Chapter 80: Preparing to Enter Beijing

Fast forward to the beginning of November.

In vain, Xie Jingyi prayed every day, this year's wind and rain in Hangzhou were smooth, Xie Baolin and Chai Youchen inspected the counties separately, and came back with black charcoal, which can be regarded as an ideal result. The loan of the green seedlings was repaid smoothly and smoothly, and there was no trouble.

All the local officials in Hangzhou breathed a sigh of relief, broke and rubbed the eighteen points that Xie Jingyi and Chai Youchen had figured out before, combined with the actual situation, carefully worded, and then handed them to the capital, and then they all nervously waited for a response.

In the winter slack period, the whole city seems to be idle, and the number of people who come to the city to catch the market is visible to the naked eye.

Xie Jingyi sat in front of the window, sewing a black robe in his hand, and on the small table next to him, a white robe embroidered with green bamboo was neatly folded, which meant that he was rising step by step.

And the black robe, embroidered are all dark lines, at first glance, almost nothing, until you get closer, only to find that there is a faint koi embroidered on it, which means that the fish leaps over the dragon gate.

Honeysuckle changed a cup of hot tea for Xie Jingyi, and gently withdrew. She just entered the house a month ago, and she used to work as a maid in a family of eunuchs in the capital, but then the family fell into the middle of the road, and she was sold, and she was sold to the Xie family.

Xie Jingyi sewed the last stitch, looking at the shirt and was slightly stunned.

A few days ago, she went to Tianbu Fang, although in the past few months, she has mainly cooperated with Mama Fang, cleaned up the domestic servants, and taught Xie Jingxian and Xie Jingyin, but she still thought about Chai Youchen's explanation, and took time to go to the shop from time to time, took money from the account, went to build bridges, built roads, dug wells, and did the good deeds.

As early as a few days ago, I happened to bump into Chai Youchen, and then I remembered in a trance that Chai Youchen's birthday was not in November.

When he was in the palace in his previous life, the official family always carefully prepared birthday gifts for Chai Youchen early.

Chai Youchen doesn't like the eldest princess, he was raised by the Duke of Qi before, but the Duke of Qi is a big man, he can't even take care of himself, and often throws him in the palace.

The official family is a few years older than Chai Youchen, and he attaches great importance to him.

But no matter how precious the congratulatory gifts are prepared, the official family will always shout, "Ayi Ayi, let's sew a new set of clothes for Chai Er this year, he said that you are skillful, and the clothes you make are the most comfortable to wear." Also black, not too flashy. ”

At that time, Xie Jingyi was always angry and scolded Chai Youchen in his heart, it was definitely this official who valued her, and deliberately wanted to send her to sew clothes. The most hateful thing is that every time it is done, the person has to pick a prick with his nose and eyes, and reluctantly praise a sentence, but there are only four words so-so.

She didn't want to prepare anything, but as soon as she thought of Mama Fang's words and what Xie Jingyin said, Chai Youchen was her friend, so she began to prepare inexplicably.

After all, she got a set of dresses from him, and it was nothing if she got a set.

But now that the shirt is sewn, it can't be sent.

Xie Jingyi thought and sighed heavily.

Qingping raised the curtain when she heard the sound and entered the door, "Why do you sigh the third lady, it's cold this day, can you go out today?" I went to ask, Qing Ju is full of food today, I heard that the little lady is going to ride it out, and I am very happy. ”

Xie Jingyi touched his nose, "Go and ......"

She's Mama Xie, what's there to be afraid of!

Qingping answered, and took out a fiery red cloak from the cage, "Why don't you wear this today, this one looks so good." ”

Xie Jingyi waved her hand, she went to see Chai Youchen, not on a blind date, what are you doing wearing such a festive out?

"No, just wear that blue-gray one, which is more commensurate with the green fungus."

Qingping is speechless, you are a little lady, why do you have to be commensurate with a donkey?

When Honeysuckle first came, every time Xie Jingyi went out, he still took Qingping with him, and the master and servant went to Tianbufang familiarly.

The moment she pushed open the door, Xie Jingyi felt even more weird, as if every time she pushed open the door, she could see Chai Youchen sitting in front of the window drinking tea.

When Chai Youchen saw her coming, he picked up another one and poured her tea.

Xie Jingyi couldn't stand her awkward appearance, and secretly blamed Mama Fang in her heart, it was she who said that, which made her more gentle with the world...... It's a strange feeling.

Thinking about it, she threw the wrapped clothes into Chai Youchen's arms, raised her chin and said, "Oh, it's for you, congratulations on your birthday." ”

Chai Youchen was stunned for a moment, and raised his head in surprise, "Give ...... For me? ”

Xie Jingyi snorted, "It's only you and me here, if you don't give it to you, can it be for a ghost?" ”

As she was talking, she was shocked to find that Chai Youchen on the opposite side actually laughed.

"What are you laughing at? Don't you open it and take a look? Didn't you say last time, you gave me clothes, and I owe you, but now it's settled. ”

Chai Youchen nodded, opened the cloth bag and looked at it, "You can barely see it." ”

Xie Jingyi rolled his eyes speechlessly, "I can only barely get into my eyes when I sew it, how much gold do you have...... Feed! What do you do in public? ”

Talk well, talk well, how can you take off your robe by yourself, it's shameless!

Chai Youchen raised his eyebrows, "I'll try to see if it fits, maybe your craftsmanship is not good, it doesn't fit." ”

Xie Jingyi was angry, look, she just had a problem with her braincase, so she sewed clothes for this person, and sent them to the door by herself to make people dislike.

Chai Youchen changed his clothes with his hands and feet, and Xie Jingyi couldn't help but look at it, "My craftsmanship is really good, no matter how ugly people wear it, it will become a jade tree in the wind!" I thought that you have everything, and there will be no problem in high school next year, so I embroidered koi fish, and I wish you good luck and live a few more days in this life. ”

Chai Youchen rarely didn't say anything, just stretched out his hand, gently touched the koi, and said with a smile, "It will definitely be." ”

Xie Jingyi felt even more frightened now, she raised her hand and pointed at Chai Youchen, "You took the wrong medicine today, why do you keep laughing?" Don't laugh, I'm scared to laugh. ”

Chai Youchen was not annoyed, but smiled slightly, "There is news from the capital, your father should be able to enter Beijing a year ago, although it is said that he is resigned, but the prince has worked hard, and eighty percent is going to stay in Beijing." ”

Xie Jingyi stood up suddenly, "Really? That's just great. My aunt is packing her eldest brother's luggage at home, and she is talking every day that he went to Beijing alone to catch the exam, which is too tiring. Fortunately, she is busy taking care of her younger brother now, otherwise, my eldest brother would have been nagged to death by her. Now it's good that the family has entered Beijing together. ”

Zhai was pregnant for ten months and gave birth to a son, named Xie Jingwei, Xie Baolin was as happy as anything.

Chai Youchen nodded, "I have never lied to you, and a letter will come in a few days." ”
