As soon as he returned home, Fan Niangzi directly gave her son a small silver ingot of five taels, which was his own money, although it was not much, but Tang Minglu was still very happy, after all, it was the first time he had earned money!

But he doesn't plan to carve anymore, after all, the New Year is coming soon, and the family doesn't make money with this now, so in the remaining days, just carve some fun for the family.

And Shen Linquan came back and hurriedly interrogated the old man.

At first glance, when he heard that someone had come to Tang's house, he was startled, and his heart showed that Emperor Cheng was not so unreliable, Mi Bao's matter was so important, he couldn't even hide it for a while?

The result is that he came to Shangguan Xingji, so it is reasonable.

According to the time, if the concubine is really worried about this brother, then she should also send someone here, not necessarily to find anything, the main thing is that the Zhuangzi was bought by Fan Weiquan, and she will find this side as soon as she looks for it.

This old man's name is Zhao Shun, and he is an old servant of the Yun family, that is to say, he is the companion of the original wife of the Shangguan family.

At that time, Shangguan Yunmo sent someone to send Shangguan Yunjin into the capital, and it was the two of them who took care of chores all the way, and later Shangguan Yunjin entered the palace, and he stayed at Shangguan Yunjin's aunt's house.

Later, although the Shangguan family also entered the capital, Shangguan Yunjin's relationship with them has always been faint, and this time to investigate Shangguan Xingji's matter, Shangguan Yunjin also asked his aunt for help, and then her aunt sent him.

He actually came all the way, but he was older, the carriage was slower after all, and after arriving, he first found the female ghost village, and then inquired about coming here, originally just wanted to find Fan Weiquan to ask, but he didn't expect that as soon as he came, he saw Shangguan Xingji and Mi Bao going out, and when he saw that face, the wine vortex, he recognized it, and then he stayed here, and asked the villagers again.

Of course, Zhao Shun didn't mention Shu Concubine directly, this was just Shen Linquan's own guess from his words.

Zhao Shun has been in the capital for many years, although he doesn't know Shen Linquan, he has eyes, and when he sees them, he is not an ordinary person, and he hurriedly explained: "The old slave has no malice, he just wants to take the little master home...... When the old slave saw the little master's face, it was exactly the same as the young master, and the old slave couldn't help it. ”

He couldn't stop wiping away tears.

He said that Shangguan Yunmo's sister and brother look very similar, not only when they were children, but also when they grow up, they are both baby-faced, big-eyed, big, dark and bright, and surprisingly beautiful, so they pretend to be boys and girls when they are young, and many people know each other, but Shangguan Yunjin has a wine vortex, and Shangguan Yunmo does not have a wine vortex, so to speak, Shangguan Xingji is more like an aunt.

Shen Linquan said: "I can arrange for you to meet and talk, but if you want to take him away, you must not, let alone mention this matter to him." As for why, you'll know when you see it. ”

So the next day, as soon as Shangguan Xingji and Mi Bao came over, Shen Linquan brought Shangguan Xingzhen out and said to him: "Xingzhen, this old man is my friend, you help me accompany him for a while, and then I will ask someone to cook something delicious for you." ”

Shangguan Xing said: "Idiom." ”

"Cheng," Shen Linquan said with a smile: "I will also play with you to guess the idiom." ”

Shangguan Xingji stood still, and Zhao Shun also saw some clues, so he tried to talk to him: "What's your name?" ”

Shangguan Xingji is the best at answering this question, and he replied in a straight voice: "Shangguan Xingji." ”

"How old are you?"

"I don't know."

"Who's your daddy?"

"Mipo."

Zhao Shun was stunned: "Who is Mi Bao?" ”

Shangguan Xing said, "Daddy." He patiently emphasized, "Mi Bao, Daddy." ”

Zhao Shun was stunned for a long time before he asked again: "Then, who is your mother?" ”

Shangguan Xing paused for a moment and said hesitantly: "Brother." ”

Zhao Shun misunderstood, thinking that he didn't understand this concept, so he talked nonsense, his eyes turned red, and he asked again: "Is Xing Zhen good here?" ”

Without hesitation, he said, "Okay." ”

Zhao Shun asked, "Where is it good?" ”

"Mi Bao is good," Shangguan Xing nodded over one by one: "Grandpa is good, my mother is good, my eldest brother is good, my father is good, Lin Quan is good, my brother is good, and everyone else is good." ”

From his words, you can hear the order of his heart.

Shen Linquan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

Zhao Shun asked babbled questions, Shangguan Xingyu answered all questions, innocent, but it was obviously not a normal response for seven or eight-year-old children.

Shen Linquan looked at it, and Zhao Shun must have counted it in his heart, so he stepped forward and separated, and said warmly: "Xing Zhen will go back first, and I will get you something delicious in a while." ”

Shangguan Xing responded, turned around and left.

Zhao Shun looked at his back with blank eyes.

Shen Linquan said: "Now you know? To tell you the truth, when we first met him, it was even more serious than that. ”

He told him about the situation at that time, including what happened after returning to the villa, and said: "It's much better now, although this family is a farmer, they are not short of food and clothing, and they are comfortable and intimate with the stars, just like a real family, growing up in this environment is better than returning to the capital, after all, it is only my aunt's house, as for my grandfather's house, I don't say that you understand the situation; Second, there was someone in their family who had the imperial examination, and they would naturally go to the capital when the time came, and if they wanted to meet, they would meet each other on a day, and they would not be in a hurry. ”

Zhao Shun didn't say a word.

Of course, he still wants to take people back, otherwise he will not be able to confess.

But what he scruples about is that because Emperor Ming Cheng has a strong style, although the backer of the palace concubine is popular, it can't be easily revealed, but if she is poked out, it will be over.

Moreover, the Shangguan family and the Yun family, after all, are just the family of merchants, and the concubine Niangniang is extremely low-key and cautious, and she will confess when she comes, this letter can be handed to her so easily, and there must be people with hands and eyes in the middle, and their family has a shallow foundation, so you must be cautious when you come to check this time, and don't offend people.

So Zhao Shun hesitated again and again, and said, "The old slave dared to ask......

Before he finished his words, Shen Linquan said directly: "Yes," he glanced at him and said lightly: "The letter handed to the concubine was handed over by me." ”

Zhao Shun gave a deep salute and didn't dare to say anything.

So that night, Shen Linquan sent the shadow guard to send him back to the capital, mainly to tell him not to talk nonsense, and not to say what he shouldn't say.

As soon as this person came and went, Mi Bao and Shangguan Xingyu didn't know about it.

It's a little year in two days.

Nowadays, unlike the later generations, there are twenty-three years old, there are twenty-four years, and there are even many people on the water who are twenty-five.

Now the New Year is the twenty-fourth day.

Because Tang Mingsong only got married, and for him to get married, the house has just been thoroughly repaired and cleaned, so there is no need to clean it up a year ago, and everyone is very idle.

The school was on holiday, Shen Zhen also gave Tang Mingqi a holiday, and even the embroidery work in the village was slow, and Fan Weiquan also gave a holiday to the people who opened up the wasteland and returned to Taoyuan Village.

In short, everyone has entered an atmosphere of a busy year, even if there is no work, they have to be busy.

Fan Weiquan's eldest son, Fan Duobao, has been learning martial arts in Changshan, from this side, the fast horse has to walk for two days, Fan Weiquan is ready to wait for the new year, immediately set off to see his son, send him some silver money and clothes, and then accompany his son for a day or two and then rush back, and it will be the root of the year.

~Ding Dong~ Look here↓

Knowledge: The small year is divided into north and south, which is a phenomenon that only existed after the Qing Dynasty. It is said that it began with Yongzhengye, because the ceremony of sacrificing to the sky was held on the twenty-third day of the lunar month, in order to save money, the matter of worshipping the king of the stove was done together, and then all parties followed suit. Because the north has been in the political center for a long time, it has also been brought to the twenty-third year, while the south is relatively far away from the political center, so it still lives according to the twenty-fourth. The author is a northerner, and he is used to spending a small year at twenty-three, but because the background is like Ming, he still presses twenty-four.

By the way, ask for a ticket, ask to light up the five little stars, the author pestered the editor for a long time, and then started to write this short warm and healing article in the parents, does no one really like to watch this hanging? Alas!
