In Rongqing Hall, Jia Mu's heart was filled with turmoil, but her face remained calm.
Regardless of whether her guess is true or false, there is no need to let others know.
However, Jia Mu, who was used to enjoying herself, now felt a bit of worry deep in her eyes that was difficult to resolve.
"Regardless of whether Brother Rong's guess is true or not, the house must be more cautious in its actions from now on!"
When he said this, he didn't pay attention to the weird looks of the people below.
It’s no wonder that the core members of the Rong Mansion are acting like this. In fact, it is the old lady herself who likes to have fun the most in the mansion, and the one who likes to do something grand.
Of course, I thought so in my heart, but I didn't say it out loud.
It was rare that Mr. Pardon didn't make any sarcasm this time. Instead, after leaving Rongqing Hall, he called Lian Er to remind him: "I'm afraid things are not that simple. You must be careful when you are on duty in the Yamen!"
Lian Er nodded in agreement. When he returned to his small courtyard, Wang Xifeng came back soon.
She told Lian Er a very unusual thing: "The old lady's mood seems to have been greatly affected!"
She was a little puzzled: "Isn't it just a censor? Why should we pay so much attention to someone who can solve it as soon as we find an opportunity?"
"What do you know?"
Lian Er leaned on the chair and said angrily: "What I'm afraid of is that someone is instigating me behind my back. How can I guard against thieves for a thousand days?"
"Besides, the Yushi Yanguan is not that easy to control. Unless we can get their handle, it will not be easy to get them down!"
"If there is any difficulty, with the strength of our four major families, even the bigger officials can handle it!"
Wang Xifeng was very disapproving and said: "I still say that the second master doesn't have the courage!"
"Second Master really doesn't have the courage!"
Lian Er said with a smile: "If we accidentally offend Yushitai, I'm afraid even if the four major families of Jinling unite, they won't be able to get away with it!"
"Those censors are like mad dogs. Once bitten, it will be difficult to escape!"
"Tsk, Second Master's metaphor is really damaging!"
…
It was a clear and sunny day, and Jia Fu, the steward of the Ning Mansion, had early assigned a few confidants to go out to greet the ethnic studies students who were about to return.
"Remember, don't show off. There are people in the clan school. If it gets to the ears of the uncle, you will probably have to go to the countryside to hide in the village!"
A combination of warnings and threats, and just looking at the faces of the assigned personnel, at least had some effect in a short period of time.
Jia Fu couldn't help it. When Uncle Zhen was in charge of the house, the atmosphere in the house was so bad that the servants almost fell apart.
Even after Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Qin's rectification, the atmosphere cannot be reversed in a day or two.
Coupled with the influence of the Rongfu next door, problems such as snobbery still exist, but they are not so shameless.
He personally sent the person to the Ethnic Studies, gathered together several students from the Ethnic Studies, and headed out of the city to the terminal terminal of the canal, nearly a hundred miles away.
Neither the Ning Mansion nor the Clan Academy notified the Rong Mansion of the pick-up this time, so the Rong Mansion didn't know about it at all.
The group hurried slowly and hurriedly, and it took only one day to arrive in Tongzhou, where the canal terminal is located, and they booked a medium-sized inn.
If Jia Zhen was the head of the family, they wouldn't be able to settle down easily without a top-notch hotel.
As the terminus of the Grand Canal that runs from north to south, Tongzhou Wharf is naturally very noisy and lively.
Thousands of sails competed on the wide canal, and several docks were crowded with people.
There are several long queues of ships preparing to dock, and the coolies at the dock are as hardworking and tireless as ants.
The servants of the Ning Mansion and the ethnology students were just amazed at this scene and didn't take it to heart.
If Jia Rong were to come again, the first thing he would think of would be how to expand the wharf and build more trestles and docking points.
At the same time, power devices such as pulleys and suspension bridges were added, and tracks were built to improve the work efficiency of the wharf coolies.
You know, the Tongzhou Canal Terminal transports massive amounts of food supplies to the huge capital city. The daily cargo throughput is at least hundreds of thousands of taels in terms of money.
If the throughput efficiency of the terminal can be increased several times, the daily cargo throughput will be at least one million taels of silver.
Relying on a Tongzhou Wharf, Tongzhou can be built into one of the most prosperous places in the world.
Regardless of gossip, Lin Ruhai is still very considerate.
The Yiqian Ethnic Studies students and escorts who returned from Yangzhou took an official ship and landed easily, without having to wait in line for a civilian ship.
After receiving the person, the two groups of ethnic studies students were naturally overjoyed.
Only one year has passed, and the two groups of ethnic studies students are extremely familiar with each other.
But it was precisely because of their familiarity that the ethnic studies students who returned from Yangzhou were so greatly changed that the classmates who greeted them were particularly surprised.
Everyone has a calm demeanor, and their bodies seem to be much stronger than a year ago.
Especially their eyes seemed to contain a lot of things that the ethnology students who greeted them had a hard time understanding.
Every move is very orderly, giving people a feeling of being calm and capable, not to be underestimated, quite exaggerated.
When we arrived at the middle-class inn that we had reserved in advance and was repairing it, we had a rough understanding of the rotation students' colorful experiences in Yangzhou.
It can really be described as colorful, which is no exaggeration!
When the rotation students who came back from Yangzhou were introduced, they did not blindly report the good news but not the bad news. They briefly recounted the good and the bad.
The prosperity of Yangzhou, the romance of Yangzhou, and the cultural atmosphere of Yangzhou are all intoxicating for the ethnic studies students who rotate there.
But it is also a place of right and wrong. How many people's attention has been attracted by a single piece of salt, and how many private crimes have been implicated?
In short, even though it was just a simple narration, the welcoming servants of Ning Mansion and the ethnic studies students were still fascinated by it.
At this time, they could also understand why the rotation students who returned from Yangzhou had such strange temperaments.
If it were them, they would have experienced huge changes after experiencing so many things.
"To be honest, you can learn a lot of knowledge and experience from Master Lin that you can't learn from books!"
"If it hadn't been for the clan's request and the arrangements had been made early, we would really not have wanted to come back so early!"
"Just by studying literature with Mr. Lin, our own level has improved rapidly. At least it won't be a problem to become a scholar!"
"After we return to the capital, we will study hard and strive to all be admitted as scholars next year. In this way, we will live up to the cultivation of our family and Master Lin!"
"I just hope that there will be opportunities to work with Mr. Lin in the future, and we will do better by then..."
