Chapter 121: The Station
Blossoming Splendid 121_Chapter 121 The post station is from Bayi Chinese Network (.) Those guards of Yingchuan Hou are well-trained, they are more thoughtful and considerate than Zheng San thought, they don't need to care about anything, they just need to follow these guards.
In just half a month, they left the Xingdu Division and settled in Ningjing County.
Zheng San first went to the silver building, exchanged the cash in Fu Tingyun's hand for a silver ticket, and then found a business house to go to Zhangye, and brought the clothes, shoes and socks made by Fu Tingyun for Zhao Ling's birthday.
They were in a hurry, Fu Tingyun had just cut his clothes, and these days he was in a hurry, Fu Tingyun slept during the day, and rushed to do needlework at night. Although it was too late to send it at this time, it was her intention.
The things were sent out, and Fu Tingyun breathed a sigh of relief.
Thinking of this time last year, she went shopping with Zhao Ling for the first time, Zhao Ling gave her two headbands back, and they also met Shopkeeper Ye...... I don't know if Shopkeeper Ye arrived in Xi'an Mansion smoothly?
After resting for the night, they continued on their way.
When they reached Wushan County, it rained heavily, and the carriage pulling the cage left deep wheel marks on the muddy road, and the next day, when they passed a mountain road, they were surrounded by bandits.
There were only twenty of them, but there were thirty or forty of the bandits.
Fu Tingyun looked numb in his heart, and his legs were weak, but he still pulled Ah Sen to prevent him from going down: "Wait until those guards can't support it." "I regret that I shouldn't have fired those dart masters.
The guards of the Marquis of Yingchuan were not afraid, the leading guard was surnamed Jane, and with a gesture, those guards untied their bows and crossbows from behind, and the arrows shot towards the group of bandits like meteors.
The bandits, who were at the front, didn't even have time to draw their swords, and they fell down in wailing.
One of the bandits shouted in horror: "They are using the bows and crossbows of the army!" ”
Jane's guard sneered. Only then did he say loudly: "We are under the command of the Marquis of Yingchuan, the chief soldier of Gansu. ”
When the bandits heard this, they immediately screamed and dispersed like birds and beasts.
The guards did not chase after them, and let the remnants of the bandits run into the mountains.
They walked away calmly.
At night, resting at the post station, the county magistrate and the county magistrate of Wushan County rushed over.
Jane sat there with a golden sword, and Ren Wushan County's parents were sweating profusely explaining to him why there were bandits in Wushan County.
Ah Sen excitedly told Fu Tingyun to listen, but Fu Tingyun sighed secretly, and his heart hurt Zhao Linglai.
owes such a big favor to Ying Chuanhou, he doesn't know how much he has to pay to pay it off!
She was determined to break up with the guards when she arrived in Kyoto. Then let Zheng San send a generous gift to the Fuguo Mansion to show her gratitude, as for buying a house, she still has to figure it out by herself!
After that, the journey was very peaceful, and when the snow fell in the sky, they arrived at Xi'an.
Fu Tingyun thought of the hardships along the way. Zheng San found an inn in a more prosperous area of Xi'an Mansion, chartered a quiet courtyard in the inn, and arranged several tables of wine banquets to entertain those guards.
Xi'an is the capital of Shaanxi, and the public security is naturally not comparable to ordinary counties and prefectures, those guards put their minds at ease, drank and fought with Zheng San, leaving only two on duty, and sending two escorts Fu Tingyun to Yangliu Lane.
Master Lu and Mrs. Lu were taken aback when they saw her. He took her hand and asked, "What's wrong?" What about the Ninth Master? He looked at the two burly, powerful, and unusual guards with a look of disbelief.
"The ninth master is very good, he has made military merits and has been promoted to 100 households." Fu Tingyun hurriedly calmed them down, and then said, "...... My relative in Kyoto was unwell, and I rushed to see her. ”
At the beginning, Zhao Ling sent the gold ingots to report to his relatives in Kyoto, and the Lu family and his wife knew about it. Hearing this, she was immediately relieved, and she was even more overjoyed to know that Zhao Ling had risen to 100 households, and Mrs. Lu also had to go to Guangren Temple to make a vow: "I promised the Bodhisattva to donate twenty taels of silver for sesame oil." ”
Master Lu warmly invited the two guards into the house to have a cup of tea.
"No need!" The two guards stood there as if they were told, "We are ordered to act, so we will wait here." "His expression was a little cold.
Master Lu thought that these people were the guards of the Marquis of Yingchuan, standing at the door, wouldn't they snub the guests? And persuade each other. Fu Tingyun thought of Ah Sen's scene when he talked about the scene when Jian Escort met the parents and officials of Wushan County, and knew that if it wasn't for the orders of the Marquis of Yingchuan, these people would not look at them with their eyes, so he smiled before Master Lu and said: "Since you are acting on orders, then there are two military masters!" He said to Mrs. Lu again. The weather is cold, and the maid will send a cup of hot tea to the two military masters to warm up. In this way, it can be regarded as a full number of courtesies.
When Master Lu and Mrs. Lu saw Fu Tingyun talking, they were no longer reluctant, and welcomed Fu Tingyun in with a smile, and sat down in Mrs. Lu's inner room with hot tea and snacks.
Knowing that Fu Tingyun would have to buy a house after entering Beijing, Master Lu thought about it and said, "Then I'll follow you into Beijing, so as not to be fooled." ”
"How is this good?" Fu Tingyun hurriedly said, "You are old, this windy and snowy ......"
"Let him go with you!" When Mrs. Lu saw it, she smiled and said on the side, "You are young and ignorant, and you have a lot of tips for buying and selling houses." Seeing that you are from outside, or that one of you is pretending to be a tooth man, and another is pretending to be the owner of the house, and you are defrauding you of money; or repaint the house whose pillars are going to rot, and sell it to you as a new house. Or take a relative's property to fool you into a few of your subscriptions...... With him with him, there are also many people who help run errands. Besides, he's idle at home, so it's good to go to Kyoto to see the excitement! "The attitude is very sincere.
Fu Tingyun made up her mind not to trouble the Fuguo Mansion, and Zheng San was just a dart master before, so it was okay for him to take care of the guards, and it was a little stretched to deal with those servants of the government, she was worried that there was no one available, and when she heard the Lu family and his wife say this, she couldn't help but be moved. After pondering for a while, he smiled and said, "Then there is Master Lao Lu!" ”
"Look at what the girl said," Mrs. Lu was very happy to see that she didn't see the two of them, "we have received such a great favor from the Ninth Master, and now we are just doing something to show our hands...... Miss Fu must not be so polite in the future. ”
Fu Ting responded with a smile, and Master Lu talked about the sale of land: "The rent of the three shops and the income from the fields in Chang'an County are all in my hands, and they add up to 1,200 taels." I can still find a way to make up 500 taels here, I think, it is better to sell 200 acres of land first, in this way, it will also solve the urgent need in Kyoto. The implication is that in the end, don't sell the land.
"You and I went together." Fu Tingyun smiled, "I didn't plan to sell it at all. I'm here to bother you to find a few honest and reliable tenants. ”
Zhao Ling always felt that the money given to her was her own money, and she was reluctant to use it.
"It's easy to do. It's easy to do. Hearing that there is no need to sell the land, Master Lu smiled so much that his eyes were crooked, "The tenants who rent our fields now are very honest. ”
The two talked about the things in the field for a while, and seeing that it was not early, Fu Tingyun got up and said goodbye.
Next. Mr. Lu sent over the year's income, and Mrs. Lu accompanied her to buy some native products from Xi'an, and after resting for two days, Mr. Lu quit Mrs. Lu and went to Kyoto with them.
On the day of the Laba Festival, they rested at a post station in Weinan County.
Fu Tingyun stood by the window lattice, looking at the fluttering snowflakes and was speechless for a long time.
Zheng Sanniang smiled and brought Laba porridge over: "Girl, I made it, you can taste it!" ”
Fu Tingyun sat on the kang with a smile. Tasted a few bites. Although it was like chewing wax, she still nodded: "Well, it tastes good." ”
Zheng Sanniang smiled and wiped her hands with her apron: "Then you eat first, and I'll serve some to Jane's guards." ”
Fu Tingyun smiled and bowed his head.
Zheng Sanniang lifted the thick cotton curtain, and a burst of crying and scolding came in.
“…… Stink//son, I'll let you steal, I'll let you steal! A man cursed loudly.
"I didn't steal, I didn't steal. You left it there and didn't want it, so I picked it up......"
Fu Tingyun was stunned.
The argument was a young woman's voice, thin, with a bit of stubbornness, but it was very familiar to hear.
Her expression changed, and she couldn't help but walk to the door.
The scolding was even clearer.
"What Lao Tzu lost is also Lao Tzu, who let you pick it up here. If you pick it up, it's just stealing ......" The man's voice was unreasonable, and then he made a few "bangs", like kicking sounds.
Strangely, the woman was not heard crying or begging for mercy.
Fu Tingyun walked over with the sound.
In the backyard of the inn, a thin man in a beautiful blue coarse cotton robe was kicking a woman curled up in the snow.
It's a cold day. The woman was wrapped in a few tattered summer shirts to protect herself from the cold, skinny as wood, and her naked/exposed skin was blue and purple from the cold.
"Stop!" Fu Tingyun frowned and shouted, "What did she steal from you?" ”
The thin man raised his head with a full face of anger, and when he saw clearly that it was the person who lived in today with the name of the Duke of Fuguo and the Marquis of Yingchuan, he immediately lowered his head respectfully, and said with some sincere fear: "Miss doesn't know, this is a depraved person, who often comes to the post station to steal things to eat." I'm afraid that she will bring dirty things into the kitchen, and what should I do if the nobles have diarrhea and dysentery? That villain is not a pity to die. I'm just going to teach this girl a lesson......"
"You're lying, I've never been in the kitchen." The woman huddled in the snow muttered, struggling to raise her head on her elbows.
Fu Tingyun turned his head to look over.
Their eyes met in the air.
Fu Tingyun was like being struck by lightning, and his face was like frost on the spot.
The woman's eyes widened, and her face was full of doubt: "I, I'm dreaming...... Could it be that I am already dead, so I saw Miss......" she said, shedding two lines of tears, "Miss, Miss," she crawled towards Fu Tingyun, "I'm sorry for you, I'm sorry for you......" On the snow, leaving a winding mark, "She followed me when she entered the mansion, I told her to comb her hair, told her to dress, told her how to stand, told her how to laugh...... Like my sister, she helps me pack your cage and I praise her for being well-behaved and sensible...... Miss ......" She stretched out her skinny hand and grabbed the corner of Fu Tingyun's skirt tremblingly, "It's me, it's me who hurt you, it's me who hurt you......" She fell to the ground and cried.

I wish you all a happy family during the Dragon Boat Festival!
