Chapter Ninety-Six: Preparation for Beijing II

Whether it was a barracks or a workshop, Shen Jia felt that it was easy to deal with. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info But for several women, Shen Jia didn't know how to deal with it. As soon as Shen Jia mentioned going to Beijing, there was a sudden silence in the room. Seeing that the situation was not good, several maids left the house one after another.

Wu Shihan lowered her head and fiddled with her clothes without saying a word, Qu Xiaoyi sat on the side and wanted to cry, only Wen Qing looked excited.

"When to go? I wanted to see the city of Beijing, and it was different from what I remembered. ā€

Wen Qing's idea is not Shen Jia's idea, and the two are full of curiosity about Beijing in this era.

"Tomorrow morning, we will go to Shenyang to receive the assault car, and then go to Beijing, I estimate that it will be more than ten days before we arrive in Beijing."

Wen Qing looked at her white jade onion fingers and said, "I can finally go out to breathe, in this Fushun City where birds don't and don't see the light of day when they look up, they are about to get sick." ā€

Shen Jia didn't respond, he saw Qu Xiaoyi, Wu Shihan was looking at him, with a look of resentment.

"The family needs someone to take care of it, and your uncle can't be busy alone."

Wu Shihan said in a voice: "I helped Uncle Gui find a few guys, you think about it too much, and besides, my brother is also here, there is something I can ask my brother to come over and take care of it." ā€

"Xiao Yi, what do you think?"

Qu Xiaoyi hesitated a little, she hesitated for a long time before saying: "It's okay for me, it's the same everywhere, but you go early and return early, pay attention to safety on the road." ā€

Shen Jia got up from the chair, glanced outside the house, and thought of You Shigong, He Shixian's family, so he said in his heart: "Let's go to Beijing together!" ā€

Qu Xiaoyi's eyes were happy, and then he was a little worried, so he said: "There are a lot of trivial things for women to go out of the house, will it affect you?" ā€

"That's not going to happen, it's just that this time the road is far away, and the military department is urging you very urgently, even if you take a carriage on the road, it will be extremely hard, what do you think?"

Wu Shihan gritted his teeth and said in a low voice: "I'm not afraid, I finally learned to ride a horse, and I just took the opportunity to practice, maybe it will come in handy in the future." ā€

Seeing Wu Shihan say this, Shen Jia glanced back at Wen Qing, but saw that Wen Qing was glaring at him.

"Okay, let's settle it then. Let's take three more maids, Xiao Tao, Ruyi, and Qingwen, let the three of them follow, and there will be a care on the way. Shihan, you go to the front yard and talk to Uncle Gui, and ask him to help us hire four carriages, the cost is easy to say, and the people are reliable. ā€

Qu, Wu and Wu saw that Shen Jia agreed, and their faces were full of sorrow and suddenly dispersed. Wu Shihan glanced at Shen Jia affectionately, and hurriedly went out with a coquettish smile.

"Hmph, soft bones, the beauty cried at you, smiled, you immediately disarmed and surrendered, do you still have a little persistence?"

Looking at Wen Qing, who was deliberately finding fault, Shen Jia smiled and said, "Senior sister, if you cry in front of me that day, I promise you everything." ā€

"Really?"

"A manly man, a word is spoken, and the horse is difficult to chase."

"Okay, I'm going to cry and let you be a eunuch, do you agree?"

Shen Jia's face turned red, he didn't expect Wen Qing to deliberately raise the bar. Shen Jia turned his back and decided to ignore Wen Qing.

"Sister Xiaoyi, you also go back and clean up, and set off early tomorrow morning, don't be in a hurry when the time comes."

Qu Xiaoyi was constantly laughing at Wen Qing's arrogance, and when he heard Shen Jia's instructions, he hurriedly covered his mouth and ran out of the house.

Only Wen Qing was left in the room, and Shen Jia said: "Senior sister, you also need to clean up, there are some things that may not be sold in the capital, just don't complain when the time comes." ā€

After speaking, Shen Jia quickly left the house, leaving Wen Qing's scolding far behind.

When he went out and found that Ruyi was waiting on the side, Shen Jia smiled at Ruyi, and then went to the recliner in the courtyard. The recliner is Shen Jia's favorite, Wen Qing once counted Shen Jia This is the mentality of an old man, how can young people spend their days on the recliner every day. But Shen Jia doesn't think so, he lived so hard in his previous life, and it is not a pleasure to be able to live a leisurely life in this world.

As soon as Shen Jia was lying on the chair, Ruyi quietly came over to help Shen Jia pinch his shoulders and beat his legs. This is Shen Jia's favorite, and everyone in the backyard knows it. Since Shen Jia sent a hairpin to Ruyi last time, Ruyi has been more diligent.

"Ruyi, how was the last thing I told you?"

"Young Master, what's the matter?"

"Hey, you're a wishful person, you actually played stupid with me. You see Sister Yuefen and Brother Xiao Jia's eyebrows, they are almost in the church, although you are three years younger than them, but in ordinary people's homes, the matchmaker may be able to step on the threshold of your house, have you seen the right person? If so, just tell me and I'll arrange it for you. ā€

Ruyi's face was flushed with shame, and he didn't respond for a long time.

This little girl is too thin-skinned, Shen Jia can't go on, so she has to say: "Ruyi, you help me go to the front yard and invite Brother Xiao Jia to come over, I want to talk to him about things, you help me block the door, don't let the idlers come to the backyard." ā€

"Okay young master." Ruyi got up and hurried away.

After a while, Qu Xiaojia arrived in the backyard.

"Brother Jia, you stay in Fushun when you go to the capital this time and help us take care of things at home."

Being entrusted with taking care of the family business, this is a great trust, Qu Xiaojia said: "Don't worry, with me, there will be no demon moths." ā€

Shen Jia sat up, nodded slowly, and thought for a while: "The items in the west wing of the backyard should not be touched by idle people. The box you brought back from Shenyang last time is also inside, in case of an accident, you can do without other things, but that box must be snatched out and taken away secretly. ā€

Qu Xiaojia nodded silently when he heard this.

"Brother Jia, I told Uncle Gui that when I am away, you can withdraw less than 10,000 taels of silver, and I don't have more than 10,000 taels now. How are you getting along with Sister Yuefen? Why don't you get things done at the end of the year? ā€

The honest Qu Xiaojia's face turned red as soon as he was angry, a man who did things neatly and neatly, and when he encountered his own affairs, he couldn't squeeze out a word for a long time.

Helpless, Shen Jia had no choice but to say hastily: "It's so decided, I'll arrange the details, you don't have to worry about it." During my absence, you and your uncle will discuss the affairs of the family, and I will definitely return to Fushun before the autumn harvest at the latest. ā€

discussed the details with Qu Xiaojia, and set up some urgent contact methods, and after Qu Xiaojia left, Shen Jia called the maids back to come in and sort out their belongings.

Bring several mirrors, this is required. If you want to meet Uncle He and Uncle You's family, you can't do it without a decent gift. Bring some soap with you, and glassware, although a little rough, is rare and can barely be used as a gift. The spirits in glass bottles, You Shigong began to nag on the way back to the city, it seems that he must bring it, and he has to bring it more. Shen Jia thought in the courtyard while asking Wu Shihan to write it down.

Looking at Wu Shihan's dignified and beautiful face, Shen Jia said for a while, and then couldn't help but go up to catch Wu Shihan's soft and stroke it endlessly. Wu Shihan's face flushed, and he said, "Look at your color embryo, do you still want me to write it?" If you play tricks on me like this again, you can write it yourself. ā€

"Don't, the words I write are like earthworms crawling around, no one else knows them, Senior Sister Wen is not as good as me, Xiao Yi is illiterate, if you don't write, who will write it?"

"Take your groping hands away, how can I write like this?"

Shen Jia's face was not red, his heart was not beating, and he touched it again, and then let go of his hand. Wu Shihan blushed and glanced at Shen Jia, and then calmed down and continued to record. The maid Qingwen was still young and had no concept of traveling, so she prepared a large bag of things for Qu Xiaoyi. When Shen Jia entered the house, he was startled by the bulging duffel bag.

"Qingwen, aren't you going to move your family to the capital?"

Qingwen's dark eyes were full of energy, and she smiled and said, "Young Master, the capital is far away, I heard that the price of goods is extremely high, how to live if you don't bring more things?" ā€

Hearing Qingwen mention the capital, Shen Jia sighed. The little maid saw that the young master was a little sad, so she asked cautiously, "Young master, are you worried about going to the capital?" ā€

Shen Jia shook his head, he was full of curiosity about going to the capital, but he had to live in You Mansion in the past, and he would inevitably have an intersection with Miss You at that time, plus Uncle You on the side, and the third daughter, he really couldn't live this day.

"Qingwen, except for some underwear and personal belongings, let's stay at home first. It's almost summer when we arrived in the capital, and we can't wear so many spring clothes with us. As for food and accommodation, someone will arrange it at that time, so there is no need to worry about this. We have to leave early tomorrow morning, and the less stuff the better. ā€

After speaking, Shen Jia lowered his head and went to Wen Qing's room again. Wen Qing has been in the army, but she is clean and neat when she goes out, and she doesn't bring anything she can.

"Senior sister, how did you transcribe the schematic diagram of the Newcomen steam engine last time? Why don't you call Wang Erhu over in the afternoon and explain to him carefully? ā€

"Hmph, counting on you? If you can rely on it, the sow can go up the tree, and I handed it over to Wang Erhu the day before yesterday, and I talked to him carefully, and he is gathering carpenters and blacksmiths to discuss together. The principle is to figure it out, as for when there will be results, it depends on the will of God. ā€

Shen Jia breathed a sigh of relief, with the good help of his senior sister, many troublesome things could be solved.

All afternoon, the Shen Mansion was busy. The leaders of each workshop knew that Shen Jia was going to leave for a while, so they took the plan and resolution and waited for Shen Jia to approve it. Shen Jia, who originally planned to relax slightly, was busy all afternoon, and it was not until lunch that he finished everything. Rubbing Fa Mu's head, Shen Jia said in his heart that it was not okay to go on like this, he needed to train some responsible talents as soon as possible.

Shen Jia, who has been busy with training these days and is extremely tired, has rested, and soon fell asleep after nightfall, until he was woken up in the early hours of the morning.

Since his mother's womb, he has never been far away, especially this time he went to Beijing, the political center of the Ming Dynasty, and he was so excited that he never closed his eyes all night. The sky was hazy, and the stone was in the envious eyes of everyone, gathering the Ming army and the four companies to come towards the Shen Mansion.

Rubbing his worried eyes, Shen Jia scolded as he walked: "Damn, you came so early, you deliberately embarrassed me, didn't you?" ā€

Looking at Shen Jia, who was disheveled and depressed, the soldiers of the fourth company couldn't help but think of the rumors about Instructor Shen, the little overlord with the silver spear is by no means a waste of fame, you look at this look, it is clearly the result of staying up all night to fight. A group of soldiers and ruffians looked at the instructor and secretly smiled in their hearts, making Shen Jia a little inexplicable.

"Instructor Shen, how can it, aren't the comrades excited when they heard that they are going to the capital, so they ran over early in the morning, and the soldiers just want to prepare for you in advance, load the car, feed the horses, etc., and leave it to us."

Shen Jia couldn't refuse the kindness of the soldiers, and it was strange that he wasn't excited when he went to the capital for the first time. Looking at the expectant soldiers, Shen Jia said: "Thank you, comrades, there are five trucks over there, and the things have been packed in the front yard, just help me move them." I didn't eat breakfast, I have a treat today, I heard that the old Zhangjia bun shop in the city is a must, stone, you find someone to go, the morning buns and porridge are all included, everyone will go to eat together after they are done. ā€

Hearing that there would be meat buns to eat when they were done, the soldiers were immediately full of energy, rushed into the gate one after another, carried the boxes and carried them to the carriage.

"This little soldier, slow down, you must be careful, there are fragile items in here, everyone must be careful."

The fourth company quickly emptied the front yard, and the noise was so loud that the backyard could not be peaceful. Qu Xiaoyi dragged Shen Jia to the backyard, Shen Jia was disheveled, and he was not ashamed to stand at the door, which really lost the family style of the Shen Mansion.

"Ruyi! Wishful! Hurry up and clean up for the young master, this shame is thrown outside! ā€
