On the bustling streets of Kyoto, people are bustling and strolling.
Suddenly, I heard the dispersing sounds of officers and soldiers coming from the city gate, "Everyone give way, give way, the caravan has entered the city, stand aside."
As people in the capital, everyone is accustomed to this kind of thing.
Big shots go out of town every day, and then they have to get out of the way.
I saw a long queue entering the city.
There were several carriages at the beginning, followed by carriages escorting wooden boxes, surrounded by many officers and soldiers wearing armor on both sides.
The flag has big Chinese characters written on it, and there is a strange pattern on the corner.
"Is it the convoy of the Imperial Merchant Bai family? This year's medicine was delivered very early."
"There is a shortage of medicines. I guess the royal family has urged us. Many people have been infected with cold recently, and all the medicines in the drug stores have been sold out."
"Speaking of this, I have also heard rumors that this is a warning from the heavens for His Majesty's disgraceful means of ascending to power."
"Bah, how kind is our Majesty? Maybe someone poisoned us. The plague a few years ago was not thanks to His Majesty and the Bai family that we were able to save so many people."
"Yes, I heard that the old emperor had ordered the people to be sealed and burned to death."
"Everyone, please give way. Don't scare the horses. This is the Bai family's motorcade!"
Recognizing that it was the Bai family's convoy escorting medicine, the people's attitude was not to mention how good they were. They gave in one after another and helped the officers and soldiers maintain order.
The three siblings in the carriage naturally saw this scene.
Bai Chaolu said proudly: "Look, even everyone in the capital admires our father."
"That's right, our father is a well-known good man in Ningguo!"
"Sisters, we have agreed that you are not allowed to fight in the street or make trouble. We will go home after playing for a few days."
Bai Qingyan also had a headache looking at the two running away sisters.
Why did he talk less since he was a child?
That's because I was annoyed by my sisters.
When they were young, the two sisters seemed to be harmonious on the surface, but in fact they had a huge quarrel behind the adults' backs.
For example, when it comes to clothes, Sanniang likes to dress her eldest sister in pink, saying she is delicate.
The second mother-in-law likes to dress the second sister in tender green, which she also calls delicate.
The two of them quarreled many times over whether it should be pink and tender or green and tender.
And he is the one who is caught in the middle and makes judgments.
I don't want to offend any of my sisters, so I can only choose to say that everything is fine.
But they insist that he tell them where? What if I have to choose a color?
He would just shut up and close his eyes and act like a fool.
I didn't expect this trick to be quite effective.
They continued to quarrel on their own, and did not force him to explain why.
After learning from him, he acted like a fool whenever they quarreled. Anyway, after a while, they would be so good that they no longer needed their brother.
Usually she would put him away on the grounds that he was a man and could not get involved in girls' conversations, and then sneak out to play.
Only when there is a quarrel that needs to be resolved, do I remember that they actually have a younger brother...
Nowadays, the opinions on calling him Menghulu are quite unified.
When she heard his instructions, she waved her hands in disgust, "I know, I know, you've said it so many times along the way."
"That's right, brother, if you are so verbose and don't please women, you have to change it." Bai Chunyu suggested seriously.
Bai Qingyan......
Isn’t it time that you dislike me for talking less?
He didn't want to be nagging. Aren't he afraid that something would happen to these two fearless sisters, and that his parents would take care of them when they got home?
He took a deep breath and said: "Eldest sister, second sister, brother is really not joking with you, the capital is different from our town.
No one knows that you are the daughter of the Bai family, and no one will be kind to you.
Of course, it's best not to let anyone know, otherwise a lot of people will want to use you to threaten dad. "
"I understand, from now on, my name is Zhao Lulu!"
"Then my name is Zhang Miaomiao?"
"I think it works. From the sound of it, we are sisters."
Bai Qingyan had no choice but to say, "Sisters, please take me with you when you go out. Even if you don't take me, you must take grapes and plums with you."
Putao and Meizi were bought into the Bai family when they were young. They waited on them and studied and learned martial arts with them.
Their martial arts skills are no worse than those of their siblings.
Although she is a maid, she has not suffered much, and she is even more affectionate with sisters Bai Chaolu.
"I know, I know, it's so fun, we must bring grapes and plums. Brother, please don't go, just go to work."
"That's right, you go and hang out with those talented people in the capital, don't follow your sisters."
………
When they arrived at the inn, as soon as they got off the carriage, Bai Chaolu took Bai Chunyu and ran away. Grape and Meizi quickly followed.
Bai Qingyan motioned to the person secretly protecting them to follow him.
Then it started getting busy.
This is the first time he has come to Beijing alone to hand over the job. In the past, his father would come alone or take him with him.
Therefore, he must strive for excellence and pay close attention to every step of the procedure.
After all, there are indeed many people staring at their Bai family, just waiting for them to make mistakes.
The Bai family used to be jealous, but now with the support of the new emperor, it is even more jealous.
The imperial doctor and the people from the Astragalus Pharmacy came to test all the medicines in person, and then they repackaged them. Some of them were transported to the palace, and some were taken away by the Astragalus Pharmacy.
The capital is the headquarters of Astragalus Medicine Store.
The shopkeeper here is not the one from their town, but a young man.
I heard that he was also an imperial doctor before, and was transferred out after the new emperor ascended the throne.
In order to prevent a long night and many dreams, I rested only after handing over the goods.
It took a long time just to inspect the goods. After they were taken away, the lanterns in front of the shops on the street were being lit one after another.
The Bai Chaolu sisters have not been seen yet.
"Ladies, tell me when you get back. I'm going to take a rest first." Bai Qingyan rubbed his brows tiredly.
"I obey my orders."
The two sisters who were mentioned at this moment were watching the competition on the street.
The prize is one hundred taels of silver.
The people below kept shouting: "Okay, okay!"
"This young man in black is pretty good. I guess these one hundred taels belong to him."
"That's not necessarily the case. There are still many people in the audience who haven't gone up yet."
Bang~~
The young man in black kicked the young man in gray off the ring, handed over his hands and said coldly: "I accept."
Bai Chunyu curled her lips and said, "Sister, people from this capital are rich. A person in the three-legged cat kung fu arena can earn a hundred taels."
Bai Chaolu also agreed, "Well, in our town, one hundred taels can last a family for ten years."
"Sister, how about we go up there and make money?"
Although the Bai family is rich, and Yunfei has never treated his siblings badly when it comes to money, they never spend lavishly.
And because I am familiar with the people around me, I know that money is hard to come by.
No wonder I was moved after seeing these one hundred taels.
