After Yin or walked away, Mrs. Yin glared at her granddaughters, and said: "From now on, you are not allowed to say such things in front of Qilang. It was so hard for him to make a friend."
"That depends on whether this friend is sincere or not?" Sister Yin said.
Madam Yin said expressionlessly: "Whether it is true or false, as long as the other party is not too much, I am willing to satisfy him."
"Grandmother..."
Mrs. Yin patted her thigh and said in anger: "How many years do you have left for your brother? He has never made friends, what's wrong with letting him live happily for a few years now?"
Sister Yin stopped talking now.
Madam Yin supported her forehead and said: "I'm a little dizzy now, I can't eat anything, don't spoil your appetite, you sisters go and eat by yourself."
Sister Yin glanced at the second and third younger sisters, and quickly asked, "Grandmother, don't you wait for father to come back for dinner?"
"Your father was impeached and his salary has been cut for three months. His Majesty was very angry and sent him on a business trip. He left in the morning. It is estimated that he will not come back until January or February."
Sister Yin was stunned, "Father is Jing Zhaoyin, how could he leave Beijing?"
"Master Jing Zhaoyin has been acting as an agent for the time being," Mrs. Yin glared at them and said, "This is all caused by the three of you sisters!"
Sister Yin sat down on the chair and murmured: "Impossible, we didn't do anything serious. In previous years, some people stepped on young crops on horseback, and at most they just hit a few boards..."
At this time, the emperor had just received the message sent back from the post station, Gu Zhong took it and glanced at the emperor, the emperor nodded slightly, then opened it, glanced at it, bowed and said: "Your Majesty, Lord Yin has diverted to the west. "
Gu Zhong spread out the note for the emperor to glance at, the emperor nodded slightly, and Gu Zhong burned it on the spot.
After correcting the notes in his hand, the emperor put down his pen and said: "With the footsteps of keeping the festival, it takes less than half a month to arrive, but the marching speed is slow, and with the addition of troops, it will take at least two months."
The emperor did the math, "October will be in two months..."
The Queen Mother's birthday has just passed.
The emperor lowered his eyes to think, got up and said, "Let's go, let's take a walk in the Queen's Palace."
"yes."
Outside the hall, the sky is full of sunlight, and the sky is orange-red, which is indifferent and suitable. The clouds are evenly shaped into various shapes, which is really beautiful.
The emperor couldn't help but stop and look up at Yun for a while.
Man Bao was also looking up at the clouds at the door of the house, knowing that the carriage stopped in front of her, she looked back from the sky, looked at the two people who jumped out of the car and asked, "Why have you been taking so long? I thought you were absconding in fear of crime." It's over."
Bai Shan: "He absconded in fear of crime, why should I escape with him?"
"Because you are an accomplice!"
Bai Shan came in with a book basket and said, "Impossible, it's just that I forgot the time."
Man Bao said: "I believe you, but maybe the husband doesn't believe it very much."
Bai Erlang took a deep breath and said, "I've discussed it with Shanbao, we're going to come up with a trick, and I'll go into the study and kneel down to Mr.
"That's probably impossible," Man Bao said, "Mr. is in the yard right now. If you want to kneel, you have to kneel in the yard."
Bai Erlang opened his mouth wide, turned his head to look at Bai Shan.
Bai Shan patted him on the shoulder and said, "Anyway, the sun is not so hot now, there is only the setting sun, and there is nothing wrong with it except a little bit of the earth."
After thinking about it seriously, Man Bao gave him an idea, "Don't kneel on the bluestone slab for a while, you kneel on the mud, although there will be some small stones, but it is actually easier to kneel on than the bluestone slab, the bluestone slab is too hard."
"Thinking about it this way, it seems that kneeling in the courtyard is better than kneeling in the study." Bai Shan and Man Bao went to the second courtyard side by side while talking, leaving only Bai Erlang stunned like a weed ravaged by the wind. .
After entering the Second Courtyard, Man Bao remembered something, "By the way, your eldest brother is also here, and he bowed to thank you as soon as he came, and said thank you for his supervision and education, and also said that he would tell your father about it. "
Bai Shan looked back at him sympathetically and said, "It's over, the pocket money you just recovered will be gone again."
Bai Erlang was about to burst into tears.
Because they had a small farm before, and the income was not bad, Master Bai saw that the three children were so vicious, and they all went to study in Yizhou City, and even competed with him for business, and Bai Shan and Man Bao earned their own money. The money was spent on studying, so Master Bai followed the example of the two of them and asked Bai Erlang to pay for his own expenses. All the pocket money and living and accommodation expenses were gone.
But at that time, Bai Erlang didn't care too much, because he made a lot of money and didn't spend much.
No matter how high the consumption in Yizhou City is, it is within his tolerance.
But it’s different when you arrive in the capital. Not to mention the food here, the living here is several times more expensive than Yizhou city.
Master Bai also felt that it was not good for the youngest son to bear such a great pressure. In addition, the youngest son can go to the sixth school, so he can wake up with a smile when he sleeps.
The eldest son is also studying in the capital, and the difference between the two children must not be too large, otherwise the children will feel uncomfortable when they find out.
So Master Bai restored Bai Erlang's board and lodging expenses and pocket money with a wave of his hand, but the pocket money was a little less than Bai Dalang's.
Master Bai also told Bai Erlang directly, one reason is that he is younger and has fewer occasions to socialize than his elder brother; secondly, he has the income from a small farm, but his elder brother does not.
But even though it was less than Bai Dalang's, that amount of money was still quite a lot, especially since Master Bai gave it for three months at a time, that amount was even more substantial.
When Bai Erlang heard it, his heart ached.
When he walked to the backyard and saw Mr. and elder brother who were drinking tea at the stone table in the yard, they knelt on the ground with one knee, and followed Man Bao's suggestion to kneel on the muddy ground. He felt it carefully, except for a small The stone is indeed much softer than kneeling on a bluestone slab.
Mr. Zhuang and Bai Dalang turned to look at him together.
Bai Erlang said with a bitter face: "Sir, brother, I know I was wrong."
Bai Dalang glanced at Mr. Zhuang, but said nothing.
Mr. Zhuang put down his teacup and asked, "What's wrong?"
"I shouldn't bet on football, even if it's a game, I shouldn't bet on it."
Mr. Zhuang snorted coldly and said, "Isn't it a matter of elegance now?"
Bai Erlang lowered his head deeply.
Mr. Zhuang said: "What does the emperor like? The emperor still likes cockfights. Do you want to go to cockfights too? Do you know how many families were ruined because of cockfights? No, do you still want this country?"
Man Bao couldn't help muttering, "This emperor is too bad, why did he do all kinds of bad things? He ruined the folk atmosphere..."
Mr. Zhuang glared at Man Bao and said, "Shut up, although the imperial court does not limit the people's mouths, but you can't say that the emperor knows?"
"Why, didn't you say that all peoples can advise His Majesty?"
"Because you can't see the emperor, your admonition will be heard by his minions first. He may listen to your advice, but his minions may not be happy to hear it, not to mention that you are not a famous person, not even a scholar. , from now on, don’t say such things outside.”
Man Bao responded in a low voice, "Okay, sir, I'll take note."
