The fake daughter married into the mountains and had meat to eat every day during the famine

Song Yuntang thought about it and decided that having another cloth shop would be nice if he could have another source of income.

"There are many cloth shops in the Great Xia Dynasty, but few ready-made clothing shops. In my opinion, a cloth shop is not as good as a ready-made clothing shop. You can then create some special clothing styles and sell them for a higher profit."

Thinking of the handkerchief Song Yuntang had drawn for her before, Jiang Surao suddenly became interested.

"Tell me about it quickly."

"The clothes are divided into spring, summer, autumn and winter, and they are changed every season. The styles and colors are differentiated for each season, and my own characteristics are added. When the time comes, I will find some slim women to wear the clothes in the shop and display them in front of the shop..."

Song Yuntang spoke carefully and Jiang Surao listened attentively.

"Even if someone imitates us later, we are already ahead. We have already earned the first sum of money. From now on, we just need to win steadily."

Jiang Surao nodded and gave Song Yuntang a thumbs up.

"Tangtang, you are a business genius! When are you leaving for the capital? We'll go together then."

"After the confinement period, my family will hold a full-moon banquet. My second brother's wedding will be held shortly after the full-moon banquet. I will leave the next day after attending my second brother's wedding banquet. My husband has to rush to the capital to take up his post."

Jiang Surao looked at her with a distressed look on her face. "It's really hard for you to carry the child for such a long distance just over a month after giving birth."

Song Yuntang shook his head and said, "It's not so bad. It was almost August when we left for the capital, and we were heading north. The weather was neither too hot nor too cold, which was perfect for traveling."

Jiang Surao thought of something.

"Is Mr. Xu from your family scared by your disappearance this time? That's why he wants to take you and the child with him wherever he goes."

"That must be the reason." Song Yuntang pursed his lips, "It just so happens that I don't want to be separated from him again."

Looking at her expression, Jiang Surao smiled.

"As long as you're happy."

As she spoke, she took out a rectangular white jade tablet from her bosom.

The upper third of the Wu Shi Pai is carved with auspicious clouds, and the words "Haoting" are engraved on the side.

"I ordered two identical jade pendants. Linchuan is four months older than Haoting, so he will be the elder brother from now on. This is a meeting gift for my younger brother."

Seeing this, Song Yuntang looked at Jinshu beside him.

"Jinshu, go see if Hao Ting is awake. If he is, bring him here."

"Yes."

Jin Shu bowed and turned to go into Jiang's room.

After the child was brought to her, Jiang Surao loved him very much and said that the child was very cute. It was a pity that it was a boy. If it was a girl, she would wake up smiling in her dreams if she had a daughter-in-law.

.

Not long after Jiang Surao left, Xu Qingye came into the yard with several maids, old women and servants.

"I'm about to go to the capital, and I'm worried that the servants I buy there might be spies from Beppu, so I asked Guiping to pick a few from the pawnbrokers. They also need someone to take care of them on the way. Do you think they're suitable?"

Song Yuntang looked at these people. They had open expressions, humble brows and eyes, and judging from their faces, they all seemed to be in good health.

She smiled.

"Once it has passed your inspection, it is naturally safe."

The man smiled and said, "I'll trouble you, Tang'er, to give me a name."

Song Yuntang looked at the four servants, two old women, and two maids in front of him, and thought for a moment.

"The four of you are called Honeysuckle, Polygala, Maple, and Gentiana."

The four servants saluted.

"Yes, ma'am."

Song Yuntang looked at the two maids again and asked, "What are your names?"

"My surname is Li."

"My surname is Wang."

Song Yuntang nodded, "I won't give you any new names, Madams. I'll just use your surnames."

Two people are blessed.

"Yes."

"As for you two." Song Yuntang looked at the two maids, "Let's call them Zhiruo and Lanxin."

The two maids bowed.

"Zhiruo (Lan Xin) thanks Madam for the name."

This time, only their family of three went to the capital.

With these eight servants, plus Jinshu, Xia Ning, Guiping and the wet nurse and her husband bought from the pawnshop a few days ago, it should be more than enough.

When my parents-in-law move to Beijing in the future, we can buy a house when there are fewer people around.

Seeing that Song Yuntang had already chosen the names of several people, Xu Qingye instructed Jinshu to take them to arrange their respective affairs, and then handed the box in his hand to Song Yuntang.

"Wencheng said that General Shi has given him a heavy task recently, so he won't be coming back for now. He will come to the capital to find us after the military examination is over in October."

Song Yuntang nodded and took the box he handed over.

"Is this sent by Wencheng?"

Xu Qingye nodded, "General Shi threw it into the mountains every day. Maybe he dug it out from the mountains. He said it was old mountain ginseng and asked someone to send it to you to replenish your body. See if you can use it."

"You haven't eaten ginseng since you gave birth so recently." She said in a negotiating tone, "Why don't you take it back to the capital and give it to Master Tang? I haven't met Master Tang yet. It would be impolite if I didn't visit him when I get to the capital. After all, he's your teacher."

Xu Qingye nodded.

"Alright."

……

The child's full-month banquet was not a big one. Song Yuntang thought that since he had just experienced life and death, it would be enough for the villagers and a few relatives to come over for a meal, so he did not invite the ladies he knew in the county and provincial capital.

After Song Jinsheng's wedding banquet, Song Yuntang took his children and went to the capital with Xu Qingye.

On the day of departure, people from the Song and Xu families came to see him off.

Jiang was reluctant to leave her child behind, and only handed the child in her arms onto the carriage when it was about to depart.

"Be careful on the road, and remember to write home when you arrive. Once you're settled, your parents will come over in October with your grandparents and Wencheng for a reunion."

Song Yuntang lifted the curtain of the carriage.

"Don't worry, Mom. We will be careful. You and Dad must take good care of yourselves at home."

Jiang's eyes were red.

"Aye, we will."

After meeting the Xiao family's carriage on the road, the group headed into Beijing in a mighty procession.

Because we were traveling with children and servants, there were many people and a lot of stuff, so we stayed in inns along the way. Although the conditions were not as good as those of an inn, the most important thing was safety.

Fortunately, the children were young and slept most of the time on the road. In addition, Song Yuntang had taken precautions in advance and the medicines were well prepared, so they didn't suffer much on the road.

After ten days of stopping and walking, we finally arrived in the capital on the first day of August.

Xiao Yanzhou and Jiang Surao had never been to the capital before and had no place to stay, so they stayed in an inn first.

Xu Qingye took Song Yuntang to the courtyard he had rented before. He left in a hurry and had not vacated the courtyard. Now it was just the right place to stay as it was more convenient than an inn.

He rented a house in a three-story courtyard. He was not the only one living there. There were five side-by-side houses on the left side of the entrance, facing south and north, with poor lighting. Five scholars lived there.
