Chapter Seventy-Five: Famous Posts
After breakfast, Sun instructed Ling Jingyan: "Ah Shu and Ah Xiao have just arrived, and they are not familiar with the environment, so today you lead their sister and brother to take a good turn." ”
Ling Jingyan responded with a smile.
Ling Jingshu was actually not interested in the Ling family's house, and what she wanted to go to most was the Rejuvenation Hall.
However, today is only the fifth day of the new year, and there are still some days before the fifteenth. Even if I went to the Rejuvenation Hall, I couldn't see Imperial Doctor Wei. Moreover, the imperial grandson has just returned to Beijing, and if he wants to visit the door to ask for a name, he has to delay it for a few days
I've been waiting for so many days, so I'm not in a hurry, just wait patiently!
Ling Jingyan didn't notice Ling Jingshu's absent-mindedness, and introduced the Ling family's mansion with great interest: "Listen to my mother, this mansion was originally the house of a waiter of the Ministry of Rites. Later, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites returned to his hometown, and the house was empty. At that time, my father had just joined the Ministry of Industry, and he happened to hear that this house was going to be sold, so he bought it for money."
As for this silver, of course, it was sent by Mrs. Ling, who was far away in Dingzhou.
Just such a house, it cost a full 30,000 taels of silver.
When Uncle Ling was imprisoned for his crimes, in order to save Uncle Ling from prison, this house was sold at a low price of 15,000 taels. The ancestral property of the Ling family's old house in Dingzhou has also been sold a lot. The huge Ling family showed the desolation of the sunset in the west overnight.
It was only with the help of the Lu family that Uncle Ling was rescued. The Ling family also owes the Lu family this great favor and kindness. In that case, what qualifications and confidence do you have to turn your face with the Lu family? How could he be willing to offend the Lu family for her?
Thinking of the past, Ling Jingshu pulled the corners of her lips sarcastically.
Ling Jingyan didn't notice it, and pulled Ling Jingshu around the Ling family's house.
Finally, he stopped in the Ling family's garden.
It is said that it is a garden, but it is actually a bit reluctant.
A small rockery. Next to it sits an elaborate gazebo. Next to the gazebo is a small pond with some lotus flowers. At this time, it is just June, and it is not yet flowering, and there are a few lotus leaves floating on the pond sporadically.
A lot of flowers and trees are planted in the garden, and a lot of peonies are planted in a special place.
At this time, the peony flowering period has not yet passed, and some flowers bloom a little later. It is vigorous to open. Look at it from afar. A dazzling sight.
Ling Jingyan said proudly: "Ashu, don't look at this peony garden, it's not big, but there are dozens of peonies!" There are a few that I planted myself. I'll show you. ”
As he spoke, he pointed over one by one.
Of course, Ling Jingshu would not disappoint Ling Jingyan, and praised Ling Jingyan deliberately.
Ling Jingyan was complacent in her heart.
Ling Xiao, who had been silent, said coldly: "Does Cousin Yan also grow peonies?" It's a shame I can't see. Otherwise, you can enjoy it. ”
Ling Jingyan was about to show her face.
Ling Xiao asked politely again: "By the way, Ah Shu will also plant peonies." I don't know how the peony planted by my cousin compares to Auntie? ”
Ling Jingyan: ""
No matter how thick-skinned Ling Jingyan is. I couldn't say the words "Of course the peonies I planted are better", and it took a long time to hold back a few words: "Between the two." ”
Several maids hung their heads in unison.
If the master sees them snickering, he will definitely be scolded.
Ling Jingshu smiled kindly and relieved Ling Jingyan: "These peonies planted by Cousin Yan. The flowers are huge, colorful and fragrant. They are all rare and high-quality. Ah Xiao, wait for your eye disease to heal. You'll be able to see it for yourself. ”
Ling Xiao has always heard the words "eye disease cured" recently, and he is full of longing for his future life, and he nodded obediently when he heard the words. And no more.
Ling Jingyan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly opened the topic: "After turning around for a long time, I'm also a little tired, let's go back and rest first!" ”
In the next few days, Ling Jingshu stayed at Ling's house.
Ling Ji is a prisoner of Guozijian, and he deliberately took a long vacation in order to return to Dingzhou. After returning to the capital, he immediately returned to the country.
Uncle Ling, as the head of the Ministry of Works, has no official position, but his affairs are very busy. I also socialize a lot on weekdays, go out early and return late every day, and I haven't had dinner at home for a few days.
The Ling family is left with a bunch of female dependents, plus Ling Xiao, who is blind.
Originally, there were only three people from the Sun family, the Jiang family, and Ling Jingyan, which were inevitably a little deserted, but after adding Ling Jingshu's sisters and brothers, it seemed much more lively.
Ling Xiao is well-behaved and obedient, Ling Jingshu is smart and smart, and knowledgeable and interesting. It was easy to win Sun's favor. Talking is also a lot more casual than before.
"Auntie, my cousin is studying in the Guozi Prison on weekdays, I don't know how long it will take to come back?" Ling Jingshu asked with a smile.
Sun said with a smile: "Guozijian has three days off a month, and he can go home every ten days. ”
Jiang's mind was clever, and he quickly guessed Ling Jingshu's thoughts, and said with a smile: "You want to ask, when will you go to the Prince's Mansion to ask for a name!" You don't have to worry about this, your cousin has always kept it in mind! Will be back for sure in the next two days."
Before he finished speaking, a maid came to report: "The eldest young master is back." ”
This is Cao Cao, Cao Cao is here!
Everyone laughed.
When Sun heard that Ling Ji had returned, he was overjoyed and led everyone to greet him at the door.
Ling Ji strode over and grinned, "No wonder I'm in a hurry to come back today." It must be that a few of you are thinking about me in your hearts. ”
As he spoke, he winked at Jiang.
A burst of sweetness welled up in Jiang's heart, and a shallow flush appeared on his face.
Sun is not the evil mother-in-law who can't wait to see the harmony and love of her son and daughter-in-law, but she didn't see this scene: "Don't stand outside, come in and talk." ”
"Wait! I'm going to give Auntie something first. Ling Ji smiled at Ling Jingshu and took out a thin golden name card from the hidden pocket in his sleeve.
Ling Jingshu's heart beat faster, and her voice trembled a little: "Cousin, this is"
"This is the name of His Royal Highness Taisun."
Ling Ji said with a smile: "I know that you have been anxious for the past few days, and you can't see me, so you can't urge." So this afternoon, I took a special leave and went to the prince's mansion to ask to see His Royal Highness. Coincidentally, His Royal Highness the Taisun entered the palace today and was not in the palace. I originally thought that I would run empty, but I didn't expect that His Royal Highness Taisun had already prepared a famous post. After I went, someone gave me this post. ”
Ling Jingshu took the thin name card with a touched face, and thanked her cautiously: "Thank you, cousin." ”
Ling Ji smiled disapprenously: "What are you doing with me so politely." Hurry up and put the name card away! June 15 is just a few days away. Just take this name card and go to the Rejuvenation Hall. ”
Ling Jingshu held the name card tightly in her hand.
