Daughter of General

Chapter 12 Going Out

Chapter 12 Going Out
This day coincided with the May [-]th anniversary of Wu's death.Shen Yulan begged Shen Junzhi to go to the temple where Wu's coffin was parked to fast for three days.

Jin He naturally wanted to go with him.

In front of Shen Junzhi, Shen Yulan discussed with Jin He which girl to take.There are only four girls in the room, so they must not be taken away.But you can't just bring two or three, that would be too shabby.Therefore, Shen Yulan was very embarrassed about this matter.

After being reminded like this, Shen Junzhi finally came to his senses: "When you come back from the temple, hurry up and buy girls. These girls must always be matched."

Shen Yulan and Jin He looked at each other, then secretly smiled.

Naturally, Shen Yulan wanted to report back to Mrs. Guo about going to the temple.Naturally, Mrs. Guo would not stop her.But he said with regret: "I wanted to take you and Yushan out as guests, but since you have such an important matter, I will take you next time."

Shen Yulan responded in a low voice, and said again: "According to the rules, one should observe filial piety for one year. I'm afraid I won't be able to go out with my wife this year. Please forgive me."

Guo Shi suddenly laughed: "Look at me, I actually forgot about this."

So justifiably, Shen Yulan was hidden by the snow like this - even many people who were close to the Shen family didn't know the existence of Shen Yulan.

However, Shen Yulan didn't intend to show off, or participate in more entertainment to increase her popularity.So I don't care at all...

And the Guo family is even more happy to see it succeed.

However, because of keeping filial piety, Shen Yulan couldn't go to school immediately.This is the most regrettable.

It's just that such a thing can't be avoided.After all, everything has to follow the rules, right?
Xu Shi was a little worried by what happened last time. Although the temple was located within an hour's distance from the city, Shen Junzhi still sent people to follow him.And what Shen Yulan didn't expect was an old acquaintance——Wang Li.

Wang Li still looked the same, but looked a little thinner, and the way he walked was also a little stiff.

Shen Yulan raised her eyebrows, then asked in a low voice: "Did my father punish you?"

"It doesn't matter, it's just twenty army sticks, it's almost better." Wang Li didn't feel embarrassed, and replied in a low voice and respect.

"Hehe." Shen Yulan sneered inexplicably: "If you don't look for the real culprit, you are punishing your own people. Even if you failed to protect the master and neglected your duty, didn't you bring me back safely? The public has arrived."

Wang Li didn't say anything, but it seemed that he didn't take Shen Yulan's words to heart.

Shen Yulan didn't say much, and put down the curtain resentfully, and retreated into the carriage.

Jin He looked a little cautious.Sitting upright, he didn't even dare to move his eyeballs.

Shen Yulan looked funny: "What's the matter? You are like this in the mansion, so you can't wait to come out and relax for a day. If you still like this, aren't you tired?"

Jin He shook his head and lowered his voice: "I heard that the people in the capital are different from our country people. Tell me, will they laugh at us?"

Shen Yulan was surprised and laughed: "How can the people in the capital be different from us? Isn't it two eyes and one nose? Besides, who has nothing to do with us. And, don't forget, you are also in the capital now." People, what are you afraid of? Anyway, we are also serious ladies in the general's mansion. Not to mention those with high status, we can always compare with ordinary people."

Only then did Jin He feel better.He dared to raise the curtain and look out.

While Wang Li listened to the conversation between Shen Yulan and Jin He in the carriage, he couldn't help shaking his head with a smile—it was still a girl's heart after all.

However, Wang Li felt that although Jin He was bigger, his temperament was not as good as Shen Yulan's.In terms of speech and manners, Shen Yulan is obviously more generous than Jin He.Even better than Shen Yushan.It can be seen that although she is a country woman, the Wu family taught Shen Yulan very well.

Thinking of the Wu family, Wang Li sighed—and couldn't help but think of what Shen Yulan said just now.After thinking about it carefully, his brows twitched suddenly - why did he feel that Shen Yulan's words meant something else?

In order to take care of Shen Yulan and the others, Wang Li specially drove the carriage extremely slowly.Fortunately, otherwise Wang Li would be absent-minded at the moment, but he would be really afraid of bumping into someone.

Shen Yulan, the chief culprit who made Wang Li so distracted, was ignorant at this moment, and together with Jin He, he carefully looked at the capital from the gap raised by the car curtain.

It has to be said that the capital city is indeed very prosperous.However, there is no chaos, but orderly - the shops on both sides of the road, and the small vendors on the roadside are all well-ordered, and they look very comfortable.

Probably for the sake of maintaining law and order, there are official messengers patrolling in teams almost everywhere.

Shen Yulan vaguely remembered it.It seems that Shen Junzhi is now also responsible for the public security and security duties of the capital?Although the official position is not high, it is also a real position.From the looks of it, Shen Junzhi is highly valued by his boss.

Looking at it all the way, Shen Yulan felt a little preoccupied - if she wanted to do some small business, the capital city was a good place.Such a prosperous place, as long as it is managed carefully, it will definitely not lose money.

However, as far as the little money left by Mrs. Wu is concerned, I don't know if it is enough.I'm afraid it's not enough.Shen Yulan sighed—it's not that she loves money.But these days, she really saw a fact.No matter where you are, you can't do without money.

Even in the Shen residence, it still costs money.The monthly money of two taels of silver, according to Jin He, is quite a lot, enough for an ordinary family of three to eat and drink for a month.But in Shen's house, it's not enough to reward girls and women.

It's not that you have to give a reward, but if you don't give a reward, then if you want to accomplish something, it will take countless efforts.It means that no one will run errands for you, no one will bring you food, just have a meal - if there is no egg in today's regular dish, but you want to eat it, if you don't have money, you don't even want to think about it.

This world is so realistic.Especially in the situation of her and Jin He - it is impossible to live without money.

Shen Yulan didn't want to grow the appetite of those servants and spend money everywhere in the future, so during this time she and Jin He were pretending to be stupid and not giving rewards.So, she and Jin He were almost despised by those servants.As for the private discussion - she had heard it "inadvertently" three or four times, and it was conceivable that people would talk about her stinginess every day behind the scenes.

Shen Yulan thinks this is a matter of ethos—in fact, think about it, why do you do things with rewards?Didn't you give me monthly money?Besides, doing small things is not worth rewarding, is it?
Shen Yulan didn't know what was going on at Guo's, but she knew that money could turn ghosts around anyway.In any case, she must have money.

But Shen Yulan also knew that right now, she might not be able to make money.First, she can't leave the house, and second, she doesn't have that ability.Thirdly, she doesn't know the capital well enough.

But she has a lot of ideas for making money.

All the way to the temple, Wang Li stopped the carriage, and waited for the carriage of the girl and mother-in-law to catch up, then jumped off the carriage and let the girl and mother-in-law wait for Shen Yulan and Jin He to get off the carriage.

Yunyin Temple is the most prestigious temple in the capital. It is said that the eminent monks of Yunyin Temple once told the fortune-telling of the founding emperor, so they were enshrined by the royal family.

Although I don't know if this matter is true, but the incense in Yunyin Temple is extremely strong due to this influence.There are many princes and nobles among the believers.

Just in the shed at the foot of the mountain specially built to park the carriages, Shen Yulan saw several luxurious carriages.You know, today is neither the first day nor the fifteenth day of the lunar new year, there are so many people, if it happens to be some kind of Buddha's birthday or the first and fifteenth day of the new year, one can imagine what it will be like.

Yunyin Temple does not allow horse-drawn carriages to go up the mountain directly, you have to walk or take a sedan chair.Most people choose to walk, firstly because they are sincere, and secondly because it is not far away.Standing at the foot of the mountain, you can see the magnificent temples halfway up the mountain.

Shen Yulan also chose to go up - although there are bearers at the foot of the mountain who specialize in touring customers.

Jin He naturally had no objection.But the two girls and the woman who followed were a little unhappy.

Shen Yulan just pretended not to see it - anyway, she would never pay the two girls and the woman to sit in the sedan chair.

Seeing that Shen Yulan didn't pay attention to her at all, the old woman dared to speak up: "Miss, let's sit in a sedan chair. Only those who have no money and status walk."

The mother-in-law's tone seemed a bit harsh, and her voice was not low, which immediately attracted several dissatisfied eyes.
