When I heard that Miss Xu was about to get married, some relatives and friends would inevitably send gifts in advance, and they were basically delivered to the eldest house. To outsiders, the eldest house represents the Xu family, and the second house is inconvenient to travel far away in the capital, so it is enough to state that it is double-packed on the gift list.

Wang was now thinking and sent someone to release the news. Sure enough, every household in Xiaojia Village sent gifts, and no one would deliberately distinguish between the eldest and second houses, even though most of the villagers came because of Xu Qingtang and his son.

However, Xu Wennai is now a dignified vanguard of the government army, and many gentry near the village intend to curry favor with each other, and some colleagues of the guards rushed over to take the gifts.

Wang Shile was satisfied and not only accepted all the gifts, but also deliberately went to the capital city and complained to the old lady and Xiao about why they kept their mouths tightly? The trouble made relatives and friends think that Cui Tao was going to get married by herself, but there were several families who would come here in a few days.

The old lady and Xiao didn't care about this, and just laughed and said that, so we can't let others run away and take a gift. Therefore, there was no announcement in the capital and told the servants not to say it randomly. Anyway, Xu Qinglian was going to Beijing to get married, and she would notify her relatives to come and make up for the wedding.

But because of this, Li Qiu was recently ridiculed by Wang Yu, the grandson of the eldest housekeeper Wang Fu. He laughed at him for not getting much benefits after following the third young master, and he didn't even have any face, and no one gave him a gift.

It turned out that Wang Yu and Li Qiu got married on the same day. The two grew up together since childhood, and they were of the same age and identities, and they both disliked each other. For a long time, Wang Yu followed the eldest son Xu Wen and suppressed Li Qiu everywhere. In the past or two years, because of Xu Hao's strong rise, Li Qiu became the hottest person in this generation. Wang Yu was jealous and tried his best to win back the game.

Getting married requires money and decent. Wang Yu used this matter to compete with Li Qiu and threatened to compare with the other party's charm. Although Li Qiu was not convinced, he had followed Xu Hao for so long and learned to be steady and low-key, so he kept this matter in his heart and did not show it everywhere. He had never mentioned it before, and planned to prepare for the marriage with his own abilities.

With the help of his family and the eldest son, Wang Yu spent more than four or five hundred taels of silver to build a new home decoration house with great fanfare and even built a small garden. He thought Li Qiu was no match for him. Unexpectedly, Li Qiu had money, and the rewards he received in one year alone would be less than eighty taels of silver.

This is not all that Xu Hao gave me some rewards. Last year, he traveled to the north and Princess Yan rewarded him a lot, let alone Mrs. Mu and Mu Ningxue.

Wang Yuxin built a yard, but Li Qiu had two new houses. Because there was no garden, everyone had a tie. Wang Yu bought quilts, clothes, etc. Li Qiu was so familiar with the shopkeeper of his own silk shop, so he bought a bunch of them at a affordable price. Wang Yu asked someone to bring back a lot of fun from all over the place. Li Qiu went to the shop where he made a red leaf nearby, and there was nothing from all over the world?

Wang Yu simply spent a lot of money to buy gold and silver utensils and various head and face jewelry. He proudly sent it to the woman's house. Li Qiu was not willing to be outdone, so he found the officials of the clan mansion and hired craftsmen to create some jewelry at a very low price, and also sent it to the woman's house.

As a result, Li Qiu had no money in his hand, and only fifteen taels of silver left was given to his hometown. Wang Yu also spent all the money in his family. He was unable to squander him anymore. For this reason, the Wang family peers were very unhappy and thought that the elders were biased. Li Qiu's parents were very dissatisfied with his son and Wang Yu's fight. After his son spent so much money, there was no need for the family to be angry with him. In turn, they advised Li Qiu to know how to stop when he was a person, and Li Qiu Xiaoshu agreed.

However, Wang Yu was unwilling to go to Xu Wen to spread rumors, saying that Li Qiu intended to make him unable to raise his head in front of the whole family, and even let everyone know that you are not as promising as the third master.

Xu Wen was very angry and gave him another 200 taels of silver for the sake of face. When Wang Xuanqing learned about this, he was determined to take revenge and rewarded him twenty taels. As soon as he happened to catch up with each family to give gifts, Wang Yu ran to the front door to welcome the guests. It was difficult for those who came to give him some rewards.

With this, Wang Yu took advantage of the situation and bought a lot of decent property than Li Qiu. He brags about it everywhere if he has something to do. Gradually, the family spread, making everyone say that Wang Yu is stronger than Li Qiu, and the third young master is just like that.

Li Qiu was very angry when he heard this. He felt that it was nothing to be embarrassed by his shame, but he could not embarrass the young master. Therefore, he has been depressed recently. He was embarrassed to open his mouth to his family, but he didn't want to tell Xu Hao just for his own face, and he didn't want to borrow money from his friends. Everyone knows that the young master's face is slandered.

I didn't expect that I would get the gift from the inner house today, which was enough to compete with Wang Yuyi. Li Qiu returned home happily. Before he could think of what to buy, a customer came.

It turned out that Mu Xi followed Xu Hao away from Beijing and ordered people to send twenty taels of silver before leaving. Mu Xi was well-informed and told several people privately to help Li Qiu. In this way, there were escort companions and people familiar with the guards who came to help. They received no less than 200 gifts in the whole afternoon, and one after another after another. Every moment, someone came to the door with a gift box. The Xu family was shocked, and everyone sighed that Li Qiu was too proud.

Even the butler of the Mu family heard the news that his wife and the young master had 200 taels of silver. When the news came out, the servants were envious. Wang Yu was so angry that he jumped and got angry at home.

The problem is that this is not over. The next morning, the father-in-law of the Yan Prince's Mansion came to his door to personally send three generous gifts, two for the two ladies of the Xu family, and one for Li Qiu. In front of many people, the father-in-law laughed and said that he was old ministers with Li Qiu. Li Qiu was the right hand of the third son of the noble family. How could the prince's mansion not express it?

What's even more amazing is still behind. Li Jinglong and other noble children who are good friends with Xu Hao on weekdays, because someone said at the banquet that Xu Hao was about to get married, they all sent people to send gifts. After all, Li Qiu walked around with Xu Hao all day long, and he was basically the one who came forward to do things. Therefore, everyone recognized him and gave the Miss Xu family gifts, Li Qiu would be even more responsible without looking at monks and Buddha faces.

In addition, there is the future son-in-law of the Xu family, Zhang Fu, who has paid special attention to the movements of the Xu family since he got engaged with Xu Qinglian. He knew that Li Qiu was Xu Hao's confidant, so he wrote a trust to the guards in the capital to give him a wish. When Xu Hao went to the Yan Palace earlier, Li Qiu often fucked and chatted with the guards. He had some friendship. Seeing that Zhang Fu had given gifts, because of Xu Hao, everyone felt that it was not good and didn't say it, so they gave half a tael of silver to each person.

There were also classmates such as Zhang Liang and Xue Wen, Zhou Peng and Zhang Xin and other friends who heard about this matter were not known, so they immediately got a gift, so naturally Li Qiu's was indispensable.

This incident immediately caused a sensation in the entire Xu family. It is said that during the Chinese New Year, he witnessed the endless scene of coming to give gifts. It was because the third young master was appointed as the governor of the Jinyiwei at that time. Now, there are so many nobles and friends who are from the sixth rank of temple master who are specializing in gifts. It can be seen that the rumors that the young master has a vast relationship are true.

Just when people think that this matter has come to an end and Li Qiu won Wang Yu, on the third day, the little Marquis of Heshou, Zhang Yu, came with someone and gave him three gifts, silver and other gifts in person. Among them were two sets of dresses sewn by Zhang Yueyun and several accessories, which were specially given to Xu Qinglian.

In the afternoon, the two adults, Niu and Horse, and their officials, who visited Taipu Temple, arrived, had a lot of Li Qiu's share. Who told him that he had sat in the tea room outside the yamen every day recently, and the officials who came and went to recognize him.

In the officialdom, these small details are particularly important. Sometimes, compared with the officials themselves, the people below are more valued. Confidences are more useful than facing officials, because no one knows the temper and preferences of their masters better than those of their confidants.

This is the case in the world. Once someone takes the lead, it will soon spread, everyone knows it, let alone the officialdom with an antenna on his forehead. Before the sun could set, gifts from some yamen such as the Ministry of War arrived. Of course, each gift was not heavy, just one year during the Chinese New Year, and the maximum value was no more than three taels of silver.

The son-in-law Wang Ning and the other son-in-law were very familiar with Xu Hao, and even the enemy Ouyang Lun would not be stingy on the surface; the third uncle Xu Yingxu and the fourth uncle Xu Zengshou and the wife of the eldest uncle Xu Yaozu, the princes of each royal family knew Xu Hao's royal family, the Geng family and the Guo family and other nobles, and even expressed their opinions. For some reason, in addition to the gifts given to the two ladies of the Xu family, each family pointed out that they would reward Li Qiu himself with a gift. It seems that Xu Hao's true identity as the emperor's confidant could not hide it from the people in the capital, so they used this matter to show goodwill.

The Xu family has changed from shock to numbness. Xu Hao's majestic image has once again been infinitely raised. Everyone looks at Wang Yu, who is in a state of loss with pity. Wang Yu wishes to hit him to death.

In this way, without Xu Hao himself knowing it, in the officialdom, based on the concept that if someone else gives it, I have to give it to you, I have more or less expressed it. Accumulating a lot of money, Li Qiu has made a lot of money now.

Wang Yu finally convinced. In the face of the facts, it is impossible to admit defeat. The eldest young master can't sell his money for the sake of face. Besides, what if he pays out tens of thousands of taels of silver? Is he comparable to the gods who give gifts from others? That is the most respectable person.

Just as Wang Yu was about to stop the battle, this incident angered Xu Wen. He did not fight for the steamed buns and was fighting for the tone. As the eldest son and grandson of the Xu family, he had to compete to the end no matter what.

That night, Xu Wen called out the dog-headed military advisor Xu Ji. The two brothers decided to separate the next day. Soon Xu Wenla came to sponsor the twelve personal guards. Some familiar officials and guards did not express their status because of their bad status. They hesitated and did not even give gifts, but just gave a gift list without a signature. Xu Wen wanted a false reputation rather than a substantial money.
