Chapter 087: Planning
Su Youhua sat on the Taishi chair, his face was calm, and he repeatedly read and read the letter from Jingzhou Mansion.
Hearing Jinnian's voice at the door of the study, he sighed, put down the letterhead in his hand, and motioned for the little girl to come in.
Jin Nian walked into the study, Su Youhua raised his eyes and looked carefully, seeing that the girl had no expression on her face, he simply asked, "What is your grandmother going to do with the falling into the water today?" ”
Jin Nian sighed and told her father what her grandmother meant.
Su Youhua took her hand and sat down, and told her about Xie Qian: "...... I don't know what your grandfather's plans are, your cousin took the Xiucai exam at the age of thirteen, and went to Huai'an Academy for two years, and your grandfather asked him to travel to this day, even last year's autumn exam. Although he has been traveling abroad for two years, I still feel a little less cautious when I look at his actions, according to me, your grandfather should let him go back to the academy, lest he not even be able to lift people in the autumn of the next year! ”
Speaking of later, Su Youhua's tone was a little dissatisfied.
Jin Nian really wanted to say that Xie Qian was the successor of the next session, how could he not be moved! But seeing that her father was still angry, she comforted her: "My cousin also thinks that I fell into the water, and he also cares about it!" ”
Xie Qian's thoughts about his own girl, how can Su Youhua not know? He snorted coldly: "Xue Xiucai is stubborn and abnormal, this matter will not be easily revealed, if Xie Qian has no choice but to accept Xue Birong, I will ask him to send Xue Birong to Zhuangzi, otherwise, don't come to propose marriage to me." ”
These things are not something that Jin Nian can decide, not to mention, Xue Xiucai has no other actions on his side, they are waiting, in short, her grandmother and father will not let her be wronged! ,
Seeing that the girl didn't speak, Su Youhua didn't continue Xie Qian's topic, he told Jin Nian about another thing: "Your eldest uncle has replied and agreed to transfer your father out of the Lianghuai region. ”
It's that easy? It can't be an excuse for her father to prevaricate her, right!? She asked with some confusion: "You said that you want to transfer out of Lianghuai, just like that, the eldest uncle agreed?" ”
The girl's eyes widened, and there was a misty look on her face, did she believe what he said? Su Youhua suddenly wanted to laugh, what a child, what do you mean by that, he analyzed the salt merchants and salt taxes in the Lianghuai area with the eldest brother in detail, and the eldest brother changed his mouth.
"Sister Nian, I don't believe in being a father anymore, oh, look!" As he spoke, he handed the letterhead on the bookcase to Jinnian.
Jin Nian looked up at her father and saw that he was looking at her with a smile in his eyes. She laughed too, and she was still thinking about what excuse she should find to get her father to show her the letter, but now it saved her a lot of words.
She happily opened the letterhead. On the letterhead of two palms, the eldest uncle made a plan for his father's career, if he can enter the cabinet in the spring next year, he will want to transfer his father to leave Lianghuai and continue to serve as the governor in Jingzhou, and then stay up for another three years, and be promoted to the prefect by walking. If he has no hope of entering the cabinet next year, he will think of transferring his father to Beizhili so that he can have qualifications for entering Beijing.
Jin Nian was relieved, but he didn't expect that it would be easy to live a life and keep his father away from Yangzhou officialdom!
Su Youhua squinted when he saw her smile, and sighed helplessly: "For my father, I wanted to be transferred back to Yangzhou and be able to reunite with your mother and son, but now this wish is in vain, how do you know that you are so happy......"
Of course she was happy, because far away from the officialdom of Yangzhou, her father could finally be spared three years in prison in his previous life! Thinking of this, her whole person became relaxed, and she only felt that if she worked hard to do everything, there would always be unexpected gains.
Perhaps, can my cousin really properly solve Xue Xiucai's forced marriage?
Cousin is such a good person, he shouldn't be forced to marry a woman he doesn't like, even if there is no Su Jinnian for her, but that person must not be Xue Birong!
Sweeping away the chaotic thoughts brought about by Xie Qian's words, Jin Nian said goodbye to his father and walked briskly back to his room.
She sent the cuckoo to call the maid named Lu Qiao, who was originally guarding the door, to talk back, if Xie Qian was really framed, Lu Qiao would be a breakthrough, and when the time came, let Lu Qiao come to prove against Xue Birong, the fault is on the side of the Xue Mansion, see how Xue Xiucai is forced to marry!
The cuckoo went and returned, and she said with a little frustration: "That Lu Qiao, later today, was sent out of the house by Aunt Rong, and I heard that it was because she was rude at the banquet and sprinkled the soup on the guests. The slave asked the subordinate who sat down, and no one knew where she had been sent......"
It was Xue Birong who was sprinkled with soup and was spilled on the guest, right? Jin Nian sneered, this link is interlocked, if it has nothing to do with Xue Birong, she doesn't believe it.
She went to Aunt Rong's yard with a calm face.
Aunt Rong was sitting in front of Luohan's bed, instructing the maids to do needlework, which was the clothes she promised to make for Jin Nian and Su Zifeng.
Seeing her coming, Aunt Rong got up from the couch and said in surprise: "It's so late, what's the urgency of Miss Six?" This is the first time that Jin Nian has taken the initiative to come to her yard since she came to Huai'an, and it is still at night.
Jin Nian didn't do too much politeness with her, and asked straight to the point: "What about Lu Qiao, who was punished by her aunt to go to the pulp washing room, where did your aunt send her?" ”
Aunt Rong frowned, "Lu Qiao couldn't do anything, first shut Miss Six out of the door, and then sprinkled the soup on Miss Xue, after the birthday banquet, I called someone from Yaxing and sold her......"
Sold? The movement is really fast enough, Jin Nian looked at Aunt Rong with a smile, "Is Auntie afraid that I will find something?" ”
Aunt Rong raised her eyebrows, looking concerned: "What is Miss Six investigating?" Why don't I send someone to the tooth shop to ask if Lu Qiao is still there? ”
This is obviously prevaricating her, Jin Nian sneered in his heart, and took the cuckoo to the outer courtyard to find his father's little servant, and asked him to take his father's name card and run a trip to the tooth line himself.
The little girl was very quick to do things, and came to report to her that night.
"We went late, and as soon as Lu Qiao returned to Yaxing, someone ransomed her life and left. I followed the clues for a few hours, but the person disappeared as if out of thin air, and I couldn't find out where I went. ”
Jin Nian's eyes flashed with coldness, my cousin was afraid that he was calculated by Xue Birong and Aunt Rong!
Following.
Just after the hour, Jin Nian went to Xie Mansion. She saw Xue Xiucai from a distance at the gate of Xie Mansion, he was wearing a gray round shirt and a wooden face walking out of the corner gate.
Seeing Jin Nian getting out of the carriage, he glanced at him coldly, and left straight without saying hello.
Jin Nian frowned, tied the cloak on his body, and under the guidance of the maid, he passed through the hammer flower gate and went to the Cuisong Hall where his grandmother lived.
The eldest aunt and Xie Qian were there, and the atmosphere was a little peaceful. Xu was because of the sorrowful sentence last night, when he saw Xie Qian, Jin Nian was a little embarrassed, and he didn't dare to look at him with his eyes.
Grandmother asked her to sit down, and said angrily: "Xue Xiucai is here, saying that Brother Qian has ruined his sister's reputation, and the matter has been known to the whole city, and asked us to hire a matchmaker to propose marriage, and also said that we want three matchmakers and six hires!" Who is he, a boy who has not dried his milk, and dares to come to me to point fingers! What is something in their Xue Mansion, the people who saved them, and they even did the dirty thing of forcing marriage......"
