Chapter 332: I Can't Find Anyone
Pei Jing learned that Yu Shu did not pass the first subject, so he sent someone to bring a letter that night, comforting words, and came to the door early the next morning, bringing together in addition to a good horse that had been promised to Yu Shu, there was also a cart of civil engineering, and two masons, which came to build a stable.
Pei Jing's arrival, I have to say that the clouds in Yu Shu's heart dispelled a little, around Pei Jing held the dark red high-headed horse around a few times, touched here, brushed there, this horse is also good-tempered, seeing that she is a living person, just "bang" two snorts, uncomfortably shaking her head, but there is no stumbling, by her up and down.
He Fangzhi, who went out late today, was also on the side, and Zhao Hui was afraid that the horse would be frightened, so she didn't come out in the backyard.
Pei Jing smiled and preached to Yu Shu on the side: "This is an excellent Dawan horse with a Guinan mare, which has been domesticated in the northern horse farm for five years, and was originally used as a war horse for the imperial court." But the horse farm is not well managed, these two years are tight, so I selected a batch of takeaways, just by our Taiheng Chamber of Commerce in the match, so I ordered, I like it, I keep a horse, and a horse with a docile temper to Xiaoyu, see whether it is a saddle to ride, or on the sleeve to pull the carriage are made. ”
Before Yu Shu could say anything, He Fangzhi spoke first: "Tell my brother-in-law to break the fee, this horse is a good horse, and it will inevitably be buried when it is used to pull the cart. ”
Pei Jing nodded, and went to look at Yu Shu again, with a kind expression, "Wait for the weather to be warmer, find two escorts, and go out with you for a few laps, and you will be able to ride soon." ”
Yu Shu was thinking about having such a good horse as a car, in her lifetime, let alone the top of the car with four circles, after receiving such a big gift from Pei Jing, although it was her own relative, she would still be embarrassed, so she touched the shiny oily hair on the back of the horse, and said to Pei Jing:
"Let my uncle break the bank again."
Pei Jingha smiled. Reaching out and touching her head very naturally, he said, "What's the matter, my uncle only has a girl under his knees, and his body is delicate." If you don't have children in the future, you and Xiao Xiu will need to support the elderly in the end. ”
Yu Shu looked at Pei Jing with a sigh on his face, it didn't seem like a joke, and he didn't know where he got his emotion for a while, although Pei Jing was over forty years old, he was in good health, and Mrs. Qin was younger than him. I can have a son in a few years, so I'm afraid that there will be no successor.
Although she was suspicious in her heart, she didn't show it on her face, but just followed Pei Jing's words and said: "Uncle and father are elders, and I and Xiao Xiu will be offerings in the future." ”
Seeing her attitude, Pei Jing and He Fangzhi were very optimistic, nodded with a smile, and went into the inner hall to talk. Leave her in the yard to get close to the horse.
Yu Shu was leaning her neck to smooth the hair of the new resident when she heard someone calling her.
"Miss."
Yu Shu turned his face and saw Bai Ran walking across the courtyard gate. Standing not far away, he said: "The young master heard that Master Pei was coming, and he wanted to come out to meet him, and let the little one come and ask." ”
Yu Shu couldn't guess Yu Xiaoxiu's thoughts, what did he say to meet Pei Jing, I am afraid that he heard about this horse and wanted to run out to take a look, thinking that his injury had not healed, so he shook his head and said:
"My father instructed him, he still can't eat the wind these days," after speaking, he was afraid that Yu Xiaoxiu would be disappointed. Touching the soft hair in his hand, he said with a smile: "You go, tell Xiao Xiu that Uncle sent a horse, and I will lead it to the backyard later, and let him go to the window to watch." ”
Bai Ran obeyed, and returned to the room to relay Yu Shu's words to Yu Shu. Although Yu Xiaoxiu failed to get out of the house, he still happily added a piece of clothing, leaned to the window, and after a while, he saw Yu Shu approaching with a tall red horse, so he was not happy.
He studied in Baichuan Academy, and there were several classes in a month that were riding and archery, and he saw that some young masters had brought their own horses, so he was not envious, but he could only take turns with a few concubines who were not very popular at home to replace the two old horses that could not run fast in the riding school.
Last time, Brother Xue took him to the racecourse to have a good time, and he still thinks about it, Xue Rui promised him to wait for the spring to take him there, but unfortunately he didn't have any interest, and he was hurt by Xue Wenzhe's little white face and fell his head, so he could only recuperate in the house, which was really aggrieved.
Now it's okay, Uncle Pei gave his sister a horse, and when he recovers from his injury, he will have a horse to ride, Yu Xiaoxiu thought beautifully.
In this child's heart, he never thought of separating you and me with Yu Shu, the two sisters and brothers depend on each other, and there is no closer one in this world.
"Sister, when our injuries are healed, I will teach you to ride a horse." Yu Xiaoxiu said coaxingly.
"Cut, I need you to teach, just your two little short legs, not as long as my arms, let's grow for another two years." Yu Shu hit his younger brother mercilessly.
"You, you look down on me, Brother Xue said that I rode very well, don't believe you to ask him!" Yu Xiaoxiu blushed and argued.
"People are saying polite things, and you believe it."
The sisters and brothers were idle and had a toothache, raising the bar in a room and outside the house, Bai Ran watched them noisy and noisy from the side, but in fact they were intimate, and they were envious in their hearts, and they couldn't help but feel bitter for their own life experience, if there was no family ruin, he would still be the little son of the Bai family at this time, not a slave, even if he continued to endure his stepmother's harshness, he was willing.
***
Because of Pei Jing's arrival, Yu Shu originally wanted to go to Xue Rui to verify Qu Hai's affairs, but he could only postpone it for a day.
On the sixth day of junior high school, she went to the Wangji Building, thinking that she could meet Xue Rui and talk about business, but she waited there for a day, but no one came, and asked Lin Fu, saying that the eldest prince had not shown up for a few days, so Yu Shu left a message and asked him to see Xue Rui and tell him, so he went back.
The next day, I went to the Forgotten Machine Building to wait, but I still pounced, and I came back on the third day, but I still haven't heard of Xue Rui coming.
This made Yu Shu depressed, his feet were spinning in place, and he didn't know where to go to find Xue Rui's people for a while.
Only then did she suddenly feel that it seemed that Xue Rui was looking for her every time, even if she didn't look for it, she could always meet him, and this seemed to be the first time she took the initiative to find him.
What should I do, except for the forgetting machine building, she doesn't know where he likes to go on weekdays, should she let her go to the gate of Dali Temple to squat and wait for him?
It's not impossible, it's just that she doesn't know if he walks from the front door or the back door, when he will rest, and what to do if he pounces on the blank, seeing that it will be February 13 in a few days, and if she doesn't figure out Qu Hai's affairs, she is worried.
This is Yu Shu's smart people are confused, and they don't want to find Xue Rui in addition to Wangji Tower and Dali Temple.
Lin Fu saw that Yu Shu had not waited for anyone for three days, and guessed that she was in trouble, and at dusk he saw Yu Shu coming down from the stairs with a sad face, so he leaned over to offer advice:
"The girl is looking for the eldest son, if there is an emergency, why don't you go to the Xue Mansion to find someone, even if the eldest prince is busy with official business, he always has to go home to sleep."
Wake up the dreamer with a word, Yu Shu slapped his head and scolded himself for being dizzy, and immediately praised Lin Fu for two sentences and left.
Knowing where to find someone, Yu Shu was not in a hurry to come to the door now, it was too late at this time, a high gate like Shangshu Mansion, she came to the door at this moment, it was disrespectful. Second, although she recognized Xue Rui as her eldest brother, she had never met the Xue family, which was not official, and she might not be able to see anyone when she came to find someone else's young master with such a big girl's family, and she might not be able to get into trouble with Xue Rui.
Saying that, Yu Shu returned home, washed and slept, and the next morning, he found the long shirt and short coat in the cabinet, changed into a man's clothes, dressed up in spirit, and wrote a post seriously, and then found his way to Xue's mansion.
***
Xue Lao Shangshu is a minister, when Jingzong was in power, he was already the minister of Wenyuan Pavilion, and later succeeded to the throne, and also inherited a cadre of the emperor's courtiers, appreciating Xue Lingnan's prudence and governance, so he relied on it, appointed him as the post of introspective Shangshu, cited as the right minister, and promoted Xue as a concubine, giving great glory.
Shangshu Mansion has been built for some years, and it has been renovated several times in the middle, the outside does not look like the house style of those who suddenly rose to feats, but there is only a gate in front of the main gate, a pair of stone lions, there is not even a corner door on the side, a plaque on the door, the word "Xue Mansion", the wind and sun have been exposed to these years, after the wind and frost, but it has not been changed, this plaque, it is scrubbed spotlessly, there is no gold and silver, but the carriage and horse that pass before hitting the door, see this plaque, few do not bow their heads.
The servants of the six dynasties, several generations of loyal ministers, how can those upstarts with shallow families be compared.
Yu Shu got off the sedan chair on the street, inquired about the Xue Mansion in front of him, walked to the door, recognized the words on the door, and then stepped forward to knock on the door, handed the post, and asked to see the eldest son of the Xue family.
Yu Shu cleverly didn't write about the relationship between brother and sister on the post, claiming to be Xue Rui's friend, he came to the door today to discuss something, if the eldest prince is at home, please see it, if he is not at home, please pass on the word on his behalf.
The concierge of the Xue family didn't have any face, and the doorkeeper saw that Yu Shu was dressed as a guest, so he politely told her: "The eldest young master just went out, there are rules in our house, and the people in the family are not allowed to talk for the master, nor can they tell outsiders where the master is going, if this son has something, he might as well come back tomorrow." ”
When Yu Shu heard this, he regretted that he didn't come to block people earlier, and seeing that he couldn't ask where Xue Rui was from the porter, he reluctantly nodded, with a worried face, and turned to leave.
Walking on the road, I thought to myself that it is not a matter to drag on such a day for a day, Qu Hai is still locked up on Huixing Street, he can't just let it go, he has a lot of dreams at night, since he can't find Xue Rui for a while, it is better to ask first, at most, it is not good to force Qu Hai to tell the truth.
Thinking so, Yu Shu quickened her pace, and she didn't know that not long after she left, a person she knew came out of the gate of Xue Mansion.
Lao Cui went out to do errands, passed by the gatehouse, greeted him with a smile on the door, and said that there was a person who came to meet the eldest prince just now, Lao Cui asked casually, as soon as he heard the surname "Yu", he stopped his steps, and suspiciously asked Yu Shu to leave the post to see, seeing the word "Yu Shu", the heart was really Yu Shu, and quickly asked the porter two sentences, it seemed that there was an emergency, he knew that Yu Shu had not been long gone, and he was busy chasing after him, but he didn't catch up with someone.
