Chapter 33: Your Father Is Not Dead?
Zhao Dezhu said impassionedly, but Song Xuan's scalp was numb when he listened.
"No, Uncle Zhao, I'm just going to be a hundred households, I'm not the only one of the hundred households in Jiangsu and Zhejiang Mansion, and there are thousands of households on it.
I'm here to be an official, not to fight, so there's no need to exaggerate, right? ”
Zhao Dezhu shook his head slightly, "Jiangsu and Zhejiang Mansion is the largest mansion in Mingzhou, and it is also the richest place in Mingzhou.
The 100 households that died this time belonged to the Xu family, and the Xu family, like us, was one of the 120 hereditary Xuanyiwei families in the imperial capital.
Our family does not have a title in our bodies, but we are rooted in the system of Xuanyiwei, and we are tied to the Great Zhou, and we are also the most trusted force of the Son of Heaven.
Suddenly, the Xu family died inexplicably, and it was also a sensitive area in Jiangsu and Zhejiang Mansions that was focused on by the imperial court, which was unusual.
I guess that the Qianhu Office in Jiangsu and Zhejiang Prefecture is likely to have been infiltrated by other forces, which the Son of Heaven absolutely cannot tolerate.
Your last case was handled beautifully, and it is estimated that the Son of Heaven has already noticed you, and this time he sent you to take up his post, and he also wants you to find out what is going on. ”
Song Xuan frowned.
The reason why he wanted to participate in the second-class Xuanyi Wei assessment was the welfare after promotion, in order to make it more convenient for him to go to work.
You suddenly promoted me again, and you entrusted me with a heavy responsibility, you made me very sudden.
After getting off work, Song Xuan didn't pay attention to Lu Xiaoliu's invitation to listen to the music, but went home directly by himself.
In the courtyard, two grandmothers from Jiafu were honestly sweeping the floor, Song Qian was eating grapes with Erlang's legs crossed, and supervising her little cousin Lin Daiyu to take a step.
"You're absent from work again?" Song Xuan asked casually.
Song Xuan spit out the grape skin in his mouth, and said vaguely: "It's over in the morning, anyway, there's nothing to do in the yamen, just come back to teach Daiyu's sister to practice martial arts, her body is too weak, so she has to start by polishing her body." ”
Song Xuan snorted, and didn't care, the second-class Xuanyi guard was indeed relatively idle unless there was a special arrangement above.
Everyone is fishing, and there is no shortage of Song Qian.
After returning to the house, he took off his official uniform, changed into a white robe, and washed his face in the courtyard, Song Xuan said casually: "You have been promoted!" ”
"Huh?"
Song Qian was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly asked, "How many levels have you upgraded?" ”
"Level 1, Deputy Hundred!"
"Oh......" Song Qian suddenly lacked interest, "A hundred households are a hundred households, and it's still a deputy, so it's not interesting." Brother, what about you? ”
"I'm a hundred households!"
"After that, will there be more money every month?"
Song Xuan's chin bowed, "Twenty taels more." ”
"Twenty taels for one person, forty taels for two people!" Song Qian snapped her fingers, "It's four thousand eight hundred taels more a year, and it's 120,000 in three years, brother, we can buy the marquis' mansion in the east of the city in three years!" ”
Lin Daiyu, who was holding back her little face and flushed her little face, burst out laughing.
Song Qian snorted: "What are you laughing at, do you think I'm wrong?" ”
"What did my sister say, I think you are too accurate, it's a waste of talent to be an errand in Xuanyiwei, you should go to the household department!"
As soon as she said this, Song Qian raised her chin slightly and said with a smile: "Yes, my brother has said since I was a child that I am an arithmetic genius, and you say the same, it seems that my talent is really good." ”
Lin Daiyu pursed her lips and endured it, and finally raised her hand to cover her mouth, and looked at Cousin Song Xuan with a smile in her eyes.
At this moment, Song Xuan is also speechless, which is very different from his previous quiet and indifferent image, and Lin Daiyu is quite interesting to watch.
"In a few days, we will go to Mingzhou Jiangsu and Zhejiang Mansion to take office! You prepare, let's leave early the day after tomorrow! ”
"Huh? Going to Jiangsu and Zhejiang? ”
Song Qian seemed a little unhappy, "People in that place are unfamiliar, why did you arrange us there?" ”
"Oh, a hundred households just died there, and I just went to fill the vacancy, otherwise it would not be my turn to take the seat of this hundred households."
"Knowing that you have made meritorious contributions, brother, and you want to be promoted and raised, it is quite time for the hundred households to die!"
Song Xuan sighed, "He died a little early, and I had no intention of going to other places to be an official." ”
"That's ......" Song Qian groaned, "Then when I get to Jiangsu and Zhejiang Mansion, I'll go and dig up his grave!" ”
"Hmm!" Song Xuan nodded, "You really have to pick it up, and you can only determine some things if you pick it up." ”
Lin Daiyu listened to the conversation between her cousin and cousin in a daze, what these two people said was really human?
People are dead to make room for you, this is not satisfied, you still have to go to the grave, do the Xuanyi guard industry, the idea is so strange?
Of course, Lin Daiyu didn't care about the issue of digging graves at all, she was staring at Song Xuan eagerly at the moment, and Song Xuan, who was looking directly, muttered in her heart.
Are all the little girls so bold now?
Brother looks a little handsome, but even if you look at it, can you be subtle, so enthusiastic and unrestrained, it doesn't fit your sister Lin's personality!
"Cousin......"
Lin Daiyu shouted softly, and asked with some expectation: "You go to Jiangsu and Zhejiang Mansion, can you take me with you?" ”
Song Xuan shook his head, "We are going on a business trip, not to go sightseeing, it's not appropriate for you to go along!" ”
Lin Daiyu hurriedly said: "My father is an official in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and I haven't seen him for many years, can you take me with you?" ”
"Your father?" Song Xuan was stunned, "Lin Ruhai? ”
Hearing her father's name, Lin Daiyu's face also became solemn, and she saluted and said, "My father is indeed called by this name." ”
Song Xuan hesitated and asked, "Your father is not dead yet?" ”
According to the setting of Dream of Red Mansions, Lin Daiyu was about ten years old when her father died of illness.
And now that Lin Daiyu is almost fifteen years old, her father should have been dead for four or five years, right?
Lin Daiyu's face changed when she heard this, her eyes became sharp, and she said angrily: "Cousin, I respect you as a brother, but how can you curse your father like this?"
My father also wrote a letter last month, although he is sick, he has been treated by Lang Medicine, and he has no worries about his life! ”
Song Xuan was a little stunned.
It seems that he took it for granted, after all, this is not a simple dream of Red Mansions world, but a martial arts world where multiple martial arts worlds are integrated, Lin Daiyu has become his little cousin, she also has a living father, it seems to be normal, right?
Song Xuan is not the kind of person who says the wrong thing and is hard-mouthed, so he immediately apologized, "It's me who used the wrong words, I thought you had been living in Jiafu, and your loved ones at home were no longer there." ”
Seeing that Lin Daiyu was already teary-eyed, he immediately said: "Since my cousin wants to go to Jiangsu and Zhejiang Mansion to find relatives, then I will wait with me, and you can be regarded as a companion with your cousin on the road." ”
"Thank you, cousin!"
The little cousin turned from sadness to joy, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and smiled sweetly at Song Xuan and Song Qian.
"Then I will go back to Jiafu tonight and tell the old ancestor that the old ancestor has loved me so much over the years, and if I want to leave, I must get her old man's consent."
Song Xuan bowed, "You go back to Jiafu first, and early the next morning, we will go to Jiafu to pick you up!" ”
