Lin Yujuan's master and servant followed several officials to sit on the hired passenger boat and go south along the river, the northwest wind blowing in the current season, the sails on the passenger ship were raised, and the smooth wind and water did not even arrive at the Guazhou ferry in an hour. www.biquge.info At this time, it is close to Shenshi, and the sun goes down early in winter, and it is a bit dangerous to cross the river when it gets dark. So the group found a post station at the Guazhou ferry, planning to stay for one night and cross the river at dawn the next day.

These officials are just the lowest level of officials, and when they arrive at the post station, they can only live in the inferior room, and in order to save money and drink, several people have a large shop. Seeing this, Lin Yujuan asked Sister-in-law Li to take the silver to the kitchen and make them a few snacks, braised pork, braised chicken, river fish and so on. Not to mention, it's really a soft mouth, and after a few good dishes were put on the table, they were a lot more polite when they talked to Sister-in-law Li. Lin Yujuan's master and servant just ordered a dish and a soup and brought it into the room to eat. They also lived in the most ordinary room, with a bed, a table and two benches. As for the futon on the bed, well, I don't think about it so much, can I still sleep at night if I think about it more?

Besides, Lin Yusuo has been sullen since his second sister left with the official, and the incident that happened today is really beyond the little things he usually encounters, and he is a little overwhelmed. Li Dajiang only tried his best to comfort and enlighten him, but the effect was not very good. Lin Yusuo was so worried that he was spinning around the yard, and he couldn't be at peace for a moment. Suddenly, he patted his head, "By the way, I should go to Ganquan Road to send a letter to Uncle Jiang to see if they can help come up with some good ideas." ”

Lin Yusuo went back to the house to get some change, said hello to Li Dajiang, and said that he was going to Ganquan Road to find Jiang Mingde. Li Dajiang didn't worry that he would go out alone, so he asked Lin Yu to lock up the store at home, and he went to Xue Mansion on Ganquan Road by himself. Li Dajiang inquired all the way to the door of Xue Mansion on Ganquan Road, looked at the house in front of him, the door was closed, and he stepped forward and knocked on the door. After a while, the porter opened the side door and came out to ask him who he was looking for.

"I'm from the Lin family's shop on Dongguan Street, and I want to find your young master Jiang Xiucai."

"Young Master Cousin is not here, and he won't be back until the evening, do you want to leave a message?" The porter remembered that the two young masters had explained before, if someone from Lin Ji from Dongguan Street came to look for them, they must pass it on.

"Is your master there?" Li Dajiang thought to himself that it was good that Jiang Mingde was not there, and it was good to find Xue Tingfang.

"The host went back to Changzhou. It will take a while to come back. ”

"Okay, please tell Jiang Xiucai, just say that Lin Ji has something to do with him." After saying that, I thanked the porter and hurried back.

When Jiang Mingde's master and servant came back in the evening, the porter told him the news that Lin Ji had come, and Jiang Mingde didn't know what was going on, so he sent Zhishu to ask about the situation. Who knew that not long after, Zhishu ran back out of breath and told him that Lin Yujuan had let the people from the Nanjing Weaving Bureau take him away. was so shocked that Jiang Mingde dropped his job and immediately asked the porter to prepare a car and rushed to Lin Ji on Dongguan Street. Poor Zhishu has not eaten a bite of dinner until now, and his stomach is grumbling with hunger. The young master has something urgent to go out, he has to wait with him, where is the time to eat. Fortunately, there was a girl ring who was good with him next to him, and he wrapped a few pieces of snacks and took them to eat on the road.

Jiang Mingde rushed to Lin Ji and asked Lin Yusuo and Li Dajiang carefully about the situation. I learned that they went to Jiangdu Yamen to verify that it was indeed someone from the Nanjing Weaving Bureau who took Lin Yujuan away. His heart was both relieved and relieved. The relief is that since those people are indeed officials of the Weaving Bureau, Lin Yujuan is not in danger for the time being. I am worried that the admiral weaving in this weaving bureau is served by the eunuchs in the palace, and these individuals are much more insidious and ruthless than ordinary people.

"I'm going to get her out there and do everything I can to get her out. She must be frightened now, and she must be complaining that I was the one who did the work. Otherwise, she would have been married a long time ago, where would she have encountered these things. Jiang Mingde thought of this and returned to the Xue Mansion with the book of knowledge. In the carriage, Jiang Mingde told Zhishu about going to Nanjing. Zhishu almost cried when he heard this,

"My young master, you came to Yangzhou to study, where can you just go to Nanjing. Besides, what kind of weaving yamen, can you let us in? You just listen to the small persuasion, you should not go to Nanjing, it will not work. ”

"Well, you don't understand. I've made up my mind, I don't need to persuade anymore, I'll feel guilty if I don't make this trip. Jiang Mingde muttered.

"Young Master, your heart is too kind, and the affairs of the Lin family have nothing to do with you." Zhishu muttered.

"Don't say anything, go back and pack your things and find a boat owner who is familiar with the waterways. We'll set off tomorrow at the beginning of the morning, and if you hurry up, you might be able to catch up. ”

The master and servant packed up their silver clothes, prepared dry rations, and after finding their ships, they rested early, so that they could set out the next morning.

Jiang Mingde lay on the bed and forced himself to fall asleep quickly, but he couldn't sleep. All I was thinking about over and over again in my mind was that Lin Yujuan was taken away by the Weaving Bureau. After thinking about it, it suddenly occurred to me that the leader of this weaving bureau was a eunuch, and he was very bad with them literati, so it seemed that this show sign was not easy to use. Thinking of this, he jumped up from the bed, found the housekeeper in the house, and asked him to find a few Xue Tingfang's clothes. He decided, when the time came, he just said that he was a businessman.

The next morning, before dawn, the master and servant set out on the hired boat. When the sun came out, the boat also arrived at the Guazhou ferry. The master and servant went ashore to inquire at the post station, Lin Yujuan and his party had really lived here, and they had just set off not long ago, and they estimated that they had just arrived in Jiangxin now. Jiang Mingde didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore when he heard this, so he asked Zhishu to drop a few pieces of silver and hurried away.

Lin Yujuan was very comfortable at home a while ago, and she didn't have to do housework or anything, but now the weather is cold, so she sleeps until she wakes up naturally every day to do manual work. As a result, the government was hijacked today, and she naturally couldn't sleep at night lying on the bed in the post station. She stared at her eyes and thought about it for a long time before she fell asleep, and the next day she woke up early to go, so she felt uncomfortable all over her body. If you don't eat well or sleep well, the key is that you're in a bad mood and your nerves are highly tense. She didn't know what kind of situation awaited her when she arrived in Nanjing, and she didn't know anything except that the weaving bureau was making clothes for the royal family. So she couldn't guess what others were going to do to her. Today's wind is not too strong, but even so, the waves in the Yangtze River are still not small. The small wooden boat kept bouncing up and down on the river, making it very uncomfortable for the people sitting in it. (To be continued.) )
