Chapter 331: Not like a young man

In Xia Yi's opinion, Jiang Muyuan's good reputation among the people is all real.

With Jiang Muyuan's background, he doesn't need to work so hard at all, but on the contrary, he is down-to-earth and cares about the people.

Xia Yi thought more than once that marrying such an outstanding little grandfather, Miss Gu would definitely be able to live well, and Xia Yi also hoped that she could live well.

Sitting on the pestle and thinking about it randomly, the medicine was decocted, and Xia Yi poured it out and sent it to Huang Yin.

Huang Yin was closing his eyes to recuperate, coughing a few times from time to time, hearing the movement, he opened his eyes and looked at Xia Yi, and said, "Thank you for your hard work, not only to see a doctor, but also to decoct medicine." ”

Xia Yi put the medicine bowl on the head of the bed and said with a smile: "What's this, until last summer, I was still the medicine boy by the side of Imperial Doctor Wu, isn't what the medicine boy does is to write prescriptions, catch medicine, and decoct medicine." ”

has been an official in Beijing for many years, and Huang Yin also knows Xia Yi's father, Xia Taiyi, so he feels a little bit towards Xia Yi's younger nephew.

Huang Yin looked at Xia Yi for a while, then shook his head with a smile: "You are about the same age as the little grandfather, right?" Young is good. ”

Xia Yi was stunned when he heard this, and just as he was thinking about opening his mouth, Huang Yin had already continued.

"I had a drink with the little grandfather last night, and I was drunk and confused, and I said something to him that shouldn't have been said," Huang Yin said, "But now that I think about it, I don't seem to be talking to a young man, obviously not as good as the weak crown, you look transparent, and the little grandfather is steady, but I'm over forty years old, and I don't look a little down-to-earth." ”

Xia Yi smiled.

Huang Yin said to himself, Xia Yi was a listener, and waited until the soup was not so hot and could be eaten, and then Huang Yin took the medicine bowl and drank it all.

After Huang Yin rinsed his mouth, Xia Yi packed up the empty bowl and left, allowing Huang Yin to rest well.

Huang Yin closed his eyes again to recuperate, Xu is decoction warmed his spleen and stomach, he was sleepy, and fell asleep in a daze.

In his sleep, he seemed to have become the young scholar who carried a bookbasket into Beijing to take the exam, and as soon as he entered the capital, he was robbed, and there were only a dozen copper plates left on his body, standing on the bustling East Street without relatives and at a loss......

By the time Huang Yin woke up again, it was already dark.

He was immersed in the dream, and it took a long time for his thoughts to come back.

Thinking of the self who was poor and white, hungry for two days, and picked up by Cao Feng, who was also rushing to take the exam, Huang Yin thought that compared with his own seventeen or eighteen years old, Jiang Muyuan, who talked to him last night, those thoughts and moods, really did not look like a young man.

Because Huang Yin fell ill, the finishing work of Henan Mansion took a few days longer than expected, and it was not until everything was in order that Jiang Muyuan went to Jingzhou Mansion again.

Hurry up and rush to the mansion, and it is also in full swing.

Spring planting and autumn harvest, even if this year's harvest cannot be expected, but how much can be saved, the Ministry of Industry has not been relieved these days.

Xu Yan has some experience in water conservancy, but he is purely blind to farming, so he does not command indiscriminately, carefully listens to the explanations of officials who understand the practice, and goes to the fields to ask the people for advice.

His focus at the moment was not on farming, but on the time of spring planting, mobilizing manpower to rebuild the embankment.

And the most scarce thing for rebuilding is silver.

Six years ago, Xu Yan did the audit, estimate, he knows very well how much silver it will cost to build the embankment, the treasury is empty, this is not a secret among the officials of the Ministry of Industry, Xu Yan repeatedly revised the plan, and finally gritted his teeth, did not dare to save money on the materials.

When handing over the written booklet to Jiang Muyuan, Xu Yan turned his back and wiped his forehead, secretly thinking that thanks to the silver that had been confiscated, otherwise, this embankment would not know how to repair.

Jiang Muyuan looked at it seriously from beginning to end, and occasionally didn't understand a few things, so he asked Xu Yan.

Xu Yan answered, and Jiang Muyuan understood, which made Xu Yan quite admired.

He knew that the little grandfather had already done a lot of homework when he rushed to the two lakes, how to look at the water situation and how to do it after the disaster, he had a book in his heart, even if it was related to the construction of the embankment, the little grandfather generally knew it.

I think that at the beginning, Xu Yan had just come to work in the Ministry of Industry, and when he came into contact with these for the first time, he also took a lot of thought.

Jiang Muyuan read it, put down the booklet, hooked his lips and smiled: "The silver that has just been transported back to the capital has not been placed in the warehouse for a long time, and it will be moved back again......

The words were only half spoken, and Xu Yan understood, this was because he was worried that the saint would be unhappy.

However, as a courtier, it is a matter of sainthood, Xu Yan is not good at what to say, he can only look at his nose and nose, and act as if he didn't understand this sentence.

Jiang Muyuan also said casually, handed the booklet back to Xu Yan, he said with a smile: "Now up and down the two lakes, the officialdom is understaffed, and when the new official takes office, it will probably take a few days. ”

Xu Yan is also worried that laymen will guide insiders, but after all, he is not the parent official of Lianghu, and after the new official arrives, I am afraid that there will be a pull between them.

Now with Jiang Muyuan's words, Xu Yan is much more relieved to do things, and he is self-defeating.

In the capital, another spring rain fell.

Wu Yu's set return date is in sight, even if she is reluctant, she has to go back to her hometown.

"I came here when I got the letter this time, and I didn't prepare anything," Wu Yu held Wu's hand and said, "Go back and let someone bring you some children's things, your sister-in-law wants to take care of the child in confinement, and no one will send you a birth package, don't blame us." ”

Wu shook his head and said, "How can I blame you, I don't live in the same city, it's so far away, and you still come to see me, it's too late for me to be happy." You don't have to worry about my childbirth, wait for me to send you good news. ”

Wu Yu still had something to say, and after wrapping it around his mouth for a long time, he finally swallowed it.

For the mother's family, it is good news that the size is safe, but for the in-laws, after all, they are still looking forward to their brother.

Although the Gu family loves the girl, there is also a brother in front, if it is a girl who takes the lead, it will definitely be a little disappointed.

Of course, Wu Yu's family knows that the Gu family is very good, even if it is a sister first, they will not embarrass the Wu family and treat the children harshly, but after all, Sifang is Gu Yunqi's only seedling, and Wu Yu's family is looking forward to spreading its branches, not to mention Sifang himself.

Holding his daughter in his arms, Wu Yu patted her on the back, but he didn't say anything to put pressure on Wu, but just squeezed out a smile and said, "Then I'm waiting for your good news." ”

The Wu family sent Wu Yu away and was lost for two days, but with Gu Yunjin to accompany her to talk, she quickly got used to it.

On a sunny afternoon after the rain, when Wu asked Gu Yunjin to put his hand on her stomach, Gu Yunjin felt the presence of the little guy for the first time.
