The Eve of Chapter 864 (Thanks to Guyu Midnight for the monthly ticket~)
Sister-in-law Li, who had been cocooning in bed for half the night, finally fell asleep at dawn, but this sleep was too unreliable. Somewhat.
As soon as Brother Li got up in the morning, she woke up too.
"You can sleep a little longer. I heard that you were tossing and turning last night. You must not have slept well."
Brother Li's words directly woke up Sister-in-law Li. Sitting on the bed with her hair loose, she looked at Brother Li who was getting dressed. After thinking for a few moments, he spoke: "That's it. I didn't want to tell you, but after all, we live in the same village, Yueniang." It’s true that I watched her grow up, and she is a good child.”
After hearing this, Brother Li paused for a moment before continuing to tie the belt of his coat.
“Is it the third to last household at the end of the village?
I vaguely remember that when we used to collect medicinal materials, there seemed to be a clever little girl from that house who called Yueniang.”
"Erlang remembers clearly, yes, this is the family.
This Yueniang is not an easy one. When she was five years old, her mother-in-law was in poor health after giving birth to her brother. I went within two years.
Although the mother-in-law whom Aye married was not a bad person, the stepmother later had another child with her Aye.
Her brother is a son of a bitch after all, and she, Aye, can still see it.
She is just a little girl without a mother. If Mrs. Sun hadn't been kind and took her granddaughter into consideration, she wouldn't have been able to learn to pack medicinal materials with me. "
After saying this, Li Ersao looked up and looked at Li Erlang: "Erlang, why don't you go to Sanniang and talk to Yueniang about allocating one of the apprenticeships to Yueniang?
The child Yueniang can definitely learn well, at least give her a way out. ”
Brother Li, who had already put on his clothes, straightened out the hem of his clothes. Then he looked at Sister-in-law Li and said, "Lanniang, we can't help you with this.
Even if Sanniang cares about me, After accepting this matter on face, what will other families in the village think after having Yueniang as an example?
How can we help if other people come to visit their little girl?
It would be a good thing for Sanniang's maternity hall to recruit apprentices, but if we try to do it from behind, Sanniang will suffer the consequences.
Lanniang, Sanniang. My mother is an official. If you don’t do well as an official, you will not only be punished but will be demoted. In serious cases, you will be killed.”
After rejecting Sister-in-law Li's request, Brother Li took a breath and said, "Tell Grandma Sun and just ask Yueniang to sign up for the exam.
Yue Niang is very skillful, and this recruitment of apprentices is not a matter of looking at it. Whether you are literate or not is just like the previous assessment when you helped Sanniang recruit a stable wife. It depends on character and talent.
When a qualified person enters the door, there will naturally be someone to look after her. Teaching literacy.
Even if the little girl in the city has an advantage, this advantage is not all. ”
After saying this, Brother Li turned around and walked towards the door, opening the door. , before leaving, Brother Li turned around and warned Sister-in-law Li again: "Lanniang, don't go to Sanniang about this matter.
Just listen to me, let any little girl among them just go and sign up if she wants to. "
What Brother Li said was reasonable, but Sister-in-law Li still felt uncomfortable after hearing it.
People in Chang'an City have already started their busy day, and The post station on the official road outside Chang'an City is also bustling with people.
There are people everywhere inside and outside the inn shared by officials and people. There are cattle, horses, pigs, sheep, and camels in the livestock sheds.
Tang Mingguang (Tang Mingyue's eldest brother, appeared in Chapter 850) is a sleepy person. He was awakened by the movement of the caravan moving goods in the post station at the fourth watch.
When he got up and walked to the window, he saw the courtyard of the inn was brightly lit, and the stewards of each caravan were directing people to carefully carry the cargo boxes outside. He was not surprised. When Gein arrived at this post station in the middle of the afternoon yesterday, he heard the postmaster who was in charge of the post station say: "Looking at you guys, you also have a small amount of money. Why don't you just book the one on the second floor next to it?" The three rooms are occupied
Unless I want to make more money, there are also several caravans living in this post, and they have to move their goods outside in the middle of the night to catch up. Let's go to Chang'an at dawn, so that we can catch up with the city gate early tomorrow.
In this way, you can live closer to each other, and you can make less noise and sleep more. "
Tang Mingguang took advantage of the situation and chatted with the postmaster for a while. Not only did he choose the room at the back of the second floor, he also gave him a few more taels of silver and asked the postmaster to find someone to cook a few buckets of hot water. Water comes.
"Aye?"
Tang Mingguang's eldest son, Tang Heping, half sat up on the bed with sleepy eyes. He saw Tang Mingguang standing by the window and called him.
"Are you woken up?
There is a caravan transporting goods outside. It's not time for us to get up yet. Brother Ping, please lie down and sleep for a while."
< br>Even though the Tang family wanted to sleep a little longer, the inn was so noisy that they really couldn't sleep well.
In this way, the Tang family all got up and washed together, started to pack their suitcases, and prepared to check out of the hotel and follow the caravan to Chang'an.
“Aye, I wonder if Brother De (son of Tang Mingyue) still recognizes me?”
“Haha, Brother De must not recognize you, he left I was just a little boy when I was young.”
After dawn, the first caravan had already started, heading up the official road towards Chang’an City.
Tang Mingxing (Tang Mingyue's second brother) counted the number of his own carriages, and also counted the number of people with the stewards who came with him, and then came to Tang Mingguang.
"Brother, everyone is here, shall we set off?"
Tang Mingguang stroked his beard, nodded, and then asked the postman standing aside: "Excuse me, sir, this post is far away from Chang'an How far is the city?
I wonder if we can enter the city before noon?"
"That's a good question, Mr. Lang, just follow the caravan. The city of Chang'an is large and has been expanded in recent years. The three outer cities are only thirty miles away from our station.
There have been many people in Chang'an in the past few years. Can you enter the city before the city gate is closed? That’s pretty good.”
Even though he had made an estimate in his mind before, Tang Mingguang was still a little surprised when he heard the postman say that it would be good if he could enter the city before dark.
"It seems that I still don't know much about the prosperity of Chang'an City."
The postman saw the surprise and confusion on Tang Mingguang's face, and he explained casually He stood up and said, "Lang Jun must have not been to Chang'an for a long time. Chang'an City has been really prosperous in recent years.
Not only those of you from the south, but also those from further south, and those from the west," Yi The soldier raised his hand and pointed to the dozen camels aside, "There are many more people going to the Western Regions to do business. Not only our people are going, but there are also people from there.
Hurry up. , if you walk slowly on the road and get stuck outside the city gate, you will have to go to the other three cities to find a place to stay.
The three outer cities are not as spacious as our inn, and the price is also much more expensive. In terms of safety, there will inevitably be no petty theft. ”
Tang Mingguang bowed his hands to the postman, thanked them for their warnings and suggestions, waved his hand, and asked the driver to quickly control the horse to the official road.
