Both of them grew up in the capital, and what they heard in their ears and saw in their eyes was almost the same.

There are many women who have been divorced, and it is clear that they are not wrong, but the man suddenly changed his mind and directly withdrew from his marriage, and went back and forth, but in the end he became the woman's no.

Su Yao and Mu Ru'an sighed for a while, and Mu Ru'an saw Xiao Yingqing coming, and picked up the chopsticks with a quick movement in his hand.

"By the way, Ah Yao, I will leave for Yangzhou the day after tomorrow, there is a big business, and the owner on the other side wants me to talk about it by name."

"Do you want to come with me?"

"Yangzhou?"

Su Yao recalled that she had traveled a lot of places from Jiangzhou downwards, but Yangzhou had never been there.

Moreover, Yangzhou ......

Su Yao suddenly thought of someone, "Ru'an, do you still remember Master Taifu?" ”

Mu Ruan didn't raise his head: "Naturally, I remember that Shi Ruqing's master Taifu, that young emperor's Taifu, the prince of the country supervised the sacrificial wine, and taught the sage and Wei Jingji, didn't you hear that it was only a few years ago that Zhishi was born." ”

After speaking, she also smiled as if she remembered something: "By the way, if I remember correctly, Master Taifu is your enlightenment teacher?" ”

"Exactly." Su Yao subconsciously smiled and said: "He taught me a lot in the past, and he has benefited a lot so far, and he treats me very well. ”

Mu Ruan said: "Wouldn't that be good, you go with me, and you can also visit his old man's house by the way, but I can't show up, so you can only go alone." ”

"It doesn't matter."

While they were talking, Xiao Yingqing had already walked to Mu Ru'an's side, and when he heard the words, he said, "I'll go too." ”

"I haven't been to Yangzhou for many years."

Mu Ruan did not hesitate, and said briskly: "Okay! Then let's go together, you pack your luggage today, and we'll leave the day after tomorrow. ”

Su Yao thought of Mo Xianjia, who had just left, and said thoughtfully: "Maybe bring more people?" ”

Mo Xianjia originally came to Jiangnan to play, and now that they are going to Yangzhou together, he should also go?

Mu Ru'an almost forgot Mo Xianjia, and after she mentioned it, she called Hong'er without saying a word, urging:

"Hong'er, you go to Mo Xianjia's courtyard and ask, we are going to Yangzhou, do you want to go to him or not?"

It's still light now, Mo Xianjia has just returned to the room, and no matter how fast he is, he shouldn't have fallen asleep.

Hong'er was instructed and went to Mo Xianjia's yard.

After a while, before the dinner of several people was finished, Hong'er brought the news:

"Mr. Mo said he might not be able to go."

When Su Yao and Mu Ruan heard this, their faces showed surprise.

Su Yao asked, "Why?" ”

Hong'er said: "Mr. Mo didn't explain the reason, only said that he would come to explain to Miss Su tomorrow after picking up someone." ”

The person Mo Xianjia wanted to pick up said that he was from Beijing.

However, there are not many officials in the capital who can let him go to greet him in person.

Su Miao thought about this, and after a little thought in his heart, he had a number.

Therefore, on the second day, when Mo Xianjia came to explain to her, she also responded quickly.

"Ah Yao, the sage has passed on the message, there have been bandits in Yanzhou recently, the officials are powerless, and there is a lack of a master general to suppress the bandits, because I and the Mo family army are close to Yanzhou, the sage handed over this matter to me, I am afraid it will take one or twenty days of work, this Yangzhou, I can't accompany you."

Su Yao heard his words very familiarly, and thought of her father and brother without warning.

In the past, wherever she wanted to go, her father and brothers would always be sent to her in various ways, and she would be entangled in war.

She couldn't figure it out before, but now she can understand: "You can go with peace of mind, the matter of suppressing bandits is crucial, and it is the same when you go to Yangzhou." ”

But if you go to Yangzhou again, you may not necessarily go with you.

Mo Xianjia added in a low heart, but this is his fate to be born in Jiangmen, this life is like this, the king's destiny is everything.

Even if he is resting, he needs to be ready to leave at any time.

Mo Xianjia began to regret entering the barracks for the first time.

Although his father had sent him to the barracks before, he had received instructions from the crown prince.

But he also volunteered.

If he had not volunteered, his mother would not have allowed his father to throw him into the famous pile of dead.

For a long time, he was active and enthusiastic before he went to war, and to this day-

He had to refuse the offer of the girl he liked.

He was full of enthusiasm, as if he was cold, and he didn't have much energy when he looked at it, "If you have a chance in the future, I will accompany you to Yangzhou again." ”

Su Yao nodded.

That night, Mo Xianjia set off and rode to Yanzhou.

After two days of repairs, Su Yao and Mu Ruan also boarded the ship bound for Yangzhou.

There are two states between Wuzhou and Yangzhou, which are not too far away. The night boat arrived at the place.

The foothold is Xing'an Inn, which is located in the most prosperous street in Yangzhou.

Xiao Er diligently opened a Tianzi room for them, and the group rested here first.

As soon as Su Yao arrived at the place, he instructed the guards to inquire about the residence of the master and the master.

Shi Taifu was extremely famous in Yangzhou before, and after returning to his hometown, it was not difficult to know where he lived.

Because it was dusk, Su Yao and the others packed up and went out to the restaurant together.

The capital of the capital is rich and charming, but Yangzhou is not bad.

Along the way, the night market at night is even more lively than the curfew lifted during the New Year's festival in Beijing.

At the bottom of the inn, craftsmen made an arched bridge.

Below is a Huadai River that runs through Yangzhou.

The reflection of the red lantern falls on the river, and the girl sitting on the bow of the boat is brushed into a blur with her slender jade fingers.

There are shops everywhere on the street, the lanterns are shining, the brocade cars and white horses are staggered, and the Zhu Column is several feet away, and there is no end in sight.

Su Yao was really dazzled.

In the past, it was often said that the capital was at the foot of the Son of Heaven, and that the most beautiful things in the world were gathered in the capital.

She believed it, too.

However, in the past three years, she has traveled to many places by herself, and she feels that what she wanted at that time was just like sitting in a well and watching the sky.

Mu Ru'an was very out of the family in the early days, and she had been in business for a few years, and she was more and more afraid of life at this time.

Su Yao was still standing on the side of the street, looking everywhere at the fresh tightness, and she had already mingled with the locals of Yangzhou.

For the convenience of travel, Mu Ruan is dressed as a man, and if nothing else, he tries to act conveniently.

She stepped on the stool, and she stood tallest in the crowd, and laughed heartily.

The people gathered with her were drinking and fighting with her, and the drunken words were so fragrant that they were not lively.

Xiao Yingqing stood behind her, stopping her at the back of her waist from time to time, lest she fall down excitedly.

Su Yao held her cheeks, sat at the table next to them, and laughed at them making fun.

In the past, she said that she wanted to be a hero in the book.

Now that I think about it, it is hopeless to be a heroine, but it is true that I am a chivalrous man.

Thinking of this, Su Yao couldn't help but think of Wei Jingji, and the bottom of his eyes became deep for a moment.

But it will soon return to normal.

The guards sent to inquire found someone, squeezed into the crowd, and said to her: "Miss, my subordinates have already found out where Shi Taifu lives, so he lives in Meihua Lane under the Red Bridge, and Shi Taifu has a house there. ”

—

Plum Blossom Lane under the Red Bridge in Yangzhou.

Division's Mansion.

Someone had already received the letter, and they were waiting outside in advance, and the little girl looked at Su Yao and his party, and hurriedly greeted him: "County lord, you can count it, the teacher has been waiting for you for a long time." ”

Su Yao nodded at him and entered the door.

Walking through a few rockeries and living water, Taihu Lake stone and trickle complement each other, under the leafy osmanthus tree, the old man wears a plain dress, the hair is white and round, and a simple wooden hairpin is fixed.

Under the body is a square-shaped bamboo mat, covered with brocade from the edge to the inside, and the jade town is divided into four corners.

The little guy shouted: "Teacher, the county lord is here!" ”

Shi Taifu was doing a five-bird play, panting and stopped, and at a glance saw the slim young girl on the other side.

Seeing that it was really Su Yao, the master was overjoyed, and was helped up by the person next to him, who handed her the crutches, and he walked back while laughing.

The little servant said to Su Yao: "County Lord, please sit here for a while, and our teacher will come to see you after bathing and changing." ”

Su Yao nodded.

Half an hour later, Mrs. Shi came over on crutches, and when she came, she saw Su Yao drinking tea, and said happily on her face: "The old man remembers that the county lord likes to drink red robes, but I remember correctly, right?" ”

Su Jiao saw the old man again, and vaguely remembered that the master Taifu was alive and well when he taught people, and he never thought that he would not see him for a few years, and the Taifu was already full of gray hair, and he couldn't help but feel a little sentimental.

"You remember."

Shi Taifu's face was kind, and he couldn't hide his joy, and he didn't have time to drink the tea at hand.

"Yesterday, someone reported that you were going to come to see my old bones, and I was still talking nonsense as that person, and then the old man thought about it, and there were rumors among the people that you had moved out of the Jingzhong County Lord's Mansion, maybe what the man said was true, so he also made preparations in advance, but he was not busy in vain."

Su Yao also smiled, "Fortunately, Taifu has made preparations, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to drink such a hot red robe." ”

When Mrs. Shi heard this, she immediately asked someone to add tea to her, and brought a lot of exquisite food, which filled the food table on her right.

"Do you want to taste these? My unfilial daughter likes to eat these sweet cakes, the chef at home can do a lot of tricks, the famous ones in Yangzhou can be done, if it doesn't suit your heart, I will let the cook do it again. ”

When Su Yao heard this, she remembered that Mrs. Shi had a little daughter under her knees.

Because of her weak body, she couldn't stand the water and soil of the capital, so she was raised in her grandmother's house in Yangzhou.
