With a hundred thousand guan tied around his waist, he rode a crane down to Yangzhou.

It has been prosperous since ancient times. Except for Jinling and Luoyang, no city in the world can surpass Yangzhou.

Yangzhou is also beautiful in October.

The slow autumn light cannot be retained, and the red leaves are full of dusk.

It's a pity that Jia Lian didn't care about these beautiful scenery, and only focused on looking through the window of the carriage, unscrupulously looking at Yangzhou, which was different from the northern country.

Just when Jia Hui conquered Gai Ze, Jia Lian also arrived in Yangzhou.

As soon as they got off the boat, the sharp-eyed steward of the Lin family saw his housekeeper, so the person in front of him must be the young nephew of his wife's mother's family.

The steward of the Lin family stayed where he was and watched the unloading of the goods with the steward of the Jia family who had accompanied them south. The steward of the Lin family led eighty generals to the Xunyan Censor's Mansion.

Getting closer and closer to the Censor's Mansion, Jia Lian also became quieter and became more and more nervous from looking around at first.

In his limited memory, his aunt was not a good person.

One of my favorite hobbies before getting married was teasing the younger generation.

Especially the three brothers Huizhulian.

It's okay not to think about it, but now the more I think about it, the more panic I get.

How Jia Lian hopes the carriage can keep going like this.

But the carriage still stopped. As soon as the curtain opened, the Lin family's housekeeper asked Jia Lian to get out of the car first. Jia Lian decided that it would be better to go in first and have a look. Maybe her aunt will become a good wife and mother after giving birth to her cousin.

My aunt's family lives in the backyard of the Yushi Mansion, and the front yard belongs to the office. Outsiders should not be allowed to enter, but Jia Lian is a first-class Shenwei General in the Rongguo Mansion, and he also has the official status of a Dragon Guard, so he can barely

Go through the door.

Lin Hai is already waiting in front of Chuihua Gate.

Lin Hai is also very happy about the arrival of Jia Lian, his nephew.

It has been nearly six years since he was awarded the title of seventh-level supervisory censor of Lantai Temple after the end of his political watch, and was sent to Yangzhou by Lantai Temple to serve as the salt inspector.

I haven’t seen my mother-in-law’s family in nearly six years.

Although his wife never said anything, Lin Hai felt more and more guilty when he saw the smile on his wife's face getting less and less.

Now that things are going well, the uncle of the Yue family sent his legitimate son to Yangzhou to play with his wife... to take care of his wife. Lin Hai is even more looking forward to Jia Lian's arrival.

Until now, Lin Hai still hasn't told Jia Min about Jia Lian's arrival.

There was a noise in front of him. Lin Hai took a few steps forward and saw a handsome young boy walking towards him. Lin Hai recognized Jia Lian at a glance. Although his figure had grown longer, his facial features were still the same as six years ago.

Same.

Jia Lian saw that his uncle Lin Hai was already standing in front of the Chuihua Gate, waiting for him, so he quickly walked over and saluted.

"My nephew Jia Lian, meet my uncle..."

"Why are my family so polite? Come on, brother Lian, come with me to meet your aunt."

Lin Hai quickly picked up Jia Lian, smiled and touched the horns on Jia Lian's head, and pulled him towards Jia Min.

"Ah, uncle, didn't you tell aunt that I came to Yangzhou?"

While walking on the road, Lin Hai and Jia Lian talked about his surprise plan for Jia Min. Jia Lian was a little surprised.

"I never said before. It's already noon and I have prepared a banquet. You follow Qiu Ju to the banquet and wait while I go to find your aunt."

Before he finished speaking, Lin Hai walked towards Jia Min's courtyard and stepped away from Jia Lian. Jia Lian also experienced this kind of scene for the first time. He had nothing to say, so he followed Qiu Ju towards the main hall.

An old lady was already sitting in the main hall. Seeing Jia Lian come in, she looked at him with a smile. Jia Lian recognized that she was the old lady of the Lin family who had come to the house when her aunt got married a few years ago, and immediately knelt down to say hello.

"Jia family Jia Lian, please be safe and well, my old lady!"

Mother Lin repeatedly asked Jia Lian to come to him, took out a small gold necklace containing Manjusri Bodhisattva from her sleeve and hung it around Jia Lian's neck. Jia Lian pushed it away a few times, saying, "I dare not refuse the gift from the elders" and accepted it.

Mother Lin saw that Jia Lian still had a little baby face. The more she looked at it, the more she liked it. She couldn't help but rub Jia Lian's head with her hands.

Jia Minyuan.

Lin Hai walked to the door, rubbed his face, put on a slightly disappointed and guilty expression, and opened Jia Min's door.

Jia Min is teaching a little girl how to practice calligraphy.

The two of them seemed to be carved out of the same mold, with unparalleled elegance revealed from within.

It's just that the older one's brows are flamboyant. Looking at the woman with a cheerful and cheerful personality, there is a hint of sadness on her brows.

The younger one has smoky eyebrows that look like a frown but not a frown, and a pair of eyes that look like happiness but not joy. At the age of five or six, he has already seen that she will be as beautiful as her mother in the future. Maybe she is not in good health.

Growing up in a medicine jar, I feel a bit sad at a young age.

This is mother and daughter Jia Min, Lin Daiyu.

When Jia Min heard the sound at the door, her eyes shone with anticipation, but when she saw her husband's guilty look, she felt clear in her heart, and the sadness on her brows grew even more.

Daiyu felt the sadness emanating from her back, quickly put down her pen and shrank into Jia Min's arms.

"Min'er, this is the Yue family..." Lin Hai didn't know how to speak.

"Okay, needless to say, they have probably forgotten about me as a distantly married daughter." As she spoke, Jia Min's face no longer looked cheerful, and she hugged her daughter tightly and cried.

Daiyu knew that it was useless to say anything at this time, so she quietly huddled in her mother's arms and let Jia Min cry.

Lin Hai's scalp was numb, and he knew something was going wrong. A while ago, he could only sigh, "It's like this again," and then do whatever he has to do. Why is he crying now? Is it possible that he is sentimental because of his pregnancy?
p>

Now that the matter has come to this, Lin Hai decided to speed up the process.

"How could the Yue family forget about my wife? It's just that the family can't send anyone here. My uncle is a first-class general, not an imperial emissary. He has to report to the Governor's Mansion whenever he leaves the city, let alone go to Jiangnan.

My second uncle also works in the Ministry of Industry, so I can't escape from it. Brother Zhu is preparing for the spring exam and has a heavy workload.

Lian'er is too young, let alone Baoyu. Wait until next year. Next year, my job of patrolling the salt censor will be over. Then our whole family will return to Beijing together. You can stay at your parents' house for as many days as you want."

Lin Hai also persuaded Jia Min.

When she heard that she would return to Beijing next year, Jia Min stopped crying and just stared at Lin Hai pitifully with her red eyes.

"Really?"

"It's true, the Salt Patrol Censor is elected for five years. If Hu Censor, who came to replace me at the beginning of the year, had not been caught in a labor riot to demand wages and was beaten to death, we would have gone back this year. The Holy Father said, let us

I’ll work for another year and send someone to replace me next year.”

At the beginning of the year, the governor of water transportation was not a good person.

For the plow workers, if they have ten pennies, being greedy for two pennies is a blue sky, to be greedy for three pennies is ordinary, to be greedy for four pennies is to be a bad official, to be greedy for five pennies is to be unconscionable. But these years, the price of food is low, and you can barely survive.<

/p>

But if you are greedy for ten things, you will kill everyone!

On the day when work was released, the Governor's Mansion of Water Transport was slaughtered by the furious water workers. The dogs passing by were beaten into hot pots and the earthworms were cut in half vertically.

Cao Bing was left alone, because Cao Bing was also embezzled by 70%.

The unlucky Censor Hu was treated as an official of the Governor's Mansion and chopped into pieces just because he temporarily stayed in the Governor's Mansion.

Soon, the imperial court sent a new group of water transport officials. Those elder brothers who took the lead in asking for wages also knew that they would not survive, so they reached a consensus with the water transport yamen and committed suicide.

That's how it happened.

No way, a large part of the team that Taizu started his career came from the Cao Gang. After the founding of Daqi, the Cao Gang was banned, and another governor's office for water transport was set up.

Therefore, the plow workers are proud of their profession from the bottom of their hearts.

Taizu also did this!

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Taizu also missed the days of making a living in Caogang, saying that it was the most carefree time in his life, so he took great care of his own group of Caogong workers, making it increasingly difficult to manage them.
p>

But this group of people are very loyal to the Chen royal family. Whenever there is a war, tens of thousands of people will join the army, and the Chen royal family also repays their trust.

It’s just that the water transportation yamen sandwiched in the middle is getting more and more difficult.

Lin Hai was also forced to stay for one more year.

Lin Hai was numb when he saw Daiyu, whose eyes were turning red due to the influence of her mother's emotions.

No matter, after meeting Jia Lian, I can't escape the fate of being punished, so let's continue acting.

Lin Hai took mother and daughter into his arms.

"It's all because of my husband's incompetence and being looked down upon by my in-law family. I'm sorry for you and my wife!" Lin Hai also choked up.

Hearing the sound of her husband trying not to cry, Jia Min couldn't bear it anymore and started to cry loudly.

Daiyu was also affected by the atmosphere and sobbed softly.

When Lin Hai thought of his wife's methods, he couldn't help crying.

A family of three, oh no, it was a family of four, hugging each other and crying as if they had been wronged.

After crying for a long time, Lin Hai stopped crying and said to Jia Min and her daughter: "Don't cry anymore. It's already noon, and it's impossible for the Yue family to fly over. Don't keep mother waiting. Go quickly."
