Chapter 13

With Hua Shan's words, Shi Wenbing's family began to pack their luggage and chose to follow the family members. In addition, Fu Dali and Qingde brothers had to study in government schools, so they did not follow, and left the grandfather and uncle to take care of the education.The servants of the two of them remained intact, and Sirut specially asked their nurses to take care of their daily life carefully.

The ones to be taken away are the entourage of Shi Wenbing, his wife and their two daughters. Shi Wenbing's staff for official duties is up to him to decide. The ones that Sirut needs to be busy with are those who serve at home.Shi Wenbing's servants serving Wenmo will be taken away, four of them will be taken away, and two housekeepers will be left behind; the two nuns, four second-class maids, and two first-class maids of Sirut's family will also be taken away; Shi Wenbing's aunt, Shujia's wet nurse, and teaching nanny should all be taken away, and the other two each have two eldest maids to take; Shi Wenbing's aunt, Sirut, decided to take them, so they each have a maid.

Sirut's coachman, Shi Wenbing's cook who is used to the taste, the tailor who makes clothes for the big house, and the reliable servants who need to be in charge... There are about [-] servants at present. The result after simplification.There are several families among them. Aunt Wu who is a needleworker and Wu Da, a coachman, are a couple. They have children, so they let their son stay in Beijing to serve the young master. The youngest daughter is only seven years old, so they take them away together.all kinds.

For Shujia who has been growing up in this family and whose knowledge of the family's living conditions before time travel came from "Dream of Red Mansions", this is still very simple. Don't you see that Jia Baoyu used a dozen or twenty A girl serving him is not counted as washing, cooking, and making clothes for him to accompany him when he goes out.

If you want to judge the rise and fall of a family, you don't look at how rich you are, how much you pay attention to ostentation, or how powerful a master is if you order dozens of servants, and it doesn't mean that your maid is more expensive than ordinary girls. 'It's superior to others.The real aura lies in whether the master has the ability to command the overall situation, whether the slave is stealing, cheating or forbidding, and whether he will poke and move or not.Thirty or so servants, living separately in different parts of the mansion, packed up their things without the slightest panic.It seemed that he was a little anxious, and he didn't feel like a headless chicken was bumping around at all.When I packed up the things, basically there was no bump or damage, and no one was found to be stolen.

Sirut's here, take the clothes and beddings you want to take away, some jewelry, etc., and the large antiques and the rest of the softness are bookmarked and sealed one by one.Sirut is a dignified countess, and the shape of her car is strictly regulated. It is inconvenient to do it when she arrives in Hangzhou, and she seems to have to take it with her.There is also a set of ceremonial guards that Shi Wenbing configured according to the earl, which will also be taken away, and Shi Wenbing will be the deputy governor, and there will be a set of ceremonial guards.They were all set up to support the scene when they arrived in Hangzhou, so they were taken away together.

Shujia doesn’t know about other people’s things. Among her own things, clothes, accessories (you don’t have any complicated jewelry at a young age, mainly necklaces, longevity locks, small bracelets), and daily things are handled by the mothers. Hand it over to Sirut and pack it after nodding.Her own request was to bring a few books, pens and inkstones, etc. that she usually learns. Sirut thought for a while: "That's fine. Mr. Jiang, you, Ama, will talk to him later. Go south with one or stay. No matter whether he stays or not, you will continue to study when you arrive in Hangzhou. It’s not bad to review it. I don’t know whether to hire another teacher. I’m afraid it will be difficult to hire a man who understands Mandarin when we arrive in Hangzhou...” Completely Talked to himself.

Shi Wenbing took the time to meet with Mr. Jiang. This is his daughter's cultural teacher, not his son's husband, so the importance is slightly lowered.After the conversation, Shi Wenbing also found out Mr. Jiang's character.Generally speaking, he is not a villain. Maybe he came to teach at home for a little bit of an attempt to take advantage of the situation, but he did a good job at his job. He read the homework of his two daughters, and tested their endorsement and understanding. The teacher's teaching is not bad, especially since he is also proficient in Manchu, which is quite rare.

When Shi Wenbing mentioned Mr. Jiang's future plans, Mr. Jiang said: "The Meng family thinks highly of it, and the students want to continue to eat this bowl of rice." He smiled a little embarrassedly, "Jiangsu and Zhejiang have been a place of prosperous literary style since ancient times. It will be of great benefit for students to go and broaden their horizons in the future.” Just like you go to school in the southeast coast, and then take the college entrance examination with Tibetan students, the reason for the quality of teaching.

The imperial examinations these days are said to be national examinations, but they are not admitted according to the same standard.Since Zhu Yuanzhang set the eight-legged selection of scholars, in order to balance the education level of the north and the south, so that the imperial court selected candidates to achieve a balance without geographical dominance, they were divided into the southern list, the northern list, and the middle list near his hometown of Fengyang.In the Qing Dynasty, the middle list disappeared, but the habit of allocating places according to regions remained.It’s similar to how each province enrolls students according to quotas. If your fate is not good, you were born in the wrong place. If you fill in the wrong file again and get 600 points, you will still go to the second-rate pheasant school. If you are lucky, you will be born at the feet of the emperor, and you can go there with 500 points. Entered the Peking University Hall.Therefore, the best model is to settle in a place where it is easy to pass the exam and study in a place where competition is fierce. This kind of confidence will rise several levels.

Shi Wenbing nodded in understanding, and asked again: "Sir, is your home settled?" Mr. Jiang hurriedly said: "Everything is ready, the holy grace is great, and the house that was damaged by the earthquake in the past year has been rewarded with silver repairs. The repairs given by the mansion are enough to support it. The family business is over." Shi Wenbing said with a smile: "Since that's the case, I'm relieved." He also formally assigned the servant who served Mr. Jiang when he came to the mansion to teach as a book boy, and sent another servant to take care of the daily life.

It's troublesome to say, but it only took two days after all these were packed, which also included arranging the boat.Well, they took the water route this time, not the land route at all. The Grand Canal opened by Yang Guang is useless!The space of the boat is also large, and it can carry more things than the carriage, and there is no need to bother to take care of the horse.Uh, it seems that Shi Wenbing and his party who also need to take care of horses also brought several horses, including his beloved mount, the horse used by Sirut's cart, and so on.

The imperial decree was issued in March, and it was passed from Shengjing all the way to Zhili. Shi Wenbing accepted the decree, completed the delivery in Zhili, and then returned to Beijing.When you arrive in Beijing, you have to go to the relevant department (mysterious department that Shujia doesn't know) to file for the record and get a new seal and official document.This is business.Then when I return home, I have to say goodbye to relatives and friends, pack my luggage, and discuss things with my father, brother, and wife.By the time I got up, it was already early April.

Ask: "Emiang, shall we go by boat?" Sirut replied: "Take the canal, and you will arrive there without worrying." At that time, Shujia naturally recalled this passage in her mind. Word.

Early in the morning, Shi Wenbing took his wife and daughter to bid farewell to Huashan, spread out the prayer mat on the ground, and kowtowed.After the masters finished kowtowing, the servants kowtowed outside the threshold. The two leading managers, Zhang Lu and Fu Hai, knelt in the porch, and the rest knelt in the courtyard separately.Hua Shan said: "I have told you everything that should be said, and I will not say anything. Be careful, and deliver my letter to your fourth uncle." Shi Wenbing agreed, and turned around and kowtowed three times. Busy took her daughter and knelt down too.

Brothers Fu Dali and Qingde had already asked for leave from the school, and they were there at this time.The two brothers knelt together and asked: "Ama, let my son take you, Erniang and younger sister to Tongzhou." Hua Shan said: "Let's go together." Shi Wenbing took his wife and children and took the servants' luggage to the post.

The Shi family boarded the ship at Tongzhou Wharf, and Shi Wenzhuo took half a day off to see off his brother and sister-in-law in person.Several vehicles were used, and Sirut's carriage contained herself and her two daughters. When they arrived at the ground, the horses were unloaded and the luggage was loaded, the cars were loaded, and the people were loaded.The maids and women sat in four other cars with their own small baggage, and another four cars loaded with luggage and bedding, and the cars were escorted by male servants.In fact, the servants and servants also followed the chariots and horses on foot.

Brother Shi Wenbing rode with Fu Dali and Qingde. It is said that Shi Wenbing is a third-class uncle. According to regulations, he has a complete set of rituals: four golden sticks, one apricot umbrella, two large and small green fans, and ten flag spears. .All the way to Tongzhou smoothly.Before boarding the boat, Shi Wenbing was still saying to Shi Wenzhuo: "I'm going south, my father is getting older, and your nephew is still young, so I'll leave it to you." Son, besides Ama's nephew, who else can I discuss with?"

Shi Wenbing lowered his head and pondered for a while: "Your nephews are not very sensible, and you are flattering them. I thought, if there is a big event in the family, it's just that Ahma refuses to go to Yongxing, and the ministers or ministers who discuss politics plan to impose punishment. Ah There is no defeat in the Ma army, so the master and son may not be really angry. There is nothing worth worrying about. If there is something to do, I will go to Yujun Wangfu. Over the years, although I have not been very close, I have not broken contact Yes." Shi Wenzhuo wrote it down carefully.

Shi Wenbing said again: "Brother Wenying from the fourth uncle's family is now driving to Shengjing. When he comes back, we can discuss more things." Shi Wenzhuo grinned: "Yes."

Fu Dali and Qingde's eyes were red. Originally, the damned San Francisco didn't make their children face to face with their fathers and grandparents. It's been eight years!As for children who are growing up, their memories of childhood are all blurred.For the soldiers of the Eight Banners fighting on the front line, the propaganda of the capital is still very tall. The image of their father and grandfather in their hearts is very tall. The image of Gao Daquan made it impossible for them not to be proud of their father.

Originally, Shi Wenbing was in Zhili, which was very close, and the two brothers wanted to follow him to practice. Fortunately, Master Kang kicked him away and slid along the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal for more than 4000 miles.The feelings of admiration overflowed in their hearts, and they couldn't help but feel sad.

Shi Wenbing didn't reprimand their boys for not flicking their tears, but said: "Wipe the tears away first when you go home, don't let your Mafa see it." When they grow up, they will look like adults. The grandfather in the family is old, and they are young men. They have to help their uncle take care of the family and so on.He boasted, praised and made demands, making the two brothers docile.

Shi Wenzhuo saw the opportunity, and said softly: "Brother, it's time to start." Fu Dali and Qingde bid farewell to Sirut again. Last night, the mother and son cried bitterly, and Sirut cried. It was especially severe, and now the eyes are still red.Fu Dali reluctantly said: "Emiang, don't worry, we are at home, but Ama Erniang is the guest." Qingde pursed his lips tightly, as if he could hold back his tears.Shuxian Shujia also felt sour in her heart, she watched silently and did not speak.Fu Dali held back and said to his two younger sisters: "Be obedient." Seeing that the two nodded, they stepped back and stood aside.

The scale of the Shi family's trip was not small, and they used three large ships.The first ship was Shi Wenbing's official ship, which carried him, his staff and servants, and guards. Mr. Jiang also took the two servants assigned to him on this ship.The boat in the middle was Sirut with his daughter and maids, and Shi Wenbing sent Zhang Lu, one of the accompanying housekeepers, with four male servants to escort the boat.In fact, there were no people living in the last one, only the people who escorted the boat, mainly to store horses, and also looked at Sirut’s carriage and other bulky and bulky luggage.

The big boat gradually went away, until it was out of sight, Shi Wenzhuo took his nephews back.
