Jia Zheng was very pleased with Jia Huan's words!
If Jia Huan can really pass the Jinshi examination, it will definitely be a great blessing for the declining Jia family!
It is estimated that by then, those outside will no longer dare to underestimate their Jia family.
So Jia Zheng said happily:
"Okay, okay!"
"As a father, I will wait for your good news!"
So Jia Huan and Jia Zheng chatted for a few words and then returned to their houses.
In fact, everything was packed yesterday, during which Jia Huan went to Lin Daiyu to say goodbye to her.
In addition, he went to find Jia Lian and his wife and asked them to take more care of their aunt while they were away, so as not to let her be bullied.
Jia Huan knew his mother's temper, and most people really couldn't bully her.
After all, she is a very fierce person. Except for a few people such as Wang Xifeng and Ping'er, most people in the house really can't control her.
After hearing what Jia Huan said, Jia Lian and his wife naturally promised that they would help take care of Aunt Zhao.
After all, Jia Huan is obviously getting up now. Although Wang Xifeng and Jia Lian will not fawn over him, they will naturally not miss the opportunity to make friends with Jia Huan!
After saying goodbye to Jia Lian and his wife, Jia Huan and Aunt Zhao left the Jia Mansion together.
The two of them left Jia's Mansion through the corner gate. At this time, a black carriage was already parked at the door of Jia's Mansion!
Jia Huan’s uncle, Zhao Guoji, was waiting next to the carriage.
When Zhao Guoji saw Jia Huan and his son coming out, he warmly greeted them. After helping them into the carriage, the carriage started driving straight away.
Originally Jia Huan did not want Aunt Zhao to give it to him, but Aunt Zhao was worried about Jia Huan and still wanted to give it to him out of the city.
Jia Huan can understand this!
Unlike today, people in ancient times often traveled far away, especially children like Jia Huan. It is understandable that Aunt Zhao is worried!
So along the way, Aunt Zhao did not forget to tell Jia Huan what to pay attention to when eating and dressing!
Jia Huan also nodded to show that he remembered!
Soon, Jia Huan’s carriage left Yongding Gate and headed straight for the Yongding River outside the gate. At the Yongding River Pier, the Xue family’s merchant ship had been waiting for a long time!
This time Jia Huan’s trip to Yangzhou was arranged by Jia Zheng.
He relied on the Xue family's connections and asked Jia Huan to follow the Xue family's merchant ship all the way south and take the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal. It would take about half a month to reach Yangzhou.
When Jia Huan and others arrived at the Yongding River Pier, the pier was crowded with people!
Aunt Zhao could no longer move on, so she explained to Jia Huan in the carAfter a few sounds, Jia Huan was let off the carriage.
At this time, Zhao Guoji had already directed the two men at the dock to carry Jia Huan's box onto the Xue family's ship.
After Jia Huan got out of the car, he glanced at the bustling dock, turned around and said to Aunt Zhao who stuck her head out of the carriage:
"Mom, go back!"
p>
"It's weird here at the pier, you should go back early!"
"I will take care of myself. If not, will my uncle still take care of me?"
Hearing what Jia Huan said, Aunt Zhao could only let go of her worries. It wasn't until she saw Jia Huan and Zhao Guoji disappearing in front of her eyes that she ordered the groom to drive back!
Jia Huan and Zhao Guoji came to the edge of the pier together. Not long after they appeared at the pier, they saw a middle-aged man in his thirties trotting over.
He ran to Jia Huan, rested for more than ten seconds to let his breath calm down, and then he said:
"Is this Master Jia Huan of Jia Mansion? ?"
"I am Wang Fugui, the manager of the Xue family's merchant ship!"
"My boss asked me to wait for the third master here today!"
" I didn’t expect the third master to come earlier than the agreed time!”
Upon hearing that the other party was the manager of the Xue family, Jia Huan said with a smile:
This chapter is not finished yet, click on the next one! Page continue reading.
"I am Jia Huan!"
"In the next period of time, I will trouble Shopkeeper Wang!"
Wang Fugui heard that Jia Huan was really The person he wanted to wait for was the person he wanted to wait for, but he knew that this was the young master of the Jia family, and he was someone he couldn't afford to offend.
So he immediately said respectfully:
"That's really great!"
"Master Huan, let's go!"
"The ship will leave soon!"
After that, shopkeeper Wang ordered the two guys who came behind him to pick up Jia Huan's box and boarded a three-story merchant ship docked at the dock. .
When Jia Huan saw this merchant ship, he couldn't help but sigh, the Xue family's business is really big!
Otherwise there would not be such a large merchant ship.
However, Jia Huan doesn’t think too much about the Xue family’s money. After all, it has nothing to do with him!
The Xue family treated Jia Huan quite favorably, and specially arranged a room for him on the third floor of the ship. As for Zhao Guoji, he could only sleep in the Datong bunk with the crew on the ship.
In this way, Jia Huan took the Xue family's merchant ship, passed through Tongzhou, entered Tianjin Port, and then took the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal.
After walking for more than half a month, he finally arrived in Yangzhou City.
When I first heard that it was by boat, I was quite excited to take the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal.
After all, in the previous lifeAlthough Jia Huan has taken a boat before, he has never taken such a long-distance boat trip from Beijing to Yangzhou.
But after the initial excitement, Jia Huan also felt that taking a boat was nothing. The scenery was the same every day, so he didn't pay much attention to it.
In addition, Jia Huan later had some symptoms of seasickness. Fortunately, he was treated in time and it was not too serious!
But in the next few days, Jia Huan lay in bed almost every day and didn't think about it much.
It has only been in the past two days that his health has gotten better. Now that he has finally arrived in Yangzhou, Jia Huan is finally relieved that he no longer has to take the boat.
After the merchant ship approached the dock, Jia Huan asked Shopkeeper Wang to put down his luggage.
Then he was going to find someone to ask about the residence of Lin Ruhai's family.
But just when Jia Huan was looking around on the dock and was about to find someone to ask for directions, he saw ahead of him Not far away, a young man dressed as a servant rushed towards him.
The boy rushed to Jia Huan, took a few deep breaths to calm down, then looked at Jia Huan and asked:
"Are you from Jingcheng?" Jia Huan and Jia Sanye from the Duke's Mansion?"
Jia Huan was surprised to see that the other party knew him, and asked:
"What, do you know me? ?"
"Also, how did you know that I arrived in Yangzhou today?"
After hearing Jia Huan's affirmative reply, the young man nodded and said:
"It's really Mr. Jia!"
"As for why we knew Mr. Jia was back, it's actually very simple, because the master asked us to come to the dock to keep an eye on him these days."
< p> "If you see the Xue family's merchant ship, Jia Huan and Mr. Jia San, you must be on it."Hearing the boy's words, Jia Huan suddenly realized that this was what happened!
So Jia Huan, under the arrangement of the servant, took a carriage all the way to Lin Ruhai's mansion.
When Jia Huan arrived at Lin Ruhai's mansion, she was greeted by a woman surnamed Li.
The person who came here was in her twenties and under thirty, and she was Lin Ruhai’s concubine. She had the final say on everything in the Lin Mansion’s backyard!
Because Lin Ruhai has not yet paid his dues, he cannot see Jia Huan.
But Jia Huan is not in a hurry. Anyway, he has arrived at Lin Ruhai's house now and can see him at any time!
