There is a hot stove in June, but no one asks about the cold stove in the cold winter.

That night, Ouyang Jin was half drunk at the Xu family. When he returned home, his mind was full of these two emotions.

So what if Xu Ziqian had sold his butt? So what if he had been the male favorite of King Jin? The King of Jin was still locked up in the mansion, but now he is a serious sixth-rank official from the Ministry of Justice. He is of the same rank as when Ouyang Jin was dismissed from office.

But how old is he now? How old is his future? How can he compare to his future?

Look at the wife he married, although she is not a scholarly family, she is also the legitimate daughter of a serious official family. Ouyang Jin naturally has no chance to meet her wife, but from her generous dowry, it can be seen that the woman is quite satisfied with the marriage.

During the meal, the old guy Xu Shaochun actually showed off to him with a shameless face, "These dowry is only open. The woman also dowed a small yard with two inches, and moved there in a few days. Lord Ouyang, your eldest son has been engaged long ago. Should he consider buying a new yard when he gets married? He can save him from being crowded together and being uneasy with each other."

Bah! Ouyang Jinxin said, your wife is born again, after all, she is a business-based family, and she earns half of her position in the new dynasty by spending money. How can she compare to Ouyang Zhuang’s wife, who is a serious official lady?

However, I feel really unbalanced.

Things like Xu Ziqian that are not good at class have become sixth-rank officials. Who is his son now?

Of course, if he compared his adopted eldest son, the Xu family and his son would not be able to catch up with him even with their shoes. But the problem is that the son is no longer his. Especially after the separation, he has no connection with him.

Alas! Ouyang Jin sighed to the sky, how evil is he doing? He was so ungrateful? Fortunately, he was born so beautiful. If he had known that he would have sent him to perform since he was a child, I was afraid that he would be able to exchange a lot of money for himself now.

Just as he was angry, a servant suddenly came to report, "The Fourth Master of Xu's family next door has sent someone."

Ouyang Jin was stunned. Isn’t Xu Si the only one who is Xu Ziqian? He just came back from a wedding banquet at his house, so why did he send someone?

"Call someone in."

Soon, a clever servant came in and smiled and presented a brocade box. "There are many people in the family just now, so our fourth master has no time to greet him. Let the young man come over and give Mr. Ouyang a gift. I hope he won't be disgusted."

Ouyang Jin opened the brocade box and saw a pair of gold cups filled with silk treasures.

This pair of golden cups was used by Xu Ziqian when he was toasting. Because he looked at Jingui, Ouyang Jin took a few more glances. Unexpectedly, Xu Ziqian noticed it and washed it cleanly. He sent it to him.

Ouyang Jin was very happy, but said politely. "Your Silang is so polite. This cup is a newlywed item. Why are you giving it to me? Take it back quickly."

The servant smiled, "If it is an ordinary object, our master has used it, he will not dare to give it to you. It is because it is a newlywed object. Our master has only used it for a while before he dares to show off his ugly face. You don't have to be polite. Please accept it and play. Our master said that after two days of free time, he will invite you to have a drink. He has been a neighbor for so many years, and he still has many things to ask you, the uncle."

How long has it been since Ouyang Jin been so flattered? I just feel that every pore in my body is stretched out and I enjoy it extremely.

He threw away his disgust towards Xu Ziqian, but instead developed a favorable impression of him. He did not forget his roots after getting rich and honor, which shows that he was a sentimental and righteous person, much better than his bad eldest son.

So he agreed happily and took the pair of golden cups back and played with them carefully.

The servant went back and replied. Since Xu Ziqian became an official, a slight smile appeared on his solemn face, "Do you do well, go down."

He will never forget the neglect he had when he asked for help that day and went to the Puyuan.

Thinking about how he wanted to make friends with Ouyang Kang, but he didn't help when he was in trouble, Xu Ziqian felt full of resentment.

Especially when Ouyang Kang came to the countryside, he was not as good as him. Why did he get to such a high position? Isn’t it just a waste of luck and marry a good wife?

Xu Ziqian is also unbalanced.

Make friends with Ouyang Jin, it may not necessarily hit him, but if you take a closer look at his family's bad luck, it would be quite satisfying if Ouyang Kang was in trouble and stab him again, right?

Xu Ziqian imagined such a picture in his heart and went to see his new wife.

Although this marriage is just a matter of interest and I have long inquired about the bride's appearance, when the veil was lifted and I saw that ordinary face, Xu Ziqian was still a little disappointed.

Thinking about Missing Miss Fu's pretty and lovely face, Xu Ziqian's heart was even more distant.

When I didn’t, I just thought it would be nice to have a serious wife, but when I got married, I started to feel unsatisfied again. Why can’t I be a little better?

Why did I have such a tragic fate, but Ouyang Jin was so lucky?

Unfair, this world is really unfair!

After blowing out the candle, Xu Ziqian returned to the bed in a dark way. Because he didn't like it, he had to deal with it.

When he went to bed, the bride was also full of resentment.

If her husband doesn't like her, how could she marry such an infamous husband? No matter how good-looking she is, she feels disgusted when she thinks that she is a Zeng Xi who is beneath a man.

But her father and brother who are greedy for power must marry her. What can she do? Although she only looks mediocre, if she chooses a relatively low-level family, she can live a harmonious life with her dowry.

Now that she is following such a person, even if she doesn't dislike him, he dares to dislike herself. The more she thinks about it, the more angry the bride becomes. After all, she is the daughter of a merchant. She has learned to be petty and not gentle and kind. Since she doesn't let her live a good life, she won't make you feel better!

So, Xu Ziqian, who had just fallen asleep, was woken up by his newlywed wife and deliberately lit the lights.

"My husband is beautiful, I want to take a few more glances. People say that ** is short, why did you fall asleep so quickly? Are you weak? Should you hire a doctor?"

If you don’t want to do this, Xu Ziqian’s face instantly turned more than one layer darker.

...

The next day.

The Tan family and their party finally ended their long and hard trip and returned to the capital. Ouyang Jin finally picked them up, and then went to Poyuan to say hello, and Dad Shi returned to Prince Ping's Mansion first.

The old lady understood that they were tired from the journey and asked for peace when they met, so she asked Ouyang Lian, Tan, to go home to rest quickly. Hot water was also prepared here, so that Ouyang Qing could wash away the dust and rest for a while.

Only Su Cheng couldn't hear the news about Lingzhou tea tax, and he was worried about it, and he didn't know how his apprentice was doing there.

Ouyang Kang did not make a bad effort in Lingzhou, but he had to pursue his wife, so he had a bad effort along the way.

Before, the best carriage and honor guards were brought back to Beijing by Tan. When Nianfu and his daughter left, they took away the ones that were once again. When the father-in-law and son-in-law set off, they were only a double horse cart left, dragging his old Taishan and Xiao Doctor Zou, and a few small carts containing luggage, all the rest were horses.

On a cold day, I was rushing to the road against the wind and snow. Even the rough men of Tong Chaoyi couldn't stand it, let alone Ouyang Kang.

Although he had worked hard on the grassland during the year he was on the mission and had a much stronger ability to withstand it was still hard to do it again.

I don’t know if it’s because I’m too excited and I’m more prone to getting sick, or the sequelae of being anxious to get angry before. In short, within three days, Young Master Ouyang suffered from a cold again. He dragged two tubes of long nose and squeezed into a carriage with his father-in-law.

Fearing that he was sick, he covered himself tightly with his cloak, and only shrank it to a palm-sized place beside the car door to reduce contact.

In fact, Mu Shaoqin did not dislike him, but advised him to stay and take care of him before going on the road. "I see that many guards have caught a cold too. Why don't you take them behind and walk slowly, so don't delay minor illnesses and become serious illnesses."

Since they handed over 200,000 taels to the people, many families who acted quickly have started to set out. As long as they are not in a hurry, they can make friends with them.

Xiang Tong Chaoyi had a few of the men who were seriously ill, so they all gave money to keep them.

But how could Ouyang Kang keep it? His wife is pregnant now, so how can he not be in a hurry? Not to mention the cold, he would not stop even if he had broken his arms and legs.

Mu Shaoqin was quite able to understand his feelings, and it would be fine if he refused to listen when he persuaded him.

But thanks for his hard work, Dr. Xiao Zou not only boiled medicine for the sick Young Master Ouyang every day, but also had to smoke in the carriage to avoid infecting the more precious Prince Ping. The struggle along the way was free and bitter.

※

It is still that small hill town, and it is still that small temple.

However, after a night of rest, Nianfu, who came here again, had already put away the complicated emotions of yesterday, his eyes as light as water.

"Bring people up."

With an order, Ouyang Zhuang brought the man up. Yesterday he accompanied them all together, so he naturally knew what happened. When Nianfu left, he handed the man over to him. At this moment, he naturally had to bring him out.

There are two people, one man and one woman.

The man is the cook, and the woman is the jade onion.

After being locked up all night, of course, the two of them were not much better. They looked dull and looked tired.

Seeing her coming, Yu Cong said hoarsely, "Princess, why did you tie me up?"

Nianfu glanced at her lightly, without saying a word.

But he heard a faint sigh outside the window, "Ping'er, stop talking."

A middle-aged man with a tall and majestic figure, carrying his hands on his back, walked into the house like a walk in the garden, "Princess, offended."

If it’s not Ji Longfeng, who is it?

Nianfu nodded slowly, not too surprised, "I knew that Uncle Long was not an ordinary person, but I didn't know who the sacred person was?"

Ji Longfeng glanced at Ouyang Zhuang and said, "This is my brother-in-law. If you have anything to say, I won't hide it from him."

Ouyang Zhuang was stunned. Unexpectedly, Nianfu believed him so much. He felt a little mixed in his heart, but soon he was moved and a deeper sense of responsibility.

But Ji Longfeng still refused to tell his identity and said, "You only know that I will never hurt you mother and daughter."
