Bright Moonlit Night

Chapter 16 Chapter 6

In the early morning of the next day, Aunt Wang got up early, and when she heard that Jin Yi had rested in Zhaoyan's room last night, her heart moved, and she led the two servant girls to Zhaoyan's courtyard.

When Aunt Wang arrives, the father and son will wash up.

Aunt Wang asked about Ann, and said to Jin Yi: "Now that the weather is getting warmer, the quilts that are placed and covered in winter are too thick. I am worried that Yan'er will not sleep well, so I come to see if the maids are okay. Replace in time."

Jin Yidao: "It's not thick, I fell asleep last night and thought it was just right."

Zhao Yan said: "It has already been changed. A few days ago, Uncle Ming asked sisters Liu Yun to change it for me."

"Just change it." Aunt Wang smiled and asked again, "Are you going to the old lady's place for breakfast?"

"I'll go to the old lady's for lunch later."

Aunt Wang said happily: "If you don't mind, why don't you go to my place for breakfast? Last night, I boiled the seafood porridge over a slow fire, and the fresh vegetable sprouts are already mixed."

Jin Yilue thought about it and agreed.Zhao Yan still went to the old lady's place, and said to his father before leaving: "Daddy, you should go to our place earlier!"

Jin Yi and Aunt Wang went to Aunt Wang's residence together, the porridge and vegetables were served one by one, Aunt Wang served her attentively, Jin Yi said: "Don't worry about it, I'm used to eating by myself in the army."

Aunt Wang sat down to accompany her.After taking a few mouthfuls of porridge, he tentatively asked, "I don't blame the concubine for donating to Tanzhou at the invitation of the seventh princess?"

Jin Yidao: "Why should I blame you for this matter?"

Aunt Wang put down the bowl, sighed, and looked sad, "Because of this, I have offended many people in the house."

"How?"

Aunt Wang cleverly added and deleted what she said back to the old lady that day, causing Jin Yi to frown frequently. After she finished talking, she said: "The old lady is definitely an unreasonable person, you can discuss things with her."

Aunt Wang couldn't understand what Jin Yi's opinion was, she felt uneasy, she changed her mind, and said: "The donation from the government is to save money in the next year. The concubine has reduced her share a lot, but , Mr. Ming, he..."

"How is he?" Jin Yi paused.

Aunt Wang said: "A man came here a few years ago, claiming to be a good friend of the Lord, and he asked to borrow 3 taels of cash. Mr. Ming came to ask my concubine to pay, but I have not agreed yet. First, the amount is too large Second, Mr. Fan doesn't usually deal with our family, and he came to borrow money while you were away, so I don't know what his background is..."

Master Fan?Could it be Fan Zhi?Jin Yi thought to himself, no wonder at the banquet last night, Fan Zhi, who has never been flattering, came to toast his wine and thank him. He thought he was thanking himself for the country and the people, but it seemed that there was another reason.

Thinking of this, Jin Yi asked: "How will this matter be resolved later?"

Aunt Wang replied: "The concubine refused to pay the money, but Mr. Ming insisted that Mr. Fan was a close friend of the master, and he blamed the concubine. He is the wife, and the concubine should not have disobeyed , but since the old lady let the concubine take care of the house temporarily, even if the concubine offended Mr. Ming, he must take the public as the most important thing. I did not pay the money. I heard that the young master took his own dowry money. Lord, forgive me To be frank, our family sent a lot of dowry over there that day, and the dowry over there is less than half. Although this dowry belongs to Mr. Ming for the time being, without your consent, he borrowed it from someone of unknown origin without your approval. Man, it's really..."

Jin Yi lost his appetite and said: "I already understand this matter, you don't need to say more. I'm full, you eat by yourself."

After speaking, Jin Yiwei got up and left.

Inside Fangman Court, Fu Ming was reading the tabloids that are popular in the market today. The tabloids were compiled by some people who seemed to have a certain background mixed with true and false news from the DPRK and China. They were sold every morning at no cost. How long will it be sold out.

Today's tabloids have a few stories about Jin Yiwai's return to court yesterday. Even what the emperor said at the banquet, Jin Yihui wrote everything in a decent way, which seems to be true.In addition, the poem recited by the prince is also written on it.

After Fu Ming read it, he felt that the poem should be written by the prince.The prince is good at writing, and he is proficient in all poems and songs. He once published a book called "The Collection of the Wind", and it was circulated among the people for a while. Fu Ming also read it and understood the prince's poetic style.Besides, the skill of this poem is not bad, and ordinary literate people can't write it.

It is human nature for the prince to sing poems and celebrate the triumphant return of the army.Fu Ming finished reading the poem again, but he couldn't help sighing in his heart, and then laughed out loud like it was funny.

The laughter fell into the ears of Jin Yi who just stepped into the door, and 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 prince's poem last night." He took the newspaper to Jin Yi.

Jin Yi took it to browse, and said: "It is indeed the song that the prince recited last night. What's the problem?"

Jin Yi has an amazing memory, but he does not understand it when he remembers it. Fu Ming said: "From the superficial words, this poem list is indeed a eulogy. But the crown prince's allusions are like salt in 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. .”

"How to say?"

"Using Han Wu as a metaphor for today's sages, and using Huo Piao Yao as a metaphor for the Lord, not to mention that this time the Lord is quelling internal strife rather than resisting foreign enemies. In fact, there is a lot to learn about his chosen deeds. It seems that the monarch and his ministers are mutually beneficial, and they have opened up territories. , but the twists and turns lead to the ending of one who condemns himself, and the other who dies young. This is the crown prince - insinuating that martial arts are not suitable for governing the country, and martial arts are all sinners."

Hearing this, Jin Yi read the long poem carefully, put down the tabloid and sighed softly: "The prince loves literature and dislikes martial arts, it has always been like this, it's not surprising."

Fu Ming nodded, and said: "I shouldn't have talked about the court affairs, this time I've overstepped 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 a few years ago, did you lend him your own money?"

"En." Fu Ming replied, "The family has its own rules for handling affairs, so I have no choice but to do so."

Jin Yi saw that Fu Ming didn't want to say more, so he didn't want to pursue it any further. He probably knew the whole story, so he just asked if he had paid it back.

"It was all returned a few days ago."

Jin Yidao: "Brother Wen Su is a person who keeps his promise. This time, I am lucky to have you."

Fu Ming shook his head and smiled, "This is what I should have done."

When Jin Yi heard this, his heart wavered slightly: Is it what he should do to relieve his friends' urgent needs?why?If he really regarded Fu Ming as his closest relative, Fu Ming said that he would bear it without shame.But when you think about the past, how much did you do?How did Fu Ming behave after entering the mansion?

Gradually, Jin Yi lost his mind.All kinds of previous events, which I had neglected, came to my mind one by one.

"Grandpa?"

Fu Ming's soft call awakened Jin Yi, he came back to his senses, looked at Fu Ming's perturbed eyes, stretched out his hand unconsciously, and gently stroked his fair and handsome face, Fu Ming was stunned, almost breathing All hold your breath.

Jin Yi withdrew his hand after touching it, "I will treat you well in the future." After saying a word, he left, striding like a meteor, but his figure seemed not so stable.

After a long time, Fu Ming raised his hand to touch his cheek, only to feel that his fingertips were extremely warm.

Jin Yi triumphantly returned, and should have prepared a banquet, but the old lady knew that her grandson didn't like to be noisy, and only close relatives gathered for a meal, which was the most warm 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's name is not Fu Ming, is it because she doesn't recognize him, doesn't like him, or because of herself?She thought that she still didn't regard Fu Ming as her wife, so she excluded him in such an occasion?

The old lady saw that Jin Yi seemed to be a little distracted, so she asked: "Long loan, is the food not to your liking? Or do you have something urgent to do?"

Jin Yi shook his head, suppressed his emotions and tasted the taste of reunion after a long absence with everyone.

When drinking tea after dinner, the old lady mentioned the matter of Aunt Wang's embezzlement of her servant's money years ago, and said: "She is getting older now, and her heart is getting bigger. She must have said a lot in front of you. You have 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, "What else? I didn't know."

Jin Yidao: "At the moment it's Wang's manager, so it's probably inconvenient for Brother Ming to mention it to you directly. Besides, Brother Wen Su's situation is urgent, so we can't wait."

The old lady sighed, "Ningxue was smart and well-behaved when she was young, and she was also loyal to you. I saw that she was reliable, and my own body seemed to be getting older every year, so I taught her to manage the house and trusted her. Unexpectedly, she It's becoming more and more inappropriate, making claims, short-sighted, and trying to do things that are not on the table. Now it seems that the right of this manager should be taken back."

"Grandson thinks it should be so. Although it is a matter of the inner court, it involves a lot, and she can no longer be allowed to act so petty."

"Then who do you think can take care of this house? I'm really old, and I have more energy than energy."

Jin Yidao: "Sister Ren Lan has grown up too, and she must have the ability to manage the family when she gets married in the future. The old lady should promote her."

The old lady nodded and said with a smile: "You are considerate as a brother, I also plan to do so, but Lan'er is always going to marry, I taught her, what should I do when she leaves? I have to teach her again One, it’s good to teach together.”

Jin Yidao: "Does the old lady have someone she likes?"

"Hmm." The old lady didn't know who it was, but asked, "What do you think? Who else is suitable?"

Jin Yidao: "It's good for the old lady to decide."

"Then it's Xinyue. I think she's very good. She knows more about current affairs than Ningxue, and she doesn't have much selfishness."

Although Jin Yi was slightly surprised, but after thinking about it, he said: "That's fine, she has a place in this family, so I can rest assured."

"If you are really worried and flatter her, who can say anything? Don't you understand what she means when Sirou entrusts her to you?"

"The old lady knows that when Sirou was here, we had already planned to marry the girl Xinyue to a friend of mine. After Xinyue left, Xinyue refused to marry out, so how could my grandson... She is willing to stay with her?" In the mansion, we don't treat her badly, provide her with food and clothing, and give her a place, that's all I can do."

"Forget it, let's do it like this." The old lady said, "During your absence, although Brother Ming ignored the family, he still cared about me, Lan'er, and Yan'er. I think that child is also a Really, you... think about it for yourself."

Jin Yi replied: "Grandson knows." After concentrating for a moment, he said: "In the future, when the old lady wants to get together with the family, why not let Xinyue and Brother Ming come together."

The old lady was a little surprised when she heard this, and then said with a smile: "Very good, very good."
