Chapter 264: Into the City
With Shang Lu taking care of the years and years, Bai Mushuang can also rest assured, and just took this opportunity to go into the city with Jiaojiao to see the shop.
Bai Mushuang told Xiao Jingnian about the idea of wanting to enter the city, and Xiao Jingnian's face that looked like Xiao Ruoqing sank instantly: "Aunt Bai, isn't our life getting better?" Why are you starting to toss around again? ”
"It's not a toss-up." Bai Mushuang corrected, "In business, pay attention to a stable top, now the business of the pharmacy and the rice shop is not bad, of course, we have to develop in a better place, so that it is possible to make more money." ”
"What about the money earned?" He asked her, "Are you going to pay my father with that money?" ”
This doll is still full of his father's ambitions.
Bai Mushuang stretched out his hand and gently knocked on the door of his head, Xiao Jingnian was beaten a little painfully, and immediately threw an unbelievable expression at Bai Mushuang.
"Now that your father is doing things for His Majesty, where do we need to worry about the silver? The military salary is not issued by our ordinary people, you are young, you can't talk nonsense. ”
"I don't think it's worth it for my father to do things for the emperor now!" I don't know if Xiao Jingnian has a big heart or is unscrupulous, but in front of Bai Mushuang, he talked about the court and the current saint.
It's also a shame that they are now in Peach Blossom Town, if they are in the capital and let those who have a heart hear about it, then this matter will be a big trouble.
Bai Mushuang wanted to cover Xiao Jingnian's mouth, but she also knew that she shouldn't do it.
She lowered her voice and asked, "What else do you know?" ”
"My father used to be the general of the god of war, what he wanted, how majestic. Since he was framed by that little guy and ambushed on the battlefield, he was directly abandoned by the emperor, if it weren't for Aunt Bai, you saved your father with a wonderful hand and let him act as before, he would definitely still be unable to walk now. ”
"The emperor must have known all these things, why didn't he send a doctor to treat his father when he was seriously injured, but instead left him to fend for himself in a backward place like Wangjia Village? Don't just help me be a child, I know a lot of things. ”
Speaking of this, Xiao Jingnian looked up at Bai Mushuang: "We all remember your kindness to our family, what did the emperor do?" Verbally said that the official was reinstated, but in fact, he asked his father to do some unsightly things in the dark! ”
"Nian Nian, I know that you have a deep affection for your father, but this matter in the court, as well as the matter in the saint today, don't mention it again in the future."
"Why?"
"Don't you understand the truth that comes from the mouth? Many times you may feel that you are happy after saying this, but what are the consequences, have you thought about it? Wherever your father goes, what he does, as a family, we should all fully support, not question. ”
"Aunt Bai, I know." Bai Mushuang's words also made Xiao Jingnian deeply reflect on himself.
What she said is not wrong at all, as the so-called disaster comes from the mouth, he is happy in his heart after speaking, and when the time comes, it will be really troublesome to implicate his father.
He just felt worthless for his father, but he never thought of pushing Xiao Ruoqing into a dangerous situation.
"Then you go to the county, can I follow along?" The matter of scolding the court has passed like this, and Xiao Jingnian has put forward another request.
"You're going with you, too?" Bai Mushuang was very surprised.
"At the beginning, when our family was poor and didn't even have decent clothes, but I accompanied you to the town to sell along the streets, Aunt Bai didn't have a lot of nobles, so I forgot about it."
"Naturally, there isn't."
"If you haven't forgotten, what's the point of taking me with you? I can still help. "In fact, the main reason why Xiao Jingnian wants to follow the past is that he is worried that Bai Mushuang has no control over his spending, so don't look at which shop he has to buy and become penniless.
The family's money is not easy to come by, as the second son of the Xiao family, he must keep an eye on it, and he can't let Bai Mushuang, a loser, lose his family.
"Then you will go with me." Seeing that the little guy's eyes were extremely firm, Bai Mushuang also knew very well that it was useless to refuse Xiao Jingnian, not only was it useless, but this little guy would secretly follow up when the time came, rather than let him have to take the risk to follow him in the end, it would be convenient for her to agree to come down now.
At least after going to the city for a while, Xiao Jingnian is acting under her nose, if he is still alone, then he will have to go all over the world to find people when he is lost, so much trouble.
"You go and prepare, we'll go find Jiaojiao in a while and set off."
"When I go to prepare, you won't just slip away, will you?" Xiao Jingnian was a little worried and cast a distrustful gaze.
Bai Mushuang was seen by Xiao Jingnian's gaze, and she couldn't laugh or cry.
She said, "Am I such a dishonest woman in your heart?" ”
"Of course not."
"I said I would take you, then I will definitely take you, you don't have to worry all these years, when did I lie to you, right?"
Xiao Jingnian thought about it carefully, what Bai Mushuang said was not wrong, she really didn't lie to him.
Thinking of this, Xiao Jingnian went to pack his things with confidence.
After packing up her things, Bai Mushuang had already changed her clothes and stood at the door waiting.
"Are you all ready?" She looked at Xiao Jinghou and asked.
Xiao Jingnian nodded thoughtfully: "Ready." ”
It's not going far, and there's nothing to prepare for. Xiao Jingnian just brought the books that he usually pressed under the pillow with them.
You can bring no food or clothes, but you must bring books with you.
Not only did he bring books, but he also hoped that Bai Mushuang would take him to buy a few more poetry books after entering the city.
"Aunt Bai, I still have a request."
"Your doll is just a little bit old, why do you ask for so much, what else do you want?"
"Would I like to buy some books when I go into town?"
"Isn't there a box in the house, can you read those?"
Among the cubs in the family, Sui Sui is the least fond of reading, Xiao Shuyi and Zhaozhao are not bad, and the writing is very good. As for Xiao Jingnian, Bai Mushuang had always thought that Xiao Jingnian liked martial arts and was not interested in culture at all, but now she is ready to retract her original idea.
It's a good thing to like to study, don't the old sayings say that there is a golden house in the book, and there is Yan Ruyu in the book? As long as you love it every year, let alone buy one or two copies, even if you buy all the books back, it doesn't matter.
"I've read all the books in the box." Xiao Jingnian said to Bai Mushuang very proudly, seeing that he was full of confidence, Bai Mushuang's lips also hooked up a shallow smile, and suddenly stretched out his hand and touched his head.
