Chapter 453: Between the Two Cities
Dong Laosan slept for a day and a night, and before dawn the next day, he shook his spirits, got on the horse again, and went back to Pingjiang Mansion as he came.
It was half a day late, Fugui took Yingui out of the city, day and night, and went south to Jiangyin.
Dong Laosan went back to Pingjiang Mansion no slower than on the way into Beijing, rushed straight to the door of the helmsman of Pingjiang Mansion, shouted, Xiao Wu, who was squatting at the gate and idle, sighed, and jumped up, "Alas, it is our third master!" Hurry! Alas, the third master! ”
The people on duty at the helmsman are all clever people, and a few of them have rushed past early, and they have come forward to stop the horses, and the ones who pick up Dong Laosan have picked up Dong Laosan, and there are a few who rushed in to report to the boss.
Dong Laosan was supported by Xiao Wu and others, and rushed all the way in without touching each other, Hu Panshi stood at the door of the main courtyard lobby, looked at Dong Laosan, who was out of shape, and took a step to the side, "Carry him in." ”
"Boss, it's urgent." Dong Laosan was carried over Hu Panshi, twisting his head and Hu Panshi.
"Pour him a bowl of ginseng soup first, and no matter how anxious he is, he won't work in this bowl of soup." Hu Panshi followed into the house and commanded.
Everyone poured a bowl of ginseng soup into Dong Laosan, and before Dong Laosan had swallowed the last bite of ginseng soup, he waved his hand, "Go out, I'll talk to the boss." ”
Hu Panshi retreated from everyone, dragged a chair and sat in front of Dong Laosan, "Have you seen the eldest brother?" How so? Hu Panshi asked in a word, and looked at Dong Laosan nervously with a slight bated breath.
Guo Ye was washing his face and asked first: Something happened to the rock? After hearing what I said, I went to wash my face and wipe my teeth. Dong Laosan looked flattering.
Hu Panshi's heart burned violently, and his throat choked, "Damn, let you get down to business, you say this...... Get down to business. ”
"Later, I told Guo Ye, what's going on, Guo Ye didn't speak, just listen to me, that is, I dislike the stack of confessions The smell of sweat is too strong, and later, Guo Ye shook the stack of paper and told him to take me to rest, and I left."
"Damn." Hu Panshi's heart fell, "Did you fart all the way?" After a few days of hard work, can you smoke a few pieces of paper that people can't smell? How about wealth? I haven't seen him in years. You go on to say. ”
"It looks very noble, and he doesn't speak the same way, the boss will see him in a few days, I continued." Dong Laosan saw Hu Panshi's eyes widen, and hurriedly continued: "Later, I took a bath, fell asleep, woke up in the middle, was anxious, slept for a day and a night, in the early hours of the morning, Guo Ye woke me up, let me come back the same as when I went, let me tell you two things: First, let you set off immediately, go to see Wang Tongzhi, let you ask Wang Tongzhi, I don't know that Wang Tongzhi can be good at wealth, not a place and all the way to wealth." ”
Hu Panshi blinked, what do you mean by this? Good at money? It's not all the way in one place...... Into the capital?
"The second thing, after you meet Wang Tongzhi, if your grandfather arrives, you will know when you see your grandfather, if your grandfather does not arrive, let you wait, Guo Ye also said, you wait for your grandfather, and your grandfather's arrival in Hangzhou, you can't let anyone know, except for the two of us." Dong Laosan pointed at Hu Panshi, and then pointed at himself, a faint red light flashed on his face, such a big thing, the boss and the two of them knew!
"Anything else?" Hu Panshi's heart settled, he lifted his shoulder, looked at Dong Laosan and confirmed the sentence, saw Dong Laosan shaking his head, and then asked again, "Is there anything else to do?" ”
"No, boss, Guo Ye is really, Mount Tai collapsed and his color remained unchanged...... Uh, that's right," Dong Laosan laughed embarrassedly, "It's not Guo Ye, it's your grandfather, said that our gentleman, didn't he get into the Jinshi, and the noble master said that Guo Ye took him to see Li Liuye, and said yes, Mr. and Li Liuye are very rebellious or anything." ”
"I know this, okay, it's nothing, you hurry down and wash well, rest well, I'll go to Hangzhou, you have a good rest, and then find me in Hangzhou, quietly, like last time, hum!" Hu Panshi leaned at Dong Laosan and snorted coldly, Dong Laosan nodded like pounding garlic, "Don't worry, boss, you put a hundred hearts!" ”
Hu Panshi came out, stood under the corridor with his hands behind his back, tasted Dong Laosan's words carefully, and then from the eldest brother asked him to inquire about Feng Fuhai and the cemetery, he went through the affairs of Feng Fuhai and the Li family from the beginning, and then thought about the eldest brother's instructions, his eyes narrowed and relaxed, it seems that this trip is a big event, and the departure should not be too urgent, and he has to pick some people first......
Hu Panshi picked someone, arranged a few things, and sent someone to say a word to his home, but it was only more than half an hour, and he took a dozen or so people, and they hurried to Hangzhou City.
In the city of Hangzhou, Wang Funian sent Hu Panshi away, went around and returned to the yamen, sat down, stood up again for a while, turned around a few times with his hands behind his back, sat down again, and stood up again for a while, this time he simply went out of the yamen, got on the horse and went home.
Grandma An was looking at the people to reconcile the accounts, and saw that Wang Funian came back just in the afternoon, and was surprised, but also with a heart, General Feng of the Jiangyin Army came to Hangzhou to shoot the table several times, saying that Zhang Cheng was framed, and he was beaten into a trick, and he kept saying that someone wanted to frame him, and he also ran to the Shuai Si Yamen twice to make trouble, the Jiangyin Army's arrogance and domineering, she heard that she didn't know how much, and she didn't worry that it was fake.
"Nothing's wrong, is it?" Grandma An greeted Wang Funian and asked first.
"It's nothing, at least not yet." Wang Funian strained his face, put his hands behind his back, crossed Grandma An, and went straight into the house.
Grandma An followed Wang Funian's eyes, followed her body, turned around, and blinked a few times, although his face was tight, but with intuition, he seemed to be happy.
"What's the good thing?" Grandma An carried her skirt and hurriedly followed up a few steps, waving her hand to retreat from the girls, and asked anxiously.
Wang Funian just took the tea from the girl's hand, sat upright to sip it, and coughed when Grandma An asked, "I seem to have a good thing?" ”
"Hmm!" Grandma An nodded in the affirmative.
Wang Funian put down the cup, looked at himself left and right, stood up again, walked to the mirror, lifted the mirror cover, and looked carefully at the mirror.
"What are you looking at?" Grandma An followed behind Wang Funian and also looked him up and down.
"I'll see where this joy is leaking from." Wang Funian looked at it seriously and answered it seriously.
"Still need to leak out? Even if I'm blindfolded, you pass by me, whether you're happy or not, whether you're scared or not, I can smell it, and I never miss it, right? Once upon a time, when you went to take the Xiucai exam, I said that you were very scared, and others said that I was talking nonsense, and you didn't admit it at the time, but what happened later? Admit it? Serious people are afraid to die, right? Grandma An was really happy to be sure that Wang Funian was steady, pouting, obliquely tilting at Wang Funian, quite a little disdainful.
"Hey," Wang Funian put on the mirror cover, laughing and helpless, "I'm a little nervous, and I'm not too afraid, that is, I'm a little afraid, you're much smarter than me, it's a good thing." ”
The smile on Wang Funian's face spread little by little, trying his best to be calm, but he couldn't help the smugness, "Just now Hu Panshi came, coming from Pingjiang Mansion in one breath, he didn't even take a breath to change horses, and he hurried over all the way, so he said two words." ”
Grandma An opened her eyes wide, and looked at Wang Funian with a slight bated breath, her master is not without experience, and two sentences make him happy like this, what kind of two sentences?
"Hu Panshi said, the capital gave him a message, let him ask me, I don't know if Wang Tongzhi can be good at wealth, not all the way to the wealth." When Wang Funian said a word, the whole person seemed to glow.
Grandma An's eyes opened for a moment, and she sighed, "What do you mean by that?" This is to ...... Who asked that? That's scary! ”
"What are you scared of? I also thought about it, but I didn't dare to think about it. Wang Funian was in a very happy mood, "In the middle of the six departments, the household department and the officials are all in charge of the prime minister's house, this is not a long-term way, Tang Shangshu of the Criminal Department has been sick for many years, I heard that it is a small stroke, and he has been recuperating for two or three years, at least the illness has not improved, and these three books are all vacant. ”
"You're going to be a scholar? Tobe? Grandma An let out a low exclamation, looking incredulous.
Wang Funian, who had just picked up the teacup, shook his hand, fortunately he had just drunk a few sips of tea in the cup, otherwise he would have spilled it.
"How dare you think about it!" Wang Funian put down the cup, angry and happy.
"You just said that you are good at wealth, not all the way to the place, and said that the three books are vacant." Grandma An leaned at the cup, and when she asked, he looked like he was about to smash the cup, as for it?
"Haven't I finished saying this yet? I am now the fourth product, how many products is Shangshu? It's not singing. I mean, Shangshu is vacant, someone is promoted to Shangshu, then his son will be vacant, listen to this, about a three-grade household official, this household official is nothing, there are two things that are the most rare, one is from the fourth grade to the third grade, this pass has passed, and there is no difference from the middle of the year. ”
Wang Funian thought that this level finally had a chance to pass, and laughed again.
Grandma An sighed, and when she saw that Wang Funianguang was smiling, she hurriedly asked, "Is it still the same?" ”
"It's the same, it's possible to enter the capital, don't you keep saying that if you can live in the capital for a few years, it would be great, and now you should have a chance." Wang Funian looked at Grandma An with a smile.
"Oh," Grandma An let out a long sigh, the corners of her mouth pulled down, "You coax me again, this second, obviously you can enter the sixth department, and finally don't go anywhere, my ears are calloused when I hear this, and I coax me to say that it is so that I can live in the capital." ”
Wang Funian laughed, "Seventy percent is because you can fulfill your wish, and thirty percent is what you said." ”
"It's only seventy percent." Grandma An laughed before she finished speaking, "I thought you were even an official just for me." ”
"It's not just for you." Wang Funian looked serious, "I'm not a business material, I can't even play the abacus well, people like ours are considered wasted, if I want to marry you, how can I marry?" My head is hanging over the spine and the spine, and I came out of the test all the way, just to have the confidence to go to your house to propose, and to nod this head for your family. ”
"When did you hang your head?" Grandma Ann couldn't stop laughing.
"That's how it is said, the heart hangs over you, memorize a few more words, write a few more words, get closer, play for a while, far away, the hanging thread pulls the heart, and the pain is uncomfortable." Wang Funian clutched his chest.
Grandma Ann smiled and bent over.
