peasant girl wedding

Chapter 227 Placement
Tong Zhixin and the others looked at each other in blank dismay, but remained silent for a while.

Tong Zhiming's move is nothing more than asking for money in a different way.

Seeing that a few people were silent, Tong Zhiming said: "Fourth brother, after these days, the fifth brother will take good care of my mother. Mother can walk because he helped her to practice day by day, not to mention that mother is still walking." I took care of you when I was lying on the bed..."

Tong Zhixin looked at Tong Zhiyi.

It's been a long time since I took a close look at this youngest brother, the youngest son who was held in the palm of the old lady back then, now he has become pleasing to the eye, reticent, even afraid to exhale loudly.

"Fifth brother..."

Tong Zhixin spoke.

Tong Zhiyi raised his head, and called out in a nonchalant manner, "Fourth brother."

Tong Zhixin looked at him, feeling a lot of emotion in his heart.

"Would you like to cook for your mother?"

Tong Zhiyi nodded first, then shook his head again.

When Tong Zhiming at the side saw him nodding, he didn't get over his joy, but was enraged by Tong Zhiyi's subsequent shaking of his head.

He secretly tugged at his waist, and said to Tong Zhidao with a smile: "Fourth brother, fifth brother, he agreed."

Tong Zhixin ignored him, and looked straight at Tong Zhiyi.

Tong Zhiming pushed Tong Zhiyi and said, "Old Wu, talk to me, would you like to cook for your mother?"

"I am willing, of course, but the dishes I cook are not delicious."

Tong Zhiyi said sullenly.

Tong Zhixin looked at him for a while, and said: "Fifth brother, if you have the heart, I will leave your mother's food to you. This is five taels of silver. You can buy some delicious food for mother."

Tong Zhiyi looked at Tong Zhixin in a daze.

Tong Zhiming stepped forward to take the money, but Tong Zhixin refused to give it to him.

Tong Zhiming made a fuss and stood aside resentfully.

"Fifth brother, take..."

Tong Zhixin stretched out his hand to Tong Zhiyi.

……

"Father, why did you give them money?"

After Tong Zhiming and Tong Zhiyi left, Tong Zhu'er pouted and said dissatisfied.

"I took a look, your fifth uncle, it has changed."

Tong Zhu'er didn't speak.

Fang Cui smiled and said: "Your father has a sense of propriety, we have to leave for the capital tomorrow, so don't worry about these things. Pearl, go and check if there is anything left behind, and don't go to see your master at that time , only to find that things were left at home.”

After saying that, Tong Zhu'er rushed back to her room to investigate.

Early the next morning, when it was still daylight, Tong Zhixin's family set off from home.

Fang Cuiwei, Tong Zhi'er and Tong Zhu'er were sitting in the carriage, while Tong Zhixin was driving outside.

Tong Duo'er and Dong Ping stayed at home, busy with the pharmacy opened by Dong Ping.

Tong Zhaofu is preparing for his studies in the academy, and it is a good time for him to study. Tong Zhixin and others don't want him to waste his studies.

Fang Cuiwei was seasick, the last time he went to the capital to catch up, Fang Cuiwei endured it.

This time, the family was not in a hurry to resettle in the capital, the big guys just sat in the carriage.

Stopping and stopping along the way, it took about half a month to arrive.

As soon as they arrived at the gate of the city, someone walked up to Tong Zhixin and the others.

"Excuse me, is this the Qingzhou Tong family?"

Tong Zhixin jumped off the carriage and asked, "Are you..."

"We are the servants of Ji's Mansion. The prince said that Master Tong and Mrs. Tong are going to come to the capital, so we are asked to wait here. Master Tong, please."

Tong Zhixin cupped his fists and said, "Thank you very much."

Tong Zhixin returned to the shaft of the chariot, followed the housekeeper and others into the city.

Speaking of which, this is the first time that Tong Zhixin is like the capital, everything is very fresh.

Looking at the spacious avenue, the shops lined up on the street, the countless street stalls, and the crowd rubbing shoulders, he sighed in his heart: The capital is really lively.

The servants of the Ji Mansion took Tong Zhixin to a private house and stopped.

"Master Tong, this is the house that the son specially arranged for Master Tong and his wife. Everything in it has been arranged properly. If you two are not satisfied, just tell the younger ones."

Tong Zhixin nodded and asked the servants to convey their thanks to Ji Li.

Fang Cuiwei and the others got off the carriage one after another.

Immediately, several servants helped put the salute on the carriage into the house.

"Master Tong, Mrs. Tong, Miss Tong, are you satisfied?"

In the room, a person asked respectfully.

Tong Zhixin smiled, "Satisfied."

"Since this is the case, the young ones should go back to the mansion first to return the order to the prince, and then clean up the dust for a few in the evening."

"It's troublesome."

Several people quickly left the house.

Fang Cuiwei found that there were three other people in the house.

One is a middle-aged man, one is a middle-aged woman, and the other is a very young girl.

"I have seen the master, I have seen my wife, I have seen the two ladies."

Three servants came to salute.

"You are……"

"Returning to Madam, the younger one is the housekeeper arranged by the son, surnamed Wu."

"The younger one is the cook arranged by the son, and the wife can just call the younger Miss Wu."

The young girl smiled at Fang Cui, "Ma'am, the youngest is Wu Xiaotao, who takes care of the two ladies' daily life."

They are all surnamed Wu, which shows that they are a family.

Tong Zhier asked with a smile.

Butler Wu nodded, "Second Miss guessed right."

The inside of the house is very clean and well-furnished, it can be seen that it has been done with care.

"Master, madam, what orders do the two ladies have?"

Tong Zhixin and Fang Cuiwei shook their heads.

They are all used to doing things by themselves, so it's a little uncomfortable to ask others to clean up the house.

Tong Zhi'er took a step forward and commanded: "Butler Wu, Mrs. Wu, just keep busy packing your luggage. Xiao Tao, follow us to the room to pack."

The three of them were very happy to receive Tong Zhi'er's order. Steward Wu and Lady Wu took the luggage and started packing. Tong Zhixin and Fang Cuiwei were only stunned for a while before going over to help.

Butler Wu and the two of them didn't feel any discomfort or strangeness about this, and they still had smiles on their faces.

Tong Zhi'er thought, the family of three arranged by Ji Li in the house all have good personalities.

"Pearl, little Tao, let's go inside and have a look."

Tong Zhi'er walked to the side room.

The layout of the whole house is not particularly large, the entrance is a small yard, the back is the main room, and there are two wing rooms on the left and right sides, Tong Zhi'er is going to the right wing room at this time.

The size of the wing room is moderate, and a screen divides it into two spaces. On the left is a table and a couch, and going around the screen to the right is a bed, a cabinet and a dressing table.

The layout of the other wing is the same.

Tong Zhi'er and Tong Zhu'er each asked for a room, one was in the first room on the right and the other was in the second room on the right.

Xiao Tao is a capable girl, her hands and feet are smooth, and she tidied up their rooms in a short while.

Tong Zhi'er and Tong Zhu'er started walking around the whole house.

Behind the wing room is a large yard, in which two jujube trees are planted, a stone table and four stone benches are placed under the jujube tree, and there is a row of huts behind.

The hut consists of three rooms, one is the kitchen, the other is the woodshed, and the other is empty with some sundries in it.Both sides of the hut are covered with bricks, it is not high, and you can see the bamboo planted behind it.

Tong Zhi'er and Tong Zhu'er walked in through a small door that was open next to the woodshed.

What catches the eye is the verdant green.

There are large tracts of bamboo, and the border cannot be seen at a glance.

There is a path paved with stones in the bamboo grove. Tong Zhi'er and Tong Zhu'er went inside and walked to about the middle, leaving an open space. The ground was paved with stones, and there was a stone table in the middle. There are four long stone benches.

Tong Zhi'er's eyes sparkled.

I don’t know, I’m scared.

This house looks no different from the outside, but inside, who would have thought it would be different.

Tong Zhi'er immediately fell in love with this place arranged by Ji Li.

Xiao Tao took her look into his eyes and said with a smile: "It's as long as the second girl likes it. This house took a long time to decorate."

"Huh? Sister... Your family knows we will come?"

Tong Zhu'er originally wanted to call her brother-in-law, but Tong Zhi'er hadn't married Ji Li yet, in front of Xiao Tao, Tong Zhu'er changed her words again, saying so.

Xiaotao smiled, "The prince said, the master and wife love their daughters very much, and the second girl married far away, so she must be homesick. If the master and wife come to live in the capital for a year or so, If the second girl is happy, the master and wife will be happy too."

Tong Zhu'er winked at Tong Zhi'er.

Tong Zhi'er was stunned for a moment, and a touch of sweetness welled up in her heart.

She looked towards the other side of the stone path in the bamboo forest, knowing that today she would not be able to see all of it, and Tong Zhixin and Fang Cuiwei should have been prepared in the same way, so the three of them came out of the bamboo forest. Pass the backyard and go back to the main room.

At this moment, Tong Zhixin and Fang Cuiwei happened to be sitting in the main room, with Butler Wu and Lady Wu standing beside them.

"Zhi'er, Zhu'er, where have you been?"

Seeing the two people approaching, Fang Cuiwei stood up, smiled and said.

Tong Zhi'er smiled, "Zhu'er and I walked around the house, there is a big bamboo forest behind this house."

"Really?" Fang Cuiwei also looked happy.

The four were talking in the room, and after a while, Ji Li came.

At the same time, Mrs. Ji and Ji Chang stood in front of him.

Tong Zhi'er had seen Marshal Ji before he led the troops out, and now that he saw him, he recognized him immediately.

"Master Tong, Madam Tong..."

Ji Chang smiled and said, his laughter was hearty, with the freedom and wantonness of a soldier.

Tong Zhixin and Fang Cuiwei stepped forward, "Master, Mrs. Duke..."

After the elders greeted each other, it was the younger generation's turn.

First came Ji Li, followed by Tong Zhi'er and Tong Zhu'er.

When Tong Zhi'er was presenting the ceremony, Ji Chang took a few extra glances at her.

It is not the first time that Tong Zhi'er has seen Ji Chang, but it is the first time that Ji Chang has seen Tong Zhi'er.

This girl was born with delicate features and well-behaved manners, she was exactly as Madam described, she did not look like a peasant girl, but a lady from a rich family.
