Chapter 1401 [Updated on August 28th]
Because the fourth master and Ruoyin are micro-service private interviews.
Therefore, Wu Yunli was only slightly blessed, "Yunli has seen the fourth master and his wife. ”
Ruoyin looked at Wu Yunli casually.
Just one glance, it amazes the eye.
Even if she is a woman, she can't help but sigh that Wu Yunli is beautiful.
That Wu Yunli combed the drooping hair that only a girl who had not left the room could comb.
Some of the hair is knotted at the top and does not need to be supported, so that it hangs down naturally.
The other part is tied with a tail and hangs over the shoulder.
Wu Yunli is delicate, with a snow-white complexion, wearing a light blue skirt, and is full of beauty.
At this time, a servant approached, "Master, you have made all the meals prepared in advance ready." ”
Wu Sidao nodded with satisfaction, he glanced at the darkening sky, turned to the fourth master and said: "You wrote a letter saying that you want to live in the cold house, I will ask the servants to clean the courtyard early, and prepare some good wine and food, why don't we have dinner first, and then I will take you and your wife to the cold house to take a look at your room." ”
"Gyokuro, you still like to drink so much." The fourth master patted Wu Sidao's shoulder heartily.
Gyokuro is another name for Wu Sidao.
Immediately afterwards, Wu Sidao invited Ruoyin and the fourth master into the courtyard.
Ruoyin followed with her minions.
Wu Sidao has a leg disease and walks with a limp.
But he was disabled and strong-willed, so he didn't let the servants support him, and he refused to use crutches, so he insisted on taking his own steps step by step.
Ruoyin Judging from the conversation between the fourth master and Wu Sidao, it is estimated that Wu Sidao is a strategist that the fourth master appreciates very much.
Otherwise, the fourth master would not be able to trust him so much, come to his house as a guest, and stay for a while.
Moreover, he and Wu Sidao get along very easily.
Of course, Wu Sidao did not call the fourth master you, which also has something to do with the fourth master's private visit.
Because when he was in the Hidden Mansion, the fourth master was still Prince Yong, and although the relationship between the fourth master and Wu Sidao was casual, it was not so casual.
After all, when the fourth master ascended the throne, he wanted to make it for Wu Sidao as a big official.
If this is replaced by someone else, I would like to become the founding minister.
But Wu Sidao didn't care about these fame and fortune, and refused on the grounds that he had a leg disease and it was difficult to get into the elegant hall.
A person who doesn't even care about these things suddenly flatters a person will surely make people suspicious.
Therefore, the more casual Wu Sidao at this time, the better.
However, Ruoyin believes that gaining a foothold in the court mostly relies on talent and resourcefulness, not skin.
If a minister is handsome, if his talent is not enough, it is in vain.
As far as the eye can see, there are also many disabled people standing in the temple.
Just because they have great strategy, no one dares to gossip about him.
And Wu Sidao's strategy is naturally outstanding.
Otherwise, you can't have the title of Master Shaoxing.
Therefore, Wu Sidao is likely to feel that the companion is like a tiger, so he retreated to the government and the opposition.
is as favored as the thirteenth master, and he is often trained by the fourth master, not to mention his Wu Sidao.
And when Wu Sidao was in the subterfuge at that time, he came up with a lot of ideas for the fourth master, and he knew too much.
At that time, the two often fought over some things.
Now that the fourth master has become the emperor, naturally he can't fight anymore.
One is the emperor who is dictatorial and autocratic, and if he faces each other in the court all day long, he will remember all kinds of things in the past.
It's like many emperors have very little affection for the first woman.
Because the first woman will remind them of the nervousness and cowardice of that time, even the shame of the time.
And when they had entered the antechamber, servants came up to prepare their meals.
Su Peisheng tested the poison as usual a few times, and then let the fourth master and Ruoyin taste it with confidence, which has always been the rule.
Moreover, it is not only the emperor who tests the poison.
In this dynasty, many people with status in society will do the same.
And the higher the status, the more rules.
Because they have offended many people in society, they will be cautious in everything.
After testing the poison, Wu Sidao said politely: "Fourth master, madam, these are our Shaoxing specialties, you can try them." ”
Ruoyin smiled and nodded.
I saw that there were osmanthus drunk chicken, drunk crab, drunk shrimp, oolong tea braised pork, squid leek flower, golden jujube bullfrog, Dongpo meat, crab roe lion head, grilled whole pig's head, braised silver carp head and so on......
For eating, Ruoyin is never too polite.
Save yourself from being hungry, and you will suffer by yourself.
So, she started tasting local specialties.
As for the fourth master and Wu Sidao, they talked about the men's affairs and the local events in Shaoxing, and kept their mouths shut about the affairs of the imperial court.
"Recently, when I was passing through the Gangnam area, it seems that women have started to look for errands everywhere or do business on the streets." The fourth master said.
Since the fourth master ascended the throne, he has been in the Forbidden City almost every day.
During this southern tour, I learned that the labor force of women has greatly improved their manual ability.
Wu Sidao has always been in the people, especially after resigning and returning to his hometown, and he has a lot to know about civil affairs.
He nodded and said, "As early as ten years ago, there was a chain industry in Beijing that began to provide employment opportunities for women. And the response was not bad, and then the chain industry gradually developed to all parts of the Qing Dynasty, and the rest of the industries followed suit after they knew about it. ”
"So the labor force of women began to rise, especially in the past few years, there is a benevolence garden in the people, which teaches women weaving and handicrafts for free, and also teaches them knowledge, doing small business, and how to sell rouge gouache and silk satin, so that they can be better employed."
"In addition, those who have been working in the property of Renshanyuan for more than five years can enjoy free care for the elderly in the nursing home of Renshanyuan, and the children can also go to school in its free school, so that the burden on the woman is reduced, and she can boldly and confidently devote herself to employment."
"Not only that, some women who want to do small business but are strapped for money can borrow money from Renshanyuan by mortgaging their real estate and land, and the interest rate is much lower than borrowing expensive profits."
"Listen to what you mean, isn't this Renshan Garden a charity, how can it still have an industry?" The fourth master asked.
Wu Sidao took a sip of wine and said, "Of course you have to have an industry, otherwise how can you feed so many people." ”
As he spoke, he took a bite of food, "By the way, I forgot to tell you, I heard that the predecessor of this Renshan Garden was the chain industry in the capital that first provided employment opportunities for women. ”
"Why didn't you know there was such a thing?" The fourth master raised his eyebrows, "What is the name of that chain industry?" ”
Wu Sidao smiled, and said in his heart that you have all kinds of opportunities every day, of course you can't notice this.
He shook his head, "You don't know anything in the capital, and I don't know anything about it in Yangzhou." ”
In fact, he was a little curious, why did the emperor deliberately mention women to him today.
The fourth master saw that Wu Sidao was not clear, so he didn't continue.
Wu Sidao added: "The person who wants to come behind this curtain is also a strong woman, otherwise how can she do so many good things for women." ”
