Chapter 255 Advent
In May, M Mother Zhang began to be busy preparing for the Dragon Boat Festival. She sent gifts to the Shui family, took back the gifts, and then sent people to send thank-you gifts. At this time, the willow alley is comparable to the former quietness. I don't know how many times the people who want to give gifts, and there are more gifts to receive. After receiving gifts, they always have to send people. It's not easy to make people feel frivolous to return the gift. This time, the house was busy one by one. Mother Zhang discussed with Mother Lu and Wisteria, reported to Li Xiaoyao, and picked some servants to buy them back, and they really couldn't cope with it.
Counting the days, it's time for the official of the Ministry of Ceremonies who rushed to Wu to question the assassination should also pass Zhengcheng. Su Zicheng and Su Ziyi picked up an auspicious day and prepared to leave for Huaiyang after the Dragon Boat Festival. When they came back from the Ning Palace, Su Zicheng called Li Xiaoyao and asked, "Has Wei Shuisheng recovered?"
"It's much better. I've been practicing swords with my left hand when I get up in the morning and a few pages of words in the afternoon. Thank you, my lord." Li Xiaoyao replied with a smile. Su Zicheng nodded with satisfaction and looked at Li Xiaoyao's suggestion: "After the First World War, we have to rest and recuperate for a while. I think it is also a saying that Wei Shuisheng can't make great contributions. At least, there is also a saying that we will seek a suitable job after the war. Fa, what do you think?
"Thank you very much, Prince, I can't ask for it." Li Xiaoyao smiled and simply agreed. Su Zicheng breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "We set out on the sixth evening of the first lunar month. It's not been a few days since the auspicious time that Qin Tianjian was optimistic about. You go back and prepare and take a few more maids to wait with you. This trip is no better than you going to Taiping Mansion. You can take as much as you want." Li Xiaoyao looked at Su Zicheng in a daze. Forget it, just go. Big brother and Shuisheng brothers have all gone to the battlefield of Huainan Road. They are also uneasy when they stay in Kaiping Mansion. It's better to watch nearby. Maybe they can help something. As for business, alas, it's not an urgent matter. Let's procrastinate first. Just take a look at Huainan Road. Is there any business that can be done?••••• Li Xiaoyao nodded with a smile. Su Zicheng beckoned her to the map of the east wall and pointed to the map of Huainan Road and whispered, "I have discussed with my eldest brother. This trip should be a quick decision. The faster it is to take down Huainan Road, the better. We can't leave a dispatch for the Empress Dowager Wu and the eldest prince. After taking it down, you should suppress and stabilize the people's heart as soon as possible. The eldest brother's intention is to leave this to you. He said that you are at least better than me. That's what I mean. The eldest brother has watched the household department to choose the right state and county officials. Li Xiaoyao suffocated in his throat and looked at Su Zicheng and whispered, "Is there no one in Beiping? Do you want me to care about such a big deal?"
"There are people, but I don't like them." Su Zicheng dusted his long coat and replied. Li Xiaoyao blinked and didn't say anything for a long time.
In the evening, Li Xiaoyao got out of the car in the second door and dragged his feet to visit Wei Shuisheng first. Wei Shuisheng had just written two small regular scripts. Li Xiaoyao picked it up and kept boasting. Wei Shuisheng laughed: "Is this still a good word? When did Xiaoxiao's praise become so worthless?
"It's very good. It's better than what I wrote. It's all a good word!" Li Xiaoyao said very seriously. Begonia, who was sending red date soup in, suddenly laughed. Wei Shuisheng also smiled and shrugged his shoulders. Several people laughed for a while and drank red date soup. Li Xiaoyao told Su Zicheng's arrangement. Wei Shuisheng reached out and gently patted Li Xiaoyao's thin shoulder and whispered sadly, "Look at your thinness. Although it is a quick decision, no matter how fast it is, it will take half a year. It is easy to defeat the city. How much will it take to straighten out the broken city? Xiaoyao, alas! I don't know what to say!"
"It's okay. Anyway, the prince said that this trip is not better than going to Taiping Mansion. You can bring more girl and more things. I just thought about it. Anyway, we both went to Huaiyang and Huainan Road, and there are not many people in the house. I will take it and pack up ten cars and eight things. Just like swimming in the mountains and playing with water, it's not that Shuisheng Brother doesn't know me. He enjoys it the most. It's okay!" Li Xiaoyao smiled and comforted Wei Shuisheng. Wei Shuisheng sighed and nodded.
"There's another thing, you're not as good as before. This hand is not convenient. Besides, your body has not fully recovered. You have to have a few powerful servants to wait with you. Our family is late, and this man is not good at hand. I want to ask Shuitongda/Grandma to ask a few reliable and safe servants for you to use. Do you think it's okay?" Li Xiaoyao looked at Wei Shuisheng and discussed. Wei Shuisheng blinked his eyes. Li Xiaoyao squeezed his mouth and whispered with a smile, "I heard that the wife of the seven women's dowry has already prepared it. Ask her to send a few to you and you can use them first. Anyway, they will come sooner or later." Wei Shuisheng's face suddenly appeared a layer of blush, and he tried to say as if nothing had happened, "You can arrange it." Li Xiaoyao stood up with a smile and went back to wash up and eat.
Early the next morning, the Ministry of War sent Wei Shuisheng's delegation to Liushu Hutong. The military affairs on Huainan Road were secretly prepared. Shuiyan confusedly led the rank of a household member, and unified the dispatch of military food and fodder. Wei Shuisheng took the name of a staff and followed Shuiyan's ' Counselor Department'. Wei Shuisheng took over the appointment and changed his clothes. He rushed to Liangwang's palace to look for Shuiyan and report.
In the afternoon, the steward of Shuitong Mansion found Shuiyan and Li Xiaoyao and asked when she would return home. He said that Shuitongda/Grandma had wrapped some palms herself and wanted to send some to the fifth master to taste. Li Xiaoyao looked at Shuiyan and smiled and said, "Shen Zheng will go back before, but the host and guest are at your place. It's meaningless for me to go back early. I'll ask you for mercy and let them go back early." Shuiyan smiled and shook his head: "Seven women are such a steady person..." Li Xiaoyao looked at Shuiyan and suddenly restrained his smile. He closed his eyes and prayed with his hands together: "Gods and Bodhisattva, please give Kaipingfu Shuiyan a marriage of love and soul, Amitabha Buddha!" Shuiyan looked at Li Xiaoyao in a daze. Li Xiaoyao opened her eyes and smiled and said, "Well, I have prayed for you. When you are haunted, you will understand the Seventh Lady." Shuiyan couldn't laugh or cry: "Listen to what you said, it's as if you were dreaming around, do you understand?" Li Xiaoyao's face stiffened, took two steps back, turned around and left with a smile, ignored his words.
As soon as Li Xiaoyao returned to Liushu Hutong and changed his clothes, Shuitong entered the second door. Li Xiaoyao hurried out. Mother Zhang cleared the second door and only waited with Haitang and Qingcheng. Shuitong saw Li Xiaoyao with a helpless smile. Li Xiaoyao stretched out his head and looked at the car and smiled, "Is Sister Lian also here?" Before the words fell, the curtain was raised. Shuilian blushed and tried to get out of the car calmly. Li Xiaoyao stepped forward and took her and smiled, "I'm going to leave for Huaiyang with the prince in a few days, thinking that you should also come and talk to me. Why did you come here today?" Shuilian hurriedly explained, "I'm here to talk to you. Where do you want to go?" Li Xiaoyao squeezed his lips and smiled without saying a word. Shuitong followed closely and laughed, "This is not 300 taels of silver here!" Shuilian blushed and turned her head and stopped talking.
Mother Zhang walked far ahead and led the three to a quiet flower hall not far from the second door. She bent her knees far away and retreated. Wei Shuisheng greeted him at the door of the flower hall, and her face was naturally full of unnatural behavior. She bowed to the two people. Li Xiaoyao let go of Shuilian. , turned around and pulled Shuitong and smiled, "Grandma, I have something to ask you for help. These flowers are blooming well. Shall we talk while enjoying the flowers?" Shuitong stopped walking, turned his head and looked at the flower hall with open windows on all sides and Mother Zhang and Haitang standing in the distance and said with a smile, "The fifth master is a kind of person. If there is anything wrong, just say it." Li Xiaoyao took Shuitong and walked a few steps aside. He whispered that he wanted to find a proper man for Wei Shuisheng. Shuitong smiled and promised, "How can't you do it? It's up to me!"
"Then I'm relieved. In addition to this, there is another thing. First, it's the house where Brother Shuisheng got married. Originally, I thought that Brother Shuisheng and I were both in Kaiping House. Now you can see, there is no one in the family who can make the decision. This matter will be entrusted to the big/grandma together. We must choose a place to make people satisfied. In the house, I asked the stew manager under the door to call Zhang Gouzi. Go to the house to see the big/grandmother. If you want to repair the house, please also ask the big/grandma to worry about him and guide him. Li Xiaoyao then entrusted him, and Shui Tong nodded repeatedly and agreed: "Don't worry, I used to discuss with my seventh sister, and I want to put it in a place. It's just a heart. Later, I talked to the second master. The second master said that there was no. The fifth master must have a good idea. This house was put there, and it was unpleasant to talk about, and it hurt Wei. I think it's better to turn the face of the second master and the fifth master. It's better to turn it into something else. The fifth master just rest assured that the fifth master and the Shui family are just begging for them to be good. Leave this matter to me. The fifth master has been very thin for a while. I brought some bird's nest and red ginseng to know that you are not lacking, but I do my best and remember to take care more. , if you don't maintain it when you are young, you will know the bitterness when you are old••••••” Shuitong agreed and told Li Xiaoyao trivially. Li Xiaoyao looked at her with some surprise and smiled, "Why is the big/grandmother?•••••••
"Is it?" Shuitong touched the temples with some embarrassment: "No wonder A Ming always thinks I'm verbos. It seems that I'm really in the grade, and the words have come up. The fifth master doesn't know that the women who work in the Ciyou Bureau have to talk about it. If they don't say a word, they can't make a point..." Li Xiaoyao didn't interrupt her, but only smiled and listened to her again. Speaking of the trivial things of the Salesian Bureau, it seems that she is lively and angry now. When she first met, how could she have the intention to talk?
