Chapter 112: Dressed up
Yang's sixth room entered Yizhou City, first there was a dot of Duyun Villa, and then Nianqing personally dotted it according to Yang Chen's instructions, and also added some maids and maids. Therefore, at this time, the Yang six-room team, horse team, and small team that entered Jinyuan County were clearly divided, and the team was mighty and powerful, and the banner of the Yang family was played.
Although Jinyuan County is not far from the prosperous Yizhou, it is a small border city in the end, and it is not a traffic artery, and because it is surrounded by high mountains, it is impossible for the enemy to invade from here, and militarily speaking, there is no sense of existence here. Therefore, it is not rich, and there are no ordinary business contacts, let alone dignitaries.
And most of the Wang clan in Shuzhong will not come here, so it is rare for people in Jinyuan County to be able to move their families to a county order. Now, I heard that the Yang family's six rooms were sent by the son of today to be stationed here. Almost the whole city was dispatched, and the streets were crowded with people. One is that he was once famous, and the other is that he felt that Jinyuan County was valued by the imperial court, and that it was a very glorious and festive thing, and it was worth running to congratulate.
This kind of grand occasion was not foreseen by the Yang family, Yao Ziqiu and Nian Qing. Fortunately, in order to protect the Yang family's sixth room, the two of them brought a lot of guards to protect the Yang family's six rooms, so they would not be in a hurry. As for the county government, it was extremely panicked. Previously, the county man died of illness, and the superiors wanted to send people, but everyone didn't pay much attention to it, after all, this is a poor and boring profession, and even the chance of promotion is slim.
When the county order received that the person who was dispatched was from Hongnong Yang, he was first shocked, and then thought that Prime Minister Yang Gongren had been deposed last year. I couldn't help laughing, gloating that the Yang family had fallen to the point where I needed to make a living in such a barren place, and it was enough to be downcast. So. The county magistrate also did not pay attention to this matter, let alone notify the county government to do a good job of welcoming new colleagues.
Therefore, when the people poured out of the city to welcome the Yang family, the county commander was shocked to realize that the Yang family was the Yang family after all, and it was a thousand-year-old family no matter whether it was in the court or in the opposition. It has its own atmospheric style. So he hurriedly sent people to maintain order and personally greeted the Yang convoy.
From the East Gate to the new residence in the Northland, the Yang team came in a circle. I walked for half an hour.
When Jiang Chengzi stood in front of the door to greet the Yang family's convoy, he saw the Yang family's six-room clan who had been escorted by the officials. And the first person is like his father Yang Shuyue, looking at his expression and behavior as usual, there is no stupid behavior at all. Accompanying him were A-Niang Yang Wang and his eldest son Yang Qingrang. Next to him was a man dressed in a cyan robe. A middle-aged man with a beard was walking side by side with Yang Shuyue. Yao Ziqiu and Nian Qing, who was dressed in men's clothes, rode horses to escort on both sides of the convoy.
Jiang Chengzi was stunned for a moment, and then understood that the person must be a person of no low status, otherwise he would not dare to walk side by side with Yang Shuyue.
"Ah, that's the Yun County Order. A little guy who came to sweep next to him whispered.
Only then did Jiang Chengzi understand that with Yang Chen and Duyun Villa, the six rooms of the Yang family were already in the city. In the days that followed, in this Shuzhong officialdom, even if Yang Shuyue was just a small county magistrate. No one dares to take it lightly.
She stepped forward and bent her knees at her father and brother and aunt, and said, "My daughter welcomes my father, mother, and eldest brother and sister. ”
She is welcoming her own family. But he didn't wear a formal dress, only a men's suit. In Datang, it is very popular for women to wear men's clothing. Because you don't have to wear a hat when you go out, there are more and more women in men's clothes. Therefore, everyone didn't think there was anything wrong with Jiang Chengzi in men's clothes. On the contrary, many people even think that she is heroic and sassy, as beautiful as the sun in the sky.
"Hard work for my son. A-Niang came to help her up first, for fear that others would ask something inappropriate.
She answered and said, "Ah Zhi is not hard. It's just a little tiring from riding. ”
Her expression and posture are all the coquettishness of a little girl, but she is dressed in men's clothes, clean and bright.
Everyone used to look at the Yang family, but they only felt that Master Yang Liu was gentle and elegant, Mrs. Yang Liu's manners were moderate, and the eldest daughter beside her was elegant and quiet, and she couldn't see her appearance clearly through the hat, but she was also a beauty when she looked at her figure. As for Yang Dalang, Jun is clean and elegant. Even the maid who followed behind her also had an atmosphere of her own. At this time, looking at this little daughter of the Yang family in men's clothes, I was even more surprised by the agility and splendor between the eyebrows.
Everyone suddenly felt like a hazy sky, and in an instant, the clouds broke through the sunrise, brilliant and extraordinary.
"You. Yang Wang smiled, his tone was helpless after all.
Jiang Chengzi didn't say much, only led his family to enter through the main entrance, while Xiao Jiu and Che Hu were responsible for counting the luggage and directing the people to move the luggage to the house.
"Yunxian Ling, I have admired your name for a long time, and it is a blessing to be able to see your demeanor today. Jiang Chengzi Yingying bowed to her knees, which was also hypocritical and polite.
When Yunxian Ling heard this, he smiled, straightened his beard and said to Yang Shuyue: "Brother Yang's children are all smart and polite, and they deserve to be famous families. ”
"Yunxian has won the award, and the little girl is quite stubborn. But I am ashamed to let you praise you so much. Yang Shuyue also bowed his hand. The speech and demeanor seemed to be a different person, and it was like two people when they first met at the Weeping Willow Inn.
Jiang Chengzi wondered in his heart, but his face was the coquettishness of his little daughter, and he pouted and said, "How can I ever be stubborn." ”
Yun County Ling also laughed, and then said: "True temperament, it is indeed not stubborn." ”
Then, Yang Shuyue and Yang Wang also smiled kindly. Because Jiang Chengzi is a girl, she does not need to be in the main hall with the guests and elders. She also knows that her aunt is everyone's best girl, and this kind of battle will definitely be handled easily, and she doesn't need her to be on her side. Therefore, she instructed Yunzhu to boil water and serve tea, and brought the refreshments she had brought from Yizhou City to greet the guests.
After giving the order, she took the opportunity to pull her eldest sister to the west wing to choose a room. When Yang Ruyu was in the ancestral house, she was often the target of bullying and ridicule by her brothers and sisters, Xiuhong's mother and daughter controlled the whole family, and the house she lived in before was taken away, saying that it was changed into a flower hall and let her live in the ear room. Now, her sister pulled her to choose a room, and she immediately hid her face and cried.
Jiang Chengzi stood aside, waited for her to cry for a while, and then hugged her and whispered, "Eldest sister, no one dares to bully you anymore." Everything was in the past. ”
"Uh-huh. Yang Ruyu still couldn't stop crying. Tears fell in a stream and rolled down Jiang Chengzi's neck.
"Eldest sister, now Grandpa, Auntie, and eldest brother. I, our family, will be twisted into a rope, and no one will be allowed to calculate and bully. Jiang Chengzi said slowly.
"Yes, no one will be allowed to bully. Yang Ruyu was also quite excited.
Jiang Chengzi stood on tiptoe and said while wiping Yang Ruyu's tears: "Yes." Never tolerate. But. Now that we are not firmly on our roots, we must be careful in our words and actions here. Eldest sister, remember. ”
Yang Ruyu listened. After a pause, he laughed at himself and said, "It turns out that this is what Ah Zhi said." Eldest sister remember. ”
Jiang Chengzi obviously felt that Yang Ruyu was alienated, so he also smiled. said: "The eldest sister is a very measured person. That's a lot of what I'm saying. It's just that I think we are close sisters whose blood is thicker than water, so we are so unscrupulous. Eldest sister, don't be angry with Azhi. ”
Her attitude is sincere, and Yang Ruyu is not good at continuing to be straight, after all, today's situation is much better than originally imagined. Now I can live in a big house with three entrances and three backyards and ponds, and I still have this little sister in front of me. Yang Ruyu thought about it carefully, although she was older. It seems that being a person and doing things is really not as good as the little sister.
"Between sisters, even if they are angry for a while. It doesn't go to my heart. Okay?" said Yang Ruyu with a smile.
Jiang Chengzi didn't care whether she was sincere or not, just nodded again and again, and then pulled her to choose a room. Yang Ruyu said that Azhi should choose first, and Jiang Chengzi said that the eldest and youngest were orderly, and the eldest sister had to choose first. So, Yang Ruyu chose a small hall in the west wing and a bedroom outside as a boudoir. Jiang Chengzi chose another set of the same type in the west wing, which happened to be next door to Yang Ruyu.
Two people choose a room. Jiang Chengzi pulled Yang Ruyu to look at the things that needed to be added to the house and wrote them down. Subsequently, the two came to the main hall, and the Yunxian Order had already left first. And those local squires and wealthy families who came to visit were also rejected by Xiao Jiuyi, saying that they were new arrivals, and the house had not yet been built, and after a few days, they would definitely invite you to a banquet.
The squires and the rich returned in a huff. Of course, the people who guarded the door of the Nianqing faction were also very clever, and they refused all the gifts sent by the squires and wealthy families, indicating that my lord would never accept gifts, which was not only the rule of my lord, but also the model and criterion of the Tang Dynasty officials.
When Jiang Chengzi heard Yunzhu talk about this, he said with a smile: "Then you should get closer to Nianqing and learn more." ”
"It's nature. Yun Zhu smiled, she was in Luoshui Grange before, she never thought that one day, she would be able to work in such a big house, nor did she expect that one day she would be so proud.
"That sister has to study hard. This is just the beginning, and in the future, the eldest brother will become famous, and the Yang's six rooms will spread out by themselves, which may not be worse than Hongnong's ancestral house. At that time, the family affairs will be in charge of your sister. Jiang Chengzi looked forward to the future for Yunzhu a little.
When Yunzhu heard this, she opened her mouth wide in surprise.
Jiang Chengzi was very happy and staggered around to check.
At dusk, the Yang Mansion in Jinyuan County was cleaned and rectified, and all the families, including Xiuhong's mother and son, also settled down. The maids and daughters-in-law were all personally selected by Nianqing and Yunzhu in the Yizhou labor market, and they all had official documents and signed contracts. Jiang Chengzi glanced at them one by one, and they all seemed to be reliable people, so she left them all.
At evening dinner, Yang Wang personally arranged the dishes, and the simple dishes were placed in the main hall, which was regarded as a family banquet for the family. It is not appropriate to say that it is a family banquet. Because Nian Qing and Yao Ziqiu were also invited, in addition, it was Dr. Wang. said that it was a banquet, but it did not conform to the rules of the Sui and Tang banquets, at least because of the hasty preparations, coupled with Yang Shuyue's physical discomfort, and the children were young, the regular programs of the banquet such as the wine order and the pot throwing were also canceled, simply to thank Yao Ziqiu and Nianqing for their help, as well as Dr. Wang's wonderful rejuvenation.
The feast ended, and the guests and hosts dispersed. After a busy day, Wang Yang handed over the next cleaning up work and the preparation of the sacrificial mansion at night to Yunzhu, she caught Jiang Chengzi, who wanted to slip away, and said with a serious expression: "You come with me." ”
Jiang Chengzi knew that his wife must be unhappy about her parting without telling her, and at the same time, she might have to communicate with her about something else. In the end, a lot has happened in just a few days. The situation of Yang's sixth room has also undergone earth-shaking changes.
The mother and daughter entered a side hall in the east chamber one after the other, and Yang Wang asked solemnly: "Listen to what Nianqing said, you borrowed fifty taels of gold from her son-in-law?"
"Yes. Jiang Chengzi generously admitted, and before Yang Wang could say anything, she continued, "Nianqing's son-in-law is Yang Chen's son-in-law who rescued me in Luoshui Grange, and he was ordered by the imperial court to carry out a mission in Yizhou. On that day, I happened to meet him, and we talked to each other about Grandpa's transfer here, and after coming and going, he thought that he was a member of the Yang family, and for the sake of the eldest brother's future future, he must not be looked down upon. When I listened to it, I thought it was the same thing. At that moment, he borrowed some silver money from Yang Gongzi. ”
"Ah Zhi, what's the use of such vain prosperity? Now that you have come to this poor country to be a small county, your grandfather has few children. Even if we have a hard time, what does it matter? If others want to judge, let him judge. If it's not imminent, why would I borrow money from you?" said Yang Wang very seriously.
"A-Niang, this is not vanity, this is the fixed frame of status. Jiang Chengzi emphasized. But she also agreed with Yang Wang's statement in her heart, but in the end, people are people in the red dust, and it is impossible to live a dull life without desires and desires, and it is impossible to do nothing despite having the ability to make their family live a better life.
Yang Wang's brows were full of dense clouds, his tone became more and more serious, and he said, "Ah Zhi, fifty taels of gold is not a small amount. Your grandfather's errand can't afford to pay it back. Then on the day you agreed with Yang Gongzi, what should you do, won't you lose your trust in others?"
When Jiang Chengzi heard this, he smiled and said: "Ah Niang, I have been cultivating with the immortals for a few years, my ears and eyes are clear, and I have some skills in my hands, so I can earn a few taels of silver in the end." When it comes to repaying the money, Ah Niang is not worried. This house is quite large, but there are many places that need to be repaired, and I also ask A-Niang to take charge of the house. Later, I handed over the title deed and keys to A-Niang. ”
Yang Wang sighed and said, "You have always been assertive, and A-Niang doesn't say much." ”
"A-Niang is not worried. Once upon a time, you tried your best to protect Ah Zhi. From now on, Ah Zhi will try her best to protect Ah Niang. Jiang Chengzi was a little tired, rubbed into Yang Wang's arms and leaned on, smelled her good smell, and laughed to tears. How simple is such happiness, but she has traveled a long distance and traveled through time and space to enjoy the treatment enjoyed by having a mother and children.
Yang Wang hugged Jiang Chengzi as well, patted her on the back gently, and said, "Ah Zhi, don't be reckless." For my mother, I only hope that you will be happy and happy, and be the nine girls of Yang's golden and expensive. ”
"Ah Zhi, got it. Jiang Chengzi smiled, hugged Yang Wang's arm and coquettishly for a while, before talking about building a house in the backyard, opening half an acre of land, and planting flowers and spices.
"This house is your choice. It's up to you. Yang Wang stroked Jiang Chengzi's head, and his heart was full of soft pity. Before, she had never expected this child to be able to talk so much around her knees. Every moment now seemed like a dream to her.
"Thank you, Auntie. Jiang Chengzi was crisp and coquettish.
After that, she changed the topic again and asked about Yang Shuyue's condition. (To be continued......)
