Chapter 731: Retiring to old age (first update)

No matter how long the day and distance were calculated, the lady felt that she was pressed for time and was very nervous, but she also wanted to go and see it.

She held the letter and complained to the three unmarried ladies, "You seventh sister, you **** girl, why are you in such a hurry to get married? The letter doesn't say that she did anything extraordinary to cause trouble and got pregnant."

Miss 456 was sweating in her heart, thinking that her mother would say this arrogantly in front of the three homeless girls. Of course, she is not to blame. Now the aunts are all in Jiangzhou, and her father Also, she had no one to talk to except the three of them.

The fourth young lady said: "Isn't it possible? Although the seventh sister is unconventional, Mr. Zhou must be a well-behaved person, right?"

The eldest lady snorted, "No matter how well-behaved a person is, if he has been with your seventh sister for a long time, he will be abducted by her."

She will never forget that when the young master of the Zhou family arrived in Jiangning County, he was abducted by that bad girl Su Rong and taken to the third floor. At that time, she was almost mad at her. Now even if someone's life was taken before the wedding and it was placed on her, she wouldn't find it strange.

The fourth lady was speechless.

The Fifth Miss whispered: "The Seventh Sister is indeed unreliable."

Miss Sixth agreed, "Yes."

"Hey, I'll write a letter first and ask her what's going on? Then get ready! If my prediction is true, according to the way the Duke's wife loves her son, how can she not get married when her youngest son gets married? Are you going to Nanchu to watch the ceremony? Even if she doesn't go, the Duke's Mansion will send someone there, and it's impossible to leave the Zhou family alone." As the eldest lady spoke, she got up to write a letter.

The three ladies looked at each other, discussed quietly for a few words, and then went aside. The three of them joined together and wrote a letter. Anyway, they knew that if one person wrote too many letters, Seventh Sister would only glance at them twice. Maybe she would find it annoying to read too many letters, so just one letter would be enough for them all.

The lady wrote quickly without any need to think about it, and directly asked Su Rong if she was pregnant? Got killed? Are you so anxious to get married? She also said that she was extremely pressed for time here. She had already married three of her sisters and now there were still three left. She had to hurry up and get married in June. She had been planning the wedding for more than half a year, and she was so tired that she couldn't stop. Rest? She has to take a break before going to watch the ceremony, right? She had to go anyway, not to mention staying for a year and a half, three to five years, and after she gave birth to a child, she could come back again.

At this moment, she forgot that her son had not yet married a wife, and he didn’t even have a daughter-in-law.

In her family, daughters are more valuable than sons.

She scribbled a lot of question marks until she had finished writing everything she wanted to say, then she stopped writing with nothing to say and closed the thick envelope.

The fourth lady looked at the thick envelope and reminded the eldest lady, "Mom, the eldest brother hasn't discussed the marriage yet!"

The eldest lady paused for a moment, and then quickly said, "He is not in a hurry himself. Why should I be in a hurry? A man who is eighty-year-old will marry an eighteenth-year-old, and a woman who is eighty-year-old can only marry an eighty-year-old woman. He has the ability to find one by himself." , if you don’t have the ability, just wait until I come back from Nanchu to look for him.”

Miss Fourth: “…”

For a long time, she had suspected that the seventh sister and her eldest brother had made the wrong mistake. The seventh sister was her mother's biological daughter, right?

After sending the letter, the eldest lady thought for a while and wrote a letter to Su Xingze, asking him if he would go to Northern Hebei after the war. Or go back to Beijing to report on your work. When his sisters leave the house, he doesn't give them to any of them, which is not very cool. I wonder if I can ask His Highness the Crown Prince. If Xiao Qi's wedding is really half a year away, she will leave in June. By then, he doesn't know if he can spare time and go to Nanchu to watch the ceremony.

She guessed that his son must also want to watch Xiao Qi's wedding. After all, since he was a child, he would not even miss his seventh sister's birthday.

Her letter to Su Xingze was as simple as finishing what she wanted to say and not mentioning anything else. Then, I thought about it again and wrote a letter to Su Xu. This letter was even simpler, saying that she must go to Nanchu no matter what, but if it couldn't be done, ask her to send two aunts to come to the capital to take charge. When the daughter gets married, there will be no one in the capital even to go back to her parents’ home.

Su Rong knew that Su Xingze was at the front line, so his separate letter to Su Xingze was naturally sent to the front line. After the peace talks, the prince was preparing to return to Beijing, and was arranging for Su Xingze, Xie Lin and others to stay in the army and wait for post-war matters to be dealt with.

Su Xingze received Su Rong's letter at this time. After reading the letter, he rubbed his brows helplessly, thinking that the wedding was so urgent, could he go to the ceremony? This letter seemed to be just a casual question to him, with no intention of letting him attend the ceremony, but he really wanted to go.

He thought that his mother would definitely go. Qimei's letter was also mainly about asking her mother, knowing that he and his father might not be able to leave.

Prince Yan Huisheng and the old Duke Hu also received the letter. After reading it, the old Duke cursed, "What are you so anxious about, you brat?"

Like the eldest princess, the old protector is more keen on state affairs. The first thing that comes to his mind is that there is such a rush for a big wedding, how can he be busy? Nan Chuzhi might have been so busy that he fell on his back, half a year would be enough, right?

He took the letter, pondered it, and went to find the prince.

Yan Huisheng was also reading the letter when he saw the old protector coming with the letter. He immediately smiled and said, "Has the old protector also received Zhou Gu's letter?"

The old Protector nodded, his beard curling up, "I said we will get married in half a year."

"They were a little anxious. They probably felt that they were stable after the war and wanted to get married quickly." Yan Huisheng could understand Zhou Gu. He chased to Nanchu and fought side by side with Su Rong. After narrowly escaping death, he didn't just want to be anxious. Do you want a status?

The old Lord Protector said: "Hey, Your Highness, the battle is over, and it's time for the old minister to retire. The troops and horses in charge of the Lord Protector's Mansion will be handed over to the three brothers Zhou and Wei. Old minister, I want to take a rest..."

Yan Huisheng sat up straight and said, "What does the old Duke mean by this, do you also want to go to Nanchu to attend the ceremony?"

The old protector of the country immediately said: "I want to retire."

Yan Huisheng stared at him and asked, "Aren't you going to watch the ceremony?"

"After getting old, let's take a rest first. It's not impossible to walk around." The old Protector of the Kingdom went to Nanchu when he was young. Fast forward a few decades. From now on, his little grandson will live in Nanchu for the rest of his life. It is estimated that he will be buried in the imperial mausoleum of the Southern Chu royal family. Can't he take a look at his old bones while he can still move?

Yan Huihui was silent, "Old Duke, I think you can still serve the imperial court for ten years."

The old Duke thanked you but was not sensitive, "Your Highness, I would like to ask you, how did you fight in this battle?"

“Good.” There is nothing to say except good.

"That's it, I don't want rewards, I will sue my old age." The old protector began to complain, "I have devoted my whole life to the country of Daliang. Your Highness, the Crown Prince, you have to be unkind, veteran. I am getting older. From the twelfth lunar month of last year to the beginning of this year, I almost risked my life. You care about the people of the world, can't you show sympathy to me? I don't ask for anything else. My grandchildren have grown up and can take charge of their own affairs. , It’s time for me, the old minister, to take off his heavy burden, right?”

Yan Huihui retorted silently, and after a while he said: "Old Duke, now is the time for the court to employ people. Even if you want to retire, you have to wait for a year and a half."

"Don't wait. I promised your great-aunt more than ten years ago that when the court is stable and you grow up and can stand up, I will take her out of the capital for a walk." Lao Hu said. The Duke played the emotional card, "Prince, you must not be ungrateful."

Yan Huisheng was frozen. Good guy, in order to retire, I even said the words "ungrateful" to him, what else could he say?

Can he say that he also wants to go? But that's impossible, he can only be his prince. (End of chapter)
