Yang Chengzu believed that Yan Song was telling the truth, because of the performance, he also checked some information about Yan Song, and knew that although this person was greedy for money, he was not good.

In his life, he only had one spouse in his wife, Ouyang Shuduan, and he did not have a concubine room, nor did he raise a little mother outside. So don't worry that he bought Mei'e to raise a house, but when he thinks of his son Yan Shifan, who is engaged in meat screens, if Mei'e is bought by him, sooner or later it will be a dish in the mouth of this dead fat one-eyed dragon.

It is said that if he hands over Mei'e to Yan Song now, maybe he will be able to make a good relationship in the future, and when Yan Song makes a fortune, he will be able to climb the friendship. If Mei'e can be favored by Yan Shifan, the two families can still be relatives. But when he thought of Li Mei'e's cute appearance, and thought of Yan Shifan's legendary appearance like a pirate of the Caribbean, he still extinguished this thought.

Yan Yang's current state belongs to the fear of beating wolves with hemp sticks. One is worried that the other party will make a fortune in the future and find himself to settle the account, and the other is worried that people will suffer losses in front of them under the low eaves.

Especially Yan Song is traveling with his family, and his two daughters are on the boat, in case there is any accident, it will be discredited. Therefore, both of them tried their best to please each other, and naturally they were extremely close, and the talks were full of a cordial and friendly atmosphere.

After drinking two cups of tea and soup, Yang Chengzu reached out and took out two envelopes of silver from his arms. "Yan Taishi wants to buy a maid to serve his wife, this is right, but Mei'e is my relative after all, and my side room is also distressed by my sister, I don't want her to be too far away from me, this mood, I think Taishi can understand it. So Mei'e, I'll stay and can't let you take it away. However, you can't suffer this loss in vain, this one hundred taels of silver, even if it is the loss I compensate, I hope Taishi will not be too little. ”

Yan Song's Hanlin Qinggui is Qinggui, but another meaning of Qinggui is poverty. Cilin officials don't have the extra income of the real power officials of the Ming Dynasty, Bing Jing Tan Jing is not all in charge, and some Hanlin even have to be reduced to the point of writing birthday greetings for people in exchange for money. Sour Hanlin, poor to admonish, eat dry and be a clean master, these words are a true portrayal of their clear streams in Beijing.

Although he is not poor, he is not rich, and he took out thirty taels to buy a maid, only because he loves his wife, and he sees that Mei'e is indeed well-behaved, so he gritted his teeth and took out such a sum of silver. One hundred taels is definitely a lot of money for him. He is a clear civil official, Jinyiwei has nothing to use to help him, and he can't open his joints, so he doesn't dare to take this silver. Hurriedly pushed it out.

"I can't do it, I can't do it. This matter is the fault of the lower officials, how can they ask for your silver. If you put the silver away, I can't ask for it. ”

"Yan Gong, when you say this, you just don't treat me as a friend. We don't mention the compensation for this silver, just treat it as a gift from me. If Yan Taishi doesn't dislike me for being a vulgar martial artist, let's make friends here, I don't know if there is such a creation. ”

Yang Baizai laughed. You are a young hero, and your future is limitless, Yan is just looking for a Confucian student, and you have to be friends with Baizai, that is my Gao Pan. ”

"A good friend has the meaning of wealth, so I will send this entanglement. Brother Yan doesn't want it, it won't be too little, right? ”

The two laughed, seeing that he was so enthusiastic, Yan Song no longer shirked. This is the friendship of officials, which is different from that of the charlatans. Don't talk about licking blood with a knife, let alone cutting a chicken's head and burning yellow paper, everyone can determine whether it is a camp or not with just a few words, and whether they can be friends.

From this exchange, Yan Song can basically determine that Yang Chengzu has no ill will towards him, but on the contrary, he deliberately made friends.

He is a hundred households in brocade clothes, and for a clear stream like Hanlin, he is actually unsightly. But on the other hand, what is the use of a Nanjing Hanlin Academy's revision for a Henan brocade? Hanlin is also known as the prime minister, but the prime minister of Nanjing Hanlin Academy is ......, and this joke is not very funny.

In fact, there are many people in the Hanlin Academy, and when Yan Song was twenty-five years old, he really thought that he could one day become a cabinet minister, and from then on he would dominate the world and make great achievements. But now he is forty years old, and the serious illness of the year made him miss a lot of things, and the closing field is like this, one wrong step, one wrong step, one step can't catch up, one step can't catch up.

Now I am still stumbling on a six-grade petty official, although I have a clear stream identity, but it is of little significance, and the future is dark. In the future, perhaps a four-grade prefect will be the apex of the career.

Although there is a cold stove in the official factory, it is estimated that there is no possibility of smoke in the stove, and there is no point in burning the stove of oneself.

One hundred taels is definitely more for one's own official, it is the best time for loyal ministers and masters to meet before they meet, today's Yan Song is just one of the countless officials of the Ming Dynasty, and it is an inconspicuous kind. Yang Chengzu's 100 taels are worth far more than 10,000 taels in the future.

Because the little disgrace caused by buying a maid has disappeared under the attack of one hundred taels, as for Jiao Rong, Yan Song only felt that the blow was too light. Therefore, when he left the teahouse, the thought in his heart was: This friend should be befriendable.

As soon as this matter was finished, there was no reason for the ship to be delayed, Yan Song got on the boat with his front foot, and pulled out the anchor and set sail with his back foot. Ouyang stayed in the cabin accompanied by her two daughters, and when she saw her husband come back, she asked, "What about that Mei'e?" ”

"She, she has been making trouble for a long time, she is a daughter of a thousand households in brocade, but her stepmother is not virtuous, so she has to sell her. Fortunately, someone told us that it was broken, otherwise we would be wrong. This Yang Baihu is interesting, Cheng Yi gave us a hundred taels, this person can make friends. Now that the price of grain in Henan is soaring, this 100 taels of silver can buy several maids. ”

Ouyang said: "Yes, I heard that the price of grain in Henan is now rising, and some places have burst embankments, and there are refugees everywhere. Master, I think we might as well buy a few girls with this one hundred taels more, so that they don't starve to death. Although our ability is limited, we can save one by one. ”

"That's what Madame said." Yan Song looked outside the cabin, shook his head and said: "It's a pity that I am only a six-grade cultivator, and I have no power in my hands, otherwise, the Henan famine will definitely not be what it is today." ”

Over there, Li Mei'e and her sister first hugged their heads and cried for a while, and finally Mei'e carefully wiped her tears for her sister with a handkerchief and said, "Sister, Mei'e has been rescued, why are you still crying?" And the brother just now, why do you want me to call him brother-in-law? ”

"Girl, don't ask, as long as you're okay. With my sister here, I won't let people bully you. Yu'e hugged her in her arms, originally wanting to grit her teeth, but tears still flowed down her face.

Yang Chengzu sent Yan Song away, came in from outside and said: "Don't cry, go back first, by the way, I just told Jiao Rong, you don't go back to live these days, let him have anything to say, just come to Ruxian Teahouse and say." ”

Yu'e's body stiffened, but she still pulled her sister and followed behind Yang Chengzu wordlessly. The group first went back to Ruxian Teahouse and saw Mei'e's little cutie, even Ruxian couldn't help but have maternal love in her heart, and hugged her over and kissed her.

And he commanded them to buy her new clothes, and brought out some refreshments, to amuse her. Li Mei'e is also well-behaved, and she keeps shouting at Ruxian and Tie Coral sisters, which makes the faces of the two of them smile. Iron Coral said: "Such a cute little baby is willing to sell? If Mrs. Fang takes me, I will have to kill that Jiao Rong. ”

Li Yu'e took the opportunity to pull Yang Chengzu aside and said: "You rescued my sister, and I will keep my promise, but I am still in filial piety, and I will not let you do anything wrong, if you have to be strong, I will only die." ”
