Chapter 417: The more you earn, the more you get
In the office of the newspaper office, the person brought by Fu Li carefully filled in the information, and waited until it was confirmed that it was correct before handing it to Hua Jingyun.
In order to show formality, Fu Qian specially wrote a letter of recommendation for the two, and elaborated on the family background and character of the two.
Qian Lei, the eldest son of the merchant Qian family, has the intention to cultivate his career in the family, but the two ends are very different from the results, and he is frank and upright.
Qiu Yu, whose father is a county magistrate, and whose parents are the daughters of merchants, are also not bad for money, and are flexible and accessible, but their qualifications in reading are mediocre, and the end of the scientific examination is also a visible outcome to the naked eye.
The two of them filled in the information and stood respectfully, Wen Mianmian is a face control, looking at people first and looking at their faces, they are very superficial, and they feel that the eyebrows of the two of them are clear and beautiful, and they are not bad.
Hua Jingyun said a few questions, nothing more than that you have to sign documents to join the newspaper, etc., and the two nodded respectfully, saying that they will respect the newspaper's decision.
The two of them really wanted to come, after all, the location of the newspaper was here, and they were a little trembling when they spoke excitedly.
Wen Mianmian raised her eyes and said: "I also have the Six Arts Training Hall under my name, and I want to hold a Six Arts Competition in Kyoto, the purpose is to promote the Six Arts Hall again and show my strength." ”
"I'll give you a night's work, and I'll be in this place tomorrow morning and tell me what you have in mind."
The two of them gave up their hands and hurried back to prepare.
Hua Jingyun still had something to do, Wen Mianmian finally felt that she was a little free, and followed Fu Qian to Fu's house with a smile, and learned that she was coming over Mrs. Fu and Fu Rou had been waiting for her for a long time, and when they saw her come to Huanxi, they were very affectionate.
"I wanted to come to see you a few days ago, and I thought that you were only tired when you came back from Jiangnan, I used to return to Beijing with your uncle from other places, and I was relieved at home for several days, plus there were too many trivial things, and I really relieved myself after a month of hard work."
"I really didn't want to move at all for the first two days I arrived, I was dizzy and swollen in the carriage, and my legs were swollen."
Wen Mianmian nodded again and again, agreeing, "Auntie, what you said is so right, I was still seasick, and I didn't want to live anymore when I was uncomfortable, but I was offended." ”
After sitting down, Wen Mianmian asked people to bring in the things brought back from Jiangnan, and Mrs. Fu hurriedly said: "Come here, do what you have to bring." ”
Wen Mianmian's eyebrows and eyes were crooked, "Most of them were brought back by my second cousin, and my aunt doesn't want my second cousin's filial piety?" ”
Mrs. Fu smiled happily, and when she heard that her son brought it, she couldn't wait to see it.
Silk and satin, jewelry, tea, pen and ink books, everything is something that can be used, and each of them is extremely rare.
Rarely stroking a horse with a faint luster, Mrs. Fu's face was full of joy, "How did the kid buy so many things back, this material is not cheap, right?" ”
Thinking of something, he hurriedly asked: "That kid didn't bring much money when he went out, where can he afford this, girl, did you add him money or he..."
Seeing that she wanted to be crooked, Wen Mianmian hurriedly said that the newspaper had held an Oiran selection competition in Jiangnan, "Jiangnan is rich and has made a lot of money, and the second cousin, as the leader, naturally has a lot of shares, and she bought them with her own money." ”
After all, if the newspaper wants to be generous, the more it earns, the more it will naturally share.
As he spoke, he pointed to the two boxes on the table, "I bought these two, one for my aunt and one for my cousin." ”
"My cousin's is this inkstone, and I don't know much about what Jiangnan people carved by hand."
As soon as she explained this, Mrs. Fu finally relieved herself, and thought that she would also send more money if she held an event at the Kyoto Newspaper Office earlier, so she didn't think about anything anymore and just cared about watching these things.
"It's really good, it's really exquisite, you helped choose these things, your second cousin's vision is that you can't choose this kind of if you have money."
Wen Mianmian sat on the side laughing happily, and when she turned her head, she saw that Mrs. Fu gave a red horse to Fu Qian, "Send it to the whole girl, let her make two clothes, and then give her this hairpin." ”
Wen Mianmian blinked, and Fu Rou whispered in her ear the news that Fu Qian had been married, "It's a girl from the whole family, the wedding date has been set, and it will be in the spring of the next year." ”
The whole family also belongs to the ancestors who have been wide, the current official residence of the whole adult is the fourth grade, Fu Youxian is from the third grade, and the in-law of the clerk Mian, it is still a little higher than the whole family, and the two families are very happy.
The whole girl is very liked by Mrs. Fu, and she can't forget her when she sees good things, Fu Qian used to rely on her, but this time she didn't agree, "This is the second brother who asked his cousin to come back thousands of miles away, it is the second brother's filial piety, mother, you can take it." ”
"It's not a New Year's holiday, and I often send things over when I don't have to."
Taking his brother's things to give to his future wife, he can't wipe this face.
What's more, the red material knew at a glance that it was given to his sister by the second brother, and it was impossible for him to reach out.
Mrs. Fu paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "Seeing that I am all happy and confused, I should take it away, turn around and make clothes to wear on my body." ”
The eldest son has always been her pride, and the youngest son, who was the most worried, is now living a prosperous life, and even the father and mother of the family are stained, and at this time, she is worried about the eldest son, after all, the eldest son has no future.
Seeing the girl sitting with a smile, I chuckled in my heart, and I couldn't hold back the smile on my face, the material and hairpin should have been given to my sister by the second boy.
Ouch, what a foolish thing she's done.
Wen Mianmian pretended not to see anything, got up and touched the abrasive, "These two goose-yellow materials and tender green are very suitable for cousin, I took a fancy to it at a glance at that time, cousin, come and take a look." ”
"It's a hot day, and this refreshing color looks so good."
Mrs. Fu hurriedly agreed, "It's good-looking, and the complexion of the lining is fairer." ”
Fu Rou also likes the material very much, how can there be a girl who doesn't love new clothes.
No one looked at the red material again, and the end result was that it was locked in the storeroom, and in the end it was not known who it fell on.
Afterwards, the two cousins went to the garden, and Fu Qian said that he had something to say to her mother, saying that he didn't like all the biases in his mother's heart, and he didn't want to affect the relationship between their brothers because he married a wife.
In the backyard, Wen Mianmian gave Fu Rou five silver tickets worth one hundred taels of exchange, "The second cousin asked me to bring it to you, saying that you should have some silver for a girl's family, don't bear it when you go out and see what you like, buy it yourself." ”
Fu Rou's eyes turned red instantly, and she couldn't stop smiling when she took the silver ticket, "Since the second brother went to the newspaper, he will give me some money every month, and my mother will also subsidize me every month, and I have a lot of savings now, is the second brother okay in Jiangnan?" ”
"Okay." Wen Mianmian sat down and told her about Jiangnan, "He is like a fish in water in Jiangnan now, but he will be back in a month, and there are still many things to do in Kyoto." ”
