Chapter 44

Every spring, the rivers thaw, which is the time for the recovery of trade routes. At this time of year, Canglong Mansion is also busy, with motorcades from all over the country passing in and out, transferring a large amount of goods to all parts of the country.

In addition to the business transportation, another exciting thing started at this time, that is, learning/transportation.

Although the admission of Xiyue College started at the beginning of summer, it was a long journey and I was afraid of delaying my trip. I started to prepare for departure at this time.

This year, Tang Jie was sixteen, Shi Meng was fifteen, and the young master was fifteen and a half. The once ignorant young men have grown into handsome young men one by one. Some of them are tall. They are almost catching up with adults. People have become more mature and sensible than before.

Today's Wu Family is very lively.

As soon as Tang Qiang came in from the door, he saw the couple of Wu Laohan taking things from the house in large packages, including quilts, clothes and shoes.

Tang Jie was surprised: "Dad, Mom, what are you doing?"

"Hey, aren't you going to Beijing tomorrow? I have to prepare your winter clothes for you." Old Madam Wu answered while sorting.

"But isn't winter just over?"

"Then don't you want to spend the winter next year? What about the year after tomorrow?" Old Madam Wu gave her son a dirty look.

Tang Jie was helpless: "Then we can wait until next year. If we can't, we can just buy more."

"Is that possible? Everything in Beijing is expensive. Look at our clothes. They are all good. It's a pity that no one wears them." Old Lady Wu waved a small jacket in her hand.

Old man Wu could not bear to look at it: "Old lady, you wore it when Xing Er was young. Don't give it to him. Young people don't wear old clothes now."

"It's new. It's a pity not to wear it." The old lady murmured, but she put down her clothes and picked some more for Tang Qiang to release.

Then he put another small cloth bag in his hand. He took Tang's hand and said, "There are twenty-three and twenty-four coins in it. You can put it away. You can use it if you go to Beijing."

The robber of Tang Dynasty shrank back and said, "Mom, what are you doing? I don't lack money. The Wei Mansion has a monthly routine every month."

After becoming a servant school, the treatment of Tang Zhai and Shimeng has changed. They can get ten liang silver a month, which is equivalent to ten thousand yuan a month in the world. They are also small white-collar workers. Besides the basic expenses of the college, the Wei family is responsible for them.

"Alas, those months are of no use. Don't think that my mother doesn't know that the institute of cultivating immortals costs a lot. It's just that all the childrens of everyone shout that money is not enough every day. Fortunately, I've heard from you!"

"Brother Lucky wrote to tell you that the money is not enough?" Tang Robbery didn't detect it correctly.

Old Lady Wu's face stopped for a moment, and then she said with a dry smile, "This is not a letter that came recently. It says that you want to buy some medicine, but there is no money to buy it..."

"How much does he want?"

"Five hundred liang, but we didn't have so much, so we gave him one hundred liang."

"One hundred taels? You have given him a lot of money over the years. Where is there one hundred taels left?" Hearing this, Tang Jie suddenly woke up and shouted, "Did you give him all the money I gave you these years?"

The two elders bowed their heads in embarrassment.

Tang Jae's anger surged in his heart: "Why are you hiding it from me? That's the money I gave you to buy medicine!"

These years, because he spent most of his time in the Wei Mansion, Tang Zhai can only come here occasionally to have a look. In addition to sometimes buying medicine by himself after receiving a reward, he often gives the silver to the two elders directly to let them buy some medicine to recuperate themselves.

Now it seems that they didn't spend any money except those bought by Tang Dynasty robbers.

"Oh, nothing more." Old Man Wu hurriedly caught Tang Jie and said, "We are all living at such an age. It's OK to live a few more days and live a few fewer days. Besides, look at our body and bones. It's good."

He thumped his chest a few times, but the force was too big, which made him cough again and again. The old man quickly waved his hand: "I'm fine, I'm fine, but I'm a little sulky recently..."

Old Lady Wu has come forward and put the cloth bag in Tang Jai's hand. She is embarrassed and said: "You gave us the silver, and kept it behind your back. She wanted to give it to you when you entered the school, but luckily she wanted it, so she gave it to him. This is a little sorry for you. We have got some more..."

"That's not what I'm angry about!" Tang Jie shook his head and said, "Wu Xing has his own hands and feet. He can earn money by himself! A hundred liang silver is useless in the college. I'm afraid you can't even buy a real elixir, but it can make you feel better and enjoy your life. But you..."

He wanted to get angry, but he couldn't get angry with them. He could only stamp his feet and secretly hated Wu Xing for not being sensible.

The two old men said, "I can help some after all."

Seeing the two elders in a dilemma, Tang Jie suddenly lost his anger, but his eyes were moist.

For a long time, he said, "Forget it. Even if you didn't give it, you didn't buy any medicine. Just give it. I hope he won't let you down."

Hearing Tang Jie's words, the two elders were relieved. Old Lady Wu insisted on giving Tang Jie the silver. Tang Jie knew that if he didn't accept it, he was afraid it would be even worse, so he had to accept it. He was going to find a way to get some really good panacea to send to the two elders after he arrived at the college.

Tang Jai didn't let the two elders move again that day. He cleaned up all the things at home by himself. He didn't rest until he waited on the two elders to sleep.

Lying in bed, Tang Jieyou thought of leaving this time, but he did not know when he would see the two elders again.

In the past three years, the two elders have already regarded him as their own son, and he has always regarded them as their parents.

Now we are going to travel far away. After many years, Tang Jai can't help feeling sad.

The next morning, Tang Zhai returned to the Wei House with a large bag of clothes. He only saw the Jingxin Garden was bustling with traffic, and countless servants were busy packing up for the young master. It seemed that this posture was not like going to school, but to move the whole family.

Although there are only three students enrolled in the school, there are more than ten servants accompanying Wanquan City all the way, and even one spirit master follows them to ensure the safety along the road. Even if you do arrive in Wanquancheng, there will be some servants outside Xiyue College. The servant school you are enrolled in is responsible for the life in the college.

Tang Zhai bypassed the crowd and returned to his hut in the Wei Mansion, only to find that Steward Qin was waiting there.

"Uncle Qin!" Tang Qiang shouted.

Steward Qin looked at Tang Jie with a smile and said, "Tomorrow is going to be on the road. Are you all ready?"

"Well, just tidy up the room again." Tang Jie answered.

They went into the room together. Tang Zhai packed the pens, ink sticks, paper and inkstones and some civilian clothes that were placed on the table, and then took the two potted flowers off the table.

Steward Qin was surprised: "Are you going to take these two pots of flowers?"

Tang Jie laughed and said, "I learned to plant flowers without learning anything else in Wei Mansion for such a long time. These two potted flowers have been with me for a long time. Seeing them, I will remember my years here, so I decided to take them as a souvenir."

Steward Qin looked at the pot of small white flowers, a pot of straight and sturdy root carvings, and the pot that Tang Zhai had made himself. He was so ugly that he shook his head with a smile

Then Steward Qin said, "Yes, you should take the silver first, and use it when you get into school."

Steward Qin also took out a bag of silver to give to Tang Jie.

"Uncle Qin!"

"Keep it." Steward Qin replied with a smile, "I know the two elders of the Wu family must have given you some silver, but money is not too much. After going to Xiyue College, it is no longer the Wei family. If you need anything, I can't help you. You have to rely on yourself."

"That's not necessarily true. In fact, there is one thing Uncle Qin can still help."

"Oh? What else do you want me to do for you?" Steward Qin smiled casually.

"It's nothing. I just want Uncle Qin to write some more letters for me..."

———————————————

Take those two potted flowers back to the Jingxin Garden, and everyone was surprised to see them.

However, Tang Zhai is now the famous man in the Wei Mansion. His wife doesn't think much of him. He even gave him the family law. Just a "promising future" is enough to make all servants dare not laugh.

There are seven motorcades in the school, including three for the young master's luggage alone, and four for the young master's rest, one for the spiritual master, one for other servants, and one for serving dreams and robbing Tang Dynasty.

Because the young master needs people to serve him, Shimeng and Tang Jie take turns. However, Tang Jie doesn't give much personal service to the young master, so Shimeng is mainly responsible for this. Tang Jie is mainly responsible for supervising the young master's cultivation after going to the college, and restraining his behavior to prevent him from causing trouble.

Therefore, along the way, Tang Jiedao was destined to be much easier than waiting for dreams.

At noon, they finally packed up. After a light meal, the motorcade went on the road. Zheng Shufeng watched his son go and said goodbye to him all the way. He told Tang Zhai all the time. Then he was tearful when everyone persuaded the motorcade to leave.

After getting on the road, Shi Mengxian went to the young master, and Tang Jie sat alone in the car, looking at the outside scenery through the window.

The scenery outside the window is slowly receding, gradually fading away, and gradually even the greeting and seeing off crowd has become a small black spot, disappeared in the eyes

"Hee hee!" Laughter came from behind my head.

Little Yiyi climbed onto Tang Jie's shoulder. At this time, there was only one pot left of those two pots of flowers, but the sturdy root carving was still standing alone in the pot.

Today's Yi Yi has grown up much more than when he saw Tang Zao.

The former Thumbelina is now more than 20 cm tall. Although she still looks exquisite, she is no longer a little bit that people worry about at any time and will be trampled to death if they walk carelessly.

Lie on Tang Qiang like a little squirrel. Yi looks out of the window curiously: "Brother, are we finally going to leave here?"

"Yes, I'm leaving." Tang Jie answered mechanically, and suddenly remembered the feeling of leaving home that Miss Four had said.

Yes, there are always some people you can't give up!

On the contrary, this little guy has been with himself since he was born. He has never contacted any outsiders and is heartless. He only feels extremely curious and fresh about traveling.

She giggled and asked Tang Jie, "Is the outside world wonderful?"

"Wonderful."

"Is the outside world beautiful?"

"Good looking."

"Can I go out and play by myself?"

"... No, at least not yet."

Little Yi's interest immediately fell.

She chewed her mouth and said, "Hate! Hate! Hate!"

The voice full of childlike innocence finally made Tang Zhai feel less sad about leaving. He touched the little guy's head and said, "OK, stop making trouble. Here, let's reward you, OK?"

Tang Jie hands his finger over.

Unexpectedly, the little guy threw his head: "No!"

"Why?"

"Because my brother's blood is getting worse and worse."

"Tasty?" Tang Jie was surprised: "It's impossible. It's the original recipe and the original taste."

"That's not the point!" Little Yi jumped on his shoulder and shouted: "It's not bad, it's hard... it's hard... it's just... it's hard to drink... it's hard!"

Little Yi danced and drew out what she wanted to say.

Tang Jie then realized that recently, little Yi was sucking his blood for no reason, but it was getting more and more difficult. It often took a lot of effort to suck out a little.

Hearing this, Tang Jie was surprised. He looked down at his hand. He saw that the skin was as warm as white jade. It was not like a worker's hand at all. Tang Jae bit his hand hard, but he couldn't bite it. He finally bit it with more force. A little blood bead oozed out and lingered on his fingertips, but it didn't fall.

"Blood is like mercury!" Tang Jie blurted out.
