In the past few days, the nobles have been gathering people and tools everywhere to send to Tianjin. The team just gathered together to prepare for departure today, so the city gate seemed particularly crowded! There are craftsmen and their relatives everywhere here, and there are even many soldiers from the Fifth Army Camp!
These soldiers are often driven by their officers to do chores, so there are many people who know various crafts! Naturally, the nobles would not give up these available people, so they sent them all over! Because they were in such a hurry, some soldiers didn't even take off their fat jackets, and just openly mingled among the ranks and chatted with other craftsmen!
In desperation, the three women could only chat and wait. After waiting for two full moments, their carriage slowly started to move.
After leaving the city gate and onto the official road, their convoy moved much faster. Although the people in this convoy were all female relatives, they all traveled with carriages, and the four bodyguards also rode horses and could keep up with the speed of the carriage, so they quickly got rid of the crowd.
The carriage traveled until noon and passed a small village. The official road winds past this small village. Moreover, there are many stores here and there are wells on the roadside. It is a popular place for business travelers to stay. The three women decided to rest here for a while.
As a result, as soon as they were drinking tea and eating some snacks in the tea shed, a large group of people came rolling in! Among them were people on foot and on horseback, as well as a large number of chariots and horses, and a large number of people. As soon as the three girls saw it, they hurriedly ordered people to leave the tea shed and returned to the carriage, because they knew by looking at the various flags that it was the nobles from the brigade passing by.
The three women sat in the carriage and looked out the window to see which nobles were traveling. They have been in the capital for a long time and are very familiar with the honorary banners. They can tell which family they belong to at a glance. Then he couldn't help but comment.
Kang Miao looked at the team from a distance and said: "Among the nobles today, the only one with such vigor is probably Uncle Wu Ning! Look at him walking at the front with his men. Not only is he riding a horse, but the soldiers walking behind are also walking at the same pace. They are neat and powerful, showing that they are running the army rigorously!"
Xie Jiaoniang also said: "So this is the great hero who can defeat the pirates!"
The reputation of Liu Haojia has already spread among the capital, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a young hero! He rejuvenated his family, this smallpox, and his deeds to pacify the pirates can be said to be very popular! Especially at such a young age, he carries the title of earl on his back, is also the Commander-in-Chief of the Navy, and has become a son-in-law in the eyes of the girls in the capital!
Another reason why Kang Miao can comment like this is that safflower also needs green leaves! And the nobles behind Liu Haojia's team are naturally the best green leaves!
The Ming Dynasty had been at peace for more than a hundred years, and the nobles had the privilege of living with the country. Naturally, they had no motivation to move forward, so they became more and more drunk and dreamy! As a result, many people with noble backgrounds no longer ride horses when going out, but instead ride in cars or sedans!
Now this large group of nobles were following Liu Haojia in carriages. Except for some servants in their team who were still riding horses, the others took the carriages if they could. Those who couldn't get on the carriages gathered together, and they were so dejected that they couldn't even walk. together!
And Liu Haojia was riding a horse at the front with his chest raised and his head raised, followed by four rows of sixteen servants on horseback, and then a group of infantrymen carrying muskets and walking firm and powerful steps. It can be said that they are majestic and everyone is like a dragon! Compared with those nobles, they are naturally as judged as clouds and mud!
While the three women were commenting, Liu Haojia raised his hand to signal the entire team to stop. It seems that they are also preparing to make a breakthrough here.
After everyone dismounted, the difference between him and the nobles became even more obvious! The first thing he did after dismounting was to feed and drink water for the horse, and he did this work himself! As a military general, war horses are his second life, and he must treat them well, so Liu Haojia does this kind of thing himself whenever he has the opportunity.
After discovering that the convoy had stopped, the nobles behind him were lazily helped out of the car one by one and twisted their bodies into various strange postures. They did not look like their ancestors were brave at all!
When the three girls saw this scene, they naturally made another judgment! While talking, Tan Cuiying suddenly widened her eyes and said, "Why don't we go and see Uncle Wu Ning!"
As soon as these words came out, Kang Miao and the others were shocked! Kang Miao said: "Don't talk nonsense! Who are we?"
How can I ask for an audience with Uncle Wu Ning? "
Although Xie Jiaoniang looked yearning, she nodded in agreement. But Tan Cuiying didn't think so. She said with shining eyes: "Think about it, we were originally going to visit Miss Zhang this time, so when we met Uncle Wu Ning on the way, we should have said a few words! And we I also have Mrs. Gu Ningbo’s name card in my hand, so it wouldn’t be rude to hand it over!”
Kang Miao's eyes lit up after hearing this, and she said, "Yes, yes! If I can get in touch with Uncle Wu Ning in advance, there may be extra benefits! It's just that I'm a little scared!"
Tan Cuiying waved her handkerchief and said, "What are you afraid of? We are going to Tianjin this time to help with his business. There is nothing to be afraid of!" Kanshu La
Xie Jiaoniang giggled beside her and said, "You are quite fierce in your mouth, but don't use a vibrato when you speak!"
Before she finished speaking, Kang Miao burst into laughter! Tan Cuiying was so angry that she grabbed Xie Jiaoniang and punched her twice, and then said angrily: "Whether you want to go or not, I will go myself!"
How could Kang Miao let her act alone? Kang Miao immediately urged Xiaozhu to tidy up her clothes, and accompanied Tan Cuiying, who was wearing a curtain and hat, to walk towards Liu Haojia. As a result, as soon as the two of them approached, a servant came up to them and said, "Who are you? What are you doing?"
Tan Cuiying took a step forward and said: "The Nu family is from the capital, and they are visiting Miss Zhang from Tianjin. I met Uncle Wu Ning on the way to say hello and see if he can give us a ride? After all, we are all women, and we are going out. It’s a lot of inconvenience. If I could follow Uncle Wu Ning to Tianjin, I wouldn’t have to worry about the safety of the journey!”
After saying that, she took out Mother Liu's name card and handed it over. As soon as the servant saw the caravan pattern of the famous calligraphy, he knew that his own famous calligraphy was at this time, so he naturally did not dare to neglect it and hurriedly sent it to Liu Haojia. When Liu Haojia received the report, he recognized his mother's name post and thought it was strange, so he led people to walk towards the place where the three girls were.
In fact, the name post is the predecessor of the business card. It first appeared in the Spring and Autumn Period, especially after Qin Shihuang unified China and unified the national script and divided the princes and kings. At that time, Xianyang became the center of China. In order to close the relationship with the court ministers, it was inevitable for officials from all over the country to have frequent contact with each other, so the early name of the business card - Ye began to appear.
