It is said that since Aunt Xue was no longer willing to lend money to her, Mrs. Wang had no choice but to become ruthless and increase the interest rate of loan sharks, making those little people who were already poor and had no way out suffer even more. Unbelievably, for those who could not save money, Mrs. Wang even asked Zhou Rui to threaten and demand the other party to pay back the money, thus forcing the wives of several families to death. Everyone in Rongguo Mansion only dared to be angry and dared not speak out, and swallowed the bitter fruit with hatred. Who told the people that they could not fight with the officials?

At the end of the year, there was another wave of new appointments. Prince Teng, who had not returned home, was promoted to the capital of the nine provinces, and continued to patrol the border. Jia Yucun was actually transferred back to the capital to be given the post of Minister of the Ministry of War. The former Minister of the Ministry of War, Xiao Helu, is Jia Yingchun His father-in-law was promoted to Minister of the Ministry of War, and although Lin Ruhai's official position has not changed, the original crowned prince Shaofu has the title of Taifu, and the official positions of Xiao Dai and Xiao Yun have also changed. He was transferred from Haining to take up the post of conductor, just because his predecessor was still there, so he didn't have to rush away like Yang Wending and Xue Baochai did, and he could wait until after the New Year to take up his post.

"How can you be transferred to other places? Haining is far away from the capital, and it takes a month's journey to get there from the capital. What do you think?" Mrs. Linchuan heard that her second son was going to be sent abroad. From that moment in the distance, the frown between her brows has never been smoothed over.

"This is the emperor's intention. I didn't know that I would go so far, but Madam, don't worry, our sea has been extremely calm these years, and nothing will happen." Xiao Yun comforted with a guilty conscience.

"The appointment has been made. Could it be that we won't go if we don't want to go? It's just that we don't know how long the term of office will be. I think the second daughter-in-law can go with me. After all, the second child is not young anymore and can't even have children. None." Uncle Linchuan said with a sullen face, after pondering for a moment.

"I originally planned to let her follow me, and she agreed." Xiao Yun glanced sideways at Jia Yingchun, nodded and replied.

"How did this happen?! The second daughter-in-law has never experienced any hardships. I heard that the environment in Haining is not good. How dare you ask your daughter-in-law to follow you to suffer?" Mrs. Linchuan asked in disapproval.

"If she doesn't go, do you want the concubine of the second family to be born before the legitimate child? There is no such case in our family, so don't worry about it." Uncle Linchuan scolded displeasedly.

"Ma'am, I also hope to go to Haining with the second master. After all, the second master must have someone to take care of him there, so you can rest assured, right? Besides, don't people live all kinds of lives? You will get used to it." Jia Yingchun comforted her mother-in-law with a smile.

"Then I don't care about you. You can make up your own mind. You and I have already started families and businesses. Do you want me to be an old lady all day long?" When Mrs. Linchuan heard this, Jia Yingchun didn't worry about it anymore. What are you worried about?He simply turned his head away in a fit of anger.

Xiao Yun and Jia Yingchun looked at each other, they both sighed helplessly, Xiao Yun thought for a while, and then said to the two elders: "I assure you, my wife and I must go well, and more If we come back properly, it will really make a difference, it can only be a happy event, maybe the two of us will bring two or three little ones with us when we come back."

"Just coax me, old woman! Don't bother your wife's body, and you want to have two or three? Are you planning to stay there for a few years?" Mrs. Linchuan didn't ask her son to coax her. Go, this woman's family does not give birth to a hen to lay eggs, how can two or three come at once?Only Mrs. Lin Chuan forgot that there are twins and triplets in this world, but it's a pity that ordinary people don't see them often.

"Uh... Naturally, after the term of office expires, I have to make plans based on the emperor's will. How can I really stay there forever?" Xiao Yun rubbed the back of his head a little naively, thinking that he was trying to please his mother, but He refused to be fooled, not only refused to be fooled, but also retorted back with confidence, and the refutation left him speechless.

Not to mention the distress and worry of Lin Chuanbo and Xiao Dai's couple, but when Jia She's family heard that Jia Yingchun was going to work in Haining with her husband, they were all entangled and helpless.

"Why did you choose such a place? Why not go to Jinling? Haining is not too far from Jinling. Isn't there a guard there?" Jia Lian asked suspiciously.

"Naturally there will be no guards in Jinling. There are government offices and inspectors in that place. How could the court do more? And I think Haining is also very good. It is close to Hangzhou and Suzhou. If I take a rest, I can still take a bath." Take Yinger out for a walk. Yinger said before that she wants to go to many places to see the scenery. I think that for at least a few years, I will not be able to take her anywhere. The only thing I can do is to work in other places. Take her with you." Xiao Yun explained tactfully.

"But can Ying girl's body and bones adapt to long-distance travel? Not to mention that the journey is extremely long, not to mention that after arriving there, we don't know the place of life well. If someone bullies her, we won't know." Mrs. Xing Worried and authentic.

"That's right! Don't look at the girl Ying who is very assertive. In fact, she can only talk about it. But when you go to Haining, why can't you be as considerate as you are at home, but... we You can't tell Ying girl not to go just because of this..." Wang Xifeng can understand why Jia Yingchun must go.

"It's nothing. If you really have a child, it's great. Let's ask someone to pick up their mother and child and return to the capital first. Besides, the emperor may not let the son-in-law stay in Haining for too long. You don't have to worry about it being too early. The boat will go straight when it arrives at the bridge." However, Jia She knew that there were many islands in the sea off Haining. They used to be uninhabited islands. Later, with the development of maritime trade, some incidents were inevitable. Those pirates who were used to committing crimes at sea hid in small islands. On the island, although those people are not powerful in force, they are superior in numbers. They harass the fishermen along the coast from time to time. He has seen similar cases several times before. This time, the emperor specially sent some new generals to serve along the coast. , more or less want to train them.

"My father-in-law said that when I really have to, I must give priority to Ying'er's safety, so you don't have to worry about it." Xiao Yun replied.

"It's not enough to protect Ying girl alone! You have to take good care of yourself. Don't forget that you are husband and wife, and husband and wife should be one body. There is no question of who comes first." Wang Xifeng quickly refuted.

"That's right! Even though our family will not be able to see each other for several years, it's okay to send a letter once in a while, you guys! If you have something to do, write a letter back to report that you are safe, don't call We are all worried." Jia Lian raised his glass to Xiao Yun and his wife.

"Don't worry, brother, I will write letters from time to time to report to you that you are safe, and if I see something delicious and fun, I will definitely remember to bring some back to you." Jia Yingchun hurriedly said.

"You don't need to spend that kind of extra money. Who knows how much money you will spend there? My sister-in-law's salary is limited, and your dowry shops are all in the capital... By the way! I remember one thing, last time I seem to have heard that there are a few fields in Huzhou for sale. I will ask someone to ask if I can buy them tomorrow. Huzhou is close to Haining. Live, you can all live a little richer than others, and my sister should bring a few more maids, but here is not enough manpower, so I have to add a few more when I go there. My sister-in-law is going to be an official, and you are an official wife. It can't be too bad, otherwise, who knows if the people there will look down on you? I heard that people in many places bully people who go out of town. If you choose a maid after you go to Haining, you have to look carefully, so as not to be misunderstood. People deceived you, by the way, will Nanny Zhou go with you? Of course it would be best if she could go, but after all, she is already old, and it seems that it is not easy for her to go so far with you. It's okay to help manage your yard." Wang Xifeng said while pondering.

"Sister-in-law really deserves to be a good housekeeper. It only takes a while, and you immediately come up with one set of methods after another." Jia Yingchun looked at Wang Xifeng in a daze, she felt that she had such a lazy temperament , I'm afraid I won't be able to have half of Wang Xifeng's ability in my whole life... This is a natural talent for housekeeping! !

"Hey, how is it that I am capable? But practice makes perfect. When you do more and get used to it, you will naturally be able to do the same as me." Wang Xifeng replied with some embarrassment.

"It's not that you just learned about your sister-in-law's ability today, but it can be summed up in one sentence, when you go out, be careful in everything, and besides, it's useless to talk too much." Jia She finally said.

Xiao Yun and Jia Yingchun left Jia's mansion at noon after listening to Jia Amnesty's and others' exhortations, and then they went to the second prince's mansion, Lin's mansion and other places where they had frequent contacts on a daily basis, because Lin Ruhai worked in the Jiangnan area. For many years, Xiao Yun made an agreement with him to visit the residence sometime after the year. Although the emphasis of civil and military positions is different, there are some customs and customs that need to be understood.

During the New Year, Uncle Linchuan and Mrs. Uncle Linchuan stuffed Xiao Yun and his wife with a lot of private money in different ways. Tell her to remember the details of how the Zhuangtou will send the rent to her, and find someone to explain clearly to the Zhuangtou. The embroidered oranges are written down one by one without mentioning them.

Because the journey is far away, Jia Yingchun didn't plan to go out with big bags and small bags. Even for the accompanying people, she only picked the embroidered orange who married Mo Yun last year. Two second-class maids, one named Yuegui and the other named Yuerong, while Nanny Zhou and Lianhuaer were in charge of guarding the yard. Based on the principle that women sing and husbands follow, Mo Yun naturally wanted to go too, so Xiao Yunwai's study The left-behind Shuying is in charge of taking care of the matter, and there is another young man named Yanzhu, who is a newly-arrived family son, and is also in the team.
