It was August 20, the fourth year of Dalong's reign.
In the more than two months after Liu Chengfeng led the Dalong Mission to Tsarist Russia, Liu Mingzhi spent 80% of his life living between three o'clock and one line.
In the upper dynasty, he worked diligently to handle government affairs, and in the next dynasty, he rushed to the Gua stall to swindle a few tea money, and then returned home to spend time happily with his wife, children, and children. The days were dull but fulfilling.
In addition, the regular trips to Chen Jie took up part of the time spent at the home of He Shu and the two daughters. Liu Mingzhi has left the capital only a handful of times in the past two months.
Behind the Gua stall outside Penglai Restaurant, Young Master Liu held ten coins in his hand with a smile on his face, watching a young man in his early twenties walk away while waving his folding fan.
"Young master, please go slowly. If there is any need for Shanren's explanation in the future, please come and take care of Shanren's business at any time."
Putting the ten coins into his sleeves, Young Master Liu shook his jade fan and stretched his body and walked towards the bookstall guarded by Liu Song.
"Komatsu."
"Hey, young master is here, is it time to eat?"
Young Master Liu looked up at Tianse and shook his head helplessly: "Eat, eat, eat, you know how to eat. Is it time to eat now?"
Liu Song raised his hand and clasped his forehead and said with a bitter smile: "I'm used to it. I'm used to it now. Master, do you have anything to tell me?"
"Due to busy government affairs a few days ago, Ruyi's Japanese young master did not rush back in time to pay homage to her. There shouldn't be any major issues these days.
The Palace of Ten Kings can handle some minor memorial documents and cabinets. I plan to take the time to rush back to Jiangnan so that I can pay homage to my sister Ruyi.
By the way, I would like to pay a visit to my father-in-law and my father-in-law. Now my brother-in-law has been assigned by me to the North to serve as the governor of two provinces. The distance from Aurous Ling is thousands of miles further than my son-in-law.
More than half a year has passed in a hurry. The two elders must miss their children very much.
This young master plans to take Yun'er, Sister Ya, Yun Shu... Chengzhi, Yaoyao, Lingyun and their mothers back together, so that they can not only pay homage to Ruyi, but also accompany their two elders to reunite with the old man.
So in the following days, if you want to set up a stall, you can set up a stall. If you don't want to set up a stall, just take a good rest at home.
You can also accompany your wife and children. "
"Hey, I understand, young master. When does the young master plan to set off?"
"Let's set off immediately. The young master and the young lady have made an agreement a few days ago. I will be on my way as soon as I get back."
"Okay, young master, just go back first and leave the cleaning of the stall to me."
"Okay, then I'll go back first."
"Master, walk slowly."
Young Master Liu waved his folding fan and walked towards the street. Along the way, he bought all kinds of gift boxes, large and small, and rushed back home.
As soon as he passed through the arch of the inner courtyard, Liu Mingzhi howled at the top of his lungs.
"Yun'er, Sister Ya...are your bags ready? My husband is back. Pack your bags and we can set off on our journey."
As soon as Young Master Liu finished speaking, a large group of beauties in various courtyards put down their work, hurriedly ran out of their respective boudoirs, and gathered towards Qi Yun's courtyard.
As soon as Liu Mingzhi walked into Qi Yun's boudoir with large and small gift boxes in his hands, a group of beauties followed him closely.
"Sir, are we going back to Jiangnan?"
"Husband, can you wait for me? I found out the news late, and I still have some personal clothes that I have to pack away!"
"I am the same, I am the same. I sent my maid to buy gifts for Uncle Qi and Aunt Qi.
The maid hasn't come back yet, can we wait a little longer? You can't let me come to the door empty-handed, right? That would be rude. "
"Yes, yes, sister Rongrong is very considerate. I have to go and prepare some gifts quickly."
More than a dozen beauties rushed into Qi Yun's boudoir like a swarm, and before Young Master Liu could react what was going on, they started talking loudly.
Young Master Liu was stunned as he looked at a group of pretty ladies and placed the gift box in his hand on the table.
"Wanyan, Junyao, Xiaoxi, Qingshi, Bizhu, Rongrong... Do you also want to go back to Jiangnan with your husband?"
When the girls heard their husband's questioning words, their eyebrows tightened and their pretty faces were filled with anger. They subconsciously grabbed their waists with their hands and stared at Young Master Liu intently.
"Liu Mingzhi, what do you mean by saying this, you heartless person? You have no intention of taking my mother and sisters back to Jinling with you?"
"Smelly husband, how could you do this? The sisters packed their bags happily and prepared to go back to Aurous Hill with you. It turns out that you had no intention of taking your concubine sisters with you.
You've gone too far. Aren't we all your wives? "
"That's right, that's right, we agreed during the bridal night that we would not be separated from each other? Why did you only bring Sister Yun, Sister Ya and the others with you, while leaving the concubines and sisters at home alone to guard the empty room?
Isn't this too unfair? "
"That's right, Sister Yun asked us to go back together. Bad husband, you don't want to take our sisters with you?"
"ungrateful."
"Heartless person."
"Smelly man."
"I've seen something different and changed my mind."
"My heart and my mouth are different."
"..."
"Three-sucking man."
"Big kidney deficiency."
The complaints of the girls stopped abruptly, and they all turned their attention to Ying'er, who was pinching Liu Yao with both hands and her pretty face was full of anger.
Young Master Liu looked at Ying'er with trembling lips. Is this what his well-behaved little Ying'er could say?
Big kidney deficiency? It's very hurtful and even more insulting.
Ying'er felt the embarrassment and playful looks of Young Master Liu and the sisters. She was stunned for a moment and hurriedly retreated behind Qi Ya and lowered her head.
"I...I...my sisters have all said what needs to be said, and Ying'er can only say it smoothly."
The girls looked at Ying'er's cowardly look, glanced back at Young Master Liu who looked embarrassed, and then looked away pretending to look at the layout of Qi Yun's boudoir.
Young Master Liu took a deep breath, pointed at Ying'er several times, and looked around at the pretentious beauties.
"To put it mildly, Yao'er, Bizhu, Lingyi... it's not like my husband has never thought of taking you back to Jinling, but you all know your own situation.
Which one is not a child at your knees and is still young?
Especially to put it bluntly on your side, this kid Cheng Rui is not yet over one year old! Besides, you guys have just given birth to children not long ago.
Going back to Jinling in the south of the Yangtze River is neither far nor too close.
Aren't you worried that your bodies and bones won't be able to bear it after the long journey?
My husband is obviously thinking about your health, so why do you think my husband is like an ungrateful bad person?
Listen to what you said, my husband feels like he is being pricked with needles. "
The beauties looked at Young Master Liu's aggrieved and aggrieved posture, looked at each other and saw the embarrassment in each other's eyes.
"Husband, I know I was wrong."
"I also know that I was wrong."
"Good husband, you have a lot of money, why don't you treat me like a little girl?"
"Husband..."
"..."
"Yes, yes, I'm afraid of you. If I continue to shake my husband's bones, his bones will fall apart. I forgive you."
"Thank you, husband. What about my sisters coming back to Aurous Hill with you?"
Liu Mingzhi tapped Yun Xiaoxi's forehead with his finger and looked at the expectant eyes of the girls: "You all want to go back together?"
The girls nodded in unison and said in unison: "I think so."
"Well, as long as you are not afraid of getting tired, then let's go back together, you guys! If I want you to be more comfortable, you have to ask for trouble, why bother?
Let's all pack up and go. We'll set off in half an hour. "
"good."
The girls responded and ran out of Qi Yun's boudoir like birds and animals.
Young Master Liu straightened out the messy clothes that had been pulled by the girls, looked at Qi Yun's narrow eyes, sighed and shook his head.
"Ying'er, this stinky girl, looks like she needs a good whipping on the way back to Jinling. Otherwise, this stinky girl may have forgotten that she couldn't come out for three days..."
"Brother-in-law!"
Before Liu Mingzhi could finish his sentence, he heard the breathless voices outside the door and looked over.
I saw Wanyan Feixiong pressing his knees with his hands, breathing heavily and looking at him with excitement on his face.
"Feixiong, come in quickly and sit down for a while. Shouldn't you be teaching students at the Academy of Sciences at this time? Why are you so tired?"
"I won't sit down anymore, I won't sit down anymore."
"Brother-in-law, I finally figured out how to use the black water, and finally figured it out."
Young Master Liu, who was about to invite Wanyan Feixiong to come in and have a rest, was startled for a moment, and his eyes lit up when he looked at the panting Wanyan Feixiong.
"Have you found a way to use oil... black water?"
"Yes, there is only one last idea left. Come with me to the Academy of Sciences. Maybe you can provide me with some inspiration."
Liu Mingzhi nodded excitedly: "Okay, let's go right away."
Qi Yun watched in surprise as the two brothers ran towards the outside of the courtyard and hurriedly chased after them.
"Husband? Can we go back to Jinling?"
"Come back, pack your bags and go on your way first. After you finish your work for your husband, I'll go straight to catch up with you."
