Chapter 443 Mid-Autumn Festival [Part 1]
On the afternoon of August 14th, Jiao Shun left the Department of Service earlier than usual, but did not rush home, but took a detour to Shuntian Mansion and surrendered.
Yesterday, Jia Yucun arrested two work-study students in a blatant manner, and quietly released the person. Obviously, this Jia Fujun, who had just taken office, chose to "enforce the law impartially" under pressure from all parties, but also
There is no intention of turning against others.
Of course, all this is based on the premise that Jiao Shun was regarded as a traitor by scholars but was regarded as a loyal minister by the emperor, otherwise he would have been afraid that he would have another face.
The reason why Jiao reciprocates his favor and specializes in this show that Jia Yucun has made the reputation of fulfilling Jia Yucun is because Jia Yucun has just been promoted to the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture, and the market is also very bullish.
To put it bluntly, it is common PY transactions in the officialdom.
In short, after two quarters of an hour of rebuffeting, Jiao Shun angrily left Shun Tian Mansion, and immediately surrounded two groups of people, including the first eight, the second six. The first eight were the Dragon King Guards dressed in casual clothes.
The next six are Kong Wu’s powerful work-study students.
It is said that scholars failed to rebel for three years, but with the large number of them, they will inevitably have a few strange species, and a few days ago, a prison student was carrying a short sword and preparing to assassinate the street while Jiao Shunsanya was in the scattered yamen.
Although he announced this great and detailed plan in front of more than 800 classmates in the canteen of the Imperial College one day in advance, he was taken down by the people from the City Inspection Department as soon as he arrived outside the industrial department.
However, the emperor was furious after learning about this and personally ordered Long Jinwei to send a special person to guard Jiao Shunwanquan, and asked the Imperial College to conduct a thorough rectification and investigation.
As for those working students, after hearing this, a total of eighteen people came to protect the troops spontaneously and divided into three shifts, so there were only six here.
Some people also suggested that Jiao Shun replace the iconic heavy horse-drawn horse and the luxurious horse-drawn carriage from Ningguo Mansion to reduce the risk of being assassinated.
Jiao Shun did not have this opinion seriously, but the emperor is now being caught by his ministers, but he is still determined to promote industrial innovation, so he is so happy to be the title of "Tushi" among some radical groups.
At this critical moment, how could he, as the number one innovation general under the emperor, show weakness in front of others?
Alas ~
If you want to wear a crown, you must bear the weight. All the past and present are like this.
However, in addition to the fixed working hours, Jiao Shun would quietly transfer to his own mule cart, not only safety considerations, but also to avoid his actions of stealing fragrance and jade from falling into the eyes of those who are interested.
For example, today.
After arriving at home, Jiao Shun gave away the guards and took time to tease his daughter. He then said that he had an appointment with someone and changed his clothes. He quietly carried a mule cart out of the back door of Rong Mansion and drove to the new house of Youjia overnight.
.
It will be Mid-Autumn Festival tomorrow in August, and Youshi is not good at competing with Jiao Shun's mother for this day, so she made an appointment to take the child to reunite with her parents' home today.
If Youshi wants to take her children back to her parents' home, it is naturally impossible for her to be alone. The maids and servants who accompany her have to count the numbers. In order to avoid losing their demographic, Jiao naturally chose to enter and exit through the back door.
I didn't expect that as soon as I got off the carriage, a short gun was pressed down on my temple. At the same time, a delicate and cold voice from Sister You San's ears came from my ears: "Don't move, otherwise don't blame me for being merciless!"
Jiao Shun glanced at the short gun from the corner of his eye, and his tense nerves suddenly relaxed again, and he said calmly: "I bet you have no bullets in your gun."
Sister You San was stunned, then threw the gun to Jiao Shun, pouting, "It's so boring, how do you know that this gun is fake?"
"Nonsense, this is my 100-day gift to Brother Xiong!"
Jiao Shun was holding a wooden gun in front, and You Sanjie followed behind and asked repeatedly: "What are you going to do with that fake nun? It's been seven or eight days. Don't you really want to use her?"
"Don't call me brother-in-law," he said, "You're yours!"
"What is my brother-in-law?"
Sister You San chased after a few steps, surrounded Jiao Shun's arm, and tiptoed in his ear and exhaled like a lantern: "If you agree to do something for me, let me make whatever I call you."
After a pause, he laughed and said, "Whatever you do is make it."
As he said that, he stuck out his tongue and scraped it on the scattered earlobe.
Hiss ~
This is a deadly little fairy!
Jiao Shun shivered, hurriedly shook her away, and scolded with a stern face: "Are you itchy skin?"
After saying that, he couldn't help but explore: "What kind of monster do you want to make trouble this time?"
But when you heard the voice of You Sanjie suddenly became terrible and cold: "I want you to capture Liu Xianglian back and send it to the Zhongshun Palace, so that he can also taste the feeling of being humiliated!"
Hiss ~
Jiao Shun couldn't help but shivered again, then ignored her and went to the courtyard where the Youshi sisters were familiar with it.
He was not interested in this little pepper who had hatred because of love. Instead, relying on the indulgence of You Lao Niang, You Shi, You Erjie and others, he had long regarded this little hoof as a meal on the plate, and was not afraid of fear.
, I just thought about grinding her temperament first and then starting to avoid hurting her teeth.
When he got rid of You Sanjie and arrived at the inner room of the back house, he found that only You Erjie was present and there was no trace of You Shi. After asking, he realized that he was preparing to coax the child to sleep and come over without any worries.
So Jiao Shun sat on the bed with a big golden knife, and while taking water to wash up, he asked about Miaoyu's recent situation.
"She is quite obedient. When I heard from the slave that I should not go out at will, I was actually stuck in the yard and the gate was not out of the second gate. The maid named Jingyi would occasionally ask the master indirectly."
“What else?”
"besides……"
While rubbing Jiao Shun's feet hard, he recalled hard: "By the way, she ordered a dish today, saying that she would eat it every Mid-Autumn Festival, because our chef can't cook it, so I'll let you
I went outside to inquire about several restaurants and finally ordered a ready-made one."
Hearing this, Jiao Shun immediately smiled at the villain who had succeeded in the conspiracy.
Miaoyu has been frugal since she was a child, and she has never been worried about her livelihood. She has also been a fake nun who has been young for twenty years. She has fooled herself, thinking that she is the most unrestrained person. She is not a lie.
People fantasize about being able to eat and drink in a humble alley, and people can't bear the worries and never change their happiness when they return.
As a result, after only two months of hard life, she almost drove her crazy.
Now that I have tasted wealth again, it would be fine if I just passively accept it. Now I have made an offer, which shows that my strategy of boiling frogs in warm water has worked.
Of course, it’s not possible to coax carrots, and you still have to put some pressure on it at critical moments.
So Jiao Shun explained again: "From today, she will ask about the food, clothing and food, and then try her best to satisfy her. I will ask someone to send a tea set tomorrow, so you can also use it for her.
.”
"When it's late this month, you can ask a doctor to show her. If you have almost recovered, let them go back to the temple to clean up first, and you'd like to prepare to move back in a few days."
You Erjie didn't understand it, but she had never had so many opinions. Since Jiao Shun had given the order, she would do whatever she wanted.
At this time, You Shi coaxed the child to sleep and came in from the outside. Seeing that the two of them were still neat, she couldn't help but smile and said, "Why are you holding this so much today? Do you still have to serve you with loose clothes?"
As he said that, he raised his hand to unbutton the clasp, and stepped on his feet and kicked off the embroidered shoes. He urged repeatedly: "I'm here just to relax, and I'll have any gossip and wait for the middle of the night to say it!"
Tsk ~
After giving birth to the child, this woman became more and more relaxed.
Seeing her like this, Jiao was naturally doing good...
The next day it was bright.
Youshi led the maid and the old man out of the front door with great fanfare, and Jiao Shun's mule cart also quietly left the back door.
Because it was Mid-Autumn Festival, merchants gathered on the streets, and the mule carts stopped and stopped, and the speed was still not enough. As a result, when we returned to Rongguo Mansion, it was almost noon.
Jiao Shun returned to the east wing and changed his clothes. As usual, he found the south room. While teasing Xiao Zhixia, he asked about his arrangements for noon and evening.
"It's nothing at noon. In the evening, according to my wife's intention, I wanted to go to the new house to enjoy the moon. I said that although the place has not been covered yet, I still stayed for one night for a while."
"It's done, too."
Jiao Shun was so tired that he poked his daughter's palm with his fingers, tempting her to hold it hard. The tender and soft blood-connected touch made people exhausted all night.
"The other thing is that the uncle of the Xue family sent a basket of sea crabs yesterday. The master asked him to make some drunk crabs in advance to drink. Now there is still half a box left. I see if it is steamed or…"
"Send it to Qinghonglou and ask them to help cook. I went to Wei Ruolan for their crab banquet last time. I looked at the neat one, and gently rolled it with chopsticks, and then opened the cover.
The bits and pieces inside have been cleaned up long ago, leaving only the prepared crab meat and crab roe. Eat it directly and dipped in seasonings is very cheap."
Xing Xiuyan heard this and hurriedly stood up and said, "Then I'll send the crabs here."
"What's the hurry? It's time to deliver it after lunch."
As she was talking about family matters, Xiangling rushed in and shouted: "Auntie, aunt, something happened, something big happened!"
Before Xing Xiuyan could speak, Jiao Shun glared at her first and scolded: "Why are you so unruly? What if you scare the lady, look at how I deal with you tonight!"
Xiangling shrank her neck when she was scolded, and she stammered and didn't dare to speak loudly anymore.
Xing Xiuyan stepped forward and handed her a cup of tea and asked, "Didn't you go to Mrs. Xue to repay the gift? Could it be that something happened to her family?"
Xiangling had just subconsciously sipped her tea. When she heard Xing Xiuyan's words, she nodded desperately, puffed her cheeks like a hamster, holding her mouth full of words but didn't dare to speak rashly.
"Who are you pretending to be pitiful?"
Jiao Shun said angrily and amusedly: "What's going on? Why don't you explain it clearly quickly? It's so simple that it makes people feel anxious!"
Xiangling then said quickly: "It's the Mei family. The Mei family suddenly ran to Zijin Street to leave the kiss early in the morning. I heard that they were yelling to cut off their robe and break up their robe on the street. The news just reached this mansion.
At that time, the second wife was setting up a table of wine to recognize Miss Qin as her goddaughter, but after hearing the news, she almost turned up the table!"
The Mei family has retired?
This far away urged people to go to Beijing to get married. I heard that I even posted a monthly post, but why did I suddenly want to leave the bride again?
And...
It’s not Mrs. Wang’s turn to turn over the table, right?
Before I recognized this goddaughter, could it be that the mother and daughter were connected to each other?
Jiao Shun was confused when he heard this, so he hurriedly asked again: "What's going on? Tell me more clearly!"
Xiangling lowered her head embarrassedly and said stutteringly: "When I heard this, I was in a hurry to come back and report the news."
This silly girl!
You say she is stupid, but she is the most talented among the maids. She says she is smart, and she often makes jokes.
Jiao Shun said angrily: "Then why don't you go and find out carefully!"
Xiangling agreed and turned around and was about to go out.
Xing Xiuyan hurriedly called her and asked Hongyu to accompany her to avoid making mistakes when she was busy.
After about half an hour, the two maids returned home and reported the causes and consequences in detail.
But it turned out that Mei Hanlin was fascinated by fame and fortune, and was determined to make things bigger, but he did not have the courage of Sun Shaozu, so he dared to come to Rongguo Mansion to block the door and scold him, so he went to the old house on Zijin Street as usual and put on the street.
The parties announced the decision to break the engagement.
He also said in public that the reason why he broke off the engagement was completely shameless to the Xue family. Not only did he recognize the second wife of Rongguo Mansion, who had a bad reputation as his adopted mother, he also had a connection with the traitor Jiao Shunduo. This was his own guess.
But it was a coincidence.
The former is fine, but the latter completely violated his Mei's reverse scale.
Who among the Hanlin Academy knows that Mei is righteous and has nothing to do with the traitor who disturbs the court and bewitches the king?!
Therefore, he resolutely made such a decision that violated his ancestors.
What makes people speechless is that in order not to lose filial piety and to satisfy their mother's desire to witness their grandson's marriage, Mei Hanlin even made a public appointment to recruit marriages, setting a standard for marriage of three or three no...
After listening, Jiao Shun didn't know what to say for a moment.
This Mei Hanlin is really a weird one!
No wonder Mrs. Wang almost overturned the table. The storm caused by the evil incident in the city directly led to her breakup with Jia Zheng. Now, the news has finally passed, but it has been brought up again by Mei Hanlin's old story.
If it were Jiao Shun, I would probably have the heart that was cut into pieces by Mei Hanlin.
Having said that, although Jiao Shun himself didn't feel anything, it was obvious that this was also coming to him.
Doesn't this mean...
Can he justify this anger for the Xue family?
Thinking of this, Jiao Shun couldn't help but feel secretly happy, thinking that he was worried about how to advance his last step with Aunt Xue. Unexpectedly, Mei Hanlin took the initiative to come to him!
And by the way, you can also get the favorability of Xue Baoqin.
Although it seems that unless he is willing to give up Lin Daiyu and choose Xue Baoqin as his part-time partner, there is no chance of buying this little beauty, but Jiao has always had a date or no date to make a three-pointer, so he will confirm the favor first.
I can't prepare for it and then use it later.
but……
