Chapter 36 Of course, you need to prepare more gifts
In the future, when a wife who has not returned for a year returns to her parents' home, she must do her best to prepare gifts, or exceed her own abilities, and also plays a fat man with a face for the sake of her face. Of course, Zheng Zhi also prepared gifts according to this idea.
The Xu family is more than 100 miles east of Weizhou City, and further east is Panyuan City in Weizhou. The Xu family's hometown is the middle area between Weizhou City and Panyuan City, in Xujia Town on the edge of Jingshui.
Xujia Town is not a small place. Most of the families with hundreds of families are surnamed Xu. The Xu family is not a small family. It is also a good family in Xujia Town. There is also an eldest son and a younger brother under Xu family.
Zheng Zhi also knew the situation, but he didn't have a deep impression of Xu's family. He had only seen him twice, once when he was married, and once when he was married. A year later, his appearance was a bit blurry.
Zheng Zhi married a jade girl from a small family like Xu, which also entrusted the good talk of his relatives from afar. Many ancient people did this. Whether the marriage was successful depends on the eloquence of the matchmaker. Although Xujia Town has a large population, it is obvious that intermarriage among the same tribes is not allowed, and this daughter still wants to marry another place.
Zheng Zhi is from Weizhou City. In modern times, he is from the provincial capital, while Xu is from the countryside. This countryman is a countryman who married into the provincial capital, but he is a high-ranking person. However, when it comes to Zheng Zhi's identity as a butcher, it is obvious that Zheng Zhi is not worthy of this little family. Fortunately, a matchmaker said that Zheng Zhi's family is extraordinary and has a lot of wealth in the city. Of course, Zheng Zhi is also quite generous in hiring. He just concealed the identity of the butcher.
Zheng Zhi married Xu back to Weizhou without hiding his identity as a butcher. Zheng Zhi was a rough man before, and he felt a little embarrassed when he concealed the identity of this butcher. So since he got married, Zheng Zhi handed over the work of slaughtering pigs to Niu Da. In this way, Zheng Zhi seemed to have improved the identity of the butcher a little, becoming a level behind the meat stall, and thought that he could also get back.
Fortunately, Xu didn't care about these things. Since he got married, he wanted to take care of his husband and children well. However, Zheng Zhi was not a good family before, and he would still reveal his true colors in a short time and cheated and robbed the troubled Jin Cuilian from Tokyo. These stories later came into being.
Zheng Zhi also knew these causes and consequences, so when preparing the gift, he not only brought precious gold and jade accessories to each of the Xu family, but also prepared many kinds of cloth, snacks, delicious tea and wine from the south, and even had three hundred taels of silver in small boxes.
It was a cart of things. Zheng Zhi just walked around his shopping mall. Li Er followed behind with a few servants, and moved them out as long as he liked them.
"Officials, I want to prepare so many things..." Li Ertouqian didn't say anything, and at this time he couldn't help it. He asked tentatively, but he was really confused.
"My wife wants to go back to visit her father-in-law and mother-in-law, of course she needs to prepare more gifts. If you have anything you find fun, she will recommend some." Zheng Zhi explained casually. Li Er has always been responsible for the operation of the mall. If there are any new products, Li Er is the first to know.
"The lady in front of her came to make several clothes and silk skirts, and the officials came to prepare so many things. The lady is really happy." Li Er was still a little surprised. There was no such gift for her father-in-law and mother-in-law. If she had been promoted to the daughter of a nobleman, it would be fine. At this time, with Zheng Zhi's tall image in Li Er's heart, Xu obviously had been promoted to Zheng Zhi.
"You guys are so sarcastic, your wife loves you, so you have to learn a little in the future." Zheng Zhi couldn't hear the smell in Li Er's tone, but he knew in his heart that Li Er was also considering himself. According to the normal people of this era, Li Er did nothing wrong, on the contrary, he was loyal.
Hearing a hint of impatientness in Zheng Zhi's tone, Li Er certainly did not dare to say anything, and indignantly told the servants to be careful to play with these precious gifts.
It was already afternoon when Zheng Zhi told him about going to Xujia Town. Shi Jin had to follow his brother wherever he went. Unexpectedly, Wang Jin was also interested. Although his health had just recovered, he didn't want to stay in this yard every day and go out for a walk.
Jin Cuilian didn't dare to express her opinions. It was not until Xu spoke that she nodded with a smile. This time she went all the way to her parents' home, she obviously felt like she was traveling.
However, Old Man Jin refused to go with him and insisted on guarding the house at home. He always felt that everyone had left and the family was easily missed. Thinking of the two boxes of silver at home, he was reluctant to go out together. Zheng Zhi followed his thoughts.
"Brother, do you want to tell Brother Tixia?" After discussion, Shi Jin remembered Luda.
"Lu Da, he wants to travel with him, but I'm afraid there is some inconvenience. The matter of the colonel is at a critical moment, but it's okay to ask." Zheng Zhi replied, saying that Lu Da is inconvenience, but Zheng Zhi is not inconvenience here. As the chief of the training department in the later army, Lu Da specializes in managing training matters. At this time, it is a busy node of official business. If you have to go out for a few days, Xiao Zhong's husband may not agree.
"Then I'll go find Brother Tixia to ask." Shi Jin still wanted the three of them to go out together. The young man always said that. When he went out to play, his friends always had to call him.
"Well, you go and ask, so as not to let Lu Da down." Obviously, Zheng Zhi still remembered in his heart that Lu Da was angry that the last time they went to fight with Lu Qian and did not inform him, so he thought that even if he could not walk with him, he would ask, so as not to turn around and come to him angrily.
After saying that, Shi Jin went out to find Lu Da.
Sure enough, Lu Da really couldn't go there. Xiao Zhongxiang's task was to let Lu Da inspect the training situation of each department every day. When he came back, he had to report to Xiao Zhongxiang's husband. This trip was a hundred miles away, and he had to stay for one or two days in the middle, which would take four or five days, so where could Lu Da leave?
However, Xiaozhong's husband was quite relieved of Zheng Zhi. Lu Da had visited Zheng Zhi before and had trained with his troops. When he came back to report Xiaozhong's husband, he even boasted, which made Xiaozhong's husband's control over Zheng Zhi more relaxed.
Lu Da couldn't go, and he felt very regretful and felt a little sad. He insisted on hosting this Pan family restaurant tonight, saying that he was seeing Zheng Zhi off.
