Chapter 1594 General Tiger Girl 78


Chapter 1594: Tiger Girl 78

The imperial edict is that the Zhou County magistrate will govern the county and suppress bandits, and he will be promoted to the magistrate of the state.

This time, he jumped from the ninth level to the fifth level. He probably couldn't jump as high or as fast as any firecracker.

Mr. Zhou received the imperial edict and stood up, still confused. Now you become the magistrate? I originally thought that with at most one transfer order, going to a larger county to become a seventh-grade county magistrate would be a blessing from heaven. How did he become the governor all of a sudden?

The old man in the palace had a smile on his face: "There have been many happy events in the Zhou family recently. Congratulations to Mr. Zhou."

Mrs. Zhou immediately hinted to the people around her to hand over some silver: "Thank you for your hard work, Weng Weng. It's just a small thing to buy some tea."

"Then why are you embarrassed..." After all, he still kept the money in his sleeves. Then he said with a smile: "There is another way of saying it is the official decree!"

So everyone in the Zhou family was about to kneel down again. Weng Weng quickly supported Mr. Zhou: "This can only be said to Mr. Zhou. Originally, I wanted to say it to the eldest son Zhou, but it is not convenient for the eldest son to get out of bed now. Just tell Mr. Zhou.”

After Master Zhou heard this, he became even more confused.

When the people around him walked away, Weng Weng straightened his face and straightened his back. He began to spread the message: "I learned that the legitimate daughter of the Zhenguo General's Mansion married on my sister's behalf. I originally wanted to issue a decree for a marriage, but General Zhao is a low-key man, so the marriage was omitted. The Zhou Mansion cannot neglect Zhao Yinghong, otherwise I will not be able to do so. Spare you!”

It was like a thunderclap, making Mr. Zhou's ears buzz and his eyes wide open. What, what, what, did the officials make a mistake? They married a concubine, not a legitimate daughter!

Weng Weng thought Zhou Jiale was crazy. After all, most petty officials would only climb from county magistrate to county magistrate in their lifetime, and then retire and return to their hometowns when they reach old age. Naturally, he couldn't recover from the overwhelming Tian En that was thrown at him like this, so he returned to the palace to resume his life.

Mr. Zhou stood there, blowing the gradually warming spring breeze, and after a long time, he finally woke up.

The first thing was to run to the Zhenguo General's Mansion. He didn't even have time to get into the car.

Although the Zhenguo General's Mansion is not far from the Zhou Mansion, Mr. Zhou is a civil servant who has never practiced martial arts, and he was extremely tired from running all the way there.

The guard at the door stared blankly at Mr. Zhou holding on to the pillar at the door. He was panting so hard that he almost lost his breath, but he was still trying to speak: "Xia, Xiaguan... huh huh huh... Zhou, Zhou..."
< br>

It took him a long time to explain clearly who he wanted to meet.

The guard was also a smart man and asked someone to go in and tell General Zhao that Master Zhou was here.

Mr. Zhou was invited in and sat in the hall to see General Zhao. At this time, it doesn’t matter whether it’s about face or not. From now on, it’s your own family, so you need to speak out and figure things out as soon as possible. Pour out all the matters that you just received from the imperial edict and oral instructions like beans.

Marrying the legitimate daughter to a minor official really made the officials happy, and instantly made the Zhou family jump several levels.

However, even if it becomes a fifth-grade magistrate, it is still far from the Zhenguo General's Mansion, but at least it looks a little better.

He originally planned to discuss it, but at this moment, General Zhao shamelessly found a suitable way to say it: "I am ashamed to say that the second daughter Yingxue refused to marry Mr. Ling and kept making trouble. She also said that if Mr. Ling really If you are so good, why don’t you let Yinghong marry? In order to persuade the concubine, I said that the general and his wife would definitely choose her, so she can marry her.”

Glancing at Mr. Zhou, his eyes were shining from the moment he entered the door. He sighed secretly and continued: "I originally wanted to discuss it with Mr. Zhou's family, but for some reason, the news reached the official family first. Seeing that the official family was happy, the general also You can't refute the official's face. It's a mistake to simply make a mistake. No matter what, I haven't discussed this matter with Zhou's family first. I hope they can understand it. "It's true, it's true!" Mr. Zhou was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth: "No, no, I have wronged your wife in this way."

His eldest son married the legitimate daughter of the Zhenguo General's Mansion. Moreover, he had just met the girl. She was so beautiful and beautiful as a fairy when she was sitting in the car. He was also courteous and courteous when he spoke and responded, and his whole body exuded incomparable nobility.

The reason why he was promoted so quickly was not because the eldest son was marrying his legitimate daughter. Although General Zhao didn't want to ask for anything for his son-in-law, the officials didn't want the Zhenguo General's Palace to be looked down upon. Married into a petty official's family. So I tried my best to give him a position that would not be impeached by the officials.

General Zhao rolled his eyes when he saw Mr. Zhou's happy brows and lack of restraint at all. This cabbage, which was raised with great difficulty, was not taken over by a pig, but was married off by someone else, which made her feel uncomfortable. But compared to marrying the Duke of Rongguo, who has ulterior motives, at least the younger daughter can live a much more comfortable life.

Master Zhou suddenly thought of something and stood up suddenly: "No, how can those betrothal gifts be enough? I will take my leave now and will come back soon!" Before General Zhao could react, he bowed and walked out happily.

General Zhao looked at Mr. Zhou's back and felt even more uncomfortable. His precious daughter was going to marry into such a low-level family. He was almost going crazy with joy. Thinking about it, his eyes were hot and his nose was a little sore.

After Zhao Chengzong learned the news, he was so angry that he almost vomited blood. If anything goes unsatisfactory, the servants and maids will be punished. Everyone in his courtyard is frightened and cautious, fearing that the punishment will fall on them next time.

The third prince went over to visit, but for a moment he didn't recognize that this guy with a bruised nose and swollen face was Zhao Chengzong.

The news spread out, passed around, and had several versions. The most convincing thing is that the second lady of Zhenguo General Mansion was not satisfied with the marriage arranged by her aunt, so her aunt was so angry that she asked her own daughter to marry her instead. The final result of all versions is that Zhao Yinghong is going to marry Zhou Zexian!

The Zhou family felt that they could not treat Zhao Yinghong badly, so they actually sent people to their hometown to sell the land and even the ancestral home to collect the bride price.

This is really sincerity to the extreme, but after all, the distance is too big. In order to strive to meet the standards of marrying a noble daughter, he actually wants to sell his ancestral home. After thinking about it, the officials decided to be a good man and stick to the end. Master Zhou was rewarded with five thousand taels of silver for his success in suppressing the bandits.

Now there was no need to sell the ancestral home. After Lord Zhou burst into tears of gratitude, he asked someone to hang up the red silk cloth and follow him to the Zhenguo General's Mansion before he had warmed up the silver reward he had just received.

A group of people carried boxes of silver to the Zhenguo General's Mansion. They were watched along the way, and many people couldn't help but laugh. A noble girl is really not something ordinary people can marry. The Zhou family is still an official, so in order to marry Miss Zhao, they have to sell their ancestral home. If it weren't for the official reward, I would really have sold my ancestral home.

Mr. Zhou, however, was full of embarrassment and blushed: "This point has really wronged Miss Zhao, but I really tried my best."

Silver ingots stamped with the treasury's steel seal are neatly placed in boxes.

In the other box, there are two land deeds, two house deeds, and a shop in the county town. Of course, Mr. Zhou's ancestral home is not in it. Outsiders cannot say that he gave away his ancestral home in order to find a wife. About half of these five land and house deeds were Mrs. Zhou's dowry.

In addition to these, there are also three sets of headscarves. One look at the patterns and you can tell that they should be worn by Mrs. Zhou, so I brought them all.
