Chapter 748 Arrival at the Imperial City
"Nothing." Jiang Fubao didn't say anything, mainly because he was afraid of scaring Xue Huan.
I didn't expect that Sun Guangzong actually died. He was so bold that he killed people just for robbing money. It was really hateful. I thought he was just stupid and greedy, but I didn't expect him to be so bad.
Looking down, Jiang Fubao's mouth was also open.
Jiang Sanhe was exiled to Beiguan, and her mother-in-law was exiled with her.
My goodness, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are going to have to go through a lot of difficulties.
Beiguan is far and cold. If you are not careful on the way, you may freeze to death, starve to death, or die of illness or fall.
Very few people can get there alive, it all depends on luck.
The letter also said that Bu Jiu's brother had asked about her family.
The corners of Jiang Fubao's mouth curled up slightly.
Brother Bujiu is the most meticulous person. Whenever he encounters something related to her family, he always goes to her house first. Jiang Fubao dares to believe that if the grandfather says that he wants to save Sun Guangzong's life, Brother Bujiu will even risk being dismissed from office to help her family.
She was right.
Before Meng Bujiu went to the Jiang family, he was indeed struggling with this matter. He originally just wanted the Jiang family to choose a way for Sun Guangzong to die, but if the Jiang family really begged him, he would probably agree in the blink of an eye.
He has always been soft-hearted towards the Jiang family.
It is obvious that Jiang Tongmu knows him best, otherwise he would not have stood up and said those words.
I'm just afraid that my grandparents will really go and ask Meng Bujiu for help, which will put him in a difficult position.
Fortunately, the old couple were very rational and did not harm Meng Bujiu for the sake of their brainless daughter.
"Fubao, Happy New Year. Take good care of yourself and don't get sick." Xue Huan had finished peeling the peanuts. She quietly walked to Jiang Fubao and read the last sentence of the letter.
"Bad girl, if you peek at my letter again, I will beat you with a hundred sticks." Jiang Fubao pretended to scare her.
"Hehe, I was wrong, Miss, please don't hit me, I'm scared, I'm willing to warm your bed to atone for my sin."
Xue Huan is playing with the treasure.
The winter in Canghai is not too cold, just like the autumn in Lianshan Town, so there is actually no need to warm the quilt.
But she slept in the same bed with Jiang Fubao and Pan Erya every night, so she said this.
"Okay, I'll punish you by making you warm my bed every day." Jiang Fubao was not angry, as there was no secret in the letter.
Xue Huan knew most of her affairs.
"What's the matter? Is Miss Xue Huan unhappy? Let me beat her up." Pan Erya came in with hot tea and said with a smile.
"Humph, Sister Erya is reluctant to beat me, but you just scare me."
Xue Huan stuck out her tongue and made a face.
"Xue Huan is about to reach the age of marriage. Will the young lady prepare a banquet for her then?" Pan Erya knew that her young lady loved Xue Huan the most.
"Of course, we won't invite anyone else, just people from our house, and the little girl that Xue Huan was good friends with. I remember she was serving beside the wife of the third young master of the Liu family. Was her name Huan'er or Huan'er? Xue Huan, don't you always go to play with her?"
Jiang Fubao looked at Xue Huan and asked.
"Her name is Huan'er. She was born in the same year as me. The wife of the Third Young Master of the Liu family dotes on her. We always go out for a walk together."
Xue Huan said sweetly.
"Yes, her name is Huan'er. Now I remember. Remember to invite her when the time comes. If the Liu family holds a wedding for her, you should also attend. You little stingy boy, don't forget to give her a gift." Jiang Fubao was always teaching Xue Huan how to behave in society.
"I know, miss. I know." Xue Huan nodded and went out with the peeled peanuts.
She had to personally watch the chef make peanut cheese to prevent the chef from stealing the peanuts she peeled. No one else was allowed to eat them because they belonged to the young lady.
Three days later, at the Canghai clinic, the craftsmen started working and the supervisors took their positions. Jiang Fubao and his party then left and set off for Jiangnan.
It’s a long way to go.
By the time we arrived in Jiangnan, half a month had passed.
"Miss, are we going to stay in an inn? Or?" After entering the city gate, Pan Shitou stopped the carriage and asked.
"No need, go find Aunt Yun. If she knew that I stayed in an inn when I came to Jiangnan, she would be sad and think that I had become estranged from her." Jiang Fubao shook his head.
"Okay, I'll go to Changshou Restaurant right away." Pan Shitou replied.
That night, Jiang Fubao stayed at Fang's house.
After playing with the servants for two days and helping with the consultation at the Changshou Restaurant for three days, she began to draw pictures and look for craftsmen.
With the help of the Fang family, there was no need to look for supervisors, and the craftsmen were quickly found. Jiang Fubao and his team set off to other places and opened more than a dozen shops in various places.
Don't go back.
The final destination was the Imperial City. We stopped and walked along the way, visited shops of all sizes, drew countless pictures, and finally arrived at the Imperial City in spring when everything came back to life.
The first time Jiang Fubao came to the imperial city, he stood at the city gate like a bumpkin with his mouth wide open.
The same is true for Pan Erya on the left and Xue Huan on the right.
The three bumpkins were only allowed to enter the city after being checked by the imperial city guards.
"Wow, miss, look, this guy's mouth can actually spit fire, is this a trick? It looks even more powerful than the tricks played by Jiangnan. And that mask is so scary."
When we arrived at the imperial city, it was almost dark.
The streets are still bustling.
Xue Huan chattered, pointed at the things in front of her, and asked questions here and there.
The local people from the imperial city who were passing by looked at them with disdain, thinking they were bumpkins from somewhere. However, after seeing Jiang Fubao's face, their expressions immediately changed.
Jiang Fubao was most sensitive to this kind of gaze, so she simply put on a veil to block out those scorching gazes.
"Let's find a good inn first and stay there before we go out and play." Jiang Fubao said.
"Yes, Miss." Pan Erya replied.
Half an hour later, Jiang Fubao was holding Xue Huan in his left hand and Pan Erya in his right hand. Two constables, Pan Shitou, her disciples and the servants of the Jiang family followed behind him.
A large group of people started to go shopping and eat.
"Miss, look, it's spring and there are still candied haws. I'll treat you and Erya to some, okay?" Xue Huan took out her small purse, searched and counted out nine copper coins, thinking that no matter how expensive they were, they would only be three cents a string.
But after hearing the price, she was so scared that she almost dropped the copper coin in her hand.
"What? Ten cents for a string? That's so expensive." The money-grubber Xue Huan had no choice but to take out a piece of silver and hand it over to the man who was selling the candied haws.
She waited for him to give her the change without blinking.
"Look at the way you're searching. If you don't know, you'd think I don't reward you on weekdays." Jiang Fubao poked her forehead.
The force is very light.
"Hey, miss, I want to save some money." Xue Huan took the change like a little hamster, put it back into her small purse, and then stuffed it into the pocket of her clothes, not forgetting to pat it.
Afraid of being stolen.
"Thank you, Xue Huan, for treating me to Tanghulu. Miss, there are steamed buns for sale there, and I think they are made with mutton. I'll treat you to some."
Pan Erya was much more generous and directly invited everyone to eat.
