Chapter 333: Emigration

Although the sentence "Mrs" made Lu's mother enter Chunying's rented house in a fluctuating mood, it did not make her dizzy for too long. With a bit of pride and a bit of reserve, she learned to sit on the seat with the posture of the nobles in the Hou Mansion in her memory, glanced around, and added a bit of dissatisfaction and contempt to her face, frowning and scolding her daughter: "Look where you live!" So small! The front and back yards combined, not as big as the backyard in our capital! What kind of people are we? It's too cheap for you to live in such a house! ”

The smile mask on Chunying's face almost collapsed, and finally remembered that Sister-in-law He and Mo Han's family were busy working in front of her, and they didn't plan to let them see jokes, so they still kept smiling, closed the tea bowl for their parents with their own hands, and adjusted the position of the tea and fruit saucers, so she said to Sister-in-law He and the others unhurriedly, "You guys go down first, prepare the food and send it up, the sedan chair man outside and the porter who carries the luggage and burden, the silver that should be given must be paid, Uncle Yao is guarding the door, our family is not doing business today, if someone comes to the door, It's good to give birth to others. ”

Everyone went down in response, Chunying closed the door, and when she turned around, her face changed, "Mother, although this place is far away from the capital, and the people outside don't know the details of our family, but Sister-in-law He and Mo Han know!" You're still wearing a cloth dress, isn't it a joke to say this at home?! ”

Lu Yougui also complained helplessly, "I said it along the way, telling her to be more restrained, and not to see that she has already left the house, for fear that others will not know that we are the servants of the Shangshu family of the Ministry of War, and if you catch someone, you will talk about the East Mansion and the Hou Mansion." He glanced at his wife, "You're not afraid of taboos." ”

"What's so scary about that?" Mother Lu didn't care about pinching a plum and tasted it, "I'm not a fool, I naturally know what to say and what not to say." When we go out, only our husband and wife, and we are taking a tailwind boat, if we don't show our family's backer, others will look up to us?! I'm afraid that I will suffer a lot of grievances. I don't want to be filthy!

Lu Yougui's eyes widened, and he was about to open his mouth to scold, but Chun Ying hurriedly interjected, "Okay, okay, what's there to talk about?" I haven't seen my father and mother for a few months, so for my sake, you all have to say less. ”

Lu's mother pursed her lips and turned her head to eat the tea fruit, Lu Yougui turned her head angrily. Chunying hurriedly took out the account books and other things from the room, sent them to her father, and said, "Dad, look at it, this is the account I have been doing business for two or three months." I still remember that you mentioned that you wanted to do a dental shop, so the signboard was Lujia Dental Shop, but my father hadn't nodded yet, and I didn't dare to go to the official mansion. But I've made a lot of business these days! ”

12th floor

Lu Yougui slowly looked through the account book and was pleasantly surprised to find that his daughter stayed in Suzhou to do business, and she did very well. In addition to Wu Di's batch of cloth, almost every two or three days, she was able to buy a large amount of cotton cloth and sell it to merchants from other places, and the selling price was not low. Although the profit of a single horse is far less than that of silk, it is better than a large amount, often thousands, two or three months down, has been close to 10,000 horses, carefully calculated, the profit is no less than the silk transaction.

On the other hand, the last time he bought hundreds of good forgings in Jiangnan, he was transported to Beijing to sell, and the money he earned was not as good as what his daughter earned from buying and selling cotton cloth around Suzhou in the past few months.

15th floor

He smiled at Chunying and said, "You did a good job, the girl's family, and there is no adult to help you, it's really good to do this." The signboard of this tooth shop is also done, Ming'er, let's go to the yamen to go to the stall, and simply settle down in Jiangnan. I have traveled long distances between the two places, and I have sold hundreds of silk forgings, and the profit I earn is not much worse than that of yours, and you are just going back and forth between towns in the south of the Yangtze River, and you don't have to worry about having no buyers. It seems that the business here is much easier than in the capital. ”

"Huh!" Chunying was a little surprised, "How do you say this, although cotton cloth is a small profit but quick turnover, but silk is still a bulk deal." The price gap between here and the capital can sometimes even be several times, how can my father say, the money you have earned in the past few months is similar to what I have earned? Those hundreds of horses are a little less, but they are worth at least ten times as much as we have here! ”

Lu Yougui sighed, "It's also unfortunate, what's wrong with you?" I only shipped the material back to the capital two days ago, and bad news came from the imperial city, the Queen Mother died (in fact, it is not a dead word, it is a meaning, but I will not type that word)! National filial piety is above, but there are a few decent people in Beijing, who dares to do happy events? Even ordinary banquets are not easy to set up. My materials are all bright colors, so naturally I don't need them.

In the end, the price was slightly reduced, and the Mu family boy and the stone shopkeeper were asked to collect them. ”

Empress Dowager Liu died, and Chunying's heart moved. Think about it, she is not too old, she was originally the successor of the first emperor, and now she is in her forties at most, and she has never heard of any physical problems, and she died suddenly, which is really intriguing......

But what does this have to do with her?

Chunying smiled at her father and said, "Dad has suffered a loss, although it is not easy to do happy things in this national filial piety, but now I don't pay attention to any three-year national filial piety, at most it is only three months of hard work, and it will be up to the sky in a hundred days." If Dad had waited, he would have been able to sell it at a high price, but now it is selling in a hurry, which makes people suppress the price. She didn't believe that now His Majesty the Emperor would let Empress Dowager Liu's affairs be beautiful. Empress Dowager Liu has no son by her side, and she has always been at odds with the emperor, and she is restrained in everything. Now that her mother's family is in a quagmire, she herself is entangled with the rebel party, and anyone who has a little eyesight inside and outside will not blame the emperor for being "unfilial", so why should the emperor spend too much money on useless work?

Lu Yougui shook his head, "You are here alone, how can I rest assured?" It's a long way to go, so I finally collected the balance and settled down at home, so I brought your mother here. On the way, I was thinking, simply moving my family to Jiangnan, saving me from running between the two places, and making people look down on our origins. ”

Mother Lu pouted and said, "I said you were asking for trouble." What's wrong with making people laugh at a few words? Our family is from the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of War, who doesn't respect us for three points? Which young people don't dare to provoke us. There is also a second uncle's family and Sister Qiu'er's family in Beijing, and it is convenient to move around with other relatives and friends. Now you suddenly say that you want to move to Jiangnan, this person is not familiar with the place, even if he hides his background, he will inevitably be bullied! ”

Chunying lowered her head and thought about it, and asked, "Does Dad really have the heart to do this?" If you really move over, it doesn't matter, it's just that it's inconvenient for my sister and my second uncle's family to come and go. Although there is a canal, this trip will take more than a month, and in winter, it will freeze and it will be closed. However, my father's idea also has some truth, living here for two or three months, in fact, I feel that it is not unreasonable for the world to say that Jiangnan is rich. Even if you can easily earn some money here, it is easier than in the capital. Although there is no backer, but there are many people without backing, so can't they live? And look at it coldly for a few days, choose a kind and famous person, send a big gift, occasionally flatter one or two times, ask for peace of mind, and it's okay. ”

Lu Yougui nodded, "I think so too, cheekily say, the Hou Mansion still has a fleet here, although we have been transferred to the East Mansion and taken off the nationality, after all, the Hou Mansion of the East Mansion is still a family, and if there is anything that cannot be solved, it will not take much effort to ask the steward of the fleet to come forward." ”

When Mother Lu heard this, she angrily spit out the melon seeds in her mouth, "Are you really going to do this?!" No way! I've never been out of Beijing in my life! This time, I'm just going to come and have a look, but I don't plan to stay here for a long time! I can't get used to living in this place, and I don't want to leave the capital! ”

Chunying hurriedly stepped forward to persuade "Mother, listen to me......"

"I don't listen," Lu's mother had red eyes, "Aunt Qing accompanied her aunt to get married that day, and she couldn't go back to Beijing for 20 years, and her parents didn't see each other when they were dying." If our family moves over, what should we do if we call my sister Qiu? What about Brother Kang? Do you really want to be separated for the rest of your life......"

"Mother" Chunying was a little speechless, "You come with your father, in addition to the longer time, the road is more inconvenient, there is nothing difficult, at most, I go back to Beijing every year to visit my sister and second uncle." Aunt Qing couldn't go home, because of her identity, and she had to serve Mrs. Gu. We don't want to be other people's minions anymore, don't you have the final say on where you want to go?! "To be honest, with Aunt Qing's loyal and servant nature, even if she has the right to choose, she may not really leave her master for so long!

Seeing that Mother Lu's expression was a little relaxed, Chun Ying hurriedly stepped up and said, "Think about it, there are many nobles in the capital, let's go out, we have to be careful of what big officials we will collide with!" Emperor. If you do a good job, you have to beware of others being scheming. Besides, our family's background can't be hidden in the capital, not only do we have to go back to Dongfu from time to time to ask for peace, my father goes out to talk about business with people, and I often meet acquaintances. Not to mention the leg wind...... It's not good to let someone debunk it! Xiaohu is now older, and if he wants to study and get ahead, a good environment is very important. Even if he works his own, if others dislike his background and look down on him, he will not feel good? Mother, there are few people who know us in Jiangnan, as long as we are far away, we can live a decent life, and when we buy a house and pick up Xiaohu, we will also seriously invite a learned gentleman to teach him, and teach him individually! As long as he is not an elm head, are you still afraid that he will not be promising? “

Mother Lu straightened her waist, although she didn't speak, she looked at it and looked at it.

Chunying knew that persuading people should stop in moderation, so she didn't say much, let her go by herself.

Lu Yougui stared at his wife and interjected coldly, "How good Jiangnan is, you can only flatter your wives in Beijing, and you can be a wife yourself in Jiangnan!" How many people come to flatter you! ”

Chunying couldn't help but smile and tugged at the corners of her father's sleeves, and Lu Yougui turned his head away. Mother Lu stared at him for a long time, stomped her feet, and stood up, "I'm tired, where is the room?!" Deliver the meals! Chunying hurriedly helped her to the main room in the backyard, Aunt Yao diligently poured tea and made the bed, and beat her legs, and a string of flattering words came out, Chunying knew that the Yao family and his wife had been in turmoil since they came to their own house, for fear that one day they would be sold again, and they couldn't help but feel a little sad, so they said to their mother, "This is Mohan's mother, I met it by chance, so I took it." The one outside is Mo Han's father. If the mother is bored, it is better to talk to Aunt Yao. Then he said to Aunt Yao, "My mother just wants to lie down for a while, I'm afraid that she will fall asleep and miss the meal, you can sit and talk to her." Aunt Yao responded with a smile, and she just came back to the front.

Lu Yougui saw his daughter and raised his eyebrows, "Your mother must be happy to be majestic in the back, right?" Chunying pursed her lips and smiled, "Mother won't go too far, Aunt Yao is accompanying her, she is Mo Han's mother, Mother knows that Mo Han is Brother Xiaofei's person, so naturally she will not treat Uncle Yao and Aunt Yao as ordinary slaves." After explaining the causes and consequences of the arrival of the Yao family husband and wife, Lu Yougui nodded, "Just what Chong Mohan has helped our family do in the past few months, we should do the same." I also want to thank them for accompanying you, you are a girl who lives in an unfamiliar place, although you have a sister-in-law, you still need to be accompanied by an elderly person. Remind me to thank them a little. ”

Chunying answered, and the father and daughter sat down again to discuss the matter of settlement.

Chunying said, "If you say that life is convenient, business is prosperous, it is naturally good in Suzhou City, but the price here is high, although our family has some money, it is not a rich and expensive family, it is better to buy a house in the surrounding towns, if the price of the field is not expensive, it is good to buy some land, Jiangnan is twice a year, cotton melon and vegetables are also planted, even if it is a mulberry tree, do not worry about the way out." ”

Lu Yougui groaned, "Although your words are reasonable, but if we want to open a tooth shop, we must always open it in a lively and prosperous place, otherwise there will be business coming to the door?" ”

Regarding this, Chunying has already had a belly case, but she is still a little hesitant, for fear that her father will have ideas, and she feels embarrassed, and hesitates to know whether she should say it directly?

The three hundred and thirty-three chapters of migration are all over.
