Chapter 294, the station shelters from the rain
There are four tables in the lobby, with well-dressed people eating and drinking tea, and the counter at the station.
Eight people dressed like Shui Sheng were talking to the postman.
"Brother of the postman, good luck. My wife is still in confinement. If she hadn't gone back to her parents' home to attend the funeral, she wouldn't have gone out on this day. The lady can't get wet. Please give me some convenience and let my wife come in to shelter the rain!"
The postman's eyebrows and eyes drooped, and reached out to block the other party's sleeves to cover the things he handed over, "Is your wife a family member?"
The hand under the straw raincoat grabbed the postman and forced the stuff to stuff it over. "My wife is the young lady of Meizhuang Tavern in Caoliang County. She doesn't need a house. She can just let her enter the hall or the horse circle to shelter from the rain."
The postman swept the tables at the hall and shook the man's hand away, "I really can't help if I'm not the family of officials."
"You okay, my wife is still having a fever..."
"This is the official post. The common people cannot come in at all. How could you be a lowly merchant slave who is treacherous and tricked? The postman talks to you well and still pesters you. Such a bad person can be beaten out!"
A girl with a head combed a snake bun, a ruby-inlaid gold hairpin, a style of a spirit bird earring, a purple silk brocade shirt, and beaded embroidered shoes, followed the steps of the wooden stairs on the second floor, raised her chin high, her eyes were delicate, and she pointed at Zeng Shuisheng and her group with a horse whip in her hand.
"If you are not officials and servants, you can quickly exit the post station, otherwise, I will ask the postman to throw you all out."
Who doesn’t know the rules of the official post?
However, if there are no noble people to check in at the official office, it is common to have a convenient way to get along with the post station.
At this moment, the lady made a fuss and the slave who knew that the master's family was not in sufficient status hurriedly withdrew from the inn.
As soon as I walked, I walked away most of it.
Shui Sheng hesitated for a while and did not leave.
He knew he was late and honestly stood behind the three men in the straw raincoat.
"My son is Guo Xiucai, who participated in the provincial examination in Suizhou. This is my son's scholar's document!"
A scholar is not an official, but it is feasible for a scholar to be an official in the county government office. Moreover, if the other party wants to take the imperial examination, he may be his immediate superior.
The postman was about to take the document to check it out, but the girl sneered, "But the scholar, the juren, didn't even pass the exam, and wanted to live in the official office. It's really a delusion."
The book boy holding the documentary was flushed, but the girl couldn't look at him, but just looked at a girl in pink clothes who was having a meal.
"The rituals and music in Lingnan have collapsed so far, and there are no rules. Sister Yazhu, no wonder your father, as the Minister of Rites, is to blame, and was demoted to Lingnan by the emperor."
The girl named frowned and finally said nothing. She swallowed her anger and picked up the chopsticks and picked up the vegetables and stuffed them into her mouth.
From her behavior, anyone with a brain in the hall could see that the elders in the speaking girl's family were at least higher than Yazhu's father now.
Yazhu's father was once the Minister of Rites, so the identity of the elder in the spoken girl's family should be the same as Yazhu's father, otherwise she would not be so familiar with her tone.
The young man eating at the next table looked up at the talking girl, "Write, say a few less words, come and have a meal."
Wonderful words walked downstairs, Yu Qingnian sat down on the left side of his deskmate, swept Shui Sheng and his group of people in a angrily manner, and said coquettishly, "Cousin, please let Your Majesty send you to protect you drive them out. What if there are assassins in this group?"
"You can't even get stuck in your mouth when you eat?"
Wow Yu sniffed his mouth, picked up the chopsticks in a daze, and was about to pick up the food, but stopped moving, twisted the teapot and rinsed the chopsticks sideways.
Just now, there was a lot of information in the girl's words.
For a moment, whether it was sitting at the table eating or standing, my heart was raised.
The Shutong dared not ask again, took back the young master's scholar's letter and bowed to leave.
Another man in the straw raincoat turned around and left, not knowing whether he was afraid of causing trouble for his master or was afraid that his master would be implicated by the people in the official post.
The third man in the straw raincoat lined up behind the two of them and handed the identity document to the postman. The postman glanced at it and said, "There is another second-class room in Dizifang."
The man in the straw raincoat still stopped talking and just nodded.
The postman took out the key and handed it to him, pointed to the corridor behind the stairs, "Go ahead in the direction I pointed, the third room on my left hand."
Wiaoyu frowned and was about to say something, her cousin scolded him sternly, "You can talk nonsense again, as soon as the rain stops, I will send you back to Beijing."
The witty remark was so aggrieved that it was about to come out, "Aren't I worried about my cousin's safety? Who knows what kind of messy mates are like..."
The man in the straw raincoat was walking towards the corridor turned his head and looked at the witty words.
The lowered hat made people unable to see his upper half of his face, and only saw a scar on his lips, which was very terrifying.
He was shockingly imposing. He was pulling his cousin as he acted coquettishly and suddenly became cold all over and turned his head to look.
The man in the straw raincoat had retracted his sight and walked straight towards the corridor.
Seeing the witty words that were scared into quails almost snuggled into the young man's arms, the people at Yazhu next door all lowered their heads, and they didn't dare to look at them.
Zeng Shuisheng could not understand the changes in the situation in the post station, but was only happy that it was finally his turn.
He knew that a few days ago, he had not resigned from his position as a yamen runner, and Chen Yuan also had the status of a coroner, so their group must be qualified to live in the official post house.
But now, Shui Sheng is not sure.
But, you have to ask questions before you know.
He took out the cowhide package and carefully handed the letter of recommendation and identity document written by County Magistrate Guan to the postman.
After seeing the postman, he felt a little embarrassed, "You three have all resigned, and Miss Chen has not yet taken office. She could have lived in a third-class room."
He secretly swept the people in the lobby at the end of his eyes and said kindly to Shui Sheng, "Today, the third-class room at the post station has lived in the servants of the masters. If you and your grandfather can ask for the consent of the third-class room at the third-class room, you can squeeze with them, but I can't speak for you and arrange it. But Miss Chen... There are few female servants, and those girls can have the same room as their own wives and ladies. If there is no room for her to squeeze, she will probably have to sit in the hall for a night."
"No problem, we originally thought we could come in to take shelter from the rain. Brother Postman, you are such a good person!"
Zeng Shuisheng was content and was happy, folded the identity documents of everyone and wrapped them in his arms again.
"Go and bring people in."
Shui Sheng nodded and ran into the rain.
Chen Yuan just saw the men in the straw raincoat retreating, and none of the exquisite or simple carriages drove into the station. He guessed that there were probably many big people living in the station tonight.
She no longer has hope for being able to go in to shelter from the rain tonight.
As a result, Shui Sheng ran over happily.
