Chapter 364: All the bad girls drive away the monthly pass)
"Master Hu, Mr. Hu, Niu Lidian, please come soon. Empress Chen Jiang is here, and Miss Shui, Xing'er, and Yu Ji are here!" A teenage boy in his teens came over panting and shouting in the heavy snow.
All the people who worked stopped, then threw down their things together and rushed to the west end of the town.
Sure enough, in the vast snow, surrounded by a group of villagers in Xiaohe Village, Chen Jiang, wearing an exquisite skirt and fur cloak, held a package in his arms, led Xing'er and Yu Ji, and followed by a black dress, a pretty water gentle slowly coming.
Niu Dashi, the villagers in the town, Hu Kuan and others, quickly met him. Except for Niu Dashi, Liu Po, Hu Kuan and others, they knelt all over the ground in a whirring moment and shouted to welcome the empress.
"Get up quickly, it's snowing, the ground is cold!" Chen Jiang had experienced this situation several times, but he was still a little busy and quickly bent down to pull up the people in front of him, and his face was also very embarrassed.
After Chen Xu traveled over, his family's life was getting better and better. Not only did he eat, but he also had enough food and clothing, but he also had enough food and warm clothes. Therefore, more than this year has passed, and the traces left by poverty and fatigue have become less and less on Chen Jiang's body. His complexion is full and his face is rosy. Even the crow's feet at the corners of his eyebrows have disappeared a lot, and he gradually returned to the expression that a woman in her thirties in her prime should have. In addition, her status is different from the past. As the marquis' mother, every move, every word and every action falls into the eyes of the villagers, with a kind of rich and noble atmosphere of demeanor.
Xing'er is nine years old this year, and she is well-fed and has a good food and drink. She can no longer see her poor appearance, which can be blown away by a gust of wind. Although she is still lively and active, her words and deeds are no different from ordinary country girls, she is wearing exquisite mink short squids and skirts, her hair is neatly tied with agate-inlaid hairpins. She is naturally the appearance of a wealthy lady. In the eyes of children in the town, she is a tall princess-like figure. She can only see and worship from a distance and dare not come forward to talk.
This is the class, this is the natural insurmountable hierarchy difference between nobles and civilians.
"Auntie, why are you here to come for such heavy snow?" Niu Dashi greeted him and saluted.
"Dashi, I heard that you were going to arrange a convoy to Xianyang and bring a few children from the village to help Xiaoxu. I knitted a pair of trousers for Xiaoxu, and Miss Shui knitted a sweater for him, a hat, gloves, scarf, and some snacks. Please help me bring it to him!" Chen Jiang handed the package in his hand to Niu Dashi, and several villagers from Xiaohe Village next to him also took off several packages from their backs.
Niu Dashi turned around and handed the package to Hu Kuan, "Brother Hu, please take it with you and tell him that we are all very good, my aunt, little sister, Shui Girl, and Yu Ji are all very good, let him be a marquis, and I will help him manage Qinghe Town!"
After half a year of pawning, Niu Dashi also had a little more temperament, which was no longer the same as the appearance of a rural child before.
"Please rest assured to Lidian, please rest assured to the Empress, Hu Kuan will definitely bring all the clothes and words!" Hu Kuan took the next few packages and nodded quickly.
"Hu Kuan, are these carriages taken to Xianyang?" Chen Jiang asked, looking at the long carriages lined up in the town.
"Yes, the Marquis wrote a letter to inform me half a month ago, asking me to prepare supplies to open a Qinghe hotel in Xianyang. All of these goods must be taken to Xianyang! At the same time, I also have to bring some people to help."
"So many goods and children are snowing heavily. You must be careful on the road and do not worry!" Chen Jiangshi's eyes turned red after saying that, and wiped the corners of her eyes with her sleeves and was stunned for a while and said softly: "I don't know if Xiaoxu was doing well in Xianyang alone, and if anyone cooked for him or not, I heard that Xianyang was colder than our Nanyang..."
"Auntie, don't worry, senior brother has always been with him. Besides, Chen Lang has been granted a marquis, and the emperor must have rewarded him with a lot of clothes, money and food. There must be some servants who cook. Don't miss you too much. After the spring begins, I will take you and Xing'er and Yu Ji to visit him in Xianyang!" Shui Qingrou said gently while holding Chen Jiang's arm next to her.
"I just can't rest assured. It's snowy and snowy. I don't know whether he is a habit of eating Xianyang's food?" Although Chen Jiang knew that Shui Qingrou was right and said these words many times, he started to be dazed every day as soon as he ate, just like losing his soul. Sometimes whenever he saw Chen Xu's things left at home, he couldn't help but cry secretly.
"Don't worry, Empress, I heard from the people who sent the letter from Xianyang that His Majesty gave the Marquis a large prime minister's mansion, and hundreds of servants. There were dozens of young ladies serving daily life. The Marquis also cooked various delicious foods at home every day, and even made a strange food called fried stinky tofu. He also used stinky tofu to cure the anorexia of Fusu's mother. He also heard that the Marquis was recruited into the palace every day to play mahjong with His Majesty Emperor, Concubine Zheng, and Fusu's young master..." Hu Kuan quickly told all the real and false news he had heard.
"Then I'll be relieved!" Chen Jiangshi let go, then took Shui Qingrou's hand and said a little embarrassed and apologetically, "I'm afraid that he will not be able to help it..."
"Aunt..." Shui Qingrou's cheeks flushed, and she lowered her head and said softly, "In front of so many people talking about this issue, a girl is naturally shy and hard to be aware of.
"Mom, are you saying that your brother wants to change me a sister-in-law? Sister Shui is worried. When I go to Xianyang, I will definitely help you drive away all the bad ladies!" Xing'er shouted with a little dissatisfaction.
"Yes, I'll drive it away. Brother Xu can only marry Aunt Shui!" Yu Ji clenched her fist and helped Xing'er.
Shui Qingrou's cheeks became redder and she didn't dare to look up at all.
"Everything is gone, we'll go to work quickly!" You Jiao Liu Po yelled a few times, driving away the villagers who were all pricking their ears to listen to a few more words of Qinghe Hou's gossip.
"Miss Shui, do you have anything to say to Qinghehou, I'll take it with you together!" Hu Kuan bowed gently to Shui with a little embarrassed.
Shui Qingrou nodded, took out a letter with a blushing face and handed it to Hu Kuan and said softly: "Please tell him that we are all good and miss him very much, so let him take care of his health!"
"Miss Shui, please rest assured. Hu Kuan will deliver the letter as soon as possible!" Hu Kuan put away the letter and nodded solemnly.
"Well, thank you!" Shui Qingrou gave Hu Kuan a light blessing, and then said to Chen Jiangshi, "Aunt, the snow is getting heavier and heavier, let's go back!"
"Hu Kuan, be careful on the way, Xing'er, say goodbye to Brother Dashi!" Chen Jiang nodded and ordered Xing'er.
"Goodbye Brother Dashi!" Xing'er still saluted Niu Dashi very politely.
"Hehe!" Niu Dashi instantly returned to his usual silly expression, touching the back of his head and giggling a few times.
Chen Jiang came and went quickly, and soon disappeared in the vast wind and snow with the companionship of several villagers in Xiaohe Village.
"The Marquis' family is all kind and kind, and it should be rewarded. Hu Kuan can get to know the Marquis in this life, which is worthwhile!" Hu Kuan couldn't help sighing after watching Chen Jiang walk away.
"Auntie is right. Brother Hu, it's windy and snowy, and the road is slippery and difficult to walk. Be careful all the way. And this time I brought more than a dozen children from Xiaohe Village and the town. You must take good care of them on the road. Don't have any trouble!" Niu Dashi restored Lidian's expression.
"Don't worry, Lidian, we will care carefully. Besides, I have already greeted the county magistrate and the county magistrate in Wancheng. At that time, they will arrange for the county magistrate's magistrate's office to take people to escort the car personally, and nothing will happen!" Hu Kuan said.
"That's good, let's get the goods faster, otherwise I'm afraid I won't be able to complete it today!"
Half an hour later, more than twenty trucks were tied tightly with cargo, and seven closed vans, there were more than ten boys and girls aged 13 or 14, all wearing thick winter clothes and hats, with extremely excited expressions on their faces. They all wanted to follow them to Xianyang, to help at the Qinghe Hou Mansion or to help with the newly opened Qinghe shop, theater, and inn to help with the accounting management. They have been learning literacy and arithmetic and abacus for more than a year, which is enough to cope with daily simple calculations. Moreover, they are all from Qinghe Town, so Chen Xu can use it with confidence in finance.
"Put the flag~"
With Hu Kuan's roar, dozens of helpers inserted the flags that had been prepared on the carriage, sweeping in the wind and snow. The four seal script characters in the Hou Mansion of Qinghe were particularly conspicuous.
"Out~" Hu Kuan yelled again.
"Drive~" all the grooms who drove the car whipped and shouted. More than 30 large carts moved slowly. The thick wooden wheels crushed the ice and snow and headed towards Wancheng along the ruts. The helpers who accompanied them also turned over the horses and dozens of horses followed.
"Baby~ I'll kowtow when I see the marquis!"
"Don't cause trouble for the marquis!"
"Don't make trouble when you arrive in Xianyang, otherwise I will beat you to death!"
"My father, take care of yourself~"
"Brother, take care of yourself~"
The entire Qinghe Town was almost full of movement, with thousands of men, women, young and old following the convoy, shouting advice. The sound of calling fathers and children in the car resounded all the way, with some advice and scolding, and more of them crying with joy, and they were sent to the Black Tiger Bend ten miles away until the convoy could no longer see it. The villagers still looked around for a long time before returning with the elderly and the young.
Once the bones and flesh are separated, it may not be possible to meet for three or five years.
But for these children, leaving Qinghe Town, what is presented to them is a vast world, and from then on, the sea and the sky are wide and the sky are allowed to fly high.
