198. Wei Yuanwei
Five days later, Wei Yuanwei was already in front of him. Outside the Acropolis, there were many Han people who returned to the Ming Dynasty from all over the Tumo River, tents, cattle and sheep, and carriages, bustling like a certain large tribe of Tatars.
The Ming Dynasty has always been very lenient towards Han people returning from Tatar, and they hardly check when they enter the border guards, as long as they don't look too much like Mongolians. But if you want to enter Daming from the guard, it is not so easy.
It may be that because Altan Khan hunted down the Han Chinese, the population of Weiyuanwei was much larger than usual. Nangong Jin had already held Cheng Rui in his arms, handed him the reins, and let him learn to drive. At the same time, he also coaxed Chengjun out and sat on the wheel.
In the carriage, Nangong Jin explained that after the children went home, they couldn't say anything about what happened in Tumochuan. Cheng Rui didn't understand, frowned and kept asking if grandpa, grandma, father, and mother couldn't say? Nangong Jin nodded and told them that this was a secret that belonged to the three of them. So, the three of them solemnly high-fived as an oath
Qiu Niang rushed forward and asked with a smile: "Hey, how are you?" Shu Han and me. Would you like to come with me to live in my old friend's place? ”
"Do you want money? It doesn't cost anything, of course it's good. Nangong Jin also replied with a smile.
Qiu Niang laughed, "I just like your stinginess, you are so poor and poor." ”
As he was talking, suddenly more than a dozen young men in uniform clothes stopped Nangong Jin's carriage one foot away in front of the car, and the person at the head saluted Nangong Jin and said, "Second Young Master, my subordinates have been waiting here for a long time. ”
The ornaments on each person's placket have long indicated their identity. Nangong Jin frowned, didn't want to admit it, and smiled: "You recognize the wrong person, right?" ”
The leader still replied respectfully: "My subordinates saw the second young master on the day of Madame's birthday. ”
Many people around seemed to have the intention of stopping and watching, and Nangong Jin had no choice but to say, "Okay." There are a lot of people, don't get in the way. ”
"Yes." With a wave of his hand, more than a dozen people behind him saluted Nangong Jin and quickly dispersed, leaving only three people standing by Nangong Jin's carriage with their hands down, waiting for the dispatch.
Qiu Niang looked at Nangong Jin in surprise, and immediately said to Nangong Jin: "This son, Wei Yuanwei has arrived, so you shouldn't have to lead the way anymore." The concubine still has important matters, so she will leave first. ”
Nangong Jin also owed a debt very politely, "Thank you Madame for taking care of you all the way, there will be a period later." ”
The two of them were so contrived that the two children were stunned. Cheng Rui still waved his hand, "Goodbye, sister." ”
Qiu Niang grimaced at him and waved her hand, and left with a smile.
Nangong Jin got out of the car and asked with a smile: "What do you call it?" ”
The person at the head gave another salute, "Under the Thousand Miles Hall, Tang Ye." ”
"How do you know I'm going here?" Nangong Jin was puzzled.
"The subordinates don't know. It's just that in the places where David and the customs are entered, since the beginning of the year, there have been people from the four halls stationed to wait for the second young master. The subordinates have now sent someone to inform the eldest young master, and the eldest young master should arrive in one or two hours. Tang Ye replied respectfully.
Nangong Jin looked at the two children and nodded, "Okay." I have someone here who is seriously injured, can you find a quiet place? ”
"Second Young Master, please come down with your subordinates." Behind Tang Ye, the two congregants stepped forward to catch the car.
"Ah Jin, Ah Jin," Du Ling poked his head out of the carriage.
"What's wrong?" Nangong Jin walked up to him.
"Can you not stop Wei Yuanwei?" Du Ling was embarrassed and said, "Pay ......." Looking at the people around her, "She'd better not move anymore." Now that she is still holding on, can she go back to the banker's castle directly? ”
"It's more convenient to have a document to go out of Wei Yuanwei, but if you don't have a paperwork, ......." Nangong Jin looked at Tang Ye in embarrassment, "Mr. Tang, is there a way to get out quickly?" ”
"It will take an hour or two at the earliest. I'm afraid it's late, and sleeping in the open is more troublesome, why don't you stay today and leave tomorrow? Tang Ye suggested.
Nangong Jin couldn't, so he had to say to him: "You guys go and do it, when will it be done, when will it go." Then he said to Du Ling: "Let's go with them first, you don't have to get out of the car." Let's go. ”
Du Ling nodded.
**********
Qianlitang had already chartered one of the most luxurious inns in the city. It is said to be the most luxurious, but this inn with only ten rooms has two upper rooms.
drove the carriage to the backyard, Du Ling took Hao'er out to find medicine, and let Chengjun look at Fu Qingshuang. Because of this, Cheng Jun said that he would not get out of the car at all, and Nangong Jin could only take Cheng Rui to the front hall to order a few dishes.
At the entrance of the inn, the store is constantly catching customers. Cheng Rui sat at the table, sipping a bowl of sour plum soup. Suddenly, he pulled Nangong Jin's sleeve and pointed outside, "Uncle, it's Sister Qiu Niang." ”
Nangong Jin turned around, and Qiu Niang at the door glanced at him. Nangong Jin understood and said to Cheng Rui: "You are obedient, don't go away." It's going to be eaten later, so I'll eat it first. Uncle will be back soon. ”
Cheng Rui also looked at Qiu Niang, with a look of 'I know very well', and nodded.
Nangong Jin went out, followed Qiu Niang around, avoided everyone's sight, and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
Qiu Niang stopped and turned around, crossed her waist, "It's okay!" I'm just angry, so let's ask. Is your surname Nangong? ”
"What's wrong? Ask this? Nangong Jin was very embarrassed to be asked.
"You're so rich, and you're pretending to be poor to lie to me?! Those people are the members of the Qianli Hall under the Nangong Gate! Qiu Niang glared at him and asked.
Nangong Jin laughed flatteringly, "You can even see Qianlitang?" If they don't say it, I can't figure it out. ”
"You're really selling wine every day! There are several guards on this line, and those four halls often appear, and I have seen a lot. Qiu Niang looked at him unhappily, "Second young master?" Home or side branch? Then he shook his head, "It can't be a side branch." These four halls only listened to Nangong Dingkang, and the side branches did not move at all. You better be honest, who are you Nangong Dingkang? Uncle of the family? ”
"You know, he's the big boss, the patriarch, of course the elder." Nangong Jin was ready to fool the past.
"Don't mess with me. You are so rich and powerful, and you still threw Shu Han's mother and son on Bansheng, what kind of heart do you have? You said to yourself, did you swear to take care of them back then! Qiu Niang was angry and pointed at him and asked.
"Eldest sister, I really didn't lie to you. Owed a lot of debt, this is called rich? It's even more ridiculous to be powerful, have you heard that the Nangong clan has me? Nangong Jin had a bitter face.
"I don't even know what your name is!" Thinking of this, Qiu Niang was even more angry, it was difficult for herself to take care of him as a younger brother for so many years.
"Rich and powerful, you should be named. Look at me, what is it like? Shu Han's mother and son, if I can gain a foothold in the Central Plains, of course I have to take them back to the Central Plains. Nangong Jin hurriedly explained: "Even if it is my own family, there are those who are not powerful. Besides, you know, I am not in the Central Plains all the year round, and my family has no idea what I am doing. Alas, I didn't expect to send someone to wait for me here this time. After a pause, he sighed, "Maybe it's a children's relationship." ”
"Your brother's child?" Qiu Niang listened to him explain this, but she really couldn't think of anyone in the Nangong family who met his situation, thinking that he might be unhappy at home, she was not so angry, and she felt a little sorry for him.
"Ah Jin."
Nangong Jin was stunned when she heard the voice and didn't look back. Not far away, Nangong Pu rode over quickly. Qiu Niang beside her was really stunned and looked at Nangong Pu.
Nangong Pu seemed to be used to being looked at like this, walked up to them, dismounted and asked with a smile: "This, but is it a friend of my brother?" ”
Nangong Jin felt like she had been stepped on her tail, so she could only stand aside with her head bowed and silent.
Qiu Niang came back to her senses, blushed, still looking at him and asked, "This, but Nangong Pu Nangong eldest prince?" ”
Nangong Pu smiled back, "It's exactly below." ”
Qiu Niang smiled and asked, "You two brothers, don't you look alike?" ”
"There are also mothers and mothers who are like fathers and mothers." Nangong Pu replied with a smile and patted Nangong Jin's shoulder, "Why don't you introduce me?" ”
Qiu Niang suddenly put down her face, pushed Nangong Jin hard, and said angrily: "Liar! "I walked away without looking back.
"I didn't lie to you!" Nangong Jin shouted behind her.
Nangong Pu watched from the side and asked with a smile: "What?" Do you want to catch up and explain? ”
"How do you want me to explain?" Nangong Jin asked angrily.
Nangong Pu smiled, "If you really make friends, at least tell each other your real name." "This sentence is clearly telling Nangong Jin, 'I did it on purpose just now.'
Nangong Jin was a little angry, just wanted to say something and endured it, but looked at Nangong Pu and finally let out a sigh, "Why is it so fast?" ”
"It's nearby." Nangong Pu also looked at Nangong Jin, and suddenly took him into his arms, "I really want to beat you!" ”
"Chengjun Chengrui is at the inn." Nangong Jin was startled and wanted to push him away, for fear of being seen by passers-by.
Nangong Pu let go of him, stared at his eyes and said seriously: "Throughout the New Year, we are waiting for you to go home for the New Year!" Why didn't you even get a letter? ”
Nangong Jin didn't know what to say, so she had to answer: "It's inconvenient." ”
"Inconvenient?" Nangong Pu took a deep breath, frowned and said, "We don't know where you are, we don't know if you're okay or not, have you ever thought that your family would be worried?" Dad and mother don't dare to leave home every day, for fear of walking away and missing your news. We don't mind your letter being opened, we just want to hear from you. Ah Jin, you remember to me that in the future, when you are outside, you will have to write a letter to your home at least a month. Also, if there is anything inconvenient in the future, you are not allowed to do it. ”
Nangong Jin was a little unhappy when she said a few words like this, she looked up and wanted to argue, but she endured it again, and the words were changed, "Let's go to the inn first, you haven't seen the children for a long time." ”
Nangong Pu looked at him, his expression was actually a little sad, he reached out and hugged him again, and said softly: "Remember what the eldest brother just said." When I got home, I confessed my mistake to my parents. You don't look good, are you uncomfortable? ”
"Got it. I'm fine. Nangong Jin pushed him away and replied.
"Okay." Nangong Pu nodded nonchalantly, "Let's go back to the inn." ”
Nangong Pu took his hand and walked towards the inn, as if he was afraid that he would run away again.
