Chapter 67

When Song Nan returned to his new home in the courtyard house in Nanli East Lane, none of the Song family was at home except for Uncle Zhong.

When people from small places come to the prosperous place of the capital, they naturally want to go out to play, Song Mu must be looking for a temple where to burn incense, while others want to see the bustling street scene.

Song Nan changed his clothes, took a small stool and sat under the grape trellis in the yard to rest, Li Da Niu made a pot of tea and put it in front of him, seeing that Song Nan was frowning and thinking about things, he didn't dare to disturb, and went back to the house to talk to Uncle Zhong lightly; Fiddling with the newly arrived Jinyiwei's clothes and embroidered spring knives, don't mention how beautiful it is.

For him, being able to wear this dress is simply a dream to be happy, as for the anger that Brother Nan suffered in the yamen today, Li Daniu thinks that there is no place to help Song Nan, if you want to use your brain, don't go to the peace, Brother Nan has come up with a way to fight or scold, to be civil or martial, in short, he is the first to go.

Song Nan drank tea leisurely, the fragrance of flowers and plants in the yard came from the end of his nose, today's boredom gradually dissipated, although the area of this new home is not too large, but it is a single courtyard, the courtyard is spacious and comfortable, the square houses face the courtyard and open the door, each independent but connected by a verandah, the home is very suitable, and the mood will be much better if you live in such a house.

However, today's incident Song Nan didn't dare to take it lightly, he came to the capital as a new Jinyi Wei hundred, in fact, he didn't think about what to do in the future, in short, he climbed step by step, and climbed to the point that no one could bully him in this era; But I didn't expect to arrive in the capital, the blueprint in my heart was poured cold water before half of the pen was dropped, Jinyi Weili is not as easy to mix as Ulzhou Weizhong, and his current situation is a little embarrassing, and he has to change the status quo.

He is one of the seven hundredth households, according to Sun San and Qin Si, the responsibilities of the seven hundredth households are similar to the collection of urban management and police stations, the security of the community, trivial matters have to be managed, and the status is also an unpopular errand in the yamen of the Jinyi Wei Thousand Households in Zhengnanfang, and even the salaries of the people below are uneven, if it weren't for Sun San and others swearing, they wouldn't believe it if they were killed.

Zheng Zongqi is currently the boss, and the captains below listen to him, his own hundred households are just an empty shelf, no matter how righteous Zheng Zongqi is, Song Nan can't tolerate this, he has never been a puppet.

The problem is that Zheng Zongqi's relationship with the people below him is not trivial, if he simply suppresses it with his official position, it may work, but it will definitely lose the hearts of the people, without everyone's support, his own hundred households are still an empty shelf; If you think about it carefully, the root of the problem still lies in the status of the 700th household, if you can manage to pay the full amount of the captains' salaries, and be able to sit on an equal footing with others, these people will naturally have another evaluation of themselves.

But this matter is not easy to do, and it is not urgent, and the improvement of status needs to do something to shake the yamen of thousands of households, where is the opportunity for a while?

Song Nan thought about it and decided to come step by step, first do a good job in the relationship between the upper and lower levels, stabilize his position, and then think about other things; And there is only one quickest and most convenient way to do a good job in the relationship between the upper and lower levels, which can be summed up in one sentence: if you want to take it, you must give it first! Two more simple words: lure!

When the sun set, Song's mother and his party came back with a big bag and a small bag, for a time the yard was full of laughter, a few women went shopping and couldn't wait to move the whole Beijing city home, the cage package was placed in the open space in the yard, one by one to clean up and return to the house, in addition to eating and wearing things, Song's mother actually carefully invited a statue of Guanyin back for the incense case in the north house.

Everyone was busy for a while, and then they remembered to ask Song Nan how he went to the yamen today, Song Nan only said that everything was normal, but the newcomer needed to get used to it; Song's mother told Song Nan to have a good relationship with others, and not to lose his temper, Song Nan agreed repeatedly.

After dinner, Song Nan sat in the study and wanted to read a book for a while, the footsteps rustled outside, and the bamboo curtain was lifted, but it was Lu Qingli and Ye Fanggu who came, Lu Qingli flew in with a handful of fabric in his hand like a butterfly, and when he stood still, he took an elegant floral fabric and asked him: "Brother Song, is this fabric good?" ”

Song Nan put down the book and looked left and right: "It's very good, this material is suitable for making cheongsam." ”

"Cheongsam? How? The curious Lu Qingli immediately widened her eyes.

Song Nan suddenly remembered that there was no cheongsam in this year, so he squeezed his eyes and whispered: "I'll teach you to do it alone another day." ”

Lu Qingli's face turned red and said, "Brother Song knows everything, can he even make clothes?" ”

Song Nan patted his chest and said: "That's natural, I am known as Bai Xiaosheng in the rivers and lakes, from the major affairs of the court to the trivialities, I can afford to take them all and put them down." ”

Lu Qingli covered her mouth and giggled, and the two bulging things on her chest nodded directly at Song Nan through her thin shirt, Song Nan quickly turned her head and swallowed and spat and didn't dare to look at it again.

Ye Fanggu came in from behind, carrying a food box, and said to Lu Qingli: "Qingli, don't be naughty, tell you not to come, you want to come, I have something to say to Song Gongzi." ”

As he spoke, he placed the food box on the table and opened it, and took out a few packets of snacks from it and placed them on a small plate.

Lu Qingli said: "Cousin, I know that I will not spoil your good deeds, who doesn't know that you have something to whisper to Brother Song?" Okay, Brother Song gave it to you, do you want my sister to give you the wind. ”

Ye Fanggu was very angry and stretched out her hand to fight, but Lu Qingli lifted the bamboo curtain and ran out, shouting: "Brother Song, don't forget to teach me to make a cheongsam." ”

Song Nan smiled: "Don't dare to forget, who dares to offend you." ”

Lu Qingli smiled all the way out of the house and went back to the room.

Song Nan pulled over a chair and patted it, "Sit down, are you still having fun today?" ”

Ye Fanggu nodded and said, "I haven't gone out shopping for a long time, but I don't like it a little, I always feel that others don't look at me right." ”

Song Nan took her hand and said, "That's because you are too beautiful, you always have to take a few more glances when you meet a beautiful woman." ”

Ye Fanggu chirped: "No, do you think everyone looks like you?" ”

Song Nan laughed and said: "I seem to be a disciple, in fact, it is just your psychological effect, there is a saying called being a thief, you are too worried in your heart; In fact, you don't have to worry, the capital is thousands of miles away from Ulzhou, you have committed a lot of things in Ulzhou, and no one remembers these things when you arrive in the capital. ”

Ye Fanggu glanced at Song Nan and said: "The words are really ugly, what is called a thief with a weak heart, am I a thief?" ”

Song Nan smiled, and wanted to say: You are a thief who steals your heart, but I think Ye Fanggu doesn't like others to be too profligate, so she simply can't help but say it.

Ye Fanggu sighed and said, "Maybe you're right, it's in your heart; By the way, did you go well to take office today? ”

Song Nan said with a smile: "There is nothing smooth or unsmooth, it's just familiar with the environment and familiar people." ”

Ye Fanggu looked at Song Nan and said, "You have something on your mind, I can see it." ”

Song Nan smiled: "Don't guess, what's on your mind." ”

Ye Fanggu said: "Tell me, if I go and ask Da Niu, he will definitely say it." ”

Song Nan reached out to wrap his arms around her waist, pulled her head, kissed her on the pink lips, and said, "Why are you so sensitive." ”

Ye Fanggu said angrily: "That's because I care about you, I can see the changes in your words and deeds, and I don't want others to pay attention to me." ”

Song Nan picked up her body and hugged her on her lap, Ye Fanggu struggled to leave, was held down tightly by Song Nan, Ye Fanggu symbolically struggled a few times, afraid that Song Nan would be annoyed.

"It's not going well." Song Nan whispered in Ye Fanggu's ear: "Jinyi Wei is ganged up, and there is also collusion and suppression between each other, I am an outsider who suddenly arrived, how can I have my own place." ”

Song Nan whispered what happened to Ye Fanggu today, and said in the end: "Don't tell your mother about these things, I will solve it myself, I have already thought of a solution." ”

Ye Fanggu nodded and said, "How can I talk too much, I want to know what is making you worried, it's just to help you find a way." ”

Song Nan said: "Thank you, but it's better for me to solve these things myself, if you can live safely and happily, it is the greatest support for me." ”

Ye Fanggu shook her head and said, "I can't stay at home all day and live a leisurely life, and if you can't live in peace and happiness, how can this big family be stable and happy?" Maybe I can secretly help you with something. ”

Song Nan thought for a while and said: "It's okay, you are a heroine among women, and you are also very thoughtful, you are willing to help me, I will solve the affairs in the yamen by myself, but there are indeed some things that I am not convenient to come forward." ”

Ye Fanggu said: "What's the matter?" I'll do it for you. ”

Song Nan said: "You help me secretly inquire about the details of Zheng Zongqi, such as where is home?" What is the situation at home? The most important thing is what means he uses to squeeze money out of the market, in short, you can ask everything about him, you can ask; It's just one, be careful, that guy isn't good at stubble. ”

Ye Fanggu smiled: "Don't worry, did you learn all my kung fu in vain?" That's all for me. ”

Song Nan squeaked and kissed her on the mouth and said, "Good virtuous helper, first appreciate your mouth." ”

Ye Fanggu pushed Song Nan away with a red face, took out a small jade pendant from her sleeve and said, "This is a talisman I asked for you in Longan Temple, bring it, it is said to be very effective." ”

Song Nan said: "I actually believe in Buddhism, and you don't have to suffer so much if the Buddha can be useful." ”

Ye Fanggu covered Song Nan's mouth and said: "Don't talk nonsense, I'd rather believe in it than believe in it, people in the world make so many wishes every day, and the Buddha is so busy, there is always something that can't be taken care of." ”

Song Nan laughed out loud when she heard this, and Ye Fanggu was disgusted, and hung the jade pendant on Song Nan's neck with her own hands.

Song Nan's heart was moved, and she hugged her neck and gave her a long kiss, Ye Fanggu was gentle, the two were entangled for a long time, Ye Fanggu only felt that something on Song Nan's thigh sitting under her buttocks was getting harder and harder, and quickly got out of Song Nan's embrace, panting and said: "I'm leaving, this snack tastes very good, I specially brought it back for you to taste, you eat a few pieces and drink some tea to rest early." ”

Song Nan sighed bitterly, Ye Fanggu didn't dare to stay longer, for fear that she would agree to Song Nan's non-dividing request if her heart softened, so she sorted out the messy green silk and went in a hurry.
