Chapter 263: Set Sail
At the end of the year, Ah Xiu asked the Cao family's caravan to bring two boxes of goods to Fucheng, all of which were excellent medicinal materials and supplements, as well as some quilts and clothes and hats for children she made these days.
In terms of time, Chang had to give birth recently.
In addition to two boxes of things, Ah Xiu also brought two letters, one for Song Ercai and one for Song Tian.
In the past few months, their caravans have rarely returned to the southwest, and it is difficult to bring two letters back, and as for Song Tian's side, they have not found a chance to bring her a letter.
Ah Xiu misses him very much, she thinks, he must be in the same mood as herself.
The capital city of Liangzhou.
Song Ercai helped Chang's family to the ground, pointed to a small mansion and said, "The place is not big, don't dislike it." ”
"Anyway, it won't be long in life, so let's make amends."
Chang Shi supported his waist and slowly went in with her husband's hand.
The yard was found by Song Ercai and asked Cao Lie to help him, the inside had been cleaned, and the household belongings had been bought and put on the table.
The two entered the door, and the mother-in-law and the two little maids in the carriage behind them began to move things inside.
Before leaving, Song Er went into the county to buy a few people, and then he didn't go back to the town, he didn't have to worry about those things anymore, so he wanted to give his wife and children the best.
However, Chang's is used to being thrifty, except for his inconvenience now, he doesn't care if anyone takes care of him.
On the afternoon of the day the couple arrived, Song Er asked Tang Hai to inform his son.
Approaching the end of the year, the college has also begun to have a holiday.
Song Tian directly packed his things and went home to live, waiting for the end of the year.
The first Chinese New Year changed places, and there was one less person.
Although everything is festive, the family always feels that something is missing, and something is inexplicably wrong.
On the twenty-sixth year of the year, the Cao family's caravan returned, and Song Ercai went over to chat and brought back the two boxes of things and letters.
Chang Shi was very moved when he looked at those small clothes and quilts, and he was relieved to hear that Ah Xiu was doing very well over there.
Song Tian returned to the room with the letter specially given to him, and saw that it was an afternoon, and he called Chang out after eating.
"You, you, since you've read what people wrote, hurry up and reply to the past. Ming'er, your father is going to Cao Mansion, and he will help you bring it over when those caravans pass by at the beginning of the year. ”
Chang also pointed out his son.
But as soon as she finished speaking, her face became a little wrong.
"Mother?"
Song Tian held her.
"Tian'er, go and call someone, I'm afraid I'm going to give birth."
When Song Tian heard this, he panicked, helped her sit next to her, and hurriedly went to the front to call someone.
Song Ercai came here and invited an experienced midwife to his daughter-in-law, Chang's fetus was quite smooth, it was launched before nightfall, and it was born in the middle of the night.
It's a girl, more than six pounds.
In this way, the couple got their wish, and Song Er hugged the mother and cried directly.
The next day, Song Tian mentioned this matter in a letter to Ah Xiu, his sister is very young and has not grown yet, but his father and mother said that he was very similar to him when he was a child, and he would be good-looking when he grew up.
In addition, everything is fine in the academy, and there are many conveniences for the closed disciples who have now become the dean, and those who don't understand can go to him.
And I miss you very much, I want to be together, I want to meet, I want to ......
It was five pages long, and it was almost February when Ah Xiu got it.
After reading the letter, Ah Xiu had a dream, which was different from the previous warnings, but related to him......
The next day, Ah Xiu and Cao Yi went to the ferry and sent the merchant ship to the sea.
After several months of preparation, nearly 100 embroidery workshops in the hands of the Zhuo family have produced semi-cargo ship embroidery, which contains not only ancestral yarn clothes, but also improved new products, flowing color yarn clothes.
The agreement with Wei He and Wei He has clearly defined the category, and at present, the flowing color yarn has been listed, but it is only unique to Zhuojia Embroidery Building.
Cao Yi lit three pillars of incense and handed them to Ah Xiu, and the two followed the boatmen who went to sea to worship the gods and the sky.
The sea breeze lifted the woman's gown, long skirt, and hair draped over her shoulders, and from a distance it looked like she was about to ride the wind, like a goddess descending to earth.
On the high platform not far from the ferry, Wei Zhou stood by the stone railing, staring into the distance, and he didn't know whether he was looking at the person on the boat or the scenery.
He Wenyun walked over slowly, sighed lightly and said, "She was so generous to give us the sari, it turned out to be better." ”
Zhuo's colorful yarn was listed at the end of the year, and it caused a sensation as soon as it was listed.
Now whoever is a man from a wealthy family doesn't come to a colorful gauze coat, and he can't show his identity when he goes out.
When Wei Zhou heard this, he turned his head and arched his hand to He Wenyun and said: "Although the flowing color yarn has its own merits, it does not conflict with our feather dress yarn, and each has its own field. ”
"That's right. Zhuojia Embroidery Workshop has been developing for many years, but I didn't expect that she could break through the ancestors and create new products here. ”
Her business is doing so well, He Wenyun is always uncomfortable somehow, he thinks that his little cousin should be confined to the backyard, attached to men, married and had children, and be a pampered and obedient girl, instead of standing with a group of men like now and showing his face outside.
Thinking of this, He Wenyun said again: "I heard that my cousin has a dumb female embroiderer, and no one can match the drawing and technique? ”
Wei Zhou had also heard about this, but he didn't want to discuss this issue when he stood with He Wenyun.
"It's a good thing to have capable people, after all, we all have a partnership, and if the things in the embroidery workshop are good, it will also be good for us."
He Wenyun nodded, "That's what you said." ”
The first time I went to sea, the route drawn by the ship was not too far, and it took almost half a year to come and go.
It's almost autumn when I travel in February, and it's almost autumn when I come back.
Before leaving, Fu Jian had already let his sister and two children enter the embroidery workshop to work, and he would follow the Zhuo family in the future.
Sending off the merchant ship, Ah Xiu returned to the house, and Yanmo began to send letters to the Song family in Liangzhou.
At present, their own caravans rarely go there, and by the time the two letters from Ah Xiu are delivered, the time has already entered June.
The township examination is held in Fucheng and starts in August every year.
In the imperial examination held every three years, except for students who have made great achievements, they can also participate in the scientific examinations held in each college.
This is much more prosperous than the situation of the prefectural test, and there are still more than two months before the township test, and people have gradually come to the city.
The son hadn't come back for a month, so Song Er brought some clothes and food from home to the academy, and when he entered the hospitality room of the academy, he found that there were many people sitting inside.
Everyone came here to deliver things to their loved ones.
This township examination has to be referred to by the entire Qingyun Academy, and the study has been quite intense since the beginning of the year.
Song Ercai glanced around, not wanting to see acquaintances.
At this time, Hu Ke's second brother Hu Bang also saw him, and the two sat together and talked.
Last year, Hu Ke was also born and studied at Qingyun Academy like Song Tian.
The three brothers of the Hu family, and finally came up with a study, Daddy Hu, also attached great importance to it, and asked Hu Bang to pack up his things and come to Liangzhou to accompany the exam two days ago.
