The pension plan of the ancient cannon fodder woman

Liu Niang felt happy when she looked at the young people around her.

"Aqiao, I have a suggestion. I wonder what you think."

Xu Qiao said curiously.

"Liu Niang, what's the matter?"

"From what I heard from you, you will be even busier in the future. You will have to go back to the capital in two months. You will stay there for at least one month, and another two months when you come back. If you calculate it this way, it will be at least seven months."

Everyone followed Liu Niang's idea and made some random calculations. Well, the calculation was correct, it was seven months.

"What I mean is, why don't you try to get pregnant this month and give birth to the baby when you have the most free time. You and Mu Tou can just focus on your work from now on. Your sister and I will take care of the baby, and Xiaobai is free too."

Xu Qiao's face suddenly turned red. She never expected that this was what Liu Niang meant.

Su He looked at the confused crowd and burst out laughing.

"Aqiao, I have really thought about it. This time you return to Beijing to report on your work, it will be the most leisurely time for you in the future. After the New Year, you will be 27 years old. It will be too late if you delay any longer."

Although Liu Niang spoke softly, she was inexplicably convincing.

Xu Qiao looked at Su He, and Su He nodded seriously.

"Aqiao, I think what Liu Niang said does make sense. From now on, when you are pregnant, you will have to blow out the lights and rest. It is absolutely impossible for you to stay in the study until Zichu like before."

Xu Qiao's eyes widened. Xu Zheng? Then she would have no midnight snack.

"You are pregnant, and it is hard work. You will be very tired. You will fall asleep by yourself by then."

Xu Qiao bit her lip and thought. In fact, she had often received letters from home in the past few years, urging her to have a baby. She was afraid that if she had a baby, she would not have the chance to be an official, so she had been deliberately using contraception.

"Don't worry, even if you are pregnant, your credit will not be taken away by others. After you give birth, take good care of yourself for two months, and the rest will be handed over to us. You just need to do your job as an official."

Su He patted Xu Qiao's hand and said to her.

"This is just our suggestion. Think about it yourself and discuss it with Mu Tou."

Hearing this, Xu Qiao looked at Mu Tou, who smiled gently at her.

"Aqiao, there's no rush. Let's eat first."

"Yes, yes, let's eat quickly, the food is getting cold. Mu Tou, why did Wenyuan and Aqing take annual leave this time?"

Liu Niang's goal had been achieved, so she quickly changed the subject.

Mu Tou laughed, looking as if he was gloating over someone else's misfortune.

"He went home to find a wife. They are both bachelors, so they can't escape this time."

Liu Bai also laughed out loud, "How long did they take leave for?"

"Four months. Two months at home, and then they'll be back when we leave. Just in time to take over from us."

"That's good."

Su He laughed out loud. She was really curious about what kind of girls these two guys would fall in love with.

Guangyuan Qu Mansion

"These are the best girls in Guangyuan. They are suitable for you in terms of family background, appearance, and talent. We will go to the temple tomorrow. Those girls will come to burn incense. You can look at them one by one."

Qu Zhengfeng was excited and even showed some flattery without realizing it. He smiled and took the scroll in his hand to Qu Qing for inspection.

"No need. I have already decided to marry my cousin from my maternal family. I will go and propose to her tomorrow."

Qu Zhengfeng's smile froze and he asked in disbelief.

"When did this happen? Why don't I, as a father, know about this?"

"I know about this, and I've agreed. Wan'er has been taught by her father since she was young. She is well-educated, talented, and even more amazing is that her appearance is as amazing as her talent. Wan'er and our Aqing are childhood sweethearts, and this is a match made in heaven."

Qu's mother walked in slowly and explained to Qu's father.

"Nonsense! You are lawless! Qing's marriage should be decided by me as a father. Why do you, a woman, butt in on it?"

Qu Zhengfeng threw the portrait in his hand, rushed to Qu's mother, pointed at her and cursed her.

"I always give in to you, but you think you are so great. This family's surname is Qu, not Liu."

Qu Zhengfeng was cursing vigorously when he was pushed by Qu Qing the next second.

Qu Qing stood in front of his mother, looking at his father lying on the ground with an expressionless face.

"This is the last time. If you dare to insult my mother again, I will change my last name immediately."

Qu Zhengfeng sneered and stood up.

"How dare you! Disrespecting your parents is the only thing that will cause you to lose your position as an official."

Mother Qu looked at her son in panic, "Ah Qing, I'm fine. You don't have to."

"I have already told Lord Su, and he agrees that I can change my surname. And this time when he returns to Beijing to report on his work, he will recommend merits for me. I will at least be a county magistrate. At most in a year, I will take my mother and sister away. You can stay in the Qu Mansion, just be the master and show off your power."

Qu Qing was not afraid at all. After he finished speaking, he even smiled at his mother.

"Mom, it's okay. It won't affect my son."

When Qu's mother heard this, she relaxed and stayed behind her son obediently. Now that her son had grown up, she would listen to him from then on.

"You're talking nonsense! You're still trying to fool me. I'm telling you, I'm going to sue you right now."

"then you go."

Qu Qing turned to his mother and said, "Mom, go pack your things. I will send you and your sister to your grandparents' home. You can live there peacefully and wait for me to come back and pick you up."

Qu's mother nodded happily. She hadn't been back for many years.

"I'll go and clean it up right away. I'll go inform Ah Yun and Ah Qing. It will be ready in half an hour."

Qu's mother laughed happily, turned around and ran away.

Qu Qing looked at his mother's back and smiled. He had been waiting for this day for a long time.

Half an hour later, Qu Qing personally rode his horse in front to lead the way, taking his mother and sister away.

Xufu

"You don't like these cousins ​​of yours?"

Compared with Qu Zhengfeng, Xu Wanli was more direct. He invited all the girls of marriageable age from his relatives to live in his mansion.

During these days when Xu Wenyuan was at home, he would occasionally run into his fragrant cousin every day.

"Well, I haven't slept well these past few days. I think I'm allergic to pollen."

After Xu Wenyuan finished speaking, he sneezed again.

"I will be returning to Guangyuan in a month. Lord Su said he would recommend me for a position as a county magistrate. However, my health is not good and I cannot do it."

Xu Wenyuan looked melancholy, "Dad, please forgive me for being unfilial. I can only resign and go home to inherit the family business."

"No, no, no, son, don't get excited. I'll let them go right away. We can discuss everything. Don't resign so easily."

Seeing that his son still looked sick, Xu Wanli immediately rushed outside and asked people to pack up the cousins' things.

"Let them go home for the New Year. Yuanbao, prepare red envelopes for me. Two hundred taels each."

Yuanbao, who was guarding the door, responded and went there immediately.

A quarter of an hour later, there was a cry in the distance. When Xu Wenyuan heard it, he immediately rolled his eyes and looked weak.

“I feel like I can’t stand up.”

Xu Wanli stamped his feet and rushed outside to shout, "Yinbao, go over and explain. If you keep crying, you won't get any red envelopes."

The power of silver was indeed strong, and the crying sound disappeared after a while.

Quarter of an hour later, Yuanbao and the other man came over to reply.

"Master, Master, and the cousins ​​have already set out."

Upon hearing this, Xu Wanli spoke to his son in a flattering manner.

"Wenyuan, this is all right now."

Xu Wenyuan straightened his back suddenly.

"I suddenly feel the air is a lot fresher. Dad, don't bring anyone home casually in the future."

Xu Wanli always felt that his son had hidden meaning in his words, but what could he do? His son had become successful now and had to listen to him.
