Seeing that the emperor refused to stand on the same front with him, Prince Ren was a little angry, but he was very loyal to the monarch and did not dare to oppose the emperor's intentions, so he lowered his head aggrievedly and muttered: "I didn't book the Xiao family for my son anyway, I don't recognize it." ”

"Then I had no choice but to give marriage. I think back then, I promised him a marriage. Emperor Yongchang said helplessly, his imperial power couldn't suppress Qian Jun, so he had to suppress Prince Ren, an honest man.

Prince Ren burst into tears, sighed, kowtowed, and withdrew.

Looking at Uncle Wang's aging back, Emperor Yongchang also felt sad, and he angrily patted Qian Jun's secret fold on the table: "You are really a rebel!" ”

Thousands of miles away, Qian Jun rode a horse and walked side by side with Wen Jin on the way back to Nanlin Mansion, he sneezed a few times one after another, raised his hand and touched his feverish earlobe, and said to Wen Jin with a wry smile: "It seems that there is more than one person who scolds me behind my back." ”

Wen Jin smiled: "Since you have done it, don't be afraid to bear the consequences, the deployment of the two uncles, you didn't listen to one, and it is reasonable to be scolded." ”

"I am not afraid of them scolding me, I am most afraid that my father-in-law will scold me, I will live up to his expectations and put you and the child in danger."

"It's also that I'm not calculating."

"Good my wife, in front of your father-in-law, don't say that, your arrangement in Chenzhuang is really elusive, even I can't think of myself, my father-in-law doesn't know how to praise you when he hears it, and he definitely doesn't know how to scold me."

"How can I blame you? It was my majesty who was not strict and let that stupid sister-in-law go out, otherwise, how could I make that mistake? Maybe it's God's will, didn't we just catch the harmful Chen Erzi and Li San? With these two people correcting, Yao Guangyuan will be ironclad in harming you, and there is a reward for paying, I don't take risks, can I do it? ”

"Oh, that's right." Although Qian Jun's ability is superhuman, but growing up in this era, superstition is inevitable, who would have thought that Chen Erzi sold poisonous longan to hide back to his hometown, and happened to be in Chenzhuang?

Expecting that the emperor would receive Qian Jun's secret fold, he would definitely recruit them back to Beijing, Qian Jun and Wen Jin packed their luggage and left the property of Nangang City to be taken care of by reliable people, and they walked to Nanlin Mansion, Wen Jin also wanted to take another look at the old father, and take a look at the *** that he had never seen before-Mrs. Xiao drank the Chinese medicine that Xiao Yi begged from Lao Dao, and gave birth to a little boy successfully, and now, it is almost a hundred days.

Most of the time, Wen Jin still rode in a carriage, listening to the squeaky sound, and finally returned to his destination after almost two months in a hurry.

After receiving the news from the family, Xiao Yi couldn't help but be full of joy, ordered someone to prepare a car, and took his son and grandson to meet him outside the city - it was already winter at this time, although the winter in Nanlin Mansion was very warm, but he was still afraid that his wife and young son, who had not been giving birth soon, would go out in the wind, so that their mother and son, as well as the daughter-in-law with a big belly, were waiting at home.

Seeing the old father, Wen Jin's throat choked for a while: "Daddy, my daughter is not filial, which makes you tired." ”

"I'm not tired, my father is not tired at all, come on, gold, money, come to my grandfather, see who this is?"

Jin Jin and Qian Qian kowtowed to their grandfather according to Wen Jin's request, and then looked at their grandfather's carriage suspiciously, and a little boy with pink makeup came out, but they didn't know each other.

Xiao Qixuan is older than Jin Jin and smaller than Qian Qian, although the three of them have met, how old were they at that time? There is no memory at all.

"Xiao Xuan, call cousin."

"Cousin."

"Here, this is my cousin."

"Cousin."

Wen Jin, Qian Jun and Xiao Yuchen stood aside, watching the three little ones salute each other, Qian Qian was unstable on his feet, and he had to be supported by someone to barely do the etiquette, but this child is very tough, if his brother can do it, he will also do it.

Licheng, all the people got into the carriage and walked to the city, Wen Jin hugged his youngest son and joked: "You are a little strong seed, so strong, why don't you speak, your brother is so big, but he will be called mother, father, and grandparents." ”

Unexpectedly, Qian Qian understood, and his little face turned red, but his little mouth was still tightly closed, and he just didn't speak.

Wen Jin hugged her son distressedly: "I'm sorry, my mother won't laugh at you anymore, Qian Qian is a good boy, good." ”

She said this, but she was very worried in her heart, afraid that her ridicule just now would stimulate the child's young heart.

Mrs. Xiao sat down this month, was raised to be round and jade, the original person looked a little thin, now not only more rich gas, but also softer and more beautiful than before, the winter in Nanlin Mansion is also very warm, there is no need to make a brazier in the room, in order to prevent moisture, pregnant women almost every day to eat a homemade sweet rice wine.

Xiao Yi asked for a recipe from Lao Dao, and put it in it when making wine, which not only helps to promote blood circulation and eliminate blood stasis, nourish the body, but also have the effect of beautifying and nourishing the skin, otherwise, Mrs. Xiao will not change from a black girl to a white rich beauty, Wen Jin almost couldn't recognize it, if it weren't for Mrs. Xiao smiling at her, she would have thought that there were relatives at home.

"I've seen Madame!" Take the two children to Mrs. Xiao.

"Hurry up, hurry up." Mrs. Xiao gave a smile on her face.

Wen Jin accepted the salute of his younger siblings and little nephew again, and then asked the two sons to salute their aunt, and then the salute between the little old cousins, Jin Jin was already familiar with Xiao Xuan, and after saluting, he took his little hand and ran out to play, Xiao Yuchen's youngest daughter hesitated for a moment, and also chased out: "Brother, don't run so fast, be careful of falling." ”

"Yo, this sister is very competent." Wen Jin praised.

Shi Xiaomei smiled: "Xiaoya is very sensible. ”

Mrs. Xiao bent down and scooped the money in her arms, "Oh, you can walk, villain?" Come, call grandmother. ”

The money was silent.

Wen Jin explained embarrassedly: "This kid walks early, but he doesn't speak. ”

"Don't worry, your nobleman is late."

While speaking, the nurse hugged Mrs. Xiao's son and saluted Wen Jin, and Mrs. Xiao spoke for her son on the side: "I've seen your eldest sister." ”

"Come, sister, hug." Wen Jin, a half-mother***, looks very sturdy and holds it heavily in her hands.

"Like his uncle, he has thick eyebrows." Mrs. Xiao explained.

Wen Jin took a closer look: "Madam, except for the eyebrows, everything else looks like a father, you look at these big Danfeng eyes, Yuchen and I are not as good as him like a father, and this small nose bridge, how stiff, hehe, so handsome." ”

There is no mother who doesn't like to listen to praise her son, Mrs. Xiao also feels that her son and her husband look alike, and when she heard her stepdaughter say this, she couldn't help but smile from the corner of her mouth.

Xiao Yi helped his wife arrange a banquet, and then walked in with his son, Xiao Yuchen is now helping his father take care of government affairs, he originally planned to enter the imperial examination, but when he saw the officialdom dumping, he was cheating, and seeing that his father was getting older and older, he was very greedy for a happy life with his family, he changed his mind again, now the taxes of Nanlin Mansion, one percent of the Xiao family, this wealth is comparable to the royal family, even if he or his younger brother will be the lord in the future, and there will be half of the income, it is also a rare wealth in Jurong, the Xiao family is not earning power now, Instead, he had to learn how to keep his light and obscurity, so as not to let the emperor find fault and take away the title.

The days in her mother's house are pleasant, Mrs. and her younger siblings raise Wen Jin as a pet pig, eat well and dress well, and there is nothing to do, Qian Jun also went out with his father-in-law and brother-in-law, inspected and inspected the people's conditions, discussed and discussed the principles of governing the world, Jin Jin and Qian Qian, they were busy playing with their cousins and cousins, and occasionally, the four little guys surrounded the little uncle (uncle) and watched him lie in the cradle and spit bubbles.

The Jin family heard that Qian Jun came back from Nangang City, and came to visit once, Jin Dalang's abacus has been very slippery, and his fisherwoman's wife was also taught by Mrs. Jin to know a lot of silkworm knowledge, when talking to Wen Jin, it is not the same as before, except for knowing fish, everything else does not understand, the etiquette of treating people and things, it is not sloppy at all, it seems that a lot of effort has been put in, her little daughters, when they see Wen Jin, the etiquette is also meticulous, no longer hiding behind their mother, timid.

Although the Jin family is no longer related to the Xiao Mansion, because of such a relationship, no one in the current Nanlin Mansion provokes him, and Jin Guanshan knows how to measure himself, whether it is paying taxes or treating employees, he has done nothing wrong, and he has also won the respect of the people nearby, and some people have already called him Jin Yuanwai.

Wen Jin is very satisfied with all this, and she really hopes that life will go on like this forever, carefree, calm and safe.

However, life is like this, there are no waves, there is no preciousness of peace, there is no bitterness, there is no sweet taste, the matter of Nangang City is sent to the capital, and the emperor's decree will come down, and Qian Jun will bring his family into Beijing.

It was a good spring of the year, and the silkworm farmers led by the Jin family were busy taking care of the silkworm babies, and Qian Jun and Wen Jin's carriage left without attracting much attention.

Xiao Yi's eyes were red, and he promised Wen Jin: "Daddy is writing to the emperor, and he will go to the capital soon, don't worry, if there is something, Daddy will help you." ”

Wen Jin was sad, his father was getting old, and he wanted the family to be together more and more, no wonder his younger brother made such a decision to give up the imperial examination that he had been preparing for many years and become a rich man with peace of mind.

The imperial examination can also not enter the official career, and it is easy to do things with fame, Xiao Yuchen is reluctant to let his father be sad for him, when thinking of this, Wen Jin has a moment of shame, and feels that he is indeed inferior to an ancient person in maintaining family affection.

Fortunately, in this world, when a daughter marries, it is the water that is spilled, and it is not allowed to be nostalgic for her mother's family, Xiao Yi is reluctant to let her daughter go, but she can accept the reality that her daughter is not around.

Maybe Xiao Yuchen in infancy will grow up and be able to occupy the old man's heart, Xiao Yuchen will not have such a big impact on his father when he goes out.

Just like when he came back, Xiao Yi took his son and grandson, and this time, together with his granddaughter, sent Wen Jin to the outside of Nanlin Mansion.

Nanlinfu City already has the prototype of the city, surrounded by stone walls, the four corners of the city gate open and close in the morning, there is an area where officials gather in the city, and there are people who enter the city to do small business, and there are also rich people like the Jin family, who made a fortune by raising silkworms and growing tea, and went into the city to buy land to build a house, and a few servants were responsible for sprinkling and sweeping on weekdays, and moved to the city in winter, and had a good rest and enjoyment.

There is a street pavilion ten miles outside the city, and the carriage that saw it off stopped here: "Daddy, when you arrive in the capital, I will write to you soon, don't worry." Wen Jin said goodbye.

Qian Jun's words to his father-in-law were like this: "Lord Taishan, in the past, Qian Jun was ignorant, so you were tired of the old man, but now, I have a family, I have a wife and children, I know what is the most important thing, those reckless and helpless actions will never appear again, I will definitely give Jin'er a happy life, I will put this here today, you always wait and see." ”

Xiao Yi had tears in the corners of his eyes: "Good boy, you are all good, I believe that when you arrive in the capital, you have to live a good life, wealth and status are all external things, and staying with your relatives, that is the most important thing, you remember." ”

"Yes, I remember."

Knowing that the longer he stayed here, the stronger the old man's sadness would be, and it would have the greatest impact on his body, Qian Jun decisively let Wen Jin take the child into the carriage, and he also turned over on the horse and said goodbye to his father-in-law.

Probably walking out of a stone's throw away, Wen Jin suddenly heard Xiao Xuan's cry: "Brother, no one will play with me tomorrow." ”

The childhood friendship is the purest, the two little old watches, this time they say goodbye, they see each other far away, Wen Jin saw the gloomy color on Jin Jin's face, and couldn't help but have hot eyes and sour nose, leaving tears.

After walking for more than half a month, I arrived at the seaport in the east, and waited here for eight days before a big ship going north passed by, Qian Jun had a guide from the imperial court, and the big ship would never dare to refuse, and also vacated the best top cabin for Wen Jin and them to live in.

Wen Jin was also worried that the owner of the ship would be unhappy, but he didn't expect that as soon as he settled down, the captain of the ship came over to kowtow to him, he smiled so much that he couldn't see a trace of depression at all.

The boat was sailed, in order to satisfy the child's curiosity, Wen Jin and Qian Jun also stayed on the deck for a while, the salty and wet sea breeze, with a strong smell of water, at first it was bearable, and it didn't take long to feel cold, besides, the endless blue on the sea, the waves overturned, back and forth was such a scene, the two children were also bored, Wen Jin saw Qian Qian's upper and lower eyelids sticking together, so he hugged his son and walked back.

Qian Jun also picked up Jin Jin, and stretched out his left hand to protect Wen Jin, lest the ship sway, she would stand unsteadily and fall.

The cabin was not big, so Wen Jin asked for a separate room, and the two children and their nurse also had one each, Chunming and Xia Yang were next door to her, but Qian Jun's little girl was not on the top floor - there was no room.

"I was also worried that the captain of the boat would be reluctant to let us take the ride, but I didn't expect to be so enthusiastic.

Qian Jun smiled: "You don't know this, let's take his boat, when we get there, the city will exempt a lot of taxes and silver, and the light is not ordinary, why doesn't he want us to take his boat?" ”

It turned out that this was the case, and in the following days, Wen Jin became calm in the face of the captain's courtesy, unlike at the beginning, he always felt a little guilty.

Maybe Qian Qian sleeps a lot, and the seasickness is not bad, but Jin Jin and Wen Jin always feel nauseous and nauseated, they can't eat, they can't sleep well, and within a few days, both of them have lost weight significantly.

Qian Jun originally planned to start teaching Jin Jin to practice pranayama after entering Beijing, but he had to advance this plan, and even Wen Jin also meditated cross-legged every day and practiced qi.

Wen Jin's effect is not very obvious, and he is still a little nauseous, but Jin Jin quickly became normal, jumping around every day, Qian Jun was afraid that the nurse would not be able to look at the child, and if there was any mistake, most of the time, he personally led his son.

This season, the southeast wind blows more, the ship goes smoothly, and the speed is much faster than before, the boat boss said, sometimes it takes three months to get to the North Port, this trip, it is expected to be less than two months.

Without a refrigerator, it is impossible to bring a lot of vegetables, and the daily diet is based on dried vegetables and sun-dried seafood, which is okay at first, but later, the stubborn Qian Qian would rather eat white rice than vegetables.

"If you don't eat, you won't eat, just wait until you get off the boat." Qian Jun felt sorry for his son, and he couldn't stand it when he saw Wen Jin forcibly feeding the child.

"If you don't eat vegetables, you're going to get sick."

"I haven't heard of it, you see that the child is made to cry, if you don't eat it, you won't eat, maybe in two days, he won't get tired of this smell, so he will open his mouth again, the more you force it, the more sad the child will be, it's not like this."

Wen Jin couldn't resist his son, so he had to give up, but fortunately, the journey was not long, and when Jin Jin got off the boat, he was still lively and strong, so Wen Jin was relieved.

got off the boat and went to the capital, there was less than a month away, Qian Jun was doing his best at this time, sometimes he couldn't walk more than ten miles a day, and he didn't let go of any of the places of interest along the way, even at the expense of walking hundreds of miles, during which he also visited an old man, saying that his grandfather was the last time he was an examiner in his old age, and he was admitted to the champion.

"When he was plotted by the Liu family and lost his official position, he was angry, so he lived in seclusion in the countryside, concentrated on learning, and in the past 20 years, he has become the first university scholar since the Jurong Dynasty."

"So powerful?"

"Hmm, what is it if you can't be an official? Hundreds of thousands of years later, who still remembers Guan'er? But those touching poems and articles are truly eternal. Qian Jun said, a look of envy and yearning flashed in his eyes.

"After my husband returns to Beijing, do you want to concentrate on your studies?"

"Hehe" Qian Jun laughed self-deprecatingly: "Don't say that I have forgotten most of what I have learned before, that is, I remember it all, how much can I learn when I am a child?" Light is mischievous. ”

Wen Jin was silent, if Qian Jun was dedicated to learning when he was a child, wouldn't he have let Liu Caiqin kill him earlier? As soon as he thought of entering Beijing, he inevitably had to face those dirty things, and Wen Jin's mood became depressed.

Qian Jun seemed to see through his wife's thoughts, and when no one was around, he quietly took Lawen Jin's hand: "While the weather is sunny now and the flowers are red, let's take a good stroll, there may not be such a good opportunity in the future." When Wen Jin heard this, he finally understood why he deliberately delayed, and then he also let go of his heart and smiled: "Mo Daoqing is innocent and unreasonable, and he has to be free when he is free?" Qian Jun laughed: "Those who know me, love their wives, and they must be happy in life." ”
