"Mom, unless I have to, I don't want to go to the Ning family to beg the old lady of the Ning family!" He Lian'er pondered for a moment, frowned and whispered.
"Why? Xiao An is not at home, your father is in jail, and the shop is closed. The only big shot our mother and I can ask for right now is the old lady of the Ning family, isn't it?"
" I heard that the old lady of the Ning family recently My health is not good, and there are many doctors at home every day. Thanks to Master Ning’s two sisters, I often come to take care of her. How can I bother her with these things at this time? "
"Besides, the other party is the county guard? Relatives of the Ning family, even if Mrs. Ning helps us, it will only consume the favor of my sister Qing'er and the others, so I don't want to go to the Ning family!"
"You stupid girl with a solid eye, when will you do it? Are you still worried about that? We don't want a shop, but your father is still in prison!" Mother He burst into tears and scolded He Lian'er: "If the Luo family and Lao Yang's family are close to each other, it's just a matter of sending a message. This is not the case. A hundred miles away!”
"Your father is in prison. The county guard's wife is the daughter of the Hu family. The Hu family said hello. I wonder how they are tormenting your father in prison now!"
"Your father's body is so good." How can my bones bear such abuse?"
He's mother was so distraught that she cried and scolded her. Could it be that He Lian'er felt better?
She gritted her teeth and stood up: "I'll go to the Hu's house. I promise to give away the cedar tree in exchange for my father coming back!"
Mother He was stunned and thought for a moment. I could only nod my head with tears in my eyes.
"That's all. Although this tree is good, people are valuable. I will accompany you to the Hu's house! Call two more people together!"
If Lian'er goes to the Hu's house alone, Mother He was worried.
Not only did she insist on accompanying He Lian'er, she also encouraged the two male servants at home.
"Mom, the three of us can go, you have to stay at home and take care of the cows!"
"But, I don't trust you..."
"Mom, it's okay. The Hu family's idea was for the cedar tree in our courtyard, not mine. Besides, I have a husband, and my husband eats royal meals at the Ministry of War. The Hu family doesn't dare to go too far!"
He's mother had no choice but to follow He Lian'er's arrangements.
He's mother sent He Lian'er to the gate of the courtyard and warned her, "Lian'er, if we are a lowly child, the Hu family will still make things harder for us. You must not compromise, otherwise we will Come back, wait until Xiaoan gets home, then we can think of something else, you are a woman's house , don’t let others take advantage of you..."
He Lian'er nodded: "Don't worry, mother, I have a sense of proportion..."
"Mother-in-law, Lian'er, you know this We’re arriving now, so why don’t we meet you at the door?”
Xiao An's familiar voice suddenly came from behind.
The mother and daughter of the He family turned around and saw Xiao An galloping towards them on a horse in the night at the street corner.
"Brother Xiao An!"
He Lian'er couldn't bear it any longer. She put the lantern into the hands of the servant next to her, turned around and ran towards Xiao An, with a cry in her voice. .
Xiao An got off his horse and hugged He Lian'er.
A few days ago, he got the news on the spur of the moment that he was going to escort his brother to Changhuaizhou, so he didn't have time to tell his family about it. He only sent a soldier to his home to deliver a message, saying that it would take a few days before he could come back after going out for business. .
Why is it that Lianer misses me so much after I have only been out for a few days?
No, Lian'er is crying!
"Lian'er, what's wrong with you? Why are you still crying? Silly girl, I'm just going out for a few days to do errands. It's not like I won't come back!" Xiao An gently stroked He Lian'er's back. , repeatedly comforting her, but her mouth always grinned to the side with uncontrollable joy.
At this time, Mother He and the others also came over.
Seeing Xiao An, everyone felt like they were seeing the backbone of the family. Mother He wiped away her tears and said, "An'er, you came back just in time. Something happened at home..."
Before the word "accident" could be uttered, the sound of horse hooves and carriage wheels could be heard again at the street intersection behind Xiao An.
Then, I saw two tall horses pulling a carriage out of the night. A windproof lantern was hung on the front of the carriage, with the word "LUO" written on the lantern.
Behind the carriage, there were two carriages, also in the same attire.
A man riding a tall black horse with a sword at his waist was walking on the side of the carriage.
"Brother-in-law?" He Lian'er recognized at a glance that the man on the horse with a stern look and an intimidating look was Luo Fengtang.
Mother He had met Luo Fengtang before, but only once. Luo Fengtang's face had long been blurry to her, but the aura that Luo Fengtang left to her was always deeply remembered by her.
Although the official has a kind of official power, which makes the common people kneel down in fear when they see it, but that kind of official power only makes people have no choice but to surrender, but psychologically they are very disgusted and hateful. I feel like they are worms riding on the necks of the common people, but they are just lucky enough to be reincarnated!
But Luo Fengtang, a general who fought in the north and south, gave the common people a different feeling than the officials.
They are tall, powerful, and powerful.
They came out of the mountain of corpses and sea of blood, killed countless enemies, and were obviously filled with evil spirits. However, in the eyes and hearts of the people, they were the embodiment of awe-inspiring righteousness, especially those who protect the country like Luo Fengtang. The existence of the general is like a god. Wherever he is, people's hearts will be much more peaceful, and evil spirits and heretics will not dare to approach.
"It's really General Luo! Now it's better, your father is saved!" He's mother was surprised and happy, and she cried tremblingly.
"Mother-in-law, what's wrong? Why are you all crying? What happened at home?" Xiao An also realized that something was really wrong at this time and asked quickly.
He's mother was about to say something, but He Lian'er stopped her, "Mom, don't rush for this moment."
"Brother An, who is in the carriage?"
"My parents, my sister, my sister-in-law, and the children are all here!"
"Come to our house as guests!"< br>
"Ah? My parents and sister are here? Okay, okay..."
He Lian'er wiped the tears on her face and hurried to the carriage to meet her.
He's mother also smiled and said, "The general and the others are here, the father-in-law and mother-in-law are here, Lian'er's father is saved, he is saved!"
The servants of the He family looked at each other in confusion as they watched the He family's mother and daughter go to the carriage to greet the guests.
From what the old lady and madam say, are our uncle’s relatives coming to visit?
Didn’t I say before that my uncle came from a village a hundred miles away? Are you from a wealthy family? The pomp and circumstance of this trip is not like that of a villager!
Although there are no extravagant details, this car, this horse, each large carriage is pulled by two horses. Even the wealthy people on this street would not dare to travel. This way, a horse can pull a cart to its death.
What are the origins of my uncle’s relatives? (End of this chapter)
