Farmhouse Golden Phoenix

Chapter 104

Taiyuan County is already prosperous enough, but the capital is more prosperous than Taiyuan County.All the main roads are paved with bluestone slabs.Every road looks very smooth and clean.Just this point makes Su Qinghe feel that she really wants to live in the capital.

At least, when it rains, you don't have to step on the mud when you go out.

It's a pity that this kind of thought only appeared for a while.Although the distance between Beijing and Taiyuan County is not very far, their accents are slightly different. Standing on the streets of the capital, she doesn't need to feel much to know that she is a foreigner.

Since ancient times, local people looked down on foreigners, but she still didn't ask for grievances.Besides, no one knows if Su Zhiping and Su Zhian will be released after they are admitted to Juren in the future. At that time, she and her parents will either stay in Taiyuan County, or follow her two elder brothers to take up the post. Most likely to come to the capital.

Moreover, the old emperor is not young. Although she has not seen what the old emperor looks like from the beginning to the end today, she can tell from the voice that the old emperor is probably not in good health.

Then it is very likely that the prince will succeed to the throne in the next two years, and her family has not yet determined whether it will be safe or not.If it is safe, and if the crown prince succeeds to the throne, it is natural that the farther away from the capital the better.

Anyway, we just have to wait for the situation in the capital to become clearer.

"The capital city is shaped like a Chinese character back, divided into the inner city and the outer city. In the middle is the imperial palace. Outside the imperial palace is the inner city. The inner city is populated by dignitaries. Further outside is the outer city, where ordinary people live. "The fourth prince didn't know what Su Qinghe was thinking, so he just smiled and explained to Su Zhiping and Su Zhian.

"The Gongyuan is in the inner city. Your exam next year will be held in the Gongyuan. Then, you can rent a courtyard in the outer city." The fourth prince knew that Su Zhiping and Su Zhian would definitely not live in his residence, so Didn't mention it at first, just gave them an idea.

"The east of the city mostly sells literature, ink and antiques, the west of the city mostly sells vegetables and various foods, the south of the city mostly sells makeup, silk, satin and clothes, and the north of the city sells gold." The fourth prince continued, while Su Qinghe pretended to be confused: "Gold selling cave? What is that for? Is it a goldsmith?"

The corners of the fourth prince's mouth twitched, and his smile was false: "That's not a place where children can go, they are all gambling houses or something, children will be sold if they go, so you can't go to the north of the city casually in the future, Otherwise, you will be kidnapped by a kidnapper."

Su Qinghe made a frightened look, which made the fourth prince laugh out loud.Then he stretched out his hand and pointed to the other side: "There is a teahouse over there, and there is a storyteller in it. The story is pretty good. Let's take a rest and listen to what's going on in the capital recently."

Everyone had no objection and just followed the fourth prince.After entering the teahouse, the fourth prince was about to ask Xiaoer to take them up to the second floor, when he saw a young man in his twenties coming down from the second floor, and he was quite handsome.

Seeing the Fourth Prince and his party, the man was stunned for a moment, then carefully sized up Su Zhiping and Su Zhian, and after a long while he hesitated and called out: "Zhiping, Zhian?"

"You are..." Su Zhiping was also a little surprised, looked at that person seriously, and then suddenly realized: "Yang Zi?"

"Ah, it's me. Why are you here? Uncle Su, Aunt Su, is this Xiaohe? She has grown so big in a blink of an eye." Yang Zi looked around with a smile on his face, and reached out to pat Su Zhiping and Su Zhian's shoulders: "Not enough brothers, you guys, don't tell me when you come to the capital!"

"You are not brother enough. Back then you moved when you said you would move, and you didn't leave us an address. We haven't been in touch all these years. If it wasn't for a coincidence, you probably wouldn't have thought of contacting us, right?" Su Zhian was quick-spoken, Immediately rolled his eyes and said.

Yang Zi smiled wryly: "Hey, I can't help it either."

Said, glanced at the fourth prince.Su Zhiping hurriedly said: "This is..." He looked at the fourth prince as he spoke, and he didn't know if the fourth prince would reveal his identity or know Yang Zi, so he spoke slowly and waited for the fourth prince I said it myself.

The fourth prince is a smart man, so he hurriedly said: "I am Shen Junxiu, the brother of Zhiping and Zhian. Since you are old friends and haven't seen each other for a long time, you must have a lot to say. I just happen to have some things to do , I won’t bother you.”

After finishing speaking, he turned around and left in a cool manner.Su Zhiping and Su Zhian didn't have time to say anything, they just watched the fourth prince walk out the door in two or three steps.

"Yang Zi, let's talk upstairs. By the way, don't you have anything to do?" Su Zhiping turned to look at Yang Zi, Yang Zi shook his head: "No, even if there is, it can't prevent me from talking with you, let's go, I Please, let's go up and have a drink or two."

While talking, he turned his head and ordered: "Xiao Er, bring me a pot of silver needles and pekoe from your shop, and some snacks, whatever, bring me a portion."

As he said that, he dragged Su Zhiping to the door of a private room. Yang Zi was in this room about before, and there was still a pot of tea and a teacup on the table at the moment.Yang Zi signaled everyone to sit down, and then asked the previous question again: "Why did you come to the capital?"

After asking the question, he suddenly reacted, and patted himself on the head: "Look at me, I almost forgot, are Zhiping and Zhian here to prepare for the exam next year? Have you found a place to live?"

"It's not because of the test." Su Zhiping was a little hesitant, but after thinking about it, he still didn't hide it. Anyway, this matter is not something to be ashamed of, and it will still be exposed in the future. Why not talk about it now? .

So, I talked about the farming before, and said that the emperor wanted to see them, and talked for a long time.Yang Zi looked surprised: "Really? You met the emperor today? What did the emperor say?"

"The emperor didn't say much, he just asked a few words about how to grow the sweet potatoes and potatoes, and then let us leave the palace. We are planning to go back in a few days. Yang Zi, you came here for the test ?" Su Zhiping was not very willing to talk about this, so he changed the topic, Yang Zi nodded: "I will try in March next year, and I plan to give it a try."

"Yang Zi, why didn't you tell us when you moved?" Su Zhian drank half a cup of tea and looked up at Yang Zi. After all, they grew up together. He and Yang Zi still played together when they were young. , he has the best relationship with Yang Zi.

Back then, Yang Zi left without saying goodbye, and then there was no news from him. He was actually quite annoyed in his heart, thinking that Yang Zi's family might be well-off, and that's why he didn't want to contact poor friends like himself.But looking at Yang Zi today, it doesn't seem that he dislikes himself.

"Hey, it's really hard to describe." Yang Zi sighed, paused, and then said: "Before moving, my parents said that the house was rented temporarily. After everything has been moved, I will take a look at the house slowly, and then go to the house again." Buy it. I just thought, when the house is bought, I will tell you again, and it will save trouble.”

"But who knows, after buying the house, my elder brother is going to get married. I am busy with things, and I don't have time to go out. I have been waiting for my elder brother to get married. I plan to find you again." Speaking of this, Yang Zi showed a wry smile.

"Although my mother was a little displeased with me looking for you, she didn't stop me and asked me to bring gifts to my neighbors. However, my sister-in-law didn't want me to go back. You have to concentrate on your studies and not go out at will.”

"Before I went out, she asked my parents to send me to the county school in Datong County. She said that the gentlemen there were very good. There have been several scholars in the county school, and I didn't have time to tell you. , was sent away directly, and from there, I can only go home once a month, I want to find you every time, but I don’t have time every time, my mother and my sister-in-law wish I could grow up in the study.”

In fact, he is not afraid of his sister-in-law, but the elder brother and sister-in-law are on one side.Moreover, the money for his study was all given by his elder brother and sister-in-law, and his parents also agreed.He alone had no way to object to the words of the whole family.

Moreover, living in the county school, I also have new friends. Although I can't find my childhood playmates anymore, it's not that sad after all.

"I originally thought that when I was admitted as a scholar, they wouldn't care so much. As a result, after I was admitted as a scholar, they became even more serious..." Yang Zi sighed, and did not continue. Both Su Zhiping and Su Zhian Some were dumbfounded.

Although they all knew that Yang Ziniang had high hopes for her son to become a dragon, they didn't expect that it would come to this point that they even had to control Yang Zi's going out.

"Then you came to the capital alone now?" Su Zhian asked suspiciously, Yang Zi nodded: "Well, I said that I have to be taken care of by my classmates for the imperial examination, so they let me out."

Su Qinghe sympathizes with Yang Zi quite a bit, but at the same time, it's a little funny, Yang Zi is considered stupid and filial, right?Everything does not violate the will of my mother, I am afraid that his mother will have the final say on getting married in the future, right?In case of marrying a woman, it will be non-stop, then there will be a good show between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

Su Zhiping and Su Zhian haven't seen Yang Zi for a long time. Now that they know that Yang Zi has difficulties, they immediately felt all kinds of sympathy for Yang Zi. The two brothers began to tell Yang Zi all kinds of interesting things, and even With the development of their family over the years.

Yang Zi made a fuss when he heard it, and the three spoke happily.

Su Qinghe listened for a while, then leaned against the window to listen to the storytelling outside.Mrs. Su Zhang also came over with melon seeds: "Xiao He, this storyteller is very good, very funny."

"Mother, I heard that there is a kind of female gentleman who specializes in storytelling. If you like to listen to it, let's go back and find some female gentlemen and let them come to our house to talk. Besides, don't you like watching plays? Let's look back Let's go play and see the difference between the theater troupe in the capital and our county." Su Qinghe said with a smile.

Mrs. Su Zhang nodded: "That's right, I have to watch a big play, but I don't know what troupe there is in the capital." Mrs. Su Zhang muttered, and Su Jingsen said with a smile: "This is not easy? Let's go back and find out. , four...Young Master Shen grew up in the capital, so he must know this, let's ask later."
