Chapter 137 Who to Marry

When Mrs. Wang returned to her yard, she was like an ant on a hot pot, wandering back and forth.

"What's wrong with you?" Yang Mingcheng said unclearly.

"I'm nervous!" Wang said pitifully.

"What are you nervous about?"

"Why should you be nervous? Dad!" Wang said angrily.

Yang Mingcheng became even more confused, "What happened to Dad?"

"That, that~" Ms. Wang couldn't say what she said, "What if dad marries a step-brother!"

Only then did Yang Mingcheng understand why she was nervous, but he said indifferently: "Just marry me. As long as dad is willing, we can have no objections!"

As for whether Yang Zhengshan would marry again, the three brothers of the Yang family had already had their thoughts.

If they had stayed in Yangjiacun before, they would definitely not have considered such a thing, but now that Yang Zhengshan has an official status and is still a third-rank commander, it is really normal for him to marry a step-in-law.

Not to mention the stepmother, even if she has ten or eight concubines, no one can say anything.

Therefore, the three brothers of the Yang family had long been mentally prepared for Yang Zhengshan's remarriage.

"Okay, even if dad remarries, it won't affect you, so don't worry about it!" The naive Yang Mingcheng obviously didn't understand Wang's nervousness.

Wang's nervousness is not because Yang Zhengshan will marry again, but because she doesn't know how to get along with her mother-in-law now.

Especially this is a mother-in-law who is a complete stranger.

At this time, her mood was the same as when she had just married into the Yang family.

Naturally, Yu Qingyi's existence could not be hidden from the Yang family, and soon everyone in the Yang family knew that there was an extra woman in Yang Zhengshan's house.

In the third room, Yang Minghao and Liang were also talking about this matter.

"I don't know what that person's temper is like. If he has a bad temper, will he embarrass my daughter-in-law?" Mrs. Liang was also full of worries.

"Don't worry, dad is not an unreasonable person, what are you afraid of when dad is here!" Yang Minghao was very confident in his biological father.

No matter how the Yang family is, as long as Yang Zhengshan is still there, a woman will not be allowed to turn the world upside down.

This comes from Yang Minghao's blind worship of Yang Zhengshan.

"Hey, I hope so!"

Mrs. Liang was still uneasy. She was worse than Mrs. Wang. At least Wang had served her mother-in-law, but she had never seen her mother-in-law since she married into the Yang family.

But compared to their uneasiness and nervousness, Yang Yunyan felt a little uncomfortable.

The father wants to marry a stepmother for them. The son can be carefree and careless, but the daughter will inevitably feel a little uncomfortable.

Sitting on the fire bed in the room, Yang Yunyan kept thinking of his mother's voice.

"Hey~~"

She felt uncomfortable, but she was the least suitable person to talk to among her five children.

A married daughter throws water out of the water. She, a married daughter, can still object to her biological father remarrying.

In contrast, Yang Yunxue has more say than her. After all, Yang Yunxue is not married yet.

When it was time for breakfast, everyone came to the main courtyard one after another.

Everyone gathered in the main hall, and Nanny Li had already brought several maids to bring the food to the table.

Yang Zhengshan finished his practice, washed himself, and sat on the main seat minding his own business.

"Eat it!"

Everyone sat down one after another, but their expressions were a little strange, and everyone looked towards the inner room from time to time.

Yang Zhengshan was busy planning the training of the garrison camp and did not notice their movements at all.

Now that he has taken control of the garrison camp, he should start training the garrison camp.

The garrison camp must be trained, but the training cannot delay the patrol and garrison tasks in the city, so how to train requires careful preparation.

"Dad, doesn't that lady want to eat?"

The quiet atmosphere was suddenly broken, and it was Yang Yunxue who spoke.

"Madam, what madam?" Yang Zhengshan raised his head and asked.

"The one in the room." Yang Yunxue said with a slight blush.

Yang Zhengshan didn't know why, so he turned around and looked inside the room, "You don't have to worry about her, just send her a meal later!"

How is it possible that prisoners still have to eat at the table?

"But isn't this appropriate?" Yang Yunxue continued.

"There's nothing inappropriate."

Yang Yunxue began to hesitate. After all, she was a girl who had not left the government, and there were some things she really couldn't say.

Seeing her younger sister acting like this, Yang Yunyan quickly took over the conversation and said, "Dad, if you want to marry that lady, you can introduce her to us first!"

She felt that since everyone was brought back, it didn't matter if they got to know each other first.

"Marry her!" Yang Zhengshan was stunned.

"Who should I marry?"

Everyone was also stunned, and then they looked at Yang Zhengshan with strange eyes.

What's the meaning?

Dad doesn’t want to marry someone else?

If they knew the word scumbag existed, they would be furious in their hearts.

I took the person home and brought him back to the bedroom. Who would believe you if you say nothing happened?

Yang Zhengshan looked at everyone with a stiff expression, then glanced in the direction of the bedroom, and finally understood what was going on.

He didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Meow! This time the misunderstanding is huge.

He really didn't expect this. He had no such intention in the first place, and naturally he would not consider it in this regard.

So he didn't expect that people would misunderstand him.

But for a while, he didn't know how to explain it. There were too many things involved and he couldn't explain it in just a few words.

But as the head of the family, he has the final say and whatever he says is what he says.

"Okay, this isn't something you should worry about. Just do whatever you have to do!"

Yang Zhengshan didn't give any explanation at all and just drove them away forcefully.

Everyone looked at me, and I looked at you, and they could only disperse.

Yang Zhengshan watched them leave and shook his head with a wry smile.

What is this?

He didn't have the heart to think about such messy things right now.

The situation in Anyuan Prefecture does not allow him to engage in those things where children love each other.

Thinking that there were still many things waiting for him to deal with in the front office, Yang Zhengshan got up and walked towards the front office.

Yesterday, he made a big show of his power in Chengguan Fort and captured Xu Wanfu and others. The impact of this incident has just begun.

As he expected, when he arrived at the front office, a number of officials from the garrison office were already waiting in the main hall.

"Sir, Xu Wanfu is dead!"

But as soon as he walked into the front office, Zhou Ren reported it first.

Yang Zhengshan nodded nonchalantly and said, "I understand, are all those people here?"

Zhou Ren cautiously raised his head and glanced at Yang Zhengshan and said, "Sir, everything that should come has come!"

Everything that should come has come!

That’s a good reply!

The corners of Yang Zhengshan's mouth curled up slightly.

Who should come at this time?

In addition to the officials in the garrison, there are naturally those officials in the forts outside the city.

One officer in charge of the garrison, two officers of defense, and seven officers of the garrison.

The garrison office has two defense offices, seven forts, nearly forty fire piers and beacons, and has more than 2,000 garrison troops and more than 3,000 military households.

Previously, the officials in charge of the forts had followed Xu Wanfu's lead. Now that Xu Wanfu was finished, it was time for them to see the situation clearly.

Speaking of which, Han Cheng was just a fake faggot who had no choice but to seek refuge with Xu Wanfu for the sake of his family.

But these fort officials are different. They are really outsiders. They will take refuge in whoever is strong. There is no bottom line at all.

However, they can only serve as useless things. Even Cao Han and Xu Wanfu dare not use them, let alone Yang Zhengshan.

Entering the main hall, a group of officials quickly stood up and bowed: "Greetings, sir!"

Yang Zhengshan waved his hand and sat on the main seat, "Everyone, take a seat!"

After sitting down, Yang Zhengshan glanced at the people below.

He had seen all of these people, but there was only one who he could name, and that was Tian Gui, the official of Guantun.

"Why are you all here?" Yang Zhengshan asked knowingly.

Everyone was silent. Tian Gui hesitated for a moment and then said: "Your Excellency has just taken office. We have prepared a small congratulatory gift for you. I hope you will accept it!"

As he spoke, he held a wooden box in front of Yang Zhengshan.

"..."

Yang Zhengshan really didn't expect that these guys would actually do this.

bribe!

Or they organized a group to bribe together in an aboveboard manner.

This really opened Yang Zhengshan's eyes.

Yang Zhengshan glanced at the wooden box. The wooden box was not big. It was definitely not silver ingots or gold. It must be silver notes.

He was curious about how much money these guys paid to bribe him.

After taking the wooden box and opening it, Yang Zhengshan's lips curled up slightly as he looked at the stack of banknotes inside.

Gee, that’s quite a lot.

They are all one hundred taels of silver notes. Judging from the thickness, there should be fifty of them.

Five thousand taels!

What a generous gesture!

It was not that Yang Zhengshan had confiscated money. Mr. Lu also gave him two thousand taels of silver as a thank you.

Two thousand taels of silver may not sound like much, but in fact two thousand taels of silver is already a lot.

Take the Yang family in the past as an example. Under good weather conditions, the harvest from a year of hard work was only twenty taels of silver. These twenty taels refer to the total income after selling the harvested grain.

This also includes the traveling expenses earned by Yang Mingcheng driving cattle carts to send people to the county town during slack farming periods. Yang Mingzhi occasionally does odd jobs to earn some money.

A large family can only earn twenty taels of silver a year.

However, the whole family was eating and drinking, and there was no money left over at the end of the year. Coupled with weddings, funerals, medical treatment and medication, it can be said that the Yang family was unable to make ends meet at that time.

For the Yang family at that time, let alone hundreds or thousands of taels of silver, even copper coins had to be counted.

Second Master Lu could easily come up with two thousand taels of silver as a thank you gift because the Lu family is the largest landowner in Anning County and the only prominent family in Anning County.

To the Lu family, two thousand taels of silver was naturally nothing.

But what about the officials in front of me?

They were able to come up with five thousand taels of silver!

Can they compare with the Lu family?

All of them combined and multiplied by ten cannot compare to the Lu family.

But they were able to come up with five thousand taels of silver!

Corrupt officials!

And he is still the kind of corrupt official who is insatiable.

Yang Zhengshan also served as a garrison officer and a defense officer. He knew very well how difficult it was to squeeze out hundreds of taels of silver from the military households in the garrison.

To put it bluntly, even if those military households were used to extract oil, they would not be able to extract much.
