A new journey of accumulating wealth
Chapter 398 Journey to the Homeland 3 in 1
"It's so dirty!" Cai Baojia put the sachet under his nose and tugged at his father's sleeve, "Father, hurry up, it's so dirty here!"
yes!It looks dirty.All kinds of women, even the least decent people are not close.There are many servants scattered around the periphery. Looking at the clothes, you can tell that there are some servants who came with the master, but they can't help and wait outside.There were also some who were afraid that they were here to inquire about the news for the masters of the various families, but they all hated being dirty and stood outside.
But her eldest daughter was inside, she couldn't see it at first, but later there were too many people, she stood on a chair, directing back and forth, with a sullen face and frowning at a young age.For some reason, suddenly, my nose became sore.Looking back at the second daughter, "When I was young, I carried firewood to sell, and these people were willing to help. I carried the firewood to the market, and when a person who sold firewood had a customer, he always asked others to buy it first. Yes, when you meet a bad buyer, those people are the ones who have the guts to help you bargain for your father. Your father, your grandmother, were just like them in the early years... so dirty!"
Cai Baojia didn't dare to speak anymore, she lowered her head for a long while before saying: "Father is a scholar, how can he be like them..."
"After three generations, your descendants may not be comparable to some of them..."
"Father!" How can you say that?Cai Baojia's eyes were red, and his marriage had to be in an official's family at the worst, how could the younger generation be inferior to others?There were tears in her eyes, and her voice was sharp, "I'm not here anymore, I want to go home, I want my mother..."
Cai Xin looked at this girl, "Are you sure you want to go back now?"
yes!immediately!I can't stay here for a moment.
Cai Xin sighed in his heart, and asked again: "If you insist on going back, you won't even go to the academy in the future. Since the more you study, the less you understand, then don't go. You really want to be like this, an official lady at home. ? No matter what your sister will become in the future, you will not be jealous or regret it?"
If you don't go to the academy, you won't go to the academy. She is also very scared of what happened this time, and she doesn't want to go to the academy again.
As for the elder sister... she will become whatever she likes, the best result is to marry to her hometown, and see if it is the father's home of the same year or the elder brother's classmate's home... Can she compare with herself? ?Her maternal ancestor's family is a noble Hanlin, who is her maternal ancestor's family?It's just eating from the ground.Her mother is just a village girl, and her own mother is a young lady from the Hanlin family, so what can be compared?What happened to studying medicine?It's just doing some stable women's work.This is self-willing to degenerate, and it is a cheap business.Father didn't blame her for insulting her family style, but instead said that he would not be jealous of her in the future?joke!What do you have to be jealous of yourself?What is there to regret?
With this look, Cai Xin's eyes flashed an inexplicable color, "You are not too young, let's talk about everything after thinking about it. Stay here for a day today, take a good look... think about it with your brain..."
"I don't want it!" Cai Baojia desperately shook his head and put the sachet under his nose, "Father won't come back, I will go back by myself. Anyway, I don't want to stay here for a moment..."
Cai Xin looked at the child, and a look of regret flashed in his eyes, "You have to remember that my father gave you a chance. From now on, you can live the life you want, and do what you can for your father. Within the scope, it can guarantee you a good life. But it is only limited to this. As long as you regret it." He reached out to pick up the two sons, who were still young, and their mothers were sitting in the carriage behind them, "You go to the back Sit, this car is for your second sister, let the driver take her back..."
Cai Baojia was dumbfounded, "Father, you won't come back?"
Cai Xin waved his hand, but there was not much anger on his face, "Go back. Go back and tell the chef what you want to eat."
The only ones who followed were the nanny and the maid, and Cai Baojia finally realized that the car started moving. She was eager to say something through the car window, but was suddenly attracted by a noble young man in the crowd.That boy is... completely different from his cousin from the Deng family.He thought that his cousin, gentle and handsome, was the best.But it turned out to be so good... Compared with this young man, even the stars beside Haoyue are not.She suddenly felt that the phrase "How can a firefly compete with a bright moon" is not an exaggeration at all.
Honghui stood on the sidelines and watched, and told Hai Lancha, "Allocate twice as many manpower to maintain order. Don't cause trouble. Tell them to change into casual clothes and hang badges on their bodies, so as not to cause panic."
Hai Lancha responded, turned around and left quickly.
Only then did Hong Hui lead Hong Chen all the way around to the tent behind.The tent was full of medicinal materials, and Wang Xichen was only responsible for collecting the medicines. Today's medicines are all free.
"Is there enough medicine?" Hong Hui asked.
Wang Xichen didn't bother to talk, and didn't raise his head, "I can survive until the next half hour. Master Duan, it's not the medicine that's expensive, it's the doctor's fee that's expensive."
clear!
Hong Chen waited angrily for Wang Xichen, what's the use of talking to Master Duan?You are really not afraid to put Master Duan on the ground.Is this something that Master Duan can do now?
Hong Hui patted Hong Chen and squeezed out from here.If you can't help, don't bother.Go out and leave the crowded area, walk to the side, and my own Ama is sitting at a small tea stand here.There were a few students from the school who sat with my Ama, and they didn't sit at the same table, and my Ama shared a table with others and sat in a relatively outside place.
"... What if the reclaimed land is owned by each family? The state does not collect taxes, and the income is kept for oneself... Brother, do you think it is so delicious?"
"It depends on what to grow. I heard that the old sage has old-fashioned miscellaneous grains... We don't care whether the grains are miscellaneous or not, as long as we can fill our stomachs. But I haven't seen any movement from the government."
Fourth Master turned to look at the four students, "Did you hear that?"
Several people nodded, "Yes! I heard it."
The old man brought the old lady to see a doctor, and when the old lady came, he got up and left.
Just after Honghui passed by, he heard his Ama look at the seven of them: "You go back and write your own plans. You still have half a year in the academy. After half a year, you will all go down and start working as the county magistrate. What are you going to do, understand? "
These seven people are the seven pilot sites that have been divided, and they generally go in the same direction, but other aspects can be adjusted by themselves, and try to see if the reclamation of wasteland can be carried out.
This is easier said than done!I didn't sit here much, scattered on the street, or squatted in a shady place, and went to 'chat' with the surrounding villagers.
Cai Xin knew Gao Jin, Gao Jin came from a wealthy family, he was not young, and had grandchildren.Now he is sitting on a tree root under the shade of a tree, talking to some Liba.He left his son in the carriage and asked Mammy to watch, and wanted to go over to say hello, but when he got a little closer, he heard those Liba talking to Gao Jin.
"There are many brothers in the family, and the total is only three to five acres of land. If you divide it up, each brother doesn't have a single acre of land... If you don't come out to find work, you will just starve to death. It's okay to do long-term labor for a big family, just take care of food. There is some control... but there is no money to spend."
Cai Xin backed away slowly, he saw Gao Jin's serious face.
Not to mention Gao Jin's complexion is serious, Cai Xin's complexion is a bit serious.
If something like the land really moves, it will really move the most terrible and fundamental thing.But at this moment, he seemed to smell something.
Yes!Fourth master wants to temporarily implement a land policy that combines public and private.It is already private, if you touch other people's things, they are afraid that they will go all out.There must be chaos.Then leave it alone.At the same time, it is possible to count the idle land in various places, and return this part of the land to the imperial court.Those who have no land, or those whose family land is not enough to meet the needs of the family, can use the public land for free. This part of the tax can be exempted, but it cannot be bought or sold.It seems that some land can be bought and sold, and taxes have to be collected according to the previous ones.At the same time, the imperial court gave priority to the promotion of high-yielding crops on land.
Those with household registration will return to the original place of household registration, and those without household registration will register with the yamen of the current residence, and the court will make unified arrangements.The land outside the customs is vast and requires a lot of people.In addition, in places with many mountains and little land, if people voluntarily immigrate outside the customs, each family can get ten mu of land for their own private use. It is said that it can be bought and sold after five years.
But whether this will work or not, we have to try it first to know.The seven people from the School of Economics will shoulder such a mission in the spring of next year and go to various places with different conditions.
But in fact, even the situation near the capital is so worrying, and the situation in other places is only worse in the capital.
Cai Xin didn't bother others. He was dressed in coarse clothes and blended in the crowd inconspicuously. Even his exposed face and arms had the color of being exposed to the sun, so those Liba were neither awkward nor afraid when talking to him. In the past, I was afraid that it would not work. With my own attire, people around me would shy away.
He went straight back to the carriage, took the two children back first, sent the children home and came back again.After Cai Baoyi finished her work, she saw her father standing beside the carriage from a distance.
She hurried over, "Why did father come in person?"
Cai Xin smiled: "Get in the car first."
As if she had something to say, Cai Baoyi glanced at Xi'er, Xi'er just sat on the shaft of the car and never went inside.
Cai Xin glanced at his daughter: "If you want to go out of Beijing to do something for your father, you can follow your grandmother and elder brother and bring your younger siblings in the capital, is that possible?"
Cai Baoyi was taken aback: "I never heard that my father is going to be transferred."
This is the decision I made today, "There are many gossips in the capital, but it is difficult to concentrate on doing something. In the future, if the father is not mistaken, whether he will be an official is not the most important thing, whether he will do things , doing things in a down-to-earth manner is the most important thing. Instead of wasting time in Beijing and getting caught up in endless intrigues, it's better to go down."
This should be a temporary decision.Cai Baoyi immediately understood that her father's concern was that she had only just picked her up, and that she had to leave after a few days of getting along. It was impossible to take her with her, and it was impossible for her to follow her father.She hurriedly said, "Of course it's important. Father doesn't have to worry about me..." She finally realized, "Father wants to take up the post alone?"
"Yes!" Cai Xin said, "Your grandmother and your elder brother and sister-in-law have all returned to Beijing. There is a big family in the capital. Your elder brothers are also going to study, so it's better to stay in Beijing. This time my father also wants to send your uncle and aunt Stay here, and you will take care of each other. If you go out of Beijing for your father, you will have no worries."
He made a decision but said it so firmly, as if he could leave Beijing at any time.She followed her husband, and occasionally listened to him talking to the princesses, and she listened to some words a lot, so she could understand a little bit.The transfer of officials will be assessed by the Ministry of Officials.
Seeing the doubt on her face, Cai Xin once again lamented the importance of the environment.This is still true. If you grow up in the countryside and don't go to Beijing or go to such an academy, you will never have such insight in your life.He explained very patiently: "At the beginning of the imperial court, it was planned to set up a shipbuilding department in Fujian, and there would be a shipbuilding supervision battalion under the shipbuilding department. People are willing to go. It is not difficult for the father to take the initiative to go. The previous evaluation has always been excellent, and there is still some confidence in this."
It turned out to be the Shipping Department?
Cai Baoyi's eyes lit up, and this expression made Cai Xin more interested in talking, "Our Cai family has been in decline for several generations. Only in the generation of fathers has there been some improvement. But The Cai family is a rich family, of course the father was able to pass the imperial examination, thanks to your grandfather's guidance..."
His grandfather's name is Cai Shiyuan, who lived in Liangshan, Zhangpu, and everyone honored him as "Mr. Liangshan".The ancestor of the Cai family is a scholar from generation to generation, and he is a descendant of Cai Yuanding, an agent scholar in the Song Dynasty;
"My father's great-grandfather, Cai Erxi, was a student of Huang Daozhou, an important minister and famous scholar in the Ming Dynasty; his great-uncle was Cai Bi, a student of Bagong, who served as a teacher in Luoyuan County, and was later hired by Fujian Governor Zhang Boxing to preside over Fuzhou Aofeng Academy... ..." Cai Xin continued to talk to his daughter, "Thus, through Aofeng Academy, the Cai family has many students and old officials in the local area. If the father is not today, these relationships have nothing to do with us. Today is different from the past, the Cai family Fame can't reach the capital. You are so close to your mother when you are in the capital for your father. All the connections and resources of the Cai family are your father's helper. The shipping department...others are afraid of difficulties at the beginning, but my father is not afraid. I just don't feel relieved You...if you really want to go, I'm afraid it will be years...as my father, I deeply feel that I can't live with you."
These words moved Cai Baoyi's face, her father was worried about her, why didn't she worry about her father.So, when she returned to the academy, the first thing she did was to go to the teacher and ask about it bluntly.
Lin Yutong was surprised, "Your father wants to be a shipping company?"
Yes!
Cai Xin is a very capable official, and it seems that he has worked all the way to the center in the end, how can the cabinet military plan.But it's still too young.Unexpectedly, this person turned around so quickly. Seeing that the news in the capital was not right, he immediately turned around and chose a particularly promising yamen.The ship division supervised the construction, and the weight in the future is self-evident.One is a commercial vessel, the other is a military vessel, and the third is a commercial-military dual-purpose vessel, which even involves some things that should be kept secret.As long as he has something to do with these, he will be locked in the core part of his life.
I know Cai Xinlin Yutong a little bit. His ability is one aspect, and the local prestige and connections of the Cai family is also a big aspect.
Lin Yutong was not in a hurry to reply to Cai Baoyi, "You go back first, let me ask the emperor about this."
This made Cai Baoyi even more worried.
We didn't spend the Dragon Boat Festival together. After the Dragon Boat Festival, Qianlong lived in the garden to escape the summer heat, but he still came.
The fourth master brought this matter to Cai Xin to discuss with Cai Xin, "...now that the two factions are fighting, it seems that the situation is calm for the time being, but because they don't know the depth of the water and the shallowness of the water, no one dares to take the lead But don't even think about stopping once it has started. The wind in the capital will soon spread out. In this case, in fact, there will be no shortage of battles anywhere. Ship management is important, and a person who balances the two sides is needed. The Cai family has But because of the family background, the old school can't exclude it, but Cai Xin's daughter is studying in the academy, and she is your empress's disciple. This kind of relationship is close to the new school. , and it will not arouse too much resentment from the old school. Perhaps this is the only person who can be in the cracks between the two factions. He will not be called the shipping department. Among the ministers, if you think about it again, who else is more suitable for this position than Cai Xin?"
Qianlong originally wanted to choose someone from the Fucha family, but asking Huang Ama to say this was indeed a delay.Fucha's family can go alone, but Cai Xin is really irreplaceable.But... there is no doubt about the employing person, if the two go together, they must restrain each other.Originally, this is nothing, but if you want to use the Cai family's influence, you can't show your distrust of it.The so-called character and backbone of literati are sometimes very out of date.
But some confidential matters are entrusted to such a person-don't worry?
Really not!
Qianlong pondered for a while, and asked hesitantly: "The girl from the Cai family is the girl who often helps the Queen's wife in the vegetable garden?"
right!Children who grew up in the countryside are no strangers to these jobs.
Qianlong said: "Look, son, that girl is about the same age as Yonglang."
Lin Yutong was taken aback, which meant that he wanted to point Cai Baoyi to Honghui.
Before Lin Yutong could speak to Fourth Master, Qianlong said, "Mother Huang, it's not that my son is suspicious. The situation in Fujian is complicated, and Taiwan is just across the sea..."
Although the Taiwan bend has recovered, the commotion has not recovered and stopped.There are frequent people-to-people exchanges between the two places. It is often the case that the elder brother is here and the younger brother is there. This is not only a geographical link, but also a blood relationship.A little mistake can ruin a big deal.
Qianlong said: "Not only that! Cai Xin can go, but all his family members in his hometown have to go to Beijing."
And I'm afraid Cai Xin has thought of this too. Cai Baoyi said before that her grandmother and her uncle's family from her hometown will follow her to Beijing.
Now that it is different, Fujian is far away from the capital, and if something happens there, it will not be a problem to hide it from the capital for a month or two.Therefore, people are more reliable!Yin Jishan was in Fujian before. During the Kangxi Dynasty, the old man Kangxi released his companions who accompanied him in the early years to study in Fujian. Everyone is a person who can depend on his life.The more movement there is at the Taiwan bend, the more reassuring it is for the people sent there.
Qianlong saw that Huang Erniang was displeased with this proposed marriage, and said: "If Huang Erniang has other arrangements for Yonglang's marriage, this girl will refer to Yongxuan in the future... Yongqi is a little older, so give it to Yongqi! You can point it out to Yong Qi. My son thought about it before, that child was taught by the Empress's side, pointing it out to Yong Lang, you will feel that you know everything..."
Pointing to Yongqi is even worse.Yongqi died young, and now Lin Yutong doesn't know why she died young, but you are such a good child, you point around like this.Not like it.
Fourth Master interjected: "There's no rush to settle this matter, you should investigate this Cai Xin first, and if all aspects are suitable, then it won't be too late."
But both of them knew that Qianlong would never entrust this important position to someone who was not 100% trustworthy.He would rather not move, but also to ensure 100% safety.
Unfortunately, large-scale shipbuilding, including docks, is absolutely impossible without local support.And people who have local resources and can dissociate between the two factions... It's really hard to find.Really change to someone Qianlong trusts... Even if it is Hongzhou, it will be too late for three to five years due to constraints from all aspects.
The most rare thing in this world is the word 'suitable'.
When Qianlong went back, he really checked Cai Xin carefully, and he was very satisfied in all aspects.Wu Shulai also said: "The Cai family also has a second daughter..." It is suitable for any prince.Is it not the same as marriage?It seems that the empress dowager attaches great importance to the eldest daughter of the Cai family, and she seems to be of great use.If this refers to marriage, I'm afraid it will spoil the empress dowager's arrangement.
Why don't I know?But it looks the same to which daughter is married, but in fact it is not the same at all!The difference is huge.
The second daughter of the Cai family was implicated in the incident. Her maternal grandfather, the Deng family, was the vanguard of the old school.Giving that child a marriage is tantamount to sending a very wrong signal.
Qianlong waved his hand: "Come on. Don't worry about it. Doesn't Huang Ama know which is more important?" A doctor is important, but compared with a warship or an ocean-going ship, it is nothing.Besides, Fujin of the royal family is also a doctor.Queen Mother is still a husband, who said anything?It was Huimin's office, which only looked at the women's disease hospital, including the free clinic that day, if it wasn't for the sign of Huang'enniang there, it would have caused a lot of trouble.It will only be more convenient to have the status of a royal wife, which is a good thing that benefits all parties!
Wu Shulai smiled apologetically, and talked to the emperor: "The empress dowager thinks differently from ordinary people."
Qianlong laughed, shook his head lightly, and lay down slowly.
Hong Hui also lay down, but there was a knock on the door.My mother-in-law is here.
What do you think?It turned out to be this.
Hong Hui laughed, "Emiang, there is no reason to hesitate." My own Emiang didn't know how many things she had gone through, but she still had the same idea as before, always wanting to find someone she likes.It can be seen that Ama really took good care of her mother.No matter what age I am, the youthful mentality is hard to find.He said in relief, "If there is no suitable girl, my son doesn't have that much thought on the matter of men and women. Now I have pushed a suitable one, who knows? Just get along slowly. At least this girl from the Cai family is enough. He's smart, magnanimous and measured."
The meaning is still appropriate!
Lin Yutong wanted to ask something, but he didn't ask.Honghui just laughed, "She can train|teach her, this is the blessing of my son in this life, and he is much luckier than in his previous life."
That girl from Fucha's family...in fact, Hong Hui has been worrying about her for half her life.Who wouldn't be tired?It must be a lucky thing for people like them to have someone who can share and work together.What's more, change is a long-term process, and every step is like walking on eggshells. It is much better to have someone who entrusts you behind you than to focus on two tasks.
Lin Yutong felt a little more at ease, the kind of bully who loves little white flowers silly and sweet, really!Never seen it in reality.
For Hong Hui, he doesn't have the time and energy to fall in love freely and find a girl he likes.If there happens to be one by his side, and that girl happens to be his fiancée, he will use his mind and emotion, and emotion may come at any moment.
"Emiang, I'm already very lucky." Honghui laughed, "No one knows who the destined person is until we meet. How do you know it's not her if you don't try? It's like you and Ama, you two Can you predict the future when you get married?"
What are we doing?
If you think it's okay, then turn around... "Am I talking to that girl, or are you talking?"
"Son, let's talk." Honghui smiled, "You have been tired for several days, going back and resting is nothing better than anything. My son will send you back..."
What are you giving?Can't I go back?
Honghui insisted on getting up to send her off, but the fourth master said to him outside: "Sleep with you, I'll pick her up." After taking a shower, she ran out, no need to ask, she came to Honghui's place up.
Lin Yutong said awkwardly, "I'm going back now... What are you doing after washing your hair?"
Fourth Master left, signaling Honghui to close the door.Honghui looked at his parents holding hands in the background, and said he was lying if he didn't envy her.
From a distance, he heard Ama seem to be authoritative to his mother, "Living in this world, how can there be no compromise? Even a god will not be able to do whatever he wants. You wish he could make everything perfect for him, but you and I have not been able to say so far. It's perfect. The way of heaven is incomplete, you don't understand this truth? You understand everything, but only in Honghui's matter, you have committed the problem of demanding..."
What else to say, Hong Hui couldn't hear clearly.But he smiled, a very warm smile.Er Niang always feels that she is not perfect, but she has already obtained the purest love in the world, and she should be punished by God for asking too much.Don't expect extravagance, just give hard like my mother, and don't ask for rewards, then the future can always be expected.It may not be true that there is no return!
What should I be busy with on the second day? He asked someone to spread the word about Er Niang's free medical consultation.If you do something good, you have to let others know, and now you need such a thank you.
After arranging things, when I came back, I bought mung bean cakes at the shop I often went to, and took them to find one, and found Cai Baoyi in the medicine field in the garden.
She is not afraid of the sun, she is picking medicinal materials, and now she is learning to process medicinal materials, which requires a lot of hands-on work, so it is more tiring than usual.
Xi'er followed her master closely, and when she saw that Master Duan was standing on the ground, she quickly called her daughter.
Cai Baoyi thought it was his father's business, and hurried over, "Master Duan, do you have news from the Shipping Department?"
Hong Hui pointed to the thatched pavilion, "Go there and talk."
Cai Baoyi followed, "But something is wrong."
Hong Hui looked at the little girl, although she was bright and understanding, she still had a childish look on her face.So he asked half-jokingly: "After thinking about it, what do you want to do in the future?"
Cai Baoyi was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Look at my father's arrangement, if my father arranges for me to go back to my hometown... then I will go back to my hometown to practice medicine. Every place in the Huimin Office will set up a Huimin department, I think I can still be qualified for this position .”
The arrangement she said was a marriage.
It's not a rejection of parents' orders, this is the mentality of a normal girl.So, every time Erniang meets him, she always messes up first.He knew the reason and asked, "Is the capital not good? Why do you insist on going back to your hometown?"
Cai Baoyi smiled, "It's the same everywhere. My father thinks that a stable and smooth life is good for me. I believe he chose the best destination for me after thinking a lot about it."
Honghui smiled, "That was in the past, right?"
Ok?
Hong Hui said: "Before you entered school, your father thought that arrangement was the best for you. But with your emergence and your current status, maybe your father's thinking has changed?"
Cai Baoyi was puzzled, "What does Master Duan mean?"
"Just because you are the empress dowager's direct disciple, you will be of great use, and you will not be allowed to waste your talents in a small place. Otherwise, wouldn't the empress dowager's hard work be in vain? At that time, your father realized your marriage. Not low. Although he thinks too much about this, in fact, with the identity of the empress dowager's disciple, you can have more autonomy in your marriage."
Cai Baoyi froze for a moment, then all thoughts appeared on her face.She remembered that when she went back that night, Cai Baojia said strangely through the flower wall, "I think she can become a god or a ghost? My father actually told me not to regret it? Don't be jealous of her? What is there about her rough country girl that I should be jealous of?" of……"
Hong Hui taught her to think, "Of course, your father doesn't know the empress dowager well, so his thinking is a bit biased. It just so happens that something happened in Beijing, and your father took advantage of the opportunity to propose to go to the Shipping Department... the shipping department's weight. It's clear. Your Cai family's Confucianism can be traced back to the orthodox, and you are the empress dowager's disciple, so this makes your father's position irreplaceable. At the same time, many things cannot be autonomous..."
After saying this, Cai Baoyi understood, "Referring to marriage?"
Hong Hui nodded.
Cai Baoyi was silent for a long time, and then she kept grabbing her belt with both hands, "Who?"
"Whoever you wish, you can be." Hong Hui asked, "Prince of the right age, elder brother of the clan. Those from the distant clan can't, but those from the prince's mansion can."
Cai Baoyi clenched her belt even tighter, looked up at Hong Hui, and after looking at Hong Hui for two seconds, she let go of her hand suddenly: "Master Duan is also Jinzong?"
Hong Hui raised his body backwards, "Of course."
"So it's you, Lord Duan." Cai Baoyi became determined.She was really scared to death just now.
"You have a choice." Hong Hui said, "Fourth elder brother, fifth elder brother, sixth elder brother..."
"I only know Master Duan." Cai Baoyi quickly calmed down without much shame, looked at the bag of mung bean cakes on the table, and nodded.She doesn't know if the future will be good or not, but at least, it won't be worse than any of her expectations.
Hong Hui got up, "I will go to meet your father, and before I propose marriage, I will personally come to propose marriage."
But how could the fourth master ask Honghui to go by himself, and chose a day to rest and take a bath. Lin Yutong and the fourth master took Honghui and four gifts, and went to the door of Cai's house in person.
Cai Xin was sweating when he saw the seal after receiving the post, and hurried out to greet him.In the end, I saw a slender young man getting out of the car and picking up a middle-aged couple.He had never met the old sage before, but no one else could have such a bearing.He immediately bowed, and the fourth master helped him up himself, "Get up, if this is the case, we will be embarrassed as guests."
Cai Xin, who was like a cat in his heart, quickly invited people inside, and only after they sat down did they know why.He was stunned for a moment, then looked at the young man standing beside the old saint.This young man's demeanor...is this the Duanbei Le who didn't see clearly that night?He has seen other princes before, but he didn't know that the adopted one was so outstanding.
As a father, if a girl can find such a child as her son-in-law, she will wake up from a dream.But when he thought about it deeply, he was very worried for a while. Such a child, at first glance, is not someone who has been in the hearts of the people for a long time.His identity is sensitive... In the future...
The key is, what does my daughter think.
He didn't respond directly, his palms were sweating, but he still bite the bullet and said: "The girl is spoiled by her grandmother and she is a bit willful. I hope that she will be safe and happy..."
Seeing that she was thinking about her children, Lin Yutong's expression became more relaxed, "We came here before we got married because we wanted to tell you something. First, the children are young, so maybe the girl will have other thoughts when she grows up in the future , not satisfied with the marriage. You can repent of the marriage. I will give her a decree. After repenting, I am afraid that it will affect her, so I will recognize the prince as a righteous daughter, and the royal family will grant her the status of princess, so that her marriage will not be delayed. Marriage, I also promise that no matter whether you have children or not, Duanbeile is not allowed to take concubines. If you tolerate two colors, his children have no right to inherit the title. I will, I will hand it over to a proper person for safekeeping, and keep it in the archives. Whether I am with you The presence or absence of the old sage counts."
Cai Xin knelt down with a thud, "I'm terrified!"
"Master Cai, don't misunderstand me. This is not because I have won over you. Baoyi is my direct disciple. What I hope is to give her more freedom and let her do whatever she wants like a man."
Cai Xin hurriedly said: "I... thank you for your kindness on behalf of Baoyi."
The fourth master then said: "Cai Qing, it has never been easy to open up a new road. It is impossible to go down this road overnight. The road is full of twists and turns, and there are countless victims. Cai Qing's family has to sacrifice to reunite with their families. Days have since been divided into two places. And these children have to lose something as soon as they step in. This is sacrifice!"
Cai Xin immediately said: "I... know the way to go. And always remember the way to go."
Cai Baoyi, who had been standing outside listening, suddenly burst into tears.It's not that I was wronged, but that the empty part of my heart seemed to be filled all of a sudden.The husband loves himself very much, and Duanbeile respects himself very much.Even if things turn bad, they are doing their best to give themselves more dignity.
No!Or, this should not be called decency, but freedom.
Free?
Today she 'sacrificed' her own freedom, and in the future, she must act like a husband and give freedom to more girls!
yes!It looks dirty.All kinds of women, even the least decent people are not close.There are many servants scattered around the periphery. Looking at the clothes, you can tell that there are some servants who came with the master, but they can't help and wait outside.There were also some who were afraid that they were here to inquire about the news for the masters of the various families, but they all hated being dirty and stood outside.
But her eldest daughter was inside, she couldn't see it at first, but later there were too many people, she stood on a chair, directing back and forth, with a sullen face and frowning at a young age.For some reason, suddenly, my nose became sore.Looking back at the second daughter, "When I was young, I carried firewood to sell, and these people were willing to help. I carried the firewood to the market, and when a person who sold firewood had a customer, he always asked others to buy it first. Yes, when you meet a bad buyer, those people are the ones who have the guts to help you bargain for your father. Your father, your grandmother, were just like them in the early years... so dirty!"
Cai Baojia didn't dare to speak anymore, she lowered her head for a long while before saying: "Father is a scholar, how can he be like them..."
"After three generations, your descendants may not be comparable to some of them..."
"Father!" How can you say that?Cai Baojia's eyes were red, and his marriage had to be in an official's family at the worst, how could the younger generation be inferior to others?There were tears in her eyes, and her voice was sharp, "I'm not here anymore, I want to go home, I want my mother..."
Cai Xin looked at this girl, "Are you sure you want to go back now?"
yes!immediately!I can't stay here for a moment.
Cai Xin sighed in his heart, and asked again: "If you insist on going back, you won't even go to the academy in the future. Since the more you study, the less you understand, then don't go. You really want to be like this, an official lady at home. ? No matter what your sister will become in the future, you will not be jealous or regret it?"
If you don't go to the academy, you won't go to the academy. She is also very scared of what happened this time, and she doesn't want to go to the academy again.
As for the elder sister... she will become whatever she likes, the best result is to marry to her hometown, and see if it is the father's home of the same year or the elder brother's classmate's home... Can she compare with herself? ?Her maternal ancestor's family is a noble Hanlin, who is her maternal ancestor's family?It's just eating from the ground.Her mother is just a village girl, and her own mother is a young lady from the Hanlin family, so what can be compared?What happened to studying medicine?It's just doing some stable women's work.This is self-willing to degenerate, and it is a cheap business.Father didn't blame her for insulting her family style, but instead said that he would not be jealous of her in the future?joke!What do you have to be jealous of yourself?What is there to regret?
With this look, Cai Xin's eyes flashed an inexplicable color, "You are not too young, let's talk about everything after thinking about it. Stay here for a day today, take a good look... think about it with your brain..."
"I don't want it!" Cai Baojia desperately shook his head and put the sachet under his nose, "Father won't come back, I will go back by myself. Anyway, I don't want to stay here for a moment..."
Cai Xin looked at the child, and a look of regret flashed in his eyes, "You have to remember that my father gave you a chance. From now on, you can live the life you want, and do what you can for your father. Within the scope, it can guarantee you a good life. But it is only limited to this. As long as you regret it." He reached out to pick up the two sons, who were still young, and their mothers were sitting in the carriage behind them, "You go to the back Sit, this car is for your second sister, let the driver take her back..."
Cai Baojia was dumbfounded, "Father, you won't come back?"
Cai Xin waved his hand, but there was not much anger on his face, "Go back. Go back and tell the chef what you want to eat."
The only ones who followed were the nanny and the maid, and Cai Baojia finally realized that the car started moving. She was eager to say something through the car window, but was suddenly attracted by a noble young man in the crowd.That boy is... completely different from his cousin from the Deng family.He thought that his cousin, gentle and handsome, was the best.But it turned out to be so good... Compared with this young man, even the stars beside Haoyue are not.She suddenly felt that the phrase "How can a firefly compete with a bright moon" is not an exaggeration at all.
Honghui stood on the sidelines and watched, and told Hai Lancha, "Allocate twice as many manpower to maintain order. Don't cause trouble. Tell them to change into casual clothes and hang badges on their bodies, so as not to cause panic."
Hai Lancha responded, turned around and left quickly.
Only then did Hong Hui lead Hong Chen all the way around to the tent behind.The tent was full of medicinal materials, and Wang Xichen was only responsible for collecting the medicines. Today's medicines are all free.
"Is there enough medicine?" Hong Hui asked.
Wang Xichen didn't bother to talk, and didn't raise his head, "I can survive until the next half hour. Master Duan, it's not the medicine that's expensive, it's the doctor's fee that's expensive."
clear!
Hong Chen waited angrily for Wang Xichen, what's the use of talking to Master Duan?You are really not afraid to put Master Duan on the ground.Is this something that Master Duan can do now?
Hong Hui patted Hong Chen and squeezed out from here.If you can't help, don't bother.Go out and leave the crowded area, walk to the side, and my own Ama is sitting at a small tea stand here.There were a few students from the school who sat with my Ama, and they didn't sit at the same table, and my Ama shared a table with others and sat in a relatively outside place.
"... What if the reclaimed land is owned by each family? The state does not collect taxes, and the income is kept for oneself... Brother, do you think it is so delicious?"
"It depends on what to grow. I heard that the old sage has old-fashioned miscellaneous grains... We don't care whether the grains are miscellaneous or not, as long as we can fill our stomachs. But I haven't seen any movement from the government."
Fourth Master turned to look at the four students, "Did you hear that?"
Several people nodded, "Yes! I heard it."
The old man brought the old lady to see a doctor, and when the old lady came, he got up and left.
Just after Honghui passed by, he heard his Ama look at the seven of them: "You go back and write your own plans. You still have half a year in the academy. After half a year, you will all go down and start working as the county magistrate. What are you going to do, understand? "
These seven people are the seven pilot sites that have been divided, and they generally go in the same direction, but other aspects can be adjusted by themselves, and try to see if the reclamation of wasteland can be carried out.
This is easier said than done!I didn't sit here much, scattered on the street, or squatted in a shady place, and went to 'chat' with the surrounding villagers.
Cai Xin knew Gao Jin, Gao Jin came from a wealthy family, he was not young, and had grandchildren.Now he is sitting on a tree root under the shade of a tree, talking to some Liba.He left his son in the carriage and asked Mammy to watch, and wanted to go over to say hello, but when he got a little closer, he heard those Liba talking to Gao Jin.
"There are many brothers in the family, and the total is only three to five acres of land. If you divide it up, each brother doesn't have a single acre of land... If you don't come out to find work, you will just starve to death. It's okay to do long-term labor for a big family, just take care of food. There is some control... but there is no money to spend."
Cai Xin backed away slowly, he saw Gao Jin's serious face.
Not to mention Gao Jin's complexion is serious, Cai Xin's complexion is a bit serious.
If something like the land really moves, it will really move the most terrible and fundamental thing.But at this moment, he seemed to smell something.
Yes!Fourth master wants to temporarily implement a land policy that combines public and private.It is already private, if you touch other people's things, they are afraid that they will go all out.There must be chaos.Then leave it alone.At the same time, it is possible to count the idle land in various places, and return this part of the land to the imperial court.Those who have no land, or those whose family land is not enough to meet the needs of the family, can use the public land for free. This part of the tax can be exempted, but it cannot be bought or sold.It seems that some land can be bought and sold, and taxes have to be collected according to the previous ones.At the same time, the imperial court gave priority to the promotion of high-yielding crops on land.
Those with household registration will return to the original place of household registration, and those without household registration will register with the yamen of the current residence, and the court will make unified arrangements.The land outside the customs is vast and requires a lot of people.In addition, in places with many mountains and little land, if people voluntarily immigrate outside the customs, each family can get ten mu of land for their own private use. It is said that it can be bought and sold after five years.
But whether this will work or not, we have to try it first to know.The seven people from the School of Economics will shoulder such a mission in the spring of next year and go to various places with different conditions.
But in fact, even the situation near the capital is so worrying, and the situation in other places is only worse in the capital.
Cai Xin didn't bother others. He was dressed in coarse clothes and blended in the crowd inconspicuously. Even his exposed face and arms had the color of being exposed to the sun, so those Liba were neither awkward nor afraid when talking to him. In the past, I was afraid that it would not work. With my own attire, people around me would shy away.
He went straight back to the carriage, took the two children back first, sent the children home and came back again.After Cai Baoyi finished her work, she saw her father standing beside the carriage from a distance.
She hurried over, "Why did father come in person?"
Cai Xin smiled: "Get in the car first."
As if she had something to say, Cai Baoyi glanced at Xi'er, Xi'er just sat on the shaft of the car and never went inside.
Cai Xin glanced at his daughter: "If you want to go out of Beijing to do something for your father, you can follow your grandmother and elder brother and bring your younger siblings in the capital, is that possible?"
Cai Baoyi was taken aback: "I never heard that my father is going to be transferred."
This is the decision I made today, "There are many gossips in the capital, but it is difficult to concentrate on doing something. In the future, if the father is not mistaken, whether he will be an official is not the most important thing, whether he will do things , doing things in a down-to-earth manner is the most important thing. Instead of wasting time in Beijing and getting caught up in endless intrigues, it's better to go down."
This should be a temporary decision.Cai Baoyi immediately understood that her father's concern was that she had only just picked her up, and that she had to leave after a few days of getting along. It was impossible to take her with her, and it was impossible for her to follow her father.She hurriedly said, "Of course it's important. Father doesn't have to worry about me..." She finally realized, "Father wants to take up the post alone?"
"Yes!" Cai Xin said, "Your grandmother and your elder brother and sister-in-law have all returned to Beijing. There is a big family in the capital. Your elder brothers are also going to study, so it's better to stay in Beijing. This time my father also wants to send your uncle and aunt Stay here, and you will take care of each other. If you go out of Beijing for your father, you will have no worries."
He made a decision but said it so firmly, as if he could leave Beijing at any time.She followed her husband, and occasionally listened to him talking to the princesses, and she listened to some words a lot, so she could understand a little bit.The transfer of officials will be assessed by the Ministry of Officials.
Seeing the doubt on her face, Cai Xin once again lamented the importance of the environment.This is still true. If you grow up in the countryside and don't go to Beijing or go to such an academy, you will never have such insight in your life.He explained very patiently: "At the beginning of the imperial court, it was planned to set up a shipbuilding department in Fujian, and there would be a shipbuilding supervision battalion under the shipbuilding department. People are willing to go. It is not difficult for the father to take the initiative to go. The previous evaluation has always been excellent, and there is still some confidence in this."
It turned out to be the Shipping Department?
Cai Baoyi's eyes lit up, and this expression made Cai Xin more interested in talking, "Our Cai family has been in decline for several generations. Only in the generation of fathers has there been some improvement. But The Cai family is a rich family, of course the father was able to pass the imperial examination, thanks to your grandfather's guidance..."
His grandfather's name is Cai Shiyuan, who lived in Liangshan, Zhangpu, and everyone honored him as "Mr. Liangshan".The ancestor of the Cai family is a scholar from generation to generation, and he is a descendant of Cai Yuanding, an agent scholar in the Song Dynasty;
"My father's great-grandfather, Cai Erxi, was a student of Huang Daozhou, an important minister and famous scholar in the Ming Dynasty; his great-uncle was Cai Bi, a student of Bagong, who served as a teacher in Luoyuan County, and was later hired by Fujian Governor Zhang Boxing to preside over Fuzhou Aofeng Academy... ..." Cai Xin continued to talk to his daughter, "Thus, through Aofeng Academy, the Cai family has many students and old officials in the local area. If the father is not today, these relationships have nothing to do with us. Today is different from the past, the Cai family Fame can't reach the capital. You are so close to your mother when you are in the capital for your father. All the connections and resources of the Cai family are your father's helper. The shipping department...others are afraid of difficulties at the beginning, but my father is not afraid. I just don't feel relieved You...if you really want to go, I'm afraid it will be years...as my father, I deeply feel that I can't live with you."
These words moved Cai Baoyi's face, her father was worried about her, why didn't she worry about her father.So, when she returned to the academy, the first thing she did was to go to the teacher and ask about it bluntly.
Lin Yutong was surprised, "Your father wants to be a shipping company?"
Yes!
Cai Xin is a very capable official, and it seems that he has worked all the way to the center in the end, how can the cabinet military plan.But it's still too young.Unexpectedly, this person turned around so quickly. Seeing that the news in the capital was not right, he immediately turned around and chose a particularly promising yamen.The ship division supervised the construction, and the weight in the future is self-evident.One is a commercial vessel, the other is a military vessel, and the third is a commercial-military dual-purpose vessel, which even involves some things that should be kept secret.As long as he has something to do with these, he will be locked in the core part of his life.
I know Cai Xinlin Yutong a little bit. His ability is one aspect, and the local prestige and connections of the Cai family is also a big aspect.
Lin Yutong was not in a hurry to reply to Cai Baoyi, "You go back first, let me ask the emperor about this."
This made Cai Baoyi even more worried.
We didn't spend the Dragon Boat Festival together. After the Dragon Boat Festival, Qianlong lived in the garden to escape the summer heat, but he still came.
The fourth master brought this matter to Cai Xin to discuss with Cai Xin, "...now that the two factions are fighting, it seems that the situation is calm for the time being, but because they don't know the depth of the water and the shallowness of the water, no one dares to take the lead But don't even think about stopping once it has started. The wind in the capital will soon spread out. In this case, in fact, there will be no shortage of battles anywhere. Ship management is important, and a person who balances the two sides is needed. The Cai family has But because of the family background, the old school can't exclude it, but Cai Xin's daughter is studying in the academy, and she is your empress's disciple. This kind of relationship is close to the new school. , and it will not arouse too much resentment from the old school. Perhaps this is the only person who can be in the cracks between the two factions. He will not be called the shipping department. Among the ministers, if you think about it again, who else is more suitable for this position than Cai Xin?"
Qianlong originally wanted to choose someone from the Fucha family, but asking Huang Ama to say this was indeed a delay.Fucha's family can go alone, but Cai Xin is really irreplaceable.But... there is no doubt about the employing person, if the two go together, they must restrain each other.Originally, this is nothing, but if you want to use the Cai family's influence, you can't show your distrust of it.The so-called character and backbone of literati are sometimes very out of date.
But some confidential matters are entrusted to such a person-don't worry?
Really not!
Qianlong pondered for a while, and asked hesitantly: "The girl from the Cai family is the girl who often helps the Queen's wife in the vegetable garden?"
right!Children who grew up in the countryside are no strangers to these jobs.
Qianlong said: "Look, son, that girl is about the same age as Yonglang."
Lin Yutong was taken aback, which meant that he wanted to point Cai Baoyi to Honghui.
Before Lin Yutong could speak to Fourth Master, Qianlong said, "Mother Huang, it's not that my son is suspicious. The situation in Fujian is complicated, and Taiwan is just across the sea..."
Although the Taiwan bend has recovered, the commotion has not recovered and stopped.There are frequent people-to-people exchanges between the two places. It is often the case that the elder brother is here and the younger brother is there. This is not only a geographical link, but also a blood relationship.A little mistake can ruin a big deal.
Qianlong said: "Not only that! Cai Xin can go, but all his family members in his hometown have to go to Beijing."
And I'm afraid Cai Xin has thought of this too. Cai Baoyi said before that her grandmother and her uncle's family from her hometown will follow her to Beijing.
Now that it is different, Fujian is far away from the capital, and if something happens there, it will not be a problem to hide it from the capital for a month or two.Therefore, people are more reliable!Yin Jishan was in Fujian before. During the Kangxi Dynasty, the old man Kangxi released his companions who accompanied him in the early years to study in Fujian. Everyone is a person who can depend on his life.The more movement there is at the Taiwan bend, the more reassuring it is for the people sent there.
Qianlong saw that Huang Erniang was displeased with this proposed marriage, and said: "If Huang Erniang has other arrangements for Yonglang's marriage, this girl will refer to Yongxuan in the future... Yongqi is a little older, so give it to Yongqi! You can point it out to Yong Qi. My son thought about it before, that child was taught by the Empress's side, pointing it out to Yong Lang, you will feel that you know everything..."
Pointing to Yongqi is even worse.Yongqi died young, and now Lin Yutong doesn't know why she died young, but you are such a good child, you point around like this.Not like it.
Fourth Master interjected: "There's no rush to settle this matter, you should investigate this Cai Xin first, and if all aspects are suitable, then it won't be too late."
But both of them knew that Qianlong would never entrust this important position to someone who was not 100% trustworthy.He would rather not move, but also to ensure 100% safety.
Unfortunately, large-scale shipbuilding, including docks, is absolutely impossible without local support.And people who have local resources and can dissociate between the two factions... It's really hard to find.Really change to someone Qianlong trusts... Even if it is Hongzhou, it will be too late for three to five years due to constraints from all aspects.
The most rare thing in this world is the word 'suitable'.
When Qianlong went back, he really checked Cai Xin carefully, and he was very satisfied in all aspects.Wu Shulai also said: "The Cai family also has a second daughter..." It is suitable for any prince.Is it not the same as marriage?It seems that the empress dowager attaches great importance to the eldest daughter of the Cai family, and she seems to be of great use.If this refers to marriage, I'm afraid it will spoil the empress dowager's arrangement.
Why don't I know?But it looks the same to which daughter is married, but in fact it is not the same at all!The difference is huge.
The second daughter of the Cai family was implicated in the incident. Her maternal grandfather, the Deng family, was the vanguard of the old school.Giving that child a marriage is tantamount to sending a very wrong signal.
Qianlong waved his hand: "Come on. Don't worry about it. Doesn't Huang Ama know which is more important?" A doctor is important, but compared with a warship or an ocean-going ship, it is nothing.Besides, Fujin of the royal family is also a doctor.Queen Mother is still a husband, who said anything?It was Huimin's office, which only looked at the women's disease hospital, including the free clinic that day, if it wasn't for the sign of Huang'enniang there, it would have caused a lot of trouble.It will only be more convenient to have the status of a royal wife, which is a good thing that benefits all parties!
Wu Shulai smiled apologetically, and talked to the emperor: "The empress dowager thinks differently from ordinary people."
Qianlong laughed, shook his head lightly, and lay down slowly.
Hong Hui also lay down, but there was a knock on the door.My mother-in-law is here.
What do you think?It turned out to be this.
Hong Hui laughed, "Emiang, there is no reason to hesitate." My own Emiang didn't know how many things she had gone through, but she still had the same idea as before, always wanting to find someone she likes.It can be seen that Ama really took good care of her mother.No matter what age I am, the youthful mentality is hard to find.He said in relief, "If there is no suitable girl, my son doesn't have that much thought on the matter of men and women. Now I have pushed a suitable one, who knows? Just get along slowly. At least this girl from the Cai family is enough. He's smart, magnanimous and measured."
The meaning is still appropriate!
Lin Yutong wanted to ask something, but he didn't ask.Honghui just laughed, "She can train|teach her, this is the blessing of my son in this life, and he is much luckier than in his previous life."
That girl from Fucha's family...in fact, Hong Hui has been worrying about her for half her life.Who wouldn't be tired?It must be a lucky thing for people like them to have someone who can share and work together.What's more, change is a long-term process, and every step is like walking on eggshells. It is much better to have someone who entrusts you behind you than to focus on two tasks.
Lin Yutong felt a little more at ease, the kind of bully who loves little white flowers silly and sweet, really!Never seen it in reality.
For Hong Hui, he doesn't have the time and energy to fall in love freely and find a girl he likes.If there happens to be one by his side, and that girl happens to be his fiancée, he will use his mind and emotion, and emotion may come at any moment.
"Emiang, I'm already very lucky." Honghui laughed, "No one knows who the destined person is until we meet. How do you know it's not her if you don't try? It's like you and Ama, you two Can you predict the future when you get married?"
What are we doing?
If you think it's okay, then turn around... "Am I talking to that girl, or are you talking?"
"Son, let's talk." Honghui smiled, "You have been tired for several days, going back and resting is nothing better than anything. My son will send you back..."
What are you giving?Can't I go back?
Honghui insisted on getting up to send her off, but the fourth master said to him outside: "Sleep with you, I'll pick her up." After taking a shower, she ran out, no need to ask, she came to Honghui's place up.
Lin Yutong said awkwardly, "I'm going back now... What are you doing after washing your hair?"
Fourth Master left, signaling Honghui to close the door.Honghui looked at his parents holding hands in the background, and said he was lying if he didn't envy her.
From a distance, he heard Ama seem to be authoritative to his mother, "Living in this world, how can there be no compromise? Even a god will not be able to do whatever he wants. You wish he could make everything perfect for him, but you and I have not been able to say so far. It's perfect. The way of heaven is incomplete, you don't understand this truth? You understand everything, but only in Honghui's matter, you have committed the problem of demanding..."
What else to say, Hong Hui couldn't hear clearly.But he smiled, a very warm smile.Er Niang always feels that she is not perfect, but she has already obtained the purest love in the world, and she should be punished by God for asking too much.Don't expect extravagance, just give hard like my mother, and don't ask for rewards, then the future can always be expected.It may not be true that there is no return!
What should I be busy with on the second day? He asked someone to spread the word about Er Niang's free medical consultation.If you do something good, you have to let others know, and now you need such a thank you.
After arranging things, when I came back, I bought mung bean cakes at the shop I often went to, and took them to find one, and found Cai Baoyi in the medicine field in the garden.
She is not afraid of the sun, she is picking medicinal materials, and now she is learning to process medicinal materials, which requires a lot of hands-on work, so it is more tiring than usual.
Xi'er followed her master closely, and when she saw that Master Duan was standing on the ground, she quickly called her daughter.
Cai Baoyi thought it was his father's business, and hurried over, "Master Duan, do you have news from the Shipping Department?"
Hong Hui pointed to the thatched pavilion, "Go there and talk."
Cai Baoyi followed, "But something is wrong."
Hong Hui looked at the little girl, although she was bright and understanding, she still had a childish look on her face.So he asked half-jokingly: "After thinking about it, what do you want to do in the future?"
Cai Baoyi was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Look at my father's arrangement, if my father arranges for me to go back to my hometown... then I will go back to my hometown to practice medicine. Every place in the Huimin Office will set up a Huimin department, I think I can still be qualified for this position .”
The arrangement she said was a marriage.
It's not a rejection of parents' orders, this is the mentality of a normal girl.So, every time Erniang meets him, she always messes up first.He knew the reason and asked, "Is the capital not good? Why do you insist on going back to your hometown?"
Cai Baoyi smiled, "It's the same everywhere. My father thinks that a stable and smooth life is good for me. I believe he chose the best destination for me after thinking a lot about it."
Honghui smiled, "That was in the past, right?"
Ok?
Hong Hui said: "Before you entered school, your father thought that arrangement was the best for you. But with your emergence and your current status, maybe your father's thinking has changed?"
Cai Baoyi was puzzled, "What does Master Duan mean?"
"Just because you are the empress dowager's direct disciple, you will be of great use, and you will not be allowed to waste your talents in a small place. Otherwise, wouldn't the empress dowager's hard work be in vain? At that time, your father realized your marriage. Not low. Although he thinks too much about this, in fact, with the identity of the empress dowager's disciple, you can have more autonomy in your marriage."
Cai Baoyi froze for a moment, then all thoughts appeared on her face.She remembered that when she went back that night, Cai Baojia said strangely through the flower wall, "I think she can become a god or a ghost? My father actually told me not to regret it? Don't be jealous of her? What is there about her rough country girl that I should be jealous of?" of……"
Hong Hui taught her to think, "Of course, your father doesn't know the empress dowager well, so his thinking is a bit biased. It just so happens that something happened in Beijing, and your father took advantage of the opportunity to propose to go to the Shipping Department... the shipping department's weight. It's clear. Your Cai family's Confucianism can be traced back to the orthodox, and you are the empress dowager's disciple, so this makes your father's position irreplaceable. At the same time, many things cannot be autonomous..."
After saying this, Cai Baoyi understood, "Referring to marriage?"
Hong Hui nodded.
Cai Baoyi was silent for a long time, and then she kept grabbing her belt with both hands, "Who?"
"Whoever you wish, you can be." Hong Hui asked, "Prince of the right age, elder brother of the clan. Those from the distant clan can't, but those from the prince's mansion can."
Cai Baoyi clenched her belt even tighter, looked up at Hong Hui, and after looking at Hong Hui for two seconds, she let go of her hand suddenly: "Master Duan is also Jinzong?"
Hong Hui raised his body backwards, "Of course."
"So it's you, Lord Duan." Cai Baoyi became determined.She was really scared to death just now.
"You have a choice." Hong Hui said, "Fourth elder brother, fifth elder brother, sixth elder brother..."
"I only know Master Duan." Cai Baoyi quickly calmed down without much shame, looked at the bag of mung bean cakes on the table, and nodded.She doesn't know if the future will be good or not, but at least, it won't be worse than any of her expectations.
Hong Hui got up, "I will go to meet your father, and before I propose marriage, I will personally come to propose marriage."
But how could the fourth master ask Honghui to go by himself, and chose a day to rest and take a bath. Lin Yutong and the fourth master took Honghui and four gifts, and went to the door of Cai's house in person.
Cai Xin was sweating when he saw the seal after receiving the post, and hurried out to greet him.In the end, I saw a slender young man getting out of the car and picking up a middle-aged couple.He had never met the old sage before, but no one else could have such a bearing.He immediately bowed, and the fourth master helped him up himself, "Get up, if this is the case, we will be embarrassed as guests."
Cai Xin, who was like a cat in his heart, quickly invited people inside, and only after they sat down did they know why.He was stunned for a moment, then looked at the young man standing beside the old saint.This young man's demeanor...is this the Duanbei Le who didn't see clearly that night?He has seen other princes before, but he didn't know that the adopted one was so outstanding.
As a father, if a girl can find such a child as her son-in-law, she will wake up from a dream.But when he thought about it deeply, he was very worried for a while. Such a child, at first glance, is not someone who has been in the hearts of the people for a long time.His identity is sensitive... In the future...
The key is, what does my daughter think.
He didn't respond directly, his palms were sweating, but he still bite the bullet and said: "The girl is spoiled by her grandmother and she is a bit willful. I hope that she will be safe and happy..."
Seeing that she was thinking about her children, Lin Yutong's expression became more relaxed, "We came here before we got married because we wanted to tell you something. First, the children are young, so maybe the girl will have other thoughts when she grows up in the future , not satisfied with the marriage. You can repent of the marriage. I will give her a decree. After repenting, I am afraid that it will affect her, so I will recognize the prince as a righteous daughter, and the royal family will grant her the status of princess, so that her marriage will not be delayed. Marriage, I also promise that no matter whether you have children or not, Duanbeile is not allowed to take concubines. If you tolerate two colors, his children have no right to inherit the title. I will, I will hand it over to a proper person for safekeeping, and keep it in the archives. Whether I am with you The presence or absence of the old sage counts."
Cai Xin knelt down with a thud, "I'm terrified!"
"Master Cai, don't misunderstand me. This is not because I have won over you. Baoyi is my direct disciple. What I hope is to give her more freedom and let her do whatever she wants like a man."
Cai Xin hurriedly said: "I... thank you for your kindness on behalf of Baoyi."
The fourth master then said: "Cai Qing, it has never been easy to open up a new road. It is impossible to go down this road overnight. The road is full of twists and turns, and there are countless victims. Cai Qing's family has to sacrifice to reunite with their families. Days have since been divided into two places. And these children have to lose something as soon as they step in. This is sacrifice!"
Cai Xin immediately said: "I... know the way to go. And always remember the way to go."
Cai Baoyi, who had been standing outside listening, suddenly burst into tears.It's not that I was wronged, but that the empty part of my heart seemed to be filled all of a sudden.The husband loves himself very much, and Duanbeile respects himself very much.Even if things turn bad, they are doing their best to give themselves more dignity.
No!Or, this should not be called decency, but freedom.
Free?
Today she 'sacrificed' her own freedom, and in the future, she must act like a husband and give freedom to more girls!
