"Hahaha..." Brother Yu's sharp and tender voice was filled with joy.

Qingniang held a long whip in her hand and was hitting the top on the ground. The top spun quickly, and it took a long time to slow down. After Qingniang hit the whip again, the top spun again quickly.

Brother Yu held both hands and stomped his feet happily.

Qingniang handed the long whip to Brother Yu, "Here you are, you try."

Brother Yu held the whip and hit the ground with a ‘pop’, without touching the top.

"Hahaha..." Brother Yu is still very happy, just as playing with a whip.

Lvhe stood in the corridor, leaning against the painted red column, very depressed.

Xie Ning sighed after looking at the scene from a distance to find her son.

When Brother Yu was taking a nap, Xie Ning seized the opportunity and asked casually, "You got 19 this year, right?"

Luhe nodded, and replied with a strong spirit: "Yes."

"Big girl, I have to quickly find you a husband's house, I don't want to pay a fine." Xie Ning quipped.

Luhe is a slave, and in the Qing Dynasty slaves, except for the maid in the palace, all the maidservants who have been unmarried after 22 are not married, but they have to punish the master's silver.

The maid in the palace, twenty-six out of the palace voluntarily married.

Luhe felt even more bored, and glanced at Xie Ning sadly, "Master Ning!"

"I mean, what do you like?"

Luhe couldn't tell, she grew up so old, except for the little girl who was so old that she was in the Zhou family. After being successfully bought, she is now the big girl in front of the master.

She would want to marry Qianghuo, because he has good medical skills, kind heart, and because she has only Qianghuo to choose from.

Thinking of this, Luhe replied: "Good-hearted."

Xie Ning thought of the miserable Mei Niang a few years ago, and agreed: "Yes, good is good."

"If a man has a good heart and a good heart, at least he will not beat a woman."

Luhe was surprised, "I really didn't expect this."

"You are self-motivated, acting steadily, and you can live well on your own. As long as you are comfortable at home and the guy doesn't do anything to you, your life will always be easier."

The laws of Qing Dynasty support and leave, but it is very difficult.

"Yes, like Ning Ye, who has the ability, the old ladies dare not push you." Luhe envied.

Indeed, because Lin Jin is still young, the Zhou family is still Lin Jin as the head of the house, but Xie Ning has always made his own decisions and has no restrictions on how Xie Ning uses silver to do things.

But it was still urged, but it was the year of the husband's death. Since he agreed to give birth to a younger brother or sister, the husband and wife worked hard for the year and a half, but Xie Ning's stomach remained silent.

Not thinking about this, Xie Ning wanted to untie Luhe, "Then what do you think? I will find a good relationship for you after I go to Beijing, or do you recognize the person in front of you?"

Luhe immediately shook his head, very firm, "Speak out, I'm afraid Ning will laugh."

Xie Ning put on a posture of'willing to hear the details.'

Luhe: "I entered Zhou's house at fifteen and I didn't know how to live as a relative at that time. I just watched my grandfather pampering you, loving you and respecting you. It has been five years... I have never spoken loudly to you."

Xie Ning pouted, and some, even punished him to kneel in the ancestral hall.

"I don't know what kind of guy I like, or what kind of life I want to live, but I want to marry a guy who doesn't accept concubines or accept houses..."

"Why would I laugh at you?" Xie Ning patted Luhe on the shoulder. "People in Dajing Village of my hometown say that Xie Ning is born with a good life. Some of you, I will definitely find a good home for you."

Lu He laughed out loud, with the beauty of a little woman.

Xie Ning retracted his hand and said to Luhe, "I want to open it? Aren't you sad?"

"I want to think about it, he likes to wander around, there should be such a chivalrous girl by his side." Luhe said goodbye to the past in his heart: you and I are not a good match for each other.

Xie Ning also breathed a sigh of relief. He admired Luhe very much, and when he arrived in the capital, he would definitely choose a responsible man for Luhe.

...

On the second day after Qianghuo came back, Xie Ning arranged for people from the firm to transport books from a study to an inn outside the capital by land.

Because in the Qing dynasty, no matter how old the official position is, as long as he is not a Beijing official, he cannot enter Beijing without a call, let alone set up a house in the capital.

So the books can only be shipped and waited.

Their family was escorted to Beijing by the Ministry of War ten days later. For the industry in Jianzhou, Wu Wei and Zhang Hai were asked to supervise and control each other, and report to the capital on a quarterly basis.

After everything was in order, Zhou Lao San's family began to move five times, which was the largest and the furthest relocation.

Xie Ning took Brother Yu in a carriage, and Brother Yu was clamoring to ride a horse.

Ever since he moved into Fucheng, Yu brother asked Xie Ning "when will he go home?" Xie Ning felt very sorry for his son.

Since Brother Yu was born, he has been promoted with his two fathers, and there has never been a stable home in his childhood life.

So Xie Ning didn't hold his son on the way, and even rode his horse to lead Yu brother. The family was like an autumn tour.

Brother Yu was really sitting on the back of the big white horse, leaning softly in his father's arms, while Zhou Jinnian, the head of the family, was sitting in the carriage...

Xie Ning was fully armed and tied his son in front of him with a piece of long cloth. Both himself and his son's faces were covered with a layer of white gauze to prevent sand and dust.

Brother Yu waved his little hand, and the white gauze swayed in the wind. After playing for a while, he raised his head and said to Xie Ning, "Daddy, I don't want to wear one."

Xie Ning grabbed his little hand to hold the rein, "Grab it well, you can go back to the carriage if you don't wear it."

"Huh!" Brother Yu will lose his temper again.

"If you don't wear this, there will be sand in your mouth for a while, and they will make you unable to eat meat."

Brother Yu was curious, "Why?"

Xie Ning just made up, "Because they want to eat, they just get in when they see someone with their mouth open, and eat the meat in their belly."

Brother Yu took a deep breath, pouting and holding his breath.

Xie Ning snickered. As long as Brother Yu’s little mouth was awake, he would babble. The three words'why' are just like a catch phrase.

On the road, whenever it was near dusk, Brother Yu could ride a horse to see these unfamiliar areas, desolate and prosperous.

As long as the fathers are by Brother Yu, no matter how desolate he is, he won't be afraid of no matter how prosperous he is.

The five-year-old baby has a very rich and powerful heart.

...

After entering Beijing, the family was temporarily placed in the official residence, a collective yard near the walls of the imperial palace.

Ownership of the residences still belongs to the official family. Officials only have the right of residence, and the official residence must be removed.

The five-year salary of Zhou Jinian was not enough to buy real estate in the capital, but his husband Xie Ning did.

On this day, Zhou Jinnian returned from the official report, waiting for the holy order, after entering the palace, the official card came down.

Zhou Jinnian returned to the house and put down his new purple official uniform and black black gauze hat.

Handing Brother Yu to Dad, Xie Ning returned to the house, walking briskly, hanging on Zhou Jinnian's back, groaning in his mouth.

Zhou Jinnian hugged him with one hand and pulled the collar with the other. He teased Fu Lang and said, "Brother Yu is five years old, and you are three years old."

"Huh..." Xie Ning pressed his mouth against her husband's shoulder, squeezing his mouth.

Xie Ning had nothing to do, tilted his head, saw the purple mansion on the table, whispered with a smile: "I want you to wear a big purple robe for one day in the Chinese New Year, but you don't want to, now it's all right, you have to wear it every day!"

Zhou Jinnian sighed and shook his head, bent over to let Xie Ning lie on his back, picked up husband Lang to sit on the wicker chair, and then Xie Ning naturally nestled in his arms, and the two squeezed together and lay down. .

Xie Ning rubbed up and saw his forehead sticking to her husband's neck, and asked lazily: "Has the official card come down?"

"It's still early." Not so fast.

"Oh." Xie Ning's tone was a little lost. It's not convenient to live here and do anything. You have to run outside to go to the toilet.

Zhou Jinnian naturally understood Ning Lang's depression, and he thought it was easy to solve, "Tomorrow, I will accompany you to see the yard, and I will buy it when I get it. The deed is under your name, so I don't have to wait for my official license to come down."

"Huh?" Xie Ning stood up on the wicker chair, lying on Zhou Jinnian's body, "Where can I write my name?"

"Why not?" Zhou Jinnian lay down, looking at Xie Ning's eyes with half-down.

From a bird's eye view, Xie Ning's upper eyelid is like a graceful line, and his eyelashes are poked like a teenager. When you look closer, there is a layer of fine hair on his face, like a child.

Xie Ning lay down again, not paying much attention.

Zhou Jinnian asked again: "Where do you want to buy?"

"I said that the imperial city is good, I want to buy a big one. After all these years, I have saved all the money I have earned. After careful calculation, only the house in Qingshui Town given to you by the court belongs to our family."

Indeed, none of their family likes luxury. Almost all the money they make has been saved. For these years, the food and clothing have been the salary of Zhou Jinnian.

"Good." Zhou Jinnian closed his eyes and relaxed, rubbing Fulang's waist with his palm through his clothes.

"Xuanwumen and Chongwenmen are convenient for you to go to court, but they are a bit more expensive."

Zhou Jinnian still closed his eyes, "Don't you like big yards? It's okay for me to ride up on horseback a little farther."

"Where is the horse tied? Doesn't that also require money?"

It is true that the more money-making people are, the more money they will save.

Ning Lang's words made Zhou Jinnian smile for a while with his eyes closed, and he opened his eyes and rubbed the back of Fu Lang's head. His tone was still teasing. "

"Hahahaha..." Xie Ning burst out laughing.

Speaking carefully, Xie Ning really bought a yard for her husband, but it was said by Zhou Jinian, a third-grade capital official, that it was particularly comedy.

Zhou Jinnian bent his mouth and continued to rest with his eyes closed.

Xie Ning thought it was funny and expressed compassion, "Anyway, Ben Fulang will buy the courtyard for you. What else do you want?"

He was proud and proud, as if he was the third grade official.

Zhou Jinnian pursed his mouth and grinned, "After two days, I will make an appointment with Mr. Guo and his eldest brother for dinner, so let's raise some living expenses for the husband."

"No problem! How much do you want?" Xie Ning promised.

"Three and two." Zhou Jinnian is not too much, after all, prices are so expensive at the foot of the imperial city.

"Give you six liang!" Xie Ning is addicted to acting, very generous, there is no such thing as a bit of chaos who can't bear to buy a horse.

Hearing the words, Zhou Jinnian sat up with his arms around Xiao Fu Lang, and looked carefully at the person's small chin.

This gave Xie Ning a complete embarrassment, so what is he doing so seriously? Xie Ning pursed her lips, and asked timidly, "What are you looking at..."

Zhou Jinnian likes to look at Ninglang, a little housewife. He raised a corner of his lips and replied in a scornful tone: "Look at the face of my nouveau riche."

"Hahahaha..." Xie Ning dropped his head, slammed into her husband's arms, and stumbled with a smile.

Zhou Jinnian was also infected by Fulang and lay down holding people and laughed together.

Brother Yu has a friend, so he didn't think about finding his father for the time being.

The little friend is the son of an official from the Ministry of Industry, Bao Zhenghao, two years older than him, seven years old, sturdy, holding a wooden bird.

The wood chip of the bird's wing was cut very thinly, and the bird's claws grew on a wooden stick. Xiao Zhenghao put his palms together and rubbed the stick, and the wooden bird flew into the air.

After being able to fly for a while, the two little guys Le Diandian chased on the ground.

Luhe followed behind and kept telling him, "Brother Yu, don't leave the compound."

When the wooden bird fell on the ground, the taller Xiao Zhenghao ran to pick it up, handed it to Brother Yu, and said, "Here you are!"

"Hehe..." Brother Yu happily pinched the wooden stick, turning his head down to look at the wooden bird.

When he was in Jianzhou Mansion, he had a lot of small toys. Grandpa bought them, and Uncle Wu Wei and Uncle Zhang Hai also bought them. Although it was for the face of his fathers, they were all very good. s things.

But children just like wonder, and the best they haven't seen are.

Xiao Zhenghao thought that his brother would not, so he took the wooden bird back anxiously.

The little brother started to pick up the wooden bird, Yu brother obediently let go, but turned his head to throw on Luhe's leg while pouting his mouth.

Luhe saw clearly, smiled and stroked his brother Yu's hair, squatted down and said, "Brother wants to teach you how to play, go and learn from your brother."

Brother Yu was holding his small claws, and his mouth was pouting so that he could hang an oil bottle.

No one has ever snatched anything from him, and he said he would give it to him, but he is too young to distinguish the act of ‘robbing’.

Xiao Zhenghao squeezed the wooden bird at a loss, and stood there blankly. He was also a poor baby. His mother was born with a dystocia. His father was a scholar, so he had to keep his deceased wife for one year. He was raised by the nurse until he was one year old. After the most difficult period, his father did not want to marry again. NS.

The little Bao Zhenghao has no mother's love or father's control. In this official residence, his little friends don't play with him either. Finally, a beautiful little brother came, Pi Diandian followed him, very fond of the small wooden tools his father made, but he also messed up.

Luhe stretched out his hand towards Xiao Zhenghao, "Come here."

Xiao Zhenghao hesitated, he was afraid that Luhe would scold him and rob him like the mothers of those little friends before.

Luhe picked up Brother Yu and walked two steps towards Xiao Zhenghao, who couldn't help but back two small steps.

Brother Yu's little stubborn temper came, holding on to Aunt Luhe tightly, just unwilling to turn around to face the little brother.

Luhe loves her little master again, and is funny, the doll's little temper is so cute.

"Brother Zhenghao wants to teach you how to fly wooden birds, Brother Yu, look at it." Luhe stretched out his hand and scratched Xiao Zhenghao's face, "You show me, my brother can't play."

Xiao Zhenghao hurriedly walked around behind Luhe, facing Brother Yu, rubbing the wooden stick, and the wooden bird flew.

Luhe let go of Brother Yu and coaxed, "Go try."

Xiaozheng Haobaba was about to run to pick up the wooden bird, and was gently embraced by Luhe, "Let my brother pick it up, one person picks it up once."

Xiaozheng shrank into Luhe's arms and couldn't help but yelled, "Mother..."

Luhe quickly let go of the children. She thought that Xiao Zhenghao's mother was here, and she was an official wife anyway. If she saw her son being hugged by a servant, don't make trouble to Ning Ye, then it would be troublesome.

I looked around and found that there was no one in the empty courtyard except the wall and door. Luhe stood up and bent over and asked, "Did you see your mother?"

Xiao Zhenghao shook his head, "They said I don't have a mother, and my mother is dead."

Luhe blinked and touched Xiao Zhenghao's face apologetically, not knowing what to say.

Brother Yu has picked up the wooden bird and returned, "Auntie, look at me!"

"Okay, look at you." Luhe squatted down and looked at Brother Yu with Xiao Zhenghao.

Brother Yu put his palms together and straightened the wooden stick in his palm. As soon as the two small palms were rubbed up and down, the wooden bird swiveled out, turned low in the air twice, and fell to the ground.

This time, Xiao Zhenghao ran to pick it up, and the two children had fun together again.

When Xie Ning and her husband were tired enough, they came out and wanted to take their son to the street to buy snacks. Seeing that their little friends played so well, they went to inform the Bao family and took them to the street together.

Zhou Jinnian protected Xie Ning, Xie Ning led his son, Luhe led Xiao Zhenghao, Stone followed at the end, and the group entered Luoguxiang.

On the streets of the capital, you can see from the clothes and the entourage behind you after two steps.

Xie Ning was no longer the little bun who entered the city for the first time. He straightened his waist and walked slowly and slowly. He had the aura of an official.

The temperament of Xiao Tu Baozi was inherited by his son Yu Ge. He asked his father what he meant, everything was strange, everything smelled, and he wanted to taste everything.

The capital city is not like the capital city of Jianzhou. There are many people in the capital city, which seems to be crowded between buildings.

There were so many people on the street that Xie Ning had no choice but to pick up the little man, not allowing him to look around.

Luhe also took the opportunity to hold Xiao Zhenghao in his arms.

After strolling around, Xie Ning pointed to a big restaurant and said, "Sorrowful year, eat roast duck."

When the two of them moved to the capital city of Yuezhou, the husband took him to eat roast duck, and he was born with the idea of ​​opening a grilled fish shop.

Zhou Jinnian nodded and headed towards Jinling Roast Duck.

Nowadays, the family has a rich family. The couple of Zhou Laosan went to the suburbs of the city to worship Buddha with Qianghuo early in the morning. At this moment, I don't know where to enjoy the delicious food.

It is still the lobby on the first floor, and there is no private room. I ordered the signature roast duck, Kung Pao hare, fried melon fillet, jade bamboo shoots and fern, as well as glutinous rice and lotus root that Brother Yu likes to eat, and two little dolls a bowl of egg custard.

As soon as the dishes were on the table, Xie Ning wrapped the roast duck and fed it to his son. Brother Yu pouted and chewed, his fleshy little cheeks bulging.

Zhou Jinnian rolled full duck meat to feed husband Lang, for fear that there was no oil and water in his Ning Lang belly.

Xie Ning was stuffed with a big mouthful and pressed Zhou Jinnian with his elbow, "Don't control yourself."

Zhou Jinnian didn't care, took the chopsticks and tasted the Kung Pao Hare. The taste was slightly spicy, and the meat was tender and fragrant.

Xiao Zhenghao is a little strange to everyone at the table, except for his younger brother, but his little brother doesn't care about his little brother because of his fragrant food.

Luhe sat next to him, rolled the roast duck and handed it to him, "I feed you, or do you want to eat it yourself?"

Xiao Zhenghao immediately opened his mouth and was fed by Luhe. The child has no time to think about anything before eating.

The egg custard was eaten by two little guys holding spoons in their own hands, two little guys, three adults, a table of dishes was not wasted.

When returning, the group of people took a detour and walked back from another street. Halfway through the way, the two little guys were sleepy when they were full, just like a pig.

In the end, Luhe held Xiao Zhenghao and sent it to his home. The little guy's father Bao Xing personally greeted him. Bao Xing's long eyebrows and eyes were very correct.

The next day, Xiao Zhenghao went to the door again, holding a nine-chain in his hand, and his father told him to send it to Brother Yu.

Zhou Jinnian and Xie Ning went out to buy a yard, leaving only Luhe with the two little guys to play in the yard of the official residence.

After that, every day, Luhe sent Xiao Zhenghao home, one to two, and he could talk to Bao Xing.

In the end, the yard bought in Beijing really had Xie Ning's name written on it, because Zhou Jinnian's official license plate did not come down, but the door plaque still had the word "Zhou Fu" hung on it.

After five years of struggle, the Zhou family finally moved into a mansion under their own name.

The Zhou Mansion was bought in Jian’an Fang outside the Donghua Gate in the outer city of Beijing. In addition to the eighteen rooms where people can live, there are also stables, stoves, warehouses and back rooms for servants.

On the day of housewarming, in addition to Xie Yao, Cao Liang of the Dali Temple, Deng Shiqiang of the Criminal Department, and Guo Tao of the Ministry of Industry all prepared Bo Lilai to congratulate them.

The household is in charge of wealth, and Zhou Jinnian was appointed by Emperor Qingyuan Zuo Shilang, which means that this person has a name in Emperor Qingyuan!

And they had friendships before, they were officials in Beijing, and they had many friends and many paths.

This was considered a family dinner, so the family was at the same table with several adults, including Brother Yu of course.

Brother Yu still had a vague impression of his uncle Xie Yao, but Xie Yao loved him so much that he was willing to get close.

At this moment, he was sitting on his uncle's lap and wanted to eat something, so his uncle gave him a clip.

Cao Liang drank a cup of sweet-scented osmanthus wine and said with a smile: "Since Jianzhou, I have never forgotten your grilled fish, but I finally ate it again today."

Zhou Jinnian advised dishes.

Guo Tao was a little curious, "Master Zhou served as the prefect of Jianzhou for two years. I never heard that there is a serious case that requires you to investigate and deal with Dali Temple. How did Master Cao know Master Zhou?"

"It's no wonder you don't know. Brother Deng and I have a secret order to reverse the case for Concubine Ying's brother. The case ended smoothly and quickly, so it didn't make a big deal."

"So that's the case." Guo Tao is also well versed in the way of being an official, so he no longer asks more, but said to Zhou Jinnian with some envy: "Master Zhou is really a genius of heaven, and he is also good at handling cases."

Nowadays, except for the different departments, Master Zhou is on the same level as him. It took him ten years in Beijing to secure his position as the assistant minister of the Ministry of Engineering.

Cao Lianglang laughed and raised a glass to Guo Tao. "Master Guo is a good man in flood prevention. It is also a happy event to give a house to the sage. I will toast Master Guo."

Guo Tao drank a cup, osmanthus wine does not burn the throat, it does not hurt to drink more, and refilled a cup of Jing Zhou Ji Nian.

"Master Zhou is on the same footing, and Shi Lang recommends in every possible way. I heard that Concubine Ying Gong is also very interested in winning. Brother Zhou has a smooth career. Don't forget us, Wu Yue, who are in the same boat."

Guo Tao was straightforward, and after a few glasses of wine, all he knew and heard was confided.

Cao Liang and Deng Shiqiang were more careful in their minds, and they only listened to a few words.

These words made Zhou Jinnian very vigilant. Huang Shilang was Huang Dunyi. Huang Dunyi sent him to Nanyu County, a remote rural area, but tried to protect him from entering Beijing. What does this mean?

And Yingfei? This Qu Yingying is a harem girl, what does she want to do?

Are these two working together? If they really work together, what are these two people looking for?
