Chapter 25 Yangzhou (please read and recommend)

When Gu Tingye mentioned Liang Han, Xu Wenhui's expression was somewhat strange.
  This kid Liang Han has been in a miserable situation recently. His butt was beaten to pieces by his father Yongchang Bo. He is still lying on the bed recently.
  It turns out that this guy not only told Xu Wenhui and others about the news that the youngest son of the official family was seriously ill, he had also publicized it elsewhere before.
  He was found out by Uncle Yongchang.
  Uncle Yongchang was angry and frightened. He was afraid that if the officials found out about the blame, they would strike first and beat Liang Han severely.
  "Well, Rokuro is cultivating himself at home. I guess you can see him when you come back!"

Although he felt something was wrong with Xu Wenhui's expression, Gu Tingye didn't think much about it.

He nodded and said a few polite words, then walked in the direction of the Yuan family!
  After Gu Tingye left,
  Xu Qingyun looked at Gu Tingye's back, then turned around and said with some confusion:

"I have often heard that the second young master of the Gu family is unruly and unruly, but when I met him today, it seemed that was not the case. He was quite straightforward! Be polite!"

When Xu Wenhui heard this, he also looked at Gu Tingye's back. This Gu Er was indeed cheated quite a lot. Even Xu Qingyun, who was not very gossipy, had heard of his reputation!

However, how troubled the Gu family is inside is all their own business. There are so many people and bustling people on this pier that it is not convenient to go into details. Xu Wenhui said:

"Young people are bound to have youthful loyalty, and there is also a tendency to spread rumors! Okay, stop talking and get on the boat!"

……

When Gu Tingye arrived at the Yuan family,
  Yuan Wenchun and Yuan Wenshao have stopped arguing.

However, their expressions were still not very good.
  Gu Tingye was straightforward and warm-hearted. He thought the two of them had encountered some difficulties and hurriedly stepped forward and said:
  "Brothers, what happened? If you are using the top one as the bottom one, just speak up!"

Yuan Wenchun and Yuan Wenshao looked embarrassed at the same time when they heard this. Yuan Wenchun was thicker-skinned and quickly adjusted.
  He waved his hands and smiled:

"Haha, it's just a trivial matter, why bother you, Erlang! We can solve it ourselves!

By the way, Erlang, I have prepared the best private room on the ship for you. I will take you there myself later! "

Since Yuan Wenchun said so, Gu Tingye didn't think much about it. When he heard that he had reserved a good room for himself, Gu Tingye quickly thanked:

"Oh, that's it. Thank you so much, brother. In fact, Tingye is also a rough man, so he can just find a room!"

"Oh, how can that be done? Erlang and our two families are close friends, how can we treat you the same as others!"

Gu Tingye quickly thanked him again, thinking that he had to meet his elders first, so Gu Tingye said again:
  "Thank you, Brother Shi! By the way, Brother Shi, uncle Shi and aunt are here. I came a little late. I have to go and apologize to the two elders!"

"Well... this... this..." Yuan Wenchun was a little worried when Xu Wenhui made such a fuss just now, and he didn't want to rush ahead, so he pretended to look worried and looked at Yuan Wenshao:
  "It's hard to explain in one sentence. Alas, it's up to you, Erlang, to say it!"

Yuan Wenshao didn't expect that this good brother would blame the problem on him, so he was stunned for a moment. However, when he saw Gu Tingye looking over, he couldn't argue with Yuan Wenchun in front of Gu Tingye anymore, so he had to say helplessly:
  "It's like this, Erlang. In the past few days, my mother has suffered from cold and high fever, which makes it difficult for her to travel far. So this time, my eldest brother and sister-in-law will take my place!"

After Yuan Wenshao finished speaking, Yuan Wenchun immediately added:
  "Yeah, actually we don't think it's appropriate to do this, but my mother is seriously ill and there's really nothing we can do! Alas..."

Such shameless words came out of Yuan Wenchun's mouth. Yuan Wenshao almost got goosebumps. Brother, that's not what you said just now...

Yuan Wenchun was so thick-skinned that when he saw the strange look in his second brother's eyes, he didn't react at all. He still looked sad, as if he was worried about his mother's condition!
  Gu Tingye was stunned when he heard this. Uncle Yuan and his wife didn't attend the ceremony in person?
  How is this possible? At the worst, the date of the recruitment ceremony should be changed. It’s okay to wait until the illness is better before participating. How can the man’s parents not participate in the ceremony of accepting the recruitment ceremony?
  However, Gu Tingye was also a shrewd person. After thinking about it, he realized that no wonder Xu Wenhui, the young prince of the Hou family, did not go with the Yuan family just now.
  The Yuan family is clearly showing contempt for the Sheng family!
  This was not something Jishan Family could do. For a moment, Gu Tingye wanted to turn around and go find Xu Wenhui.

However, this idea was still suppressed by Gu Tingye.
  After all, the Yuan family is a good family, and this is a matter between the Yuan family and the Sheng family. It is impossible to say whether there are any other rifts between the two families.

Thinking of the purpose of going to Yangzhou, it was better not to cause any complications, so he pretended not to know and said haha:

"I see……"

Yuan Wenchun and Yuan Wenshao didn't want to talk about this topic anymore, so they talked about other topics and enthusiastically invited Gu Tingye on board!    …

Youdao is,
  The Sui Dynasty opened the river, and the Tang and Song Dynasties benefited!

The situation is similar here in the Zhou Dynasty. The previous dynasty opened the Grand Canal.

Dazhou also benefited,

The whole journey to Yangzhou can be reached directly by water.

First go to the Bianhe River, then turn into the Huaihe River at Sizhou.

Passing the Huai River to the junction of Chuzhou and the canal,

Turn to the Grand Canal and you can go directly to Yangzhou.

In addition to the necessary supplies along the way, the whole journey can be said to be able to travel non-stop for 24 hours.
  Much faster than Lu Lu,
  along the way,

Xu Wenhui always followed his own schedule and never crossed paths with the Yuan family.

Maybe because I only have Xu Wenhui as my master, there are relatively few things to do.
  In addition, there is no other cargo except soap, and the load is not high.

So the trip went much faster.

Arriving in Yangzhou two days earlier than the Yuan family,
  Yangzhou Pier,

Xu Qingshan and Chunxiang have been waiting at the pier every day for the past few days.

I was afraid of missing the time when Xu Wenhui came,
  This day, early in the morning,

Finally I saw the Xu family’s ship docking.

Both of them were very excited,
  As soon as I saw Xu Wenhui leading everyone off the boat,
  He quickly stepped forward and saluted,

After a brief exchange of greetings,

Xu Qingshan went to direct Cao to help Lux move the goods to the warehouse he had rented long ago.

Chunxiang took Xu Wenhui and others to rest in the yard prepared in advance.
  Chunxiang and Qingshan have not returned to Bianjing since they last came to Yangzhou.

The two of them had tasks assigned by Xu Wenhui respectively.

Xu Qingshan is responsible for inquiring about the affairs of salt merchants in order to prepare for Xu Wenhui's next step of selling the secret recipe of soap.
  Because of the convenience of being a woman, Chunxiang inquired about the conditions of the members of the Sheng family.
  Of course, what Xu Wenhui told Chunxiang was not that he wanted to marry a girl from the Sheng family, but that he wanted to see how his great-aunt, the old lady of the Sheng family, was doing.

However, Xu Wenhui did not ask Chunxiang about this immediately.

Instead, he walked in and looked at the entire courtyard.
  This is a five-level house. Although it is not considered a luxury house in a prosperous place like Yangzhou,
  But seeing the elegant decoration of the courtyard and the scholarly atmosphere among the pavilions, I asked:
  "Chunxiang, this yard is well chosen. It doesn't look like an ordinary house!"
