Chapter 336: Memory
The prefect and his wife of Changde accompanied Liu Yong's family on Dongting Lake for a day, and arranged for Liu Yong to have dinner in the restaurant in the evening, and at the same time called some henchmen.
Liu Yong was a little reluctant to accept the prefect's hospitality. Because it was the best hospitality he'd ever received along the way. But Liu Yong also knew the prefect's intentions, if he wasn't a member of the Sanpin, and the emperor had to manage the royal bank, and he still had the soy sauce business full of the Great Song Dynasty, he wouldn't treat himself like this.
But Liu Yong is still grateful. The prefect, although he is credited to the side door, is still sincere to the Great Song Dynasty. Whenever he talked about Jin Guo and Jing Kang, he gritted his teeth and hated it.
However, this person, like Ouyang Song, is just a literati. In the Song Dynasty, there were too many such literati and writers who could only speak empty words and were full of grief and indignation, and there were fewer soldiers who could build an army and lead troops to fight. led to the weakness and incompetence of the Great Song Dynasty.
But history is like that, you unknowingly consume your life. Others are unconsciously transformed and powerful.
In order to express his gratitude to the prefect's banquet, Liu Yong gave the six varieties of soy sauce used by the emperor to the prefect's twelve jars. The prefect accepted with trepidation.
Next, Liu Yong is going to inspect the banks and sauce shops here.
Everything is working fine. The shopkeepers are also responsible and very capable, which makes Liu Yong feel very relieved. In a big place like Changde Mansion, there are soldiers at the door of the bank, which is also arranged by the prefect. The Royal Bank belongs to the imperial court, and it is related to the financial revenue of the imperial court, so there can be no sloppiness.
Liu Yong was relieved, feeling how wise he was in deciding to cooperate with the imperial court in the first place.
Liu Yong's family spent six days in Changde, except for Liu Yong's inspection of all aspects of business. The scenery here is beautiful, and it raises the interest of all the women.
On the day he left, the prefect led the officials of Changde to see Liu Yong, and of course the shopkeeper of the bank and the sauce shop.
Say goodbye to these people, and the trip begins again. Further west, you enter the mountains, and the scenery changes from beautiful to majestic.
The change in the landscape also changes the mood of travelers. Naturally it was a feeling of novelty. Although they had seen these mountains and rivers when they came to Lin'an, they were the same at one time and one time at a time.
And the one who feels the most different is Yingying.
On this day, Yingying accompanied her uncle to sit in the carriage and look at the scenery outside. I was passing by a big mountain.
Liu Yong said: "Yingying, do you remember when we came here that year? Where are you and Aunt Ouyang fluttering butterflies? As he spoke, Liu Yong pointed to a place full of wild flowers, "Yes, that's it." ”
Yingying looked over, but her memory was blurred.
"Uncle, I seem to have a little impression, but I still can't remember it." Yingying said.
"You were only seven years old then, and now you're thirteen. My Yingying has grown into a big girl. Liu Yong said as he stroked Yingying's head.
"Yes, uncle, Yingying has grown up, but uncle is not old!" Yingying looked at her uncle.
"Hey! In the blink of an eye, your uncle and I are almost thirty years old. Liu Yong is full of sighs about the years.
"Uncle, don't worry, when you get old, Yingying will be by your side every day to take care of you." Yingying said.
"Well, Yingying is a good niece and nephew of her uncle." Liu Yong looked at Yingying again, remembering the situation when he led her out of the Liu family's old mansion seven years ago with the steep spring cold. At that time, Yingying was very obedient. If you are tired, you don't say you're tired, and if you're hungry, you don't say you're hungry.
"Uncle, what do you want?" Yingying asked.
"Uncle, I remembered the time when I led you to Meizhou." Liu Yong said.
Yingying thought for a while and said, "Uncle, I still remember that." Yingying remembers that as soon as my uncle woke up, we were kicked out of the house by the villain of the motor, and he didn't let my mother and Yun'er's mother go. My uncle led me to Meizhou to find my aunt. On the way, my uncle also caught fish for me to grill and eat, and I met a person who was being chased and killed in the leather temple on the side of the road. ”
"Yes, it was Yingying who saved the person who was hunted down." Liu Yong interjected.
"But the man is still dead!" Yingying sighed.
"Huh? Yingying, how do you remember these so clearly? Liu Yong was a little puzzled.
"Hmm......" Yingying pondered for a moment, and then said, "That's because Yingying will never forget what her uncle and Yingying suffered together?" Actually, Yingying didn't feel how to suffer, she just missed her mother at that time, but she didn't want to tell her uncle. ”
"Well, Yingying, you're a good boy." Liu Yongzan said.
"Uncle, I still remember that we just came out of the broken temple in the morning, and the broken temple collapsed, it was really dangerous!" Yingying said.
"yes, it's scary to think about it now!" Liu Yong smiled self-deprecatingly.
"Uncle, we will be blessed if we don't die in a catastrophe." Yingying smiled.
"Well, you see, isn't the blessing coming now?" Liu Yong also smiled.
Yingying lay on Liu Yong's lap, and the uncle and nephew looked at the mountains outside the window. After a while, Yingying said again: "Uncle, I still remember that when we arrived in Meizhou City, we didn't find my aunt, but I was sad. ”
"Isn't it? At that time, you cried and cried and fell asleep. Liu Yong said with a smile.
"Later, my uncle took Yingying to set up a stall to buy rouge gouache." Yingying smiled.
"Do you remember that?" Liu Yong asked with a smile.
"Well, Yingying still remembers that you led me to the shop where you bought rouge gouache, and there were so many beautiful young ladies there!" Yingying said.
"Well, one of them is your little mother Ouyang." Liu Yong said with a smile.
Later, my uncle went to Western Xia. Actually, I wanted to go with my uncle at that time, but I also knew that my uncle couldn't take me there. Yingying said sensibly.
"Well, do you know how dangerous the road to Western Xia was, in addition to the wild beasts, we were almost killed by the bandits. But fortunately, I met you, Aunt Su. Liu Yong remembered the thrilling scene of Goosehead Mountain again.
Yingying thought for a while and asked, "Uncle, is this what people often say about Jiren's own natural appearance?" ”
Liu Yong smiled and said, "Maybe!" ”
"I think so." Yingying said affirmatively.
"By the way, Yingying, how are you practicing martial arts with your Aunt Su?" Liu Yong asked.
"Well, how can I say it, right now, five men can't beat me. I can jump on the four-metre-high roof. Yingying said.
"Oh, that Yingying is about to become a heroine!" Liu Yong praised.
"But I'm still a lot worse than Master." Yingying said modestly.
"Don't rush, take your time." I want to talk about "Song Gui of the Financial Empire" with more like-minded people, pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
