Chapter 203, it is difficult to sleep at night, and there is no trace of anyone everywhere

As soon as the front foot saw off Wu Jin and Situ Yan, Tian Wuchang's family started to discuss.

"Dad, why do you want to help the man surnamed Wu, I don't think there are any good people in their family?" Tian Wuchang's youngest son doesn't like Wu De, and he doesn't even have a good impression of Wu Jin.

"Boss, what do you think?" Tian Wuchang glanced at his youngest son, and did not rush to make a statement, but turned his head to look at his eldest son, who had been keeping his head down and not saying a word.

"Let's not talk about Wu De, when I saw that Wu Jin today, I don't think it's quite the same as what I saw in the daytime? I can't say it, but his sister doesn't look like Wu De at all? ”

"Well, I promise them, and it's also for the sake of that girl's face! Anyway, if this thing can't be done, it depends on whether their brothers and sisters can make up ten taels of silver? If Wu Jin came to beg him, he might not agree, but to Situ Yan, Tian Wuchang's family liked this little girl very much.

Here, Tian Wuchang's family was discussing, and over there, Wu Jin and Situ Yan were encouraging and warming their brothers and sisters on the side of Juntun Road. And a few steps away in Wu De's house, Wu De was humming and chirping and lying on the kang, sighing non-stop, he had recovered from shock and stupidity, and just invited Wu Jin to ask again, knowing that this girl who was similar to Situ Wan was his own daughter Wu Yan.

Of course, I also know that Wu Yan is no longer surnamed Wu now, but has changed her surname to Situ and set up her own portal, in addition to sighing, there is also a trace of regret, if she didn't kill Situ Wan according to Aunt Qin's words, wouldn't she have poisoned her own daughter, and now she won't suffer this retribution, and she will come to this northwest to suffer this crime. The more I thought about it, the more sad I felt in my heart, and I didn't forget the old tears and cried a few times.

The fourth aunt accompanied her and persuaded her in a low voice, but the sixth aunt had not recovered from the snow wolf's fright, but she was crying with Wu De at this time. The fourth aunt knows a little bit about the past of Wu Mansion, so she is naturally more calm, and at this moment she cares more about the grain, meat and household goods brought by Situ Yan.

In fact, the fourth aunt and the sixth aunt originally had some silver money hidden on them, but on the way to the escort, Wu De was allowed to honor the officers and soldiers who were escorted, so if Wu Jin hadn't asked Cui Ping to help one or two these days, the life of the three would have been unbearable. But today, Cui Ping made japonica rice, not only did she not leave it for them, but even the things brought by Situ Yan were all moved to Wu Jin's house, and she had no intention of giving them away, how could she not be in a hurry, but Wu De was only concerned about sadness at this time, and he didn't care about these things at all.

And the sixth aunt is like this, she is anxious to wipe her tears together. The three of them cried for a meal, and then they stopped, and the fourth aunt saw the opportunity, lightly touched the sixth aunt, and glanced at her, and the two got along for so long, and they had some tacit understanding. And the sixth aunt was just frightened by the snow wolf, and was reprimanded by Situ Yan, and even almost slapped her mouth, she had already hated Situ Yan in her heart, of course, she was blowing the wind on Wu De's pillow with the fourth aunt at this time, "Master, the eldest lady is really, she brought so much delicious food, but she didn't send it to you at all, such unfilial piety, where is she still a boudoir daughter from a famous family?" ”

The fourth aunt saw that the sixth aunt opened her mouth, so she naturally helped on the side. Although she didn't hate Situ Yan, she really thought about those japonica rice and white noodles in her heart. They hadn't tasted japonica rice for a few days, so they also helped the sixth aunt, "Yes, master, although the eldest lady is not surnamed Wu now, but the blood and family relationship are still messy, which is to say that you can not have it, it is better to be soft, keep your head down, maybe the eldest lady still has money there, and our life can be better?" ”

"Submit to softness! Submit! Do you think she'll listen? Now that they have changed their surnames and established a household, they no longer have me as a father in their hearts. You didn't kill me with a knife today, you already gave me a lot of face! You don't know, you don't know! It's my fault, it's all my fault! Wan'er, you have a spirit in heaven and a reluctant heart, so you will send your daughter to torture me, but the mistake has been made, and I have fallen to this point, can't you forgive me? No matter how the fourth and sixth aunts persuaded them, Wu De just didn't want to bow his head to Situ Yan. The three of them barely drank a mouthful of black batter and spent the night with their own thoughts.

And Situ Yan and Wu Jin returned to the house where they lived temporarily, because Wu Jin and they only settled down yesterday, so they only found three rooms where they could live, Wu Jin and Zhu Zi lived in one, and Li Youzhu and Cui Ping lived in one, because of Situ Yan's arrival, Li Youzhu moved to Wu Jin's house and gave the place to Situ Yan.

But now, where can everyone sleep, they are all sitting in Wu Jin's room and chatting about what happened to each other after separation.

"Bolt, just now the eldest lady and I have discussed with Chief Tian Wu that we want to set up our own military household, so that even if my father is at fault, it will no longer affect me, and are you willing to come with me?"

"Slaves should follow!" Of course, the bolt has to follow Wu Jin, and Wu Jin knows it in his heart, but he still has to ask if he should ask.

"Bolt, don't agree too quickly, this self-supporting military household is conditional, you have to conduct riding and shooting every day, and you have to cultivate 100 acres of military land, and raise five war horses, I have to go to the school in the morning to conduct it, and you have to worry more about farming and raising horses, so you are still willing to follow me?" Wu Jin knew in his heart that the bolt could only be more miserable with him, but the two of them were in love, and some words still had to be made clear in person.

"Young Master, don't say it's raising horses and farming, it's just going to the battlefield for you to fight hard, and the minions will follow you!" The embolus spoke firmly, which made Situ Yan's impression of this person three points better.

"Okay, it's not just you and Yan'er! The three of us live together! Wu Jin patted the shoulder of the bolt and looked at the little sister sitting next to him, who was still a little wavering in his heart, but there was a sense of stability for a while.

"Don't be afraid of the plugs, and me! I promise not to make you and your brother suffer. And there is japonica rice to eat every meal! Situ Yan looked at Wu Jin with a smile and gave the plug a reassuring look.

"Miss, and me and Youzhu!" Cui Ping saw that the eldest lady didn't mention it, and she was a little anxious.

"Cui Ping, you and Youzhu settled us down, and then rushed back to the capital to help the eldest young master take care of the yard and shop, and before I came, I deliberately went to the capital to set up five more shops, plus the two of my brother, no one took care of it. Although I also made government rules, and the inner courtyard was temporarily taken care of by Mama Li, she was old after all, Wu Guo in the outer courtyard was still young, and there were a few cousins at home as guests. Moreover, the rent of these seven shops is also enough for the daily expenses of the house, so you can go back with the handwritten letter from the eldest young master and me, and then arrange it yourself! Li Youzhu was about to object, when he heard Wu Jin open his mouth first, and he swallowed back the words that came to his mouth.

"Yan'er, where did you get the money, five shops, to say the least, you have to get three thousand taels of silver. Did you sell all the dowry left by your mother? Wu Jin suddenly heard the doubts in Situ Yan's words.

"Brother, don't worry, where can I sell my mother's dowry. Before, my brother Tuo Wu sent me five hundred taels, but I never spent it, and before I came, I went to Shuanghe Village again and took out all the silver taels that my brother had stored in the cellar, just enough to buy a shop! ”

"But you didn't get the letter until the fifteenth day of the sixth month, how could you have time to go back to Lu'an?" Wu Jin still didn't believe it.

"I set off on the day I got the letter, and I worked hard all the way, and I finally made it in time!"

"How can you be in such a hurry, where can your body eat? And you fled from Youzhou all the way, didn't you also spend a lot of money? Where is the rest enough to buy a shop in Beijing? Wu Jin was pressing step by step, and Situ Yan had no choice but to answer carefully step by step.

"I didn't spend much money when I fled, the food was grown in my own field, although I suffered a disaster, but I also saved a lot the year before last, just enough, and I also made dim sum with the four brothers of the Li family to set up a stall, and I also saved some, and when I fled, I spent the money I earned at that time!"

"Yan'er, won't you become a 'business member'?"

"No, I'm still a good person, I didn't buy a shop and just set up a stall, and when I sold things, the four brothers of the Li family went to sell them, I just stayed at home to keep accounts and count the money!"

"That's okay, this Li family brother has a noble character, if I have the opportunity, I will personally come to the door to thank you!" Situ Yan saw that Wu Jin finally believed it, so she took a deep breath, she just slipped away for a while, this one lie is said, it will take thousands of lies to come true, but it is really tiring.

"But Yan'er, you brought out all the money, how should the four brothers of the Li family live? And when you came to the northwest this time, you asked for a dart game to bet on the dart, and you lived in the hotel to play the top, I'm afraid it cost a lot, right? ”

"Brother forgot, I still have my mother's dowry, in addition to jewelry, but there is also a lot of silver! When it comes to money, my brother doesn't have to worry about it, I know it in my heart. As for the four elder brothers of the Li family, Brother Da Lang is already the village head of Fuxiang Village, not only does he have a monthly salary of 100 Wen per month, but he also does not have to pay taxes on the rented official land, so their life will not be sad! ”

"When Li Dalang first arrived in Fuxiang Village, he was able to become the head of a village, but he has some ability?" Wu Jin was a little curious about the four brothers of the Li family.

"Yes, after I arrived in Lijia Village, I taught my four elder brothers to read and write, and the third brother learned faster than Brother Da Lang, and now I have begun to learn the four books!" Situ Yan was happy when she mentioned the four brothers of the Li family, and almost told San Lang Shilang about studying in the county school, but she left half a sentence on her lips. Otherwise, the money used in the repair will have to be explained.

"Okay, it seems that my Yan'er is still a master!" Wu Jin touched the little sister's head, this little sister surprised him everywhere. The five shops in the capital, even when Wu De was an official before, there was no such scenery at home. The main thing is that Wu De is just harsh on others, but he is very squandered on himself, Qinglou Chu Pavilion, no less silver, not to mention the beautiful wife and concubine of a house, the silver is naturally spent like flowing water.

"That's fine, Youzhu and Cuiping, you just follow what the eldest lady said, and when we settle down, you will rush back to the capital!" Listening to Situ Yan's words, Wu Jin felt more and more confident in his heart.

"The minion doesn't leave, the eldest young master will let the minion and Cui Ping stay to take care of you and the eldest lady!"

"That's right, Miss, the slave maid has just met with you, and the slave maid doesn't want to leave!"

"Cui Ping, my brother and the bolt will not be a military household for a lifetime, as short as one year, as long as three years, I believe that my brother will be able to make military merits, and change his household as soon as possible to become a good family, and then the capital Situ Mansion will be my brother and my home, if no one takes care of it, how can it be done? And my brother will be admitted to the imperial examination as an official in the future, which is difficult to do without money, you and Youzhu go back to help us take care of the shop, and those rents are not a small income to save for a few years! ”

"But the slave can't bear you!" Cui Ping is really made of water, these tears will come as soon as they are said, and Situ Yan has no choice but to persuade each other again and again. In the end, Wu Jin spoke, insisting on letting the two go back to Beijing, and the matter was settled.

"Yan'er, whether you can take the imperial examination as a brother is no longer a luxury, as long as you can turn into a good family and will not become a drag on you, you will be satisfied with being a brother!" Wu Jin didn't think as much as Situ Yan did, and he thought long-term.

"My brother was enlightened at the age of four, and he was able to recite poetry at the age of six, so it would be a pity to give up like this! Although there is no master to teach at the moment, if I can read more books, I will definitely have a chance in the future, can my brother believe in my little sister? ”

"Okay, as long as Yan'er asks her brother to do it, she will do her best for her brother!" Although Wu Jin himself didn't see the long-term view, he didn't want to see his little sister disappointed in him, so as long as his little sister wanted him to do it, he would try his best to do it.

Situ Yan understands that it is not easy for a person to abandon martial arts and follow literature, or to abandon literature and martial arts. Although Wu Jin wanted to open it, he was still a little disappointed. So whether it's for himself or for her sister, as long as he's willing to try to cheer up.

So Situ Yan also followed Wu Jin's words, "Okay, my little sister will follow her brother and make a living with her brother!" ”

Wu Jin looked at the little sister who smiled and bent her eyebrows, and touched her head dotingly, although her Yan'er was decisive, but she was still a child in the end, he couldn't be depressed anymore, he wanted to give her little sister a warm home, and her determination to support her little sister couldn't help but be a little stronger. It was Situ Yan's subtle encouragement that made Wu Jin let go of negative emotions such as loss, unwillingness, and decadence little by little in the days to come, and finally cheered up again.

The matter of ten taels of silver is naturally settled, but it can't be handed over to Tian Wuchang so quickly, at least it will have to be delayed for a few more days to show that the money is difficult to make up, so that people will not be suspicious. And there are still a lot of things to do in the military camp tomorrow, so Situ Yan didn't talk to the four of them too late, and went to bed at the end of the day.

The road to find relatives on her side was safely closed, but Duanmu Xuan's life was not so comfortable, he left a day later than Situ Yan, but he didn't want to chase straight to Yumen Pass and didn't see Situ Yan's trace, Mo Feng inquired with the inns along the way, knowing that Situ Yan was indeed this road, and the person had already arrived at Yumen Pass, but when Duanmu Xuan arrived at Yumen Pass, the little brother seemed to have disappeared out of thin air, and even Duanmu Xuan once wondered if the little brother had gone out of the customs to the Western Regions.

Mo Feng saw that the young master was only focused on finding people, and he didn't even go to the general's mansion, so he was anxious, but he persuaded and persuaded him, and said that Duanmu Xuan just didn't follow, so he had to accompany the young master to look for people, and ran for three days in a row, turning over the entire Yumen Pass and Dunhuang County, and he didn't see any trace of Situ Yan, so he had no choice but to give up, so he took Mo Feng and the guards to the general's mansion and took office.
