Chapter 259: It's a pity
"Not even a single entry!" Liu Chengshuang also got the news back.
Liu Chengshuang was dressed in cotton clothes, without the slightest appearance of being an official, and his boots were still stained with mud, so it was obvious that he was rushed back from some ground.
Now is the time for the second rice harvest, and although the drought is fierce, it has been silently resolved. First of all, the emperor's asking for rain proved that he was not a disaster caused by his lack of virtue. Instead, the Lotus Cult was designated as the root cause of the cholera Great Xia. Then the thunder of the Qilin Guard attacked and eliminated the hidden danger in time.
In addition, the well irrigation tool offered by Yunxiang alleviated the impact of the drought. Therefore, Dongxuan Mansion, which was the least affected, is now envied and hated by other prefectures. Liu Yunshuang played with the spirit of 12 points, and wanted to do a good job in this season's harvest.
"Stinky boy, you're back just in time!" Mrs. Liu saw Liu Chengshuang, who was dressed in a simple body, as if she saw hope. This son has been simple and capable since he was a child, with a soft heart and softer ears. "Mother, I raised you so big, and I raised you with a large family, now is the time for you to repay it."
Yun Xiang rolled her eyes, this old couple is old, and their brains are not good. Play with amnesia if it's okay, oh, selective amnesia.
Liu Yunshuang just nodded lightly, "Old man Liu, old lady Liu." It's not early, I've already asked people to call a car, you better start early, there is still some distance from your filial son and grandson's house. ”
Yun Xiang and Yun Yang glanced at each other, and they both silently praised their father in their hearts. Zhou felt a lot more at ease. So he chimed in, "Two old men are here to visit. We can't send you back empty-handed, I have already instructed Hua Yue to prepare the gift, and put it in the carriage. ”
The old couple was sent out of Liu's Mansion in this way. It's not that they don't want to make a fuss. It's because the man himself spoke, and the mansion should be quiet. So the subordinates, who were originally disdainful of the old couple, simply sealed their acupoints respectfully, and then sent the people to the carriage.
Yun Xiang smiled secretly in her heart, sure enough, as long as her father first put on a posture, it didn't matter if it was her mother. is still a subordinate, and he has a lot of courage. But......
"Brother, our family is going to the capital. And it was not preached. ”
Liu Yunyang also noticed this, "In the entire Fucheng, there is a big brother Gu, no one should know." Xiao Yan and Situ Liufeng returned to the capital after settling on their relatives. The former had to return to Xihua with the grain. The latter was busy decorating his house. Waiting to marry at any time.
Yun Xiang took a deep breath, "It seems that someone is doing something inside." I have long felt that the old couple is not quite right when they come back, and I have already called someone to investigate. ”
"It's not hard to know, leave it to me." Liu Yunyang pursed his lips, "I'll go now, you wait for my news." ”
Yunxiang didn't know what method Liu Yunyang planned to use, so she simply found a book in the study to pass the time.
Liu Yunyang really didn't take long to come back, and he entered the study. Just said, "That's it." ”
Yun Xiang didn't ask about things. Instead, he asked curiously, "How did you get the news?" ”
"I'm just taking advantage of the old lady's characteristics, it's simple." Liu Yunyang winked at Yun Xiang.
Yun Xiang suddenly realized, "How much silver did you spend?" "The old lady has also been a lady in Da Yang for a few years, so the price shouldn't be low, right?
Liu Yunyang smiled slyly, "It's only fifty taels." I avoided the old man and asked the old lady alone. "Although the old lady has been a lady for several years, not only does she not have much silver in her hand, but she also makes up a lot of money. In order to put on a good shelf, she didn't spend less. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been encouraged, so I couldn't help but run back all the way.
"Say, don't sell it." Yun Xiang also admired the old couple's behavior of wanting face and not lining. I don't know if they are satisfied with the life they have longed for for a lifetime in recent years.
"They said that the second uncle's family sent them a letter asking them to come back. said that we were going to enter Beijing after the New Year, and said that we should be careful about everything at this time, and we were most afraid of being told badly. Needless to say, Yun Xiang also understood.
They thought they had seized a critical time and grasped the weakness of Yunxiang's family. thought that at this critical time, the Yunxiang family had to eat whatever they had lost, and they didn't dare to say anything, it was a good time for them to want benefits.
It's a pity that Yunxiang's family would rather never go to the capital for the rest of their lives than have a relationship with them again. It won't do them any good.
"The second uncle's family is very bold, such a big handle is in my hands, and they dare to instigate the old couple to find trouble! Hmph, I originally thought that if they were honest, they would leave them to block other people's sour words. But I don't think that's necessary now. "If you don't do it, you won't die, but no one can stop you from looking for death.
Liu Yunyang also knew why Yunxiang kept them, "It's best not to expose their affairs in Zhaoling first, after all, the impact of this kind of thing is too bad." "Is he selfish, he is afraid that this matter will affect his imperial examination. Instead, I was worried that I had just ordered a pro-Yunlian and would be affected by this. Although the two families have broken off their relationship, this kind of vicious thing that angers people and resents people is likely to be implicated by people with good intentions.
Yun Xiang didn't believe that Yun Lian and Situ Liufeng's marriage would be affected, but since Liu Yunyang brought it up like this, then she wouldn't refute it, "I don't think it's that simple." Even if the second uncle wrote a letter to the old couple, they shouldn't know about our trip to the capital. It's the people in our family, except for a few people who are very close and trustworthy, others don't know. It's cousin Wei Yu, and I shouldn't know it yet. ”
"Anyway, those people in the second uncle's family can't be clean." Liu Yunyang didn't want to get used to them at all, "The second uncle and the second uncle are greedy and have a lot of caution, but they are not smart, I think this matter is mostly the two wives of Brother Erlang who are doing it." ”
"These two big Chen are also restless, it's really annoying." Liu Yunyang doesn't like to put his mind on these intrigues. But he also knew that there would be absolutely no idle days waiting for him in the future. After entering the official career, the tilting between officials is more serious, and the battle of wits and courage is thicker than the cheeks.
"They're in chaos too." Yun Xiang's voice was faint, but a little gloomy, "A certain murder case in the county has not been solved yet." I think the prefectural magistrate should be happy that someone will provide him with some clues. She gave Chen a chance, but unfortunately, she didn't cherish it. (To be continued.) )
