Do you know: I am Xu Jiazi

Chapter 161 Zhaomei Peak’s ‘Some Gadgets’ and Arrival in Beijing [Thank you for your support, bye! 】

"Auntie, you have been out for the past few days, so my grandnephew will not delay your rest."

Listening to Xu Zaijing's words, the old lady nodded.

Minglan and the old lady went back to the bedroom together. Looking at Minglan, the old lady said, "Minglan, do you know who the gynecologist in Yangzhou is?"

Minglan frowned and thought for a moment, then shook her head and said, "Grandma, granddaughter doesn't know."

"That's the doctor Chen who your cousin Jing is looking for every day." Listening to the old lady's words, Minglan turned her eyes and said, "Grandma, my cousin is doing this for my mother-in-law. He is afraid that something might happen to my mother-in-law." Don’t you have a doctor?”

The old lady nodded and said, "How about sleeping with grandma tonight and tomorrow?"

Minglan nodded.

In the next few days,

The old lady personally sent someone to find the nanny and send her to the side courtyard. Xiaodie also returned to Wei Shuyi.

But Cui’s mother still didn’t return to Shou’antang.

Wang Ruofu, on the other hand, was busy arranging the things of the Sheng family, loading what should be shipped, selling what should be sold, and preparing to leave for Bianjing. She was busy with her heels on the back of her head every day, and she didn't care that Sheng Hong had finished attending. The farewell banquet for colleagues went to Linqi Pavilion.

Wuyi Lane

After these days of scraping the bones and treating the poison, the Bai family has been truly controlled by the Bai family.

At this time, Gu Tingye's brother and sister were playing huotou outside the room.

inside the house,

Bai looked at the account book in her hand and nodded approvingly and said to Pingmei: "Ms. Wei Yuyi Wei is a shrewd and capable woman. She has been able to take charge of her own business in such a short period of time."

Pingmei smiled and said to Mrs. Bai, "Mother-in-law, I have also heard a little bit. The stewards in our yard said that after Mrs. Wei came back from the Sheng family, she worked like a madman. She is really conscientious and can handle errands well. ! Not only did her sister give birth to a son for the Sheng family, but her family from Chuzhou also moved to Yangzhou. This way, my mother-in-law’s plan was not in vain. "

Bai Shi smiled. She was now the eldest daughter of the Marquis of Dazhou, and she was also the heir to the largest salt village in Yangzhou, or rather, the largest salt village in Dazhou.

The whole person's temperament is completely different from that of more than ten years ago.

She smiled and said: "By the way, Ping'er, I just received a letter from Yu'er."

"Ah? What did the officer say?" Pingmei asked, stunned.

Bai handed the letter in his hand to Ping Mei and said, "He said that he has completed the examination, so that we can continue to have more fun in Yangzhou."

"The official keeps telling us to go back later. I wonder what kind of medicine he is selling in this gourd!" Pingmei asked curiously, then opened the letter and read it carefully.

In fact, after Bai arrived in Yangzhou, she often received letters from Bianjing, and she almost had some idea of ​​her eldest son's plan.

"Mother-in-law, we won't be able to catch up with the officials to release the results." Pingmei said.

"Yes, but don't we bring such a big gift when we go back?" Bai said and glanced at Pingmei's belly.

Qi Yiqiu, the Duke of Qi, has a modest personality, but this time he went to Beijing to perform errands with a heavy responsibility. Princess Pingning specially hired several clerks from the Marquis of Xiangyang Mansion to follow him as advisers.

After this period of hard work and hardship, and with the cooperation of officials from the Imperial City Department and Yangzhou Yamen, the errands assigned by the emperor were finally successfully completed.

The original text of Princess Pingning's letter is: "My father is very happy to learn that he can receive an extra 700,000 yuan per year!" '

The reason why Qi Guogong hasn't left yet is because he is waiting for the newly arrived Supervisor of the Tea and Salt Department who has a good relationship with the Cao family.

After the relevant matters were handed over, Qi Yiqiu fell ill directly in Yangzhou. After all, he had been pampered since he was a child, so he had never experienced these thousands of miles of trekking.

He only fell ill at this time because he was in good health.

He couldn't ride a horse or a carriage, so he had to take a boat back to Beijing.

Xu Zaijing received a message from Zhaomeifeng before leaving Yangzhou.

Zhaomeifeng invited Xu Zaijing to have a meal at a restaurant in Yangzhou. Xu Zaijing was young, and Zhaomeifeng was injured and neither of them started drinking. Zhaomei Feng lamented that in less than three months, he had gone from being dormant to becoming a prominent figure in the Imperial City Division, the most prosperous place in the southeast of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

"Brother Jing, I don't have anything to give you when you return to Bianjing this time, just some gadgets. Don't dislike it." Zhao Meifeng said in a sincere tone.

"Let's go into battle together to kill the enemy. Brother Zhao is serious about his words."

"Brother Jing, we brothers don't talk secretly between us. I don't know if Brother Jing can let go of the 'clothes' that the Hou Mansion lent me. There are really a lot of firearms in the southeast! Don't worry, Brother Jing, this matter I haven't reported him to Bianjing yet."

"Of course you can. It's just something I figured out when I was bored. It's a good thing if it can help the court and the officials of the imperial city." Xu Zaijing said with a smile.

"Okay, on behalf of the sons of the Imperial City Division, I would like to thank Brother Jing! Your future will be limitless, so I'll give you a toast first."

After the two finished drinking, they continued to chat for a few words, and drank another drink while listening to the laughter of the celebrating tigers, scar-faced soldiers, and officials in the imperial city next door.

Then Xu Zaijing felt a little embarrassed when he returned to Sheng's house.

Because the "some gadgets" Zhaomeifeng mentioned were five cartloads of the best jade carvings from Yangzhou.

Yangzhou was the place with the most exquisite carvings in the previous dynasties. By the Zhou Dynasty, the carving techniques had improved to a higher level, and Bian Kyoto was slightly behind.

Qingyun casually took out an exquisite wooden box, opened it and looked at it for a few times before saying to Xu Zaijing: "Sir, this kind of carving is rare even in Beijing."

"Let's go and tell the palace when we get to Bianjing."

So, a group of Xu family soldiers entered the Sheng family with five carriages.

Everyone goes around in circles,

Finally, in April, I boarded a passenger ship to Bianjing at Yangzhou Pier.

When we came to Yangzhou, we went downstream, day and night, so the speed was naturally quite fast. However, when we returned to Bianjing, we went upstream. The speed all depended on the trackers and the wind, so it was naturally slower.

On the way back to Beijing, Wei Xiaoniang, who had a child, and Ping Mei, who was pregnant, were both on the two large ships in the middle of the fleet. Xu Zaijing, Xu, Gu, Bai, Sheng, Qi, and the personal guards and servants of the five families arranged shifts. Be prepared for the situation on the road.

At the bend of the river that was pulled by trackers when I went to Yangzhou before, it was already past the dry season, and there was basically no need for trackers on the downstream river.

All the trackers came to the shore going upstream.

Xu Zaijing and Gu Tingye stood on the bow of the boat again. Xu Zaijing pointed to the boy carrying the gourd on the shore and said, "I wonder if he still remembers us."

As soon as he finished speaking, the tracker's call from the shore came over. After all, it is rare to get a reward of hundreds of dollars.

After hearing the tracker's call, naturally, several families sent several baskets of copper coins ashore.

When the fleet saw the tall city walls of Bianjing and the fleet stopped at the huge dock of Dongshuimen,

It's late June and the weather is already a bit hot.

Xu Zaijing looked towards the dock, and then he waved happily!
