Chapter 20: Hands-on
If this Tian Yuwei is really a person close to the emperor, and he is closer, he can't guarantee that he will say a few good words in front of the emperor after he goes back, and his uncle, who is a big official, will arrange it from him, wouldn't it be very promising for him to transfer his husband back to the capital to serve in the future.

No matter how comfortable you are in this cloud barren city, it can be regarded as a poor and remote place compared to the capital, how can you live in the prosperous place of the capital.
As soon as this thought came out, Lin Yurou stepped forward and said, "Can Tian Yuwei and Lord Lin Shangshu in the capital be familiar with each other?" ”
Lin Yufu put down the teacup and said, "Mrs. Hui, there have been a few contacts. ”
Lin Yurou tugged at the silk handkerchief and smiled slightly, "Lord Shang Shulin is my uncle. After thinking about it, he continued: "Speaking of which, our Qu family is also from the capital, just because the emperor is worried, so he has been an official outside. When I saw Tian Yuwei today, a person in the capital, I felt very kind. It's better for Tian Yuwei to eat in our house, and I'll send someone to arrange it. ”
Tian Yuwei hurriedly got up and refused, "Mrs. Xie is kind, just stay in the post house, it's very convenient there." As he spoke, he arranged for the people outside to drive cars and horses to the courtyard to carry things, "Second lady, eldest lady, these things were all brought to you by the general from the capital." ”
Qu Suyi smiled slightly, "There is Lao Tian Imperial Guard." ”
"This box is full of high-quality medicinal materials, the general knows that the second lady and the eldest lady are not in good health, and these medicinal materials are for you to adjust your body daily." Seeing the second box move in, he said: "This box is the cloud silk that Nanxiang paid tribute to the palace, because the queen mother rewarded the general with a box, and the general also asked me to bring it over." This box is the preserved fruit of the Sujia shop in Beijing, and this box is the rice cake of the Nanjia store in the capital......"
Lin Lin always moved in more than a dozen boxes, but there was no mention of silver taels.
Immediately afterwards, Tian Yuwei smiled at Lin Yurou and said: "Madam, this box is given to Mrs. and the two young ladies in the house by our general, and the box is filled with the most popular cloud brocade of the rich lady and lady in Beijing. ”
"Yo!" Lin Yurou said with a smile: "The general still remembers us, and there is Lao Tian Imperial Guard who thanked the general on my behalf." ”
In the end, Tian Yuwei handed the box of jewelry in his arms to Lin Yurou, and there was no sound there.
Lin Yurou turned her head and asked in surprise, "Gone?" ”
"Mrs. Hui, it's all here."
"This ......"
Lin Yurou's hand pointing at those things with a fan was hit by Qu Jiqian, and she hurriedly took it back, she didn't have to guess to know, she wanted to ask why it was all things, and where did the real money go.
In fact, Guo Tongxin also wanted to ask, but how to ask this.
Looking at all these kinds of things, it can be seen that Guo Yuanbai still has affection for their mother and daughter, but what is the matter with only sending things and not money. When they came out more than a year ago, the General's Mansion brought them two hundred and forty taels, and it stands to reason that after a year has passed, they will give them another two hundred and forty taels, and before they came out, Guo Yuanbai also said about it, but for some reason, he hasn't given it until now.
Waiting until now, someone finally came, and all I was looking forward to was something, but there was no silver tael.
What is the reason for this?
After Tian Yuwei left, the Lin clan suddenly became angry. Pointing at Qu Suyi and Guo Tongxin, he asked, "This, what's going on?" Your mother and daughter came to me to recuperate, but the disease was almost gone, do you want to eat and drink in vain with me? As she spoke, she sneered twice, kicked the box containing the satin material, and said angrily: "In the eyes of your general's mansion, is our Qu family so worthless?" I want to send a box of torn clothes, and I want my wife and daughter to eat and live here for nothing, it's ridiculous! ”
"Uncle, how can we eat and live here for nothing." Guo Xiaoxin pleaded: "When we came out of the General's Mansion last year, the silver was two hundred and forty taels, plus jewelry and luxurious clothes, adding up to more than four hundred taels. As a result, it all came into your hands, even if you gave us delicacies from the mountains and seas all day long, it wouldn't cost four hundred taels of silver, not to mention what we ate all day long, just like your maids! ”
Lin Yurou rolled her eyes, and pinched Guo Xiaoxin's arm, "You little conscienceless, who will provide you with food and drink, and who will take you in." Now I'm actually colliding with my mother? After thinking about it, he said: "Don't think that you were born in the General's Mansion, you are what kind of daughter you are, don't you know what your mother's identity is?" If you two have status in the General's Mansion, why bother to come to our poor and remote Cloud Desert City. I think the General's Mansion is going to abandon you, and I haven't sent you for more than a year, so it's hard to come to one person, and I don't mention the matter of silver, don't look at this box one by one, it can be worth a few silvers when converted. The more she spoke, the more angry she became, and she gritted her teeth and said: "What kind of cloud satin brocade, who knows the value of that thing in a small place like ours, what box of tonic medicine to adjust the body, even can't eat enough, what's the use of adjusting the body." ”
"Really?" Guo Tongxin was not polite to her, and said directly: "Since my aunt thinks that these things are not valuable, then we will buy these things and move out to live." ”
"That's not going to work." Over there, Qu Jiqian said directly, "No matter how bad it is, I am also your uncle's house, how can there be a reason to live outside without staying at my uncle's house here." What's more, I don't feel at ease when you mother and daughter go outside. ”
Guo Tong said in his heart: "Uncle don't worry, my mother and I won't starve to death outside, if I am afraid that my father will blame me, I will naturally write to my father, saying that it is not that my uncle's house can't tolerate us, but that my mother and I want to live outside." ”
Hearing her say this, Qu Jiqian didn't let their mother and daughter leave, but turned around and blamed his wife: "Yurou, your temperament should also be changed, not to mention that Su Yi and Xiaoxin brought so much silver and things when they came back then, but they didn't bring anything, shouldn't we, as brothers and sisters-in-law, also raise them." ”
"Brother, sister-in-law?" Lin Yurou sneered, and repeated word by word, "What a brother and sister-in-law." ”
Qu Caixue, who has always been good at lighting fire and adding fuel to the fire, immediately said: "Dad, why are you still talking to outsiders, you see that Guo Xiaoxin looks like a fox like her mother, she must be not favored in the General's Mansion, so she came to our house to eat and drink for nothing." ”
"Enough!" Qu Jiqian snorted and said to Qu Caixue: "Su Yi is your aunt, and Xiaoxin is your sister, how can you say that about them." ”
"What an aunt, what a cousin." Qu Caixue didn't give up, I heard my mother say, "They are not ...... with Ben"
"Presumptuous!" Qu Jiqian's eyes widened, and he raised his hand and slapped Qu Caixue directly, "Caixue, I usually spoil you, but you can't be so ignorant." ”
Looking at Qu Caixue's tender white face, a few red fingerprints immediately appeared.
For a moment, the room was frighteningly quiet.
Guo Tongxin blinked his eyes and couldn't react, why was he beaten when picking snow? She didn't seem to say anything, and she had said that what she said to her mother and her mother before was a hundred times worse than what she had just said, and she was not beaten, could it be that her uncle was crazy today?
