Chapter 962: Honor in Troubled Times 30
In the evening, An Ning sent the children to bed. She loosened her hair, changed into her pajamas and lay on the bed.
Xiao Yuan also lay down in pajamas of the same color as An Ning.
An Ning asked Xiao Yuan: "What are you doing with Yin'er today?"
Xiao Yuan followed An Ning's long hair and said, "Boss is afraid that the old couple will come to our place, so I will set them up in advance."
An Ning frowned.
She didn't want the old man and the old lady to come and live there.
If the old man and the old lady were okay with their family, An Ning would not be unfilial to the two elders.
But those two people were really not very good at the Third Room, and they had a lot of things to do.
The old lady is in a big house, and the old man is in a second house. If these two live here, it will cause a lot of trouble. They must have thought about how to use the third house to subsidize the second house.
An Ning didn't care about anything. What he cared about was that the old lady and the old man would become the eyes and ears of the big and second bedrooms, and stared at the every move of the third bedroom.
She and Xiao Yuan have to do a lot of things. If they are really targeted by those two people, it will be a lot of inconvenience.
Xiao Yuan and An Ning thought about it almost the same.
He patted An Ning's back: "Don't worry, if I have me, I won't ask them to come."
After talking about the old man, Xiao Yuan talked about another thing.
"You go and tell the old family tomorrow, let them stay at home honestly these days and restrain the children."
"Okay." An Ning agreed with a smile.
Xiao Yuan sighed: "I'm afraid this winter will be uneasy."
An Ning pointed to the place further south: "Is there a bandit?"
Xiao Yuan nodded: "Well, I guess the pirates are going to go ashore."
The Nanyi side is quite close to the beach, and pirates often go ashore to burn, kill and loot. Jingtian Village is better, after all, it is not on the beach, but several villages and towns not far from here often suffer.
"There are still too few people."
Xiao Yuan sighed again. He wanted to take this opportunity to stand up and get the qualification to lead the army, but he was alone and it was difficult for him to do this.
An Ning thought for a while: "Or what if we accept a few adopted sons and daughters."
An Ning and Xiao Yuan have been doing this many times when they accept their godson and do their girls. They also recruit disciples. Anyway, they are all skilled workers.
Xiao Yuan thought for a while: "That's all I can do."
Xiao Yuan went out the next morning, and An Ning knew that he was looking for a way to the county town.
An Ning went to the fourth room and told Wyeth that she would restrain the children in the past few days and not let them go out to play wildly. She also held her five children at home and refused to go out.
Wyeth is now very listening to An Ning's words. An Ning said that she would definitely be detained if she asked her to detain the children.
Xiao Yuan went out for a day and came back when it was dark. He told An Ning something: "Magistrate Yu was about to recruit soldiers. I thought that he knew that the pirates were going to ashore. You can get some money first and I will send it to the county government tomorrow."
An Ning nodded, turned around and prepared three hundred taels of silver for Xiao Yuan.
Xiao Yuan went to the county government the next day and when he came back, he had to get a document, which allowed him to recruit the township heroes.
Nanyi is a place where all ethnic groups live in a mixed place. Because there are more people from all ethnic groups and many things, there are naturally many disputes. Many wealthy families will raise many family members and villages, etc., in order to protect their own safety.
Xiao Yuan received three hundred taels of silver for an open and upright identity.
He took the document and went to Li Zheng, and told Li Zheng that his family had a small population and wanted to raise some adopted sons and daughters, so that Li Zheng would help find some children who could not live without a father or mother.
Xiao Yuan and Li Zheng talked about this matter, and turned around and called Xiao Ling to tell the matter.
Xiao Ling is seventeen years old this year and is not young anymore. He should have talked about his wife's age, but something happened at home, so he delayed it. Now that he has arrived in Nanyi, he doesn't know when he will be able to return to Beijing, so he has to find a wife for him from Nanyi.
Xiao Yuan asked Xiao Ling to come to discuss this matter with him.
When Xiao Ling came over, he thought something was wrong, and he was so anxious that he was sweating profusely: "Third Brother, what happened?"
Xiao Yuan pointed to the chair beside him: "Sit."
After Xiao Ling sat down, he looked at Xiao Yuan: "Third Brother, what happened?"
Xiao Yuan laughed: "Nothing happened, I just want to ask what kind of wife you want to marry, so that your third and fourth sister-in-law can help you find it."
Xiao Ling's face suddenly turned red: "I... I have no idea, it's just... the third brother and the third sister-in-law are here to do it. You must be wrong if you think it's right."
Xiao Ling is treating Xiao Yuan as his parent.
Yes, his aunt died long ago and his own father could not count on him, so he could only rely on Xiao Yuan and An Ning.
An Ning just came over with tea and snacks. After hearing this, she smiled: "Then you have to give us a goal, whether to be good, gentle, lively, and capable..."
Xiao Ling's family knew his family's affairs and they were already common people, so naturally they didn't have the chance to find a lady from the official family and said, "Just just have the girls in the village. As long as they are virtuous and capable, they can support their doors with me."
This is easy to deal with.
Xiao Ling grew up well and also had a large blue brick house. When he moved to his new home, Xiao Yuan gave him some money. He also had land. As long as he farmed well, he would not lack food and drink. If he married a girl from the village, he would definitely find a good one.
Xiao Yuan looked at An Ning and An Ning nodded.
Xiao Yuan and Xiao Ling talked for a while, and Xiao Jin also came over.
Xiao Yuan said to Xiao Jin: "You go get some copper coins and let's go to the boss's place."
Xiao Jin was stunned for a moment: "What are you doing when you go to the big room?"
Xiao Yuanyi smiled: "Send pension money to your parents."
Xiao Jin understood immediately.
He took a string of copper coins when he got home, and Xiao Yuan also carried a string of copper coins. The two brothers took the money around half of the village to the big house while the sky was shining.
Of course I met someone on the way and someone asked them what they were doing.
Xiao Yuan said, "I wanted to pick my parents up to live in my place yesterday, but my parents were determined to live with my elder brother. I just wanted to give my parents some money to save them living with my elder brother. My elder brother disliked it for a long time."
Xiao Jin shook his head helplessly and sighed: "We have nothing to do. On the way we came earlier, my parents gave all the money to my elder brother. I don't care about the money. I just thought about taking my parents to my third brother and I to live there for a while and fulfilling my filial piety. But they don't want to, so we can't make the old man angry, right?"
The two brothers were walking while talking. When they arrived at the big house, many people knew that the old man would live with the big house for the rest of their lives and hoped that the big house would give him a living and see him off. Xiao Laosan and Xiao Laosi were afraid that his father would be wronged, so they went to give the boss money.
Xiao Jue had just discussed with the old man whether he would stay at the third and fourth brothers for a while. After all, there were several brothers, so he had to take turns to support the elderly. As a result, before he could say this, Xiao Yuan and Xiao Jin sent the money over.
When he went out to inquire, he found out that good guy, everyone in the village knew that Old Man Xiao and the old lady were only willing to live with the boss.
People in this village say it is right, after all, at this time, they usually have large houses to support their elderly care.
Xiao Jue's face turned dark.
How could he let the two elders move?
Could it be that he has to keep those two old ones?
Zhao was also quite angry.
Xiao Yuan and Xiao Jin went over and fell and beat him up. Anyway, they would not give them a good look.
Xiao Yuan and Xiao Jin didn't keep much, and left after giving away the money.
When we came out of the big room, someone asked on the way back. Xiao Yuan said, "Fortunately, we sent the money over. My sister-in-law was throwing her at home. If we were to send it two days later, my sister-in-law might have to be wronged."
After saying this, Zhao almost got angry when he heard it.
