Chapter 305 Good Luck
He just smiled and said, "Since you are here in Beijing to see the world, you must stay here for a while and take a good look at the world."
"Okay." Jiang Chunyu responded with a smile.
After not seeing each other for a long time, the family got together and asked about each other's well-being.
Jiang Youcheng and Liu were very pleased to learn that Song Jingyun was now doing well in his career and was highly regarded by the Emperor and the Crown Prince.
Jiang Mixia was also delighted when she learned that her family's bamboo weaving, porcelain kiln and farmland businesses were doing well and were even thriving.
"Life at home is pretty good now. The house has been renovated and expanded, and the servants are working diligently. There's nothing to worry about, except that everyone in the family is worried about you two."
Jiang Youcheng said, "Although you and Jing Yun sent many letters back and reported many things that you were safe, you were still away from home and your family was worried. Now that they knew your mother and I were coming to the capital, they all hurriedly asked us to bring some things back."
As they were talking, Jiang Youcheng and Liu laid out the things they brought one by one and introduced them to Jiang Mixia and Song Jingyun one by one.
"Your aunt said that no matter how warm you are when you are away from home, it is not as good as the quilt at home. She specially used the cotton newly picked in autumn to make a new quilt. She went to the county town to carefully select the quilt cover and lining. She said it is absolutely soft and warm to use."
"Your sister Chunshi made a few pairs of soles for me. They were all made of new cloth. I didn't dare put on the uppers because I was afraid they wouldn't fit and would be uncomfortable to wear. So I brought them all here. If they fit, I'll have the little maid who can embroider put them on."
"This is the set of bowls and tea sets made for you by your sister Xiao Xing and Zhu Yongwu. They said that they don't think the quality is as good as the ones from the official kiln, but it's handmade and the style is not available elsewhere. It's also a novelty to use while eating or drinking tea."
"These are the red dates that your uncle Yongcang dried for me. They grow on his own date tree. They are big and fresh. He said they are not expensive, but just a token of his appreciation. You can eat them as a snack or make soup or tea with them."
"This is the millet your aunt San Miao gave me. She wanted to pick every grain of it. She said that the food outside is delicious, but my stomach still needs to be nourished by the rice at home."
Shredded mustard greens, chili sauce, dried apricots...
They are not rare and precious items, but they are full of deep affection and friendship from family members and fellow villagers.
Jiang Mixia and Song Jingyun felt warm in their hearts. They did not let their servants come to help, but packed up and put all these things away by themselves.
The arrival of Jiang Youcheng, Liu and Jiang Chunyu made Jiang Mixia even busier.
She was busy buying new clothes and things for them, and taking the family to the capital to walk around and have a look.
Song Jingyun is also becoming increasingly busy here.
He had to deal with the emperor's cultivation of immortals, assist the prince in handling state affairs, and discuss with several old ministers such as Tang Zhichuan how to deal with the emperor next.
The most important thing is that Xun Yuanbai has come to see him every day these days.
It wasn't anything important, but I just wanted to follow him, saying that I wanted to share in his good luck.
Song Jingyun frowned because of this.
How could he have any good luck? What made Song Jingyun even more headache was that the Hanlin Academy was busy these days, so Xun Yuanbo was waiting outside. As soon as Song Jingyun got out of the office, he immediately came up with a smile and grabbed his sleeve and refused to let go.
