When Jia Qiang returned from abroad, it was past her childhood.

Although they have only been separated for less than five days, Qi Yun sees him as if he has met an old acquaintance in a foreign country, and he looks like he is reunited after a long absence.

He also brought many practical gifts and many precious medicinal materials to Liu Laoshi's family.

The two talked for nearly two hours before they broke up.

At this time, Lin Ruhai and Aunt Mei had already rested, and when Jia Qiang came to Qingzhu Garden, she only planned to take a look and leave.

Unexpectedly, a lonely lamp could be seen in the distance, and under the dimming of the lamp, it seemed like a lonely shadow pitiful......

The vigil mother naturally didn't dare to stop him, but Jia Qiang couldn't enter by herself.

There is no impermeable wall in the world, not to mention that the servants and maids of the Lin family can still help him hide from Lin Ruhai and Aunt Mei?

Lin Ruhai trusts him, so he never mentions these details on weekdays, but Jia Qiang understands that Lin Ruhai never wants to hear the news that he entered Daiyu's boudoir late at night.

In this world, before the daughter's family leaves the cabinet, reputation is more important than life.

Jia Qiang can't live up to Lin Ruhai's trust......

"Uncle, do you want the slave to go in and tell the girl, and say that the uncle is back?"

The vigil laughed.

Jia Qiang smiled, shook her head and said, "No need. ”

Fortunately, he was prepared, and when he came back, he first went to the East Road Courtyard to get something......

With that, he took out a flute from his waist and blew it gently.

The tune is the song "Past and Present Life"......

The quiet sound of the flute spread in the quiet cold night, drifting to the lone lamp......

In Daiyu's boudoir, Zijuan was yawning again and again, looking at Daiyu who was still writing by the window, and persuaded: "Good girl, rest early." In Yangzhou, I finally developed the habit of going to bed on time, and now that I have returned to Beijing, why did I start to stay up late again? ”

Because of the warmth in the room, Daiyu, who was only wearing an apricot yellow satin round-necked cardigan, did not raise her head, and said with a chuckle: "You sleep with yours, what do you do with me?" ”

Zijuan said helplessly: "It's not easy to get a better body, and if you are ruthless, how can you have to make up for the loss?" Moreover, even if the girl doesn't think about herself, she thinks more about others. ”

Daiyu said with a smile: "I don't think about myself anymore, is it possible to think about you?" ”

Zijuan was angry: "I once said that I thought about it, I mean think about it for the second master!" ”

Dai Yuqiao's face turned red and scolded: "If the little hooves are sleepy, go to sleep, what are you doing here?" ”

Zijuan really fell on the bed, but she was reluctant to close her eyes, pursed her lips and smiled: "Who can think of it, who can think of it...... However, it is indeed thanks to Second Master Lian. It's no wonder that he wanted to write the story of the thousand-year-old snake demon Bai Suzhen who repaid his kindness and married Xu Xian, and asked the girl to write it, and gave birth to Xu Shilin together......"

"What am I arranging here, I have your rotten mouth, and you are not restless at night?"

Daiyu couldn't help the heat on her face, and she couldn't listen to it and interrupted.

Zijuan was about to laugh and say something, when suddenly, a clear flute sound faintly came from outside.

She looked stunned, then her sleepiness dissipated instantly, and she quickly sat up from the bed, and saw Daiyu shrouded in the halo of candlelight, with a look of joy and tears on her face, biting her thin lips lightly, and her starry eyes were as tender as water......

Seeing this scene, Zijuan completely understood in her heart that from now on, this would be the case......

……

Early the next morning.

Qingzhu Garden.

Early in the morning, after morning exercise and washing, Jia Qiang came to the side hall with the sleepy-eyed Xiangling, and at this time the grandmother in the kitchen had already prepared breakfast and sent it up.

It is worth mentioning that the Lin family is now in charge of everything in the kitchen, and it is Xiangling's mother Feng's family.

Feng personally brought a grandmother to bring breakfast with a food box, and saw his daughter Jiaohan pillow on Jia Qiang's arm, waiting for breakfast with one eye open, and continuing to sleep with one eye closed.

Jia Qiang didn't stop her, wouldn't it be a happy thing to have a mother in front of her?

It wasn't until Daiyu brought Zijuan and Snow Goose to breakfast that Feng left with a smile.

After Daiyu arrived, she saw Jia Qiang eating meat buns with side dishes, her eyes were full of morning dew, she looked at him with a smile, and asked, "Yesterday, when did you come back?" ”

After Jia Qiang swallowed the food in her mouth, she shook her head and smiled: "I can't remember, it's too late......"

Zijuan said with a smile while giving Daiyu milk on the side: "The second master laughed again, yesterday a girl waited for so long, and it was almost over, and she heard you play the flute outside, and then fell asleep......"

Daiyu was simply surprised: "Am I waiting for someone?" I don't know that, you're crazy! ”

Jia Qiang smiled and didn't speak, but the smile was a little rippling and proud, which made Daiyu glare in shame, and then he said, "When will those guests from Xifu come today?" ”

Daiyu snorted, took a bite of the egg white, and said casually, "Who knows?" They are all their own sisters, come and visit to recognize the door, why bother? ”

Jia Qiang believed in a ghost, but nodded again and again on her face: "Extremely yes, so it seems that I am inferior." Yesterday, I met Qi Yun, and I knew that he asked people to use ice, and specially transported a boat of fresh fruits and vegetables from Jiangnan into Beijing. I originally wanted to add a little color to Aunt Lin's host, but now that I think about it, why bother, wouldn't it be a foreign way to do this? I'll keep it slowly and eat it with Xiangling. ”

The smile on Daiyu's face also disappeared without a trace, and she only took a pair of bright eyes full of spiritual beauty, and stared at someone without saying a word.

Outrageous!

When I first lived in Jia's house, I saw someone taking the things of the family, buying people's hearts and currying favor with the elders on the left and the right host.

Hmph, now that my family has also come to Beijing, I naturally have to invite a host!

Others have a brother to help, but I don't have a brother, but can't you be more well-behaved, Brother Qiang?

If it's busy, it's just that, and I can't bear to bother with such a trivial matter.

But since you have good things, and you obviously put your heart into it, this son will come to play tricks on people again......

Not a good guy!

Jia Qiang didn't seem to notice this heartfelt voice, Gu Zi feasted happily, and after eating half a table of breakfast, she stood up, looked at Daiyu, who was obviously a little annoyed, and grinned.

Then I heard Jia Qiang laugh softly: "I'm going on a business trip, try to come back as early as noon." However, someone has already been sent to keep an eye on the docks. As soon as the things arrive, they will be picked up and delivered, without delaying your host. ”

When Daiyu heard this, she pursed her lips and smiled, knowing that Jia Qiang was deliberately teasing, so she didn't give him a bad look.

After receiving two delicate eyes, Jia Qiang was in a happy mood, laughed, and turned to leave.

Today is his first day on an errand, and he is absent from work......

……

Shenjing East City, Longfusi Street.

Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, East City Yamen.

When Jia Qiang took Gao Long, Shang Zhuo, and two and six disciples to the yamen on horseback, she saw a slightly dilapidated gatehouse, and four or five men in tattered clothes were sitting on the benches under the gatehouse, lazily basking in the sun, and there was a sentence without saying a word.

Glimpsing the arrival of Jia Qiang and his party, these four or five people didn't even stand up, but stopped talking......

Jia Qiang smiled when she saw it, took the eight people behind her, and went straight to the yamen.

However, what happened next was beyond his expectations......

"It's the new conductor?"

A middle-aged man in the door asked.

Jia Qiang didn't say anything, only nodded.

Then, the four or five men actually knelt on the ground and bowed, not only bowing, but also crying:

"The master is here!"

"We're saved!"

"The old man is good, let's pay some money!"

"I'm starving!"

"Go beg for food!"

What is a veteran oil?

Nothing more than that.

Jia Qiang saw that a pair of dirty black oil hands were actually about to grab him on the legs, and before he could make a move, Gao Long stepped forward and kicked the person away.

When the door was kicked open, he began to cry out loudly:

"Ouch! Commander, the little one is wrong, and the little one doesn't dare to ask for money anymore! ”

The others also fell to the ground and wailed:

"Don't fight, sir, the little ones don't dare anymore!"

"My lord spares his life!"

Along with this cry, the people inside seemed to finally hear the movement, and twenty or thirty people poured out of their brains.

The first four people, wearing the seven-grade military attache complement suit, saw the door lying on the ground, and then heard their begging for mercy, the first one had tears in his eyes, and said to Jia Qiang: "Adults, it's not easy for the little ones!" They haven't been paid for more than a year, so why bother for them? ”

"My lord, the big guy just knew that the new commander is the lord of Ning Guofu, or a good minister appointed by the emperor, just begging the lord to get the salary back, why should the lord be ruthless?"

Jia Qiang didn't even have the mind to argue, her eyes fell on the first four military attachés, and asked, "Which one is He Jian?" ”

He Jian, who was the previous commander of the East City of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, was found because he wanted to make room for Jia Qiang, so he was demoted to a half-level official, commanded by the sixth grade, and demoted to the deputy commander of the seventh grade.

When a tall and thin man at the head arched his hand without smiling, he said: "Lord Jia, the next official is." ”

Jia Qiang nodded and asked, "The official seal of this official is still in your hand?" ”

Hearing this, He Jian twitched the corners of his mouth and smiled: "My lord, let's solve the matter in front of you first, the brothers have been hungry for more than a year, and if they don't pay money, there will be chaos." ”

Jia Qiang shook her head and said: "I will take care of the matter of the silver, and within three days, the official will solve this difficulty......"

"Within three days, the adults will laugh and ......"

Before He Jian finished speaking, he heard Jia Qiang shout: "Presumptuous! What kind of thing are you, and you deserve to laugh with this official? Hand over the official seal, it's not for you to take now!" ”

When He Jian heard this, his face suddenly turned red, and the gaze in his eyes became fierce.

How can the head of this bowl of rice be a good person?

It's just that Gao Long behind Jia Qiang stepped forward, grabbed his arm before he didn't react at all, and shouted: "Do you want to rebel?" ”

He Jian can sit in this position for so many years, and he has been obedient to the Dongcheng Terracotta Division, and the major gangs in Dongcheng have also given him three points of thin noodles, of course he will not be a soft bone, but today he still chose to back down.

Without him, the person in front of him is too big to provoke.

Some of the relationships behind Jia Qiang, not to mention that he can't be provoked on the bright side, even the people behind him will definitely not be provoked!

But it doesn't matter, the days are still long, the bright ones are not good, and there are still dark ones.

Sooner or later, he will let Jia Qiang know whose Dongcheng is this Dongcheng!

After handing over the official seal, the smile on He Jian's face disappeared, and he reminded Jia Qiang: "I hope that the adults can do what they say, and within three days, help us hundreds of brothers to get back the money." If you can really get it back, more than 400 brothers of the Soldiers and Horses of the Xiaguan Generation, thank you for your great kindness! ”

Of course, he knew in his heart that he would not be able to get back this salary.

The eight hundred serious Beijing officials in Beijing can't get all the official salaries, let alone these people?

But as long as he can't get it, Jia Qiang doesn't want to sit in the position of commander of the Dongcheng Soldiers and Horses Division anymore, and his prestige will inevitably be lost.

Later, he would let people make a big deal about the new commander to ask for money for his brothers.

I can't ask for it after three days, hey!

Of course, if you can get it, it will be even better.

Then the adult behind him has to reward him a lot and let him be promoted and make a fortune!

Looking at the back of Jia Qiang and the people disappearing at the end of the street, He Jian spat fiercely on the ground:

"Phew!"

……

PS: To be reasonable, I think the state of two shifts a day is the most comfortable, not loose or tight, and finish the work relaxed, right?
