Xianyu Infrastructure, I have a lot of troops in my hands
Chapter 137 Youshi
They dare not collect more, otherwise why would they build a separate guard post and use money poles to prevent them from taking bribes?
Seeing the listless look of the clerk who collected the money, the young man who had just spoken coughed lightly and said casually: "I've already said that this city gate is the face of our Que County. We should serve with a smile. How come it looks no different from before!"
Upon hearing this, the people who collected the money immediately sat up straight and looked at the young man with a helpless look on their faces: "Mr. Xie, please don't make fun of us." They were really afraid of being punished for this matter in the past few days.
The boy shrugged: "I just heard it," he said innocently.
The young man in the carriage lowered the curtain with a look of surprise on his face. The waiter held the copper coins he had brought back and was a little bit unbelievable that there were actually guards who would not accept bribes.
He looked carefully at the young man from the Xie family, who was feared by the guards. The villagers' attitude towards the young man was obviously different.
Some were delivering vegetables, some were stuffing eggs, some were introducing their daughters. It was even busier than a vegetable market, and even the guards in the sentry box joined in the fun and shouted a few words.
When the young man got out, he glared at the clerk who had exposed his identity, but in return he only received a scoundrel's laughter.
He hurried forward, and after a few steps, a banknote fell out of the bag behind him. This scene was seen by the waiter who was riding slowly behind him.
"Young man in front! Wait a moment!"
The waiter yelled, "You dropped something!"
"What? Mine?" The young man turned around and saw the coupon in the waiter's hand. He was startled and touched the bag behind him, then hurried back.
He took the booklet and bowed to say thank you: "Thank you, uncle!"
The waiter who was driving the carriage smiled more sincerely: "I wonder what's the matter, young man? Why are you so anxious?"
"I have to rush to class. I'm afraid I'll be late!"
At this time, the curtain of the carriage opened, and a clear voice sounded, "May I know your name, sir?"
The young man who was speaking was handsome and gentle, with a friendly smile. He was wearing a blue satin robe and sitting in a luxurious carriage. He was like a blue lotus in the water, which made people happy to see him.
"Xie Qiyan, nice to meet you, young master!" Xie Qiyan was stunned for a moment by the visitor, and then bowed to greet him.
"Thank you, sir. I'm You Chun and I live in Huainanfang." The young man smiled slightly.
"Young Master You?" Xie Qiyan's eyes lit up as if he had thought of something.
"If you don't mind, I can give Xie Lang a ride." You Chun invited.
Xie Qiyan just wanted to take a closer look at the brother of the lady from the You family, so he readily agreed.
A few days ago, I heard that the lady had accepted a new vassal, who was none other than Mrs. You, the owner of the silver shop on West Street. That Miss You was quite talented and learned.
In less than three days, he passed the examination of elementary mathematics and was promoted by the queen as an exception to be allowed to follow the female class of Shangshu Zitang.
In the past few days, he has been outstanding in every aspect of the female monarch class, surpassing all the serious brothers and sisters.
He wanted to see what was so special about the capable You family.
When the carriage stopped in front of the Xie family, Xie Qiyan got off happily and came to his senses: "Hey? That's not right, what was I going to ask just now?"
In the departing carriage, the waiter glanced at the young man from the Xie family who was standing at the door. He could not help laughing and said, "The master's letter is talking about the second branch of the Xie family."
"My sister is studying in the Xie family!" You Chun said affirmatively, "Look at the character of this Xie family member, it is rare to find such a pure character!"
The carriage sped up, and the two people on board felt a lot more relieved.
They have traveled far and wide and have met all kinds of young men from wealthy families. It is rare to see someone who can get along well with the villagers and be so polite to the coachmen.
Even though Xie Qiyan was wearing linen cloth, he had a rosy complexion and a strong body, which showed that although his family conditions were not good, the food in the clan was good.
Looking at his face, his eyes are clear and upright. He does not hide the fact that he is a illegitimate child of a branch of the family. It seems that this is not a big deal. He does not have the submissive and depressed air of a branch of aristocratic family.
Xie Qiyan: Gloomy? Sorry, my sister advocates revenge on the spot.
You Chun was thinking that his sister's previous marriage could be annulled, but he had no idea that You Luan was now thriving in Shuzitang.
When You Chun returned home, he heard his father's voice outside the main hall: "Luan'er! Although you don't like the young master of the Qi family, you can't let others put him in a sack."
You Chun:.......So this marriage is really off the table?
Mr. You's voice was sincere and worried, and his face was full of sorrow.
Although Qi Dalang never took Youshi seriously, he had gotten used to it as merchants had always been lowly.
He asked for nothing else but that Qi Dalang would be nicer to his daughter for the sake of money.
However, since his daughter followed the Xie family's lady, her temperament seemed to have changed drastically, no longer as quiet and gentle as before. In the past few days, she even sneaked into the Xie family school, which made him very anxious.
"Luan'er, the clan has always looked down on us, so you should not..." Having been deceived, he was extremely happy when he first heard that the second branch of the Xie family was willing to be the support of the You family, but he was well aware of the arrogance of the noble clans.
During these days, apart from sending their daughter to school, the Xie family did not ask for money, land or other valuables.
This made him feel uneasy, thinking that this might be a joke from the Lady of the Xie Family and should not be taken seriously. When a noble family accepts merchants as vassals, it is inevitable that they will accept money and goods.
Xie Xian pondered over the cooperation charter:?
"Father, I didn't order the sacks to be put on," You Luan argued righteously.
The maid who was following beside her echoed: "This is not what the lady said, it was..." Everyone exchanged glances, and they understood in their hearts.
It turned out to be the work of the daughter of the Xie family. You Chun, who was standing outside the door, had a strange look on his face.
In the car, he heard Xie Qiyan's various compliments about his second sister, especially about her martial arts, which he regarded as exaggerations. He did not expect to be slapped in the face by his own sister before he even entered the door.
Father You smiled bitterly. Alas! Since the return of the Xie family's daughter a year ago, the originally weak girls in the back house in Que County have straightened their backs.
Now that his daughter has married Xie Xian, she will no longer listen to her father's sincere words.
He lamented in his heart, "Luan'er, the lady of the Xie family may be able to help you temporarily, but she can't help you for a lifetime." He looked anxious.
"After getting married, you still have to look up to your husband's family. How can you develop such a willful personality? What will happen in the future?"
The old father's deep love for his daughter made You Luan silent, but she was unwilling to give in, after seeing Xie Xian's life as the master of the family with her own abilities.
She couldn't even imagine going back to the past and being trapped in the backyard.
“Let’s go with my sister!” Seeing the two of them in a stalemate, You Chun pushed the door open.
The two people in the room were extremely surprised.
"Brother is back!" You Luan rushed to her brother's side like a young swallow returning to its nest.
She hugged You Chun's arm and said in a tender voice, "Brother, why did you come back just now? I sent someone to send you a letter a few days ago."
