Huang Jue, after three marriages

Chapter 338
Dewanglou has been open in Jinzhou City for decades, and it has some famous specialty dishes.

The salty donkey meat is extremely delicious.

After Xie Jue tasted a few of them, he ordered some good ones to take away, especially the salted donkey meat for the store to take away.

While waiting for the store to pack it, I heard a commotion in the box next to it, presumably a lot of people went in.

First, there was a small talk, then various greetings, and then a woman who was already in a high grade but still spoke in a girlish tone lamented that her nephew and niece were all so old.

Then, under the questioning of several people, he talked about his luxurious life in the capital and border towns with pride and show off.

Xie Jue turned the teacup in his hand, leaned on the back of the chair and listened to the conversation in the box next to him, the corners of his lips curled up slightly.

I remember that Mr. Fu once said that if you marry a wife and marry a virtuous person, especially a famous and powerful family, if the mistress of the family is not good, the decline of the whole family will not be far away.

In order to control Duke Zhen, the first emperor married Concubine Wu's sister to Duke Zhen, and as a result, he gave birth to an idiot like Shizi.

But Duke Zhen himself married this...

Ha ha!

"Oh, girl, we are a small place, there is nothing good, I have neglected you."

"Brother, I'm tired of those bird's nest and shark's fins, and these dishes from my hometown are just right."

"Auntie, you are tired of eating it, but my niece has never tasted it. I wonder if my aunt might lend us some money. Look, my elder brother doesn't even have a decent dress."

Hearing the voice of the girl in the next box, Xie Jue lowered his eyes lightly, and let out a faint cold snort.

Maybe the people in the box over there didn't expect the girl to say that, so they fell silent.

After a while, the woman smiled embarrassingly and said: "Needless to say, Auntie, Auntie is preparing a meeting ceremony."

After a while, a young man made an unbelievable voice: "A hundred guan? Auntie, just a hundred guan?"

"Yeah, his aunt, you have too few greetings, don't you?"

"Auntie, I'm not going to hide it from you. Our family is in a bad situation. We don't even have the money to pay for the food in Dewang Building today. You spend tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands a year. Let's just let it go. It’s not too much to give us [-] to [-] guan, right?”

There was a soft knock at the door, Xie Jue raised his hand slightly, preventing the person who came in from speaking, and turned his head slightly, listening to the movement next to him with interest.

Mrs. Zhen Guogong's face was flushed, seeing her elder brother, sister-in-law and nephew and niece all looked angry, and her heart was full of anger and shame.

Full of desire to take out the money and slap the faces of these four people directly.

But she can't.

Ever since the people around her were replaced by Zhao Hao, Duke Zhen also took back her right to be a housekeeper, so she didn't have much money.

When he arrived at the border town, Lord Zhen Guo also told the servants in the mansion to take care of him when he went out to inspect, and did not give her any money.

Tang Xiang encouraged her to run away from home on the condition that she could not be found out.

Therefore, she used the excuse to go out to the street, and then watched the maids and guards get into the mule cart prepared by Tang Xiang without paying attention.

In this case, it is impossible for her to bring out many jewelry!

Of course, she never thought of bringing jewelry out to exchange money. What she thought in her heart was that Duke Zhen and Zhao Hao would be able to find her immediately in two days, and then apologize to her bitterly and welcome her back. government.

But who knew, the mule cart was traveling on a mountain road.

Not to mention the hard work involved, neither Duke Zhen nor Zhao Hao was seen.

If Tang Xiang hadn't said to ask the accompanying manager to deliver the letter in advance, then Zhen Guogong and Zhao Hao would definitely know where she was.

She wanted to turn around and stop coming to Jinzhou!
Now, apart from the jewelry she brought when she went out and the mink fur coat she was wearing (the clothes inside were replaced by Tang Xiang), she has nothing of value.

The meeting gift of two hundred guan is the last money on her body!

This water fragrance is [-] to [-] per mouth...

Where did she go to find the money?

"Uncle, Uncle, Madam." Tang Xiang wiped her lips with a handkerchief, and said softly: "You guys also know the identity of our wife. When you are away from home, how can the headed wife get the money by herself? Wait When our son arrives, you guys will tell him about the hard work, and I think he will make arrangements in the future."

She has been by Tong Guan's side for so many years, and she has never seen anyone, but this is really the first time she has such a face.

As soon as Tang Xiang said, Mrs. Zhen Guogong also came back to her senses, looked at Shui Xiang with disdain, and said: "My niece can't do this, this is in the capital, you can't get married."

Shui Xiang laughed lightly, as if she didn't hear Mrs. Zhen Guo's words, she just said to Tang Xiang indifferently: "Why is my cousin also coming?"

This person was sitting in a mule cart, and after taking off the outer fur coat, the inner clothes were no better than what she was wearing, and the two white guanzi that were used as a meeting ceremony were still taken out from the chest.

It's impossible to let her not think too much.

However, whether this aunt is a serious wife or a concubine, no one in Jinzhou City can know, but no one dares to pretend to be Zhao Hao, the son of Duke Zhenguo.

Not far ahead is Wucheng.

General Wen in Wucheng is not a vegetarian.

If someone dared to pretend to be Zhao Hao, they would be killed immediately.

Tang Xiang smiled slightly and said: "Of course he will come, the son is pure filial piety, and he originally wanted to come with his wife, but I think my uncle and wife also know that now the son has important responsibilities, there are soldiers outside who are watching, and there are people inside." Bad guys want to spoil the matter of the son, so of course you have to be careful in doing this, if the wife is not concerned about the old mother who has not seen her for many years, she must come back to visit relatives, the son would not want the wife to come back."

"Yes." When Tang Xiang mentioned it, Mrs. Zhen Guogong's wife finally remembered, and said, "Where are your parents?"

When she married to the capital, she was made things difficult by Concubine Wu in every possible way. Not to mention going home, even sending letters home was stopped by Duke Zhen (for fear that she would be caught by Concubine Wu if she said something wrong in the letter). In addition, after going to the border town, she also lost her desire to contact her natal family. After a long time, sometimes she couldn't remember that she still had her natal family.

Thinking about it now, she didn't receive the news of her parents' death, why didn't she see her today?
Uncle Shui's face changed slightly, and his lips muttered a few times.

"Grandfather and grandmother are getting old, and their legs and feet are inconvenient. It's cold today, so I didn't disturb the two of them. Now, they are all waiting at home." Madame said.

Zhao Hao is coming...

It's better to please her first.

Xie Jue heard the harmony in the box over there again, and after a while, the girl with a particularly soft voice suggested going back to see the old lady, and the group of people got up again.

He waved his hand and asked the person to sit down.

The visitor waited for the sound of the box next to him to disappear, and after it was completely quiet, he said in a low voice: "Madam Zhen Guo came here alone, with only an aunt, a maid, and a driver. The driver should not be from the Duke of Zhen's mansion, and the aunt, according to Zhao Jia, met the aunt when he accompanied the girl to Wazi, and the aunt was with Tong Guan at that time."

Xie Jue frowned unconsciously: "Is that so?"

Zhao Jia was one of his capable bodyguards under Tang Bing's command. He was best at remembering people. Whenever he saw someone, he could recognize them even from their backs.

In other words, this aunt is from Tongguan!
This is Jinzhou, and more than 200 miles away is the territory of the Rong people!
As far as he could see, many of the shops on the street in front of Dewang Building were run by Rong people!

"Keep an eye on them, don't let that idiot fall into the hands of the Rong people, and tell General Wen about it." Xie Jue tapped his finger on the table, and a cold expression flashed across his face: "When necessary, shoot and kill!"
