Chapter 81 Wei Mingting was also promoted.
Wei Ruo continued to say to Xu Zhengyong: "Don't worry about the medicine. If you need anything, just write to me and I will prepare it for you." "
Sister Ruo'er, you are so kind to me! Youqing This girl is worth my time to me, Xu Zhengyong!" Xu Zhengyong was deeply moved.
"Anyway, the first thing is to ensure your own safety." Wei Ruo warned again.
Brother Xiaoyong sometimes does things impulsively and without regard for the consequences, so she has to nag some.
"Well, Ruo'er, don't worry, I'll take care of it." Xu Zhengyong agreed with a smile.
"By the way, Meimei brought a lot of things for you." Wei Ruo said and pulled Xiumei up.
Xiumei looked a little shy. After hesitating for a moment, she simply stuffed the cloth bag she was carrying into Xu Zhengyong's arms.
"What are you doing? Are you taking the opportunity to beat me up?" Xu Zhengyong asked.
The strength with which he threw the package was almost as strong as the strength with which others beat him.
"Why beat you and give you good things? Those are supplements to replenish your body." Xiumei explained.
Knowing that the baggage was full of supplements for himself, Xu Zhengyong couldn't help but grin: "Meimei, you are so kind to me! Even if you don't become my junior sister in the future, you can still be my wife!" "What are you talking about!" Xiu
! Mei immediately became angry and hit Xu Zhengyong with her fist.
Xu Zhengyong ran away quickly, holding the baggage in his arms tightly and not wanting to let go.
"Xu Zhengyong, stop!" Xiumei shouted.
Xu Zhengyong ran very fast, shouting as he ran: "If you don't stop, you will beat me to death! I was not injured on the battlefield. If you paralyze me when I come back, how will I explain to my comrades when I go back?" Wei
Ruo He and the wet nurse shook their heads helplessly. They were used to this kind of fight between the two of them. Anyway, nothing would really happen in the end, so they just let them go.
Wei Ruo and Xiumei stayed at the Xu family until dusk. It was too late and they had to leave. They said goodbye to the Xu family and got on the carriage back to the principal's residence.
###
Two days later, good news came from the Wei Mansion.
Xu Zhengyong was promoted from soldier to deputy and the general affairs were settled.
Wei Ruo asked Xiumei to send the medicines she had packed. She originally wanted to prepare more, but there was really no time. She was afraid that Xu Zhengyong would return to the military camp if she delayed.
At the same time, good news also came from the Wei family, and Wei Mingting was also promoted.
His actual position was promoted from Deputy Qianzong to Qianzong, and at the same time, his virtual position was also promoted from the sixth rank of Colonel Zhongxian to the sixth rank of Colonel Zhaoxin.
For a time, everyone in the captain's mansion was immersed in cheers.
Wei Mingting has been in the position of Vice President for a long time and has not been promoted for a long time.
A while ago, I was worried about the possibility of being dismissed or demoted.
Now it's better, the gloom has dissipated, and I'm full of joy.
"Quick, write a letter to the capital and tell the people in the uncle's mansion this good news!"
The Yun family arranged for their eldest son Wei Yichen to write a letter to the Zhongyi uncle's mansion in the capital to report the good news.
Although the capital city will definitely know the news before them, as a junior, they should still write a letter to explain the situation in the house.
Then he ordered the family to prepare a celebration banquet for her husband. Of course, this banquet was just for the family to gather together for a meal. Wei Mingting had ordered that there should be no extravagance.
The situation in Xingshan County has not been good recently. The condition of rice in many people's fields is not ideal, and the weather this year feels colder earlier than in previous years. All signs indicate difficulties this year.
In this context, it is not advisable to be too extravagant and wasteful.
In the evening, the Wei family gathered together.
Wei Jinyi, who rarely appears in the dining hall, appeared for the first time today.
Seeing Wei Jinyi, Yun was stunned for a moment.
"Mother." Wei Jin also said hello to Yun.
"Yeah." Yun responded without saying anything. Thinking about the special situation today, it was reasonable for him to come over to have a meal with her. She was surprised because it had been so long since he had come to the dining hall to have a meal with everyone, which made her unable to recover for a moment.
Wei Yichen came forward and took the initiative to greet Wei Jinyi: "Second brother, how are you doing lately?"
"Not bad." Wei Jinyi's answer was as indifferent as ever, just like his expression.
"When will the second brother go to Huzhou Prefecture?" Wei Yichen asked again.
"It should still take some time." Wei Jin also said.
"If you need anything, tell me." Wei Yichen said.
Wei Jin also nodded.
Wei Qingwan's eyes were on Wei Ruo. Wei Ruo was wearing a light green satin coat and skirt today, with her hair in a simple bun. She looked smart and bright.
The father has been promoted, and the eldest daughter in the family has gained more weight. Wei Qingwan knew very well that the more powerful the family, the more emphasis it placed on ordering the elders and younger ones.
When discussing marriage in the future, the eldest daughter will have the advantage.
Thinking of this, Wei Qingwan couldn't help but look dim.
Wei Ruo didn't pay attention to the other people's expressions. They were standing in the corner of the dining hall, but their minds were on other things.
She has a lot of things to worry about recently. In addition to the sweet potatoes in Xiaoyang Mountain in the north of the city, the improvement of wasteland in the south of the city, and the Xie family's medicine fields, Wei Ruo is also planning to use the 500 taels of silver she has recently saved to buy grain and coal from other places.
Wei Ruo was in a daze when Wei Mingting appeared in the dining room wearing casual clothes.
"Father." Wei Yichen stepped forward to say hello.
"Yes."
Wei Mingting responded, and then his eyes fell on Wei Jinyi behind Wei Yichen.
"Are you willing to go out and walk around today?"
"Yes." Wei Jin responded, his voice as calm as ever.
It seemed that no matter who was standing across from him, he would always react like this.
"That's very good. You should move around more and not stay bored in the yard all the time." Wei Mingting said with a pleased tone.
Then Wei Mingting's eyes fell on Wei Qingwan and Wei Ruo.
"Father." Wei Qingwan called obediently.
Because Wei Ruo was thinking about the problem, his reaction was much slower. When he noticed Wei Mingting looking at him, he shouted, "Father." "
Yes." Wei Mingting responded.
"Everyone, take a seat."
Wei Mingting said, and everyone took their seats one by one.
Nowadays, here in Xingshan County, there are fewer rules. If it were in Uncle Zhongyi's Mansion in the capital, based on the ages of the children in the family, men and women should have separate tables.
The large round table is filled with various dishes.
Tonight’s dishes are particularly rich: home-cooked aged yellow croaker, wheat shrimp, salt-roasted pork liver, steamed swimming crab, dumpling tubes, tofu dumplings, boiled chicken... You can clearly see a lot more seafood
.
This was what some fishermen caught after going out to sea after winning the battle. They specially sent the seafood to Xiaowei Mansion to thank Wei Mingting for defeating the Japanese pirates.
Wei Mingting felt happy when he saw it, not only because he had good food in front of him, but also because it meant that the people in the city could resume fishing to make a living. This was a blessing for Xingshan County, a county with extremely poor agriculture. Big good news.
At this time, Wei Jin also asked Xiaobei to bring in a jar.
"What good things did Jin Yi bring?" Wei Mingting asked curiously.
