Yu Jun

The fragrance of ink appeared in the study, breaking the stagnant atmosphere. Cheng Ting was polishing the ink, Wu Jin was writing, and Mrs. Cheng was the mediator.

Mrs. Cheng glanced at Wu's mother and said after careful consideration: "Wu Jin, the scribe of the marriage contract, is a native of Kuanzhou Prefecture. He is twenty-five years old and unmarried. I would like to invite you to marry into the Mo Mansion of Kuanzhou Prefecture with the daughter of the Mo family." Don’t listen to the wind as your husband.”

Wu's mother looked at Wu Jin's writing and suddenly found an injury on the finger of Wu Jin's left hand.

She actually saw it just now.

When did you do it?

Where did you get it?

Also, when he goes out, he doesn’t seem to be wearing this outfit!

Is the sudden mention of getting married related to his injury?

She opened her mouth, but didn't say anything in the end - the higher Wu Jin stood, the farther away he was from this family. He was no longer inseparable from this family like when he was selling cakes. Only they, as parents, were left. Concerned about my son.

Mrs. Cheng continued: "The Mo family paid a gift of 100,000 yuan to pay for the Wu family's son——"

"No!" Mother Wu's face suddenly became sharp, her eyes piercing Mrs. Cheng like knives.

Mrs. Cheng was startled and said quickly: "Sister-in-law, the gift money can be discussed later."

Wu's mother shook her head: "We don't want a penny. He wants to write the document, but our family will not sell our son!"

Mrs. Cheng smiled and said, "Since my sister-in-law said so, just wipe off the gift money."

She continued: "The assets of the Wu family were owned by the son of his brother Wu Yi. Wu Jin was brought into the family to take charge of the errands. He was just like his half-son. He served in the ancestral temple and succeeded to the descendants. He helped manage the family property. If he regretted his deviant words, he was kicked out of the house and beaten with sticks. Death, no words, rolling stones on high mountains, never looking back.

I was afraid that I would have no proof later, so I took this marriage contract document as evidence.

The author of the book was Wu Jin. "

After Wu Jin finished writing, he copied two more copies, and then he and Mrs. Cheng signed them. Then he left one copy for the Wu family, and the three Cheng family members took the other copy and left.

Wu's mother walked out of the study with the documents and looked up to the sky. The night had turned into thick ink, and dark clouds were falling heavily, pressing on the animals on the eaves of the magistrate's office. Those made of stone, wood carvings, and clay were almost crushed by the thick clouds.鑑粉.

"Boom", there was a thunderous sound, and then a bolt of lightning pierced the sky, illuminating her pale face as white as snow. She shivered in the sudden cold wind, feeling that she was going to be shattered by the lightning and thunder.

Her heart felt like wet cotton, making her breathless. She folded the paperwork and stuffed it into her arms, and hit her chest with her fist.

"Aniang," Wu Jin opened an umbrella to prevent the rain from being blown into the verandah by the wind. He stepped forward to help Wu Mu, and the umbrella was tilted over Wu Mu's head. "Aniang, my marriage has already been tied to General Mo." The extraneous documents on my body are not too much."

The heavy rain poured down, and the heat of the day was swept away. The rain curtain covered everything. Wu Mu was wrapped in a moist and cold darkness, and her heart was as sharp as a knife.

She nodded, and then shook her head: "You don't understand... You got married for the sake of a woman..."

She wanted to say that Wu Jin gave up his future for a woman, his talent, his appearance, the happiness he could have had with his children and grandchildren, and his smooth life, all were ruined in this piece of paper.

But Wu Jin doesn't care about these things.

Finally, she said tremblingly: "Boss, you are stupid!"

The raindrops hit the umbrella and made a crackling sound. Wu Jin said softly: "Auntie, everyone has a steelyard in their heart. What is light and heavy in the world depends entirely on one's own heart."

He smiled bitterly and said: "How can a person control his own heart?"

After hearing this, Wu's mother was speechless for a long time, and finally asked with confusion, "Surely the Cheng family won't tell anyone?"

"Don't worry, the Cheng family wants this document not to embarrass me, but to give General Mo a sense of security." "That's good...that's good..." Mother Wu stretched out her hand to press the hot document in her arms. Self-deception.

Just pretend that there is no such thing, Wu Jin is just not married and has not married.

She stopped talking and just followed Wu Jin. She didn't know how to tell Wu's father. When she returned to the backyard, she fell to the ground before he even entered the door.

Wu's mother had been ill for a month, and Wu Jin was serving the soup. Wu Yi and his wife did not dare to slack off, and went in and out of the magistrate's office every day. After he got married, he built a second-level house outside.

By mid-October, Wu's mother recovered from her illness, and Wu Jin got the news about Hengshan's gunpowder operation. He immediately rode out and met Mo Lingfeng and Cheng Ting at the foot shop at the gate of the city.

Cheng Ting took refuge in Jeju, but was sent over by Shi Yuan. He sat sideways on a bench, poured tea and water with a low eyebrow, pushed a cup of tea to Wu Jin, and handed a cup of sugar water to Mo Lingfeng. The guy with triangular eyes stood aside, almost like a decoration.

Cheng Ting brought a bowl of mutton noodles to Mo Lingfeng: "After one year, you can eat meat. Let's make up for it."

He gave Wu Jin another bowl of mutton noodles with a frown, coughed, and poured him a plate of black beans: "I brought back a few baskets of oranges from the Jeju Pier and sent them to your home."

Wu Jin and Mo Lingfeng both sat motionless with expressionless faces, letting him manipulate them.

Cheng Ting brought a few dishes of side dishes to the table, with a sour smile on his face, waving his hands repeatedly, and asked the two of them to start eating.

Mo Lingfeng picked up the chopsticks, picked up a mouthful of hot noodle soup and put it into his mouth.

Wu Jin picked up the chopsticks, put a piece of eggplant bream into Cheng Ting's bowl, and said with a smile: "Eat it."

Cheng Ting felt relieved, lowered the corner of his mouth when he was tired of smiling, and started eating happily.

The three of them were concentrating on eating. The guy with triangular eyes was standing busy next to them. Someone was drinking, so he trotted outside to drink.

Wu Jin took the leftover half of the vegetable cake from Mo Lingfeng and took a bite. Cheng Ting put down his chopsticks first, took out a crumpled piece of paper and stuffed it into Wu Jin, lowering his voice: "Shi Yuan said these are two kinds of silver powder. of counterweight.”

Wu Jin took the cake in one hand and the bamboo paper in the other. Without opening it, she handed it directly to Mo Lingfeng. After finishing the last bite of the cake, he picked up the handkerchief to wipe his mouth, put down the handkerchief, raised his eyelids and glanced at the triangular eyes at the door. Guy: "Got it."

He turned to look at Mo Lingfeng: "The gunpowder operator will not move for the time being, and we will wait until a military exploit that is known to the world before taking action."

He approached Mo Lingfeng and lowered his voice: "Is it possible to achieve military exploits?"

Mo Lingfeng Danfeng's eyes were dark and he nodded calmly: "Yes."

When Wu Jin saw the clerk coming in, he stopped talking about the matter and asked Cheng Ting: "Shi Yuan and Liu Boyu got married at the Jeju pier?"

Cheng Ting slapped the table: "Liu Boyu, you son of a bitch! He's jumping up and down in Jeju like a monkey, raking in overseas goods. He's also jealous of Shi Yuan's workshop business. He wants to get a piece of the pie and crashes Shi Yuan's boat on the dock!"

After hearing this insignificant news, the triangular-eyed boy moved aside to clean the table.

Cheng Ting described the grudges between Liu Boyu and Shi Yuan in great detail. He also mentioned that there was a vicious dog next to Liu Boyu, which stared at Shi Yuan and bit him twice.

Just as he was talking with great interest, Pang Dahai rushed in with the wind: "Third Master, the big yellow dog is gone."

Cheng Ting took a sip of tea and said, "Go to the state to study. There is a lecture today, and Lao Huang loves to join in the fun."

Pang Dahai paused for a moment: "Third Master... the dog is dead. It was lying beside the young master's bed and disappeared without making a sound."
