Li You was silent for a long time, his face twisted Mr. Huang sat in the guest seat and tasted tea leisurely, this Li Zhai tea seemed to be stronger than before.

"How about going to the South Prison?" Li You spoke again. Nanguozi Jian is located in Nanjing, only more than 500 miles away from Suzhou Prefecture, which is much more convenient than Beijing.

"The imperial court edict ordered that the supplementary prisoners should go to the northern prison of the capital division to bathe in the emperor's grace, and the southern prison will not accept it."

Li You sighed, he had to work hard, he didn't have a few days of comfort, and he had to toss again, but it was better to go to Beijing than to be selected by those officials to go to the border wasteland.

Master Huang knew that Li You had figured it out, so he explained: "Suzhou Mansion is the world's first wealthy place, and it has always been valued by the imperial court. Speaking of which, you can be regarded as a unique and peculiar official in my dynasty, from a clerk to the seventh grade of the hometown, I can't find a few in the country and the dynasty several times, who knows your situation is not different? But it's not a good thing to be too bizarre in officialdom, special cases are special cases after all, how can the sword go sideways for a long time? Now that you have the opportunity to sit in the prison and study, you can erase the traces and get another birth, which will be of great benefit to you. ”

Listening to what he means is like laundering black money... Li You said in his heart after sending Master Huang away.

However, sitting in prison and reading is not a matter of these days, Master Huang just reported a letter in advance, and the court did not come over, so there is no need to be too anxious to prepare now.

The top priority at the moment is how to deal with those twin beauties in front of my mother-in-law... From a man's point of view, Li You is of course willing to stay. The flower-like double lotus is really pleasing to the eye, and I don't know where Qian Huangshang got it from.

But I was about to leave home to study, and having such two strangers with embarrassing identities and unknown details at home was a bit detrimental to the stability of the rear.

It's another dilemma.

But why did Master Qian give Li You a big gift? Because Li Tuiguan promised that as long as he helped drive Shi Dashen away, whether it was city construction or river work, the matter of materials would be easy to discuss, so he came to give a gift today to express his urging.

Thinking of this, Li Tuiguan was suddenly stunned, if he had known that he was going to leave Suzhou Mansion to go to Guozijian, and the relationship with Shi Shenzheng in the future would be out of sight and out of mind, then why did he go to great lengths to get rid of Shi Shenzheng, what did he want.

It's really a hard work for whom, and the person who finally got the biggest benefit is the prefect of the king, who basically didn't do anything except issue two edicts and pretend to be unconscious in the sun once.

The favor that Old Man Wang owes must be returned! While thinking about it, Li You returned to Mrs. Liu's room in the backyard. At this time, the women had dispersed, Mrs. Wang was holding Mrs. Liu's hand and whispering something, Mei Zhi was standing on the side, and the pair of gifts seemed to have been sent to the guest room.

Li You stepped forward and said, "It's rare for the old man to come once, please stay for a few days." ”

Mrs. Wang chuckled and said, "I have received my heart, after tonight, I will return to Xujiang tomorrow morning." If you really have the heart, you have a way to bring your old Taishan home from the monk's temple to live in peace. There is another thing, there is a lack of smart girls around Brother Jie to take care of it, and I think the two sent today are good. ”

Doesn't it feel violent to use a pair of twin beauties to take care of the little kids, Li You felt pity in his heart, and he didn't say yes or no, thinking about how to deal with it. So he avoided the topic first and said: "In the future, my mother will have to worry about family affairs, and my son-in-law is afraid that she will not be able to take care of it for the time being." ”

Madame Wang asked, "What does this mean?" ”

"Just now according to Mr. Huang, the inspector of the division, came to report that there was an edict from the imperial court to allow the son-in-law to enter Beijing as a teacher and study in the name of a supplementary prison."

Hearing that her husband wanted to stay away, Mrs. Liu's face changed, but Mrs. Wang was overjoyed and said: "This is a good deed, having a serious background, and it is also good to be a wife and a son, but I want to thank the court for its grace." ”

Li You replied: "It's time to leave home for a while." ”

Mrs. Wang said: "The husband is ambitious in all directions, when you Taishan has been in the army for ten years, there are very few people at home, so you can earn back a patrol master to do, otherwise you will die of old age in Lufu as a slave." Now that you have the opportunity to go to the next level, why not go? ”

Lao Taishui is so atmospheric, Li You said secretly. I heard Mrs. Wang say to Mei Zhi again: "Go get a pen and paper." ”

Li You is very strange, this is to write poems? I didn't hear she had this specialty.

Mrs. Wang seemed to explain to Li You inadvertently: "The third son of the old master's family left Xujiang after the New Year and went to the capital to prepare for next year's big competition. I haven't seen strange thoughts for a long time, and the old body repairs a book, and I ask my good son-in-law to bring it and send it to Lu Shangshu Mansion in the capital for the old body. ”

In these days, it is normal to go out to help others carry letters. Of course, Lu Shangshu refers to the military secretary Lu Lao who is from Xujiang County, and Li You knows it; Both father-in-law and mother-in-law were born in the Xujiang Lu family, and Li You also knew about it.

But what makes Li You wonder is that your two old men seem to be slaves and maids in the Xujiang Lu family, what qualifications do you have to miss the third son of the family, and take the initiative to write a letter in a big way, this is a bit disrespectful? How do you send this letter?

Could it be that I ran to the door of Shangshu Mansion to say that the former slave maid of your mansion wrote a letter to the third prince and asked me to send it over?

Mrs. Wang remained silent, took the pen from Mei Zhi, waved her hand and told the idlers to retreat, leaving only Mrs. Liu to accompany the grinding of ink.

Walking outside the door, Li You suddenly found that he knew almost nothing about his parents-in-law's past, only knew that he was a servant in the Lu family, so he asked Mei Zhi in a low voice: "What does the old lady do in the Lu family?" ”

"The little maid heard that it was the nurse of the third prince of Lu and the housekeeper of the third room, and later Master Liu had a chance, so he followed out of the house as a wife." Mei Zhi replied with a little contempt, the old man in front of him who tends to be inflammatory, since he got his hands on the inspection, he has not paid attention to the Liu family, and now he knows to ask?

So... Master Li felt some inexplicable remorse, and twisted his hand on Mei Zhi's buttocks and said, "You dead little girl, why didn't you say it earlier!" Is it deliberate? I'm washing up tonight and waiting! ”

In large households, some nurses are not ordinary people. Especially the kind that first became a nurse to feed the young lady, and when she grew up, she became the housekeeper in the house, and the relationship between the little master is naturally not ordinary, and the deep feelings can be regarded as half a mother and called a nursing mother.

At the same time, the nurse's family is also the most trusted by Miss Gongzi, the most typical, such as the story that has to be told between Emperor Sejong of this dynasty and the chief military attache of the court.

According to the customs of the common people, if you ignore the difference between dignity and inferiority, Liu Niangzi and the third son of Lu who is going to take the imperial examination can be called brothers and sisters. Master Li's cheeks are several times thicker, and he can go and call Lu Sangongzi a brother-in-law! I heard that the third son is still a descendant... I really never thought that there was such a way under my nose, it was really dark under the lights, Li You sighed with emotion.

Immediately, Li You shouted outside the door to the inside: "Old Taishui! If the two women need it, take it! If there are still few people in the family, the son-in-law bought it in Fucheng and sent it over! In which temple is Old Tarzan in? The son-in-law went to dismantle it, and he didn't believe that Old Taishan was not vulgar! ”
