Tianyuan Fenghuajing

Chapter 85
Mu Yun looked at Ji Ge who was busy in the store, and couldn't help laughing.

As long as he comes to the shop to help out whenever he is free, he can be regarded as half a clerk.From being in a hurry and always making mistakes at the beginning, to now it is very smooth, even smoother than his cursive handwriting.

She couldn't help laughing and said:

"Brother, why don't you resign from the champion and come to open a shop with me. You have spent more time in my shop than you have in the government office."

"Then how much do you want to pay my guy?" Ji Ge asked with a smile.

Mu Yun thought for a while and smiled:
"Food, housing, and daughter-in-law are all such good benefits. It's not worth it for me to give you a little more wages. Why don't I give you five taels of silver a month."

Mu Yun's proud look seemed as if Ji Ge had taken advantage of it.

Ji Ge couldn't help laughing, patted Mu Yun's shoulder and said:
"Your little money is not enough for my monthly expenses."

Mu Yun widened her eyes and said:
"You live alone in the government office. There is a special chef in the government office, and you don't need to wash your clothes. What else is there to consume? We, the Lin family of four, go to deliver some food to Lin Lang from time to time. It won't cost a tael of silver in a month."

Ji Ge shook his head and laughed:

"You are an ordinary family, and I have to take care of it up and down. The affairs of the officialdom are not as simple as you think."

Mu Yun frowned and asked him:

"Do you still need to bribe others?"

Ji Ge laughed, reached out and tapped Mu Yun on the head and said:

"This is not a bribe or anything. Since you are an official, your food and clothing should be much more refined. If people who are also in the officialdom see you are too simple, they will have a gap in their hearts."

"It's too troublesome for you to be so particular about officialdom." Mu Yun thought for a while, then asked, "But don't those upright officials dress plainly?"

"Have you ever seen those situations? What you have heard is either that they have made efforts on their own surface, or they have been exaggerated, saying that they are dressed like ordinary people. But ah, they are officials, why? Can it be compared with ordinary people?"

Mu Yun couldn't help frowning and said:

"It's no wonder that many honest officials' families can't afford to cook. It turns out that the money is spent on clothing."

Ji Ge smiled and didn't correct her.

There are many people in the officialdom, and there are all kinds of people. There are people who give money to others when they have money, and students like him because he is a leftist. He can't lose his aura just because he is not poor.

Mu Yun suddenly had a flash of inspiration and asked:

"This town is very small, not lively at all, and no one has a blacksmith's shop, study, or teahouse."

Before Mu Yun crossed over, the TV station was remaking the novels of Jin Yong and Gu Long every year. The ancient world she saw in those novels was wonderful and lively.

But now that she has traveled through time, she feels that it is not that exciting, and she can't help being a little disappointed.

Seeing her expression, Ji Ge smiled and said:
"These things are just ordinary in the capital. If you want to find interesting things, you should go to the painting boats, rare museums, and temple collections. These third-class places are very popular among ordinary scholars in Beijing."

"The Huafang is a more elegant flower house?" Mu Yun's eyes lit up, and she couldn't help teasing.

Ji Ge tapped her on the head and said:
"You little pervert. It is also necessary to divide people. If you order Qingguan, they will only comment on poems and appreciate landscape paintings with you when you are on the boat; if you want to have fun, there will naturally be someone to accompany you Let’s go to Wushan together for poetry.”

"Hey, it seems that you have a very rich life in Beijing." Mu Yun teased.

Ji Ge smiled lightly, and did not answer directly, but said:
"I don't usually go to these places, but I'm just invited by friends. I go there once or twice a month. More often, I go to the Curiosity Museum to see the exquisitely crafted objects; or go to temples to offer incense , take a look at the scriptures in their temple by the way, and cultivate your sentiment."

In Mu Yun's mind, only the Shaolin Temple in Jin Yong's novels appeared, and there were also figures like sweeping monks.

She couldn't help laughing:
"Aren't the monks in that monastery very powerful? If someone breaks into the monastery, will they be beaten all over the place?"

Ji Ge looked at Mu Yun in surprise and asked:

"Why do you have such an idea? How could thieves go to the temple to steal? The temple is a holy place. If the temple is frequented by the royal family, there will be royal guards on weekdays. No one in the temple can make a move."

Mu Yun couldn't help being disappointed.

Ji Ge looked at her expression, rubbed her head with a smile, and said:
"Why do you keep talking about weird things, and you don't know what's in your head?"

Then, he picked out some anecdotes and strange things in Beijing and told Mu Yun.

"Central Beijing is indeed much more lively than here. Central Beijing will hold events almost every half a month, whether it's viewing flowers and reciting poems, or all kinds of competitions. There are so many things that don't stop every month..."

Ji Ge picked up a few more lively festivals in central Beijing and told Mu Yun about them.

Mu Yun was amazed, thinking in her heart: When she first came to this world, she wanted to run away, but was finally moved by the Lin family and was willing to stay.After fighting for the Lin family for so long, daily food and clothing are no longer a problem, and she also has some ideas about the development of the store.But now it seems that she is still too short-sighted, confining her entire vision to the town.Why don't you go out for a walk and see the vast world outside, not only can you broaden your horizons, but it might also inspire her to have more strange ideas.

She suddenly realized that her previous idea of ​​running a store came from her experience before time travel.And different situations have different ways to deal with it. If she keeps using the previous experience, she will definitely be out of tune with this era.

It may not be obvious now, but if she doesn't improve, there will be big mistakes in the later stage.

Mu Yun had an idea to solve this problem, and Ji Ge happened to have an opportunity.

That's what bureaucracy is all about.Ji Ge obviously won the No. [-] prize in the fall of the previous year, but he had to wait a year to go to Beijing to report on his work.

His condition is considered good, and with the support of the left minister, he is relatively lucky to be able to go to Beijing to report on his work within a year.If there is no famous teacher behind him, it will definitely take longer.

Today, Ji Ge was thinking about what he discussed with Mu Yun a few days ago, so he went to the store to ask Mu Yun;

"I'm going to Beijing to report on my work in a few days. You want to travel with me. Although it may not be comfortable along the way, the customs and customs along the way are definitely different from those in the town. It can be regarded as letting you know more about the real city. Jianghu, not those nonsense stories in the scriptures."

Mu Yun ignored the last sentence and Ji Ge's ridicule.

Her eyes lit up and she asked:

"How long will it be on the road?"

"Beijing is not very far from here. If we travel by horse-drawn carriage, it will take about a month."

Before crossing, even from the most northwest to the southeast of the Great Heavenly Dynasty, it only took four or five days. Mu Yun has long been used to such fast transportation.And now it takes a month!It was only the distance from the town to Beijing, and she couldn't help but feel that the lazy flesh on her body had awakened, and she didn't want to go out.

The Invisible House·Mu Yun makes excuses for herself: Many things may happen in this month, and if there are any emergencies in the store alone, she can't reach out to solve them; Stay home alone.

After all, this is not the first time that the Huang family has been tricked around.

Ji Ge also understood Mu Yun's worry and said:
"This matter is of great benefit to you. Go back and discuss it with Lin Jinyan, and then talk to Mrs. Huang. I believe they will support you with all their strength when they find out. I won't leave town until a few days later. I will come to tell you before I leave, and then you can tell me if you want to go to Beijing."

Mu Yun thanked Ji Ge for his thoughtfulness, and quickly agreed.

In the afternoon, Lin Jinyan waited for Mu Yun to close the shop.

Mu Yun looked at Lin Jinyan's face, but didn't know how to speak.

That night, when they were talking about the past, she could hear that Lin Jinyan was still a little uneasy, worried that she would leave.

Will speaking at this time cause greater misunderstanding?
After thinking about it, Mu Yun didn't think of a good way to speak. Instead, she thought of a bunch of excuses to persuade Lin Jinyan.

And Lin Jinyan, who was driving the carriage, had already realized that Mu Yun was wrong, and she would usually stay by her side.Although usually both of them are Chen Mo, Mu Yun would tell him some jokes from time to time, but they have never been separated in two spaces so deliberately at this time.

home.

Lin Jinyan stopped Mu Yun and asked:

"You have something on your mind today, why don't you tell me about it."

Mu Yun knew that she couldn't hide her state from Lin Jinyan, but she didn't expect him to ask directly so soon.

Since the relationship between the two became closer, Lin Jinyan seemed to be more direct with her.She also knows that most of the problems between husband and wife are caused by insufficient communication and accumulation of misunderstandings.

So she looked straight at Lin Jinyan and said:
"Today, my younger brother told me that he was going to Beijing to report on his work, and asked me if I wanted to go with me. Although there was a one-month appointment on the journey, there must be various customs and customs for me to appreciate along the way. I have experienced it. But this journey is too far away, I am worried that there will be problems in the store, and because of Niangqin's soft temper, even if you stay, you will..."

Lin Jinyan shook his head to interrupt Mu Yun's worry, and said:

"When you told me about this, you first talked about the benefits of this trip, and then you talked about your concerns. Thinking about it this way, you must be more inclined to go. If you want to go, I will definitely to follow you."

Hearing what he said, Mu Yun immediately wanted to explain.

At this time, Huang's voice came in.

"This matter is a good thing. Mr. Ji is the number one scholar in the dynasty, and you will benefit greatly from getting along with him. And young people, you should go out more and see different things. Both of you are smart If I, an old man, are the ones who are confined to this small town, I am almost ashamed to death!"

She had already prepared the meal and was about to serve it out, but when she heard Lin Jinyan talking to Mu Yun, she looked a little excited, thinking they were arguing.She couldn't help but stepped forward to listen, and after knowing what Mu Yun was thinking, she wanted to encourage her.

But as she spoke, her eyes turned red.

Mu Yun hurried over, grabbed her shoulders, patted her on the back and said:
"Mother, don't say such things, we naturally put you first. We want to go out and see for the betterment of the Lin family. But if something happens to you after we go out, what we have done Isn't all your efforts in vain?"

Hearing what she said, Mrs. Huang saw that her eyes were sincere, without any intention of coaxing her, her eyes became redder, and tears rolled in her eyes.

she says:

"There is already a lot of money in the house. Don't worry about it. At worst, you can hire someone to watch me. If you are worried, you can hire a few more to fill the entire yard! Just don't let me be a hindrance to you." Obstacles to progress!"

As Huang said, tears flowed down his face.

Mu Yun stretched out her hand to wipe her tears, and said:
"Okay, mother, I know what you mean. You don't want to cry, it seems that we are very unfilial if you cry like this."

Lin Jinyan pulled the two of them to the table, sat down himself, picked up the chopsticks and said:

"Standing in the courtyard and talking so much, my stomach is almost starving. Eat first, and then talk after eating."

Mu Yun was grateful to Lin Jinyan for interrupting the two of them, and pulled Huang to sit at the table, and the three of them talked about today's interesting stories while eating.
