Chapter 135: Guilty of Petitioning
Tang Yourou looked at her folding fan attack, and suddenly remembered that when she hit Tang Dou'er, it was exactly the same action, and she dodged with a smile: "Boss Liu, don't do it in the carriage, my clothes are dirty, don't rub this brocade cushion dirty!" β
Liu Jia snorted, and then withdrew his hand.
After crossing over, this was the first time Tang and Rou had taken a carriage, and she couldn't help but look around with envious eyes.
This is the carriage of a rich woman! The interior is quite luxurious!
Due to the habit of sitting and lying down, the bottom of the carriage is flat and covered with soft cushions, which can be kneeling or lying down.
There is a folded wooden board in the middle, which can be used as a low table when put down, and it can be buckled to the wall of the carriage when there is no need. There is not a single nail used in the joints, and it is all made of wood.
The craftsman was so ingenious that he didn't know how such an elaborate mechanism could be pressed into the interior of a crowded carriage when it was made.
A piece of paper sits in the upholstered corner. In this year, papermaking has been popularized, but because of the high price of materials and the large number of illiterates, paper has not become popular. But looking at the paper used by Liu Jia, it is completely snow-white, and the price is very expensive.
Tang Yourou curiously swept the traditional Chinese characters on it, because the ancients used to use punctuation in their letters, and it was a little difficult to look at it.
It seemed to be a letter, barely recognizable by Song Zhizhang's name written on it.
The road is very bumpy, and more of it is difficult to see clearly.
Seeing that she was staring so carefully, Liu Jia scolded her angrily: "What are you looking at? Is this what you should see? You are illiterate. β
Tang Yourou was generous and said with a smile: "I have never seen a rich female businessman's carriage, I finally have the opportunity to sit, of course I have to see more!" If you don't like me looking, then I'll close my eyes! β
As she spoke, she closed her eyes.
Liu Jia snorted.
Originally, I was worried about Song Zhizhang's things in my pocket, and I was busy, but my son went to make trouble for her again. Fortunately, this girl helped her sort it out, and a big problem was put aside for the time being, and after a few words with this girl, even Liu Changqing's matter was not so angry.
Speaking of which, there were only a handful of people in her carriage.
Most of the people who usually travel with her are merchants, but the male merchants in the trading house ride in the same carriage with her, a widow, what is the system?
If she invited the wives of some higher-ranking officials to sit in, she would not dare to say how much silver was used in the carriage, for fear that she would be taken as a fat sheep and robbed of her home.
Finally, a little village girl who had never seen the world came, and she actually made it a little girl and showed off: "It cost me 5,000 taels to make this carriage!" β
Tang and Rou were dumbfounded: "Five thousand taels? β
Liu Jia was very satisfied with her reaction, shook the folding fan, and continued to show off: "This car was built by the public. He said that in order to complete this mechanism, it could only be done with the most expensive red sandalwood. And you smell ...... Rosewood has a faint fragrance, and if you go to the ravine in summer, it has the effect of repelling insects. I heard that even the dragon chair is made of red sandalwood! β
Tang Yourou nodded and said, "No wonder it's so expensive!" β
The last time she proposed to Gong Yuan to use the most expensive wood to renovate the house, Gong Yuan offered a high price of 50,000 taels, but if she changed to ordinary wood, it would only take more than 1,000 taels to complete the transformation.
The carriage has few consumables, and if it is made of the most expensive wood, five thousand taels of silver makes sense.
Although the journey was bumpy, the carriage was no faster than the ox cart, which was fast, efficient, and very comfortable to sit on.
If there could be a carriage, then the young lady would not get motion sickness every time she came in the morning!
β¦β¦
The school is located next to the city gate.
The homeless people who were originally sitting outside the city wall all gathered at the door of the school with black tiles and white walls at this time, laughing at Liu Changqing. There are also many people in the vicinity, who are idle and have nothing to do, and they also come over to watch the excitement.
Just as the little guy said, the onlookers talked about it, and the more it spread, the more unbearable it became, and they even said what position is easy to give birth to.
Tang and Rou were expressionless, pretending not to understand, and followed Liu Jia through the crowd.
Liu Jia was angry when he heard this, and scolded: "These filthy little people, when they raise donations together, they are all shrunken turtles, let them do some work, and they always shirk and cheat. Listening to the things in the corner, one by one they are like mushrooms that emerge after the rain, and their necks are longer than the tongue of a hanged man! β
Several passers-by heard Liu Jia's scolding and glared at her.
Tang Yourou couldn't cry or laugh, and pulled Liu Jia's clothes: "Dissipate your anger, don't be like them......"
Before he approached the door of the school, he heard the crying of Liu Changqing and a group of miscellaneous servants.
"Master, Master, I beg your forgiveness! Zimei is sincerely repentant, Zimei should not be unenterprising, sneaked out of the school, and lived up to the master's trust and cultivation...... Woowoo...... Master, please forgive Zimei! Open the door! β
"Master, please forgive the young owner!"
"Master, Master, you are all right, open the door quickly!"
Liu Changqing's voice was indeed funny, with a crying tone, which seemed to come from the bottom of his heart. But he didn't shed a single tear.
Beside him, several handymen also knelt together, which were still caught from the back kitchen of Fumanlou.
They cried and grabbed the ground, helping him to beg the master together, and those who didn't know thought that someone had hanged himself at the door of the school.
The doors of the school are closed.
Through the gap between the gate and the ground, you can see many feet standing behind the door. It looks like he's listening to Liu Changqing's cry.
From time to time, a few muffled laughter came from inside the door.
Liu Jia really wanted to step forward and blow up Liu Changqing's brain.
And Liu Changqing didn't know what signal he got, but as if he found that Liu Jia was coming, he suddenly shouted: "My mother pulled me up alone, how difficult it is!" I shouldn't have run away from the school, now that I have learned my mistake, I will work hard in the future, carefully remember every word and word that the master said, study well, strive to make a name for myself in the examination as soon as possible, glorify the faΓ§ade, and report my mother's nurturing grace...... Master, Master, let me in......"
The strong businesswoman's eyes were red, but she quickly realized that something was wrong, looked down at the crack in the middle door, and saw her son's good brother Lin Muran, and shouted: "Lin Muran, who can not recognize your brocade silk clothes and silk shoes?!" Who are you colluding to throw here? When you see me coming, you let him say these things, do you think I can beat him less?! β
Someone behind the door was named, and there was a strange scream, and the silk shoes fled from behind the door at once.
Tang and Rou watched the excitement nearby, laughing and covering their stomachs.
Liu Jia rolled up his sleeves and stepped forward to kick Liu Changqing. Liu Changqing screamed and dodged, and the handymen next to him saw that the owner had finally come, and they shouted thank God and fled to the side.
"Madame Liu, please don't do it-"
Zhang Wenjian's voice came from behind.
