Yuan Suijun still didn't know what Su Yueling had in mind, so he took Geng Hai slowly to visit Lushan Village.
Although Lushan Village does not have any particularly beautiful scenery, it is better for its beautiful mountains and clear waters and fresh air.
Overall, the two days that Geng Hai and these guards spent here were quite enjoyable. In this warm and lively environment, they felt that a lot of fatigue had gone away from their bodies.
However, they had official duties after all, and staying for two days was already their limit. On May 27, they packed up their things and returned to the city.
Before leaving, Sister-in-law Yang got them some ready-made pork jerky, which could be stored for a few days, just so they could improve their food on the road.
The one who lived the most comfortable life among this group of people was Lianchun. He was praised by the villagers of Lushan Village every day, and his self-confidence was so high that he would have wanted to stay if he hadn't been reluctant to live in the prosperity of the capital.
After they were sent away, everyone in the Yuan family breathed a sigh of relief. Many of these guards were well-born. During the few days they stayed, the servants were really worried that they would not serve them well and bump into them. Fortunately, the nobles did not care about them.
.
Coincidentally, it happened to be the same day that Zhang Chengwang and his family moved. Their family even borrowed two oxcarts to move all their belongings to the county town. Because there were a lot of things, they moved back and forth several times.
Perhaps to show off, Zhang Xinghua even said loudly on purpose: "From now on, we will be city dwellers, different from you."
"If you come to the city, you can also come and sit at our house."
It's a pity that the villagers are not envious at all.
"So what if you have a house in the city? Mr. Renxiang has a house in the capital, and it is a three-entry house rewarded by the saint. By the way, how big is your house in the city? Does it have two entrances?"
Zhang Xinghua suddenly felt like a quail being strangled by the neck, unable to say a word. Her brother only had forty taels of silver in his hand, so how could he buy two taels into the house. In addition, they were in a hurry and could not wait for a better one. In the end, they had to
They were able to reluctantly choose a somewhat shabby house, which was not half as big as the yard they lived in now.
She gave the villagers who had just asked the question a hard look, then turned around and got on the bullock cart.
Yuan Suijun glanced at Zhang Chengwang, who had a sullen face. Their eyes met, and Zhang Chengwang was the first to look away.
Yuan Suijun passed by their family's oxcart, and the two sides were clearly separated. They had never been on the same road.
It would be better if the Zhang family moved away, lest there be a poisonous snake lurking around them, ready to bite at any time.
When Yuan Suijun arrived home, Song Xiaoqiao bowed to him and said, "Master, Madam has something to ask you for. She is in the study."
The study Su Yueling mentioned was the one in her own yard. Now they both have separate study rooms. Yuan Suijun's book mostly contains classics and history, while Su Yueling's book contains more story books and travel notes.
When he arrived, Su Yueling was feeding chopped courgettes to the little bastard she had raised on a whim some time ago.
Yuan Suijun asked: "Can it also eat courgettes?"
Su Yueling said: "It seems to be able to eat anything. It even ate honey two days ago."
She fed Xiao Ai two drops of spiritual spring liquid one after another, and then this tortoise seemed to have some intelligence, as if it could understand what people said, and could eat anything. Like black pearls, it likes to eat
Sweet.
Honey……
Yuan Suijun's eyelids twitched. He had never heard that bastards could eat honey. Aren't they usually meat eaters?
"You came to me all of a sudden, are you okay? If you want to write "The Legend of Su Yuan", Huang Liangke won't have time to write it in the near future."
Recently, he has focused more on reviewing the Four Books and Five Classics. Anyway, the manuscripts given to Qiu Yuxuan are enough for distribution until the end of the year. Speaking of which, the sales volume of "The Legend of Su Yuan" in the entire Great Xia last month exceeded the original
The record reached 60,000 copies. Qiu Yuxuan also took the opportunity to open new stores in several states.
This also means that Yuan Suijun's retouching fee has now changed from the original twelve taels per thousand words to fifty taels per thousand words. When he first cooperated with Qiu Yuxuan, even he did not expect it to be so much. In the future.
He could get 500 taels of silver for writing 10,000 words. The 60,000 words he gave to Qiu Yuxuan years ago, Qiu Yuxuan later gave him 1,800 taels. The 80,000 words he gave him this year were even more
He was given money directly in the amount of fifty taels per thousand words.
Yuan Suijun had five thousand taels of silver in his hands, so the pressure to support his family was no longer so great. At least it would not be a problem to hand over one hundred taels on a regular basis every month. He would habitually use the rest to purchase land.
He calmed down and looked at Su Yueling.
Speaking of which, Su Yueling seems to look different today than before. She still has the same picturesque features, but she is more charming than before.
Well, when he took a closer look, he realized that it was because of the makeup. There was a light, layered pink under her eyelids, and some gold foil on top, which added charm to her already beautiful appearance.
In particular, Su Yueling's eyelashes were extraordinarily long. When she blinked her innocent-looking almond eyes to look at people, those slender eyelashes as long as crow feathers seemed to be scratching and scratching in the palm of a person's hand, all the way to her heart.
Su Yueling's voice is very sweet, but when her voice sounds extra sweet than usual, it means that she is starting to think wrong again. The unlucky person is usually him or Sui Feng. Speaking of which, Su Yueling's temper is usually directed at him.
He Suifenglai (who took the most responsibility) took great care of Baoshu and rarely vented his anger on his servants.
"Suijun, have you praised me in front of Master Geng these days?"
Yuan Suijun's first reaction was, did Awu tell her?
No, under normal circumstances, Awu would not take the initiative to say this.
All kinds of thoughts were passing through his mind, but his face remained calm and calm, "No, where did you hear that?"
He only took Geng Hai to see the roads in the village and the school building that was being built. He did not praise Su Yueling in front of him. Even if he did, he would only talk about some objective facts.
Telling the truth is not a compliment. Not to mention that he didn't add any extravagance. As for Geng Hai becoming fond of Su Yueling because of this, it is because Su Yueling's actions are very popular.
Therefore, when Yuan Suijun said this, he felt very at ease.
Su Yueling stared at him closely, trying to find signs of lying on his face.
But it seems like he really wasn't lying?
Could it be that it wasn't Yuan Suijun who praised her in front of Geng Hai, but that Geng Hai took the initiative to realize her outstanding moral character and spontaneously developed a liking for her?
Su Yueling said unhappily: "You don't praise me."
"I've been doing so well recently, and you don't even have any encouragement!"
"No, you have to praise me."
She looked like a cat with fried hair, and three big words were written all over her face - Praise!
