Chapter Twenty Five
The person to make amends has been decided, but the business that Mrs. Cheng has summoned everyone to come to today has not yet been dealt with.
"Don't worry, I have one more thing here. I called everyone here today. In fact, I just received an order from General Feng of Qin Mansion. I have to arrange for Yan'er to go to the military camp early tomorrow morning. Someone will come to pick her up."
"This was originally why I called everyone here at night, but now it seems that it is related to this matter?" But thinking about it, I think it is impossible. For a small family like the Jiang family to marry into the Cheng family, it is considered a high ranking, how could they possibly know each other?
General Feng.
But when General Feng of the Qin Dynasty spoke, it was difficult for the Cheng family to say no.
After experiencing all these things, Cheng Shuang thought, it would be a good idea to send him to the military camp and let Qin Fengxi take charge of it. Cheng Nuoyan was really neglectful in his daily life. It would be good to go to the military camp to train. Anyway, in today's peaceful and prosperous age, there is no such thing as going into battle to kill the enemy.
It's better to risk your life than to act recklessly outside.
As a princess, Jingyang has no room to interfere in this matter. In terms of righteousness and family ties, righteousness comes first. Without going into details, let’s just say that her great-aunt Qin Fengxi’s grandmother Yide Chang Princess is a role model. She and Qin Fengxi talked about it
We can also count them as cousins, they are from the same generation.
According to seniority, Cheng Nuoyan had to call him cousin.
Although Qin Fengxi should be called cousin according to her seniority, Qin Fengxi's seemingly gentle and easy-to-talk face is full of determination. In this Jizhou city, she would not hesitate to plead for mercy.
Cheng Song said to Mrs. Cheng: "Mother, in that case, my son can go to Jiang's house alone to apologize. As for Yan'er, he must go to the military camp tomorrow, and my son agrees to this."
He completely ignored whether Nian Cheng Nuo promised or not.
After a second thought, he asked Mrs. Cheng: "Did the person who came say that Yan'er was the only one in our family?" He wanted to guess Qin Fengxi's intention.
"After receiving the letter, I asked someone to inquire about it. I heard that the young master from Zhenguo's mansion is also going, as well as the young master from General Cao's family."
Cheng Song and Cheng Xun looked at each other. Not long ago, Qin Fengxi allowed Qin Shouqing and the others to become the little bullies, and made the situation a household name, so that everyone dared to be angry and dare not speak out, but did not cause any serious trouble.
The seedlings were allowed to grow in the past, but now the time was almost up and it was time to harvest. Without any excuse, the three of them were taken to the military camp.
The eldest son of Cheng Mansion and the son of General Cao became a small soldier in his camp. Not only did he punish a few boys, but he also gained a reputation.
The prince of the Duke's palace, the prince of the princess, and the son of the general can only start from the rank of soldier. The three of them are still suffering and dare not resist.
There are several advantages to doing this.
For one thing, in the future, anyone who wants to pretend to be a public servant, use power to seek employment for his son, nephew, Fengyin, or form a clique must consider whether his status is higher than these three. If a young man from the airborne troops comes and stands on their head in the future,
, we also want to see if these three people agree to let people ride on their heads and dominate them as soon as they come.
In the past, those who directly promoted family members and nephews to high positions but were incompetent for the job caused dissatisfaction at the lower levels and chaos in military discipline. In this way, all unhealthy tendencies can be completely eliminated.
Secondly, this time it was the three families of Qin, Cheng, and Cao who compromised, and I don’t know how many families will compromise in the future.
Most of the people in the military camps are poor people, and those with a little wealth are unwilling to send their children to the military camps to endure hardships.
From now on, no matter recruiting troops or implementing policies, few people dare to come forward to refute. There are three examples of Qin, Cheng and Cao.
The military camp of Jizhou Camp is already large and has strong military strength. There are no serious young masters and young masters in the camp to serve as soldiers in the military camp. Following the example of the three of them, in the future, the common people and poor children will have a more balanced mentality and win over people's hearts. Thinking of the children of aristocratic families.
Just like them, you have to earn military merit based on your ability. The morale in the barracks will be higher and the military style will be better.
Thirdly, in the past, those who were willing to serve in the military were generally only low-class people from poor or ordinary bourgeois families who wanted to make a name for themselves. The barracks were full of rude and ruffian culture, and most of these people were uneducated. Now, if children from various aristocratic families join the army,
Most of them have received a good education and have some literature, which improves the overall quality of the military camp.
It was no accident that Qin Fengxi was able to secure the entire Jizhou City at such a young age.
Qin Fengxi exists like a god in Jizhou City, and he can be put aside from the secular world and not be compared.
But Cheng Xun was also very satisfied with his son Cheng Nuobai, far ahead of his peers.
He is well-equipped in both civil and military affairs. He is not arrogant in literature and does not bully others in martial arts. What is even more rare is his temperament, which is gentle and polite, humble and respectful. It is a great pleasure to have a son like this.
Cheng Xun patted Cheng Sui's shoulder comfortingly, and said sincerely: "Then the Jiang family's apology will bother my second brother."
Cheng Nuobai thought for a moment and said to Cheng Xun: "Father, my son wants to go there with his second uncle in person. This will show the sincerity of our family."
Cheng Xun didn't come back to his senses for a moment, and looked at Cheng Nuobai seriously, seeing that his eyes were firm and his words were sincere. Just now, when everyone was still worrying about Cheng Nuoyan's mistake, he had already thought of apologizing.
Things are clearer than everyone else’s thinking.
The rise and fall of a family depends on the decision of the head of the family.
Cheng Nuobai looked at the approval in his father's eyes, and his face seemed a little hot.
Cheng Song and Cheng Nuobai left the city overnight with the gifts, and sent a steward to set off beforehand and rushed to Jiang's house to hand over greeting cards. They would visit and apologize early tomorrow morning.
They found an inn to stay in Yuncheng County near Jiang's home, and as a courtesy, prepared to pay a formal visit early tomorrow morning.
After settling in, it was already 2:00am. Cheng Nuobai was lying on the bed but couldn't fall asleep. He didn't feel tired at all after running around like this for more than an hour.
I got up early the next day, washed myself up and saw that there was nothing wrong with my body, then went out to meet my second uncle Cheng Shuang.
Cheng Song looked at Cheng Nuobai carefully and praised him: "As expected, he is very handsome and polite, haha. The Jiang family won't want to miss such an outstanding son-in-law. Don't worry, let's go."
Facing the compliments and jokes from Cheng, Cheng Nuo's face turned red again. It turned out that even his second uncle could see what he was thinking.
The Jiang family received a greeting card from the Cheng family last night, saying that they would come to apologize the next day. The dissatisfaction in the afternoon had been reduced a lot. The Tang family notified each hospital that a foreigner would visit tomorrow, and gave instructions to all the people in each hospital.
Women should not wander around in order to avoid collision and rudeness.
Jiang Lu and Jiang Hu went to work every day and were not at home, so Tang and Qiu met Cheng Song and Cheng Nuobai.
The three girls had gone to the inner room to take shelter when Cheng Song and Cheng Nuobai came in.
When Cheng Sui and Cheng Nuobai entered the room, they saluted Mr. Tang with a sincere attitude.
Cheng Shuang first apologized and said: "Mrs. Jiang, my nephew is here today to apologize for my son's unwarranted offense to the three girls yesterday. After learning about this incident yesterday, my nephew was very ashamed and regretted his usual neglect of discipline, which resulted in
He violated etiquette and behaved wildly. I hope the old lady and the second lady will forgive me."
After speaking, he made a respectful full salute.
Cheng Song was the emperor's personal consort. It was only because of the marriage between the Jiang family and the Cheng family that they were related by marriage. In normal times, how could a family like them be related to the Marquis?
In addition, Cheng Sui called himself his nephew in front of the Tang family and held the junior ceremony, which was considered as a favor to the Jiang family and the Tang family. Logically, everyone present including the Tang family should pay tribute to Cheng Sui.
Mrs. Tang was very angry when she found out yesterday that her three granddaughters had been wronged. She felt that the Cheng family had gone too far to bully others, but then she thought about what kind of family the Cheng family was.
The more prosperous it is, the less likely it is that it will be so childish to use these childish methods and lose its identity. Thinking that it was probably a child's joke, I gave up and didn't want to argue with the Cheng family.
Today, the Cheng family came to apologize so early in the morning, which shows their sincerity.
Mrs. Tang then said: "Master Hou, you don't need to be so polite. Yesterday, the three girls came back and reported the situation. They were just children playing around, so don't worry about it too much. Besides, we will all be in-laws in the future. If the children are playing around, the adults will not care about it."
If you worry, you will have endless worries."
After Cheng Song felt that the Tang family was indeed a scholar, they chatted and laughed some more and informed Tang family that Cheng Nuoyan and others had been sent to the military camp by General Feng.
Jiang Wei laughed when she heard this. Now that these three boys were imprisoned in the military camp, they probably wouldn't have enough time to come out to settle accounts with her.
In this way, Jiang Shi and Jiang Ying no longer need to pretend to be sick, and can go to the academy without worry.
I didn't expect Qin Fengxi to act so resolutely and swiftly.
Little did she know that her original intention was not just to help her.
While Mrs. Tang was talking to Cheng Shuang, Mrs. Qiu also paid close attention to Cheng Shuang himself. She had always heard that her sister-in-law Jiang Qing always disliked her husband for being fat and honest, and not as elegant and handsome as Cheng Shuang. She often talked about Cheng Shuang sadly.
People, since you are here today, you must take a special look.
Cheng Song has a slender figure, and is elegant. He is half a head taller than Jiang Qing's current husband, Zhao Wenchuo. His posture is dignified and there is no sign of wealth and obesity. Although he is in his thirties, he has white skin and red lips, and is elegant and polite. No wonder
Jiang Qing still feels unwilling after all these years.
I looked at Cheng Nuobai again. He was wearing a long milky white dress. He was also tall and lean but not frail. His clothes were simple and elegant, with a scholarly and elegant temperament. There was only a jade-inlaid belt of the same color around his waist, and a dark green jade pendant. In terms of temperament,
There is also some air of a son of an official family. There is a black bamboo embroidered at the bottom of the clothes. The black and white are elegant and harmonious. Naturally, he is a handsome and talented person. After all, he is a noble and noble son of an aristocratic family.
Seeing Cheng Nuobai like this, Mrs. Qiu was still a little itchy. With such talent, appearance, and family background, it would be great if he could be her son-in-law. However, the old lady was partial to older girls, and she couldn't take the decision.
There is only regret.
Tang also deliberately set her sights on Cheng Nuobai. Now that she saw him, he was as gentle as jade, with good looks and temperament. Such a good son-in-law was indeed Jiang Wu's blessing. Finally, she was relieved and very satisfied.
Fortunately, her persistence and strength allowed the eldest girl to have this good marriage.
