Chapter 205: Separation
A few days later, Geng Shuhuai packed his bags and went to Ning Duwei's camp outside the city.
"Second brother, I inquired, the Wan family sisters and brothers no longer live in the inn now, they live in a second-entry house in Guixiang Hutong."
Guixiang Hutong is inhabited by some small rich families, although the second house is not big, but in Ningdu City, also need a lot of money, according to Geng Shuhuai said before about the situation of the Wanjia sisters and brothers in the Qiying Village, since the death of the old village owner, Qiying Village not only did not do "business" again, but was also robbed by peers, so they are not rich, it can be said that they are very poor.
So they shouldn't be able to afford a two-entry house in Guixiang Hutong.
So where did the house come from?
Geng Xingshuang's first reaction was the housekeeper Wu who followed the Wan family sisters and brothers on the day of the martial arts exam.
Geng Shuhuai didn't know about this yet.
Geng Shuhuai glanced at his sister who wanted to speak and stopped, and asked, "Guixiang Hutong, two into the house, is there anything else?"
Geng Xingshuang nodded, "Yes, on the day of the martial arts, Miss Wan and Wan Gongzi were accompanied by two people, one was a middle-aged man, and the other was a young girl, I heard Wan Gongzi call the middle-aged man Steward Wu, and then asked Zhujian to inquire, that Steward Wu is the housekeeper of the second room of the Dingguo Mansion, he was instructed by Wu Qiyao, the third son of the Dingguo Mansion, to serve the Wanjia sisters and brothers, and the young girl was sent by the third prince of Wu to serve the Wan girl. ”
Geng Xingshuang said this and glanced at her second brother.
Geng Shuhuai didn't seem very surprised when he heard this, he nodded, "Okay, I know." ”
Geng Xingshuang was a little worried, "Second brother, I heard that Wan Gongzi was also admitted to the martial arts, he should also go to the camp outside the city, you ...... Don't be impulsive. ”
Geng Shuhuai stretched out his big hand and patted Geng Xingshuang's head, "Little housekeeper, don't worry, I won't be stupid, Wan Xiao...... It's an old man, as for Miss Wan, it's just the sister of the old man. ”
Geng Xingshuang heard him say this, and was slightly relieved.
Not long after Geng Shuhuai went to the camp outside the city, the new science and technology jinshi in the fifteenth year of Sheng Ning began to confer officials in an orderly manner.
Of course, it starts from the top three of the first class.
According to the original statement, the first three entered the Hanlin Academy, the champion was awarded the six-grade compilation, the list of the eyes of the flower was awarded the seven-grade editing, and the Hanlin Academy attendants took turns to go to the front of the palace, for the emperor to lecture on the scriptures and history, for the princes to lecture and teach, but when the official documents really came down, things have changed slightly.
The champion has not changed, it is still written by the Hanlin Academy from the sixth grade, and Tanhua has not changed, and it is the seventh grade of the Hanlin Academy, and the list that should have been awarded the same position at the same time as Tanhua was released, and another position of the Hanlin Academy was given to Jian Chao.
"Is this what Jian Ge Lao did?"
Geng Xingshuang asked curiously.
Yang Tianmo said: "The Yan family has some relatives with the Jian family, Yan Hao has been living in Jian's Mansion during the time when he was in Ningdu to take the exam, and Yan Hao's father is the head of a county in the south.
In this case, there is no need for Jian Ge Lao to speak, as long as the rest of the Jian family gives some hints, or someone writes a letter to Yan Zhubo, Yan Hao will take the initiative to give up the quota of the Hanlin Academy, and only say that he wants to go out earlier, do some practical things, and have more experience, and the officials will not get stuck in this kind of thing. ”
Geng Xingshuang continued: "Then there is no need to name names, according to the principle of postponement, there is still one place left for the compilation of the Hanlin Academy, and it will naturally fall to Jian Chao, who is in fourth place."
"Clever!" Yang Tianmo praised.
Geng Shuhuai went to the camp outside the city and couldn't go home for three months, Yang Tianmo's appointment documents also came down, and he began to be on duty in the Hanlin Academy, and the two people who came back from Pingcheng gradually had their own tracks.
I don't know how Yang Shaojing and his wife did it, after Yang Shaojing returned to Ningdu, when he had not yet been promoted, the Yang Mansion quietly separated.
Not only the second room of the Yang family was divided, but the third room of the Yang family was also divided, the old house was given to the big house, and Mrs. Yang lived in the old house of the Yang family with the big house, and the second and third rooms came to the door on the fifteenth day of the new year to ask for peace.
When the people in Bofu heard about this, the Yang family had already separated.
For this reason, Geng Xingshuang also asked Yang Tianmo specifically.
"They were going to come to your door to apologize, but I stopped them."
"You're right, I don't want to see them, I don't want to pretend that things are over, it's okay, after all, I almost fell into the water, it's not an exaggeration to say that I almost lost my life, but if I cling to this matter, others will think that I have to be unforgiving, so don't come, anyway, since you are separated, the number of times you will meet in the future is limited, so it's best for everyone to be strangers."
Geng Xingshuang said very bluntly, and when he said this, he kept looking at Yang Tianmo.
Yang Tianmo smiled, "Well, we have a heart, that's what I think, so I don't let them come, but since they dare to harm people, they have to pay the price." ”
"Huh? At what cost? Separation? ”
"What is the price of separation, losing money." Yang Tianmo said, taking a small box from Dewang.
"Here's part of the cost." He handed the box to Geng Xingshuang.
Geng Xingshuang took the box with some curiosity, opened it, and found that there was a stack of silver tickets inside.
She counted, "One thousand taels?" ”
Yang Tianmo nodded, "It's not much." ”
Geng Xingshuang shook her head, "I'm not too little, I'm just curious about how Uncle Yang and Aunt Feng Wei got this silver from Third Master Yang and Third Lady." ”
"In this matter, my father didn't play a role, he just said that when we wanted to split up, he said to the outside world that he seemed to have offended a big man in Peng County this time, so he would be robbed and killed on the way back, the emperor summoned him as soon as he returned to Ningdu City, it was to ask him what he did in Peng County, as for after that, his official functions can not be kept, whether he will be questioned, it is not yet known, so I don't know if it will affect the family."
Yang Shaojing's words were ambiguous, leaving room for them, but in fact, he was giving opportunities to the big house and the third room.
However, the Yang family's big room and third room thought that the second room was leaving room for themselves, and they were worried that once the holy decree of condemnation came down, the second room would be blamed by the big room and the third room for not explaining it in advance, so they mentioned it so vaguely now.
"So that's how the family is divided?" Geng Xingshuang stroked his palm, "Uncle Yang is very wise. ”
"You compliment......"
"What's wrong?"
Geng Xingshuang glared at him, as if he dared to say something bad, and she was going to be angry.
"It's formal." Yang Tianmo slowly spit out three words.
Geng Xingshuang laughed out loud and raised his chin, "Of course, Uncle Yang is an elder, so he naturally has to be formal." ”
Then he asked, "Then where did these apologies come from?" It's not going to be your share of the property, is it? ”
If this were the case, Geng Xingshuang felt that it would be hot to take the thousand taels of silver.
Yang Tianmo shook his head, "Naturally not, it is indeed the third room that took the initiative to take out the apology." ”
Then, Yang Tianmo said why Sanfang took the initiative to take out this thousand taels of silver.
Geng Xingshuang listened and slowly widened his eyes.
