Chapter 016
In Huzhou An'an and steadily passed the New Year, winter went to spring, the yamen finally came with good news, Luo Yun was transferred to the Metropolitan Procuratorate to serve as the imperial history of the left city, is the fourth product, although it is the same level as the prefect, but it is a Beijing official who is the eight classics, with real power in his hands, supervising the major yamen, is the top of the jealous role.
In my memory, the original Yushi was born with a mean face, a cold expression, and lived like a king of Yama, Luo Baoying felt that the appearance of her father was put in the Metropolitan Inspectorate, which was really pleasing to the eye.
The old lady happily led a group of female dependents to repay her vows, and when she came back, she asked Yuan to hurry up and pack her luggage, because she would soon be servant, and she must not delay.
Xianggong was promoted, of course Yuan's was happy, and the small and trivial things were handled properly, this day and the old lady applied for money, when it came to Kyoto, the people who came and went were famous families, others were finely dressed, they couldn't lose their manners, and the implication was not to be ashamed, and they had to pick up again from head to toe.
That's a lot of money!
It is necessary to know that Luo Yun's annual income is only a hundred taels of silver, in addition to daily expenses and personal contacts, how much money can be left? It happened that the good land was not harvested, and the old lady was also stretched, but she was helpless, the dignity of a person was wanted, and after a few shaky hands, she handed over all the money in her hand.
There are more than two hundred taels, Yuan Shi looked at it in his eyes, his brows wrinkled slightly, only the Luo family knew that the old lady couldn't squeeze much oil and water, and after thinking about it, she pushed fifty taels of silver back: "Huzhou clothing and jewelry are not more expensive than Kyoto, and you still keep playing with leaf cards for these money." ”
This is what is good about the Yuan family, the old lady also knows, and took it with a smile: "Thank you for your hard work, I don't know what you like in Kyoto, you only dress up Yuan Zhao Yuanjue and a few girls." ”
Yuan Shi responded, and said that the problem of accommodation in Kyoto: "My eldest brother can still squeeze ...... there"
Without waiting to finish speaking, the old lady said: "It's not necessary, the old sister said early in the morning, if you go to Kyoto, you will live there first, they have a big Wei family, I have a friendship with her, and I don't need to push it around, wait for the yamen to arrange the house, and then move out." She paused, "In addition, the fields in Cheng County, I can see that they are sold, and they are far away and are not easy to take care of...... In the end, the official office is cramped, and in the future, Yuan Zhao and Yuan Jue will have to marry a wife. ”
How is it good to be crammed together like this? Speaking of which, I am afraid that no one will marry his daughter in.
That affected the entire Locke family, and Yuan also agreed: "Let the steward calculate it, and sell it if there is a suitable opportunity, but you can't be in a hurry and sell at a loss." ”
When it comes to thoughtfulness, the Yuan family is very proper, and the old lady naturally obeys.
Before Yuan retired, he said: "Since I live in the Wei family, I'm afraid that it will not be easy to bring too many idle people, so my daughter-in-law has made a list, and you can see if they are all sent." There are many well-educated slaves and maids in Kyoto, and if they are lacking in the future, they can be bought again. ”
The old lady was illiterate, and the list was handed over to the jade fan.
The jade fan read dozens of names, and when the old lady heard the word coral, she said in her heart that she was not serving Aunt Jin, if she sold all her maid rings, then Aunt Jin would ......
Is it useless to keep it?
I knew Yuan's methods early on, but I didn't expect it to be so vigorous, and the fingertips of the jade fan trembled slightly, thinking that it was fortunate that she had been in front of the old lady for so many years, otherwise maybe even she would have been driven away. The jade fan couldn't help but sigh: "I don't have a commendable place, I went to Kyoto with me, and I want to disgrace the old lady, the old man." ”
The old lady hurriedly said: "What are you talking about, I'm not used to it without you by my side, you have to follow me wherever I go, don't think about being comfortable." ”
Yu Fan said: "It's only comfortable in front of the old lady, if it's someone else, you have to go, but it's a pity that I've been at home for so many years." Is there nothing bad about buying a new one? Pick everything, and you won't be able to keep anyone at home one day. It's not that there's anything wrong with Madame, it's just that I feel sad. ”
There is no human touch, the old lady thinks to herself, she thinks that she is in the county, the neighbors are good, they are like a family, in this Huzhou, she has many card friends, and it is also lively and lively, and there is a lot of reluctance to leave. And that Aunt Jin, in the end, also gave birth to Baozhang, how can she throw it away?
The old lady waved her hand: "The name of the coral is marked." ”
In the end, Aunt Jin stayed.
Yuan's can't do anything, the old lady doesn't let go, she can't sit down with this master, as for Luo Yun, Aunt Jin is dispensable, Xu also listens to the old lady, she doesn't want to bother him at this juncture, she didn't mention it, she just led the girls to various shops and carefully selected.
Although Huzhou is not as good as Kyoto, but in Daliang, the prosperity has also entered the top ten, there is really a lot of silver to take out, there is no shortage of fine products, just look at Luo Baoying's eyes, that's it.
She was born noble, and when she was born, she enjoyed inexhaustible beautiful things, which was not top-notch, and she really couldn't lift her spirit, so she sat there, very well-behaved, and did not compete with others at all.
This kind of pear-like tolerance made Yuan nod slightly, this child is sensible, and he must be a good sister to his daughter in the future, and he picked a horse with her: "Bao Ying, take a look, do you like it or not?" ”
The cherry blossom-colored fine silk, the color is fresh and tender, as attractive as the fruit hanging high on the branches, the corners of Luo Baoying's mouth are upturned: "Mother, this material is so beautiful, but my sister looks better when she wears it." ”
Yuan smiled: "You don't care about her, since you like it, I'll cut it to make a skirt in a while." ”
That smile was very sincere.
Luo Baoying hurriedly said: "Thank you, mother." ”
The eyebrows and eyes are crooked and cute, Luo Baozhang's eyes are slanted, a little unaccustomed to her learning from Luo Baotang, pretending to be generous, what's the use of not fighting for anything? At the end of the day, will others really appreciate you? It's just going to take an inch, right? She snorted and picked out a piece of clothing that suited her.
The thought of going to Kyoto made me happy.
Fortunately, she is still young and has not been married in Huzhou, otherwise she will miss the opportunity, and when she gets there, she will definitely choose a son of a family to marry herself!
A few days passed in a flash, and soon it was the day when Luo Yun went to work, before leaving, the major officials and squires in Huzhou practiced for him, Luo Yun and the courtesy, even ate wine for several days, remembered that Mr. Jiang said to him, the mountains and rivers have met, he picked his lips and smiled, but I don't know who mud Bodhisattva crossed the river and it is difficult to protect itself.
Leaning against the wall of the car, Yuan rubbed his shoulders and said softly: "Master has been working hard these days, sleep on the road for a while." ”
Luo Yun smiled: "It's hard for you, my mother praises you for your quick hands and feet." ”
Yuan pursed his lips and smiled: "Is it difficult to let my mother work, it's all my duty." She leaned closer and pressed her face to his shoulder, "Why don't you go to live in the Wei family, is it really convenient, the Wei family doesn't gossip?" ”
She originally hoped that they would stay with her eldest brother temporarily, but the old lady was angry again, and she had to show off her friendship with Mrs. Wei.
Luo Yun pondered for a moment, smiled and said: "My cousin has also been in the Wei family for decades, if there is no such kindness, the Wei family is too mean, but the family still sold all the land and bought the house." ”
The Yuan family had no choice but to be good.
After traveling for a month on the way, I arrived in Kyoto, and saw the city gate from afar, Luo Baoying pushed Luo Baozhu, who was sleeping beside her: "Zhuzhu, it's here, look!" ”
Luo Baozhu hurriedly opened his eyes, his soft body was still in Luo Baoying's arms, and he shouted, "Where, where?" ”
Looking at her cheerful appearance, Luo Baozhang sneered and said, "Stupid, how do you look if you don't open the curtain?" ”
Luo Baotang pulled her bigger, through the car window, sure enough, I saw the city gate of Kyoto, towering into the clouds, just a glance, I felt that the city gate, the city wall is amazingly thick, thousands of troops and horses can't rush open, her voice: "This is Kyoto, the door is so big." ”
Not only is the door big, but it is even more all-encompassing, and you can't buy it anywhere else, here.
Luo Baoying has a kind of Kyoto pride in her, but she can't show it, otherwise others will think of her as a bad brain. Straight into the city gate, she also followed the few little heads poked out to look around, others saw it fresh, she saw the joy of returning to her hometown, sorrow, mixed feelings.
And this feeling, when I arrived at the gate of Dewei's house, the depression was even stronger.
Once upon a time, she stepped into this door because of her identity as the future granddaughter-in-law of the Wei family, but now, she is the cousin of Mrs. Wei, and no one knows her.
The hundred-year-old mansion of the Wei family was bathed in light in the evening, bright and heavy, and everyone walked in it, passing by the exquisite pavilions and pavilions, except for feeling in their hearts, they couldn't say a word. The years have carved wind and frost in this mansion, and it can suppress the guests who came here for the first time, and only amazement remains.
Entering from the Hanging Flower Gate, bypassing the shadow wall, and walking up the road, Luo Baozhu grabbed Luo Baoying's hand and said softly: "The Wei family is so big, several times bigger than ours, I don't remember how the road went." ”
"A few more walks back and forth will get you acquainted." Luo Baoying shook her hand, "Besides, I have to live for a few days...... when she was whispering, she heard Luo Baozhang let out a soft cry behind her.
It was so light that only those who were nearby could hear it, and Luo Baoying looked ahead in surprise.
Someone came.
The young man, who was nearly twenty years old, wore a blue spring robe with a light blue shirt, and he didn't know what it was woven for, and it shone brightly in the wind, even more dazzling than the daylight.
When I got closer, I saw his appearance, beautiful and elegant, clear and dusty, as if there was no trace of fireworks.
Everyone's eyes were attracted, even a girl as small as Luo Baozhu stared at him stupidly.
Only Luo Baoying, although she was also looking at him, but she had too many thoughts, and she saw that he was full of energy, not half haggard, and the anger surged up.
It seems that her death has no effect on him after all, right?
The more indifferent he was, the sweeter she smiled this time, just waiting to call him cousin!
