Sir, I just want to be a salted fish

Chapter 211 Promotion
The next morning, twins Kangkang and An'an, who had not seen their mother for two days, were crying and asking for Tang Bingxuan. Mrs. Hou couldn't bear the children's crying and planned to take them to the three-bedroom courtyard to talk to Tang Bingxuan through the door.

The grandfather and grandson entered the third-room courtyard. Tang Bingxuan, who was sick with cold and resting, had already gone to the ground and seemed to be in good condition.

When the twins saw Tang Bingxuan standing safely at the door of the house, they smiled and watched them running quickly into Tang Bingxuan's arms, "Mother."

Mrs. Qiao, the Marquis of Yongning, was overjoyed to see her healthy daughter-in-law and grabbed Tang Bingxuan who came forward to salute her.

"Xuan'er looks much better, but is she still feeling uncomfortable?"

The day before yesterday, her daughter-in-law suddenly asked the maid to take the children to the main courtyard. Mrs. Hou was shocked at that time, because she was afraid that Tang Bingxuan was not feeling well and that it would not be good for her to help her old age.

I wanted to come to the third room to visit the patient in person, but I was afraid that I would bring back the illness and pass it on to the children, so I could only send my maid to visit.

Hearing that Tang Bingxuan, who was only replying outside the house and could still be heard in the inner room, kept coughing, Mrs. Hou was playing happily with the children on the surface, but she was extremely anxious in her heart, but within two days, there were bubbles at the corners of her mouth.

Tang Bingxuan walked into the house holding her mother-in-law Qiao's arm, "Thank you for your concern, mother. My daughter-in-law is fine."

"As the saying goes, illness goes away like threads, but you still have to take good care of yourself."

Mrs. Hou looked at Tang Bingxuan carefully, and she didn't seem as serious as she heard. She looked at her daughter-in-law with a teasing smile.

"Yesterday when Shu Nian came back, your illness was very good. I think your illness was caused by missing you. You will be fine when you come back."

Tang Bingxuan smiled and said nothing at her mother-in-law's joke, quite acquiescing to it.

When the twins saw their mother healthy, they threw away their worries and ate fruits freely beside their grandmother and mother.

"Grandma, is daddy back? Why haven't we seen him?"

Jiang Shunian came back yesterday and went straight back to his yard. When he heard that Tang Bingxuan was missing, he immediately went out to look for someone, without even bothering to say hello to his mother and children.

Today I got up early to go to the palace for duty. Naturally, the father and son missed it again.

Mrs. Hou only found out about Jiang Shunian's return to the mansion yesterday after being told by the maid next to her. Later, she left the mansion in a hurry for some unknown reason. She guessed that it was an urgent errand arranged by the Holy Emperor.

"Your father came back yesterday afternoon. He was busy with something important and didn't see you. Dad told your mother that he would come back today at the end of the day to buy you Chenji Red Date Cake from East Street."

Because Zhidong’s craftsmanship is so good, my family rarely buys snacks outside. Chenji Red Date Cake on Dongda Street is a century-old store. Their red date cake is one of the best in Kyoto, and the children especially like to eat it.

An An clapped her hands happily, "Daddy is so good."

Young Master Kangkang looked at Mrs. Hou and said, "Grandma, let's have dinner here and let Aunt Zhidong cook more delicious dishes to celebrate daddy's return home."

Mrs. Hou smiled and told the children, "Okay, you go find Aunt Zhidong to prepare a menu and prepare a banquet. We will have a banquet when your father gets off duty."

After sending the children away, Mrs. Hou took Tang Bingxuan's hand and continued talking about home affairs.

"Our mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have been as close as mother and daughter over the years, and mother won't go around the bush with you.

Your aunt, Mrs. Cheng Guogong, came to me yesterday and asked me to help Zhensheng find a good marriage.

In the past few years, I have left my middle child completely to your sister-in-law. I really don’t know much about the situation of unengaged girls in Kyoto today. " At this point, Mrs. Hou paused and continued: "Your aunt heard that Concubine Yun asked the Queen Mother to choose a princess for her son, King Ling Yu of Qin. The Queen Mother left this matter to the Queen Mother;

What your aunt means is to ask you and the Queen to bring a message and settle Zhensheng's marriage at that time. "

Qiao Zhensheng, the eldest son of Duke Chengguo, is twenty-four years old this year. Mrs. Cai, the wife of Duke Chengguo, is almost worried about her son's marriage, but the person involved doesn't take it to heart.

Seeing that the sons she handed over with handkerchiefs in the past became biological children and began to enjoy the joy of making love with their grandchildren. Her son was still a bachelor. One can imagine how Cai felt.

"Does mother know why my cousin has not married for many years, and my uncle also acquiesced in not urging her?"

The reason why Tang Bingxuan's eldest brother Tang Wensong got married at an older age was because he was emotionally hurt at the beginning and then went to the border for training;

Jiang Shuhuai was delayed because his parents were not in Kyoto and it was difficult to make arrangements, and he stubbornly wanted to imitate Jiang Shunian and wanted to have a good meal without being afraid of being late in finding a good match.

Regardless of the fact that these two people are two or three years younger than Qiao Zhensheng, and are now married and have families, Tang Bingxuan has never heard that Qiao Zhensheng, the eldest son of Duke Chengguo, has been engaged in the past few years.

When Mrs. Hou heard this, she couldn't help but feel resentful in her heart, "I also wonder what the father and son are thinking. Every time I ask, they are not in a hurry, but your aunt and I are very worried."

It would be fine if Qiao Zhensheng himself did not want to get married. The head of the family, Cheng Guogong, also agreed. Even if Mrs. Cai, the wife of Cheng Guogong, had no intention of getting married, it would not matter.

"Mother, this matter is nothing. When the time comes, I will tell the Queen and ask her to help select a noble lady for marriage;

But, can my aunt obtain the consent of my uncle and cousin this time? Don't let us complain when the time comes. "

Mrs. Hou was overjoyed when she heard that Tang Bingxuan agreed to this matter, and said quickly: "I asked, I asked directly in front of your uncle and aunt, otherwise it would be difficult for you if something went wrong."

Mrs. Hou is a gentle and warm-hearted person, but she is also a sensible person who can distinguish between those who are close and those who are far away.

Since the two heads of the Chengguo Palace had this intention, Tang Bingxuan was happy to be a favor.

Ling Guo is selecting a concubine for the prince. Her family background, appearance, and character are all excellent. When the time comes, the queen will be asked to help select a few candidates for the Duke of Cheng to choose.

"Then my daughter-in-law will go to the palace tomorrow to visit the Queen."

....
Jiang Shunian was on duty in the palace today and was distracted all the time. He never thought about who was thinking about his wife. There were more or less people in Kyoto who had the ability and courage to plan and abduct people.

A relative of the emperor or a powerful official or noble family may have the ability to steal people in the Hou Mansion quietly. Jiang Shunian has already added a few more guards to the third room of the Hou Mansion, and has been training female guards.

The manpower of father-in-law Rong Guogong and uncle Tang Wensong is mostly visible. When investigating the masked man, it is easy to attract the attention of other political opponents, etc. The gain outweighs the loss.

The number of people he has now is much less than when he was under Mr. Tang San, and many things are not as convenient as before.

Jiang Shunian felt angry at the thought of someone who was missing his wife somewhere. It seemed that he not only needed to increase his manpower as soon as possible, but also asked Mr. Tang San to borrow some talented people.

Jiang Shunian, a popular figure in the imperial court who had just taken office, seemed to others to be neglecting his duties and being distracted, but no one came forward to criticize him.

I heard that on the way back to the city, Jiang Shunian made appropriate arrangements and saved the enemy. The Holy Emperor intended to promote him to the position of deputy commander of the Forbidden Army. He was about to get a promotion and a salary increase. He was really jealous!
