The official road of the farmer

As the capital city of a state, Yongzhou is so prosperous that no other town can match it. Ye Junshu and his party stopped their carriage at the gate of the city.

The groom led the horse and entered the city slowly and orderly along the crowd.

Ye Junshu walked beside Uncle He, looking at the surrounding environment unobtrusively.

He thought Linfeng County was prosperous enough, but he didn't expect to see it today, and he knew that there was a sky beyond the sky, angry horses in fresh clothes, and young masters everywhere.And Shangjing, as the capital of one dynasty, should be so prosperous.

Ye Junshu couldn't imagine it.

Looking at this strange city, Ye Junshu was at a loss for a moment, not knowing where to go, the first thing is to find a place to stay.

But he is not familiar with the place, how can he find someone he can trust?

Seeing Ye Junshu's embarrassment, Uncle He said, "Ye Xiucai, if you trust me, I will take you to a temporary place to stay."

Hearing this, Ye Junshu laughed and said, "It's great that Uncle He can help! If you can't even trust me, then I don't know who else can."

Uncle He smiled, and led Ye Junshu and his party to the southwest direction of the street, saying, "When Mr. Qin's eldest son came to Yongzhou to study, he also lived there temporarily. The environment is quiet and quiet. It is also very safe, and many scholars will choose to live there, and they can live there temporarily until they find another better place to live.”

Not long after, Ye Junshu and the others came to the inn that Uncle He mentioned. Ye Junshu looked at it for a while, and it was really what Uncle He said. The first impression made him feel very good.

The inn looks very clean and elegant, and the waiter inside also gives people a very warm and friendly impression.

As soon as they reached the entrance of the inn, a young man with a white veil on his shoulders came to greet him courteously: "Guests, please, do you want to be top-notch? Or stay in a hotel? Our inn has everything you need!"

Ye Junshu looked at Uncle He, and Uncle He replied: "We plan to stay for a while, is there a small yard for rent?"

"Yes, the guest officer wants to rent an independent small courtyard or live together?"

It is far from the day of the scientific examination, and there are still many vacant rooms in the inn to choose from. Xiao Er looked at Ye Junshu, a young man dressed as a scholar.

Xiao Er sighed inwardly. He saw that most of the students who came and went for so many years were thin and somewhat weak. Like the tall and tall scholar in front of him with a very outstanding temperament, he was definitely sharp and sharp.

Uncle He looked at Ye Junshu, he didn't know which one he wanted to rent.

Ye Junshu said: "Let's rent an independent small courtyard. I hope that the space will be bigger and the privacy will be better. Please recommend it to my second brother."

"Guest officer, don't worry, all our inns can meet your requirements. Guest officer, please go in with me and see which one you are more satisfied with."

Xiaoer bent down and asked Ye Junshu to follow him in, and Ye Junshu asked Uncle He to help look after the child and luggage at the door, and followed Xiaoer in the shop.

After walking in, I found out that the backyard of this inn is very wide and the design is very ingenious. Xiao Er introduced it to Ye Junshu nonchalantly all the way. Focus on those individual yards.

There is also a difference between a single courtyard and a relatively bad one. Ye Junshu made a comprehensive comparison and finally chose a small courtyard with three bedrooms.

Although the room is a bit small, the sparrow is small and well-equipped, and there is even a study room. Outside the room is an open space of about [-] square meters. Although it is not big, the children have a place to play.

The only incomplete thing is that there is no small kitchen here, but you can go to the front yard to eat, or you can ask Xiaoer to deliver meals, which is quite convenient.

Such a small yard is a bit expensive, and you have to pay two taels of silver just for the deposit.

Ye Junshu wasn't sure how long it would take him to find a place to settle down officially. He paid the rent and food for three months first, and then he would renew the lease depending on the situation.

After such a pass, ten taels of silver were spent.

Ye Junshu secretly sighed, indeed, in big cities, money is the least expensive.

He will stay in Yongzhou for two years, so he definitely can't live in a hotel for a long time, and it is not conducive to the growth of the children, so renting a house is imperative, but he is new here and can only take it step by step.

After the house was rented, two carriages came in through the back door, and with Xiaoer's help, the luggage was moved in three or two trips.

With Ye Junshu's permission, the children also came out to play in the yard.

Ye Junshu gave the money to Uncle He and Uncle Huang to settle the settlement, and then heard Uncle He say that they would leave the city early tomorrow morning to go back. Ye Junshu was very surprised, and finally came to Zhoucheng, why don't you stay for a few more days?

Uncle He said: "I've been out for a long time, it's time to go back."

Ye Junshu didn't want to keep him any longer, he just asked Uncle He to help bring the letter back.

They have arrived in Yongzhou safely, and it is time to write a letter back to report their safety.

Jun Ye wrote a lot of letters, one for each of my husband and brother, Uncle Rong also wrote one, um, and Aunt Ming, I should also write a letter myself.

The time was a bit rushed, but Ye Junshu still asked Uncle He, who was familiar with Fucheng, to take him to the street to buy some special products, which was more or less a good idea.

Early the next morning, when the children were still asleep, Uncle He and Uncle Huang set off for home. After Ye Junshu sent them out, he looked at the small courtyard where they lived temporarily and breathed a sigh of relief.

A new life is about to begin.

These two days he was basically in the inn, looking at the children. They had been on the road for more than two months, and they were always mentally and physically tired.

Fortunately, the children were not acclimatized.

Ye Junshu changed into a formal Confucian uniform, picked up the official greeting card he wrote last night, and the letter given to him by his husband before he left, and was going to visit the gentleman who had written him a recommendation letter and asked him to study at Yongzhou College old friends.

Mr. said that his old friend, surnamed Zhu, was a Juren of the same class as him. Back then, he became a brother of his husband's family and stayed in Yongzhou. Now he is a squire in Yongzhou City. How many words.

Due to emotion and reason, Ye Junshu had to take this trip. This letter of recommendation gave him a lot of help, not to mention that he had to act as a messenger to convey the letter for Mr.

Ye Junshu found out about Master Zhu's mansion, so he specially dressed in formal clothes to visit.

After a while, Ye Junshu found the place, looked at the two big characters of Zhufu hanging high above the imposing gate, straightened his sleeves, and went to knock on the door.

After waiting for a while, the door opened a crack, and the gatekeeper looked at Ye Junshu, "Who are you looking for?"

Ye Junshu handed over the greeting card with both hands, cupped his hands and said, "Please tell me, my student, Ye Junshu, is from Fengcheng County. He was instructed by his master to come to visit Master Zhu."

The gatekeeper took the greeting card, "Wait a moment." Then he closed the door, and the sound of footsteps faded away.

Ye Junshu waited at the door.

Unexpectedly, after waiting for about half an hour, the gatekeeper came late.

Not to mention, the originally polite gatekeeper's attitude changed drastically at this time, his whole body was lazy, and his eyes looking at Ye Junshu became superior.

"It's inconvenient for my master to see guests today, this young master, please go back."

With that said, he was about to close the door.

One hand suddenly pressed against the gate, and the door panel that was about to close remained motionless. The gatekeeper's face changed, and he was about to curse angrily, when Ye Junshu showed an impeccable smile, and said slowly, "Since Master Zhu is inconvenient to see the students, then Can I ask my brother to help me with a message?"

Before the gatekeeper could respond, Ye Junshu continued: "The student thanked Mr. Zhu for his help, and the master also asked the student to bring a sentence, the little brother must remember to convey, the old favor will be written off, and there will be no debt to each other."

"Please, brother." Ye Junshu stuffed a purse into the doorman, then turned around and left without looking back.

The janitor squeezed the rather generous purse, rolled his eyes, stuffed it into his bosom, then closed the door, and hurriedly went to report.

On the first seat, the elegant Zhu Zhengyi was holding the coaster with one hand, slightly lifted the lid of the cup with the other hand, and sipped the tea while blowing hot air.

Seeing the gatekeeper running, he lifted his eyelids and said lightly, "Going away?"

The gatekeeper bowed his knees and said: "Go back to the master, the person has already left." For the sake of the other party's interest in giving him money, he then brought back what Ye Junshu said.

When Zhu Zhengyi heard this, he put the cup in his hand and made a slight clinking sound. He hummed softly, "Go down."

"Yes."

The janitor quickly retreated knowingly.

Zhu Zhengyi stood up and walked back and forth with his hands behind his back, seeming a little anxious.

At this time, a well-maintained middle-aged brother came out and said, "Since you are upset, why don't you let him come in and meet?"

Zhu Zhengyi's expression was slightly cold, "Although I owed him back then, I had already helped his students obtain the qualifications to enter school. Qin Kangtai actually opened his mouth like a lion and imagined that I would accept his students as disciples? He came out of a poor country How could it be any better for those muddy legs? It’s a hype, but the more you live, the more you go back!”

When Zhu Zhengyi thought of that letter, he was so angry that he couldn't get it out. He hadn't seen him for many years, and his skin was getting thicker and thicker!Wasn't it very clear back then that you couldn't get used to taking shortcuts?Still trying to threaten him with what happened back then to make him pave the way for that poor man?

How can there be such a good thing?It has been so long since what happened back then, Zhu Zhengyi has long been fearless. If he hadn't looked at his friendship back then, he wouldn't even have given him a letter of recommendation!

"That being the case, what are you worried about?"

"I'm annoyed that if Qin Kangtai, a student, entangles our Zhu family just like that, it would be too embarrassing."

The middle-aged brother frowned when he heard the words, it's really not a good thing to be entangled by a poor scholar.

However, he has dealt with many such things over the years, so he said: "Order the servants, if you see someone coming, just call them out."

Zhu Zhengyi nodded, that was the only way to do it.
