Chapter 193: Fists are rules
"Glutton!" Shan hated her.
Gu Yunsi smiled, and when she had finished eating, she pulled the Shan family back to the west wing, and finished telling her what Gu Yunjin told her last night.
Shan's face was long, and his eyebrows were full of annoyance, but he still endured his temper and didn't do anything to roll up his sleeves to fight.
"What do you mean?" Shan eased his temper and asked.
Gu Yunsi said in a deep voice: "The gift is still sent, so as not to let the people in Beijing say that we have no rules, and people will not go, we will rush to say hello, that is to disgrace Yunjin." ”
Shan took a sip.
If you want her to say, don't even give gifts, fists are rules, and there is nothing else in the General's Mansion, but fists are hard.
But the capital is not as good as the north, and the one Gu Yunsi wants to marry is the Taishi Mansion, so she has to be more or less scrupulous.
patting his daughter's hand, Shan nodded and said, "Then according to your wishes, only give gifts." Let's look at the house first, just entered Beijing, there are too many things, and there is no time to rub with them at the moment. ”
said it was a gift, but the gift list was rewritten, and several valuable goods were all erased, and the final list was so decent that everyone knew at a glance that it was barely face.
A mother-in-law sent a gift to the Shilang Mansion, and the Shan family did not mention the visit.
This attitude of turning straight down, Gu Yunjin knows it, and the Xu family also knows it.
On the contrary, Gu Yunyan, who had just come from the Beisan Hutong, did not know about it, and Gu Yunsi said it again in private.
This Shan clan urged to go out to see the house, Gu Yunsi naturally didn't have time to speak so carefully, Gu Yunyan listened to a rough idea, only knew that there was a commotion in Beijing, so he asked the little guy to hurry up and inquire.
Fixing a house is the most important thing at the moment.
The carriage went to Xilin Hutong, and the old servants of the Zhu family received the letter yesterday and came out to meet them.
Shan stood outside the gate, looked left and right at the alley, and asked the old servant, "Is this Xilin Hutong?" Does Lord Qin of Guanglu Temple also live here? ”
The old servant replied with a smile: "Lord Qin's house is in front, have you seen it, the osmanthus flower in front is theirs." ”
Shan looked over, and saw that in the house, there were a few osmanthus trees above the courtyard wall, and the flowers had not yet withered, and the fragrance came with the wind, she bowed her head and said: "I am friends with Lord Qin's wife, and I often exchange letters, so I know that her family lives in Xilin Hutong. ”
"That's a coincidence, if you stay here in the future, you don't have to take a sedan chair." The old servant replied.
Shan Shiguaner.
After entering the house and looking around, Shan was very satisfied.
She knew that every inch of land in Beijing was expensive, and the house she bought could not be as satisfactory as the self-built General's Mansion.
Before she entered Beijing, she pondered that as long as the four-room house was passable and did not lose the prestige of the general's mansion, she could live in it.
After all, time is also tight, and Gu Yunsi's wedding can't afford to delay.
Unexpectedly, the house picked by the four-room is very likable.
Shan is a straightforward person, he didn't grind, he asked the price, and he felt quite reasonable, so there was no bargaining, and the board was set.
"Don't blame us for not making a decision before, it's settled and urgent, it's really a big family, and we have to do a happy event in the spring," Shan said with a smile, "Let's do the deed in the next two days." ”
The old servant doesn't shirk, he can go to the yamen at any time.
This transaction was brokered by the Ningguo Mansion, and the Zhenbei General's Mansion was a real family, so he wouldn't mess with the old lady's hard work if he looked at it, and the price was right, so he was naturally happy to finish it earlier.
The matter of the transfer was handed over to Gu Yunyan, and the Shan family handed a post to the Qin family, saying that they would visit in a few days, and then took people back to Pearl Lane.
In the yamen, everything has an agenda.
Gu Yunyan has also dealt with the yamen a lot in the north, and he knows that it is much more convenient to do things with connections, but when he first came to the capital, he didn't know a few people, so he had to be patient and follow the rules step by step.
Who knew that as soon as the front foot entered the yamen, there was an experience on the back foot to ask, knowing that it was the Zhenbei General's Mansion that wanted to buy the Zhu family house in Xilin Hutong, and immediately politely led people in.
After experiencing the surname Miao, he was quick in his work, spoke politely and thoughtfully, and it didn't take much effort for the matter to be done, and he sent Gu Yunyan out of the door.
The more Gu Yunyan pondered, the more strange it became, and he turned his head and asked the little guy: "Why do I think that Miao is better than those officials in the Northland?" ”
The little guy was stunned for a moment, and replied: "Master, you and several masters are talking to officials such as Fu Yin and political envoys in the north, and the little experience can't reach you, if they come, don't they have to talk to you in a good voice." ”
Gu Yunyan shook his head and said, "But this is the capital, not the north." ”
The most important thing in the capital is the powerful, and his father went to the yamen in person, only he was the son of the general's mansion who had just entered the capital, and he was not enough to let the yamen be cautious, and he would do it in a hurry.
This Gu Yunyan was still puzzled, and Miao Xiang shook his head while humming a small song, beckoned an errand runner to come to him, and ordered: "Go and talk to Tingfeng, it's done." ”
Early in the morning, I came to greet the wind, saying that the general's mansion may have to be transferred in the past two days, and if people are not familiar with the place, please take care of it in the yamen.
Although the little grandfather is not in the capital, listening to the wind and doing things is what the little grandfather means, and Miao's experience is naturally very thorough.
And Gu Yunyan, who left the yamen, didn't doubt it for long, and was so angry that he couldn't take care of those.
The little guy who went to inquire about Gu Yunjin came back and explained all the stories that Dr. Cha had said.
Gu Yunyan's face turned blue, and he said coldly: "Pushing down the pool, causing Yun Jin to be sick for several days?" Sanwu went to Beisan Hutong from time to time to annoy and was beaten out? Talking nonsense all day long, being smashed and beaten by Yun Jin? ”
The little guy nodded bitterly.
"Tsk!" Gu Yunyan dropped his sleeves and walked towards Pearl Lane, if this was in the Northland, a white-faced scholar, he could clean it up so much that he couldn't climb up.
The little guy didn't know that Gu Yunyan was angry, and hurriedly said, "Master, the sixth girl beat him." ”
"Is that what she calls a beating?" Gu Yunyan glanced sideways, "With her thin arms and legs, can she break bones or teeth?" It's cheaper than the one surnamed Yang. ”
After entering Pearl Lane, Gu Yunyan went to the second courtyard with a straight face, and when he looked up, he saw that the three younger sisters had changed their clothes for practice, and stood side by side in the patio to take steps.
Brother Feng, who is not too young, has also begun to practice the foundation, and Zama Bu is also proficient, so he follows behind his aunts.
Sister Qiao is too small, partial and clingy, pouting her little ass and learning to follow.
Gu Yunsi has practiced seriously, and muttered to Gu Yunjin about practicing boxing and marksmanship: "Nian Xia has never practiced guns, right?" I'll teach you later. ”
Gu Yunjin smiled and was about to respond, but saw Gu Yunyan coming.
"Your marksmanship is just playing," Gu Yunyan said, "It's a small place here, you can't play it, Yun Qi will go back to the barracks after the New Year, and there is no way to teach you from the beginning, it just so happens that Brother Feng also has to practice, Yunjin has to learn, and when we move to Xilin Hutong, I will teach you."
Boxing, marksmanship, horsemanship, bows and arrows, whatever you want to learn, I will teach you the same. ”
Gu Yunjin was stunned when he heard this, and when he saw that Gu Yunyan was not joking, he really looked like he wanted to teach seriously, so he nodded in response.
Since she woke up, she has always wanted to study hard.
Gu Yunyan saw that she deserved to be solemn, and also nodded.
The girl in the General's Mansion either doesn't use her hands, or she will be able to break bones if she does it.
That's what he thought.
