The next day, Song Yingbai and Cheng Dongyi led Yao Lingyao to the Jinyiwei Yamen as usual, and after entering the gate, they each separated to do their own things.

After entering his own room, as soon as he let go of the unit, it rushed to the front of the almanac, and scratched down yesterday's almanac with its paws, revealing a brand new page.

Song Yingbai discovered that this dog has a different kind of attachment to the almanac, and the first thing he does every day is to tear up the almanac, and he will never forget it.

In order to take care of its height, Fang Jiamo even lowered the almanac.

After tearing up the almanac, it just lay down in a corner, except for occasional trips to the toilet, it didn't move for a day.

Song Yingbai started a busy day at work, sent someone to investigate Ma Yongyan's case, and found no new clues, but this month, he cleared up a few backlogs, which can be regarded as some achievements.

Around noon, someone knocked on the door, and Fang Jiamo went out to deal with it. The two of them walked away after a few words.

About a quarter of an hour later, Fang Jiamo came back and said with a smile, "My lord, there is someone from your hometown."

Song Yingbai was so happy that he almost jumped up, he had been unlucky for so long and finally a good thing came, he was looking forward to the people from his hometown at last, he walked out the door in three steps at a time, and hurried to the gate of the yamen, he is now In the true sense, "food and clothing for parents." Or "food and clothing for parents."

Standing by the yamen was a man in his forties, Yu Liu, the second housekeeper of his family.

When Yu Liu saw Song Yingbai, he came up to him and said with a smile, "Fifth Young Master, you have grown taller again."

Song Yingbai looked again and again yesterday, "Uncle Yu, are you here alone?"

"No, there are three guys here besides me. I just think it's not good to come here to find you. There are too many people, so I let them all wait at the inn." Yu Liu looked Song Yingbai up and down, and said with emotion: "Fifth Young Master, The master was very happy when he heard that you have established a hundred households, not only asked me to bring you silver, but also brought you another gift."

"Are my parents okay? How are your brothers and sisters? Are you all okay?"

"It's all good." Yu Liu said with a smile: "Don't worry about this. I'm here to let you know that we're here. I'll pick you up after you leave the office. Let's go to the inn together. I won't bother you with your business now." Oh, this Jinyiwei yamen is so imposing, young master, you are so powerful that you can be an official here."

Song Yingbai exchanged a few words with Yu Liu, parted temporarily, and returned to the office beaming with joy, looking forward to letting go of the government with all his heart.

Relying on his parents at home, and relying on his parents when he goes out, with the money sent by his family, he should be able to live a comfortable life.

His father sent him to the capital to be a Jinyiwei before, maybe he didn't expect him to make such a wonderful result. Seeing his promotion, he immediately began to support him happily.

When he was released from the yamen, Song Yingbai asked Fang Jiamo to give Cheng Dong a message, telling him to go home first, he would not go back to eat at night if he had something to do, and then happily ran out of the yamen with the dog.

Sure enough, as soon as he went out, he saw Yu Liuhe's three familiar guys waiting not far away, and the four went to the inn talking and laughing.

Song Yingbai had been on a diet for so long, and finally he was looking forward to someone from his hometown, which meant that someone had paid the bill, and immediately ordered a few delicious dishes to feast on.

Yu Liu gave Song Yingbai some food from time to time, and said with some distress: "Fifth Young Master, it seems that you have suffered a lot in the capital." Especially when I heard that Fifth Young Master is staying at a friend's house, I feel even more uncomfortable. After a big fight, you know the master's temper. If you don't ask for it, the master will not be ashamed to give you money. Fortunately, you have been promoted this time, and the master will be angry with you even if he wants to I can't get up."

Song Yingbai really wanted to argue, he didn't quarrel with his father before he went to Beijing, it should be called his father unilaterally insulting him.

Song Yingbai said: "If I don't make any achievements, I really have no face to contact my family."

At this time, Yu Liu took out a letter and a red lacquered wooden box, "This is a letter from the master, please read it and count it."

Song Yingbai shook off the letter, opened it, and read it. The letter was written by his father himself. The attitude between the lines was very good, which was a bit different from the father he remembered. He continued his efforts, and said that he asked the second housekeeper to bring him 300 taels of silver, telling him not to wrong himself, and just buy whatever he wants to eat.

Yu Liu pushed the wooden box towards Song Yingbai, "This is silver, count it."

"no need."

"No, it must be counted."

Song Yingbai opened the wooden box, and took a look at the gleaming silver ingots inside, which were of excellent quality, one ingot was twelve taels, and there were thirty neatly.

His father is really a big spender. One must know that his annual salary is only 30 taels, and his father paid him ten years' salary in one lump sum.

This father is dear.

Song Yingbai thought to himself, if his father was here in front of him, he must give his father a hug and say from the bottom of his heart, Dad, I love you.

Yu Liu smiled and said, "Fifth young master, this is not the only thing the master has given you." As he said that, he got up and opened the door, and pulled in a young man with delicate features, skin like creamy fat, and shy eyes, like a little girl.

Song Yingbai stared at him with puzzled eyes, "This is..."

"This is reserved for Caifeng who is here to serve you, come, call the young master."

Caifeng raised her eyes, and called out in a crisp voice, "Master."

Song Yingbai frowned, and a sentence floated in his mind, this is not his father's style. Although his father doesn't like warriors, he doesn't like sissies either. Anyway, when he was at home, the servants at home couldn't find any such type .

Yu Liu explained: "You are alone in the capital, and you have to do laundry, cooking, sewing, and mending. You can do all this work." The fifth young master is not married, so it is not appropriate to arrange a concubine's room. Having a baby is a hassle.

Song Yingbai has long been tired of washing clothes, and it is a strong attraction for someone to wash and cook for him.

"Anyway, Caifeng is a man, he is more able to endure hardship than a woman, and he is easier to handle." Yu Liudao: "You can stay here."

Song Yingbai thought about it, and said indifferently: "All right."

Caifeng immediately kowtowed to Song Yingbai, and stood behind him in a well-behaved manner.

Song Yingbai had dinner with Yu Liu, and stayed in the inn together that night, got up the next day, stretched and opened the door, just about to ask Xiaoer to prepare washing water, when he saw Caifeng standing at the door with a basin of water, She said softly, "Master, you got up, the washing water is here."

Song Yingbai was taken aback, "Okay, come in and put it down."

When Song Yingbai went to the washbasin to wash his face, he caught a glimpse of Caifeng making the quilt for him out of the corner of his eye.

When he finished washing his face, Caifeng finished folding the quilt, opened the window to let in the wind, and had already gone downstairs. Song Yingbai came to the bed while wiping his face. When he took a look, he was shocked, "It's just an inn, there is no need to fold it like this." Let's tidy up."

At this time, Caifeng came in with the breakfast, put it on the table, and backed out.

Song Yingbai sat down at the table, looked at the simple and exquisite breakfast, and couldn't help raising his eyebrows, "Life is more convenient if someone takes care of you."

At this time, at the corner of the stairs outside the door, Yu Liuzheng and three fellows looked at me and you, with gloomy brows.

"Housekeeper, we really don't want to tell the young master the truth."

"The master ordered not to say anything, and no one is allowed to say anything, just keep your own mouth shut! Let's leave today, don't make any trouble."

"But the young master is so happy to see the master's letter, and it makes people feel distressed. He doesn't know that the master wants to adopt him."

"Why are you distressed, the young master will be better in the future!" Yu Liu pushed them downstairs, "Go and pack your luggage, don't dawdle."

Cai Feng, who was standing outside Song Yingbai's room, looked at the housekeeper and his party going downstairs, showing complicated expressions.

Song Yingbai said goodbye to the butler and his party every time he was rich, happily led the dog to the yamen, and ordered Fang Jiamo to ask someone to rent a house for him. There were only two requirements, the first being closer to the yamen, and the second being able Check in same day.

Jinyiwei is indeed an efficient department. It was found before it was released. It was near Cheng Dong's family. It was a single-family courtyard. No one rented it because the asking price was a little high. This time, I met Song Yingbai who was not short of money. up.

Everything is easy to handle when you have money, Song Yingbai asked Cheng Dongyi to pick out two strong school captains, and followed him to purchase for a while, bought all the household furniture that was roughly needed, and lived in that night.

In order to thank Cheng Dongyi and the other two for their help, Song Yingbai, who took the approach of being close to the people, left the three of them to eat and asked Caifeng to cook something simple.

Cai Feng was agile, and soon six dishes were put on the table, namely crucian carp in sauce, braised pork, drunk pork ribs, stewed mutton, braised white fungus and crispy tofu.

Although they are all home-cooked dishes, you can tell from the appearance that this cook has good skills, bright colors, rich soup, and clean dishes.

Song Yingbai took a sip first, and the ingredients were delicious, delicious and pure. Sure enough, after taking a sip, Cheng Dong also sighed: "My lord, the cook in your family is too good, I think it's even better than the big restaurant. .My future daughter-in-law can have [-]% of the craftsmanship, and I will burn the incense."

Seeing his servant being praised, Song Yingbai's face was bright, and he said to Caifeng who was waiting at the side: "Cheng Xiaoqi praised you, let's sit down and eat together."

Caifeng's cheeks were flushed, she kept shaking her head and said, "No way."

Song Yingbai was also not good at forcing good women and men. Seeing that he was in such a difficult situation, he let him go down first, and then sent everyone away after eating with Cheng Dongyi and the others.

When I got back to the house, I saw Yao Lingyao eating on the porch. At first glance, there were diced meat, vegetables and eggs, which looked very nutritious.

"Master, the bath water is ready." At this moment, Caifeng came out from the inner room and raised the curtain to welcome him in.

As soon as Song Yingbai entered the room, he saw that the tub was steaming, with a towel on the rim of the tub, everything was ready, and on the shelf next to it was a change of clothes that Yu Liucong brought to him from his hometown.

This, this is indeed very convenient, and it really makes a difference when someone waits on you.

"Master, use..."

"No need." Song Yingbai knew what he was going to ask, so she declined in advance and finished washing by herself.

When he opened the door, he found Caifeng spreading the quilt for him in the bedroom.

After Cai Feng finished her work, she turned around and came out to meet him, "Master, do you have any orders?"

"No, you should rest too."

"What would you like to eat tomorrow morning?"

"whatever."

Cai Feng nodded and backed out.Song Yingbai went to bed and lay in his new home, full of emotions, is it difficult, is he going to live a good life?

It should be, I am a young master from a wealthy family, and I am from a hundred households. Why do I feel so unreal when I live a good life? There is no need to doubt that the good life is coming.

The next day, Song Yingbai woke up together, the wash water and breakfast were all ready, and he no longer needed to go to the street stall to mix with the northwest wind for a bite.

After a day of work full of energy, when he came back from the Yamen and entered the door, he found that the willow tree in the yard had been trimmed neatly, and all the branches were gone.

A clothesline was pulled from the tree trunk to dry the clothes he took off yesterday.

There is an extra wooden kennel under the corridor, needless to say it is for Yao Lingyao.

Entering the house, the tables, chairs and benches are spotless, shining in the setting sun, and there are melon seeds and various dried fruits on the table in the main room.

He sniffed, but he didn't see the faint smell of damp that existed in the house yesterday because it had been unoccupied for a long time. Instead, there was a slight smell of incense, which was very faint, not the kind of strong aroma that made people feel uncomfortable. Seems like nothing, just right.

And Cai Feng was sitting in the next room doing needlework, mending a flying fish suit that had come off for him.

At this time, Cai Feng found Song Yingbai, put down the work in hand, and said: "I'll get you the regular clothes, change the flying fish clothes." Then he got up and took out the home clothes that he had ironed earlier.

After Song Yingbai changed into his regular clothes, he found that he had nothing to do, the only thing he could do was to wait for the meal to be served, unlike before when he cleaned things up by himself, wasting unnecessary time.

He was freed from the tedious housework, and could use all the time available to think about official matters.

It is not money that increases efficiency, but money that increases efficiency.

Caifeng finished preparing the dishes and rice, poured him a small glass of sake, and was about to back down.

Song Yingbai hurriedly said: "Just you and me plus a dog, let's sit down and eat together."

Caifeng shook her head hastily, "No, master and servant can't eat at the same table, don't break the rules." Said and hurriedly retreated.

Song Yingbai didn't force it either, the habits formed by one person are not so easy to change.

So here comes the question, where did the rules of Caifeng be cultivated? To put it bluntly, his family is a wealthy landlord who opened a few shops by the way. They have a little money, but they definitely can't train servants like Caifeng.

His father bought it from outside specially for him?I think too much about him.

After the meal, Cai Feng came to clean up the dishes, and he asked straightforwardly, "Where did you work before?"

"Returning to the young master, I used to work in the Governor's Mansion of Dingnan, but you are my master now, and I will serve you with all my heart."

Sure enough, he came from a high-ranking official's house. Just say, ordinary people can't afford this kind of servant, "Then how did you come to my house?"

"Sent there."

"By whom?"

Caifeng buried her head low, and said in a low voice, "Master won't let me talk about it."

It was actually his father's order, so he didn't force others, "Then I know."

Suddenly, he thought of something, since Caifeng's cooking is so delicious, why did he invite Li Zhen to eat outside?

It's better to have a family banquet, after all, the two of them have had a "friendship" before.

If you don't make a lot of ostentation and are less outrageous, maybe the effect will be better.

"By the way, Caifeng, prepare yourself. I will invite an important person to my house for dinner in three days. You should prepare well and show off your skills. Don't be afraid of wasting money on any ingredients you want to buy. Go ahead and buy them."

Cai Feng nodded hurriedly, "Yes, don't worry."

Song Ying planned to find Li Zhen tomorrow, and made an appointment in advance for him to have dinner at home.

The thought of facing Li Zhen made him a little nervous.

-

Li Zhen drew out the Xiuchun knife, and aimed at the rope stretched by two people opposite him, with one blow, the rope was cut off.

"No, it's not strong enough, let's make it again." Li Zhen put away the knife. These ropes were prepared for entering the desert. Now it seems that the quality is not good enough, and other tools are not prepared properly. It seems that this year will not catch up with the best entry. It's time for the desert, probably until next year.

He told everyone to go down, and was about to sit back on the chair when someone came to report, "Song Baihu asks to see you."

Li Zhen's heart skipped a beat, although he didn't know why he was skipping, he said coldly, "Call him in."

Soon, Song Yingbai came in with a smile on his face, "See my lord."

Li Zhen pretended to glance at him casually, "Just tell me what's going on."

"Well... we'll be on vacation the day after tomorrow, and I've moved to a new house. I'd like to ask your lord to come and sit with me for a while."

Li Zhen glanced at Chuqiu, implying that Song Yingbai had moved, why didn't I know.

Chu Qiu looked away and thought, it's clear that you said you don't want to report trivial matters.

However, Li Zhen was somewhat happy in his heart. It turned out that he had moved out of Cheng Dong's family, "Where did you get the money to move?"

"My hometown sent someone to bring some money, but it's not much, and it's not a big house, just a small courtyard."

Li Zhen thought for a while, "I have an appointment with someone to hunt the day after tomorrow."

"That's it..." Song Yingbai was a little disappointed, "But it's really nothing, I just prepared some home-cooked food, and I would like to invite my lord to sit down and catch up on the old days."

If it were another person talking about reminiscing about the past with Li Zhen, he would probably have been reprimanded for being bold, but he and Song Yingbai did have old stories to follow, and many things did happen between them.

"However, I think the weather the day after tomorrow is not good. I'm afraid hunting will not take place. I'll send someone to refuse it."

Song Yingbai was overjoyed and said with a smile, "I look forward to your visit."

Li Zhen hadn't talked to him so naturally for a while, and seeing Song Yingbai's smile, she couldn't help laughing, "Just tell me the time, I'll be there then."

"I'll be waiting for you at home all day after tomorrow." Song Yingbai said with a smile, "You can come anytime."

Li Zhen nodded with a smile.Song Yingbai accepts as soon as he sees a deal, he doesn't want to have long nights and dreams, so he made an agreement and left quickly.

When he left, Li Zhen continued to look down at the documents, with a smile on his lips, he couldn't help but think in his heart, does he cook the home-cooked dishes himself?He was such a fool.
