Notes of Lanxi Crossing

The small stove in the cubicle is always boiling water. You only need to choose the tea you want and put it in to make another pot. The two people sitting opposite each other in the main room have not spoken for a while, and the bubbling sound of the boiling water is clear and pleasant. smell.

After a while, Mo Yan came back with the freshly brewed Maojian, and bent down to pour tea, Liu Yunyao waved her hand to stop it.

"I'm here, I don't need you here, go and do your own work."

Mo Yan put down the teapot according to her words, bowed silently to the two of them, then stepped back, and closed the door behind her intimately.

According to Liu Yunyao's habit of drinking tea, a cup of tea had been washed by Mo Yan before it was served, Liu Yunyao reached out and poured out the tea directly, and gently pushed one of the cups towards Song Ying.

"Come on, try it, that girl Mo Yan's skill in making tea is pretty good."

The misty water vapor of the tea surrounded the table, and the elegant tea fragrance permeated the air, soothing Song Ying's anxiety and uneasiness one by one.

She picked up the small teacup with her fingers, and took a sip slightly, with a bit of sweetness in the bitterness, as if heralding the end of what she wanted—although there were many twists and turns in the process, the ending must be satisfactory.

Thinking of this, a smile involuntarily appeared on her lips.

"It's really good. Even someone like me, who doesn't know much about tea, wants to drink a few more cups after trying it."

"What's the matter, just drink it, my sister just treats this as her own home, don't be restrained."

"It's no wonder that everyone likes to drink tea when they have nothing to do. Usually, I just think it's boring. When I'm here with you, sister-in-law, I feel that this tea is really good. I can try more today, so as not to forget the taste when I go back." .”

Because there is still something to ask for later, Song Ying began to hold Liu Yunyao without looking for signs, the latter smiled slightly, and naturally followed the other party's words.

"If you think it's good, I'll order Mo Yan to bring you some back later, but the amount will not be too much.

Your eldest brother treasures it very much, and usually only he enjoys it alone. Today, I borrowed your light to taste it, so forgive him for not daring to stare at me for it. "

"I don't believe this anymore. The eldest brother saw it and was firmly held by the elder sister-in-law. If you want to use something, he can only send it to you happily. How dare you speak loudly to you.

Besides, it's just some tea. With the current status of the eldest brother, there is nothing good that can't be obtained. "Song Ying laughed along, teasing her and Song Qinnian.

"That's the kind of person he is, and he has a really good temper."

Although Liu Yunyao replied, she avoided talking about the second half of the content.

In fact, she can probably guess the purpose of the other party's trip. According to the decision discussed with her husband last night, she will not refuse Song Ying's request. However, before getting an accurate answer from Song Qinnian, she will not easily Promise something.

Liu Yunyao didn't answer, Song Ying had no choice but to take the initiative to tell her why she came.

"Sister-in-law, I came to see you today because I actually want to ask elder brother for help."

Hearing this, Liu Yunyao put down the teacup in her hand, feeling a little more at ease after the dust had settled.

"Ask him for help?"

Song Ying nodded, although they wanted to borrow Song Qinnian's strength, but she is not bad at this official matter as a woman.

Besides, although the eldest brother treats her as close as before, she has already married and started a business with a wife and children, and she is not sure whether he is willing to help her husband with advice or not.

It was precisely because of these many concerns that she planned to come to the sister-in-law first to find out.

"Sister-in-law, since we've already talked about this, I'll just say it straight, in fact, we don't plan to go back to Beijing this time.

But we have no foundation in this capital city, and we are not familiar with the place where we live. After thinking about it, only the eldest brother can rely on, so I thought about whether we can let the eldest brother help and find an official position for my husband. "

What Song Ying asked for did not exceed Liu Yunyao's expectations at all. She looked closely at the latter, for fear of missing any trace of expression on his face.

Liu Yunyao sighed in embarrassment, but the other party didn't finish speaking.

It would be much easier if he was just looking for an official position. With Song Qinnian's current power, such a trivial matter is not a problem at all.

But, is Jiang Chao really willing to accept to come here from his hometown where he is unrestrained and praised by others to be an unknown official?
"Sister, brother-in-law, if he just wants to stay in Beijing, it shouldn't be difficult, but I don't know what requirements he has for the matters under the jurisdiction of this official position?"

Song Ying didn't have a detailed understanding of these things before. In her opinion, if Song Qinnian wants to arrange a position for her brother-in-law in the court, it can't be too bad, otherwise it would be a loss of face to him. .

Liu Yunyao understood everything when she saw her speechless expression, and she didn't know what to say for a moment.

It's understandable to want someone to help, but it's a bit too casual to just bring the whole thing out and let them solve it without saying anything.

"Didn't my brother-in-law mention it to you?"

"This...it doesn't need to be said too much, big brother will never treat us badly." Song Ying said hesitantly.

Liu Yunyao simply explained the words a little more clearly: "Then does he want to be an official and have nothing to worry about, or does he not care about the official position and just want to do something?"

Of course, it is necessary for the government to be able to handle affairs again, Song Ying thought to herself, but it seems that some lions have opened their mouths, and it is not appropriate.

"...How about I go back and ask my husband?"

Liu Yunyao could only shake her head dumbfoundingly and said, "Then you should ask first, otherwise your elder brother will not be able to work for you when he is outside."

Song Ying had a bit of shame on her face, she was too worried about whether her elder brother would be willing to help, so she ignored these basic things.

Thinking of the way my sister-in-law was talking to her just now, she felt that she couldn't stay here any longer.
Seeing her embarrassment, Liu Yunyao didn't continue this topic, but shook her head even more in her heart.

"Sister-in-law, I was reckless today. I didn't agree with the matter now, but it disturbed you to check the accounts, so I won't stay. This matter...how about we talk about it another day?"

Song Ying has the intention to leave,

Song Ying and Jiang Chao are used to staying in the south of the Yangtze River, and they are protected by their elders and relatives, so their skins are very thin. Compared with them, those people in Beijing have thick skins as thick as a city wall.

If other noble ladies come to the door and really want to ask someone to do something, let alone being unable to answer the question, even if they are pointed at their noses and scolded, they will swallow their gnashed teeth, and they will still be affectionate Hot and good sisters with you.

Jiang Chao has a straightforward personality, and Song Ying may not be able to bring him much help in socializing in the backyard. If they are brothers and sisters-in-law, they will not take care of them more in the future, I am afraid that these two people will hardly be able to move a single step in Beijing.

Song Ying got up with a blushing face, and Liu Yunyao hurried to see her off.

"Wait for a while, and take some of the hair tips away with you."
