113 days of help
In the afternoon, after Duanmuxian and Li Chuanting sent the three juniors out to play, the two had a secret conversation here. ◢ With * dream * small ◢.1a
Li Chuanting mentioned that there had been a lot of homeless people in the capital recently, and he lamented that he had gone north all the way, and he had also seen many homeless people coming in the direction of the capital, scattered and scattered, about 1,000 people.
Since ancient times, homeless people are the easiest to become **, and Duanmuxian does not dare to underestimate it.
And recently there have been a lot of displaced people inside and outside Beijing, these displaced people are becoming more and more restless, for example, a few days ago, there was a group of displaced people on the side of the grain street There was a riot, several grain stores were robbed, for this reason, Jingzhao Mansion Yin was summoned by the emperor and reprimanded. Recently, Jingzhao Prefecture has also sent additional personnel to patrol several places where there are many displaced people.
Duanmuxian knew that Li Chuanting was hinting that he had to prepare early.
If these nearly 1,000 displaced people poured into the capital all at once, the impact on the capital can be imagined.
It's not easy.
Although it is the capital that is in chaos now, Jingzhao Mansion should be responsible, but a large number of displaced people go north, which means that the disaster relief is not effective, and as the head of the household department, he has a heavy responsibility.
He also wants to provide disaster relief, but the treasury is empty and there is no money!
Thinking about it, Duanmu Xian's eyes were slightly dark, and his face was solemn.
He called Duanmufei to the study to hear her opinion, but he felt that the matter was big, and Duanmufei was still young after all......
Duanmu Fei raised her head from the chess game, and rewarded her with a good game of chess, which made her feel quite good, and she had a smile on her little face.
Looking at Duanmu Xian's face sinking like water, she tilted her head and asked directly, "Did the second uncle and grandfather say something?" What she thought in her heart was that she should go straight to the topic as soon as possible and finish the conversation as soon as possible, so that she could go back to Zhanqing Courtyard to wash and sleep
Duanmu Xian lifted his eyelids and said slowly: "Fourth girl, your second uncle told me today that a large number of homeless people will soon go north to the capital......" There was still a bit of hesitation in his tone, so he didn't specifically say what this matter had to do with Shangshufu.
Duanmu Fei was accidentally hooked by the chess game again, not only her heart was itchy, but her hands were also itchy, she picked up a sunspot from the chess box and played with it in her hand.
The afterglow of the setting sun gilded her white fingers and jet-black chess pieces with a golden halo, which was very beautiful.
"Grandfather, the disaster relief is not effective because the treasury is empty, and my grandfather might as well go to the emperor to open the sea ban!" Her eyes sparkled as she looked at the chess game, as if she had made a casual suggestion.
Just a few words to the point.
Duanmu Xian's eyes flashed slightly, the sea is forbidden?! How could he not have thought of it!
More than 100 years ago, when the Dasheng Dynasty was first established, the Quartet was still unsettled, and Emperor Taizu ordered the implementation of a sea ban in order to prevent the remnants of the previous dynasty from being disturbed by the Japanese and the Japanese invaders.
Until 16 years ago, during the reign of the puppet emperor, with the support of the eldest princess of Anping, the sea ban was once opened, but with the prosperity of maritime trade, the sea was flooded, disturbing the coast.
With today's character, once this will is out, he probably won't beat himself in black and white.
Duanmu Fei knew in his heart what Duanmu Xian was afraid of, but he didn't say anything, as if he didn't realize it: "Grandfather, once the sea ban is opened, you can greatly promote maritime trade and increase taxes." The treasury would not be so stretched, and that is the credit of my grandfather...... So, who will be the grandfather of the first assistant in the future?! ”
Shousuke?! Duanmu Xian squinted slightly, and his heart was shocked again. He just casually mentioned to Duanmu Fei last time that Liu Shoufu was about to become a minister, and she actually had such a vision, thinking of the battle between Shoufu and Shoufu?!
"Hey!" Duanmu Fei sighed helplessly, and pretended to be distressed and said, "Grandfather, I also know that even if my grandfather has the heart to promote the sea ban, it is not easy, but in the past two years, disasters have occurred everywhere, even if this rebellion of the displaced people can control the overall situation, what about the next time?" If there is no more income from the national treasury, if there is any more disaster or war this winter, I am afraid that the national capital will be shaken......"
Duanmu Xian's pupils shrank, and the last sentence Duanmu Fei said was exactly what he was worried about during this time, if there was another disaster, would Dasheng still be able to support it?! But the sea is forbidden, and with his own strength, I'm afraid it won't be possible......
At this time, Duanmu Fei suddenly smiled, as if he had thought of something, and landed the sunspot in his hand on the chessboard, his originally slightly frowning brows stretched, and his eyes were shining.
Duanmuxian originally only played casually as if she was a child, but when the corner of his eyes casually swept over the chessboard, his eyes were slightly dumbfounded.
When Duanmu's sunspot fell, the chess game that was originally glued to each other changed dramatically in an instant, and the scattered sunspots were suddenly connected together to form a winding black dragon.
Duanmu Xian's deep and complex eyes seemed to have a turbulent wave......
After a long time, he finally calmed down, and there was a thoughtful look between his eyebrows.
It may not be easy for him alone to persuade the emperor to open the sea ban, but he forgot that as long as it is for the common good, he can naturally unite several forces, such as the Li family.
If he wants to open the sea ban, he needs the support of the Li family, and for the Li family, the sea ban means that Minzhou's status in Dasheng will become more important, so the Li family will naturally rise all boats.
Once the treasury is abundant in the future, it will be able to make Long Yan happy, and there will be no suspense in the position of the first assistant!
The ban on opening the sea may cause a lot of obstacles for a while, but as the saying goes, wealth is in danger, and if you want to make a profit, you must take risks.
He is a member of the household department, in charge of the entire Dasheng land, taxes, household registration, military supplies, salaries, food and salary, and financial revenue and expenditure......
How far his career can go, maybe it depends on this time!
Thinking about it, Duanmu Xian couldn't help but carefully look at Duanmu Fei's cute little face, his eyes were shining, and his eyes seemed to be kind with a touch of heat.
With Sun like this, it's really a heavenly help to the Duanmu clan!
"Mo Yan, go and get my Longjing and make one for the four girls." Duanmu Xian called a little girl with a smile, looking like he was going to continue a long conversation with Duanmu Fei, completely forgetting that his granddaughter was not yet ten years old.
In the fragrance of tea and the whispering of tea, the night completely fell, and it was dark outside the window, and two sheep's horn palace lamps were lit in the study, emitting a brilliant light......
"Boom! Phew! ”
When the gong sounded on the second watch, Duanmu Fei returned to Zhanqing Courtyard.
"Zhenzhen, you're hungry!"
Duanmujun had been waiting in the east room for a long time. She thought that Duanmuxian was just calling Duanmu Fei to ask a few words of homework, but she didn't expect that this trip would be more than an hour.
My sister is not yet ten years old, and the homework assigned by my grandfather is inevitably too heavy!
Seeing that Duanmu Fei had finally come back at this moment, Duanmu Jun pulled her down on the Luohan bed with concern, shhh
On the autumn night, the air is fresh, the night breeze blows away the fatigue of the day, and after a while, Duanmu Fei is blowing the night breeze by the window, comfortably holding a cup of pumpkin and lily sweet soup to eat.
The sweet soup was lukewarm, just in the mouth, and she slowly scooped the sweet soup spoonful, the corners of her lips curved.
Duanmufei ate satisfied, but in Duanmujun's eyes, he only felt that his sister must be hungry, and she was very distressed, and she babbled in her mouth:
"Zhenzhen, what extra homework did Grandpa give you?"
"If you're tired, don't put up with it, my sister will go and talk to my grandfather to lighten up some homework."
"When you are still young, you must not be tired when you are still growing ......"
“……”
Duanmu ate supper with relish, listening to Duanmujun's advice with a smile, and his heart was warm.
After swallowing the last mouthful of sweet soup, she wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief, nodded and said obediently, "Sister, I will go to bed early at night." Then, she quietly changed the topic, "Tomorrow morning is a calligraphy and painting class, right?" ”
Duanmujun answered, remembering that Duanmufei's painting tools for class were not ready, and he was about to tell the pothos, but before the words could be spoken, he remembered another thing, and changed his words and asked: "Zhenzhen, have you completed the homework assigned by Mr. Yuan last time?" ”
Mr. Yuan is a gentleman who specializes in teaching them calligraphy and painting.
Duanmu's body stiffened, and there was a rare hint of surprise on his little face, "Sister, I'll paint it right away." She really forgot the homework assigned by Mr. Yuan.
Seeing his sister's cute little appearance, Duanmujun's heart was almost happy, and he said softly: "Don't worry, I'll help you draw together!" ”
Duanmu Jun pulled Duanmu Fei to her small study, and instructed Jin Se to serve the pen and ink, and it seemed that he was eager to write for his sister.
"Zhen Zhen, Mr. Yuan asked us to paint flowers and plants, peonies and autumn chrysanthemums are too complicated...... It's not too early today, so let's just draw a simple bluegrass. Duanmujun pointed to a pot of bluegrass in the corner and said, thinking that he could paint according to this pot of bluegrass.
"The wolf is too hard, and the bluegrass should be used at the same time." Duanmu smiled and took a cigarette from the pen holder.
Jin Se, who was about to grind the ink on the side, asked for instructions: "Fourth girl, the slave maid will grind the ink for the girl." ”
Painting orchid with light ink can show the moistness of orchid.
Duanmu Jun nodded slightly with satisfaction, although there are many things wrong with this Jinse, it is good to serve the pen and ink, and her sister really has the wisdom to know people!
After Jinse finished grinding the ink, Duanmu Fei took the pen and painted, and Duanmu Jun mentioned from time to time on the side:
"The strokes are sharp, and the brushes are not flashy."
"Use the pen to be virtual and real, don't use a force to the end!"
"The layout has to be prioritized."
“……”
Without a stick of incense, Duanmu Fei drew a patchwork of orchids, which was the essence of the pot of orchids in front of him.
It's just that this season is not the time for orchids to bloom, there is grass but no orchids in this painting, and I really feel that something is missing.
"Zhenzhen, I'll add more orchids to you!" Duanmujun couldn't help but pick up the pen that Duanmu had just put down, and from the other side of the bookcase, brushed a few strokes, and a small and delicate orchid bloomed quietly in the leaves.
Duanmu tilted his head to look at the painting in front of him, and proposed: "Sister, if there are flowers without butterflies, if there is no fragrance, shall we add another butterfly?" ”
"Zhenzhen, what you said is true!"
Duanmujun's eyebrows lit up, and he seemed to have completely forgotten that this was Duanmufei's homework, and he happily took the pen and added a few more strokes, so there was an extra butterfly fluttering its wings among the orchids.
"The fragrance of flowers attracts butterflies and butterflies love flowers." Duanmujun smiled with satisfaction and put down the pen in his hand, "When I hand in my homework, I will frame this painting and hang it in my small study!" This is the first painting the sisters have done together.
Duanmu scarped his palm, and between the words, the sisters went out happily, leaving Jin Se alone in the study, looking at the sketch of the butterfly playing orchid in a daze, with a somewhat complicated expression.
She has been waiting for pen and ink by Duanmufei's side for nearly three months, and she goes to the boudoir school every day to attend classes, and has witnessed the calligraphy and painting of the four girls from the beginning to the beginning of the unsightly to now obviously touching the doorway.
Although this bluegrass is simple, it has its own bones.
Jin Se unhurriedly put away the pen and ink on the desk, and then closed the window of the small study, closing the bright moon and stars in the night sky......
The night flew by, and Duanmufei and Duanmujun, who had rested for a day, returned to their original routines and went to Xuanji Hall early in the morning.
When Mr. Yuan arrived, the first thing he did was to check the homework of the girls.
At a glance, the girls' paintings are colorful, some of them painted "National Color and Heavenly Fragrance Map", some painted "Yutang Wealth Map", and some painted "Ammonite Picture...... In contrast, Duanmu Fei's sketch of ink orchid is overshadowed.
After Mr. Yuan casually praised "flexible and strong, natural and sparse", he went to look at other people's paintings.
After each girl's paintings were evaluated, she began to teach the method, which was widely used in landscape painting, but today Mr. Yuan was to teach the girls to draw birds, so he simply taught two methods of rubbing feathers, and then demonstratively painted a vivid finch for the girl, and then assigned homework to let them draw a picture of birds in class.
Jin Se immediately took out a few brushes from the paintyard box, put them on the pen stand on the side, and then took the initiative to grind the ink, one side of the thick ink, the other side of the light ink.
Duanmufei casually picked up the sweet and sour sherbet on the side, took a sip, and casually looked at the courtyard outside the window, thinking: What is she good at drawing?
"Fourth sister."
Suddenly, a delicate and crisp cry sounded in her ears.
Duanmu Scarlet looked at the sound, a six or seven-year-old little girl wearing a duck-yellow tuanhua carved silk jacket was standing next to the bookcase and looking at her, the little girl's round face, combed a mustache on her head, wrapped around a string of glass beads, very cute.
"Sixth sister." Duanmu smiled and bowed his head in greeting, and put down the white porcelain cup in his hand.
This little girl is the sixth girl in the fourth room, just six years old this year, named Duanmu Xuan.
"Fourth sister, what are you drinking?" Duanmu pointed to the magenta juice in the white porcelain cup and asked with a smile.
Duanmu smiled and said, "This is the pomegranate juice I just squeezed this morning." ”
"The fourth sister is so skillful." Duanmu Xuan's big black eyes flickered, and he looked at her expectantly, "Fourth sister, can you share a cup with me?" "This pomegranate juice is bright in color and has a faint fruity aroma, which is very delicious at first sight.
Seeing that the little girl looked salivating, Duanmu replied with a smile: "I'll ask the maid to go back and get another pot for the sixth sister." In front of Duanmuli, she ordered the pothos.
"Thank you, Fourth Sister!" Duanmu was busy and blessed, smiling.
At this time, Duanmu Qian remembered that she came to find Duanmu Fei, so he salivated and asked her to borrow a wolf pen.
Jin Se on the side wanted to speak and stopped, this was the only wolf pen she had prepared for Duanmu Fei today to outline the lines, but she still didn't say anything after all.
Duanmu took the pen, thanked Duanmu Fei again, and left happily, saying in his heart: The fourth sister is still kind and generous, where is it like the third sister, if you don't borrow it, forget it, and sneer a sentence or two.
Seeing the little girl in the duck yellow dress running back to her seat, Duanmu Scarlet thought about it.
Pregnant!
She came to draw a picture of a chick pecking rice.
The fluffy chicks do not need to use wolf hair to outline the line, and can be drawn directly with both hair and soft hair.
She couldn't help but draw a lot, and after examining Duanmu Xuan, who was dipping in ink in front of her, she began to write......
Brush brush brush.
The pen is like a god.
On this day, I didn't go to school until the beginning of the afternoon.
In the distance, I saw the cicada standing in the shade of the tree guarding the door of the Zhanqing Courtyard, probing his brain.
"Four girls."
As soon as he saw Duanmu Fei coming back, Bi Chan ran up to greet him diligently, and waited before and after the saddle, just to take Duanmu Fei as an old lady to support him.
Looking at Bi Chan's obedient little appearance, Duanmu Fei knew that she had something to say, so she couldn't help but laugh and went in the direction of the small study.
Duanmufei walked to a circle chair near the window and sat down, the green pothos was busy making tea, and Jin Se sorted out the calligraphy and paintings in the rattan bookcase one by one, and his movements were familiar. When she unfolded the picture of a chicken pecking rice that Duanmufei had just drawn in class today, she couldn't help but pause, her eyes flashing slightly.
The picture of the chick pecking the rice drawn by the four girls in class today is very simple in terms of composition and technique, but under the brushstrokes of the four girls, the three immature chicks are particularly interesting and vivid, one looks around timidly, one greedily pecks at millet, and the other pecks at the tail of the second.
She thought that she asked her to draw the same picture, and she may be better than the fourth girl in terms of technique, but she can't catch up with the agility of this one...... There are also four girls' chess skills, and now they are far from being their opponents.
The four girls' studies are advancing by leaps and bounds, and I am afraid that they will soon be out of reach.
Is there really a so-called outstanding person in this world?
Jin Se stood stunned for a while, and Fang continued to get busy, carefully rolled up the drawing paper, and put it into the painting tube on the side.
Duanmu Fei took the warm handkerchief from Bi Chan's hand and applied it to his face, wiped the dust off his face, and then took the tea that had just been brewed by the pothos, and after taking two sips, he felt warm and comfortable.
Bi Chan put away the veil and said on the side: "Fourth girl, I sent someone to see the second lady from the Lu Mansion early this morning." ”
Duanmu raised her eyebrows, "Did you find out what they said?" ”
Duanmu asked in a light tone, picked up a chess book casually, and the next moment, Jin Se seemed to have a heart with her, opening the two chess boxes placed on the side of the chessboard.
Duanmu glanced at Jin Se with a smile, she always knew that Jin Se was careful, although this maid was sold into slavery, but her former arrogance was undiminished...... Training such a maid must be "talented" to convince people, which is very interesting.
The fragrance of wood hibiscus wafted through the window, and Duanmu Fei was in a good mood, picking up a sunspot and playing chess.
Bi Chan said carefully: "Girl, the slave maid was talking about it when she heard the two little maids in Qionghua Courtyard chatting, and the grandmother from Lu Mansion said that their wife had calmed down in the past two days, and she felt that she was too impulsive before, so she was ordered to compensate the second lady." He also said that the Qingyuan Bofu wanted to arrange for Yang Sangongzi and the eldest girl to see each other again, but the second lady did not respond immediately, only said that the house has been busy recently, and she has to pick a good day......"
Bi Chan said it in an orderly manner, and Duanmu Fei listened to it while leisurely following the chess game, and was quite satisfied with Bi Chan's performance.
Recently, the three personal maids have been getting better, and Duanmu Fei feels that his life is getting more and more comfortable. Very good!
As for the Lu Mansion and Qingyuan Bo Mansion, Duanmu Fei didn't take it to heart, anyway, as long as Duanmu Xian knew about the Lu family's arrival, it would not be her turn to worry about it later, with Duanmu Xian in the front, she didn't have to bother at all.
At this time, I saw the curtain of Xiangfei flickering, and Duanmu Jun came in with wisteria one after another.
"Zhenzhen, after lunch, let's go to Changxing Street together." Duanmu Jun said with a smile.
Duanmu tilted his head, immediately remembered something, and asked, "Is my sister planning to go and see our shop?" ”
Previously, the He family divided a Zhuangzi and a shop for her to manage first, and the shop was on Changxing Street, and the shop was rented out and charged a monthly rent.
Duanmujun nodded: "Originally, the lease of that shop would not expire until the end of the year, but Master Jiang said that he planned to return to his hometown in Jiangnan and would not renew the lease." In fact, the annual rent of this shop is only more than 70 taels of silver, so I thought that I would simply stop renting, and the two of us went over to see what kind of shop we opened to practice. ”
Duanmu Fei thought this was a good idea, and said with great interest: "Sister, I remember that the shop written on the deed is the layout of the front shop and the back yard, right?" In the future, no matter what our shop sells, it must be taken care of by someone, just open the door in front to do business, and use it to live in the back. ”
Duanmujun also thought so, and praised with a smile: "Zhen Zhen is really thoughtful when you think about it." Later, we'll go to Changxing Street to see what kind of business that shop is suitable for......"
While the two sisters were talking, Mama Zhang came to call the two to dinner...... Before that, the carriage of the two of them drove out of the corner gate on one side and sped away towards Changxing Street in the east of the city.
After a stick of incense, we arrived at Changxing Street, and the speed gradually slowed down.
Changxing Street is also a street as its name, the street is full of traffic, all kinds of passers-by walk through it, mixed with the warm greetings of some guys on the side of the road, it is one of the most lively and prosperous areas in the east of the city.
The carriage soon stopped in front of a shop called "Xiang Ming", which was deserted, the red lacquered wood shelves were half empty, and a man in Tsing Yi was stockpiling goods with a few sheets.
When the guy saw a guest coming to the door, he looked over with a smile and greeted: "Two girls, please feel free to take a look, my shop is an old shop in the capital for more than ten years, and the tea sold is well-known......
The guy was selling, the curtain of the door flipped, and out of the inner hall came a slender girl of fourteen or fifteen years old.
The girl who was in the middle of the bloom was wearing a lilac-colored collared orchid embroidered long jacket, a horse-faced skirt below, a long black hair pulled into a meniscus bun, a pearl pendant and a small silver phoenix hairpin inserted in the sideburns, a white skin was as delicate and moist as the first snow, and the melon seed face was bright and bright, pure and pretty.
Duanmu Fei and the girl looked at each other, both of them were stunned, the other party couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips slightly, overflowing with the brightness of a spring lake, and blurted out: "Duanmu girl!" ”
She is the girl who was bumped by a group of homeless people at the foot of Qianfeng Mountain on the day of the Double Ninth Festival!
She seemed to be much thinner than she was half a month ago, and her chin was pointed, as if a gust of wind would float away.
When the guy on the side heard the surname "Duanmu", he suddenly realized that this shop was renting the property of the Duanmu family, so he nodded and said: "Two Duanmu girls, the shop still needs to be cleaned up for a few more days, and please be accommodating......"
Duanmujun said kindly: "Don't worry, my sister and I are here to see the shop today." ”
The guy breathed a sigh of relief, thanked him repeatedly, and went to inventory again.
"Zhenzhen, do you know this girl?" Duanmu Jun asked in surprise.
"It's just a one-sided relationship before." Duanmufei replied simply, it is inconvenient to talk about what happened on the day of the Double Ninth Festival in a crowded place.
The girl gave Duanmu a grateful look and said politely: "My surname is Jiang, and this shop is rented by my father." Come with me to the back and talk. ”
Duanmu bowed slightly, and the three of them lifted the curtain into the inner hall.
In the inner hall, the window sashes on both sides are wide open, clear and bright, and the air is filled with a faint fragrance of tea.
Duanmujun and Duanmufei looked around quietly, the Jiang family has been able to open in the capital for more than ten years, obviously they have managed it with their hearts, the house is well maintained, and all kinds of furniture are also very elegant.
After Miss Jiang invited the sisters to sit down, she ordered the maid to serve tea, and then, she cautiously blessed Duanmu Fei, and thanked: "Duanmu girl, thank you so much on the day of the Double Ninth Festival...... I will always remember it! ”
As she spoke, Miss Jiang's eyes were red, and she wanted to cry, and her pretty little face had a touch of pity and pity.
This fifteen-year-old girl, who was no more than fifteen years old at most, was originally innocent and lively, but now there was a faint sadness between her eyebrows.
Duanmu Fei's heart moved, and he vaguely guessed something, and said tentatively: "Miss Jiang, could it be that your family rushed back to Jiangnan to have something to do with the events of that day......
Miss Jiang wiped the corners of her eyes with a silk handkerchief, and her dark eyes were as clear and pure as the night sky after the rain.
She nodded with difficulty and whispered, "What happened that day...... In order to protect me, my father and mother decided to take me and my two brothers back to their hometown and leave this place. ”
Thinking of what happened that day in Chongyang, Miss Jiang was in a fluctuating mood again, feeling aggrieved, apologetic, and even more dazed.
On that day, she only gave the pastry to the little beggar for a moment of kindness, but how did things get to that point later?! Not only was her own reputation affected, but even her parents were burdened by her and had to let go of all this in the capital......
For her, she grew up in the capital and has no memory of Jiangnan for a long time, it is just a strange place.
To this day, when she thinks back to everything that happened on that day of Chongyang, she feels like a nightmare, even if her parents and two brothers persuade her that it was not her fault......
At this moment, any consolation pales. Duanmu Fei sighed secretly in his heart, picked up the blue and white porcelain teacup on the side, and drank the tea silently, feeling chaotic for a while.
The difficulty of the displaced people began with natural disasters, but if the imperial court was able to provide disaster relief, why would the displaced people leave their hometowns and go to the capital to fight for a way to live.
She was born in the capital since she was a child, grew up in the capital, the capital is prosperous, and she sings and dances, but is it really a prosperous and prosperous era as described by those literati and Moshi under the rule of Dasheng? !
Today is so extravagant, the world is not extravagant.
If we continue to be extravagant and extravagant, even if we open the sea ban, it will only open source and not throttle, and I am afraid it will only solve the temporary difficulties of Dasheng......
If this goes on for a long time, how long can this prosperous world be stable?
Thinking about it, Duanmufei's thoughts flew up, and his heart was heavy.
After drinking half a cup of tea, Miss Jiang calmed down a lot, the corners of her lips curled slightly, and she said generously: "Duanmu girl, Duanmu fourth girl, unfortunately my parents and two brothers are out today, so I will take the two of you to walk around the shop casually." ”
After that, Miss Jiang led Duanmufei and Duanmujun around the front and back of the shop.
This shop looks small from the shop, the inside is very spacious, the front shop is two bays, in the backyard in addition to the two main rooms facing north and south, there are also east and west wings, and the back cover room can be used as a warehouse.
In the small courtyard, there is a clean bluestone brick floor, a few green bamboos are planted on one side, a few bushes are planted on the other side, and a few pots of chrysanthemums and a water tank are also placed, which is peaceful and peaceful.
Miss Jiang introduced this place from time to time, her tone was calm, and there was a faint hint of nostalgia and reluctance:
"We usually live in the back yard here, and there is a back door in the backyard, which is very convenient for unloading and accessing."
"My father said that although this shop is not big, it is in a good location, just in the middle of Changxing Street."
"There is a teahouse next door, and sometimes those customers come here to buy tea when they come out of the teahouse......"
“……”
Duanmujun and Duanmufei are quite satisfied with this shop, which is not eye-catching on the bustling Changxing Street, but for their sisters, it is just right.
They don't plan to do any big business, they just want to get a little business and practice their hands, and when they get back the Li family's dowry in the future, they won't be in a hurry and be deceived by some subordinates who bully the master.
After reading the shop, the sisters said goodbye, and Miss Jiang personally sent the two to the door of the shop.
Duanmu said with a smile: "Miss Jiang doesn't have to send each other, my sister and I are still planning to take a walk around Changxing Street...... "They want to see what other shops are around, so as not to collide with other shops."
Between the words, I saw a tall figure with some familiar eyes walking out of the Heyun teahouse next door.
The man in his thirties wore a navy blue brocade robe with a silver silk tuft pattern, and a black jasper belt was tied around his waist. Behind him followed by a white-faced and beardless young man in Tsing Yi.
Not only Duanmu Fei and Duanmu Jun saw him, but the other party also saw them, and the corners of their mouths hooked.
The two sisters hurriedly took a few steps forward and blessed him, "I've seen Master Mu." ”
This man is the emperor who went out on patrol in micro-clothes.
The emperor was also a little surprised when he looked at the two sisters, his gaze swept over the two, and he paused for a moment on Duanmujun's face.
Today's Duanmujun is wearing a long shirt with a red dark makeup collar and a light pink embroidered horse-faced skirt, with a bright moon in his ears, like a faint flush on his jade cheeks, like a blooming begonia, bright and moving.
The emperor raised his eyes and looked at the signboard above the shop, his face showed a clear expression, and he smiled kindly: "It turned out to be a girl from the Duanmu family, why don't you two come here to buy tea today?" ”
"Back to my lord, my sister and I are not here to buy tea. This shop was originally a dowry left by my late mother, and recently the store was going to quit the rent, so I brought my sister over to have a look. Duanmujun simply explained the ins and outs.
The emperor smiled and said, "I was just going to buy tea, you can accompany me to see ......"
Before he could finish speaking, a short gray figure suddenly burst out of a small alley behind him, and a ragged beggar rushed towards the emperor like a fierce little beast.
"Be careful!"
The girl Jiang who was at the door of the store let out a nervous exclamation, her little face was slightly pale, but it was too late, and the emperor had been stumbled from the side by the little beggar.
After the little beggar hit someone, he didn't apologize, and ran to the other end.
"Sir!" The accompanying servant nervously held the emperor with his eyebrows tightly locked, and he was sincerely afraid.
Duanmu Fei immediately noticed that something was missing from the emperor, and hurriedly said: "Master Mu, your purse!" ”
Everyone looked at the emperor's waist, only to find that it was empty-
The gourd-shaped purse embroidered with lake-blue silver thread that originally hung on the waist was gone!
By the time they tried to find the little beggar again, the other party had already disappeared without a trace......
The emperor's face was blue and white, and the color changed wonderfully.
Duanmu Jun and Duanmu Fei secretly looked at each other, for the emperor, being stolen a purse is small and small, such a loss, the emperor will definitely not put it in his eyes, but it is big and big, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, on the root of the imperial city, the emperor was robbed by an insignificant little beggar, this is a joke!
