451 Farewell
Uncle Chen also wanted to say "it's hard work" to Xu Erlang himself, but Xu Erlang will go south tomorrow and will definitely go to the palace to say goodbye today.
This is also what Emperor Yunwen meant. The emperor was obviously very concerned about Xu Erlang's going south, so yesterday he sent a message to Xu Erlang to leave early. Jinniang guessed that Emperor Yunwen should have any advice. If not, the monarch and minister would also discuss the situation in the south. So it is really hard to say when Xu Erlang will come back.
Xu Erlang didn't know when he would return, but fortunately, Xu's father and mother came over in time again.
Father Xu looked at Uncle Chen, and his eyes were filled with sighs and emotion.
Xu's father felt that it was already a very bad thing for him to marry an "old fairy". He didn't expect that there was a man in the world who was even more miserable than him.
Look at the troublesome things in the Chen Mansion these two days, what is this called?
When the wife of the family sent monthly rules to her parents' brothers without telling her family's head, she won't say that, but you can just give some at your discretion, but the share rose directly to 500 taels per month. In just a few years, the Chen Mansion had 50,000 taels of silver.
Is this Thoma still a wife? This is a thief!
It would have been a kindness and righteousness that he would not send someone to the official position. As a result, Uncle Chen, a good man, pretended to be nothing and did not even give him any punishment. For a moment, Xu's father couldn't help but sigh that he was unreliable enough, but he didn't expect Uncle Chen to be even more unreliable than him.
My heart was full of twists and turns, but my father Xu did not show it on his face, and he treated Uncle Chen enthusiastically as usual.
Xu’s father and Xu’s mother already knew the purpose of Uncle Chen’s mansion last time, because Aunt Chen withdrew Jinniang’s dowry. How to say this? That’s really a lot of words.
Anyway, the more Xu's father looked at Uncle Chen, the more he felt that Uncle Chen was pitiful.
To be honest, it would be quite tragic for a man to get to Uncle Chen's position.
As for Uncle Chen’s purpose today, Xu’s father also knew a little. After all, when he came back from outside yesterday, he happened to meet his two grandsons who returned from the Chen Mansion.
Xu Erlang arranged the future for the son-in-law and grandson of the Chen family, but Xu's father didn't care. However, Xu Erlang also arranged a good business for Uncle Chen, which made Xu's father unable to sit still.
However, when I thought about it, Uncle Chen was also sad. In order to "pay the debt" for his wife, he paid 8,000 taels of silver and distributed it to his grandchildren. Xu's father suppressed his jealousy and decided not to be as knowledgeable as Uncle Shen.
After all, Uncle Chen is already miserable enough. He has to make some happy events for his mansion to make bad luck, otherwise how can he live this life?
When Xu's father and mother were entertaining Uncle Chen, Lin's father brought the family and the young.
Jinniang originally planned to go to Lin's house to say goodbye to her father and aunt Shen today, but no one expected that Emperor Yunwen would suddenly summon Xu Erlang to the palace.
The plan could not keep up with the changes, so Jinniang sent someone to send a letter to Lin Mansion last night, asking them not to wait for them today and to meet again on the same day as they head south.
Clinking, father Lin was thinking about his daughter. He took Aunt Chen, Xuanxuan and Ke Ke to the door together.
The mansion became lively, and several children came to pay tribute to their elders. Later, they were naturally inevitably asked about the things they could clean up, and they all answered appropriately.
What is surprising is that Chang'an also has to go south.
When Lin’s father and Uncle Shen heard about this, they were a little shocked, “School of Yingtian Academy will be opened in the past two days. Why do you still have to go to the south of Chang’an?”
Before Chang'an could answer, Xu's father flattered his mouth and said unhappily, "Isn't Erlang thinking about it? He felt that Chang'an was not young anymore and had not made any progress in staying in the capital all day, so he asked the child to follow him to the south to gain a better understanding."
In other words, let Chang'an go to the south to study for a while.
Then this is a good thing.
Lin’s father said, “It’s better to travel thousands of miles than reading thousands of books. It’s appropriate to walk more and take a look.”
Xu's father was not happy, "Chang'an Changping has been running to Liaodong a lot in recent years."
"How can the academic style of Liaodong be compared with Jiangnan?" Lin's father had a say. "In-laws, look at the imperial examinations that have been held every three years since the founding of the country. Jiangnan alone accounts for more than 70% of the Jinshi in Jiangnan alone. Jiangnan has a strong academic style, which has been recognized since ancient times. Chang'an is outstanding in learning and has some reputation in Yingtian Academy, but who knows what level he is at? It is difficult to raise children's arrogance and make him a frog in the well. In my opinion, Chang'an has a long experience in Jiangnan. In this way, it is really good to meet some fellow people and make knowledge improve in discussions."
The unhappy expression on Xu's father's face became even stronger. Why didn't Lin's father know that it was Xu's father's unhappy grandson going south.
But the fact is just as Lin’s father said, all the talents in the world are in Jiangnan. Chang’an is outstanding in Yingtian Academy, but it may not be possible to go to Jiangnan. Children have their own arrogance. After all, they have passed the juren at a young age and do have the capital to be arrogant. But I think they will go more steadily in the future, and Chang’an will have to receive some setback education.
According to Lin’s father, it would be better to let Chang’an go to Jiangnan to see the talented and talented people there. After all, a sixteen-year-old juren is rare in the capital, and it is not so rare in Jiangnan.
Lin's father advised him a few more tactful words. No matter how much Xu's father was unhappy, he would not be able to vent his feelings in front of his in-laws, so he didn't say much in the end.
Chang'an listened to the elders with a smile, but did not interrupt.
In fact, this time he went to Jiangnan, he took the initiative to ask his second uncle to go there.
One of the purposes of visiting Jiangnan is the student who is a student who is a student who is a student who is very interested in visiting Jiangnan. However, the second purpose is that he knows that the second uncle will never be stable on the road.
This is not the same as when the second uncle went to Liaodong earlier. At that time, the second uncle was just a fourth-rank tutor. He had no earth-shaking achievements, so naturally no one would take him seriously, and no one would deliberately assassinate him on the road.
But this time it's different.
This time, my second uncle went to Jiangnan, and went to Jiangnan for the aristocratic families.
It is said that taking money is like killing a parent. The second uncle is not as simple as robbing money. If he cut off his ancestors' foundation, no one can let him pass it well, right?
Uncle II knew this, otherwise he wouldn't have been so confused.
But no matter how many tricks you have, they will be ineffective when facing absolute force.
He was worried that there were too many ambushings on the road, and that his second uncle would be less than two aunts and several younger siblings if he had any omissions. So he thought about it and decided to go there in person.
He was worried if he didn't watch his second uncle and the others reach Jiangnan safely. He couldn't stand it day and night if he didn't watch his second uncle gain a foothold in Jiangnan.
So this time he went to Jiangnan to make a reservation.
Chang'an also wanted to follow him to run errands and make a move for his second uncle.
Although he is not as good as Mohe and Yuhe, he may have better results when he comes to some things.
Chang'an made up his mind, but these considerations were difficult to tell his grandparents. Otherwise, the two elders would have to worry about their uncles and aunts, and just in case, they would definitely not agree to him go south.
After all, eggs cannot be placed in the same basket, otherwise they will be taken away by others and it will be too late to regret it.
Chang'an happily took a few younger brothers and sisters out of the flower hall. He patted Changle on the shoulder and said, "Go and do your business."
Changle was full of medicine. It was obvious that he had made medicine in the pharmacy before.
These days she has made a lot of pills. As long as they are some of the pills on the world, they not only stop bleeding and remove blood stasis, strengthen the spleen and replenish qi, protect the palace and nourish the palace, but they are not available on the market. Changle has made many things that are used to save lives at critical moments.
Hundreds of bottles of various pills have been prepared, which is far enough. But for some reason, the closer the days to the south, the more frightened Changle feels. This feeling prompted her to stop and just want to make more things to save her life. Otherwise, she had a premonition that the journey would be more difficult.
As a result, Changle struggled several times and made many drugs, and even used them unexpectedly. The drugs.
Of course, she told her second uncle about the drug or the drug. In advance, she also got her second uncle's consent. With the help of her, she gathered many poisons.
Now Changle is still in a hurry to go back, so he makes more powder for the two aunts, brothers and sisters to defeat the enemy by chance, so he is very busy. After getting his brother's consent, he pulled Xiaoyuer and Changqi back to the yard without stopping.
Xiao Yuer and Changqi also stopped their homework and worked hard with Changle these days.
Because she was in a hurry, Changle didn't want outsiders to know what she was doing, so she could only instruct two personal maids and two sisters.
Xiao Yuer was helpless about this. She obviously had no talent in medical skills, but in recent years she had been "tought" by her sister, she would prescribe her prescriptions for her to treat the cold. And in the past few days she helped her sister to rub pills, she felt that her medical skills had improved and she could now be a half-baked doctor.
She is also amazing.
As for Changqi, the little girl is very interested in medical skills. Of course, she is just interested. She can't do it if she gives up martial arts and transfers to medical skills.
However, Changqi was extremely obsessed with human acupoints. It was because Changle used teaching her human acupoints as a "threat" that the little girl would willingly use her brute force to help her sister deal with some difficult medicinal materials.
The three sisters left, and Chang'an also took Brother Rong and Changzhou Changhui back to the yard.
Brother Rong is no better than Changzhou and Changhui. He is still at ignorant of his own age and is worried about his own homework every day. Brother Rong has been entrusted as an adult to value it, so he knows the dangers that will occur on the road to the south.
My father arranged ten groups of people to confuse the situation. These people seemed to have a lot of people, but you should know that they had more enemies and more assassins sent by the enemy.
This time I went south, I was careless and the consequences were unimaginable.
Changzhou and Changhui quickly ran away, and Brother Rong said to Chang'an, "Brother, if you go to Jiangnan again in two years, it might be better."
Chang'an couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips, "Why, is it bad for me to go there now?"
"Brother, you know what I mean."
"It is precisely because I know that I have to accompany you south. It's enough to have Changping at home. Even if my elder brother stays at home, he has to live a nervous life every day. In this way, it's better to accompany you. I really have something to do on the road, maybe I can still come in handy."
Brother Rong lowered his head and stopped talking.
Chang'an patted his shoulder, "Have you said goodbye to those friends?"
Chang'an nodded.
Since his father's official position was confirmed, he was ready to go south.
He was young, and the key was that the humanistic style in the south was indeed stronger than that in the capital. In addition, his mother also told him earlier that going to Yingtian Academy should be just a "borrowing study". After that, wherever his father was in office, he would arrange for him to study in the nearby academy of the prefecture. So he was always ready to transfer. After his father became the governor, several friends came to the mansion to congratulate him, he briefly mentioned this matter to them.
A few days ago, he even invited them to the restaurant to farewell.
The two brothers went to the yard as they spoke, and then they went to work hard.
They also have some books they often read, which they need to take to the boat. In addition, there are some more precious things given by elders, which are not easy to use by their servants to clean up, and they also need to collect them in person.
Xu Erlang returned after lunch in the palace. At that time, Lin's father, Uncle Shen and others were about to leave. He happened to come back, and the few people stayed to sit for a while.
Uncle Shen was grateful to Xu Erlang for his help. Xu Erlang naturally would not take credit. He only said that they were all relatives, and he happened to have the extra effort, so it was appropriate to help him a little.
Wu Pingxun was also grateful to Xu Erlang, so Xu Erlang mentioned him a few words, "I went to Jingzhao Yin Yamen, listen more, watch more, and say less. I arranged for someone to take care of you, but I won't show up at any time. You can climb up with your own abilities. Jingzhao Yin Yamen is a good place. Many officials from the Ministry of War and Dali Temple came out here. You should carefully think about how to go afterwards."
Wu Pingxun was taught, and because of these words, his earlier excitement faded away and his face became thoughtful.
Xu Erlang looked at Shen Qiubai in front of him again, "Scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, businessmen are low, whether the Shen family can change their families is a heavy responsibility."
Shen Qiubai also respectfully responded that at that moment, the boy's back was straight and he finally felt the responsibility to take on the heavy responsibility of Shen's prosperity.
Xu Erlang also cared about the bodies of several elderly people, so that they could pay more attention to it and not take it lightly.
He and Jinniang went to Jiangnan here, a little far away from them, and they didn't know when the date of return was. They were healthy and worry-free, they would have less worries, and they would be more focused on doing things, striving to return to Beijing as soon as possible.
Regarding these reminders, Lin's father and Uncle Shen naturally responded to each other.
Lin's father said, "Your aunt and I are in good health and will take care of our care in the future. I also want to watch you go back to Beijing and see my grandchildren get married."
Uncle Shen also said, "Uncle can't help you, but he won't cause trouble for you. You can stay in Jiangnan well. If you need anything, write a letter. My uncle has purchased everything in the capital and ask someone to send it to you."
Even Aunt Shen gave them some advice and reassurance, and the care was mixed with uncovered worries, which made people feel sad.
These elders sighed and were particularly concerned about their safety. Compared with Xu's father and Xu's mother who were sitting idle, their attitudes were a little deserted and a little embarrassed.
Chapter completed!
