Chapter 7: Su Jiu returns
The wind stops and the snow stops, but for most of the day, the place as far as the eye can see is already a bright white, the slanting sun tears open the haze, revealing a little bit of glow, and the evening bell of the wooden pagoda temple reverberates, long and long. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
A carriage, three people on horseback, drove into Anhua Gate from the official road, the curtain of the car was half lifted, revealing a handsome face, the peach blossom eyes were full of mildness, and an old but loud voice came from the car, "Wooden Tower Evening Bell, Ninth Master, we have arrived." ”
The curtain on the other side of the carriage was also lifted, Qin Fang looked at the novelty everywhere, and felt the atmosphere everywhere, he turned his face to look at Su Jiu, now he knows the true identity of this ninth steward, however, he is not uncommon to flatter, unless it is the master's eldest brother and the little master, thinking of the little master, his eyes are full of brilliance, "Ninth master, is the little master also here?" ”
"She'll come!" Su Jiu's whole temperament has become gentler now, and when he mentioned Luo Qi, he even smiled, Qin Fang's eyes lit up when he heard this, "The ninth master sent someone to find it?" ”
Lowering the curtain, Su Jiu shook his head, "No, I'll wait for her." ”
In your twenties, do you want to act like an old man, waiting for you to come back here~ Qin Fang complained in his heart, and the daylily that he was waiting for was cold, speechless.
The old Su steward also sighed in his heart, when Ah Jiu left from Chang'an, Ah Jiu still looked stubborn and silent, Zhao Niangzi left quietly, and several of their cronies felt that Ah Jiu might collapse again, but they didn't expect that after Ah Jiu was silent for a few days, when he walked out of the study, the whole person was full of lightness.
Ah Jiu withdrew all the manpower who was secretly looking for Zhao Niangzi, concentrated on studying the architecture diagram left by Zhao Niangzi, and even personally wrote a letter to report the departure of Zhao Niangzi to the head of the family, and then recommended Qin Fang, this kid, everything became normal, as if, this year, that hearty and beautiful little lady has never appeared.
Only Su Jia knew that that night, Zhao Niangzi went out of the city, and after he went back to report, Jiu Ye was silently cleaning up all the portraits and small statues in the entire study, one by one, one by one, like a treasure, but finally burned it with his own hands.
That night, in the brazier in the study, ashes flew everywhere.
That night, there was only one note left in the end, the one that Zhao Niangzi asked someone to send back, Jiu Ye looked at it carefully again, and then gently put it into the brazier.
After that night, the Ninth Master changed, no, the Ninth Master did not change, but let go, as if he had returned to the Ninth Master who had not experienced heartache and had no life and death overnight.
The carriage did not go straight to Suzaku Street, but passed through the two squares of Da'an and Zhaohang, and entered Yongyangfang before the gate was closed.
In Chang'an City, among the fifty-four squares under the jurisdiction of Wannian County east of Zhuque Street, and in the twelve squares near the imperial city, the Shengye Square is inhabited by commercial giants, and the Sufu compound is here.
The housekeeper followed Su Tianhong and walked forward in small steps, "The old slave received the news, and when Jiulang passed the city gate, it was not early, so he went directly to the Wooden Pagoda Temple to settle down. ”
"Wooden Pagoda Temple......" Su Tianhong's footsteps are not a temple where the incense is very strong, but Qing'er always likes to go there to overlook the mountains, thinking of his late wife, after greeting Mrs. Su, he came out to go to the plum blossoms, and slowly changed to his main courtyard, "Tell Aunt Ding, don't wait tonight." ”
Luo Qi was dressed as a man, wearing a hood, covered in a thick fur coat and only revealing a pair of eyes, and finally entered Yongyang Fang before the door closed, and a carriage in front of him was gradually moving away.
I came so late, it seems that I am going to stay in the temple, Luo Qi took another look, and went home with a horse's belly.
Nowadays, she goes out early and returns late every day, Mo Xuan, which is her bookstore in the West Market, has gradually had a business near the end of the year, although it is all some small work of engraving genealogy or sorting out codexes, because bookstores are generally reluctant to take it, but it can be seen that the labor required to carve a board is too large, just because it is not used once, it is really not cost-effective.
In previous years, these people asked someone to inquire about some private engravings, but those private engravings were not filed with the government, so there were often things like paying first and then paying, or paying first and then engraving.
Although Mo Xuan is small, he has been prepared in the official mansion, and in Mo Xuan, contrary to other workshops, he does not take big jobs, but only small jobs.
In fact, there is another very important reason why she is willing to do small work, that is, she is now accumulating character molds, and the content in the codex is very rich, and she can make money by the way, of course, it is better!
When she arrived at the door of the house, there was already a porter who was still public, Luo Qi turned over and dismounted, threw the reins to the porter, and strode into the door, and there was a sweeping mother-in-law who greeted her.
Moved in, it's been a month and a half, Luo Qi has changed the four houses that entered the door into warehouses, rows of lattice shelves are neatly placed, the relationship between Princess Tuo Ankang, bought three young men from the tooth shop, the eldest one is eighteen years old named Luo Jia, and one is sixteen years old named Luo Yi, both of them can read and write, and they are arranged to manage the classification and storage of the word molds in the warehouse, and there is also a twelve-year-old, named Luo Bing, who is clever and can read and write, and has a good character, and is now sent to Bi Fang as an apprentice.
She also bought three families, the face of Princess Ankang, the corner of the wall carved by the big fang, the Song family was sprinkled just now, and the Wang family and the Zhao family were in the kitchen, and the children in their family were also dyed and carved from childhood, just cheap Luo Qi, all the brains were sent to Bi Fang, the two-story attic was opened, and it became a carving room.
The potter Zhang Feng is a 'lonely man', and when he has nothing to do, he soaks on the second floor to watch them carve molds.
In addition, there is also a groom and a porter, all of which have one thing in common, that is, all of them have signed a deed of sale.
It is precisely because of this that Luo Qi found that they came into contact with the movable type printing that should not have appeared in this era.
Not far from entering the door, I saw the Wang family carrying a food box to look at the rockery, and when I saw Luo Qi coming back, I hurriedly saluted, Luo Qi followed her line of sight and looked up, "The second master stayed on it for another day?" ”
The Wang family nodded, "It's useless for lunch, and the servants will be asked to take it back for dinner." ”
"Uncle and third master, didn't you come over?"
"I've been here, the uncle stood below for a while, and told the servants to deliver the food here on time and left, the third master ......"
The Wang family's words were slurred. (To be continued.) )
