In a small boat not far away, Daiyu was leaning against the half-opened window, with a bit of sadness on her exquisitely elegant face.

Zhu Ying poured tea for Daiyu: "Miss, are you thirsty? Let's have a cup of rose and chrysanthemum tea."

Daiyu nodded, and didn't ask anyone to wait on her. She took the tea cup and ate it slowly.

She has a poor spleen and stomach, so she can't drink tea. In the past, she just used some plain water to quench her thirst. However, the plain water was too weak, so the brother took the trouble to make some brewed drinks for her. It can warm and nourish the body, and the taste is also good. For special occasions It's not rude, this rose chrysanthemum tea is one of them, it is the most soothing to the liver and relieves stagnation, nourishes the heart and blood, has the effect of improving eyesight, and can also beautify the skin. I heard that the imperial concubine in the palace likes rose tea, Dai Yu She is still young, and she has no obsession with color, but she is tired of reading and drawing, and she is always depressed recently, so the servants often make this for her.

In addition, there are jasmine tea, white chrysanthemum and wolfberry tea, etc., which were prepared by Yinzuo's experiment. Even the finished product and the prescription were sent to Yangzhou for Daiyu. After a while, the emperor was angry and punished him for copying many books.

Thinking of Yinzuo, Daiyu's face brightened a bit, she held a teacup and smiled at Xueyan, "You drink one too, and then continue to tell me about the Southern Tour."

Zhu Ying jokingly said: "Where is the need for Mr. Xueyan to do it himself, and let the slaves serve it."

As expected, Xueyan didn't move, put on airs and ate the tea that Zhu Ying poured, cleared her throat, pretended to be a storyteller, and continued: "Last time we said that the royal boat arrived in Jiangning, and all the people greeted it. Yan. They brought local delicacies to the emperor to taste, because of the large number of people, the things they brought filled the entire wharf! Before the emperor's southern tour, he told the officials and gentlemen in the court that "everything is not taken from the people", so naturally they can't take the common people things, but he can't bear to win the hearts of the people, so what should we do?"

Xueyan is young and has a lively personality, and her speech is crisp and crisp. Daiyu likes to listen to her stories the most. It happens that Xueyan has an older brother who is Lin Ruhai's long-term follower, so she often asks him about interesting things outside. Brother Xueyan knows She wanted to tell Daiyu, so she picked up something innocuous and said it to her.

Now the most talked about in Jiangnan is the emperor's southern tour. Xueyan is just picking up people's teeth, but it is very new to Daiyu and Zhu Ying, who are trapped in the boudoir, and they listen to it with great interest.

Hearing that Kangxi was in such a predicament, Daiyu immediately tightened her handkerchief, and Zhu Ying asked, "What should I do?"

Xueyan didn't say anything, she held up her handkerchief and said with a smile: "The little girl is new here, penniless, she only has a few stories to make people smile, thank you for your support today, if you are happy to hear it, I will reward some big boys to eat Let's have a meal!"

He has learned to perform art again!

Zhu Ying was so angry that she took out a few copper coins from her purse and stuffed them into her: "Here you are, please hurry up, do you want to panic me to death?"

Daiyu also asked someone to reward her with broken silver from a small box.

Xueyan didn't refuse, Daiyu would reward her every time she finished telling a story, but now it's even more interesting, Xueyan took care of Daiyu, knowing that she didn't care.

As for Zhu Ying, she will use the money to buy two meals in the kitchen and share them with her, so she won't be at a disadvantage.

Xueyan accepted the reward, weighed it in his hand, and said with a thumbs up: "The officials are arrogant! Then let's continue. The emperor can't take things from the people, and he can't bear to win the hearts of the people. This is a small thing." The problem can't be difficult for the emperor saint, what should he do? - He took one from the mountain of fruits, and another pinch from the river of rice, expressing that he accepted the hearts of the people and returned Making an exception and living in Jiangning for a day, not only did not violate the original intention, but also took care of the people's wishes, wouldn't the two be compatible?!"

"Sure enough," Daiyu clapped her hands together and praised.

Zhu Ying listened fascinated, and said with a smile: "If we do the same in Yangzhou, can we stay with the emperor for a while?"

Daiyu said: "The emperor is busy with government affairs, how can he stay out all the time?"

"That's right," Xue Yan said with a smile, "So since Jiangning, the emperor refused to stop the boat easily, because he was afraid that such a thing would happen again! If our Yangzhou is not too important, I am afraid that he would not stop for half a day."

Naturally, these were random speculations by the common people, and it was just unnecessary for Kangxi to stop sailing, but obviously, such interesting rumors were more talked about than the facts.Fortunately, although it was a rumor, there was no harm. On the contrary, many people felt that the emperor, who was frightened by the enthusiasm of the people, was very kind, and became closer and more respectful to the royal family.

Xueyan finished talking about Jiangning, took another sip of water, and said with a smile: "When it comes to the southern tour, I have to talk about Hangzhou. We all know that Shengjia stayed there for eight days, and it was the best time to stay during the whole southern tour. The longest place, do you know that there is a kind of fetish in Hangzhou?"

"Fairy?"

"That's right, that's right," Xue Yan said mysteriously, "You all know about such things~"

Daiyu and Zhu Ying looked at each other, since it was related to Yujia, and they both knew that it must have been mentioned by Sixth Brother. Zhu Ying failed to guess several times, and Daiyu tentatively asked: "Could it be a wheelchair?"

"That's exactly it!" Xueyan said happily, "The girl is still smart, the maidservant was the same as Zhu Ying at that time, she couldn't even guess it right!"

Zhu Ying: "..."

Daiyu laughed and said, "No one in our house uses this. You haven't seen it before, so it's possible that you didn't expect it for a while."

"But the girl hasn't seen it before, so I guessed it right away." Xueyan turned into a Daiyu fan and continued after blowing rainbow farts for a while, "I heard that the emperor inspected and rewarded the sergeants in Hangzhou last time on his southern tour. Send an imperial doctor to check the pulse, and those who have old people in the family will reward gold and silver. This time is also the same, but this time it is a little different, this time there is a young boy in the pulse checking team..."

Zhu Ying was refreshed when she heard this, and Daiyu also sat up slightly.

I think this young doctor is a senior brother.

"...Little boys are special. What's more special is that they carry a lot of wheelchairs... At that time, everyone didn't know it was called a wheelchair. They just thought it was weird, and they still murmured in their hearts. It’s like playing house... No one dared to ask the child to check the pulse, so Brother Liu had to follow the other imperial physicians. Those sergeants and family members were not stupid. Looking at it, they thought, hey! This child’s medical skills seem to be good. !"

"At this moment, they haven't changed their minds until they heard about the identity of the sixth elder brother. Good guy, all the strong-backed men cried tears of joy! How touched! The prince has such a noble status, the emperor actually sent him to give it to him. These people see a doctor! Everyone was shocked, how could they choose the medical skills of the sixth elder brother, and they all wished to die under the silver needle of the sixth elder brother to show their determination to be loyal to the emperor and patriotic!"

Daiyu was about to die of laughter from Xueyan, and she reprimanded: "Tell the story when you tell the story, don't make trouble!"

"Yes, I know I'm wrong." Xueyan grinned, "In short, everyone went to Brother Six for a doctor's consultation, and they didn't want to see a cure. They just expressed their gratitude in this way. Of course, Brother Six is ​​very good at medicine. People are pleasantly surprised and admired. Let’s talk about this magical wheelchair!”

Yes, how did the wheelchair become a fetish?

"There's a story here," Xueyan began to sell the lawsuit again, "Didn't everyone go to the sixth elder brother for consultation? There are generals, soldiers, and military members, and among them is the old one who is paralyzed on the bed. I can't even move, and I have to be carried to participate in this grand event. Now I am in front of Brother Liu. Brother Liu took his pulse and said that I can't cure your body, old man. I can only try to improve your body. The quality of life, so that you can go out and walk by yourself in the future. The man was dumbfounded, saying that I am paralyzed, and if I can go out, it is cured?"

Speaking of this, everyone already understood what will happen later, Xueyan smiled and said: "...Yes, it is a wheelchair! Sixth elder brother gave the old man a wheelchair, and the old man turned the wheel on the spot and went home! Now There is a lot of rumors outside, and it is said that the wheelchair is a miracle that can cure all diseases!"

Daiyu commented: "It's a bit exaggerated, but wheelchairs do benefit the common people."

"That's not it, I just thought that if I'm old and paralyzed on the bed, I can't do anything every day, I just look at the three-acre land above my head, and I have to be served by others, what's the point of living?" " Xueyan laughed, "I heard that many old people in Hangzhou would rather not reward gold and silver, but just use a wheelchair instead. Brother Liu didn't prepare much, so he was in a hurry for a few days!"

Daiyu listened to these stories and tried hard to outline Yinzuo's appearance in her mind, but it was all in vain.

When we first met, she was too young. Four years later, the memory of that time has long been blurred. If it hadn't been for these years of correspondence, Daiyu might have forgotten Yin Zuo as well.She knew Yinzuo from the lines in Yinzuo's words and from the people in the house who talked about what happened back then, but she knew that it was just her imagination.

What does a real brother look like?

I don't know if I can have a chance to meet him?

Will he...will he like himself?

Daiyu felt inexplicably uneasy, she rested her chin on her hand and looked out the window, somehow thinking of her dead mother and her soon-to-be-parting father, her eyes couldn't help but fog up.

Zhu Ying and Xueyan looked at each other, not knowing what to do for a moment.

At this time, a woman opened the door curtain and came in. The woman was about [-] years old, with fair skin, a face like a full moon, and a smile on her lips. The nurturing mother, Ning mother.

She was obviously extremely majestic, as soon as Xue Yan and Zhu Ying came in, they greeted each other together: "Nurse Ning."

Nurse Ning nodded with a smile, walked to Daiyu and said, "The wind on the water is hard, girl, take care of yourself and put on a cloak."

Daiyu said angrily: "I've said it several times, Zhu Ying and Xueyan should just do these small things. Why do you do it yourself again?"

"Idle is also idle", Nanny Ning replied with a smile, after staying in the palace for so many years, she knows how to find her position best.She is the nurturing mother invited by the Lin family, and it is of course the most important thing to teach and raise girls, but she can't treat herself as the deputy master because of this.

Nanny Ning bent down to put the cloak on Daiyu, her eyes glanced out of the window inadvertently, and her movements suddenly stopped.

Daiyu smiled and said, "What's the matter?"

Nanny Ning hesitated and said: "This servant seems to have seen Brother Six."

what?

Daiyu was taken aback, and subconsciously tightened the handkerchief in her hand, unable to react for a moment, she just felt her mind was blank.

Just now I was thinking about whether I could see him, but did I see him so soon?

Xueyan excitedly said: "Really, tell me to take a look, which one is it?"

The matter of Daiyu and Yinzuo can be hidden from others, but those closest to her know about it. Over the years, Yinzuo has been almost a legend in the eyes of Xueyan, and now she is naturally curious, so she leans to the window to look out, Can't help exclaiming: "Is that it?"

She excitedly pulled Daiyu: "Girl, take a look, Brother Six is ​​so handsome!"

"Be quiet, when will you be more stable?" Daiyu reprimanded lightly, but still mustered up the courage to look in the direction of her finger——

Not far away, on the imperial ship that was guarded by groups, there was a young boy standing on the deck. The distance was too far, and Daiyu couldn't see the man's eyebrows, but his figure was straight, and there was a sense of dignity just standing there. gas.

Daiyu suddenly had some doubts, is this person really the sixth elder brother? She shouldn't be like this brother in her imagination.

At this moment, the young man seemed to have heard their movements and looked from afar. The next moment his indifference disappeared, he laughed happily, raised his hand and waved at them.

Daiyu breathed a sigh of relief, and subconsciously smiled.

That's right, brother.No matter how cold and aloof and unapproachable it seems, if you really know him, you will know that there will never be such a warm and sunny person again!

The two dared not attract attention, and only looked at each other from a distance across the sparkling river.

The sun shines on the water surface, refracting mottled light and shadow.Daiyu looked at Yinzuo, and suddenly felt that she was back four years ago, in a similar season, and also separated by such a long distance, and her senior brother was also standing on the deck looking at her.The difference is that that time was a farewell, but this time it was a reunion. At that time, he was still a thin child, but now he has grown into a handsome and handsome boy, exactly as she imagined.

For some reason, the fear that had been lingering in Daiyu's heart these days suddenly faded away.She is not alone, at least she has a brother with her.

There were many people on the pier, and the two quickly waved goodbye. Daiyu closed the window of the cabin, and Yinzuo also looked away.

He's kind of happy.The little dumpling from childhood has grown into a graceful and beautiful girl.She didn't look like the weak Liu Fufeng in the book, she was thin but not sickly, and there was sadness in her brows but not mourning, much better than the miserable appearance she imagined.

Yin Zuo breathed a sigh of relief.

He sent people to Deqing and asked, "Can you send a letter to Miss Lin?"

Deqing: "..." You are embarrassing me, Fat Tiger!

Yin Zuo frowned: "You are from Khan Ama, you must have a way?"

Deqing: "... If you don't want to make a fuss, you can only take advantage of the time when there are many people on the pier. We are about to leave. If you want to send it today, hurry up, or you will have to wait for the next time to dock."

When Yinzuo heard the words, he took out a pen and paper and wrote a letter. He didn't want to embarrass Deqing, but he was worried because Daiyu was not in a good mood.

At the same time, on Daiyu's boat, Lin Ruhai waved away the crowd and spoke to Daiyu alone.

The father and daughter sat opposite each other, Lin Ruhai looked at her daughter's immature face, and tears welled up in her eyes: "The emperor has agreed to my father's request, and you can go north with the Yuzhou later! The father has already said what I told you. It’s been a long time, and now I’ll tell you again.”

With tears in her eyes, Daiyu said, "Yes."

"Going to the capital now, don't be afraid. The Duke's Mansion is certainly prominent, but our family's ancestors have not been inferior in terms of background. Besides, as a father, he has a little face in front of the emperor and a little bit of power in the officialdom. You It’s no worse than anyone else, if you go there, just live with your back straight.”

"I know you are thoughtful, don't think that living in someone else's house means being dependent on others. I have prepared 5000 taels of silver bills for my father, which is enough for you to eat for a year. You just look at the situation and give it to your grandmother, it doesn't matter. In short, it's not in vain. It's just people."

Lin Daiyu frowned: "Father..."

Lin Ruhai waved his hand: "I know what you're going to say. Your grandmother loves you, but she's too old to be so considerate. There are many masters in that mansion, so they must have their own thoughts. I'd rather spend a little money for my father than to take care of you." I don’t want you to be involved in right and wrong, so you should be at peace with your father’s heart.”

Daiyu answered with a handkerchief.

Lin Ruhai: "The other thing is, a few years ago, my father asked someone to set up a grocery store near the Duke's Mansion, selling pens, ink, paper and inkstones, needles and thread brains, rouge gouache, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar. What do you need? , don’t bother the mansion, just ask someone to go to Qianmen Street to find Quandeji, no matter what you want, the shopkeeper will prepare it and send it to you, don’t bother, this shop is opened for you. The shopkeeper is Lin Butler son, he is the most reliable when he is old in handling affairs."

"Although our family has lived in Gusu and Yangzhou for a long time, we still have a house in the capital. My father has asked someone to clean it in advance. If you... don't want to live in Jia's house, go back to our house. My father has sent someone to guard it all the time. , you can stay anytime. Don’t let yourself be wronged, remember?”

"I remember," Daiyu's face was already full of tears, and she threw herself into her father's arms with a choked up answer.

Lin Ruhai was also crying while holding his daughter. If possible, he didn't want her to go to Beijing. He didn't know the situation of Jia's family. Now that he knew the filth in the house, how could he rest assured that his daughter was left alone under the fence?

Even though he has thought about everything and planned it, he can't rest assured, for fear that his daughter will be wronged by not thinking about it.

Even though he felt a little inappropriate, Lin Ruhai still gritted his teeth and said, "Stay away from the capital for my father, if you encounter any difficulties... go to the sixth elder brother for help, shopkeeper Lin can help you pass the news, you brothers and sisters One game, he will never stand idly by."

Lin Daiyu nodded with tears in her eyes: "I know."

Lin Ruhai didn't want to know what she knew, thought about it carefully, and made sure there was nothing missing, then stroked her daughter's hair and said, "It's getting late, so father... let's go."

Daiyu was so sad that she almost cried into tears holding her handkerchief, unable to say goodbye.

How can Lin Ruhai be willing to part with it, but the parting is a foregone conclusion, Lin Ruhai can only sigh: "Don't cry, you must take care of yourself, only when you are well, can you be at ease as a father."

Daiyu nodded with tears in her eyes, and told Lin Ruhai earnestly.

It was getting late, and the imperial boat was about to set off, so Lin Ruhai had no choice but to disembark.

Daiyu stood on the deck and watched her father until the boat set sail, and the lonely figure of her father on the pier became smaller and smaller, and finally disappeared. Daiyu finally shed tears.

She remembered the situation when she sent Yin Zuo away. She could no longer remember many details, but the sadness in her heart was still fresh in her memory.

Is her father in the same mood as she was back then?

No, it's different!At the beginning, she sent Yinzuo away, but she still had her father, and when her father sent her away, she had no relatives around her.

Thinking of this, Daiyu couldn't stop crying, Zhu Ying and Xueyan's persuasion was useless, and they couldn't help feeling anxious.The last time Daiyu cried so badly, she fell ill afterwards, but now she is on the boat, being ill is not easy!

When the two were at a loss, Nurse Ning came in with a smile: "Someone sent something over there!"

She pointed in the direction of Yu Zhou, Zhu Ying and Xue Yan immediately understood, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.Sixth elder brother can always easily cheer up a girl, and I think it is the same this time.

This is really timely rain!

Zhu Ying said with a smile: "It's hard to say how the sixth elder brother can do it. There are so many people in this place, it's not easy not to be eye-catching!"

Xueyan quickly asked: "What did you send?"

Daiyu also looked at Nanny Ning curiously.

Nanny Ning smiled and said, "I have a basket of strawberries, my servant has already been washed. There is another letter."

Xueyan took the plate held by the little maid and said with a smile: "This is a rare thing, please taste it quickly, miss."

Daiyu picked one up and ate it slowly, and said with a smile, "It tastes good, very sweet, you all have a taste too."

Then he accepted the letter from Nanny Ning.The letter was very thin, and when Daiyu opened it, there were only two lines of large characters on it.

The first line is: Do you see that guard standing behind me?Guess who he is (the answer is on the back).

Daiyu snorted softly, thinking that there was something to guess, and she didn't know how many guards, he was so solemn, it must be Nalan's guards.

Turning to the back, it turned out to be Nalan Xingde, and Yinzuo asked, "Is it good-looking and temperamental, as bright as the sun and the moon in the bosom, as solemn as the wind under the pine, tall and gentle."

Daiyu has been used to Yinzuo's strange words and tones and random splicing of poems, so she doesn't comment on it, but Nalan Xingde... Daiyu thought about it, but she didn't remember the other person's appearance. At that time, she was only thinking about Yinzuo. On Zuo, he didn't pay attention to other people at all.

Thinking about it, it's not very good, at least not better than senior brother.

Daiyu smiled and continued to read the letter. The second line of Yinzuo wrote: It's good that you come, can you draw a picture of the scenery along the road for me to see?I was so miserable, I didn't see TT twice when I came out.

Daiyu couldn't help laughing, but she knew the story inside.Senior brother was ill all the way on his first southern tour, so he didn't have much intention to enjoy it, but this time he somehow provoked the elder brother, and he was detained to practice martial arts every day, so he missed many scenery along the way.

Thinking about it, it was indeed a bit miserable, so Daiyu cheered up and asked people to prepare paper and pens.

Zhu Ying and Xueyan looked at each other, and couldn't help but bend their eyes, happily preparing things.

Sitting in front of the desk, Daiyu thought for a while before writing. With the sound of brushing and brushing, a draft drawing was ready soon. Although it was only a simple outline, the grand scene of the Royal Boat docked at the Yangzhou Wharf was vivid on the paper.

It's not the first time Ning Momo has seen this kind of painting called "sketch", and she can't help but marvel at this moment: "I don't know how beautiful it will be when the girl draws it carefully!"

She was looking forward to this, but Daiyu didn't plan to continue.

She is not stupid, so she naturally understands that the brother wants her to paint because he is afraid that she will be indulging in sadness.The shaking on the boat is not suitable for painting for a long time. If you are injured or sick, you will live up to the painstaking efforts of your senior brother.Furthermore, if the senior brother wants to see the scenery along the road, he can't just sit in his room and paint, he also needs to go outside to see more.

For the rest of the time, Daiyu spends most of the day painting and observing on the deck. When she encounters new and interesting things, whether it’s a lush mountain, a small village with smoke from the kitchen, or just a strange bird, she always draws on the paper. Make a draft and plan to draw in detail after arriving in Beijing.

Because the painting is not detailed, Daiyu didn't expend much energy, and because she was busy with other things, she was no longer sad about parting with her relatives, and she didn't care about the fear of going to Beijing, so her spirit was better.

Seeing this, Ning Momo and Zhu Ying were relieved and admired Yinzuo from the bottom of their hearts.

When the Yuzhou landed again, Yinzuo asked someone to bring Daiyu a basket of food. Daiyu and other servant girls had never seen this thing before, so they gathered around to look at it.

"What is this? It's somewhat similar to a squatting owl."

The squatting owl is taro, and most people here have only eaten taro cake with red dates, but they have never seen what a whole taro looks like, so they can't help being a little surprised.

"It's not a squatting owl. I've seen a squatting owl. The skin of a squatting owl is brown and the flesh is white. This one has red flesh and yellow flesh. I don't know what it is."

"I think it's because we have limited knowledge, why don't we ask the cook?"

Daiyu looked at Nanny Ning curiously, and Nanny Ning smiled and said, "It's not that you don't know much about it, it's probably useless to cook it, it's a rare thing, most people don't know about it."

She said: "This is called golden potato, also called sweet potato and sweet potato. It is a specialty of Zhejiang. People in Zhejiang offer it to the emperor, but the emperor doesn't take it. Sixth elder brother likes it, so he insisted on buying a lot for silver."

Daiyu wondered: "Senior brother has always been able to avoid things when he encounters them. Why did he suddenly become greedy? This is not his style. Could it be that there is something special about this golden potato?"

"Exactly! This golden potato is rare, but the taste is not that bad, but it has a great advantage, that is, the yield is high! I heard that one mu can produce nearly a thousand catties!"

Everyone was in an uproar, even if they were ignorant of common affairs, they knew that the rice yield per mu is only two to three hundred catties, so how can this golden potato produce so much?

"I don't know whether it's true or not, I just heard that the people in Zhejiang said so, and said that they survived disasters in the past because of this." Sister Ning said with a smile, "But what Brother Six means is that it's not worth anything anyway. Silver, buy it back and try it out, if it doesn’t work, there is no loss, if it works, it will be the welfare of the people!”

"Amitabha, it's a shame that such a noble person as the sixth elder brother still thinks about us ordinary people." Zhu Ying recited a sentence of Buddha, and said softly, "I hope it can be done. I used to have a playmate who was banned because of insufficient food at home." It was sold, and then it was reduced to that dirty place, and it was ruined for the rest of its life. Fortunately, the servants are lucky."

Zhu Ying was not born in the family, everyone knew that she was also sold by her parents, presumably it was because the family couldn't afford food, seeing her mentioning this suddenly, they looked at each other in blank dismay.

There are few people here, Daiyu needless to say, Xueyan is a child of the family, and she has no worries about food and clothing since she was a child, Nanny Ning is also born in Baoyi, and she has no experience like Zhu Ying, so she doesn't know how to comfort her for a while.

Xueyan said dryly: "Was there a disaster at that time?"

Otherwise, why can't the whole family have enough to eat?

"It's not that there was a disaster, it's just that the harvest in the field is small, and there are many children in the family. What should we do if we don't sell our sons and daughters?" Zhu Ying said with a smile, "I don't have anything to complain about. It's better to sell a slave than a whole family. It’s better to starve to death, besides, the parents of the servants are still good, they didn’t sell the servants to that dirty place for a few taels of silver, but let the servants come to our house, and now they can enjoy a happy life.”

Seeing that she was really not sad, everyone laughed for a moment.

Zhu Ying sighed: "However, not everyone is as lucky as a servant. The servant hopes that this golden potato is really as good as it says, and we ordinary people can also count on it."

Everyone in the room couldn't help being silent, Daiyu said thoughtfully: "In this case, let's also leave some as seeds, and then we will set up a place in our mansion to plant them."

Zhu Ying smiled: "Yes, thank you, miss."

"Thank you, I'm not doing it for you. I planted it just because I wanted to. I want you to empathize with me. Don't allow me to be merciful." Daiyu teased Zhu Ying, and seeing her blushing, she let it go and said with a smile , "Remind me tomorrow, I have to ask my brother how to plant."

Zhu Ying blessed her: "Yes, this servant remembers."

That day, everyone around Daiyu tasted the golden potatoes sent by the sixth elder brother. Daiyu was extremely restrained in her diet, she only ate a small one before stopping her chopsticks, and said with a smile: "It tastes good."

Xueyan said loudly: "The servants also think it is delicious. If there is such a high yield, it would be good for the common people to eat this every day. Why does the sixth elder brother still say that the taste is mediocre?"

As she spoke, she showed a longing look.

Yin Zuo, who once suffered from heartburn from eating too many sweet potatoes: ... Hehe, you must be naive.

Eating too much of anything tastes bad, especially sweet potatoes. Yinzuo has an elder who was demoted and reformed during the activities of the last century. It's so uncomfortable, it is said that it hurts from eating too much.

Of course, these things don’t matter when you can’t survive. Sweet potatoes have indeed saved many people, such as the elder, who survived by relying on sweet potatoes.

Don't say far, just say near.In a few decades, Emperor Qianlong would promote sweet potatoes, and the Qing Dynasty ushered in a population explosion thereafter.Little sweet potatoes, the effect is really limitless.

It was precisely because he knew its weight that Yinzuo bought it at the risk of being the first bird.Who made this thing too neglected nowadays.Although Yin Zuo advocates being wise and protecting his life, he will not do nothing because of this. That is not his character.

He was thinking about how to handle this matter without making himself too conspicuous, more than ten days passed quickly, and Yu Zhou was about to arrive in the capital.

Yinzuo handed a letter to Deqing: "Don't go back when you arrive in Tongzhou, help me take care of Miss Gu Lin, and return to the palace when she arrives at Jia's house."

Deqing should be.

Yinzuo asked again: "Can the Jia family get through?"

Deqing: "Yes, the servants in the outer courtyard of the Jia family are very talkative. The servants spent some money and it was settled. The inner house is more troublesome. It was Xia Shouzhong who led the way."

"Xia Shouzhong?" Yinzuo thought for a while, "Did you ask me to see a doctor?"

"Yes, he is grateful for your kindness. When the servant asked him for help, he agreed without asking, and he was very happy. He often goes out of the palace, and occasionally sends some news to Jia Yuanchun, so he is familiar with the Jia family. "

Yin Zuo nodded: "Forget it, just think of a way to thank him later. You don't have to watch too closely at the Jia family, just tell me if Miss Lin has been wronged, or if there is anything that is not good for Miss Lin. "

Deqing should be.

Only then did Yinzuo feel relieved, and he felt reluctance again.

Now there is still half a day's journey away from the capital, and after a while, all the civilian ships will slow down, and after Yujia leaves the pier, he will be parted from Daiyu soon.

Across the vast water, he looked at the ship that fell far behind. Because the distance was not close, he couldn't see people clearly at all, but he knew that Daiyu was on that ship, and she might be painting or reading a book, or she might be in the Tasting the fruit snacks he sent, maybe writing to him or reading his letters, and occasionally even vaguely seeing her leaning against the window, this makes Yinzuo feel satisfied, and now we are going to separate, Yinzuo just felt disappointed.

After this farewell, I don't know if there will be a chance to meet each other for the rest of my life.

No matter how reluctant they were, they still had to separate. After half an hour, Daiyu's boat began to slow down, and soon she was nowhere to be seen.Two hours later, the imperial boat docked, and Yinzuo, along with Kangxi and others, changed to a carriage and headed for the Forbidden City.

When the mighty carriages and horses disappeared without a trace, the quiet pier became noisy again, and the bustle was even more lively than before. Everyone blushed excitedly and talked about their feelings when the royal driver passed by just now.

With this scene, most people here are enough to brag for a lifetime!

A few maidservants in red and green couldn't help but patted their chests and said, "It's such a big scene, I'm so scared that I don't even dare to breathe."

Another person said: "Can you not be too big, don't look at who they are, Amitabha, we are lucky today."

"It's the guards who are scary. They all look very energetic. How fierce! I just saw a handsome young man and wanted to take a closer look. The eyes of the good guy scared me to death."

"Forget it, you old bastard's neck is almost two meters away. I know that you like good colors, but those who don't know think you are that old bustard."

"It's the first time I've seen a young man who is more handsome than our second master, isn't it surprising?"

"What's the matter with the younger generation? That's the prince elder brother! You don't want your head anymore?"

These people were silent for a moment and changed the subject one after another.

"Miss Lin will be here today too. I don't know if you saw Yu Zhou on the river."

"No way, Yu Zhou is so easy to see? No luck."

Naturally, Lin Ruhai would not tell the Jia family that Daiyu returned to Beijing with Yu Zhou, but only said that she was a relative, and these servants didn't dare to think about it at all.

After half a day, Daiyu's boat arrived.The mother-in-law waiting in Jia's mansion immediately stepped forward and asked, "But Miss Lin from Yangzhou?"

"Yes", a woman replied with a smile, "The girl hasn't tidied up yet, it's very windy here, follow me to the boat to meet you!"

As he said that, he took people on board, and went to the door to ask the little maid to pass the news. After a while, the snow geese greeted them in person: "It turns out that the sisters-in-law are here. Please come in and have a cup of hot tea." !"

The servants didn't even dare to say anything, they followed the snow geese in.

As soon as you enter the door, the heat blows in your face. It’s late March, and the stove is still on. What’s even more rare is that the room is so warm, but there is no smoke at all; looking at the furnishings, it’s just as clean as water. The red sandalwood is extremely exquisite; Daiyu has an enamel teacup in her hand, and she is wearing a white fox fur cloak. The book in her hand must be an antique, the pages are slightly yellowed, and the paintings just rolled up by the maid are extremely rare. The word, I only understand what it means today, and they have never seen that pen before.

The servants looked at each other, their hearts pounding.Didn't it mean that Mrs. Lin's family has no money left, so he came to fight the autumn wind and settle down?

It doesn't look like it.
