Chapter 45: Her Hands Are Not Clean

Wake up early in the morning.

Wen Yin soaked her hands in the basin of water.

Bath beans were used again.

Rub repeatedly until the fair and delicate skin is red.

The girl next to her looked at it and felt strange, so she said: "Miss, this hand can't be rubbed anymore, it's broken again, Madame is distressed when she sees it." ”

Wen Yin didn't want to.

But I can't help but think of last night's images.

Her hands weren't clean.

"Bring me some more plant ashes, as well as pig pancreas and soaphorns."

The little girl was stunned, but she did it.

waited until Wen Yin's hands were eager to shed a layer of skin, and she gave up.

After washing her hands and applying a few layers of precious frankincense, Wen Yin felt a little more comfortable.

In the morning, she didn't have breakfast, and she washed her hands.

When I reappeared in front of everyone, it was lunchtime.

Ye Xiudi is still there, and Wen Chengming is busy with the affairs of the DPRK and China and has not yet returned.

The rest of the staff was still arranged for yesterday's dinner.

It's just that the dishes and drinks have changed their style.

Yesterday I ate a famous dish in Beijing, but today I changed the Jiangnan flavor.

The two meals were compared, and each had its own taste.

I played too crazy yesterday, and at lunch today, the Ye family was obviously much quieter.

Of course, there is also a reason for tomorrow's Dragon Boat Festival.

The big guys want to rest better and try to get a good score tomorrow.

Ye Liangyang explained the situation in the Jiangnan team in this dragon boat competition.

The team of 23 people, two alternates, one helmsman, one gong player, one drummer, and eighteen rowers present.

Among the eighteen rowers, there are more than ten in the Ye family.

The other eight people are from the children of various families in the south of the Yangtze River, and a few are the sons of the poor family.

is the son of another poor family, and he almost relied on a certain family to come to Beijing.

"It is said that it is a race for the whole people to mobilize, but in fact, ordinary people cannot participate in it just because of the hard condition of providing dragon boats themselves."

Ye Liangyang said with a little emotion.

Just like the last polo game.

Ordinary people don't have horses in their homes, let alone polo equipment, let alone the polo field when they played yesterday.

In today's world, there is a chasm between the poor and the rich.

He is a Jiangnan county official, and he understands the people's sufferings too well, but his ability is limited, and the places where he can reach out are limited.

"Brother-in-law, what is the status of the two teams in Beijing?"

Song Chengyu said frankly: "There are two teams in Beijing, one of which is composed of the children of the family and the Chinese officials of the dynasty, and the other team is an elite soldier directly transferred from the army by our Song family. ”

The children of the family and the Chinese officials of the dynasty refer to the sons of high-ranking officials such as Zhao Shicai, Yu Xianwei, and Wei Yuhe, imperial relatives such as Xuanyuan Yulong, and young civil officials such as Nalan Rongjin.

The elite soldiers transferred from the army of the Song family, except for the sons of the Song family, are all outstanding soldiers from poor families, and each of them has killed the enemy on the battlefield and made meritorious contributions.

Ye Liangyang asked Song Chengyu what he thought of this competition.

Song Chengyu replied: "I don't know if I can win!" ”

Hearing this, Ye Liangye couldn't help but sneer: "This is not a nonsense. ”

Ye Liangxing also smiled and said: "We don't know if we can win, hahaha......"

But Song Chengyu didn't smile, his expression was serious.

Ye Liangyang also took a deep breath.

Yang Meitian listened carefully, but she understood another meaning.

Wen Yin glanced at Song Chengyu beside him, waiting for him to continue speaking.

What Song Chengyu means is that in this game, the Song army will definitely win if they want to win.

In terms of configuration alone, they are elite soldiers and strong generals in this team.

The sweat, blood and tears shed on the army's martial arts training ground will definitely not be shed in vain.

Compared with those children of the family, high-ranking officials and nobles, the soldiers of the army have no reason to lose.

But the question before Song Chengyu is: How many people will expect the Song army to win?

Song Chengyu also said just now that this team is full of poor soldiers with no identity and no background who come in with their strength.

Compared with the wealthy merchant families in Jiangnan, compared to the powerful in Beijing, they are simply not worth mentioning.

If they win, they will win, and whoever mentions this dragon boat race, all the glory may only belong to the Song family and the Song family, and not many people will know the names of the generals who participated in the competition.

But if those dignitaries win, it will add an extra layer of aura to a group of nobles.

is like the polo team of Nalan Rongjin yesterday, and this polo championship alone is enough to make them famous among the nobles of the capital.

After Ye Liangye understood what Song Chengyu really meant, there was a hint of ridicule on his face: "Brother-in-law is overconfident." ”

"A stick of incense."

"You're saying you paddled across the canal and it only took you a stick of incense to finish?" Ye Liangxing asked rhetorically.

Ye Liangye chuckled again: "We also rowed across the canal the day before yesterday, and it wasn't even a stick of incense." ”

Song Chengyu's face remained unchanged, and he slowly removed the wine glass in his hand from his lips and placed it on the table.

As the wine glass knocked on the table, he raised his eyes and looked at the Ye family: "The canal has not been crossed, but we have crossed the Heihe." ”

Black River?

When Ye Liangye heard this, his face sank.

Ye Liangxing was a little confused: "What Heihe?" What is the Black River, is it longer and wider than a canal? ”

Ye Liangyang explained: "Heihe is located on the border, is a river between our dynasty and Goryeo no one to govern, the river underground perennial black reef and undercurrent, perennial gray-black, so named Heihe, but all the boats and fishermen who go into the water, most of them have no return, not only that, the length of the Heihe River is more than double the length of the canal." ”

Ye Liangye clenched his palms slightly.

Ye Liangxing directly exclaimed: "Wow, it's so powerful, we only cross the canal with one stick of incense, wouldn't it take at least two sticks of incense to cross the Heihe...... In that case, Song Jiajun has won. ”

Ye Liangxing also reacted at this time.

The others who were at a loss at the beginning have also come back to their senses now.

As long as Song Jiajun wants to win, there will be no suspense in tomorrow's dragon boat race.

But for Song Jiajun, winning is not necessarily a good thing.

Maybe you want to offend a vote.

Ye Xiudi smiled lightly: "So, if the game is not played, it doesn't mean much at all, it's just a title that the people above play around, otherwise you see if a few of you participated in the last polo match yesterday, and it was the turn of Nalan Rongjin and Xuanyuan Yulong to take the first place, but they were all political positions......

Ye Xiudi said it clearly and clearly.

Wen Yin felt slightly lost.

Originally, she thought that the Song family's dragon boat defeat in her previous life was because she had a discord with Song Chengyu, but the night before the game, she had a big quarrel with Song Chengyu, which caused him to play abnormally the next day and miss the first place, and let Nalan Rongjin's team win.

Now that I see who is the leader of this event, it has already been placed.

Those children of the capital, how could they let go of the opportunity to show themselves in front of the saints.

If it weren't for Song Chengyu's words, she would still have expectations for tomorrow's Dragon Boat Festival, and now she won't think about it anymore.
