Brother Zheng was very excited when he went out for the first time, and immediately opened the curtain and looked outside when he left the capital. From time to time, the brick asked Yueyao about the scenery outside

Yueyao took the trouble to explain to Brother Zheng one by one.

Tingli rode a horse and did not sit in a sedan chair. Before Emperor Yingzong, the Great Yuan Dynasty emphasized literature over military force, and at that time, military attachés of the same level had to salute in front of civil officials. However, after Emperor Yingzong's reform, civil and military affairs belonged to two categories and did not interfere with each other. Military attachés will no longer be restrained by civilian officials, and there is no such thing as a civilian official of the same rank in the previous dynasty having a higher status than a military attaché. However, now that Emperor Yingzong has been dead for more than 50 years, and these decades are the time of peace, the military attaché has nothing to do, and the civil officials are tirelessly persuading the emperor to cut military spending, which is simply to reduce the army. In essence, he wanted to suppress the military attache and restore the glory of the past. The military attache was naturally unwilling, so the civil and military forces fought fiercely in the court.

Ting Li listened to Yue Yao explain to Ting Zheng for most of the day, but there was no impatience on his face, but he admired it, and said with a smile: "Third sister, I have always heard from the people in the mansion that you are very patient. Today, the eldest brother really saw it. "I heard before that Brother Zheng can teach ten words a day and three girls, he thought it was an exaggeration, but today he knows that this is true, and it is definitely not a rumor.

Tingli is a pity, if Yueyao is a man, he will definitely be a very good gentleman in the future. It's a pity, it's a pity that this body is talented; Otherwise, he has a helper.

Tingli as a family; One; Root; Read, the heir of the novel yb+du, the education he received since childhood is the first task of the family. So he also hopes that his family can cultivate a few more talented people, but unfortunately their generation has cut off the glory of their ancestors. Originally, my uncle had a bright future, but he died early. Although my father was admitted to the Jinshi, he was very backward in the ranking, and the fate of the family in the future is worrying

The heirs of the eldest grandfather's family are no longer on the official path, and they only have him and Tingyi in this room. Tingyi is playful, and his mind is not all on his career. The Lianjia still depends on him. Father's agreement to let him send Yueyao to his hometown has another meaning, that is, to have a good relationship with his family. Otherwise, they will have no backup.

Yueyao's great-grandfather Lian Cheng had a conflict with his family back then, and he made a fierce fuss, and in a fit of anger, he broke off the relationship with his family and set up his own family tree. Later, when Lian Cheng was old, he thought that Qi County was always his roots, so he bought a large piece of land in Qi County. After Lian Cheng's death, Yueyao's grandfather restored his relationship with the Qi County family. But the genealogy has been set up separately, and it has been divided from the family, and the two families already belong to two branches, and the people of the family reject them, even if they have the intention to ease the relationship, they are very rusty.

Although the prestige of the Lian family is not as good as before, there are still several outstanding figures in the family, one is the current governor of Suzhou, and he is an official position from the second grade; One was appointed as an envoy in Sichuan, and he was in the position of three products; They are all people with real power. Their house is now incomparable to their own family.

Yue Yao smiled: "Brother Zheng is slow to learn things, so I'll be more detailed." "Compared to the beginning, Ting Zheng is now more than ten times better. Mr. Zhu is really a good gentleman, with good character and patience, which is also the luck of their sister and brother.

Tingli listened and smiled: "My sister plans to stay in her hometown for a few days this time?" There is a wedding banquet on the 26th of the Ma family, is my sister going to come back before. ”

Yue Yao smiled and shook her head: "Listen to the arrangement of the eldest brother, the eldest brother will go back whenever he says." I'm keeping filial piety, and I have to avoid the wedding banquet at my uncle's house. "She definitely won't go to the wedding banquet, and she didn't deliberately block the bride. Yueyao planned to go over and meet her future cousin-in-law after the bride returned to the door.

Tingli nodded: "Okay." "It's only the 7th today, and I will definitely be able to return to the capital before the 26th. However, the plan can't catch up with the change, so let's talk to Yueyao first.

One of the servants who followed him was very familiar with the journey of this generation, and in the evening brought them to one of the best inns in town. Although they brought their daughters, Yueyao was only nine years old now, so they didn't need to go out of their way to bring the courtyard wing. Tingli directly chartered three first-class wings on the second floor, and asked for a few bungalows.

After a long day of bumping, the meal was delivered to the side room after freshening up. Yue Yao took a bite and frowned, this meal was too greasy.

The dishes cooked by the cook in Yueyao's courtyard are very delicate and have a difficult taste. After half a year of Yueyao's pickiness, the chef's skills are now quite good.

Jiangnan cuisine pays attention to color, flavor, and exquisiteness, and Yueyao eats it for half a year and then eats it in her mouth. She is not used to eating these greasy dishes in the capital.

Mother Deng said on the side: "Girl, that's the way it is when you go out, the girl bears with it." "Outside meals where there is a home comfort.

Yueyao smiled: "I know, I won't be picky." "It's a conditioned reflex just now, even if it's greasy, she'll still eat, and she'll be full. It's shameful to waste food.

After dinner, Yue Yao accompanied Ting Zheng to talk and began to practice calligraphy again, and Ting Zheng followed her to practice calligraphy on the side. At the point, Yueyao stopped practicing calligraphy and began to read, and what she was reading was still the historical record.

Tingzheng was tired and beat Hacha. Yue Yao smiled and touched Tingzheng's forehead: "Go to sleep!" "Although I didn't get to the point, I didn't want my brother to work too hard.

After Ting Zheng returned to the room, Yue Yao saw that it was still early and began to copy the scriptures again. Yue Yao thought that after burning these scriptures, she would not bury her head in the scriptures in the future.

There was a knock on the door outside.

Mother Deng was a little nervous, who would knock on the door on such a big night. Mother Deng raised her voice and shouted: "Who? "Although it is a peaceful period now, Mother Deng can't be unprepared when she goes out.

Tingli replied, "It's me." ”

After coming in, Tingli smiled and said to the confused Yueyao: "I saw that the third sister was still lit in the house, so I came over to ask, why is there no one in my sister at such a late hour?" Tingli had just dared to finish reading the book, and heard the little guy next to him say that Yueyao's room had not turned off the lights yet.

Yue Yao smiled: "Big brother, please take a seat." I'm copying the scriptures, and I'm going to go to sleep when I'm going to copy them again! ”

Tingli was very surprised: "Still copying scriptures so late?" When he saw a few circles of scriptures copied by Yue Yao, he nodded slightly, it seems that the rumors are true, and the third sister is too pious.

Before leaving, Tingli said: "Don't copy it, hurry up and sleep, I have to hurry tomorrow." ”

Yueyao copied the scriptures, which was also regarded as practicing calligraphy. After Tingli left, let Deng's mother clean up, and she washed up and fell asleep.

Yueyao slept in a daze, and suddenly heard a lot of commotion outside. Yue Yao opened her eyes openly, picked up her clothes and prepared to put them on. As he wore it, he shouted, "Mom, what's wrong?" Is it out of the water? "Yueyao is not worried about bandits or anything, if there is great rule today, the people have enough food and clothing, and the law and order are also excellent. Yueyao was just worried about going out of the water.

Mother Deng asked Hua Bud to accompany Yueyao, and she went out to inquire what was going on. Yueyao thought for a while and said, "Mom, just take a look outside, if we go to the water, we have to think about leaving quickly." It turned out that Yue Yao thought too much.

Yueyao frowned: "Mom, go and ask the eldest brother what's going on?" "Because the road is not far, and the security of this generation is also excellent, I only brought eight followers this time. If there was any accident, Yueyao was very worried.

Yueyao listened to the noise outside slowly disappearing, a little strange. After a while, Mother Deng came back, her face was very strange: "Girl, the noise just now was that the people from the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion were looking for their third young master." said that the third young master ran away from home and stayed in this inn early, but unfortunately the room was empty when he went. Then he hurriedly went out to look for it. ”

Yue Yao didn't dare to be interested in the third young master of the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion: "If you are looking for someone, you will find someone, why do you make such a big noise?" "Looking for someone should also be low-key, and I don't want to think about those who are still sleeping in the middle of the night.

Hua Bud pouted: "Those people are just from the Hou Mansion, it's really arrogant." ”

Mother Deng shook her head: "Girl, I heard that the people from the Hou Mansion came to find it, and the third young master jumped from the window and escaped." Stay in this house and do what you want to do. ”

Bud was a little surprised: "Running away from home? ”

Mother Deng was about to speak, but Yue Yao shook her head to stop the two from continuing to gossip: "Don't worry so much about other people's affairs. Mom, what does the eldest brother say? ”

Mother Deng shook her head and said, "The eldest young master said that he went with the people of the Hou Mansion, and it has nothing to do with us." Speaking of which, he also wondered why these three sons would run away from home! Even the people in the mansion have to hide.

Early the next morning, the group had breakfast and went on the road. On the way, I came across a group of people who were riding horses and rushing back. Fortunately, there are no people on the avenue, otherwise they would definitely have to step on people.

Hua Bud looked at the group of people and muttered: "These people really have no royal law, and the people in the government don't care." "If you really hit someone, you have to be crippled if you don't die.

Yueyao didn't care: "Let them go!" "She has never cared about other people's affairs. There must be something to rely on when people are arrogant, and this world is so unfair.

After walking for most of the day, I came to a small town, and the entourage said that there was a noodle restaurant in this town. It is said that eating the noodles inside will make you have an endless aftertaste, and you will decide to go again next time you pass by. But when she entered the noodle restaurant and went upstairs, Mother Deng frowned as she looked at the oil-stained tables. At this level, it's still the best.

Yueyao and Tingzheng's noodles are still frequent, and two eggs and vegetables are put in them. Yue Yao took a bite and spit out: "Tingzheng, you can't eat it." ”

Ting Zheng was opening his mouth to eat, and immediately put down his chopsticks when he heard Yueyao's words: "Sister, what's wrong?" ”

Seeing Yue Yao like this, Tingli hurriedly asked, "Third sister, why can't you eat it?" "Even if it's unpalatable, you can't eat it, you shouldn't let Tingzheng not eat it.

Yue Yao shook her head: "This is a soup made from beef bones, and Ting Zheng and I can't now." "You can't touch meat during the period of filial piety, Yueyao remembers this porcelain.

After Tingli took a bite, he realized that it was indeed made of broth, so he hurriedly called Xiao Er to change the noodles for two nights. As for Yue Yao and Ting Zheng's two bowls of noodles, they didn't pour them out, and they were directly given to the servants who followed.

Yue Yao felt a gaze sweep towards her. I couldn't help but look back and saw a teenager sitting in the corner downstairs. The young master was wearing a gray robe, very burly, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, but what was conspicuous was that the young master had two hideous scars on his face.

The young master looked back at Yue Yao straight with a coldness in his eyes. The coldness that emanated from his whole body and the two hideous scars were terrifying. Ordinary people have to be scared.

Yue Yao calmly retracted her gaze, just as Xiao Er gave her somen noodles, she took a bite: "Well, it's really good." "This noodle is much better than her cook's. I don't have to say anything about this craftsmanship, but it deserves to be such a famous noodle shop.

Yueyao was eating noodles when she heard a commotion in the corner. When she looked up, she saw that the shopkeeper was standing at the young man who was looking at her just now.

The young master's face was very ugly.

Yue Yao heard from Xiao Er's words that this young man had no money to pay the bill. Xiao Er spoke very unpleasantly: "Our store is a small business, if there is really no money to pay objectively, then leave something as a mortgage!" "At least this green shirt can still be worth dozens of dollars.

Yue Yao frowned, but didn't say anything.

The young master looked at the veiled Yue Yao and said, "Don't worry, someone will pay me." After speaking, he pointed to Yueyao.

Yueyao was very strange, but after thinking about it, she said to Peng Chun, who was standing beside her, "You tell Xiao Er that we will pay this son's account." Yueyao didn't know why this young man found her, but she could still afford a few bowls of noodles.

Ting Li glanced at the young man and frowned, "Third sister, this kind of person shouldn't help each other. Since he didn't have any money, he shouldn't have eaten in a noodle restaurant. "If you don't have money, you should buy two steamed buns to satisfy your hunger, and slap your swollen face to fill your fat.

Yue Yao smiled: "It's only a few dozen dollars." "Actually, I don't care if there is a lot of money, the main thing is that Yueyao wants to form this good fate.

Peng Chun listened to Yueyao's words, so he walked over and talked to the little er, and the little two gave up. didn't know that this young man had ordered a lot of dry food. This teenager's behavior is a bit of a scoundrel, and the meaning revealed is that someone pays the bill anyway, so he just rubs it more.

Tingli's face was very ugly.

Yue Yao smiled lightly and said to Peng Chun: "Counting the food he brought, there is not much money. You go and pay for him. "She can still afford a few taels of silver.

Tingli sighed slightly: "It's not a matter of a few taels of silver. Seeing Yueyao's smiling appearance, Tingli didn't say anything. This cousin is still young and doesn't know the sinister nature of the world, it's not a matter of a few taels of silver, but this kind of person is not worth helping.

After finishing their meal, the group continued on their way. As soon as the carriage left the town, I heard Peng Chun walk to the side of Yueyao's carriage and say, "Girl, that kid just now came over to say thank you to the girl, but was stopped by the eldest young master." ”

Yue Yao smiled lightly and didn't say anything more. Yueyao didn't believe that such a person would thank her for a meal, there must be something wrong.

Agui, the attendant beside Tingli, said, "Young Master, do you want to come forward and drive this person away." ”

Tingli looked at the young man walking like the wind, thinking about the young man's behavior just now, but shook his head: "Let him come over and see what he has to do." ”

When Tingli heard that this young man was borrowing money from Yueyao, he was speechless for the moment: "You go, we don't have the money to lend you." "I've never seen such a thick-skinned person. Just eat it, and come to rub money, I've never seen such a thick-skinned person.

The young man said coldly: "I didn't ask you to borrow it, I asked that girl to borrow it." I'm sure the girl will lend me money. ”

The corners of Tingli's mouth twitched: "Don't be an inch. "This person wants to blackmail, and he is not ashamed to be so upright, and now blackmailers are so arrogant. Has the world become so bad?

The young man glanced at Tingli: "You go and ask that girl, if she says she won't borrow it, I'll leave immediately." ”

Ting Zheng was a little helpless: "Cheng, Agui, you go and ask the girl." He had the intention to send people away, but they had already made it clear that if Yueyao left without borrowing, it would naturally be best if there was no conflict.

Hua Bud was so angry that her nose was crooked: "You don't want to get an inch, my girl helped him pay the bill and didn't let the store beat him, and she was already kind, and she even had to borrow money from my girl, which is really unreasonable." She had never seen such a scoundrel before.

Ting Zheng shook his head and said, "Sister Hua Bud, people must be desperate." Otherwise, I wouldn't have borrowed money from my sister, and if my sister had money, she would lend some to others. ”

Yue Yao touched Ting Zheng's forehead: "My family Ting Zheng is really a kind-hearted child. "But you can't be so kind to everyone. Some people, if they can't be good to her, they will bite you to death if they are good to her.
