.

Especially in a noble family like theirs, each noble son is weak and has little strength.

For the sake of appearance, this custom has long been abolished, but now Xie Huaiyu wants to pick it up.

"Come up quickly, don't delay." Xie Huaiyu said with a slight frown.

Only then did Xie Ling take a step forward and lay on his brother's back.

Fortunately, he was considered light, although Xie Huaiyu was struggling a bit, he could bear it after all, so he picked him up and walked forward.

"I sent you out like this today. If you want to come to the Wei family to see it, no one will dare to bully you again." Xie Huaiyu said.

"Thank you, big brother..." Xie Ling choked up a little, and leaned on Xie Huaiyu's back.

Xie Huaiyu oozes some sweat on his forehead, and said: "The last time I carried you was when you accidentally fell into the water. At that time I rescued you, you were still very young and unconscious. I was so scared It's cold, I'm afraid you'll just pass by like this, and you won't wake up again. Fortunately, I woke up behind you, so I dare to leave in peace."

Xie Ling knew that he fell into the water, but he was carried back by Xie Huaiyu, but he didn't know about it.

He didn't know who pushed him into the pond. After falling into the water, he fell into a coma for three days before waking up.

After waking up, he was terrified and wanted to find Xie Huaiyu, but he heard that he had just left and had already gone to the school to study.

At that time, Mrs. Lou and Xie Qi said to him beside him: "Your elder brother is also careless. His younger brother fell into the water and didn't stay at home for a few more days. He was so heartless that he rushed to the school. .”

When he heard it, he felt so cold and resented Xie Huaiyu, but he didn't know that the person behind him who rescued him was his elder brother.

So it turns out that elder brother has always been so kind to him, Xie Ling thought.There are many scenes in my mind like a revolving lantern, all of which are the moments when I get along with my elder brother from childhood to adulthood.

At this time, not far from the gate, Xie Ling could already hear the loud sound of firecrackers and joy outside.

After crossing this threshold, he will really leave Xie's house.

Xie Ling tightened his hands, and hugged his elder brother even tighter.

The moment he crossed the threshold, the tears he had endured for a long time still fell, dripping on Xie Huaiyu's neck.

"Thank you, brother..." Xie Ling still said the same sentence, but Xie Huaiyu could hear the difference from before.

He was already sweating profusely, and his nose was a little sore.

Just seeing Wei Qiong's burning eyes looking at Xie Ling with affection in his eyes, he felt a little relieved.

My younger brother is finally married...

Xie Huaiyu put Xie Ling into the sedan chair, and the curtain of the sedan chair fell.

Wei Qiong stepped forward and bowed to Lord Xie.

He got on his horse and left with the wedding party.The dowry prepared by Xie's family for Xie Ling followed behind in a long line, looking very dignified.

Bai Shu wiped the sweat off Xie Huaiyu's brow with his sleeve, and joked, "You're not physically strong, but you're so tired after carrying Xie Ling on your back."

Xie Huaiyu: "..."

Xie's mansion is huge, from Xie Ling's courtyard to the gate, he walked for almost a quarter of an hour, so he was naturally tired.

But to be told by Bai Shu that his physical strength is so poor, Xie Huaiyu secretly determined in his heart that after the child is born, he must make Bai Shu look at him with admiration!

On the side of Wei's house, the door was already full of guests, waiting for the groom to bring them.

On the day of the wedding, as the in-laws of the Wei family, the Wen family had to come.

The eldest son of the Wen family, as the uncle of the Wei family, came here early to help, and Mrs. Wen also came here with a pair of children.

Because of Wen Xiu'e's past affair with Wei Qiong, Mrs. Wen's coming here is also a bit embarrassing.

After all, after Wen Xiu'e chose someone else, Wei Qiong couldn't say goodbye for a long time.

She also heard that Wei Jiang asked people to look for girls of the right age, and then somehow found this Xie family brother.

Mrs. Wen was waiting at the door, and she saw Wei Jiangshi's face was happy, standing at the door in Chinese clothes, with her back straight.

When Wen Xiu'e saw her, she leaned close to Mrs. Wen's ear and whispered: "This Wei Qiong has no future, and he can't marry a woman. Now that he has married a brother as the main wife, that Wei Jiangshi is also very proud."

Only then did Mrs. Wen softly say: "That's the Xie family's eldest brother. She is very happy. Otherwise, Wei Qiong of his family might have married even lower. It would be great to have a brother now."

"Brother Xie is really hard to think about." Wen Xiu'e smiled mockingly, "Given his family background, he might as well marry the eldest son of Lord Wei as his concubine."

"It's just young and frivolous." Mrs. Wen covered her mouth with a smile and said, "I heard that Xie Ling had a relationship with Wei Qiong earlier, and I was afraid that Wei Qiong would coax him, so I ran away with him. Wait for him to go out to the countryside After a few days of suffering in the local area, you will regret it."

The two of them were talking...the auspicious time arrived, and the team of welcoming the bride came over in a whistling manner.

Wei Qiong was also riding a horse today, wearing a red wedding dress, with a happy look in his eyes.

The sedan chair stopped at the gate of Wei's mansion, and Wei Qiong got off his horse very neatly.

Wen Xiu'e was a little startled, only felt that Wei Qiong today was different from the ones she had seen in the past, his every move was heart-stirring, and there was affection in his eyes, which she had never seen before.

She clenched her fists, feeling a little jealous in her heart.

That Wei Qiong wanted to marry her, but he didn't pretend to talk to her.Now that I am going to marry this brother Xie, I am very happy.

She had heard earlier that Wei Qiong had gone to see brother Xie, and later Xie Ling deliberately asked him about Wei Qiong in that shop, and she had already confirmed that it must be true.

Later, when she heard that the Xie family had married Xie Ling to Wei Qiong, she felt a little proud.I just feel that Xie Ling's marriage in the past was a low marriage, not a good marriage.

I didn't expect to see Wei Qiong welcoming the bride today, but I was very unhappy in my heart. Could it be that I am not as good as that Xie family brother in terms of talent, learning and appearance?

Wei Qiong lifted the curtain of the car, just as Xie Ling was about to go out.

Wei Qiong was quick, and hugged Xie Ling in her arms.

Xie Ling was taken aback, feeling ashamed and sweet.He buried his head in Wei Qiong's chest, not daring to look outside.

A group of people next to him booed and shouted: "Why did Brother Xie hide? Let's see!"

"The bride is so beautiful, why don't you let us see it?"

Xie Ling quietly glanced at Wei Qiong, and the two looked at each other, their eyes were dark, only reflecting each other's reflections.

Wei Qiong leaned close to his ear and said softly, "That comb...I saw it...I will remove it for you tonight..."

Hearing this, Xie Ling's back stiffened, his face was extremely hot, as if dripping blood, and he didn't dare to look at Wei Qiong again.

With an uncontrollable smile on the corner of Wei Qiong's mouth, she strode into the lobby with her sweetheart in her arms, without looking at anyone else.

The onlookers also swarmed behind and rushed in.

Leaving Wen Xiu'e behind to look at the backs of the two, she had mixed feelings in her heart, and she didn't know what to feel.

She thought in her heart that this kind of love is just passing away, Xie Ling and Wei Qiong, if they go to Nansha in the future, they will definitely suffer and will not live a good life.

On the one hand, he couldn't calm down for a long time, and when he thought of marrying that cousin in the future and living his life in an ordinary way, he just felt restless.

The deep affection in the eyes of those two people actually burned her.

Mrs. Wen tugged at her sleeves, and she walked into the Wei mansion together, suppressing the envy in her heart, and raised her neck.

The way she has chosen is right, the way she has chosen... must be right!

Although the Wei family married the third wife this time, because he is the elder brother of the Xie family, Wei Qiong has an official position.Therefore, there must be enough ostentation, and there are 66 tables in full.

Xie Ling followed Wei Qiong to serve tea to Wei Han and Wei Jiangshi in the front hall.

Wei Jiangshi winked, and a maid sent the box over again.This is to express his importance and love for Xie Ling, his daughter-in-law.

After the wedding ceremony, someone came to read Xie Ling's dowry list.

Xie Ling's dowry list is naturally not as long as Bai Shu's, but there are generally well-known ladies in Beijing, and they are all complete.

Needless to say, various auspicious objects, other dead objects, such as furniture, were not prepared because the two of them were going to go out soon.

It's just that the dowry silver is indispensable after all, it's as much as ten thousand taels, twice as much as the 5000 taels of the Wei family's betrothal gift.

Even if there were only these, the dowry was considered luxurious in the middle of Beijing.

Wen Xiu'e felt sore in her heart, she only felt that the dowry she prepared was no more than Xie Ling's, and she was somewhat displeased.

It's just that Xie Ling's dowry is much more than this?

She only heard the person behind read again——Brother Xie's dowry property, there is a Zhuangzi from Nanyang, with an annual income of more than [-] taels.

When everyone heard this, there was an uproar.

Xie Huaiyu actually paid Xie Ling such a profitable Zhuangzi, 6 taels!

What is the concept of 6 taels?

Those noblemen with titles, their annual salary is only 1 taels.The property on the dowry list has an annual income of 6 taels, which is six times the salary!

Not to mention the little dowry in Wen Xiu'e's hand, even Qi Qingwan's dowry can't compare with it.

Wei Qiong's eyes widened, she didn't expect to marry a golden baby.

Wei Jiangshi couldn't control his emotions at the moment, he was so happy that he didn't know what to do, and there were tears in his eyes, as if he was crying with joy.It caused Mrs. Wei to tug her sleeves fiercely, lest she lose her composure during the banquet.

At this time, the ceremony in the front hall was considered to be all over, everyone had to go to the back to sit, Xie Ling had to enter the bridal chamber first, and Wei Qiong went to entertain the guests.

Seeing that Wei Qiong supported Xie Ling to leave first, everyone followed behind and scattered in an orderly manner.

As soon as Mrs. Wen got up, she glanced sideways at her daughter.

Only then did I realize that Wen Xiu'e was crying silently at some point.

"What are you crying for?" Mrs. Wen's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly covered it for her, telling her to wipe away her tears. She wondered if anyone could see her.

"Even Xie Ling married so beautifully." Wen Xiu'e couldn't control her emotions, and said unwillingly: "He is a brother, how can he be so beautiful! Now, on the day I get married, I will be married on that day." How can I get a dowry? It must be discussed."

"Where can't you get your dowry? Even if it is less than that of the Xie family and the Qi family, it is still the first-class dowry of the Xuan Dynasty!" Mrs. Wen said: "The matter is now, what's the use of crying? You express Brother is already the best choice. Hurry up and put away that emotion, show me well, if today's events are seen and spread, I don't know what to say about you."

Wen Xiu'e also knew this truth in her heart, so after adjusting for a long time, she finally settled her mind and followed Mrs. Wen to the banquet at the back.

The marriage between the Wei family and the Xie family, because of this big wedding, is also a big show, making the whole capital secretly envious.

I just feel that although Wei Qiong was released, he married a brother who was backed by the Xie family. If the two families contribute in the future, being transferred back to Beijing will do a lot of good.

Two days later, it was the day when Xie Ling returned home.

Wei Qiong came to Xie's house with him early in the morning and brought many gifts.Although they are all things that the Xie family does not lack, they are also part of their heart.

When Xie Ling came back this time, he dressed luxuriously.

The clothes were new, not made at Xie's house, presumably Wei's had prepared them for him in advance.

His face was full of joy, white and rosy, obviously well nourished.

Seeing that in Wei's house, he must be entertained by Haosheng, and he has never been wronged.

Xie Huaiyu saw him, and his attitude towards Wei Qiong became a bit better. After the two met Sir Xie, they called him to the study to talk.

Xie Ling went to the backyard to talk with Bai Shu and Xie Qin.

Bai Shu said to Xie Ling: "Since you are back, stay at home for a few days before leaving. Your room will still be cleaned up for you."

Xie Ling nodded and said: "Okay, then stay for a few days before leaving."

Xie Qin smiled and said, "Why do you talk to yourself and don't ask your husband what he means?"

Xie Ling then said shyly: "It's okay, he...he will listen to me."

Bai Shu and Xie Qin looked at each other, and smiled inwardly, it seems that Xie Ling is doing well in Wei's house, if not, he would not dare to make up his own mind.

At this time, Bai Shu asked him some more about the Wei family, and Xie Ling answered them one by one, saying that everyone in the Wei family treated him very politely.

On his wedding day, he couldn't get up in the morning, so he indulged him, and Wei Qiong brought the meals to the room.

To say any more, is to spread dog food again.

Xie Qin shook her head a little unbearably, and said, "Don't say any more, let me listen, and you will definitely feel unbalanced when you go out in the future."

Everyone laughed, then changed the subject and ate the snacks served by the servant.

Afterwards, Xie Ling asked Bai Shu about Nanyang Zhuangzi again, and Bai Shu answered them one by one.I feel that the questions he raised this time are much more in-depth than the previous ones, and it can be seen that he has touched some doors.

One month later, the weather in central Beijing was still quite cold, but Xie Ling and Wei Qiong were about to leave for their posts.

When going to Nansha this time, Bai Shu contacted Wan's family and told them to go with the caravan.On the one hand, it will be safer, and on the other hand, it will be cheaper for Xie Ling to establish some relations with the Wan family.

On the day of leaving, both the Wei family and the Xie family came to see him off.

Wei Jiangshi shed tears again, crying and crying for his son.

Everyone watched as the two boarded the merchant ship and the fleet sailed away from the shore before going back separately.

Back at Xie's mansion, Xie Huaiyu felt a little emotional, took Bai Shu's hand and said, "Since Xie Ling left, Xie's family is gone, and it feels a bit empty. Fortunately, we can add another child in two months, so we can have more family members." some popularity."

Bai Shu nodded.Although he is about to give birth now, his belly seems to be only about five months old.

Xie Huaiyu was a little worried, so she went to ask the doctor.

However, the doctor said that because of Bai Zhu's tall stature and not a small frame, her stomach is smaller than that of ordinary women and brothers, and there is nothing unusual about it.

Only then did Xie Huaiyu feel relieved.

Xie Huaiyu is going to attend Chunwei soon, and the schoolwork is also tense at this time.

Seeing his hard work, Bai Shu went to the temple to pray for him, and asked for an amulet for Xie Huaiyu to wear.

It's just that the Baiyu Villa in the outskirts of Beijing has been repaired, but Baizhu is about to give birth, so I really don't have the heart to take care of it, so I decided to wait until after I gave birth to start the operation.

The Xie family is proud, but Zhao Yan and the Qi family are not feeling well.

When the emperor originally favored Zhao Yan, he and the Qi family had the same scenery.

However, since the day of his marriage, the emperor has shown his support for Zhao Liang, and the number of people who fell in love with Zhao Liang has increased day by day.

Of course, because of the Qi family's property, many courtiers have benefited from them a lot, and they don't want to tear themselves apart at this time.

It's just that they are also greedy, wanting money from the Qi family, but also afraid that if Zhao Liang succeeds to the throne, they will settle accounts with them.On the surface, they still need to establish a good relationship with Zhao Liang.

As a result, in order to save people's hearts, Zhao Yan asked the Qi family for more money to buy off these courtiers.

The income of the Qi family has not increased, but Zhao Yan is asking for money from them like water, which is not very happy.

Later, Zhao Yan got annoyed, so she asked Qi Qingwan to talk.

Qi Qingwan went there once or twice, but then she didn't want to go again, and she and Zhao Yan had a quarrel because of this matter.

Although Zhao Yan was a prince, he wanted something from the Qi family, and even though he had run into trouble with Qi Qingwan, he couldn't get angry with her.

It's just that he hated Qi Qingwan more and more in his heart, and gradually he didn't want to live in her courtyard, and he often went out to drink flowers and wine like before before he was married.

Qi Qingwan is also very jealous, once she finds out, there will be a lot of trouble.

So much so that the two are now like enemies, and they don't even want to say a few words when they meet.

It has been half a year since Qi Qingwan married into the royal family, but her stomach has not moved.

In half a year, if there is still no child, Zhao Yan's concubine will come in.

Back then, Qi Qingwan and Zhao Yan had such a bad relationship, so they must have no heirs.The concubine who came that night might climb on top of her.

On this day, Qi Qingwan was called home by her mother. As soon as she entered the house, she saw all the chiefs of the Qi family gathered together.

Qi Qingwan was startled, and sat beside her mother.Then the patriarch of the family said: "I called you back today to discuss something with you. Now that you have been married for half a year, it's time for him to take a concubine."

"If this concubine's family is from another family, if you give birth to a son and a half daughter in advance, it will not benefit you, so why not choose another one from the Qi family. They are all from the same line, and it will not affect the status of the Qi family."

Qi Qingwan didn't expect to hear such news when she returned home today, so she couldn't help but refute immediately.But he was pulled by his mother and said: "This concubine must choose, but for this person, I think it's better to go out of my room."

As she spoke, she pointed to Qi Qingwan's younger brother and said: "My elder brother is seventeen years old. He is the son of Qingwan and his mother. He has a good relationship. He is also proficient in all kinds of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, so he is a suitable candidate."

Qi Qingwan was struck by lightning, she never expected that her mother would give her younger brother to her husband as a concubine.

But she wanted to object, but everyone didn't take her opinion to heart at all. After some discussion, the matter was settled.

Half a month later, Zhao Yan married another newcomer, also from the Qi family, who was Qi Qingwan's younger brother.

This younger brother's temperament is much gentler than Qi Qingwan's, and Zhao Yan likes it very much, and the relationship between Zhao Yan and the Qi family has also repaired a lot.

Mrs. Qi and her two children married into the royal family, so they are still arrogant.

But Qi Qingwan is much haggard, and she is not as glamorous as before.

Not more than a month later, news came from Zhao Yan's residence that the newly married brother Qi was pregnant.

Zhao Yan was very happy, so he held a big banquet for three days, and even the emperor rewarded him with things after he knew about it.

It was a great joy, but something happened on the third day of the banquet.

It turned out that Qi Qingwan was found early in the morning by the servant girl and hanged to death under her own beam.

Before the Zhao family had a baby, Zhao Yan's wife hanged himself and died, which caused a lot of discussion in the capital.

Qi Qingwan has only been married for half a year, and she did such a thing that shamed the royal family.

The emperor was furious when he heard about this, and severely reprimanded Empress Qi, saying that she was blind, and that the daughter-in-law she chose for Zhao Yan was useless, and she lost all the Zhao family.

He also took this opportunity to severely reprimand Qi Gong, saying that his family has no way to raise children and has lost virtue.

At this time, several imperial historians came up to the stage, took out a few notebooks and impeached the Qi family.Among them are the Qi family's manipulation of the salt business to seek improper benefits from it, evading taxes and other heavy responsibilities.

Immediately, the emperor asked Duke Qi to dismiss his official position and go home, and took over the salt affairs supervised by the Qi family. His actions were so fast that people were caught off guard.

Before Zhao Yan could react, he was confined to his home, and his military duties were temporarily removed from his hands.

When the matter developed to this point, everyone thought that Zhao Yan and the Qi family were exhausted, and the palace should be dominated by the second prince Zhao Liang from now on.

But after this incident, but a few days later, just a week before the Chunwei exam, the emperor suddenly fell ill.

Not only did the disease come on suddenly, but it was also very serious.The emperor did not go to court for a few days, but only occasionally invited a few confidant courtiers into the palace to discuss matters.

The emperor was ill, and Zhao Yan, who had been idle at home, entered the palace to serve him on the grounds of filial piety.

In order to please the emperor, he was naturally very attentive in serving him. Therefore, the emperor was very happy, and his attitude towards Zhao Yan was much more peaceful, and he looked like a loving father and a filial son.The courtiers who had already turned to Zhao Liang were shaken again.

When the emperor was seriously ill, Zhao Liang happened to be sent out to work.

However, after returning home three days late, when he got the news, when he wanted to visit the palace, he was stopped by the palace officials.It is said that the emperor is weak now and is very afraid of noise, so he doesn't need so many people to come in to accompany him.

Zhao Liang felt that this matter was different, but now he could only obey orders and could not force his way into the palace.

After discussing with Xie Huaiyu and Qi Qinyue, Zhao Liang said: "Now I can't see my father, and I don't know what he is like. I just heard from the informant in the palace that His Majesty is sober now, but The spirit is very bad, so I don't need to worry too much."

Xie Huaiyu thought for a while and said: "That should be the case. The emperor is not such a fatuous person. To suppress such a big matter of the Qi family, the Qi family should have a backup and should be prepared. But you should also be vigilant. Wherever you need money and food, just come to me."

"Naturally." Zhao Liang nodded and said, "Brother Ruishi, you will want Chunxie in the future, so don't worry too much about me. Remember to perform well in the examination room."

Xie Huaiyu smiled and said: "Brother Zhongli, Ruishi will not disgrace his life, so you can rest assured."
