Yunxi would not pay much attention to this group of women who were not very good-looking. Besides, even if they were good-looking, Yunxi would not pay much attention to them. He was not here to see beautiful women today. He saw them along the way.
Based on the situation of these families, it can be judged that their lives are quite easy now. The government has paid for them to build houses, and military pay has been paid out on time, with no deduction of military pay. Moreover, the Twelve Guards are different from other guards in that they do not need to
I farm my own land, so my family has free time. The family has a large population, and my daughter-in-law does some sewing and sells it out, which is enough for the family.
Yunxi passed by the houses of Chen Xing and Yang Feng successively, but did not go in after looking at them. After walking a few more steps, he walked to a house that looked older. A guard behind him, named Qin Nan, stepped forward and said
: "Your Highness, this is my house."
Yunxi asked: "I remember your family is a hereditary Qianhu family. Why is the house so old?"
Qin Nan said with a sad face: "Your Highness, although my family is a hereditary family, my father contracted a disease on the battlefield and was in poor health. That's all. One year, a bastard doctor came from nowhere and said
My father's illness could be cured. In order to cure my father's illness, my family spent all their savings and incurred a lot of debt. As a result, the cure was not cured. The doctor saw that the situation was not good and ran away.
The money my family owed at that time has not been paid off yet, so we still have money to repair our house."
After Yunxi heard what he said, he immediately said: "Why didn't you tell me earlier about your family's situation? How much money do you owe?" At the same time, he motioned to Wang Bu to take out his money bag.
Qin Nan said: "This is all my family's fault. How can I accept His Highness's favor?" Yunxi asked him again and again, but he just repeated this sentence.
At this time Yang Feng said: "Qin Nan, His Highness cares about you so much, just accept it. Your Highness, the Qin family owed a total of 200 guan of money at the beginning, and after repaying it over the years, there are still 80 guan of money that has not been repaid."
While Yunxi was wondering why Yang Feng came out to say this, he asked Wang Bu to take out the money and give it to Qin Nan. Wang Bu took out twenty taels of silver and handed it to Qin Nan. Qin Nan could only accept it.
Yunxi knew that Wang Bu only brought this amount of money with him, so he said to Qin Nan: "I only brought this amount of money today. Later you can take your brothers to Heyan Village to collect 200 shi of food and come back."
Qin Nan wanted to refuse again, Yun He's eyes widened, and Qin Nan had no choice but to accept it.
They were waiting at the door when two pretty and cute girls of twelve or thirteen years old came out. As soon as they walked out of the door, they were shocked to see such tall men standing at the door.
Jump. The girl who looked older recognized Qin Nan, breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Qin Nan: "First cousin of the Qin family, why are you standing at the door of your house and not going in?" Then she said to Yang Feng: "Cousin of the Yang family.
, these are your friends!”
Yunxi was immediately surprised. Although the two little girls were good-looking, he was not surprised because of their beauty. After all, there were many beautiful women in the palace; but they actually looked almost exactly the same, except that
There is a difference in height, but there is almost no difference in other aspects.
Qin Nan replied vaguely: "My cousin has something to do and he is not going home yet. He is just passing by here." Then he said to them: "Why are you here? Also, why is there no one with you? What if something happens!"
The girl who just spoke smiled and replied with a smile: "Cousin, are you imitating Dayu's flood control and not entering the house three times? Your family still owes debts. My father refuses to use money to help you pay off the debts.
Let's do some sewing for my aunt so that she can pay off her debt. This is a workshop, so what else can happen."
Qin Nan was not in the mood to say more to them, but just said: "You must never do this in the future. Even if you are in the workshop, you must bring your servants out with you."
The man said impatiently: "I know! Cousin Qin! We must pay attention to it in the future."
At this time Yunxi said: "Brother Qin, since you are worried about your cousins, let's just send them back along the way."
Qin Nan actually had this intention, but was embarrassed to say it. Now Yunxi took the initiative and immediately replied happily: "Thank you, Mr. Sun, for your forgiveness." Then he turned to his cousins and said: "Let's go, I will take you back.
." Because there were too few people with the surname 'Yun', Yunxi ordered the guards to call him 'Master Sun' outside the palace.
Yunxi was also inconvenient to talk to the little girl, so he asked Qin Nan to accompany them at the end. He asked Yang Feng: "Are you still related to Qin Nan? I just found out today. No wonder you came forward to tell me Qin Nan
The family’s debt.”
Yang Feng replied: "Your Highness, Chen's mother and Qin Nan's mother are biological sisters. They are both hereditary members of the Jinwu Guards. They are the sisters of Xue Ning, who is now the commander of the Jinwu Guards."
Yunxi asked: "Is this Xue Ning a member of the clan of Duke Huanxiang (Note 1)?"
Yang Feng said: "Your Highness, my uncle is indeed a member of Duke Huanxiang's clan, but he is only a distant relative, so he did not receive much favor from Duke Huanxiang. When Duke Huanxiang pursued the remnants of Hu Weiyong's party, he did not implicate my uncle."
Yunxi was thoughtful. Yang Feng was afraid that Yunxi would misunderstand that his uncle disliked the poor and loved the rich, so he said: "Your Highness should have heard what my two cousins just said. In fact, my uncle is not a person who dislikes the poor and loves the rich. In fact, it is Duke Huanxiang who pursues the rich."
When Hu Weiyong was in the remnant party, many close clan members were implicated. Only his family was fine, so many people came to his house to enjoy the autumn breeze. My uncle couldn't shut them all out, he had to help some, so even though he was in front of
My fellow commanders are living a tight life, but fortunately this is the capital and not their hometown, so it's better."
"And my uncle also exempted the Qin family from the thirty thousand dollars they owed to his family, which is not a penny."
Yunxi nodded and said he understood. This is another person who has been implicated by the family. Regarding the existence of the family, there are advantages and disadvantages. It is hard to say that they are all bad things. It depends on how most of the people in the family are doing.
Behind me, Sister Xue also asked secretly: "Cousin Qin, who is this 'Mr. Sun'? I don't think he is just an ordinary friend!" Although her sister seemed to be afraid to speak in front of everyone, her eyes were also searching.
look.
Qin Nan said: "I said sister Yaoer, please stop asking around."
However, although the little girl called 'Yao'er' did not get the answer, she still did not give up and said to herself: "Could it be the young master of some lord's family? The surname is Sun, let me think about who it should be.
."
Qin Nan couldn't interrupt her random thoughts, so he could only let her go.
After a while, they arrived at the door of the Xue family's mansion. Qin Nan watched the Xue family sisters enter.
At this time, Yunxi had already walked through the entire square and understood the general situation. He also saw that the sun was already setting in the west and it would take some time to get to the palace from here, so he said before they came up to ask:
"That's it for today. If you don't want to go any further, go back to the palace. If you're not on duty tonight, you can go home now. There's no need to send me back to the palace gate."
How could anyone else have any different opinions? But it was a coincidence that these people were all on duty today, so they all escorted him back to the palace city, all the way to Donghua Gate.
