Chapter 181: Rush back to your hometown
When he woke up in the morning, Tang Xun felt a person lying on his stomach, which made him jump. When I stretched out my hand and wanted to push it away, the tentacle was very soft, and I immediately remembered who was sleeping next to me.
Gently Tang Liuniang's hand was taken away, and Tang Xun quietly got up and got dressed.
"Fourth sister, why are you going?" Tang Liuniang woke up.
"Go to sword practice. I can't get up when I wake up. Tang Xun put on his shoes again.
"I can't get up, I'll sleep a little longer." Tang Liuniang was lying on the bed, motionless.
The sky is bright, and it is estimated that there is still more than half an hour before the sun comes out. Sleep, just sleep, Tang Xun didn't pay attention to her, took the sword and went out.
Waiting for Tang Xun to practice swords for half an hour, when he returned to the room when it was almost dawn, he saw that Tang Liuniang was still lying on the bed, sleeping deadly, and his sleeping posture had not changed at all.
Tang Xun stepped forward and lifted her quilt: "Liuniang, get up." ”
Tang Liuniang opened her eyes in shock, and when she saw that it was Tang Xun, she complained: "Fourth sister, I'm dreaming." ”
"What are you dreaming, get up quickly, it's dawn." Tang Xun saw that Liuniang woke up, so he turned around and went out of the room to fetch water and wash.
When I came back from fetching water, I glanced at the bed, and saw that Tang Liuniang was still lying, so I went over to reopen the quilt and urged: "Liuniang, the sun is coming out soon, hurry up." I'll go see my dad in a while. ”
Tang Liuniang sat up with her eyes half-open and muttered, "Got it." ”
As soon as Tang Xun turned around, she puffed, lay down softly and weakly, and lay down with her eyes closed, her head tilted to the side, revealing her snow-white pink neck.
Tang Xun was helpless, the little girl was such a human nature, he had to wash up first.
After washing her face slightly, Tang Xun returned to the bedside, and saw that Tang Liuniang was sleeping quietly, which was very different from last night's madness, she was a beautiful age, although she couldn't bear to wake her up, but she still pulled her up as soon as she reached out, and gently touched her chest with her hand, and said with a smile: "Liuniang, you have really grown up." ”
Tang Liuniang's chest was touched, as if she had been shocked, her eyes suddenly widened, her snow-white cheeks were instantly red, and she turned her head to stare at Tang Xun and said, "Fourth sister, you are not ashamed!" ”
Tang Xun smiled: "It's because you're not ashamed, right, you don't get dressed when it's dawn." ”
Tang Liuniang picked up her clothes angrily and put them on slowly, and muttered in her mouth: "I'm not ashamed, it's so big, and you still touch me." ”
Tang Xun smiled: "Who is not ashamed, don't rub it off, you see if the sun comes out." As he spoke, he picked up the clothes on the other side of the bed and threw them to her.
Tang Liuniang put on her clothes and washed her face, and listened to Tang Xun: "Liuniang, you have really grown up, the more you look at it, the better you look, I don't know which kid will be cheaper in the future." ”
Tang Liuniang said shyly: "How can there be." Suddenly, he looked around the room and said, "Fourth sister, you don't have a mirror in the house?" ”
Tang Xun smiled: "What do I want a mirror for?" ”
Tang Liuniang said: "How can you make up without a mirror?" ”
Tang Xun pointed to his hair and said with a smile: "A wooden comb is enough." Come, I'll comb your hair. As he spoke, he pulled Tang Liuniang to sit down, picked up a wooden comb and combed it carefully for her.
Tang Liuniang said: "Fourth sister, you have to comb my hair beautifully, just like when I was a child." ”
Tang Xun grabbed Liuniang's hair with one hand and combed it carefully with a wooden comb in the other, suddenly remembering that in the past, he secretly hid in the room and combed in the mirror, afraid of being discovered by his father, and closed the doors and windows. Later, I couldn't make up myself, so I combed Goro, Liulang, and Qilang, and combed them clean and beautiful every day, they were happy, and they were happy, and combing their hair was a rare happy time at that time.
A quarter of an hour later, Tang Xun put down the wooden comb and said with a smile: "Liuniang now looks like a beautiful country, everyone is beautiful, if you go to the street, I don't know how many men will be charmed." ”
When Tang Liuniang heard this, she turned around and asked, "Fourth sister, is it really?" Is it really that pretty? ”
Tang Xun took her hand and said with a smile: "If I were a man, after seeing you, I would definitely not marry you in this life." ”
Tang Liuniang's face blushed, and she said in a low voice: "What are you marrying, marrying, Liuniang is still young." ”
Tang Xun smiled: "It's not small, it's sixteen, it's time for you to set a family affair." ”
Tang Liuniang was shy, didn't answer, and suddenly said: "Let's go see Dad, after seeing Dad, accompany Liuniang to go out for a walk." After speaking, he pulled Tang Xun and left.
The two of them left the independent courtyard and went directly to his father's residence.
His father also got up early, was reading in the room, and when he saw Tang Xun and Liuniang entering the house, he slapped the book on the table with a "snap", and said angrily: "What kind of system!" ”
Frightened, Tang Liuniang quickly let go of Tang Xun's hand and lowered her head to avoid his father's gaze.
Tang Xun said respectfully: "Daddy is angry, Shiro knows that he is wrong." ”
Father Tang said: "Liulang, you stay in peace, don't go out casually." Shiro is now an official of the imperial court, and he has something to do, so don't follow him, cause him unnecessary trouble, and disturb his business. Do you hear me? ”
Tang Liuniang said in a low voice: "Yes, Liulang heard clearly." ”
Father Tang said: "If you hear it clearly, stay in the yard." Seeing that Tang Liuniang was respectful and respectful, and did not dare to be presumptuous, he came again: "Shiro, you will gradually get busy in the future, you don't have to come over early or late, and you can do your errands with peace of mind." If you can't keep busy, you are not useless as a father. ”
Tang Xun said: "Yes, Shiro will definitely do a good job." ”
Father Tang said: "Then you go, Liulang stays." ”
When Tang Xun turned around and left, Tang Liuniang was suddenly a little scared, and she didn't know where to stand.
Father Tang pointed at her and said, "How many times have I told you at home, don't look for Shiro, you just don't listen, do you know what Shiro is now?" Hui Yi supervised the deputy envoy and was an official of the imperial court! Keep a little distance from Shiro, if you pull and pull with him like this, if you are not careful, you will kill him and harm our Tang family! I'll go back tomorrow. ”
Tang Liuniang suddenly raised her head and said, "Dad, I walked for more than ten days before I came to Quanzhou, and I won't go back." ”
Father Tang said: "If you don't go back, then stay in the backyard and don't go anywhere!" ”
Tang Liuniang said: "If you don't go, you won't go, I'll suffocate in the yard." With that, he turned around and ran out.
"It's against you!" Seeing Tang Liuniang leaving, the angry Tang Father suddenly slapped the table, and after slapping the table, the rest was still helpless.
Tang Liuniang will marry out in two years, after all, he is not a member of the Tang family, as long as it does not affect Shiro, he doesn't want to bother with it so much, sooner or later he will be from another family, why bother. But Tang Liuniang's arrival made him very worried about Tang Xun's condition, if it affected Tang Xun's mind, it would be absolutely bad news for the Tang family. The safest thing to do is to send Liuniang back, and they will never see Tang Xun.
"Someone." Father Tang shouted.
After a while, an old servant came in and asked, "Master, what's the matter?" ”
Father Tang said: "You pack up and send Liulang back to Jianpu County immediately." ”
The old servant said: "Master, Liulang only came yesterday, and I want her to go back today, she will definitely make trouble, it is better to let her stay in Quanzhou for a few days, and she will definitely go back if she is bored." ”
Father Tang said: "No, I will have a lot of dreams at night, send her back now, it is not easy for Shiro to come all the way, and he must not be allowed to give up halfway." ”
The old servant knew that it would be useless to say anything more, so he said, "Okay, the old slave will go and clean it up." ”
Tang Liuniang returned to the backyard full of resentment, she couldn't eat breakfast, and before her anger subsided, she heard the old servant shouting outside the courtyard.
I don't know what he shouted, the old servant has been in the Tang family all his life, and he personally sent her to Quanzhou, and Tang Liuniang didn't care about it, so she got up and went out.
As soon as the old servant saw Tang Liuniang, he said: "Liulang, the old man asked the old slave to send you back to Jianpu County, it has been packed up, and you should hurry up and prepare to make preparations, so as not to make the old man angry." ”
When Tang Liuniang heard this, she immediately said hurriedly: "Why is my father like this, just now he didn't say that he could not leave the yard, but he changed his mind in a blink of an eye." ”
The old servant said: "That's what the old man told the old slave, no way, pack up and leave, the carriage is ready." ”
"No!" Tang Liuniang turned around and entered the courtyard angrily, closing the door and not leaving.
The old servant had no choice, he couldn't go into the backyard, so he could only go back and report to the master.
After Father Tang heard this, he carried a bamboo cane and went into the backyard, shouting, "Come out quickly, and please go in for your father." The bamboo cane in his hand crackled on the ground.
After a while, I saw Tang Liuniang holding the package, accompanied by the maid, walking out quickly, bypassing Tang's father and quickly leaving the yard.
The old servant said: "The old slave has gone back, take care of the master." ”
Father Tang said: "Don't delay on the road, send it back within half a month, and report to me when you get home." ”
The old servant said: "The old slave knows. After speaking, he left and went out with Tang Liuniang.
The carriage left the city and headed north.
"Rokuro, if the carriage is too fast and bumpy, you can talk about it, and the old slave will slow down."
"No, the sooner the better." Tang Liuniang sulked in the car.
I just met with the fourth sister, and I didn't have time to say a lot of words, so I was driven back. When I think of the rough skin on the fourth sister's hands, the face that does not match her age, and the hair that is combed up at will, especially the smile that the fourth sister has on her face all the time, I feel sad every time I think about it, and I can't help but moisten my eyes.
Is it worth it for the fourth sister to do this? Tang Liuniang didn't know, she had never asked, and she didn't dare to mention it in front of Tang Xun.
Whether it's worth it or not, maybe only Tang Xun himself knows.
Liuniang is gone.
When Tang Xun returned to Hui Yi Douzao at night, he didn't see Liuniang, so he knew that she should have been sent back. Since he left Jianpu County and came to Lin'an, he knew that he could not go back often, and his family would not come to see him. This time Liu Niang was able to come, it should be an accident.
After entering September, Quanzhou Bay was busy, every day there were five or six ships docked in three ports, sometimes there could be seven or eight, sometimes there were too many merchant ships entering Quanzhou Bay, it was difficult to enter the port for a while, and had to wait at the mouth of Quanzhou Bay.
Batches of Huiyi materials enter the port to unload, carry into storage, the whole port of people are getting busier and busier, sometimes from the edge of the sky, busy until the moon rises, everyone is busy, everyone is very happy, but as long as there is money to make, they don't care about anything.
Tang Xun ran back and forth in the shipyard, recruitment office, and port during the day, and checked the warehousing accounts of each port again and again at night, which merchant sent what goods, and how many goods were sent, all of which were checked again and again. Before the fleet goes to sea, the businessmen want to come to Quanzhou to confirm the final entry into force of the signed contract, which is related to the interests of every businessman, and must be cautious.
The ports of Quanzhou are in full swing, busy and abnormal, how is the Xuanwei Army in Mingzhou? Tang Xun also occasionally had thoughts in the dead of night.
