"Excuse me! There is something new in the court! Wei Zheng vomited three liters of blood and was fined half a year's salary by Zhu Luhou! I'm sorry!"
A boy selling newspapers ran past the door. Wei Yingluo stopped him, took out three cents from her purse and handed it over. Among the three cents, two cents were newspaper money, and the extra cent belonged to the child.
Money for running errands is already an unspoken rule in the market.
The so-called "outside" is a new term. Datang Daily publishes once a day, so there is no need for "outside", but it is published in the "ten-day magazine" and "monthly" published at a fixed time every month, but the news is
occurs in real time, then a major event occurs during the period between the previous issue being published and the next issue not being published. Newspapers and periodicals that are temporarily compiled and printed to deliver news quickly and timely cannot be included in the original numbering. This is called
'Outside of the Hao'. But for the people in Chang'an City, there is actually no such thing. After all, the newspapers they read are the most timely. Calling 'Outside of the Hao' is just a way of shouting, and by the way, it is used to fool outsiders.
"Thank you sister."
The newsboy took the copper coins, put them into a close-fitting cloth bag, and ran away again with great bounds.
When Wei Yingluo lived at Datang Insurance, she actually subscribed to the newspaper. But yesterday she accepted Li Mu's new order and became the director of the Fengchen Bureau. She moved out of Datang Insurance and moved into the building that was being built.
In the yard of Fengchen Bureau, but this is also a temporary place. The office of the Ministry of Internal Affairs is under construction. It is next to the root of the imperial city and opposite the residence of Yue King Li Tai. This place was originally Li Yuanji's old residence.
It was abandoned and was bulldozed by Li Mu and rebuilt into the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
In the end, Pearl did not accept Wei Yingluo's suggestion and stayed at Datang Insurance to take charge of her own business. She chose to continue to follow Wei Yingluo and is now also in Fengchen Bureau. But she also has an official status. Wei Yingluo is the "Director" of the sixth grade, and Pearl
Then he became the "director" of the seventh rank, but it was meaningless because there were only two people in the Fengchen Bureau now.
It was said that the newcomer would come to report within three days. Wei Yingluo didn't know where he was from, so she didn't ask. She didn't even know what the Fengchen Bureau did now. She only knew that she would deal with the palace in the future, which was why she used it.
The reason why she is the 'director' as a woman is because it is not convenient for men to enter and leave the palace.
Pearl stretched her head to read the newspaper, handed Wei Yingluo a cup of tea, and complained: "Master Hou and our master had some grudges in their previous lives, and they were at each other's throats all day long. After all, our master is old, Hou.
I won’t let him go even a little bit.”
Wei Yingluo sighed and said, "You can't blame the Marquis entirely. Daddy's temper..."
"I know." Pearl muttered, "But it's the master after all. He is your father."
"Well..." Wei Yingluo finished reading the newspaper, put it aside, and said, "Zhuzhu, you are fine today. Let's buy some supplements and go home to see dad."
"Okay!" Pearl stood up happily. For her, Wei Mansion was also her home. She went back to the room and took out a baggage and said, "This is the cloth I bought in the West Market a few days ago. I just took it back to give
Madam, please make a new set of clothes."
"Yeah. I'll call a taxi."
Wei Yingluo opened the door and walked towards the Ministry of Works not far away. The Ministry of Works prepared carriages for officials, but they were not equipped for everyone, but shared. The carriages and drivers came from Li's carriage and horse shop in Zhaojun.
As long as there are still idle carriages, you can apply for use, and the cost will be borne by the Ministry of Industry.
Wei Yingluo had been Li Mu's assistant before, and everyone in the Ministry of Industry knew her. If she wanted to use the car, no one would make things difficult for her. After a simple registration, Wei Yingluo applied for a carriage and came back to pick up Pearl.
Went home together.
The conflict between father and daughter has eased a lot over time. During the Chinese New Year, Wei Yingluo and Pearl also spent time at home. Although Wei Zheng still treated them politely, he would not say anything unpleasant.
, basically adopting a laissez-faire attitude.
When she arrived at the door, she saw many carriages parked in front of the door. Wei Yingluo asked the housekeeper to go around to the back door and entered the yard through the back door.
The noise in the front hall could be heard very clearly through the window and in the backyard. Wei Yingluo stopped and listened for a while, thinking about how to deal with Li Mu. She sighed, thinking that it was these people who
It pushed my father to this level. Without these people, my father might not have had such a conflict with Mr. Marquis. Now that my father is ill, these people are still gathering together and shouting, not even giving them time to rest. They don’t know what kind of father he is.
What do you think? Do you have to contact these people?
"Yingluo, come here."
",mother,"
Wei Zheng's wife Pei called out, and Wei Yingluo entered the room and stopped listening.
"Mom, how is daddy's health? I read in the newspaper that daddy vomited three liters of blood..."
Mrs. Pei smiled bitterly and said: "Silly boy, you vomited three liters of blood and died. How is it possible? Your father is fine. He just couldn't tell me. He fainted because of the heat. He just drank the decoction to clear the fire. Look, it's not worth it."
Are you discussing things in the front hall?"
Wei Yingluo took a long breath and said, "It's okay, daddy." After saying that, she took out her purse from her arms, handed it to Pei, and said, "Mom, this is the salary I just paid. It's all here. You
Leave it to buy some supplements for daddy."
"Salary?" Pei frowned and said, "Yingluo, isn't the salary just for officials? You work as a maid at Zhuluhou, and you are given a monthly salary."
Pearl had been holding back for a long time, and she couldn't help but interjected: "Old madam, you don't know something. The young lady and I are both people with official status now. I am the seventh grade, the lady is the sixth grade, and we are serving as servants of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
We have the final say in the Chen Bureau. This money was given as a reward by the Marquis in advance. He said that he had to buy some things for a new place. We didn’t have anything to buy, so of course we took it back to Madam."
"Official status?" Ms. Pei also came from a wealthy family, but she had never heard of a woman being an official, so she still didn't believe it. Pearl showed her the seal she just got yesterday, and she believed it. But still
Feeling incomprehensible, he murmured to himself: "This Zhuluhou is really unexpected. He actually let a woman become an official. Isn't it nonsense for him to do this?"
"Old madam," Pearl explained, "The Marquis has always treated his subordinates based on their ability, regardless of gender. When the young lady had no official status before, she often helped the Marquis with very important things. Everyone in the Ministry of Works treated them
The young lady is regarded as the confidant of the Marquis. Who dares not to listen to what the young lady says? Now that she has been given an official status, it is what the young lady deserves. Even the seventh-grade official of Pearl is not in vain, the Hou Ye
As I said, you earned this by yourself, and you must act openly and openly in the future, and don’t be afraid of other people’s comments.”
"Okay, Pearl, please stop saying a few words." Wei Yingluo interrupted Pearl's showoff. When she returned home, she just wanted to be the youngest daughter of the family as before and didn't want to get involved in outside matters.
