No wonder everyone is surprised. In the four years since their brother and sister got together, they have been advancing and retreating together.
From the beginning, Xu Mo took the examination of children, to the examination of scholars, and then to the examination of people, interspersed with opening workshops, renting houses, and hiring people.
In almost all decisive events, the six siblings were involved.
The only exception was Fang Laosan who went to the frontier.
In Jiang Sheng's mind, if the eldest brother would try such an important thing, the second brother should also be waiting at the gate of Gongyuan, waiting eagerly for the eldest brother to come out.
But Zheng Ruqian just touched her head and said softly, "Silly Jiang Sheng, as people get older, time becomes valuable. Without me at the gate of Gongyuan, my eldest brother can still get the top prize. I won't go to the business in the north. You won’t be lucky enough to come back.”
"Yes, yes." Wang Xiaosong, who was also carrying a baggage, nodded crazily and was pulled into a corner by his sister Wang Xiaozhu.
"But..." Jiang Sheng stirred the corners of his clothes with both hands, "But the second brother has just come back not long ago, and he has to go away again. I can't bear to leave you."
They were obviously brothers and sisters who grew up together, but why were they so busy walking that their feet didn't even touch the ground.
Can those intimate days just become memories?
Seeing Jiang Sheng's expression becoming more and more aggrieved, with his big round eyes covered in tears, Zheng Ruqian rarely sighed, "Actually, I'm here to see if I can open up the northern Xinjiang line and give it to the third child in the future. It’s easy to give something away…”
The rest of the words were not finished.
Because in his sight, Jiang Sheng's expression changed from aggrieved to shocked, then stunned, and finally turned around in ecstasy.
She is obviously a chubby girl, but she is very nimble in carrying the hem of her skirt. She is even more agile when she rushes into the yard. She is not very good at carrying out the sausages and bacon that Aunt Zhang is going to eat for next meal, as well as the Jiuzhenfang pastries that she has secretly hidden, plus a few more. A spring and autumn blouse, and a dozen pairs of cloth shoes with thousand-layer soles.
After opening the curtain of the carriage, I found that there were many things inside, and everything was complete.
Zheng Ruqian raised his chin proudly, "I'm going to Northern Xinjiang. Why don't I bring something with me? I've long missed you."
Jiang Sheng glared at him, turned around and carried all the things he had prepared up, "It's not enough, please bring some more. Third brother is short of food and clothing out there, so it's always good to bring more."
After saying that, he turned around and walked into the yard again.
Wen Zhiyun and Chang Yan followed him at some point, searching for all the durable items.
It's all because the carriage is too small and can't fit in the entire yard.
Zheng Ruqian breathed in the January air-conditioning, feeling quite helpless, "Jiang Sheng, weren't you still reluctant to let me go just now?"
"I can't bear to part with you, but I can't bear to leave with my third brother even more. He won't be able to eat or wear well while celebrating the New Year alone." The little girl said plausibly, "Second brother should come early and say hello to the third brother for us."
Wen Zhiyun and Chang Yan nodded in unison, with eager eyes.
It can be seen that everyone misses Fang Heng.
Even Xu Mo coughed twice, took out a letter from his arms, and said with emotion, "I've been writing to Lao San for a long time, but I haven't found the traveler from Fengjing to Northern Xinjiang yet. I might as well leave it to you. Thank you for your hard work."
After saying that, I didn’t forget to pat him on the shoulder.
Zheng Ruqian felt unhappy, but he still took the envelope and hid it firmly in his arms.
After finally putting everything in, Jiang Sheng clapped his hands and said happily, "I hope Third Brother will be happy when he sees these things."
Zheng Ruqian hummed and sat on the carriage, completely unable to feel the sadness of parting.
But he still had to tell Jiang Sheng, "Jiuzhenfang and the workshop will all be left to you from now on."
"Second brother, don't worry." Jiang Sheng waved his hand, with a glimmer of light hanging from the corners of his eyes.
Zheng Ruqian finally sat back in the carriage with satisfaction.
Wang Xiaosong pulled the reins, grinned at Wang Xiaozhu, and ran towards the distance.
When he chose the transportation route, it meant that Zheng Ruqian had to run east to west and could not sit still in the house.
But fortunately, no matter when they come back, there is always someone waiting for them at home.
The two of them were immersed in the mood of parting when the sound of horse hooves suddenly came from behind, followed by two urgent calls, "Second Young Master, Second Young Master, wait a minute."
Wang Xiaosong stopped the carriage urgently.
Zheng Ruqian stretched out his head and saw Jiang San and Jiang Si smiling stupidly, as well as the huge bundles in their arms.
"Second Young Master, we have also prepared something for the brothers. Please take Second Young Master with you." Jiang San dismounted and prayed softly.
Jiang Si scratched his head, "I took the land a little hastily, I hope brothers don't mind."
Why would you mind?
What is transported thousands of miles away are all thoughts, not to mention the thoughts of countless relatives mixed in.
Although there was not much space behind him, Zheng Ruqian still arranged his position and placed the two large baggage.
The carriage took off again, heading towards the distant northern border.
Jiang San and Jiang Si waved their hands in unison, choking and saying, "Second Young Master, please tell them that we miss them."
Want it so so much.
If people take away items, let the wind sweep them away and send them to their loved ones.
Jiang San and Jiang Si stood there for a long time, and then returned to the small courtyard until the carriage disappeared.
The master's brother and sister were still there. When he saw the two of them, Jiang Sheng asked eagerly, "Have you caught up? Have you brought your things?"
"Bring it with me, thank you girl for reminding me." Jiang San and Jiang Si thanked her sincerely.
Jiang Sheng waved his hand, "Second brother is too strict with his words. He only revealed the news today. I don't know if the things packed are enough for third brother to eat."
Xu Mo was laughing and crying beside him. He wanted to tell his sister that there was no shortage of anything in the military camp, but after thinking about it because of his family's wishes, he swallowed it back.
The Imperial Academy had already started school. He glanced at the sun, picked up his pen, ink, paper and inkstone and left.
Just like Zheng Ruqian said, everyone has grown up and everyone has their own things to do. It is impossible to cuddle up, laugh, and accompany each other all day long like before.
The eldest brother wants to go to school, the second brother wants to do business, and the third brother wants to earn military merit. Everyone is busy.
Fortunately, she still has a fourth brother and a fifth brother.
Jiang Sheng sniffed and moved closer to his two brothers, only to find that they were muttering something. There was a gleam in their eyes, and there was a hint of ill-intention.
"Does it have to be now? It's not very good." Wen Zhiyun said timidly.
The old god of Changyan is here, "Fourth brother believes me right. I can make money and continue to subsidize the poor people. Isn't that good?"
"Okay... of course that's good." Wen Zhiyun gritted his teeth, "Then I'll listen to you."
The two finally hit it off, invited Jiang San and Jiang Si, got into the carriage and were about to go.
Jiang Sheng jumped out of the car, climbed onto the car's shaft neatly with his hands and feet, and grinned, "Where are the fourth and fifth brothers going? Let's go together."
Chang Yan had already noticed his tiptoeing sister, sitting upright without saying anything.
But Wen Zhiyun was startled, panicking like a little rabbit, "We...we...let's go to the hospital."
