In the early morning of the next day, Aunt Wang got up early and heard that Jin Yi rested in Zhaoyan's room last night. She moved her heart and led the two maids to Zhaoyan's courtyard.
When Aunt Wang arrives, the father and son will wash up.
Concubine Wang asked An, and said to Jin Yi, "Now the weather is getting warmer, and the quilts covered and covered in winter are too thick. I was worried that Yan'er would not be comfortable sleeping, so I came to see if the maids were there. Replace in time."
Jin Yi said: "Not thick, I fell asleep last night and felt just right."
Zhao Yan said: "It has already been changed. A few days ago, Uncle Ming asked Sister Liu Xing to help me change it."
"Just change it." Concubine Wang smiled and asked again, "Are you going to have breakfast at the old lady's place?"
"I'll go to the old lady's for lunch later."
Aunt Wang said happily, "If you don't dislike it, why don't you go to my place for breakfast? I cooked seafood porridge with a slow fire last night, and the fresh vegetable sprouts are already mixed."
Jin Yi thought for a while and agreed. Zhao Yan still went to the old lady, and before leaving, he said to his father, "Dad, you should go to our place earlier!"
Jin Yi and Concubine Wang went to Concubine Wang's residence together. The porridge and vegetables were served one by one. Concubine Wang served them diligently. Jin Yi said, "Don't be too busy, I am used to eating by myself in the army."
Aunt Wang sat down to accompany her. After drinking a few mouthfuls of porridge, he asked tentatively, "Don't you blame the concubine for the concubine's donation to Tanzhou at the invitation of the Seventh Princess?"
Jin Yi said, "Why should I blame you for this?"
Aunt Wang put down the bowl and sighed, looking a little sad, "Because of this, the concubine offended many people in the mansion."
"How?"
Concubine Wang was clever and added and deleted what she said back to the old lady that day, so that Jin frowned frequently. After she finished talking, she said, "The old lady must be an unreasonable person. You can discuss with her if you have anything."
Concubine Wang couldn't hear what Jin Yi was thinking, and she felt uneasy in her heart, her mind changed, and she said: "Fuzhong donates money, so I have to save it in the next year. My concubine reduced her share a bit, but , Young Master Ming, he…”
"How is he?" Jin Yi stopped the chopsticks.
Concubine Wang said: "A man came here a few years ago, claiming to be a friend of the master, and he asked to borrow 30,000 taels in cash. Young Master Ming came to his concubine to pay the money, but the concubine did not agree. First, the amount was too large. Second, that Mr. Fan doesn't usually communicate with our mansion, and when you're not here to borrow money, I don't know what his origins are..."
Mr. Fan? Could it be Fan Zhi? Jin Yi thought to himself, no wonder Fan Zhi, who has never been flattering, came to toast his wine and thank him at the banquet last night. He thought he was thanking himself for the country and the people. It seemed that there was another reason.
Thinking of this, Jin Yi asked, "How will this matter be resolved later?"
Concubine Wang replied, "My concubine refused to pay, but Young Master Ming seemed to have eaten the scales, insisting that Mr. Fan is the best friend of the master, and blaming the concubine. He is the principal, and the concubine should not disobey. , but since the old lady let the concubine temporarily manage the house, the concubine has offended the son of Ming, and she should take the husband as the most important thing. The money, the concubine did not pay. I heard that the son took his own dowry money. Lord, forgive the concubine Shen said bluntly, that day our mansion sent a lot of dowry to the past, and the dowry there was less than half. Although this dowry belongs to Ming Gongzi temporarily, but without your consent, he borrowed it from someone of unknown origin. Man, it really is…”
Jin Yi lost his appetite and said, "I already understand this matter. You don't need to say more. I'm full, you can eat it yourself."
After speaking, Jin Soi got up and left.
In Fang Man Court, Fu Ming is reading a tabloid that is popular in the market today. This tabloid is made up by some people who seem to have some background and mixes true and false news about the DPRK and China. It is sold every morning at no cost. How long will it take to sell out.
There are several articles in today's tabloids about Jin Yihui's return to the DPRK yesterday. Even what the emperor said at the banquet, Jin Yihui wrote everything in a decent manner. It seems to be true. In addition, the poem recited by the prince is also written on it.
After Fu Ming finished reading it, he felt that the poem should have been written by the prince. The prince is good at prose, and his poems and poems are all excellent. He once published a book "Leading the Wind", which was widely circulated among the people for a while. Fu Ming also read it and had an understanding of the prince's poetry style. Moreover, this poem is not bad, and the general literate person can't write it.
When the army triumphs, the prince recites poems and congratulations. This is human nature. Fu Ming finished reading the poem again, but he couldn't help sighing in his heart, and laughed out loud.
The laughter fell into the ears of Jin Yi who just stepped into the door, Jin Yi asked, "What's so funny?"
Fu Ming hurriedly put down the tabloid and got up to greet him, and replied, "I read the poem of the prince last night." Then he took the newspaper to Jin Yi.
Jin Yi took over the browsing and said, "It is indeed the song that the prince recited last night. What's the problem?"
Jin Yi's memory is amazing, but he doesn't understand it when he remembers it. Fu Ming said: "On the surface of this poem, it is indeed a tribute to virtue. But the prince's use of the scriptures is like salt into water, and there is no trace. If you don't taste it deeply, I'm afraid it will be difficult to understand the true meaning of it. ."
"How to say?"
"Using Han Wu to describe today's sages, and using Huo Piao to Yu Ye, not to mention that this time the master is quelling internal strife rather than defending against foreign enemies, there is actually a lot of writing about his chosen deeds. , but the twists and turns lead to the end of one who made an edict to sin against oneself, and one who died young, the prince is this - an innuendo that martial arts is not suitable for governing the country, and martial arts are all sinners."
After Jin Yi heard the words, he read the long poem carefully, put down the tabloid, and sighed softly: "Prince Shang Wen hates martial arts, it's not surprising that he has always been like this."
Fu Ming nodded and said, "I shouldn't have talked about the affairs of the imperial court, but this time I'm breaking the rules."
Jin Yi shook his head, remembering why he came here, and asked, "Brother Wen Su came to the house to borrow money for emergency. Did you lend him your own money?"
"Well." Fu Ming replied, "The mansion has its own rules for doing things, so I have to do it."
Seeing that Fu Ming didn't want to say more, Jin Yi didn't want to investigate further. He probably knew the ins and outs of the matter, so he just asked if he had paid it back.
"It has been fully returned a few days ago."
Jin Yidao: "Brother Wen Su is the one who keeps his promise. This time, thanks to you."
Fu Ming shook his head and smiled: "This is what I should have done."
When Jin Yi heard the words, his heart fluttered slightly: Is it what he should have done to relieve his friend's urgent needs? Why? If he really takes Fu Ming as his close relative, Fu Ming will bear it without shame. But think about how much you have done before? How did Fu Ming deal with people after he entered the government
Gradually, Jin Yi lost his mind. All kinds of past events, which had been ignored by him, came to my mind one by one.
"Father?"
Fu Ming's soft cry awakened Jin Yi, he came back to his senses, looked at Fu Ming's uneasy gaze, reached out his hand unconsciously, and gently stroked his fair and handsome face, Fu Ming was stunned, almost even breathing All hold.
Jin Yi's hand touched him a little and then withdrew, "I will treat you well in the future." He said a few words and left, striding forward, but his body didn't seem so stable.
After a long time, Fu Ming raised his hand and touched his cheek, only to feel that his fingertips were abnormally warm.
Jin Yi triumphed, and should have prepared a banquet, but the old lady knew that her grandson didn't like to be busy, and only close relatives gathered together to eat at a table, which was the warmest thing, and the old lady enjoyed it very much.
When Jin Yi took his seat, he saw the old lady, Ren Lan, and Zhao Yan beside him. They were indeed family members connected by flesh and blood, but there was no Fu Ming.
The old lady is not called Fu Ming, is it because she doesn't recognize him, doesn't like him, or because of herself? She thought that she still did not regard Fu Ming as her wife, so she excluded him on such occasions
Seeing that Jin Yi seemed to be a little out of his mind, the old lady asked, "Long borrow, isn't the food to your taste? Or do you have something urgent to do?"
Jin Yi shook his head and suppressed his mood to taste the reunion after a long absence with everyone.
When drinking tea after dinner, the old lady mentioned that Aunt Wang had deducted money from people a few years ago, and said: "She is older now and has a big heart. I must have said a lot in front of you, you need to be clear about what What to believe and what not to believe."
Jin Yi nodded and said, "The old lady is right, my grandson understands." Then he mentioned Fan Zhi's coming to borrow money.
The old lady frowned and said, "Is there anything else? I don't even know."
Jin Yi said: "It's Wang's family right now, so it shouldn't be convenient for Brother Ming to mention it to you directly. Besides, brother Wen Su is in an emergency and can't wait."
The old lady sighed, "Ningxue was smart and well-behaved when she was a child, and she was loyal to you. I saw that she was a reliable person. I was like a year old, so I taught her how to manage the house and trust her. Who would have guessed that she He is becoming more and more indecent, making assertions, short-sighted, and doing things that are not on the table. Now it seems that the right of this family should be taken back."
"My grandson thinks this should be the case. Although it's a matter of the inner court, it has a lot of implications, and she can't be allowed to act so stingy."
"Who do you think can take care of this family? I'm really old, and I have more than my heart but not enough strength."
Jin Yidao: "Little sister Renlan is getting older, and she must have the ability to manage the family when she gets married. The old lady should promote her."
The old lady nodded and smiled and said, "You are such a caring brother, and I have this plan too, but Laner is always going to get married. I taught her how to do it now that she is gone? I have to teach her more. One, it's good to teach together."
Jin Yi said: "Is the old lady interested in someone?"
"Well." The old lady didn't know who it was, but asked, "What do you think it is? Who else is suitable?"
Jin Yi said: "the old lady decides it's fine."
"Then the new moon. I think she is very good, she knows the current affairs better than Ningxue, and she has not much selfishness."
Although Jin Yi was slightly surprised, he thought about it and said, "That's fine. She has a place in this family, so I'm relieved."
"If you really can't be relieved and lift her up, who can say anything? Sirou entrusted her to you, don't you understand what she means?"
"The old lady knows that when Sirou was here, we had planned to marry the girl Xinyue to a friend of mine. Xinyue refused to marry after Sirou left, so how can my grandson... She is willing to stay in the mansion. , we don't treat her badly, provide her with food and clothing, and give her a place, that's all we can do."
"Forget it, that's it." The old lady said, "During your absence, although Brother Ming ignored the family, he was very interested in me, Lan'er and Yan'er. I think that child is also a good boy. Real people, you... think about it for yourself."
Jin Yi replied: "My grandson knows." After condensing for a moment, he said, "In the future, when the old lady wants to get together with her family, she might as well let Xinyue and Ming brother come together."
Hearing this, the old lady was a little stunned, and then smiled: "Very good, very good."
