big dry son-in-law

Chapter 485 Xiaochai’s Marriage

After lunch at Chai's house, Qin Mo chatted with Chai Shao.

"Dad hasn't written back for several days, and I don't know how he is in the northwest!" Chai Rong's eyes were full of worry.

"Don't worry. There are people at Six Doors in the northwest who report information every three days. My father-in-law has done a good job. Although there is a locust plague, over time, the losses have been controlled within a tolerable range."

The locust plague is easy to control, but the real difficulty is the drought. This drought may affect many places.

Then there was the terrible food shortage.

Qin Mo is not a god and cannot produce food out of thin air, so the well digging movement is imperative.

"Then I'll be relieved." Chai Sitian also breathed a sigh of relief.

"Oh, by the way, Xiaochai, my father-in-law also said, let me ask you whose lady you like!"

Chai Rong immediately lowered his head, a little embarrassed, "This, this"

"Brother, what's the point of being embarrassed about? Just tell me. When dad comes back, I'll help you propose marriage!"

Chai Rong won the crown last year and will be able to start a family long ago.

No one in the Chai family dared to touch her before, so Chai Shao asked Chai Rong to take in two maids, but so far there has been no movement.

The most important thing is that Chai Sitian will marry Qin Mo in June. It is against the rules for him, the elder brother, not to get married in advance.

This is why Chai Shao asked Qin Mo for help in his letter.

"If my father-in-law doesn't come back, I will help you propose marriage!" Qin Mo said: "The key is, do you have someone you like?"

"Yes, yes, yes, yes."

"Whose family does it belong to?" Chai Sitian was anxious.

"I like Xiao Dou's sister!" Chai Rong blushed furiously.

"You mean Dou Mei?"

"Yes, yes!" Chai Rong nodded shyly.

A tall woman flashed in Qin Mo's mind. Dou Xuanling had two legitimate sons, two concubines, and two legitimate daughters.

Dou Mei did not inherit Dou Xuanling at all. Like Mrs. Dou, she was very tough.

But he is not ugly, he just likes to wield swords and guns, and his martial arts skills are amazing.

The kind who can compete with Dou Jianming.

Qin Mo gave a thumbs up, "I know how to choose. Dou Mei is good. He has a big butt and can give birth to children. However, Dou Mei has certain requirements when recruiting a son-in-law. He must be able to fight. How many blows can you withstand her?"

That's right, Dou Mei likes to carry two large copper hammers weighing tens of kilograms. She is simply the female version of Li Yuanba!
"I know, so I don't have any hope!" Chai Rong said.

"Brother, forget it, our family will just point to you to continue the family line, and forget it about Dou Mei!" Chai Sitian said.

"Xiao Dou, why do you like Dou Mei?" This is what Qin Mo is most curious about.

Chai Rong recalled the first time he met Dou Mei and smiled happily, "That day, she came to the military camp carrying two copper hammers and said she wanted to join the army."

After Chai Rong's explanation, Qin Mo finally understood that Chai Rong was attracted by her super strength.

This kid had a hard time growing up and was bullied badly by the Hou family. When he met a woman like Dou Mei who could knock people away with a copper hammer but was not ugly, he fell in love with her at first sight.

"Brother Qin, Dou Mei is a strange woman. People like me are too mediocre!" Chai Rong sighed.

Seeing Chai Rong's infatuated look, Qin Mo said: "Man, if you like me, go for it. I'm afraid of getting upset. After the Qingming Festival, I'll go talk to Lao Dou in person!"

Qin Mo didn't leave until it was getting late. After all, it was Qingming Festival, and some customs still had to be respected.

April [-]th, Qingming Festival!
Early in the morning, Qin Mo was called over. He first went to visit his mother's grave, and then went to Qinzhuang to pay homage to his ancestors. .

Then the whole family has a big dinner.

Thousands of people, very lively.

Qin Xianggui and others even deliberately put on official uniforms to inform their ancestors.Qin Mo was in a very depressed mood and returned home early.

Gao Yao stayed by Qin Mo's side. This was the second time she felt lonely from Qin Mo.

Qin Mo sat on the steps, quietly in a daze, the Qingming fruit in his hand had gone cold. No one knew that there were two tablets hidden in his study.

"Master, do you miss the old lady?"

Qin Mo sniffed, quickly turned his head away, wiped his tears, "Yeah!"

The thick nasal voice made Gao Yao feel sour.

Qin Mo handed over the Qingming fruit, "Xiao Gao, have you met your parents?"

"Master, Xiao Gao has been raised by Duke Gao since he was a child. To Xiao Gao, Duke Gao is both his father and mother.

My biological father and mother were already dead the moment they abandoned me! Gao Yao said.

Qin Mo picked up a Qingtuan ball and stuffed it into his mouth, "It doesn't matter, your parents don't want you, the young master wants you!"

Gao Yao looked at Qin Mo blankly, his eyes becoming gentler, "Master, don't be sad. If the old lady knows that you are so good now, she will definitely be happy."

Qin Mo stood up and patted Gao Yao's shoulder, "Thank you, Xiao Gao. The young master feels much better!"

Gao Yao also added in his heart, "Master, Xiao Gao, thank you too!"

The next day, Qin Mo was picked up by Qin Xiangru while he was still sleeping and taken to court.

Qin Mo stood in the second row with Haqie in his arms. His position as the Commander-in-Chief was enough to put him on par with the Six Ministers.

The main thing is that now that I'm a senior official, I can't sleep on the side.

"Hey, uncle, have you returned to the palace?" Qin Mo deliberately pretended to be surprised when he saw Gongsun Wuji.

"Thanks to you!" Gongsun Wuji said with a smile.

"That's true!" Qin Mo nodded happily, "By the way, uncle, I'm a little sleepy. Come over here and help me block it. I'll squint for a while!"

Gongsun Wuji's face darkened and he turned his head.

"No, no, why are you so embarrassed, Xiu'er, why are you staring at me and wanting to stand by me? Tell me, how do I know you want to come over if you don't tell me?" Qin Mo said with a pun.

The bystanders couldn't help laughing after hearing this.

"Summer insects can't talk about ice!" Ji Zhisheng waved his sleeves angrily.

"Okay Jingyun, Lao Ji almost got sick because of the military parade, which caused so many troubles in the past two days!" Cheng Sanaxe reminded: "I guess your majesty will reward you for your merits today. You have made a decision." Great work, you must not make mistakes, do you understand?"

Qin Mo said with a vigilant look: "What, you want to reward based on merit?"

Li Yue also came over and said: "The Duke can't escape. There must be a villain who wants to provoke you. Be patient, do you understand?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Shilong came, and Li Yue quickly returned to his seat.

After a military parade, Li Shilong clearly felt that his control over the court had improved to a higher level.

His whole person also became more domineering and tough.

Seeing Qin Mo standing there, he was particularly satisfied. This brat didn't sleep today. He is very sensible and deserves a reward!

After everyone saw the ceremony, Li Shilong said: "Is there something important to be announced?"

"I have the original play!"

Tang Jian came out and said, "Your Majesty, the military parade has passed, the credentials of the states have been submitted, and the countries in Zhenla have agreed to trade requests, agreed to open mutual markets and set up tax points across the border.

At the same time, they agreed to establish a Honglu Pavilion in their capital.

At present, only Tubo and Japan have not agreed to open trade routes and establish Honglu Pavilion! "
