Chapter 302: Entering Beijing
There were three more four-wheeled carriages on this trip, one pulling everyone's cages, and it was the big ox who drove the car.
Nie Shuyao gave the master and servant of Qinglian a carriage, and it was Li Danian who drove the car; A four-wheeled carriage was also prepared for Shen Xinlu and several of them, and they could swap bolts for each other to rest and catch the car.
Each car was equipped with two horses, and the bolt and Li Danian's horse were naturally requisitioned.
The group of five large carriages traveled very fast, and the people who drove the carriage could replace each other when they were tired, unless the horses were tired and did not rest.
There were six people in Nie Shuyao's car, and she didn't feel crowded. At this time, Walnut was talking about Li Wei a year ago.
Li Wei gave birth to a daughter, and the Nie family in Qu County was finally divided. What people didn't expect was that the Nie family's big house was also divided, which was in line with Li Wei's wishes.
Nie Xian also relented because of this, studied hard at home, and Li Wei finally got the happy life she expected. The shop pΓΉ that cooperates with Nie Shuyao has a long time every month, and their life is getting better and better.
A month before Nie Shuyao returned to Qu County, Li Wei's parents received a letter from their own family in the capital. said that the old lady of the family had been ill for a few months and had not recovered, and only after the guidance of the master did he know that the old lady was missing a granddaughter in his life. But the old lady has a few grandchildren, but there are no granddaughters, and some are only granddaughters.
For this reason, the family wanted to recognize a granddaughter in the clan and record it in the name of the eldest daughter-in-law. In this way, the side branches ran to their house like crazy.
But after reading all the nominal granddaughter's eight characters, no one matched. I don't know who said that they still have a branch in Qu County. asked people to come to Li Wei's birthday, but I didn't expect it to be completely in line, so I recruited Li Wei's family to Beijing.
Originally, their Li family had two families in Qu County. Li Wei and her uncle's family, but there is only one woman in the two families, Li Wei, so such a good thing fell on Li Wei's head.
Walnut smiled: "If Miss Li can become the granddaughter of the old lady of the family, then she will fly on the branches, and the Li family is an authentic imperial businessman." β
Nie Shuyao said: "Not necessarily. Maybe Li Wei doesn't want to be this granddaughter at all, or maybe it's a cover to recognize her granddaughter at all. β
"Then, didn't Miss Li fall into someone else's trap?" Walnut immediately frowned. After all, she and Gui Yuan grew up in the Li family since childhood, and they still have feelings for Li Wei.
Nie Shuyao smiled: "What are you worried about? Li Wei is not weak, and this is a good opportunity for her. At that time, you will have another backer in the capital. β
"Hey, hey. Or the eldest lady is right, Guiyuan and I didn't expect this. β
Walnut smiled, after half a year of exercise, she became more calm. In time, he will be able to take charge of himself.
Nie Shuyao looked at them and smiled. Each of her four big girls has a lot of personality, and I hope they can all have a good home in the future.
The advantage of the horse-drawn carriage is that it can be turned on at any time to cook on a stove or other stove that the carriage carrys. Didn't stop except for the night stay. Maybe it has something to do with the fact that they just finished the New Year, but in short, they had a very smooth journey.
There are many people and cars, and I can't walk as fast as I imagined. After nearly a month of traveling, no one wanted to sit in a carriage anymore and run out as soon as they stopped.
The same goes for Nie Shuyao. She felt like vomiting when she saw the carriage, and she was fine when she went to Yangzhou. Every now and then stop somewhere for some time. But this time, except for eating and sleeping, and convenience, they never got out of the carriage.
It was nearly a month before they saw the capital.
At this time, the capital was called Beijing, but most people were used to calling it the capital. After the expansion of several generations of emperors after the Yongle Emperor, it has the style of a big city as an important place in Beijing.
It's mid-to-late February, and the weather is no longer so cold, but the north wind is still blowing. Looking at the tall city wall, Nie Shuyao was very excited, this is the capital of the Ming Dynasty, I don't know what kind of story she will experience here.
When approaching the capital, Qinglian Jushi pulled her into his car, and the two walked all the way and talked all the way, and the relationship between them became one step closer.
Qinglian Jushi looked at Nie Shuyao's excited appearance and felt very guilty in her heart, her daughter should have a better life.
Dongling, who was on the side, looked at her master like this, and hurriedly pulled her sleeve to remind.
Qinglian knew that he couldn't recognize her, and he couldn't recognize her even if he died, and now it was a blessing from God to be with his daughter.
Almost instantly, she adjusted her expression and asked, "Shu Yao, can you send a letter to Song Yunfei?" β
"Huh?" Nie Shuyao was stunned for a moment, slapped his forehead and said, "Oops, I forgot about it." β
Qinglian Jushi shook his head and said, "You, can you have some heart." β
Nie Shuyao smiled, "I've always been very caring." β
Seeing her little daughter, Qinglian couldn't help but touch her head and said, "I know you will forget, don't worry, the godmother has already sent a letter to that kid yesterday." β
Nie Shuyao blinked and said, "How did you send it?" β
She wondered, there was no phone at this time, but the master and servant of Qinglian were always with her, how could they send a letter.
"When you're asleep. Do you think I raise these pigeons for food? Qinglian said with a smile.
Nie Shuyao suddenly realized, in fact, she really thought it was food. When she doesn't reason, she sometimes makes such confusion.
Qinglian Jushi said again: "When I was in Qu County, Song Xiaozi knew that this pigeon was not simple, so you didn't care about what I raised?" β
There is a kind of care in the world called "deep love, deep responsibility"; There is also a kind of love called "jealousy", Qinglian Jushi doesn't know which kind she belongs to now, in short, it is sore and painful, and she is sad for Nie Shuyao's indifference.
Nie Shuyao slowly pursed her lips, she was so busy every day when she was in Qu County, how could she have time to care about this.
But she still fulfilled the little wish of Qinglian Jushi, took her hand and said, "Godmother, I know you don't blame me, right?" When we settle down in the capital, you can teach me how to use this pigeon, okay? It's convenient to use this message. β
"Well, good!"
As soon as Nie Shuyao was coquettish, Qinglian Jushi couldn't resist it at all, she said whatever she wanted, and the sadness in her heart drifted away like the wind.
Dongling on the side sighed in her heart, the eldest lady was completely pinched by the younger lady. However, she was also happy to see this, and a warm smile appeared on her round face as she watched the two of them say what they had said.
Dongling is no younger than Qinglian Jushi, and she was also married, but the man she married was not a good person, and she was almost sold. One day the man died in an accident, and she laughed for a long time.
thought that she would be alone from now on, but she was found by the eldest lady, and since then the two of them have been dependent on each other for so many years, and the relationship is very deep.
Not long after, Nie Shuyao heard the sound of horses' hooves outside, and heard Song Yunfei's cry from afar.
She frowned deeply, can this guy not be so high-profile, his name is "Shu Yao"!
Lifting the curtain, Nie Shuyao said outside: "Shut up for me!" β
Song Yunfei therefore knew which carriage Nie Shuyao was in, and when he came to the window, he first nodded to the Qinglian monk, and said with a smile: "Shuyao, you are here, I have arranged the accommodation." β
"What accommodation?" Nie Shuyao said angrily, glancing at him, I haven't seen him for a few months, this guy seems to have calmed down a lot.
Song Yunfei seemed to know that Nie Shuyao would think so, and a red glow floated on Jun's face, and he whispered: "Don't worry, this place is very well located in the capital." It's not far from my house, and the downstairs can also be used as an office, and there is a small garden in the backyard. β
Nie Shuyao knew that he had put a lot of effort into it, which saved him a lot of trouble, and said softly: "Thank you!" How much silver? I'll pay you when I go there, don't worry, I have the money. β
"No, not much silver. Let's talk about this later, let's go to the city first, it's not good if there are too many people in a while. As soon as Song Yunfei turned his horse's head, he slipped away in a blink of an eye.
Qinglian Jushi nodded slightly, and said to himself: "This kid is okay, and his family background is worthy of my daughter." It would be nice to be more calm. β
Nie Shuyao pouted again, daring to love Song Yunfei's change was the idea given by this one. said on his lips: "Godmother, I'm still young, don't let me marry at every turn." β
Qinglian lay monk's face sank and said, "Are you still young?" Are you almost seventeen years old? β
Isn't it a year older after the Chinese New Year, and after 16, you will run to 17. These words reminded Nie Shuyao of the vegetarian cat, and the little girl also said so.
"Xi'er has told me, he will discuss this matter with me, don't worry about it." Qinglian monk said again.
Nie Shuyao was stunned, what is the situation? Why did his younger brother also come to join in the fun, it seems that Xi'er is still young, does he understand this?
In the nagging of the Qinglian monks, the group entered the capital.
Under the leadership of Song Yunfei, the goalkeeper was quickly released. They entered through the south gate, passed through the tall doorway, and then several carriages merged into the bustling streets of the capital.
The south gate is commonly known as the front door, this area is a very prosperous commercial street, although it is still early, but there are already stall sellers and passers-by.
As soon as she entered the capital, the Qinglian monk stopped talking, and Nie Shuyao never opened the car curtain again, she knew the taboo of the Qinglian monk.
It took me about two quarters of an hour to reach my destination, a wide street called Fallen Leaf Street. It's very quiet, and the occasional passer-by seems to have an identity, not as mixed as a commercial street.
The house in front of me has a gatehouse, a two-story building. There were a few servants waiting there at the door, and when they saw Song Yunfei, they respectfully saluted him.
Song Yunfei said: "You move all the boxes and cages in the car to the backyard." β
"Yes, young master!"
Nie Shuyao and his party also got out of the carriage, and Song Yunfei stepped forward with a grin and said, "Shuyao, let's go in and have a look, that garden is not bad." β
Under his behalf, several people walked inside with their luggage.
Just then another carriage came from the street, and stopped as it passed. Nie Shuyao, who was just about to enter the door, felt a sharp gaze sweeping towards him.
When I looked up, the carriage started. Judging by its decoration, it should be a family with a head and a face, but Nie Shuyao doesn't understand, how could he be noticed by someone on the first day he entered the capital? (To be continued......) R1292
