Chapter 131: Palm Prints and Brushes, the Ancestor of the Master of Ceremonies (II)

"Du Jin, Du Jin......"

Li Rong opened the bag and saw that the golden talisman inside was lusterly and warm, it was indeed not brand new, it was obvious that it was an old thing that had been rubbed for many years, so he was deeply moved, and couldn't help but chant the name several times. It's just that there are too many apprentices and grandchildren under his name, and he can't think of anything at this time, but it's not good to show it in front of Xu Xun and Xiao Jing, so he coughed dryly.

"It's hard for him to be filial!"

Xiao Jingqing knew that Li Rong couldn't remember it at all, so he said jokingly: "It's better to be Brother Li, the disciples and grandchildren have all your affairs in mind." This Du Jin has only been the tax supervisor of Linqing for a few months, and the transfer of silver is much more timely than the previous ones, and the head of the household department and the imperial history of the Metropolitan Procuratorate who worked with him have not been impeached, which is really not easy. By the way, there is also a piece of Fu Song'an's heart, Brother Li is an elder, but please pick first. ”

"Hahaha, Gonggong Xiao, you really complimented you. Since you are so generous, our family is really welcome! ”

An insignificant person under his name was praised by Xiao Jing like this, and Li Rong laughed so much that his eyes narrowed. At that moment, he completely forgot about the previous topic about Ma Wensheng, and carefully sorted out all the things in the box, and then called the accompanying little eunuch in with a smile, and finally moved most of the boxes without being polite.

When he personally sent the person to the second gate and watched Li Rong get into the car and leave, Xiao Jingfang breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Xu Xun and said approvingly: "Thanks to your cleverness, otherwise Gonggong Li may not know how long he will be looking for our family." ”

Sun Bin was just dragged by Li Rong, and he couldn't even report the news, although Xiao Jing didn't blame him explicitly, but there was already some meaning in his words, and he couldn't help but be a little sneering. And what Xu Xun doesn't like the most is to offend people for no reason, so he immediately said humbly: "Grandpa Xiao won the award, if it weren't for Grandpa Sun reminding Grandpa Li that Grandpa Li believes in Buddhism the most, I wouldn't have moved this box of things down alone." Moreover, thanks to the fact that Fu Gonggong is well prepared. ”

Xiao Jing glanced at Sun Bin quietly, and then said: "Fu Song'an has always been careful, and in Nanjing for many years, he still does not change his surname Bing. By the way, according to what you say, is there anything else in the car? ”

"Yes, there are ten pairs of summer socks, ten pairs of spring and autumn socks, and ten pairs of winter socks specially made by Fu Gonggong in the carriage outside the Jiangnan Weaving and Dyeing Bureau, which are specially customized according to the size of the father-in-law. In addition, there is a box folding fan, a box fan cover, and a box purse, all of which are worthless gadgets, and the father-in-law rewards the people below to play. ”

Xiao Jing is now in a high position, and there are people who sharpen their heads and send anything to this private house, even if Fu Rong is a colleague of the former celebrant supervisor, he has to be a little careful. At this time, when he heard that Fu Rong was not sending silk or gold and silver jewelry, they were all such invaluable but painstaking things, his face was pale, but his heart was ironed.

"Fu Song'an's heart is really rare, and we must thank him when I come to our family."

With this digression, Xiao Jing's attitude towards Xu Xun became much more cordial for a while. When the box was moved in, he saw that Xu Xun had left the little guy and not sent it out, he looked at it carefully, and immediately understood that this was the little boy that Fu Rong had mentioned to him in the letter. beckoned someone forward and interrogated a few words, seeing that although he was a little nervous, there was a sense of innocence between his eyebrows, obviously he was honest, and when he learned that Xu Xun also taught him to recognize some words, and now he can write only two or three hundred, he couldn't help laughing.

"It's okay, follow our family, I won't let you be blind!"

"If there is a father-in-law to cultivate, it is really his blessing." Xu Xun saw Ruisheng looking at him, his eyes showed undisguised reluctance and sadness, and this scene obviously fell all in Xiao Jing's eyes, he couldn't help but stretch and said, "Father-in-law, when the kid was seriously injured and about to die, he was by his side, and he never gave up, and he was a little infatuated. ”

"Aren't you afraid that he will miss the old master wholeheartedly, and our family will not be used to being dissatisfied?" Xiao Jing smiled, and looked at Ruisheng's eyes and softened, "If you have the queen master, you will forget the previous master, and if your conscience is bad, it is useless to be good." It's like Lu Bu is brave, but the reputation of these three family slaves has followed him for a lifetime. If he really has such a surname, our family can't look down on it! People stay here in our house, and when our family turns back and enters the palace, they will take it with them. He is too young, and he is a smear in the palace, and let him study with our family for a year or two. ”

Xu Xun really loves and loves Rayson, but once the identity of this eunuch is exposed, there is no reason to stay by his side, so even if Fu Rong said that Rayson will definitely take care of Xiao Jing when he enters the palace, he is still worried in his heart. Hearing this at this time, he only felt a sigh of relief, and immediately bowed his knees and thanked him.

Although I have taken the little guy with me to study for a month or two, with the ignorant surname of Ruisheng, if he really sends any job, he will definitely have no hardships left, it is far better to follow Xiao Jing to experience a year or two!

"Thank you, father-in-law!"

"Latham and Watson, take your young master."

Xiao Jing saw that Ruisheng immediately stepped forward to help Xu Xun up, so he smiled happily: "Fu Song'an said in the letter last time that you had survived the passes in the Xu Clan's ancestral hall at that time, but he was born in this little guy and was taken advantage of, and he was dragged into the water in a hurry. Our family didn't believe it originally, but when we saw it today, we did. It's very good, a little guy who serves by his side can still be so loving, not to mention his closest relatives and benefactors. ”

But all the people who are in the top position like the people below to have some more or less shortcomings, especially the most affectionate and surname-heavy love and righteousness, etc., so that the promotion is not easy to be counterattacked, and the second is easy to control if there are weaknesses. At this time, Xu Xun knew that Xiao Jing was no exception, and he was sincerely afraid of being humble, but he didn't say anything to show his loyalty. After all, there must be too many people who want to serve this celebrant and seal eunuch.

Xing'an Bo Mansion is located in Wu'anhou Hutong on the edge of Xicheng South Bridge, next to Wu'anhou Mansion. I think that the two mansions were given to the two nobles of Wu'an, Hou Xing'an, so the two families became neighbors, but the name of the alley was circulated among the people, so it was naturally according to the title. Now these two families are no longer the scenery of the ancestors in the Jingnan honorable year, although the son is still passable, but it is difficult to live in this huge capital by relying on the annual Lu rice alone. Wu'an's Hou Mansion is a large number of heirs, but Xing'an Bo's Mansion is just the opposite, and the wife and concubine are not without a son, but they can die young, and they die of illness.

Xing'an Bo Xu Sheng has married two ladies before and after, and the stepfamily of Yuan has died, and now it is an old Aunt Dai, who has been with him for many years and is in her early fifties, because she gave birth to a daughter, so she presides over the housework of the great uncle's mansion. She is not a serious lady, and now that Xu Sheng is sick, people are ready to move. Although she has some means, she is not rightly named, she is strict and mean, and she is a little flustered, so she can't control it at all. Xu Sheng's cousin Xu Yi just ran diligently three or five times, and when she poured her mouth full of soup, her heart naturally became biased.

At this time, she personally served Xu Sheng and drank the medicine, and tucked the cloth quilt for him, and sat next to him while crying and said: "Master, Brother Yi came again yesterday, saying that Xu Liang's father and son have entered the capital. You are sick now, but the little one has been named a guard, isn't this the drunkard's intention not to drink? I don't have a son, and I can't say that I have any bias, but who is Xu Liang? It is said that in Nanjing, he even has to make a living by drawing water for people and working part-time jobs, and the little one has a suspicious background! In contrast, Brother Yi is at least a thousand households who have been enshrined in the vanguard of the government army, and he is a military position ......that you have watched grow up."

"That's it!"

Xu Sheng has no children in his old age, and now this disease is even more miserable, and when he heard this, he felt a panic in his heart, and drank impatiently at the moment. Seeing that although Aunt Dai was silent, she was still wiping her tears there, he couldn't help but snort coldly: "Why are you crying, I'm not dead yet!" Even if you have to choose someone to inherit the title, the court can't go past me! ”

As soon as he said this, a mother's voice came from outside: "Master, someone posted outside the door, saying that it was your cousin Xu Liangxu who came from Nanjing, and sent ......."

"Master, look at it, I just arrived yesterday, and I came today, this is obviously bullying you for being sick, and there is no lady in charge at home!" When Aunt Dai thought of Xu Yi's promise, and then thought that if a stranger entered the house, her old concubine would either be swept out of the house or sent directly to the family temple, and suddenly the miserable and miserable situation fell on Xu Sheng, "Master, if there is really this day, I might as well ...... with you."

"Say no more!" After drinking Aunt Dai in one gulp, Xu Sheng thumped the bed board in annoyance, and then commanded in a deep voice, "What Xu Liang Xu, what cousin, he has been broken down for many years, and he dares to come to me to shake his majesty and drive people out, just say that I don't have such a relative, if I come back in the future, I don't need to report it!" ”

Hearing that Xu Sheng was so tough, Aunt Dai was overjoyed in her heart, but she still covered her face with a handkerchief and sobbed. It wasn't until Xu Sheng turned around tiredly and pretended to fall asleep that she sat next to her, while gently comforting Xu Yi's good, and babbling about all kinds of officials and colleagues who had sent people to deliver medicine and so on these days, until she was sure that Xu Sheng had completely fallen asleep, she stood up, and after instructing the girl to take good care, she tiptoed out of the door.

As soon as she came out of the upper room, her confidant mother had already greeted her, and after saluting, she looked around and leaned to the root of her ear and said, "Auntie, Master Yi is here, I have already led people to a side hall in the back, do you want to see it now?" ”

"Of course I'm going to see you!" Aunt Dai clenched her handkerchief tightly and said angrily, "I spent so much effort blowing the pillow wind for the master for him, and he just made a fluttering promise, and he was a fart!" ”
