7. Seek a job for your husband
The two talked while walking, and after a while, they went around the back garden of the military mansion, and Gao Yue immediately said to Han Yu, in the middle of the afternoon, Bendao will not go back to the official residence of the building, just eat with his colleagues in the canteen here, don't leave if you retreat, accompany Bendao, "Your wife is entertained by A-Ni, no, cheap inside." Wait until tomorrow when you go back to Jiangdu County to prepare for the matter of painting the meridian realm, after all, it can't all depend on our military government patrol institute. ”
Han Yu hurriedly accepted it.
Then Gao Yue asked him, your sister-in-law and they all came to Jiangdu?
mentioned Han Yu's widowed sister-in-law, who immediately replied to Gao Yue very respectfully, coming, first from Xuanzhou to Jingkou, and then Guazhoudu.
"Okay, serve your sister-in-law wholeheartedly."
At this time, in the main bedroom of the official residence of the Jiedu envoy, Xue Tao sat on the bed, his eyes were red, he was holding a brocade handkerchief in his hand, and he was constantly wiping his tears.
Zhihui rode a little donkey and went out to see the profit-making business in Yangzhou City.
Cui Yunshao, Cui Yun and the sisters were at home, and when they saw Xue Tao crying non-stop, Yun Shao felt heartache, so he talked and communicated with her, and Yun He listened quietly on the side.
Originally, Xue Tao came to the city with her husband as a guest, but when she saw Yun Shao, she couldn't help it:
This married life is still beyond her expectations.
"You don't know how many people there are in their Han family...... Weiguo fairly settled Caizhou to sit in the east and west of Huainan, and even Xuanzhou was also comfortable, and he was favored by Weiguo Gong when he retreated, and he was able to go to this Jiangdu County as the county order, and there was 25,000 yuan per month, which was also good...... But since the month before last, his family's population in Xuanzhou has come in groups to retreat...... Of the three widowed sisters-in-law, two of them are still cousins, as well as brothers and nephews, large and small, with a total of 36 families...... How can I make enough money? At the end of the month, I looked at the jar without salt, the jar without rice, the box without money, the basket without cloth, and it was about to enter the winter, and there were several nephews and nieces who didn't even have pants, and they had to rely on me to Zhang Luo...... Now that he has retreated, he has exchanged letters with celebrities in Huainan, and he still likes relief when he encounters a need, and he really can't stand it. ”
Yun Shao gently hugged Xue Tao on his shoulders, and said, "Don't be sad, when Qingqing started as an official, the money was only six times...... At that time, the price of Chang'an City was still expensive, and a batch of silk cloth had to be sold for three or five times! ”
"Then sister, how did you survive?" Xue Tao asked.
Yun Shao tried hard to recall, saying that at that time, my father gave me fifty yuan of fat powder every month, and Zhi Hui took care of it, so I barely survived.
As a result, after Xue Tao heard this, he cried even more sadly.
Yunhe, who was beside him, sighed in his heart - although Xue Tao had lost his father and was alone, the good thing was that Xingyuan Mansion had an errand to do, and he could get a lot of materials every month, and his life was more than enough, and his sister still had a generous gift during the festival, and now that she is married to Han Yu, it is also equivalent to marrying the old Han family, in the face of so many trivial matters in life, how can she adapt to it for a while? Therefore, it is reasonable to be pessimistic and disappointed.
Yunhe has always been fast-talking, "Doesn't the Han family have a grange in Xuancheng?" ”
"What's the use of a grange...... His family is full of women and children, where can he run well, and now he heard that he has become a county order, so he simply abandoned the grange, and only thought of coming to Jiangdu County to retreat. ”
At this time, Yun He frowned, and said to Xue Tao Zhengse: "He Han Shilang didn't mention anything about being greedy?" ”
Xue Tao hurriedly defended that his husband was not good, but he would never do anything in this regard.
"That's good, let my brother-in-law find another position for Han Shilang in the Huifu (another name for the shogunate and the military government), and you can add thirty yuan per month." Yunhe is very decisive.
Xue Tao actually cried, but he also wanted to take the route of the Cui family's sisters, so that Gao Yue would know, so as to find a part-time job for Han Yue, the county order of the imperial court and the official of the military government, it is indeed a normal operation, which can more than double the money for a month.
Alas, for the sake of this family, she also showed her face.
But before Xue Tao could thank him, Yun He said: "But this official is not easy to do, everything in the military government has to be done, not only to push the prison lawsuit, but also to take charge of the book, send envoys to travel, and even have to manage incense affairs (religious affairs), and assist in state and county affairs, which is the most complicated." "All in all, this military government official is a panacea," Han Shilang should hate the shogunate, Hong Du, you have to ask him what he thinks. ”
"I have a way to deal with it." Xue Tao is very confident.
The three women talked in detail about their confidants, and then Yun Shao said that they were going to the kitchen to arrange food and entertain Xue Tao.
Then Yun He and Xue Tao stood in the corridor and continued to talk.
At this time, Yunhe pointed out more ways to make money to Xue Tao: "Han Shilang can write an article recently? ”
"It's written, but it's mostly articles about miscellaneous games, and when the county is in order, I often deal with some people in the market and write articles on their topics."
"Tell him to write an epitaph and earn a pen."
"No, most of the people who wrote the epitaph were official eunuchs, otherwise the money for moistening the pen was too small, and this group of people only looked for high-grade generous strokes, and the official rank was far from meeting the requirements."
Yun He thought that Xue Tao said the same, and then she stared at Xue Tao with a pair of wonderful eyes, and asked her while her sister was away, "Hong Du, have you written an article about your brother-in-law and Wei Jiannan (Gao) and Zheng Lianshuai (絪)?" ”
Hearing this, Xue Tao hurriedly covered his small nose, trying to prevent the blood from flowing out, and was very frightened under the forced gaze of Yun He's eyes, and could only snort like mosquitoes, "It's just a game, a game ......"
"In the future, if you pretend to be a character and write this kind of article, I will ask Zhihui to collect it on her behalf, and then hand it over to Cailuan Ashi to engrave it, and pay you ten yuan for every thousand words, if you write a long compilation of five thousand words, it will be fifty yuan, and Fu Zi will print a thousand volumes, which is fifty yuan, which is enough to subsidize the family."
At this moment, Xue Tao saw that in the courtyard, Wu Cailuan, who was combing his balls, was dusting with a whisk, and the frosting Bi Luo who was jumping around was fighting and playing dusty, and he had not returned to his hometown yet.
"Then I'll give it a try...... If you sell less than 1,000 volumes......"
"It doesn't matter, if you owe anything, it's only on me. If there is a profit, I also have a share of the profit. In addition, you can write three normal variations and legends, and then clip one to act as a profit market. Cui Yunhe replied very seriously, and then she pointed at Xue Tao very seriously, warning that it is not allowed to write about my brother-in-law, Wei Gao and Zheng Qi anymore, there are many changes in the text of Cailuan Ashi, where do you go to draw inspiration.
Xue Tao only looked at his head......
At this moment, when they were eating under the corridor of the military mansion, Han Yu and Gao Yue were talking about the topic between men, where did Han Yu have family troubles? He only said to Gao Yue that although he had only been in Yangzhou in Huainan for two or three months, he had already met two like-minded friends through his articles, one was from Huzhou and Mengjiao, and the other was from Hezhou and Zhang Ji.
Gao Yue smiled and put down the food chopstick, and asked these two friends, how did they "like-minded" with you?
"Meng Dongye is withdrawn and has the same personality as me; Zhang Wenchang's study of the Buddha is similar to my Tao. ”
"Then these two haven't been admitted to the Jinshi yet, right?"
As soon as Han Yu heard Gao Yue ask this, he immediately said no, no, I hope that Wei Gong can become their Bole.
