Ji Ning is about to arrive in Jinling City.

At this time, Ji Ning left Jinling City for nearly a year, from rushing to take the exam, to winning the exam, entering the Confucian Temple, and then becoming a bachelor of the Confucian Temple, and was forced to return to Jinling City, during which Ji Ning also experienced a lot of things, he himself did not expect that he could return to the starting point of everything after the vicissitudes of the years, he looked up at the gate of Jinling City Water City, and couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

The prosperity of Jinling City, which lasted for thousands of years, as the ancient capital, is also a complex of commerce and trade, Ji Ning came back to take the waterway, directly from the Qinhuai River, a tributary of the river, into Jinling City, and has not yet entered the city, you can experience the momentum of Jinling City.

"Master, we're back!" After seeing the gate of Shuicheng, Yu Ling took Lin Juan'er on the deck, cheering loudly and happily.

Ji Ning nodded, he was thinking a lot of things in his heart, after returning to Jinling City, in fact, he had a lot of things to face, involving the affairs of the old people, he didn't even want to face them directly, because these people really didn't need to communicate in his opinion.

At this time, He An, who was on the opposite boat, shouted loudly: "Master, you need to cross the city gate, do you need to send someone down to tell the people who guard the city gate?" ”

Ji Ning waved his hand and said, "Uncle An can go!" ”

He An first asked the boat to dock, he got off the boat and went to pay the city gate tax first, and after the city gate tax was paid, the ship passed the water gate and officially entered the water city of Jinling City.

The main river in Jinling City is the Qinhuai River, on the Qinhuai River, it reflects the prosperity of the entire Jiangnan, with 100,000 families scattered on the fertile soil of the Jiangnan Water Town, Ji Ning stood on the bow of the boat, looking at the peddlers and pawns on the riverbank, he was also thinking about what he should do after returning to Jinling City.

Settle the family back to their mansion in Jinling City......

Report to the Temple of Literature in Jinling City......

Then there is the normal life and work, which will already start to enjoy life.

"Master, where are we going first?" At this time, suddenly a person came out of the cabin, and he seemed a little timid and asked, it was not someone else, it was Li Xiu'er's personal maid Yuzhen, Li Xiu'er knew that he would return to Jinling City, and wanted to know what Ji Ning's arrangements were.

Ji Ning said: "Did your young lady ask you to come out and ask?" ”

"Yes!" Yuzhen replied seriously.

Ji Ning also replied with a positive color: "The ship will dock later, someone has already gone to hire a carriage first, and the group will go back to Ji Mansion first, before I had my own mansion in Jinling City, but the servants and maids in the mansion were all dismissed by me, I didn't plan to go back to Jinling City before, and there is also the Sanwei Academy I opened in Jinling City, these are all things that I need to take care of after I come back...... As for you and your young lady, you can live in the mansion with peace of mind after returning to Jinling City......"

"Yes, sir, the slave will go back to the young lady...... Madame said! "Yuzhen has always wanted to call Li Xiu'er Miss, but according to her seniority, Li Xiu'er is now Ji Ning's wife, and she should change her previous title.

Ji Ning didn't say too much to Li Xiu'er, he was going to go home and settle down first, and after settling down, he would go to the Temple of Literature to meet with the people of the Temple of Literature, arrange his errands, and when he would officially go to work.

……

……

After the ship docked, the carriage was also prepared, and He An rode a horse first to find someone to settle down, Ji Ning had no power in Jinling City at all, and there were not many people he brought, except for He An, there were several brothers of the Giant Whale Gang, and these people were also helping Ji Ning in front of the saddle and behind the horse.

"The master has almost settled down, and the family has also sent someone to inform him, do you need to make other preparations?" He An asked.

Ji Ning said: "Take the carriage back first, settle down at home, there should be no one living in the house, this will go back, I don't know if I can live immediately, the weather in this Jiangnan water town is not very good, sometimes it will be very humid, I come back this time, I can only live in the Ji Mansion temporarily, look back or change the house!" ”

"The lord wants to buy a house?" He An was also really surprised, in his opinion, if Ji Ning wanted to buy a house, it would mean spending a lot of silver taels, and as Ji Ning's housekeeper, he always thought about Ji Ning.

Ji Ning sighed lightly: "In order for the family to live more comfortably, I can only do this, go back and see ...... for the time being."

Ji Ning didn't say more, before the group returned to Ji's mansion, Ji Ning personally went over to help Li Xiu'er get out of the carriage, and after he helped Li Xiu'er down, he found that there were many people in the neighborhood who came to watch, and the neighbors also heard that Ji Ning had returned to Jinling City and wanted to see the demeanor of the following new champions.

"Uncle An, say hello to the neighbors in the street, and say that I, Ji Ning, are back, if the neighbors want to come over for a flowing water banquet, arrange it, and if there is a place for poor hospitality, let them forgive me!"

Ji Ning is not a stingy person, since he has returned to Jinling City, he is also ready to treat the neighbors well, and he himself accompanied Li Xiu'er into the courtyard first.

Because the yard has not been inhabited for a long time, there are already some weeds, Ji Ning said to Li Xiu'er: "When you come back from this long journey, there are not many places to settle down, so I will give in to you here!" ”

"I didn't ...... It's okay! Li Xiu'er looked very cramped, Ji Ning's courtesy to her also made her feel very warm in her heart, for her physical condition, Ji Ning never mentioned the matter of asking for a round house along the way, which made her feel a little more warm and grateful in her heart.

Ji Ning first asked people to make arrangements, and after arranging everything, Ji Ning also went to the bedroom to see it first, and asked Lin Juan'er to go over and help Yuzhen clean up Li Xiu'er's room.

Ji Ning had to go to the Temple of Literature to ventilate first, and when he arrived in Jinling City, he would be a bachelor in the Temple of Literature in Jinling City in the future, and he was also the person in charge of the study, and he could basically manage the affairs of the entire Jinling City.

In the Temple of Literature in Jinling City, he can basically do it without the need for others to control him.

"Master, if you want to go to the Temple of Literature first, let the old slave arrange it for you!" He An knew that Ji Ning was going to the Temple of Literature first and came to salute.

"Uncle An, you help clean up the house first, I will find a way to go to the Confucian Temple in Jinling City, I don't want to make a big fuss, many things in the family need you and Yu Ling to take care of, you are also familiar with this home, wait until you settle down first, and then consider buying a farm house and moving, since you return to Jinling City, put the home here well, I also have silver on hand, so as not to live too restrained!" Ji Ning said.
