On the other side, the young man who had just delivered the money ran up to Hou Fangyu, "Master, the matter has been settled. I didn't leave until I saw his family come out and see the money bag."

Hou Fangyu felt at ease, but after thinking about it, he said, "I don't know how long it will be before I come back after leaving this time. You can send the 200 taels of silver notes to Aunt Song who runs the restaurant. In case something happens to the Shi family, let her Give them the money. I have a few taels of silver here, even if I thank her first, then tell her that I will thank her again when I return from the capital."

The boy agreed, and went quickly, and came back after a while. Hou Fangyu looked at his sister Nianfu's house from afar reluctantly, turned the horse's head, and took the boy away.

The carriages, horses and luggage of the Hou family had been prepared, and when the sun came up, the old man Hou took his grandson and set foot on the journey to Beijing.

■

With two dark circles under his eyes, Ouyang Kang, who waited until the time to get up, knocked on the door next door habitually, but heard that Nianfu had already woken up.

She's transgendered?wrong.

Reciting blessings is just because of insomnia, so I wake up early.Anyway, I can't fall asleep, so I might as well get up and work, so as not to think about that guy all the time, disturbing people's mind.

In the kitchen, Nianfu is carefully cooking another pot of soup.

I don’t know if it’s because of the effect of running these days, or the so-called essence of the sun and the moon in the early morning. In short, Nianfu, who has been trapped in a mess and can’t tell the direction, woke up early this morning and suddenly became enlightened.

She began to understand what Zhu Silin said about asking her to find her own taste.

If you want to form a distinctive and unique personal style, it is like haute couture clothing.In addition to having your own appearance, you must also have a stable standard.Even if others can copy it, but without these details, it can only be a counterfeit version, and it must not be called a genuine licensed product.

Nianfu, who had come to understand it, knew that what she needs most now is actually not the little dumb tongue, but a steelyard.

She has to accurately measure each material she uses each time, and then continuously mix and match them, and then find out the most suitable taste from them.That was her own taste.If she still needs help from the little mute, it will be after she finds out this smell.

"Then, are you still going to wish the master's house today?" Seeing that the girl was so busy and busy without looking back, Ouyang Kang felt slightly lost and faintly panicked.I'm used to running, why don't I run anymore?Is she still angry after all?

"I still have to go." Nianfu still refused to look back, and deliberately moved closer to the fire.In order to hide his slightly hot face, "I still want to buy a new scale, um... I will ask Master if I am right."

Oh, Ouyang Kang was inexplicably relieved, "Then when will you leave?"

"Just now. What about Wangcai? Take him for a run together, so as not to cause trouble at home all day long!" Actually, the girl was thinking.Multiple people, even multiple little wolf cubs.It will also be more reassuring.

But looking at the little hairball that didn't sleep well last night and was snoring at the foot of the bed, Ouyang Kang apologized and said with a smile, "It's still young, so don't bother it. I'll call Zixiao, come right away .”

Who asked you to follow?Wait for someone to run away.Only after chanting blessings did he dare to mutter in his heart to his back.But when he really came running leading the horse, she refused to look at him again.

Ashamed?Nianfu also felt a little bit.

But what to do?Every time she worked up the courage to look over there.The heartbeat would speed up unconsciously, and the face would be burning hot and flustered.

She also felt that it would look useless and awkward, but what should I do?The situation is completely out of her control!

The girl knows that this kind of feeling is no longer a day or two.

Before that, when she was writing, or earlier, so early that she couldn't even remember when it was, she quietly appeared.

But what about showing up?

This is not an era where people can fall in love freely. Even if they can fall in love, it is for the purpose of marriage.But can she and Ouyang Kang get married?

Don't say the answer, the girl knows it in her heart.

This is impossible.

Even if Ouyang Kang is not welcomed by his family, he is the son of an official after all, and he cannot intermarry with a commoner like himself.At the very least, Ouyang Jin's snobbish eye would definitely not agree.

Moreover, Ouyang Kang is currently studying with Su Cheng, and it is very likely that he will become an official in the future.At that time, no matter how well I learned from Zhu Silin, I was still just a cook, so what would I marry him with?

Thinking about it, the girl became depressed.

Reluctantly, she ran to the door of Zhu's house. For the first time, the girl realized that the distance didn't seem too far away.Are you leaving so soon?

My heart was inexplicably sour, and I suddenly thought that one day, she would still have to part with this person.He will marry another girl, and give her all his tenderness and consideration...

Ouyang Kang didn't know why, but he could feel that the girl's mood suddenly became bad.

"What's wrong?" Could it be to break up with him?Although he wanted to have this possibility, Ouyang Kang knew it was impossible intellectually.

yes.But the girl refused to admit it, and just said, "It's nothing." But the dull voice still revealed her displeasure.

There is no answer to be found, and it is the most frustrating to try to guess this charade.Ouyang Kang was a little anxious and wanted to tell her that he really didn't avoid it on purpose last night, but the door of Zhu's house suddenly opened.

Mo Yun poked his head out curiously, "Sister Mu, why didn't you come in after standing there for a long time? I've heard Zixiao's hooves."

This kid is so ignorant!Young Master Ouyang resolutely decided to put him here indefinitely, "Then I'm leaving. Hey... besides the scale, do you have anything else you want, do you want to go back and buy it together?"

This sentence, of course, is to ask for blessings.But Mo Yun took the words again ignorantly, "Eldest young master, can I trouble you to buy a chamber pot? Master Zhu's home is broken and not easy to use. It's too cold to wake up at night."

The dead boy actually asked me to buy a chamber pot?Ouyang Kang gave him a hard look, took money out of his pocket and threw it to him, "Buy it yourself!"

If he buys it, he will buy it, but why are you so angry?Mo Yun, who took the money bag, finally realized that something was wrong with his young master.What's the matter with him?Did he quarrel with Sister Mu again?

It's rare that the honest Mo Yun wants to do something smart, "Young master, don't be angry. If you offend Sister Mu, you will have nothing to eat. Hahahaha."

……

This joke is not funny at all, is it?Ouyang Kang finally left, his face contorted, full of anger.

Mo Yun thought about it and explained to Nianfu, "Sister Mu, my young master sometimes has a bad temper. He wants to offend you, so don't be angry." After thinking about it, he added the most important sentence, "Don't be angry. Don't feed him."

……

Nianfu glanced at him, also twisted his face, and entered the room.

Pingguo government office.

Hearing that the county head had gone to be a guest at Prince Jin's mansion, Mu Shaoqin didn't say much.Just let someone help him to walk in the garden. "It's finally sunny, and I'm going out to get some air."

Everyone knows that Grandpa Guo is very quiet, so the courtyard where he lives is not far away, which is a quiet bamboo forest.It's just that a lot of bamboo leaves have fallen at this time, and there is nothing to see.But the Duke of the country can't see at all, so what does it matter to him whether there is a good view?

rustle.Someone was sweeping the floor, coughing from time to time.

I listened for a while.Mu Shaoqin suddenly ordered, "Go and pass on two of the kabukis raised in our house, and ask them to sing the tune Mr. Su gave you last time. Just don't stand too close, it's just outside the bamboo forest, It’s better to listen to it from a distance.”

It's easy, but it's a bit difficult to come out with him to serve people, "Then the Duke of the country might as well go back to the room first. Can you call someone to come?"

"No need." Mu Shaoqin pointed there casually, "I heard someone sweeping the floor. Just ask him to come and stay with me."

The servants saw that the person who was sweeping the floor in the bamboo grove was a poor envoy in their yard, over 40 years old, and very honest, so they asked him to come over to take care of him, and hurried back to spread the word.

The rough envoy rarely had the opportunity to serve the Duke, and was very nervous, but the Duke asked kindly, "Your name is Ah Shun, right?"

The servant was very surprised, "The Duke actually knows Xiao's humble name?"

Mu Shaoqin smiled and said, "I heard them calling your name when I went back to sacrifice outside the city. Although I couldn't see it, my ears were fine. You coughed a little at that time, and I heard it just now. Why did you come out to work before you recovered?"

Ah Shun was really touched this time.

Because of his honesty, he has never been valued in the mansion, and he is often bullied. Even if he is sick these days, he is not allowed to ask for leave, and he has to work every day.

But most honest people would not complain, so even if he was bullied, he would still say, "Actually, the younger one is almost better, just coughing once in a while, it doesn't bother me."

Mu Shaoqin didn't ask any further questions, and just chatted with him, "Your voice seems to be a bit old, and you still need to take care of it when it's time to take care of it. By the way, how many people and how many children are in your family now? How are you doing?"

"The little one is forty-two this year. My mother is gone, but my father is still here. There is a big daughter and two sons. Thanks to the grace of the Queen Mother, we are sent to the house. Finally, we have a son." place to eat."

Mu Shaoqin nodded, "Then your wife and children also work in the mansion?"

Ah Shun said awkwardly, "My daughter-in-law is in poor health, and the children don't know how to behave well, and they don't look good, so they are all at home."

Mu Shaoqin smiled lightly, "Then you are working alone now, and it is not easy to support the whole family, right?"

Ah Shun's nose was sour from the question, and he almost burst into tears.

For big families, not all families have children who have the opportunity to work in the mansion.It's even more difficult for a rough envoy like him who doesn't know how to flatter.In the past few years, it could be said that the children in his family were still young, but in the past few years, the children have grown up, but there is still no chance.

The whole family of six, relying on his meager monthly money, could not live at all.The daughter-in-law, who is already in poor health, can only do some laundry work outside to supplement the family income, soaking in cold water all day long, coughing so much that she is about to vomit blood.There is also his sensible eldest daughter, who spends all day burying her head in stringing beads and doing needlework for others. It is a pity that she has a hunchback at a young age.The two sons also carried heavy bags outside to work as coolies, and they never suffered major or minor injuries.

These days are like soaking in bitter water, with no hope in sight.
