Huo Ju was scratching his head beside him. After his sister had taken care of her eldest brother, it was now the second brother's turn, right?
Huo Ju was swaying back and forth, with the four big words "Come and ask me" written all over his handsome face.
Tangli pursed his lips and smiled.
"Second brother, why are you here?"
Ah, my sister cares about him!
Huo Ju raised his chin. If he had a tail, it would have stood up right now. "I ran away from marriage. My mother arranged a marriage for me without my knowledge! The girl went missing before, and the matter was never mentioned. Now that the girl is back, my parents want me to marry her!"
"I don't like that girl, so I won't marry her! I won't let them control me!"
Just found it? That's not a coincidence, is it?
Tang Li's mind moved: "Who is the girl you are engaged to?"
"General Gu's daughter, General Gu and his wife really love her. They all say that girl is good, but I don't like her. She looks like she's pretending, so I don't bother to pay attention to her!"
General Gu’s daughter?
It’s really Gu Ying!
In the original novel, the general's daughter had a childhood engagement with the duke's son, a playboy who looked down on Gu Ying and wanted to cancel the engagement.
Gu Ying was proud and arrogant, and had originally looked down on the dude, but when he actually took the initiative to break off the engagement, she felt insulted and harbored a grudge. She arranged for the dude to be beaten to death by the Turks, his body to be devoured by wild dogs, and his entire family to be charged with treason and executed!
The unlucky guy who was killed by Gu Ying was actually Huo Ju?
So, Huo Ju is also one of the cannon fodder?
Could it be that the three of them are cannon fodder siblings?
When cannon fodder meets cannon fodder, Tangli feels closer to Huo Ju.
Tangli chatted with his two brothers for a while, and seeing that it was almost dark, he said goodbye and took the two children home.
As an older brother, Huo Ju naturally has to take good care of his younger sister.
"Sister, I'll take you back! Mu Yang, lend me the carriage!"
Huo Ju hurriedly drove the carriage and sent Tangli and the two babies back. It was Dabao's first time riding in a carriage, so he was very surprised.
"Mother, Dabao must study hard. When he passes the imperial examination and becomes the top scholar, I will buy you a carriage like this."
Dabao said in a baby voice. Although the words were childish, they were full of filial piety.
Tangli patted his little head and said, "Okay, mother will wait."
The carriage stopped outside the Wei family, but Huo Ju did not leave.
His sister actually lives in this adobe house, isn't it a bit shabby? When he returns to Beijing, he will find a way to steal money from home to buy his sister a large courtyard with three entrances and three exits!
Now, he wanted to see what kind of country boy could marry his sister?
He needs to consider whether this brother-in-law is qualified and worthy of his sister. If not, he will find a new one for his sister when he returns to Beijing!
In a short while, Huo Ju had screened all his friends.
Huo Ju looked outside the door for a while, and then a burly man came out.
The man had an extremely tall and strong figure. Even in such a cold day, he was only wearing a thin set of clothes and did not feel cold. His muscular body showed through his honey-colored skin.
His face was rough and hard, with a very manly look. Huo Ju immediately stood up straight. As the second brother-in-law, he represented his sister's family, so he couldn't lose in terms of momentum!
When the man saw Tangli, he grinned and said innocently, "Wife, you're back."
When he saw Huo Ju, he was a little surprised: "Wife, you picked up another baby? This baby is a little big, it's a bit difficult to raise it."
Huo Ju was so angry! He was only a head shorter! Being tall was such a big deal!
"What kid? I'm sixteen years old, I'm an adult!"
As he said that, he punched Wei Qing.
Wei Qing reached out, grabbed Huo Ju by the back of his collar, and lifted him up.
Huo Ju was also a martial artist, so he had no problem dealing with a few strong bandits. But now that he was picked up by this country man, he was completely stunned!
"Husband, please let go, he is my brother."
Wei Qing looked at Huo Ju doubtfully: "Brother?"
"Yes, brother, he is also your brother. You are disrespectful to your elders!" Huo Ju pointed at his nose.
Only then did Wei Qing let him go.
Huo Ju was furious. He had originally wanted to teach his brother-in-law a lesson and make him treat his sister well, but in front of his brother-in-law's strong body, he had no place to start. He could only drive the carriage back in disappointment.
As soon as Huo Ju left, Wei Qing hugged his young wife in his arms.
His leg was almost healed, and only a slight limp could be seen if one looked closely. He picked up his young wife and walked in.
Once Wei Qing holds his sweet and soft little wife in his arms, he can't bear to let go.
Pour tea and hold.
Wash your hands and hold.
Wipe the face and hug.
They are as clingy as conjoined twins.
Tangli was held in his arms and sat on his lap. He told him what happened today.
"Then let's go to town together to visit these two brothers some other day."
As Wei Qing spoke, he took out a bulging bag from his arms and stuffed it into Tang Li's hand.
"Wife, this is for you."
When Tang Li opened the bag, he found that it was full of silver, at least one hundred taels.
"You need money to open a medicine bag factory, and you also need to support two children. Take this! Don't worry about the money, I'll earn it!"
Tang Li was surprised: "How did you get so much money?"
"I found something to do." Wei Qing said.
"A few days ago, I went to town looking for work and happened to see a man fainted on the outskirts of town. I carried him to the clinic. I hadn't taken it seriously at first, but today, the man suddenly came to me and offered to pay me."
"A full one thousand taels! I didn't want it, so he bargained with me and said he would give me five hundred taels. Why is he so eager to give money? Then he asked me to work as a security guard for him. The salary would be one hundred taels a month! I can do ten of his work, so he won't lose anything!"
"That's good. Dabao and Xu Jue are in town and can take care of you." Tang Li said.
She was thinking about having a whole place to stay in town and a place to stay in town.
…
The next day.
Tang Li was concerned about Bai Muyang's health, so after talking to Doctor Su, he took Doctor Su to the town.
When the two arrived outside the Bai Mansion, they saw a young woman standing outside the door holding an exquisite food box.
The young woman was dressed brightly, with her hair tied up in a bun, and had a slim back.
It was Chen Xiaocui.
At this moment, Chen Xiaocui's face was full of smiles. She said to the doorman, "These are the pastries I made myself. They are all local specialties. I wanted to let Master Bai try them. Could you please be flexible and let me meet Master Bai?"
Chen Xiaocui married Mr. Bai San and became Mrs. Bai San. She wore silk and satin and had two maids. She had someone to serve her in everything she did and lived a very glorious life.
She was quite proud of herself at first, but as time went by, she became bored.
That old man Bai San had big yellow teeth, a bad odor, and loved to play tricks. He would beat her whenever he was unhappy.
Chen Xiaocui felt uncomfortable and depressed, and her mind became active.
Old man Bai San is not worthy of her. She is a beautiful flower and cannot spend her whole life stuck in cow dung.
She had to find someone worthy of her.
Just then, she saw Master Bai.
The head manager of the Bai family in Shangjing is as wealthy as a country. He is gentle and handsome, and Bai San has to bow and nod whenever he sees him.
Isn't it just right for her?
However, no matter what Chen Xiaocui said, the doorman remained indifferent.
"Our master is busy, please go back, young lady."
Chen Xiaocui was furious: "I am the Third Lady of Bai, after all, what's with your attitude, my servant?!"
The doorman also looked disdainful: "You are Mrs. Bai San, so go and act arrogantly in Bai San's residence. Our Bai residence is not a place for you to act wildly."
Chen Xiaocui was so angry that her face turned blue.
Damn servant! Watchdog! When she becomes Madam Bai, she will definitely teach this watchdog a lesson!
When Chen Xiaocui turned around, she saw a familiar person standing behind her. It was Tang Li.
She immediately put away her shame and anger, and acted like a master:
"It's Tangli, what are you doing here? Do you know where this is? This is the residence of our Bai family's head shopkeeper! You've been staying in the village for many years, so you haven't seen such a magnificent mansion, right? Then take a closer look."
"But don't stay at this gate for too long, or your earthy demeanor will pollute our Master Bai's eyes!"
