Chapter 247: Riding the Wind and Crane, and Going to the South of the Yangtze River
"Brother Yu, I will leave Yu'er to you for the time being~"
"Uncle, don't worry. I just went to see my aunt. She will be back soon!"
In the thirteenth year of Mingkang, on the third day of the first lunar month, a crane quietly left Beijing.
Above the nine heavens, cranes roar in the sky.
There was a little girl of thirteen or fourteen years old, sitting on the back of the crane. At this time, she was leaning tightly in the arms of the boy behind her, and her small hands were still holding on to the boy's clothes.
The wind howled by, and the special note of howling was echoing in my ears.
"Don't you want to see it??"
The young man behind him looked at the unchanged scene in front of him and said softly.
The little girl in front seemed not to have expected this scene. She left the ground and lost that down-to-earth feeling. This made her uncontrollably nervous, and she was so nervous that she still didn't dare to do it until now.
open one's eyes.
"Ah~"
Suddenly, the little girl screamed. She felt her body suddenly light up, as if she had left the crane's back, and she was suddenly frightened.
She opened her eyes subconsciously, and then found that she had not left, but the young man behind her had picked her up, which gave her the illusion.
The little girl was ready to fight, but when she saw the young man pouting at her, gesturing forward, the next moment, a picture that she could not forget for a long time unfolded before her eyes.
The mountains, rivers and rivers are like paintings left on the canvas. Colorful clouds gather and disperse, fluttering like a fairyland. Everything on the ground looks like a villain at this moment. The New Year has not completely dispersed yet. Looking from above,
The red color is a true portrayal of thousands of households always replacing old talismans with new peaches.
Looking at the little girl who suddenly became quiet, the young man smiled softly and slowly put her back on the crane's back.
"Yeah~"
Seemingly disturbed by the boy's movements, the little girl slowly came to her senses and exclaimed.
"Brother Qiu~~"
Now she seemed to have guessed what happened before, and couldn't help complaining.
The two people were none other than Jia Yu and Lin Daiyu. Jia Qi remembered what Zijuan had said before, saying that Daiyu missed her mother very much, so after thinking about it again and again, Jia Qiu went to see Lin Ruhai.
In less than half a day, the news about him and Daiyu's marriage proposal spread throughout the streets and alleys in the capital, and it seemed to be getting worse. Jia Yu also wanted to get out of the way quickly, so he took this action.
Of course, being able to come out this time is thanks to Lin Ruhai's open-mindedness. If it had been anyone else, there would have been no chance at all. How could he have let his girl go out like that! Fortunately, Jia Yu could go smoothly with two basic things: saving lives and negotiating a marriage.
Take people away.
"Did Xiangling ride on the crane the last time he went to Jinling??"
Hearing Daiyu's words, Jia Yu was slightly startled. He had to say that he really didn't understand what this girl was thinking. After seeing the beautiful scenery, Sister Lin shouldn't be intoxicated and unable to extricate herself, and then she would be sad for spring and autumn.
Really? Why are you asking about this suddenly?
But since Daiyu asked this, Jia Yu thought for a while and replied: "Guess~~"
When Daiyu heard this answer, she curled her lips and said, "I don't want to guess, I want you to tell me~"
In fact, Daiyu already knew that the last time Jia Yu took Xiang Ling back to Jinling to find relatives, he probably took the crane. Otherwise, it would be impossible to reach Jinling in a short period of time. The distance there from the capital was different from what they went to this time.
Suzhou is about the same distance!
Jia Yu laughed twice and held Daiyu tightly in his arms, "Sister, do you think so or not?"
Daiyu's heart moved slightly when she heard this. She knew Xiangling's life experience. Not to mention Jia Qiu, she felt a little worried when she heard it. If she thought about it this way, it was nothing. It was just that her brother Qiu was really hateful.
, and threw this question to herself, how should she answer it.
If he said yes, he would just say that he had guessed it. If he said no, at that time, if he said that he was cold-hearted, how would he refute it? This was the second time she faced Jia Yu alone, and she suddenly
When I found this ball brother, I
Even a verbal confrontation is not easy!
When Jia Qi saw that Daiyu didn't speak, she didn't continue to drag her. Instead, she said softly, "Hong'er was also asked to carry her there, but hers is Xiaohong, and this one is Dahong!"
When Daiyu heard this, she seemed to understand the implication of Jia Yu's words, and felt ashamed in her heart. What Xiaohong Dahong said, in her understanding, didn't she just say that she would be his eldest wife?
Well, the principal wife.
When she thought of this, she suddenly became a little uncomfortable. The words of this brother Qiu always scratched her own itch, and the trace of sourness that had arisen in her suddenly disappeared.
"Sister Cai Luan is right, you are a bad guy~"
Hearing Daiyu's words, Jia Qiu couldn't help but shrugged and smiled helplessly. How could a good brother Qiu become a bad guy after flying on a crane?
However, Daiyu would not explain why this happened, so she tried to look around again. With Jia Qi here, she did not worry about her own safety, and she became more and more courageous, and soon she dared to stick out her little head.
, look here, look there, then pointed to a tower and a loft, and started chatting with Jia Qi.
When Jia Qi saw the little girl's appearance, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart. If she were to rank the speed at which she was exposed to new things, apart from Cai Luan, who was heartless, this little girl would come next.
"Flying to the Qianxun Pagoda on the mountain, I heard the rooster crow and watched the sun rise. I was not afraid of the clouds covering my eyes, just because I was at the top~"
"At first I thought Wang Banshan was just joking! I didn't expect it to be true. The floating clouds can only block half of the tall towers on the mountain. When we reach the top, there are no clouds at all. No wonder he says he is not afraid.
The floating clouds cover my eyes, but it seems that this is happening!"
Hearing this, Jia Qi said with a smile: "That's not what Wang Jiefu said!!"
When Daiyu heard this, she couldn't help but turned around and looked at Jia Qi. She looked at him with a pair of affectionate eyes. Jia Qi shook her head. He didn't believe that Daiyu didn't know what the poem was about, but seeing her
He was in a good mood and was willing to play with her. After all, his main purpose today was to relax with her. It was their first date! However, there is no word date in this era, but the original meaning is the same.
"If you want to explain this poem clearly, you have to take a look at Wang Anshi. He was from the Northern Song Dynasty. He was not only a poet, but also a prime minister. He advocated reform to become stronger. The emperor at that time used him several times.
, and was ostracized, and later generations also gave him mixed reviews!"
"Then what does Brother Qiu think of him??"
Daiyu said with a smile.
Jia Yu thought for a while and said, "The advantages should outweigh the disadvantages. I don't know much about other things, but one of his reforms is more vivid in my memory. It's called the Qingmiao Law. This thing outlawed usury, which is what we call it now."
Usury money, this is a far-reaching impact! However, the kings of later generations don’t seem to pay much attention to these things. In today’s Dakang, this kind of thing happens in many places!”
"Usury money??"
Daiyu frowned slightly, she seemed to have seen or heard this thing somewhere, but the impression was not that deep.
A strange look flashed in Jia Yu's eyes. Speaking of loan sharks, he had to talk about Sister Feng. Although he had mentioned it to Jia She and Jia Lian before, he still had no idea whether the other party had properly handled this matter.
It's hard to say, or whether Sister Feng will do it secretly in private, that's all uncertain.
Then Jia Yu opened his mouth and explained, "An Zhao folk saying has a daily interest rate of three percent on usury money. Compound interest is calculated three hundred and sixty-five days a year, and the annual interest rate is two hundred. It is a kind of shady business where money makes money. It is considered
A business that harms moral integrity is not a good thing! Let’s just talk about Rongguo Gongfu, maybe someone is doing it~”
Hearing Jia Yu's words, Dai Yu seemed not to believe it. After all, Jia Mu's teaching was that a house with good deeds must have Yu Qing. She usually treated some servants very tolerantly, otherwise the house would not have raised those people with high ambitions and low abilities.
Servant, just say that once when offering incense, Jia Mu met a Taoist boy who was cutting candle flowers, and asked Jia Zhen not to scare him, but to give the Taoist boy some money to buy steamed buns to eat!
Jia Yu did not explain these things. After all, does Sister Feng still do this?
Making a living is really not necessarily the case! If she says it to herself and Sister Feng stops doing it, then she will be criticized for gossiping behind her back.
Then Jia Yu continued, "Okay, let's not talk about this for now. Let's talk about Wang Anshi. The first two sentences of his poem use the height of the flying tower to say that he has a high footing, a far-sighted vision, and a sense of reality and reality.
He wrote about the glorious scene of the rising sun seen from the tower. At that time, he was full of energy, ambitious for reform, and full of confidence in the future. Facing the weak Northern Song Dynasty at that time, his courage was really rare. He
In fact, his reform was successful in the end. Although many people gave him the title of a single man, his reform would at least save the Northern Song Dynasty for fifty years!! "
When Daiyu heard this, she nodded thoughtfully. She had read this poem, but she didn't delve too much into its deep meaning. Some of what Jia Yu said was unknown to her, like
It was Qingmiaofa, usury, and her evaluation of Wang Banshan. Sure enough, she had thought well before. Jia Yu really had something in his belly, and he was not a reckless man!
"Then the Northern Song Dynasty perished in the end!!"
After a while, Daiyu said softly again.
Jia Yu looked ahead. The crane beneath him was still flying, fluttering its wings. He didn't know what to say about the change of dynasties.
After thinking about it, he said, "The general trend of the world is that if it divides for a long time, it will unite, and if it unites for a long time, it will unite. This has been like this since ancient times. This is the way of heaven!"
When Daiyu heard this, her eyes suddenly lit up. She chewed on what Jia Yu said carefully, and the more she tasted it, the more interesting it became.
