Volume 1 The Families of the Exiled Civil Officials Chapter 7 The Families of the Exiled Civil Officials 6
Fortunately, another Chengwei surnamed Wei Xu came from the north and could speak some non-standard official dialect, so he was doing translation work on the side, and the communication between the two sides was finally smooth.
They said one by one and explained it seamlessly, and they came to the mansion when they saw it.
The local city guard glanced at the group of people, and said slowly.
"When we get to Nanhui, we still have to learn Nanhui dialect, otherwise it's inconvenient to do anything!"
Then he tilted his dark face and looked at his colleague with a ruffian, waiting for him to translate his words to others.
That Wei Chengwei picked up his fist and smashed it on his shoulder, shook his head with a smile, and still said this sentence to the Yunxu family.
The two families naturally know this truth, but in the end it takes a process.
Next, the two Yun and Xu families, who were substituted for the crime, wanted to see Lord Fu Yin, which was impossible.
They only went through the household registration process according to the usual process, and it was even more impossible to settle them in Fucheng.
Exile has to be like exile, although it has a good name, but the place chosen for them is not so friendly.
The heads of the two families were told that there were several resettlement sites to choose from, but when they saw the geography of the resettlement sites, they couldn't help but look downcast.
Among several options, Yun Siyuan chose to go to the other side of the Huijiang River, on both sides of the river, one side is a bustling metropolis, and the other side is inaccessible.
That land boundary is equivalent to an isolated island, and a very large area basically belongs to the Yun family.
The Huijiang River and the sea sandwich it into a triangular peninsula, and the combination of the river and the sea forms a large tidal flat, and behind the peninsula are rolling mountains and forests.
Such a good place with abundant products and superior environment can only be abandoned there because of inconvenient transportation, but the biggest reason is that the population is too small.
Yun Siyuan just took a fancy to the isolation over there, and the disheartened Yun Siyuan chose this boundary as soon as his mind was hot, and he wanted to be a reclusive scholar, but unfortunately he didn't take into account the practical problems at all.
The Xu family chose a small mountain village in a relatively remote area, thinking of using the remaining silver taels to buy a hundred and ten acres of land and build a big house, and the family settled in Nanhui Mansion.
After completing the formalities, Li Chengwei took the Yun family just now, and Wei Chengwei accompanied the Xu family to see where their future homes were.
The group came to the gate of the government and parted ways temporarily.
"Master Yun, in fact, I have been to that place, if it is not separated by a river, it is really a good place, you will know it when you go to see it."
Li Chengwei talked to the men of the Yun family as he walked, and he also knew that the family couldn't understand the local dialect, so he spoke in the official dialect mixed with the local vernacular as if he was envious and relieved.
Although Yun Siyuan and the others struggled to listen, everyone still communicated smoothly.
Yun Caijun let go of his divine sense and took in the entire Nanhui Mansion, of course, he also saw the small peninsula on the other side of the Hui River, with mountains and rivers, flat land, tidal flats, reefs and sandy beaches, rich in vegetation and variety, like a small world with complete ecology.
Yun Caijun is quite satisfied with this small peninsula, although it is not as good as his own small side peak, but it can also become a paradise with good planning.
The family is old and young, and the money is not very rich, of course, it is impossible to go to the desert island where there is nothing right away.
Li Chengwei, the head snake, is very conscientious, he took the Yun family to find a vacant farm yard in the fishing village opposite the small peninsula and rented it, and temporarily settled the Yun family.
Then they made an appointment and promised to help them find a boat to the small peninsula, and take them to the other side of the river early tomorrow morning to see the situation.
Yun Siyuan is very grateful.
In such an unfamiliar place, it is nice to have a local with a familiar environment.
It's just that after they rented the small courtyard, Yun Siyuan finally came to his senses.
The idea of being a hermit scholar is romantic, but to build a house across the river, where will the last bit of money in the family be enough.
If you were more rational at that time and choose a mountain village like the Xu family, the fishing village would be much better than the current situation.
Now that I'm bringing the family into the ditch again?
Tomorrow I have to let people help with errands, I can't expect people to fill in the money, Yun Siyuan asked his wife to take some silver taels and handed them to Li Chengwei, and after some kind words with him, he finally set tomorrow's itinerary.
Sending people to the door to see Li Chengwei leave, he sighed deeply, and was about to close the door of the courtyard.
Seeing this, Yun Yingrui hurriedly took over.
"Dad, I'll go with my second brother tomorrow, and you can rest at home. I'm just going to see what's going on over there first, and I'll just draw a map of that side when I get back. ”
Yun Yingrui and his father stood by the courtyard gate and talked about their plans for tomorrow.
"Well, you go with Bo'er...... It's okay," before he finished speaking, Yun Caijun walked across the courtyard and came to them.
"Dad, big brother, I'll go with you tomorrow." The tone is flat, but there is no room for comment.
The father and son turned their heads to look at Yun Caijun, only to see that the petite girl had a calm gaze and a faint expression, and she couldn't say anything if she refused, and she always felt that even if she refused, she would find a way to keep up.
Anyway, they all saw Jun'er's performance along the way, and it would be too inappropriate to go to Nanban and still have a set of ladies in the capital.
"Okay, Jun'er will change into your Yingce's clothes tomorrow and go along."
Yun Yingce is Yun Siyuan's concubine, a 10-year-old boy is tall and thin, and he is almost the same as 13-year-old Yun Caijun, and his clothes are just right.
Yun Caijun nodded in response, and this matter can be regarded as settled. I saluted with the two of them and went to clean up the house with the big guys.
The Yun family, both young and old, has already divided their labor, and the people inside and outside the house are busy cleaning up the house. It's almost noon, and it's time to start making lunch.
Finding such a yard in such a short period of time is something that a snake like Li Chengwei can do.
The small farmhouse courtyard house is arranged in an L-shape and divided into the front yard and the back yard, the house sits north and faces south, the hall house, the stove room, and five rooms, as for the thatched house, it is in the corner of the backyard, the most satisfying thing for the Yun family is that a well is dug next to the stove house, so that the water at home is indeed much more convenient.
Despite the tight housing situation, a separate study room was set up, which is also understandably the insistence of the literati.
There were four rooms left, one room for the old lady and the Liu family, one room for Yun Siyuan and the mica twins, and one room for the three brothers, Yun Caijun was arranged alone in the small room in the west, barely settled.
Yun Caijun returned to the room assigned to her with a basin of water.
The room is not large, all the furniture is only a bed and a wooden box, which are left by the previous owner.
She wanted to make a trick to clean the dust, but unfortunately she hadn't cultivated a trace of spiritual power so far, so she could only scrub and scrub the room with a wet rag, making sure to keep the room clean and tidy, and put the few personal belongings in place.
Those things were nothing more than a few changes of clothes, a few more spiritual herbs collected during the exile, and a simple medicine powder that she had concocted.
She didn't know how much those medicinal herbs were worth, but the more spiritual things were, the more valuable they were, this is the law, and they are universal in that world.
After more than two months of hearing and seeing, the ancestor has already understood the importance of money.
There's not much work, and it's done in a while, so just go to the kitchen and see if there's anything we can do to help.
"Jun'er, you go to accompany your grandmother and Xuanxuan and Mengmeng, don't let your grandmother get tired. Here Aunt Liu and I will be fine. ”
Mica casually instructed Yun Caijun.
Yun Caijun answered and went out, and when Yun Yingce met him, he simply asked him to find a dress for himself, Yun Yingce looked at her suspiciously but didn't ask why, he just agreed.
"Eldest sister, I'll go get it." Then he turned and went back to his house.
This yard has not been inhabited for nearly half a year, and the open space in the front and back yards is full of weeds, and Mrs. Yun and the twins are under the big trees in the front yard. This place has just been cleaned up by the two Yun Yingrui brothers, and the two are still hoeing weeds.
Fortunately, they all carry insect repellent sachets, otherwise there are many snakes, insects, rats and ants in this overgrown place, and mosquitoes alone can carry people away.
At this hour, the weeds hoeed off were piled together, and the two brothers carefully left the flowers and trees planted by the original owner, and slightly trimmed the small yard was much cleaner and tidy, but the ground was bare mud, if it could be paved with a stone road and a flower pond, it would be much more beautiful.
The old lady Yun sat on the stone bench, and she was not afraid of giving the old lady a cold day in this hot day.
Yun Caijun felt the need to do some more protection, she went back to her house and took the enhanced version of the insect repellent powder, and sprinkled it in front of the house and behind the house, nodding with satisfaction. Use it first, and then improve it in a few days to make balls, so you don't have to worry about it.
Yun Yingce also came to Yun Caijun with his own clothes at this time, and when he took it, he knew that this should be his best set of clothes.
Yun Caijun raised his eyebrows at the awkward boy who ran away quickly, this younger brother hadn't said a few words except to say hello to himself so far.
After nearly four months of traveling, everyone finally had a comfortable meal, finally washed away the dust and exhaustion, and finally had a house, a bed and a place to live.
It was not yet dark, and the family, no matter how big or small, returned to their rooms, and they were all snoring, and they had to sleep in the dark.
Only Yun Caijun was still in good spirits, returned to the middle of the room and sat on the bed, letting go of his divine sense to inspect this village called Gushan Village.
There are endless small hills next to the village, and the bamboo on the nearby hillside is very lush, which is probably the common property of the village.
The use rate of these bamboos in this village is very high, bamboo baskets, bamboo baskets, bamboo tables and chairs, all kinds of labor tools, daily necessities are bamboo products, there are a few that backing the mountain even the bamboo knot to connect the long water pipe to the mountain spring as domestic water, it is really the role of bamboo to the extreme.
The distribution of the entire village was roughly counted with a sweep of divine sense, Yun Caijun was not a voyeur, and people would not go to look at it blindly.
