Text Chapter 27: Fengcheng

Tea and relatives, under the current conditions, of course, is just the meaning of the picture, and Du Ziwu immediately said that he would go back to Beikaicheng and hold a grand reunion for Yi'er.

Those servants knelt down to worship their own young lady for the first time, of course Yi'er had to say something, and the meeting gift was indispensable, but fortunately, the Li family had already prepared, and gave Yi'er a handful of broken silver as soon as possible, and she would reward her.

The reward on weekdays is no more than a few big bucks, but now Yi'er rewards are all broken silver, and the servants are happy, and they also understand that this is the master's happiness, and they can see the importance and love of Du Ziwu and his wife for this young lady who has been separated for ten years!

Yi'er used to accept other people's rewards, and this time she rewarded others, she was always a little apprehensive, but Li sat next to her and looked at her with a smile all the time, which made her feel a lot more settled, and when the reward was over, she couldn't remember the names of many people, but she also wrote down a few people like Qin Guosan, the leading guard Yan Xi, Du Ziwu's handmaid Jin Shan, and so on.

Of course, the Qingxiang Marquis Mansion was in the capital of Yundu, and Du Ziwu moved his family to the north, but it was Du Ziwu who received the emperor's order and took office as the prefect of Lianzhou.

At the beginning of the drought in the three northern states, Emperor Qiming ordered His Royal Highness the prince Tang Wang to be the great prince of Qincha, to the three northern states for disaster relief, Tang Wang arrived in Beikaicheng, he killed the then Lianzhou prefect Wang Hong on the charge of poor disaster relief, and then the position of the Lianzhou prefect has been vacant, because the Tang king sat in Beikai, in fact, he was equivalent to the concurrently served as the prefect of Lianzhou, a few days ago, Emperor Qiming appointed Du Ziwu, who had just returned to Beijing from Jin Shan, to report on his work as the new prefect of Lianzhou, and went to Lianzhou to take office on the same day!

And that Qin Guosan, Yi'er thought it was not bad at the beginning, he was not a special doctor, but Du Ziwu's very relied on staff master, and Yan Xi and the other seven guards were all from the Qingxiang Marquis Mansion, in fact, Du Ziwu was in the Qingxiang Marquis Mansion, he was the eldest son, and he was a descendant, it stands to reason that the title of the Qingxiang Marquis should also fall on his head, but he didn't want to be entitled, but took the path of the imperial examination, Yi'er didn't understand the reason, but vaguely, I always felt that the relationship between Du Ziwu and his wife and the Qingxiang Marquis Mansion was not good!

Because the official boat taken by Du Ziwu and his wife hit the rocks, after the Li family fell into the water, Du Ziwu was anxious, and took people to find them along the river bank overnight, so the maids and grandmothers did not bring all of them, only brought a male servant, that night, naturally there was no maid to serve, but Li obviously didn't care, and even abandoned Du Ziwu at night, and Yi'er slept in a tent, the two of them were head to head, Li babbled a lot of things, most of them said how cute Du Feiyuan looked when he was young, and how likable he was born!

Early the next morning, a group of people on the road, because there were no horses, everyone could only walk, considering that there were Li and Yi'er in the team, the team walked very slowly, so after walking for nearly an hour, a team of people and horses came over, and there was a carriage inside.

When Yi'er looked up, she saw that the leader of the team was Yan Xi, and Yi'er realized why she didn't see Yan Xi when she got up in the morning, thinking that he had already set off, went to find the Du family's convoy, and then led the convoy back to pick up people.

As soon as the two parties converged, it was inevitable to be introduced to kneel and worship, but this time Yi'er saw most of the maids and grandmothers, and as for the male servants, they were taken by Du Ziwu.

There are two girls who are waiting for Li's closely, one is called Liuying, and the other is called Zhihua, she immediately dialed Liuying to Yi'er, because this time it was Du Ziwu who went to work, and the manpower on the road was not enough, in addition to these two personal girls, there were only four capable grandmothers to follow, and Li sent another grandmother surnamed Wang to take care of Yi'er's daily life!

Liuying is sixteen years old this year, she looks good, she looks very beautiful, after Li's order, she wants to give a big salute to Yi'er, after being stopped by Yi'er, Li also said that she wants to give a big salute, and after Beikai settles down, she will give up on saluting the new master. It's just that although Liuying's face is not obvious, Yi'er keenly found that she was a little unhappy in her heart, Yi'er was thinking, maybe she was used to serving the Li family and didn't want to leave, if so, when she arrived in Beikai, there were other people around her, so she would find a chance to put her next to the Li family!

There was only one carriage, Li and Yi'er sat down, and even Du Ziwu rode on horseback, this time, the speed of the team was much faster, and they had lunch in an official post, and in the evening, the team entered Fengcheng.

The three northern states have always been known for their vast land and sparsely populated areas, and among them, Lianzhou is headed by Lianzhou, Lianzhou is the most extensive in the three states, the population is also the largest, there are twenty-one subordinate counties under it alone, and Beikaicheng, the capital of Lianzhou, is an important town in the north, because the Grand Canal in the south of the Yangtze River starts here, and it is the transportation hub of the entire Beiling, which has an irreplaceable important position!

And this natural disaster, Lianzhou is also the most severely affected place in the three northern states, and His Royal Highness Tang Wang sat here when he came out of Beijing, and it was precisely because of this.

Yi'er doesn't know anything about geography, but she also knows that Fengcheng is Beikai, so it seems that she will be able to rush to Beikaicheng tomorrow after resting in Fengcheng for one night tonight.

Du Ziwu didn't want to alarm the local officials, but when he entered the city, the investigation was very strict, and he had no choice but to show the paperwork, so the team found an inn and just settled it, and Fengcheng County ordered Zhang Dakai to lead his family to the door to worship.

Of course, Yi'er and the Li family don't have to pay attention to Zhang Dakai, but Zhang Dakai's family is the object of their hospitality.

Mrs. Zhang brought a daughter over, only thirteen years old, named Zhang Shuanglan, and they also inquired about the situation of Li and Yi'er before coming, so she specially brought a daughter of the same age as Yi'er.

Zhang Shuanglan is very quiet, at first glance she is a well-behaved girl, after the two sides met, Zhang Shuanglan gave her a gift, two square handkerchiefs woven of Shu brocade!

Yi'er is empty-handed, where can there be such a little thing used by a little girl to return the gift? Zhang Shuanglan also knew that they came suddenly, and Yi'er and they were on their way, so naturally they would not have any preparations, so they sent something, and said softly: "This square papa is a pastime, and it is not valuable, but the peony flowers on it are embroidered in my spare time, and I am relieved that Miss Du does not dislike me!" ”

Yi'er looked at the square handkerchief in her hand and said with a smile: "This peony flower was embroidered by my sister herself?" It's so well embroidered! ”

Zhang Shuanglan naturally heard a lot of this kind of polite praise, and just smiled at the moment, and said politely: "Miss Du praised it falsely!" ”

Yi'er stepped forward and took Zhang Shuanglan's hand, and said affectionately: "Sister, this is a break up with me, I have called my sister, and my sister is still called Miss Du!" My name is Yi... Flying kite, sister, why don't you just call me a flying kite? ”

Zhang Shuanglan hesitated for a moment, looked up and saw her mother, Mrs. Zhang, bowing slightly to her quietly, and immediately nodded with a smile and called "flying kite"!

Yi'er pointed to the peony flower on the square handkerchief and said: "Sister uses the wrong needle here, the stitches of the wrong needle are so tight, my sister's embroidery skills are really good, oh, here, here my sister changed the gold, from the wrong needle to the gold, really ingenious, I never thought that my sister is really a wonderful person with a delicate heart!" ”

Zhang Shuanglan was stunned, and even Mrs. Zhang, who was sitting on the side, was stunned for a moment!

Zhang Shuanglan was surprised for a long time: "You can also embroider?" ”

Yi'er said: "It's a little bit, but it's not as good as my sister's embroidery!" ”

Zhang Shuanglan first heard Yi'er praise her embroidery skills, just as a politeness, now seeing that she has something to say, where can I not see that Yi'er is really praising her, she is happy in her heart, and suddenly she likes Yi'er a little, and immediately took Yi'er's hand back, and said: "Come, tell me, what kind of stitches do you know?" ”

Yi'er smiled on her face, and discussed the stitch embroidery with Zhang Shuanglan, her embroidery skills are outstanding, and she has been an embroidery girl in the Mingfeng Embroidery Building, although she did not worship Wei Niangzi as a teacher, but she usually has Wei Niangzi's guidance, so whether it is the understanding of embroidery skills or the real hands-on needle, which is Zhang Shuanglan, a woman raised in the deep boudoir, can be compared? She was not brilliant, and only followed Zhang Shuanglan's words, but she came at her fingertips and talked eloquently, but every sentence and every word implied a deep meaning, which can be described as insightful.

If this is an embroidery girl who is really proficient in embroidery skills here, after listening to Yi'er's words, she must have a feeling and be shocked, but Zhang Shuanglan has just come into contact with embroidery, and it is really not enough to talk about the heat, but she is not too shocked by Yi'er, she just thinks that what Yi'er said seems to be very reasonable.

To Mrs. Zhang on the side, she had some attainments in embroidery skills, and she heard Yi'er's extraordinary, she couldn't help but be a little surprised, and said to Li: "I didn't expect that Miss Du would have such exquisite embroidery skills at a young age and a dignified prefect!" ”

Li Shi smiled and said: "She likes it herself, she usually likes to embroider some small things, if you want to say anything, Mrs. Zhang has won the award." ”

After sending Mrs. Zhang and Zhang Shuanglan away, Yi'er hugged Li's arm and said, "Mother, how am I behaving today?" ”

Li Shi smiled and said, "Okay, my mother didn't expect that you would be able to do so well the first time!" ”

Yi'er said: "Mother looks at me, it's good everywhere, but if my mother keeps praising me like this, I don't think it will be long before my tail will rise to the sky!" ”

Li laughed and said, "But Kite, that Miss Zhang, do you like it?" ”

"I just met, it looks pretty good, anyway, I don't hate it!"

Li nodded and said, "Iris, if you meet someone you don't like, you don't have to be difficult to please anyone, you are the good daughter of your mother, and your father is the prefect, we don't need to flatter anyone, you know?" ”

"Hmm!" Yi'er nodded heavily.
