Where did Xie Wan expect that he would also sneak attack? jumped up in a panic, and then hurriedly went to pick up the snow in his back, but today he came out wearing a pomegranate skirt with a belt, and his clothes were tied, and the snow was in his back, where could he pull it out? It was cold and biting for a while, and I couldn't help but tremble.
Yuxue had to hurriedly help her down the mountain.
When I got to the house, I changed my clothes, and I was already sneezing seven or eight times in a row.
Wei Xian and Luo Ju returned before the meal with a large basket of winter bamboo shoots, not knowing that she had caught a cold.
When I saw her blowing her nose with a handkerchief, I finally found out and asked worriedly, "Are you okay?" ”
Xie Wan didn't bat him angrily and shook his head.
Wei Xian looked at her red nose, and suddenly felt guilty: "It's all my fault." Drink a bowl of ginger soup! ”
"I've drunk it." Xie Wan said hurriedly, and then pointed to a fragrant table on the table: "Hungry, right?" Let's eat. ”
Where could she really blame him? It's just a child.
Wei Xian held the bowl, tasted the dish with chopsticks first, and then put a lot of bamboo shoots and mushrooms in her bowl, and said, "This is delicious." You eat more, and you have more strength to eat well. Then he touched her forehead, and quickly took off the outer robe, covered her, and wrapped her tightly: "Is it warmer?" ”
Xie Wan's eyes were a little moist. Although Wei Xian is a child, he doesn't know the severity, but he is not bad in the end.
She nodded and smiled, "It's much warmer!" ”
Wei Xian happily picked up the bowl and took a big bite of rice.
Xie Wan didn't dare to bring Wei Xian out for too long, if the family found out that he was missing, most of them would go crazy.
So I took a break after dinner. So he set up a car and went back to the city.
Along the way, Xie Wan felt that his head was getting heavier and heavier, and sitting in the car seemed to be in danger of slipping down at any time. Wei Xian also saw it. At first, I didn't dare to touch her, but later I saw that she couldn't even open her eyelids. Then he had the courage to break her over and let her lean on his shoulder.
Yuxue saw it from the side, and hurriedly reached out to help Xie Wan to her side, although his worried look made people unbearable to look at directly, but when it came to the girl's name, he couldn't help but be sloppy.
Xie Wan slept until outside the gate of Xie's mansion.
On the way, Yuxue probed her forehead from time to time, and her face became more and more heavy.
With Xie Lang's answer, Wei Xian got off the car outside the gate of the mansion, from 100 ~ 10,000 # ^^ small! Say go through the side door over there.
Here Yuxue awakens Xie Wan. After entering the Yifeng Temple, a doctor was quickly called. Xie Lang was so anxious that he followed the doctor and asked long questions.
In the end, it was a cold and a cold.
I slept all night, took medicine and sweated a little, and it wasn't until night that I regained a trace of energy.
Xie Lang knew that Xie Wan was out with Wei Xian, and it was inconvenient to blame Wei Xian, so he scolded Luo Ju and Yuxue, blaming them for not taking good care.
I haven't seen Wei Xian in the house for most of the day, so I was so anxious to look for someone everywhere. However, no one was suspicious of Xie Wan, but the Huang family heard that Xie Wan was sick when he went out, so he and Xie Wei came over to take a look in the evening and explained. At that time, Xie Wan was sleeping. I didn't know they were coming, so I couldn't talk about it.
Xie Wan woke up in the middle of the night, ate a bowl of porridge, and fell asleep again. When I woke up again, it was already noon the next day.
Wei Xian was sitting in front of the bed. Look nervous.
At this time, Xie Lang went to school, and Wei Xian wanted to come in. There was no one to stop him.
Xie Wan sat up, his head still hurt a little, but his hands and feet were much stronger.
"Why are you here?"
Wei Xian tugged the quilt for her and said, "I said that I came here to find your brother to come in, I was going to leave in the evening, and I was worried that you would not be well and could not say goodbye to you, so I came." ”
As he spoke, he lowered his head guiltily and scratched at the carving on the edge of her bed, "I didn't mean to make you sick, I'm sorry." ”
Xie Wan smiled: "It's okay." I know you didn't mean to. Seeing that he couldn't let go of his feelings, and was afraid that he would fall ill from now on, he changed his mouth and moved the topic to his head: "After you leave here, do you want to go back to Jingshi directly, or do you want to go back to Hejian Mansion?" ”
"Back to Riverhouse. I'm going to wait until February on my mother's birthday. After saying that, he stood up, looked at her with clenched fists, and said, "Don't worry, I will never tell anyone about the two of us." When you come to Jingshi in the future, remember to come to me. I'll come to see you when I'm free, and I'll definitely come. ”
Xie Wan couldn't help but laugh when he heard his solemn appearance.
What do you call the two of them? If people hear it, it will inevitably cause people to have a big misunderstanding. I had the heart to remind him of two sentences, and when I saw his black and white eyes, I couldn't help it. He looks shrewd on the outside, but in fact he is simple in his heart, and he has no shackles when he gets along with the girls, and he is naturally unintentional when he says this, so he doesn't get entangled, nods, and when he responds, he sees him out.
Xie Wan lay in the room for three or four days before getting out of bed and going out.
At this time, the New Year has passed, and the house has gradually returned to its former calm. The small ripples brought about by Wei Xianam's visit gradually calmed down.
Xie Wan hung the picture of Songgang painted by Wei Xian in the study of Baoxia, which was a very eye-catching position. She will always remember who saved her on Songgang and comforted her, whenever she thinks of this, her heart has infinite warmth.
As soon as the snow clears, spring comes.
In February, the imperial court's decision to expand the forest land on the outskirts of Beijing was finally issued, and a large area of farmland was included in the planning scope. Some of the original residents were relocated to Beijing or Baoding. A new wave of transportation peaks began on Caoyun, and many people along the canal went to the wharf to work as river workers, and the words "Caoyun" and "Caobang" also appeared more and more in people's mouths.
By the time the Zhenyuan Dart Bureau finally opened a branch in Qinghe County, it was already the season when Luo Yi embroidered clothes and fluttered butterflies.
In three months, Xie Wan received two letters from Zhao Zhen from Beijing.
The letter said that after Xie Rong entered the Hanlin Academy, he quickly won the favor of his colleagues and Shangfeng with a low-key and humble attitude, and in the past year since he joined the company, his reputation among scholars and literati has gradually risen, so he not only got acquainted with some new officials of the six ministries and three temples, but also some subordinate officials below, and his impression of him was also very good.
Zhao Zhen also mentioned one thing in the letter, Zeng Mi of Guangenbo Mansion was recently promoted to the commander of Nancheng in the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, and Guangenbo Mansion has recently begun to walk around in the noble circle again. Last month, Zeng Mi and his wife were also invited to attend the birthday banquet of Princess Lao Jingjiang. Because Zhao Zhen knew the friendship between the Xie Ren family, he mentioned it by the way.
King Jingjiang was the eldest son of the emperor's elder brother, King Chen. King Chen has passed away. Yin Xin, the king of Jingjiang, should have inherited the throne two years ago. Because now there is an order from the imperial court, the fief will be cancelled below the county king level. So Yin Xin did not go far away from Beijing.
In my impression, Yin Xin is an idle prince and grandson, who likes these banquets very much, and spends all day drinking in the flower street and willow lane.
And Yin Xin's little sister married Zheng Zhong, the second brother of Concubine Zheng's mother's family in the East Palace.
Xie Wan didn't care about the Ren family, she threw it into the incense burner after reading the letter. These intricate relationships don't have much to do with her.
She called Luo Ju: "We must find a way to contact the people of the Cao Gang as soon as possible." The shop must open next year. If necessary, go directly to them. ”
Luo Ju thought for a moment and said, "Go and find it directly, it may not be possible." The people of the Cao Gang are extremely black against private merchants. If there were no acquaintances to help, maybe most of our profits from a boatload of rice would be cut by them. ”
"And what do you have to do?" Xie Wan knocked on the table with a pen, "I've been waiting for the opportunity for half a year, and if I wait any longer, I will lose the opportunity." Don't talk about making money! ”
Luo Ju didn't have a good way.
Xie Wan thought for a while and said: "Nowadays, many people are helping at the Caoyun Wharf, and your father sees a lot of people in the shop every day, so let him pay attention to whether there are any people from the Cao Gang, or see if there are people who can talk to the Cao Gang, and if there are any, keep some heart." ”
Luo Ju agreed and retreated.
Here Xie Wan pondered for a moment. I picked up the pen and sent a letter to Zhao Zhen, asking him to help hire a more experienced account room.
Zhao Zhen was locked in the house after receiving the letter from Jingshi for a long time and did not come out.
Mrs. Zhao said: "Just ask for a tent, what are you doing with a sad face?" ”
Zhao Zhen sighed: "If it is really an ordinary tent, where does she need my help?" The three girls have hills and ravines in their chests. You can't do things like ordinary people. Now that she is getting older, due to her identity, she can't come forward in person for many things. I guess the tent she was looking for was probably someone who could do things for her. said that he was a master, but he was afraid that he would come to find it as a shogunate. ”
Mrs. Zhao exclaimed: "She is a girl's family." Looking for the shogunate too? ”
Zhao Zhen smiled bitterly: "You still look at her with such thoughts until now, no wonder ordinary people say that your hair is long and your knowledge is short." Why do you think she went to such great lengths to push me into the house? She was paving the way for their second room. I'm just a pawn in her chess game. She asked me to find a shogunate for her, and it was also a little tempting for me to understand her depths. ”
Mrs. Zhao was speechless for a long time, she really couldn't imagine a boudoir woman, no matter how capable she was, where could she go? She said, "So, what are you going to do?" Is it sincere to look for her, or is it pretending to be confused and looking for a random one? ”
"Naturally, you have to look for it sincerely." Zhao Zhen sighed and put the letter down, "It's all here, if she goes well, it won't be all good for me." ”
Mrs. Zhao nodded silently and sighed slightly.
Xie Wan soon received a reply from Zhao Zhen, which contained several resumes, most of which were old people whom Zhao Zhen had known for many years, and two were his masters when he was abroad.
Xie Wan chose a down-and-out son named Cheng Yuan, he is one of the two masters, his ancestral home is Shaoxing, he originally followed Zhao Zhen to stay in Zhaoqing for three years, and after changing his boss, he was kicked out by his boss under another name and replaced by his own person. Since then, I have not found a suitable errand, and now I am at home.
Zhao Zhen said that Cheng Yuan would arrive at Qinghe directly from Shaoxing.
Xie Wan calculated the days, and it would be a month before Cheng Yuan came over, and Luo Sheng here already had some eyebrows, and she had to follow up on the matter of Cao Yun before he arrived.
Luo Sheng recently noticed a person named Chang Wu around the shop, this person is a native of Xiling Village in the western suburbs of this county, his family is poor, and he has been logging for people, and at the beginning of the year, he was introduced by an acquaintance to Cangzhou Wharf as a slender man, and he became the leader of the slender man team in a few months.
Because he had some spare money on hand, he would go to the county tavern to drink two cups as soon as he arrived at Xiumu, and because Lizi Hutong was close to the West City Gate, the tavern opposite the silk shop became his permanent residence.
"This man is quite fierce, and the little one has been in contact with him twice, and it can be seen that he is the kind of reckless and ignorant person. The girl can consider whether she can use it or not, if she can't, the small one will look at someone else. ”
Luo Sheng stood in the window on the second floor, pointing to a person sitting with his legs bent in the Li Ji Tavern diagonally opposite, but Luo Sheng said that Xie Wan could also see that this person was fierce, in April, he was naked and wearing a vest, and he was still open, with a large tuft of hair on his chest, and a big beard on his face, which made people want to go away at a glance.
