8. Draft

Although Xue Wang's mouth often complained that Xue Pan was ignorant, he could see Xue Pan walking on the side, and hurriedly hugged him, "My son, your aunt has sent a lot of things over, and the May Festival ceremony has arrived, so I asked you to come and take a look, if you like anything, you choose first." ”

Xue Pan leaned on Xue Wang's shoulder, "What is a good thing, Mom can just keep it herself, Aunt and you are sisters, things can't be wrong." ”

While talking, Yang Liu and Yang Hua brought up the May festival gift of Mrs. Wang of Rongguo Mansion, Mrs. Wang counted, it is the sister of Xue Wang's relatives, not compared to those sisters, who used to be very close in the boudoir, plus the three princes Teng, they are very close sisters and brothers, so Mrs. Wang's festival is also very rich, two red sandalwood carved Panlong mountains and seas Ruyi auspicious cloud pattern of the square box is already very valuable, open a look, one box contains all kinds of gold and silver nudes, the other one contains all kinds of sachets, The smell was fragrant, obviously there were already good spices, Xue Pan looked at it and smiled, "I can't use any of these things, and it's useless to give them to me." ”

"There are several horses outside the cloud cloth made inside, it is a new cloth in the capital, it is said to be a new fashion, I took a look, it is very soft, and it looks like a cloud, it is the best to make clothes, I left two horses for you, and asked someone to make clothes."

Xue Pan nodded, "Is that really the case?" Since it's a good thing, we can't do it in the weaving house? Well," he instructed Yang Hua, "send one to Aunt Mei, let her make her own clothes, and by the way, take a look at other people's cloths to see if our family can make them." ”

There are no patents in this era, if it can be imitated, Jinling Weaving Mansion will have one more money-making product, "Well," Xue Pan is going to give the order again, "Send a sachet too," he was drunk and didn't know that his mother's hand around him seemed to be stiff.

Xue Wang was a little unhappy, "You are worried about others, Aunt Mei stays at home, she doesn't lack anything, and she doesn't have to send her anything." ”

"This can't be said like that," Xue Panxu was drunk and reacted very slowly, "In the end, it's my own family, who do I take care of?" ”

Xue Wang's anger was half dead, and Xue Baochai hurriedly played a round, "My brother has drunk too much, what is there to drink, hurry up and bring it up to relieve my brother's hangover." ”

Xue Wangshi felt more and more that this Jinling City could not stay, so she wanted to talk about the old topic before, "Your uncle has sent a letter urging us to hurry up and enter Beijing, I think that if it is a few days later, in the summer, this road is very hot, your sister is weak, I am afraid that it will be even worse if it is a tiring journey, if you want me to say, you hurry up and end the business outside, let's go out to Shendu and find relatives." ”

After saying these words, Xue Wangshi sighed again, "I'm also old, seeing that your brothers and sisters have grown up, except that you have a family and a career, there is nothing to worry about, but the sisters haven't seen each other for so many years, and their hair is gray when they see each other again, and they don't know how to meet in the future, they will meet a few times if they can meet each other, and when they meet your second uncle and aunt in Duzhong, if you want to come back, you will come back, I want to stay in Duzhong for a few more years, and reunite with the old sisters, even if I die, I am willing." As he spoke, his eyes turned red.

Baochai hurriedly comforted, and Xue Pan also took his mother's hand and said, "What's so difficult about this?" As long as you enter Beijing, the business here in Jinling is nothing more than the weaving house and the salt industry, and the rest is nothing, and now the people at home are doing good errands, don't worry about anything, as long as you check the accounts regularly, I also think, since it is four big and four people, but our Xue family lives in Jinling, and the rest live in Shendu, and there is less contact between each other, which is not a good thing, and I also want to run the business in the capital, although our ticket number in the capital is open, but the business is not too good, I was thinking about when I would enter Beijing to take a look and finish the ticket number business. ”

In addition, there are 1,500 salt quotation affairs in the southwest and northwest that Lin Ruhai explained to himself, although he wants to introduce salt, but he lives in Jinling, it is not suitable to live in a corner in the end, if he is in Luoyang, the east can control the affairs of Jinling, and the west can refer to the salt affairs of the southwest and northwest from afar, which is the most suitable, but there is still no need to talk to Xue Wang Ming about this matter.

Xue Wangshi nodded, "Pan'er, you say so, you can rest assured for your mother, this is a section, you have to meet your relatives first; The second one is still up to your sister's future. ”

Xue Pan smiled, "What, my sister is going to take the imperial examination this year?" If my sister can take the test, she must be able to take the test for a female champion. ”

Baochai said with a smile, "It's okay to talk about it in my own family, if my brother goes out to say, I really see a smile in the generous family, but I only know a few words, and it's not worth being the champion of what my brother says." ”

"Why can't you say that?" Xue Pan smiled, "My sister's talent is a hundred times better than mine, it's just that it's inconvenient to stay at home and go out, I was bullied by a few of them again when I ate wine today, if I have to be free next time my sister helps my brother get it back." ”

"Don't talk nonsense," Xue Wang said angrily, "You talk nonsense, and those brothers and young masters outside are not relatives, how can you see them indiscriminately?" Your sister's future is not like this, and your aunt wrote to say that the Ministry of Internal Affairs is preparing for the draft again this year. ”

"Draft?" Xue Pan's wine suddenly woke up for the most part, and he hurriedly asked, "What does this draft mean?" Could it be that the Lord Banzai is going to choose a harem? ”

"No," Xue Wangshi said with a smile, Baochai lowered his head shyly, "The draft is not to choose the harem, because today is to worship poetry and etiquette, recruit talents, and descend to the longen of the world. Although there are no heirs today, Emperor Yingzong also left a princess Huiqing, I heard that she was very favored before the holy queen, and she was also very favored, and your sister I don't want her to enter the palace as a concubine and concubine......"

"Naturally, no," Xue Pan hurriedly shook his hand, "The days in this palace, but are people living?" My sister likes poetry and books the most, don't you know the old verses: The white-haired palace maid is here, gossiping about Xuanzong. Our first family is now harmonious and beautiful, and we can see it every day, but it is stronger than anything else, not to mention what glory and wealth we are, and we are not those who are broken and want to send their daughters to the palace, counting on the glorious lintel. ”
