Chapter 134 Encounter with Zhao Zhifeng
Chapter 134 Encounter with Zhao Zhifeng
The waiter was a little surprised.
The host actually gave the order to the servant alone.
Suppressing the thoughts in his mind, he retreated respectfully and went to the kitchen with the menu.
After the others left, Yang Lijun poured a cup of tea, took a sip, and said, "Do you feel it?"
She looked at Lao Wang and the others outside.
Huang Mulin and the others looked over together, with a thoughtful look on their faces.
After a while, Huang Haolin asked, "Aunt Yang, are people so different from each other outside?"
"Yes." Yang Lijun answered him without hesitation: "The bigger the place, the more important the rules and status are."
"But I don't like this."
Huang Mulin frowned.
However, she also knew that this bad habit could not be eliminated in ancient times.
“No power to change.”
Yang Lijun spoke lightly, but her words were very serious.
"I made a special trip to the capital this time, not only to buy cattle, but also to let you experience the different treatments brought by your status."
"In Qingfeng College in Bofeng County, many of the students there come from wealthy families or are descendants of officials. You must be careful with your behavior. Sometimes some natural behaviors may be seen as provocations by others."
"Of course, I'm not asking you to be afraid, nor am I asking you to please me. I just hope that you can adapt to the changes in the environment as quickly as possible."
"There is a way to deal with ghosts and gods."
"I see. Thank you, Aunt Yang."
The four sons of the Huang family responded obediently, and at the same time kept in mind what Yang Lijun taught them.
Huang Mulin also had some new experiences.
After a while, while waiting, Huang Mulin asked Yang Lijun: "Mom, will it be troublesome to buy a mountain?"
Before, their family had only bought wasteland. Even a few generations ago, no one had the financial resources to buy a mountain and occupy it as their own. The village chief, the old patriarch, and the elders had never seen it, so they had no idea.
"It's a bit more troublesome than buying land, but don't worry, Lao Wang can handle it."
"Uncle Wang really knows everything."
"Uncle Wang is my right-hand man."
Yang Lijun seldom calls him Uncle Wang in front of others, but she respects Old Wang very much in private.
"In the future, you should also train your own right-hand men, such as the Lin sisters."
Yang Lijun said: "Leave the business and daily life matters to them, and I will find someone else for you to take care of the rest."
Those two little girls are not suited to certain things.
"Thank you, mother."
Huang Mulin's eyes disappeared from laughing.
This is probably what it feels like to be cared for all the time.
"And you guys."
Yang Lijun turned to Huang Qilin and his brothers.
"If you want to study at Qingfeng College, I will bring the servants back to you. You need to adapt and get along with each other in advance and get to know each other better."
"Okay, Aunt Yang."
Except for Huang Jinlin, the other three nodded obediently.
"When we get back this time, I'll ask your foster father to teach you for a while longer so that you can get more stable studies. After the busy farming season, I'll arrange for you to go to Qingfeng College, okay?"
Yang Lijun thought about it and gave them a suggestion.
She turned to look at Huang Bo and He Hui Niang and asked silently.
"If they can keep up with their studies, we have no objection."
He Hui Niang said.
The children have grown up and will eventually leave home, and they are ready.
Besides, Bofeng County is not very far away, and I have a carriage at home, so I can visit them at any time.
At times like this, He Hui Niang was very glad that her family had money, which solved many of her troubles.
"Excuse me, Aunt Yang."
Seeing that his parents had no objection, Huang Qilin took the initiative to thank them.
The brothers study diligently every day just to seek security for their families and themselves. Naturally, they would not refuse any better choice now.
The family chatted about many topics and before they knew it, the food was served.
They stopped chatting and everyone picked up their chopsticks and started eating.
The chefs in the provincial capital are much better than those in towns and county towns.
Huang Jinlin pondered, simulated and guessed while eating, wanting to know how these dishes were cooked to achieve the desired taste, what seasonings were used and so on.
Cook's habits.
Huang Mulin also studied it secretly for a while. She could learn these dishes at any time, so she didn't go too deep into them.
Others just ate without caring.
Anyway, they are not the cooks, they are the ones who are responsible for eating and commenting.
Delicious, eat more.
After tasting the delicious food, except for Yang Lijun, Lao Wang and Yu Ze, almost everyone else went out with bulging bellies.
After eating too much, the only way to digest the food is to take a walk, so everyone went to stroll around the shop.
In Huang Mulin’s words: investigate the market.
Huang Mulin and Huang Haolin excitedly went from one store to another, then changed to another, and continued to the next, almost walking through several commercial streets.
Yang Lijun and others who were following behind were a little shocked.
Are these two little kids really capable of going shopping?
It was not until the end of the hour of Wei that Huang Mulin, tired from walking, said he wanted to find a place to rest.
They went to a nearby teahouse.
By coincidence, I met You Lan.
And there is Zhao Zhifeng.
They were just about to leave.
Zhao Zhifeng spotted Yang Lijun among the group of people at a glance.
He recognized Yang Lijun.
Although she has been away from Beijing for seven years, the couple Yu Zhenzhou and Yang Lijun left an extremely deep impression on people and are hard to forget.
"town......"
Just as he shouted out a word, Yang Lijun raised her eyebrows and looked at him. After just one glance, she swallowed the rest of the words.
You Lan also saw Lao Wang following behind Yang Lijun.
He didn't see the person in the car that day, but when he was walking behind Yang Lijun, he immediately realized that this was the "wife" he was talking about.
And Zhao Zhifeng’s condition...I guess he can’t be wrong.
The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo.
"lady?"
Old Wang asked.
Yang Lijun hesitated for a moment and said, "I want a private room."
He turned around and said to Zhao Zhifeng, "If you have time, let's go have some tea together."
"It is my pleasure."
Zhao Zhifeng bent his waist slightly.
The teahouse owner saw Zhao Zhifeng, who had already walked out, turned back and hurried forward to ask.
"Sir, is there anything left behind?"
"No, I met an old friend. Please take us to the private room."
"Yes, please follow me."
The shopkeeper took Yang Lijun and others to the private room. Yu Ze did not go upstairs, but sat down in the lobby where he could see the whole situation clearly. Fang Zheng followed him and ordered a pot of tea and a portion of melon seeds.
After serving the tea, the shopkeeper closed the door and left.
"Madam, I haven't seen you for many years, but you are still as charming as ever."
"Zhao Dushi is now the prefect of Zhao. Congratulations on your promotion."
When Yang Lijun left the capital, Zhao Zhifeng was not yet a clerk in the Censorate. Now that she could accurately describe his former position, he had to pay more attention to this wife of the Duke of Zhenguo whom he had not seen for many years.
He had heard a long time ago that Yu Zhenzhou and his wife had their own power, but no one had evidence, not even the emperor, and no matter how they tried, they could not find any flaws.
I'm afraid the truth is more terrifying than guessing.
Zhao Zhifeng suppressed his shock, smiled and said he didn't deserve it.
"Where are you going, ma'am?"
He asked, glancing at Huang Mulin and the others who were looking at him curiously.
"I just walked around a few streets with my family. I'm tired and want to take a break."
Then she introduced them to each other: "This is my adopted daughter Huang Mulin."
"These are my adopted daughter's relatives."
"This is Zhao Zhifeng, the new governor of Tianjing Prefecture."
Zhao Zhifeng was a little surprised. This relationship was a bit...shocking.
"Hello, Mr. Prefect."
Huang Mulin greeted sweetly.
"Hello... Missy."
For a moment I really didn't know how to address her.
"Master Prefect."
Huang Bo and others addressed him respectfully, and Prefect Zhao also responded to them.
"this......"
Yang Lijun looked at You Lan.
Zhao Zhifeng was so shocked that he forgot to introduce him.
You Lan was called by name and quickly introduced himself: "I am You Lan, the third son of the You family. Nice to meet the Madam, the eldest daughter, and everyone else."
"Oh, you are the old friend of Lao Wang."
"It's down."
"So what are you doing..."
Yang Lijun was a little curious.
"Brother You helped a lot in the last major case, and he also traveled to many places and learned a lot about their customs. I used this as an excuse to ask him out, firstly to thank him, and secondly to learn from him."
"Don't dare."
You Lan quickly took over the conversation.
"Good."
Yang Lijun nodded: "Walk more and see more, your horizons will be much broader."
"I'm here in the city to do some work and will be leaving in a few days. The city is lucky to have you. I hope you won't let the people here down."
