Chapter 422: Lin'an Reunion
When it was time to release the government again, Yang Congyi walked out of the gate of the front of the hall and ended the day's dry sitting.
The carriage that stopped not far from the door to pick him up quickly stepped forward, Miao Jiu said "Master", immediately put down the pedals, and held the horses pulling the cart steadily.
Yang Congyi didn't say anything, raised his foot and was about to board the carriage, when he suddenly heard someone next to him seem to call him, so he stopped.
"Lord Yang!"
When he turned his head, there were two people standing two feet away, their faces were very familiar, he recognized them at a glance, and immediately laughed loudly: "Brother Shen, Brother Jiang, why are you here?" ”
These two are Shen Jin and Jiang Kai, who came out of the teahouse after eating tea and came to try their luck in front of the palace.
As soon as they heard Yang Congyi's words, they didn't have the slightest sense of being born, so they immediately stepped forward quickly, came to within three feet, and saluted respectfully: "I've seen Lord Yang!" ”
Yang Congyi laughed and said, "Brother Shen, Brother Jiang, this is not in the Yamen, why do you have to make such a fuss." ”
Shen Jin said: "Lord Yang, although this is not in the yamen, but it is also in front of the yamen, don't dare to break the rules." ”
Jiang Kai said kindly: "Brother Shen is right, there should be no less rules. ”
Yang Congyi shook his head and smiled: "These rules are plain, and they make people separate." ”
Then he asked, "You two are waiting for me here?" ”
Jiang Kai said: "Sort of, we haven't seen each other for almost a year since we separated from adults last year. How are you doing? ”
Yang Congyi smiled: "Very good, what about Brother Jiang and Brother Shen?" How are you doing with this year's imperial examinations? ”
Jiang Kai said: "Since we came back last year, we have been preparing for the exam, and it has gone well. "The look is relaxed and casual.
Shen Jin continued: "Brother Jiang is the first in high school, and the younger brother is off the list." The expression was a little lonely and gloomy.
Yang Congyi immediately smiled and said, "Congratulations Brother Jiang, Imperial Examination High School!" When you have time, it's time to celebrate! ”
Then he said to Shen Jin: "Brother Shen doesn't have to be discouraged, sometimes the imperial examination is luck, you may be almost lucky, with your talent, if you don't get in the subject today, you can try again in the next subject, and after all, you will be like Brother Jiang in Jinbang High School!" ”
Shen Jin squeezed out some smiles on his face and replied: "Borrowing the auspicious words of the adult, you must prepare well in the next department and strive to be on the list." ”
"How did you two get here?" Yang Cong Yixin had doubts.
Jiang Kai said with a smile: "After separating from the adults last year, Brother Shen and I buried ourselves in preparing for the exam, and we didn't know where the adults were. Today we have just returned to Lin'an from Changguo, and we have nothing to do, so we came to try our luck and see if we could meet adults, but we didn't expect that we were really lucky, and we met adults as soon as we came! ”
Yang Congyi smiled: "I have only been back from other places for a few days, and I wanted to look for you when I was free, but I didn't want to be found by you first." Since we are here today, why don't we find a place to sit and have a drink or two? ”
Shen Jin and Jiang Kai glanced at each other, and then Shen Jin replied: "I'm afraid it's inconvenient today, Brother Jiang and I are still white, if you eat and drink in the same room with adults, I'm afraid that it will damage your official body, and it will also hurt your identity, so it's better to change the day, what do you think?" ”
As soon as he heard this, Yang Congyi suddenly came to his senses, he was dressed in official clothes and hats, and in front of the public, it would be indeed inappropriate to eat wine with two white bodies, so he smiled and said: "Okay, then another day, invite the two of you to eat wine another day." ”
Then he immediately asked, "Where do you two live now?" Leave me an address so that I can meet you again in a few days of rest. ”
Jiang Kai said with a smile: "Brother Shen and I only returned to Lin'an today, we haven't determined our place to live yet, I don't know where the adults live, and Brother Shen and I will go to find the adults another day." ”
Yang Congyi said with a smile: "I now live in a place five miles outside Lin'an City, if you go to find it, I'm afraid you won't be able to find it easily." ”
Shen Jin said: "Since this is the case, then Brother Jiang and I will temporarily stay at the Dongyue Inn in Dingminfang, and when the adults are free, we will send someone to the Dongyue Inn to inform us." ”
Yang Congyi smiled: "Okay, it's decided!" ”
Seeing that he had left the address, Jiang Kai smiled and said: "The west road of the city is far away, let's go back first, let's meet another day!" ”
Yang Congyi replied: "It's okay." Since you are going to Dingminfang, just drop by, get in the car together, and I will take you for a ride. ”
Jiang Kai hurriedly excused himself and said, "No need, my lord, let's go first, Brother Shen and I have been away from Lin'an for many days, and we still want to walk around." ”
Yang Congyi smiled: "Okay, then I'll go first, and I'll see you another day!" ”
After speaking, Chao Jiangkai and the two gave their hands separately, and the two hurriedly returned the salute.
Yang Congyi boarded the car and said, "Goodbye!" ”
In the response of Jiang Kai and the others, the wheels turned, and the carriage turned around and left.
The two stood still, no one spoke.
After a while, I only heard Jiang Kai say, "Brother Shen can you notice that Lord Yang has changed anything?" ”
Shen Jin thought about it, and after thinking about it, he replied: "The little brother didn't see any changes, it seems to be the same as before. Could it be that Brother Jiang saw the difference? ”
Jiang Kai shook his head and said: "I can't tell what the difference is, but I faintly feel that it is a little different from before, maybe I haven't seen it for a long time, and I am a little rusty." ”
Shen Jin said: "I think Lord Yang is still as approachable as before, and he doesn't have many official pretensions. ”
Jiang Kai said: "I agree with this. Speaking of Lord Yang, he is really extraordinary, three or four years ago, like us, he was a student with no merit, and in just a few years, he was transferred from the army to Lin'an as an officer, which is really unimaginable, I am afraid that it will be difficult to shoot the horse. ”
Shen Jin said: "Yes, I think that when I was debating in Taixue, Lord Yang was still a martial arts student who had only been in martial arts for one year, and I didn't want to have an official body in a few months, but now I have come to the front of the palace to serve as an official, which has to be admired." ”
"Okay, since Lord Yang treats me as before, I have time to get together with him more. In the past, Lord Yang didn't have many acquaintances in Lin'an, but now that he has only arrived in Lin'an, it is estimated that there will not be too much entertainment, you and I should seize the opportunity to walk around with him more, maybe we will be officials in the same dynasty in the future! Jiang Kai smiled as he spoke.
Shen Jin also smiled: "What Brother Jiang said is that if they are in Lin'an together in the future, it would be good to take care of each other." ”
The two laughed, walked away from the gate of the front of the palace, and walked towards the royal street.
Now that I'm back in Lin'an, it's time to take a look, or to take a look, anyway, I have nothing to do at the moment, and I have a lot of time to squander.
Soon after the two of them left, a man quietly followed from the side, like an ordinary pedestrian, and followed and monitored them within two feet of them.
When Yang Congyi returned home, it was not early or late, it was time for dinner.
When the meal was served, Lian'er set the dishes and chopsticks and stood aside, and Qingchen also stood at the table and did not sit down.
After washing up a little, Yang Congyi saw this posture, which was a little different from the past, and couldn't help asking: "Qingchen, what are you doing standing, hurry up and sit down to eat, I'm also hungry." ”
Qingchen said in a serious voice: "From today onwards, there must be rules in the family, and if my husband doesn't sit down, I can't sit down first." ”
Yang Cong Yiqi said: "What kind of rule is this?" There are just a few of us at home, and we have to do what we do. Hurry up and sit down to eat, and then talk about it when you're done. After saying that, he sat down, picked up the dishes and chopsticks, and began to eat.
As soon as I took a bite, I suddenly exclaimed: "Qingchen, your skills are getting better, this dish tastes better than before, and the method seems to be different." ”
Qingchen sat down, and when he heard this, he replied with a little loneliness on his face: "How can I have such a good craft, my husband will eat more if he likes it." ”
The chopsticks in Yang Congyi's hand kept coming, sending another dish to the entrance, and then said: "This dish is also good, the taste is very special." ”
After saying this, Fang recalled Qingchen's words, and then asked, "Didn't you make these dishes?" ”
Qingchen replied angrily: "When did my husband praise me for the dishes, this is not the new cook's cooking." ”
As soon as he heard this, Yang Congyi remembered the cook he had introduced to him before, and immediately asked, "Bai Erniang is here?" ”
Qingchen didn't reply, raised his chopsticks and took a bite of the dish, and then said, "Husband remembers Qing." ”
Yang Congyi smiled: "Of course, I want to get up early, the lady gets up early every day to cook, it's really fortunate, I told you before that I want to find the cook, haven't you always come, now it's okay, from tomorrow, the lady doesn't have to get up so early like me." Besides, now that Lin'an is here, how can the lady work roughly, cook and cook, don't touch it in the future. ”
After such an explanation, Qingchen did not answer, but his face improved significantly, showed a faint smile, and raised his chopsticks to give Yang Congyi a large chopstick dish.
Yang Congyi said: "This dish is really good, the lady can try it." As he spoke, he also cleaned up the dust.
"Husband, you eat more." Qingchen said, and gave him another chopstick dish.
Yang Congyi did not refuse, and ate as much as he wanted.
was eating, but suddenly saw Lian'er standing at the table, looking at the food on the table, and said busily: "What are you doing standing, sit down and eat." ”
Who knew that Lian'er didn't sit down as she said, but glanced at Qingchen.
Yang Congyi immediately asked, "Lady, what's the matter, what did she do wrong?" Even if you make a mistake, you can wait until you finish eating. ”
Qingchen replied: "In the past, there were only three of us in the family, and some rules could not be mentioned, but now that there are more people in the family, there should be no fewer rules." Lian'er is a girl, how can she sit on an equal footing with the master and eat at the same table, she has to wait for the master to finish the meal before eating. ”
Yang Congyi was suddenly a little speechless, and couldn't help asking, "Lady, where did you hear these miscellaneous rules?" ”
Qingchen Qi said: "It's been like this since ancient times, which girl can dine at the same table with the master?" ”
Seeing that the husband did not refute, he immediately said: "The rules are the rules, and the small family can not talk about it, but now that the husband is an official in Lin'an, the rules that should be talked about cannot be less, otherwise it will not sound good to spread out." ”
