Chapter 177 The Second Room Leaves Beijing (Part [-])

The adults were talking in one place, and the children also gathered in one place.

Ling Wanyu was about to leave, and Li Xin and several sisters from the Ling family had prepared gifts for Ling Wanyu, and they brought them out at this time.What Li Xin prepared for Ling Wanyu were two handkerchiefs and some jewelry.She embroidered the handkerchief herself, and she asked Ling Ziye to help buy the jewelry.Not very expensive, but also handy.

Several sisters of the Ling family also gave various gifts, and Ling Wanyu was very happy to receive the gifts.Although Ling Wanyu would come back almost once a year, but now that she was leaving, it was necessary to prepare gifts for her.After all, when Ling Wanyu came back every year, she would also bring gifts to the Ling family's sisters, which were the specialty of Master Ling Er.

"Thank you." Ling Wanyu said with a smile.

"Thank you for what! Shouldn't it be." Li Xin patted Ling Wanyu's shoulder.

"Cousin, I heard that you are leaving too. Will we see each other again next year?" Ling Wanyu held Li Xin's hand with a look of reluctance.She really didn't expect that her cousin would leave the Ling family too.Didn't the mother also say that my cousin has no relatives, so she can only rely on the Ling family to live?

Unexpectedly, the cousin was unwilling to rely on the Ling family for a living, and wanted to leave!
In this respect, in fact, she is really envious of her cousin, who is only about the same age as her!How dare he have such courage!If she left home, she would definitely not be able to live a good life by herself!People are always like this, they don't like to see their own shortcomings in others, and they always have some envy for those who can do things they can't do.

"I can't tell what will happen next year. It's true that I'm leaving. I think I should leave at the end of the month."

Everyone talked together for a while, and everyone in the Ling family sent the second roomer out.When they arrived at the gate, the carriages were already waiting at the gate, and there were quite a few maids and servants following them, and there were still quite a few things, so it really was a large convoy.The main reason is that the space of the carriage is not large, and a carriage cannot pull too many things.

"Then mother, I took Wanyu and left. Jiaer entrusted her mother to take care of her." Mrs. Ling looked at Ling Zijia with a look of reluctance.Raising such a big child since he was a child, he has hardly left his side for so many years, and he must be reluctant to part suddenly.

However, parting is inevitable. For the sake of the future of the children, even if they are reluctant, they must be parted.

I just hope that the next meeting will not be too long apart.

"Don't worry! Jiaer stays in the capital, we will take good care of him." Mrs. Ling patted the second lady's hand.

"Okay, then I'm really leaving."

After biding farewell, Ling Zijia personally helped Mrs. Ling and Ling Wanyu into the carriage.The convoy finally moved, and then slowly disappeared from everyone's sight.

Finally, the convoy was no longer visible, and the Ling family turned back to the mansion.Mrs. Ling and Ling Wanyu left, and everyone was a little depressed.Especially Mrs. Ling and Ling Zijia felt very reluctant.

After returning to the mansion, everyone went to their own business, Ling Zijia and Ling Zihua also went out to the academy.In the future, the one who will inherit the Ling family's business will definitely be Ling Ziye, which is almost beyond doubt.Although Ling Zihua and Ling Zijia can also help, but in the end they are just helping.

As the eldest son, Ling Ziye naturally wants to inherit the family business.Therefore, Ling Zijia and Ling Zihua had to find another way.Elder Ling loved scholars wholeheartedly, and Ling Ziye wanted to inherit the family business, so no matter how well he read, he would not be able to become an official. Therefore, Elder Ling put all his hopes on Ling Zihua.

Master Ling wanted Ling Zihua to go to school, so he found a good academy in the capital and sent Ling Zihua to school.A big family like the Ling family actually has ethnology, but the ethnology is just to enlighten the children, and the master's level is not very high.The Ling family has been businessmen for generations, and almost no one in the clan goes to school. They just need to know some words, and the husband doesn't need to be too nice.

Moreover, generally being able to invite gentlemen from the clan in this way is naturally incomparable to the gentlemen from famous academies.

Ling Zijia returned to Beijing to go to school, so she went with Ling Zihua.Master Ling Er has become an official himself, so he naturally hopes that his eldest daughter can enter school.

Li Xin wanted Ling Feifei and Ling Feifei to go back to Songhe Hall with Mrs. Ling.

"Grandma, don't be unhappy. It won't take long for the second uncle's family to return to Beijing." It won't be long before officials can go to Beijing to report on their work. Regardless of whether Master Ling can return to Beijing to be a Beijing official, but the report It is always time to return to the capital.So, it won't take long, Master Ling Er's family will be back again.

"I hope you don't have to leave when you come back this time. Your second uncle has always been released. It's been so many years. In terms of seniority, official reputation, he is qualified to be transferred back to the capital. But, is the Ling family in the end?" As a businessman, the officials in the court look down on such an identity. Your uncle is unwilling to have too much contact with the officials, and there is no one who can talk to the officials, so your second uncle will never be able to Transfer back to the capital. It's hard to see the last time in a few years." Mrs. Ling sighed.External officials cannot leave their posts without permission, so in general, they cannot leave their posts casually.

"Actually, it's not easy to do anything. Loyalty and righteousness have been a dilemma since ancient times. Since the second uncle wants to be loyal to the sage, it is inevitable that he cannot be filial at home." Li Xin could only persuade Mrs. Ling, after all, she Can't help either.She couldn't do anything that was not easy for the Ling family.

Although she also knew the brothers and sisters of the Yin family, it was just that Ling Ziye was so close to him that she didn't ask for help, so it was even more impossible for her to speak up.Besides, she and Yin Liuchen knew each other because he saved her once, and the kindness of that time has not been repaid yet!Naturally, it is impossible to ask for help.

On the side of the prince, that is, a one-sided relationship, he might not help her with things!Besides, it is almost impossible for her, a woman without any rank, to meet the prince!

"You're right. Just do your best and obey the destiny!" Mrs. Ling's mood was still a little low.

Li Xin was the one who cooked the dinner, and now she was about to leave, so she cooked almost every meal in Songhetang.Ling Feifei always liked to help her, but it was just washing vegetables and so on.Li Xin really didn't dare to let Ling Feifei try chopping vegetables, it would be bad if he could cut them.

For those who have never used a kitchen knife, it is inevitable to cut their hands when they start using it.When she was learning how to cook, as a child in the countryside, if you cut your hand, cut your hand!Children who grew up in the countryside, who would not have some wounds on their bodies!Those who go up the mountain and down the river will always bump into each other.

However, Ling Feifei was different from her. If such a young lady cut her hand, the Ling family would be unhappy.

When Li Xin and Ling Feifei finished cooking and returned to the upper room, Ling Ziye was also there.

Speaking of it, the relationship between Ling Ziye and Mrs. Ling is really good, no matter how busy things are, they will always show up in Songhetang.Speaking of which, the number of appearances is much more than that of the Grand Master and Mrs. Wang.

"Cousin is back! Isn't it so busy outside?" Li Xin smiled and sat down.

"It's not as busy as it was a few days ago, it's finally better. If I keep busy, I really can't stand it." Ling Ziye smiled wryly.There is no other way to hand over the business of the family to him.There are always people who say that the Ling family is rich and envious of his good life, saying that once he is born, he won't have to worry about life for the rest of his life.

In fact, that's what people who don't understand the actual situation say.When he was born in a wealthy family, he was actually destined to take on more responsibilities than ordinary people.However, he has nothing to complain about. Now that he has enjoyed all the benefits brought by wealth, he naturally has to take responsibility.

There is never a free lunch in the world.

"Your father is the same. He knows how to dance and write all day long, and he doesn't care about the business of the family. How old is he! He can comfortably become a rich and idle person." Madam Ling complained.For the eldest son, she had had more expectations and hopes since she was a child, but she never thought that the eldest son would still fail to live up to expectations.

The family business has only been managed for a few years!How old is Ye'er that he just quit doing it!He actually carried such a big burden at home.Sometimes when I think about it, I really feel sorry for Ye'er.How old is Fan Er!It's time to do things!He even went to be his rich and idle person.

"Father's ambition is not here, everyone has his own ambition, and he can't come by force."

Everyone had dinner together again, and after dinner, they talked together.The person who picked up Ling Feifei came, Ling Feifei left first, Ling Ziye and Li Xin also retreated.

The moon is already hanging on the treetops, and the clear light spreads all over the ground.After the middle of the month, the moon slowly became not far away again.When the moon is full, it loses. After all, the moon is full for only two days, and after those two days, it becomes short again.

"The Lord Changle returned some gifts to you, and I sent someone to send them directly to Caixia Pavilion. When you go back, take a look!"

"How do you give me a gift? It can't be some kind of expensive gift, right?" Li Xin remembered the box of precious jewelry that Yin Liuchen asked Ling Ziye to send last time, and wondered what kind of gift Yin Yuling gave.If it's too expensive, it's really hard to accept it.

"I didn't look at it either. I don't know what the gift is. However, since it is a gift, whether it is valuable or not is a matter of people's wishes. Even if it is more expensive, you can keep it! Princess Changle said, That's thanks for the food you made for her." Since Li Xin made some food for Yin Yuling at the beginning, Yin Yuling has become addicted to it.

In the past few days, Ling Ziye and Li Xin have been told to get some food every day.Mrs. Ling knew about this matter, and asked Li Xin to make some simple meals for her. After all, she is the princess, and the Ling family cannot afford to be offended.Li Xin also wanted to repay Yin Liuchen's favor, so he did it every day.
