Chapter 288 Yang Santie is not short of money

What he can do for Dafang is very limited, he can only help as much as possible.

“Grandpa, don’t worry, my grandson will definitely do as he’s told.” Yang Erdan solemnly agreed.

After Old Man Yang and the others left, he took Ruizhi and Song Yi to Mapo.

Mapo Academy suddenly became famous because it won many talents in the last academy examination. Many students from other places even traveled thousands of miles to study. The academy could not accommodate so many students, so it expanded another hundred acres. This hundred acres of housing The house still uses adobe tiles, floor tiles, wall plaster from their workshop, and there are traces of his family everywhere.

All the previous stalls outside the academy were gone, replaced by a spacious street with shops on both sides. One of them is the study opened by Yang Santie - Qingfengzhai, which specializes in selling their rice paper, as well as Yang Santie's rice paper from Zhong Bohan. There are some pens, inkstones, and some manuscripts that people are looking for. The business is pretty good.

Yang Erdan stepped into Qingfengzhai, and the shopkeeper Lao He recognized him at a glance and hurriedly came forward to greet him, "Second Young Master, are you here to see the Third Young Master and the Fourth Young Master?"

Yang Erdan nodded slightly and looked at the gate of the academy, "When will the third and fourth brothers get off school?"

Lao He only glanced at it and then laughed and said: "Second Young Master also knows that the county examination is about to take place now. The Third Young Master and the Fourth Young Master have been detained by Mr. Ming during this period to make fuss. Even after school, you can't leave. If you have anything to ask for, They can go directly to the academy, or the younger one can run errands for you."

Yang Erdan waved his hand, "No need, you can continue working."

As soon as he finished speaking, three or four students entered the study together.

“Shopkeeper, bring us five rolls of rice paper, a copy of Mencius, and two pieces of fine wolf hair.”

Lao He immediately went to greet the guests.

Yang Erdan took a closer look and saw that these people were dressed luxuriously and spent a lot of money, but their accents were wrong. They should have come to study from other places. He didn't want to stay here and cause trouble. Just as he was about to step out, he heard the people behind him saying "Guangenhou" Something happened, and the steps under his feet stopped.

While Lao He was packing them, he asked curiously: "Sir, who are you talking about Guang Enhou?"

“Do you know Uncle Guang En?”

Lao He Nana nodded, thinking, isn't this their wife?

The other party said with admiration: "Uncle Guang En was posthumously granted the title of Guang En by the Emperor. Now he is the Marquis of Guang En. The news should have reached Fucheng by now and will soon reach Ping'an County."

Lao He was stunned, his voice rose several times, "Sir, are you telling the truth?"

Several people were puzzled, "Why are you lying to me? But why are you so excited?"

Lao He stammered and pointed at the things in the store, and after a while he shouted loudly: "This Qingfengzhai belongs to Guangenhou's family!"

These people were shocked now. They even surrounded Lao He because they were so excited and insisted on telling him about Guang Enhou in detail.

How did Lao He know so much? He quickly looked towards the door and asked Yang Erdan for help, but there was no figure of Yang Erdan outside the door.

At this time, Yang Erdan had been let in by the concierge and was walking leisurely along the bamboo forest path. Not long after arriving in the yard where the Yang brothers lived, the two men came back.

“Second brother! Why did you come from Fucheng?” Yang Santie was obviously very excited when he saw Yang Erdan.

Yang Sizhuang asked: "Is the second sister-in-law back too?"

Yang Erdan shook his head and motioned to Rubble to give them what he had brought, "I knew you were going to end up, so I came back specially to take a look. There is something else. Originally, I wanted to wait until the county examination was over before I told you, but I just went to Qingfengzhai I heard some rumors, I guess I can't hide them for long, so I'll tell you together, don't turn around and ask, but you don't know anything." "What's the matter?" Yang Santie looked confused.

Song Yi hurriedly told the two of them what happened in the capital.

The Yang Santie brothers were so surprised that they forgot how to react.

"Sizhuang, pinch me, am I dreaming?" Yang Santie blinked, his expression a little dull.

Yang Sizhuang pinched him unceremoniously, "How is it? Do you feel like you are dreaming?"

"Hiss! Why are you so cruel!" Yang Santie grimaced in pain, but couldn't help but giggle, and threw himself on Yang Erdan excitedly, "Second brother, second brother, did Aniang and eldest brother say when they will be back? I miss them!"

Yang Erdan shook his head regretfully, "Aniang may come back, but it is unlikely that my elder brother, sister-in-law and my family will come back."

Song Yi explained from the side: "The dishes cooked by the eldest son and his wife caught the emperor's attention. In addition, the Baiwei Tower in the capital is inseparable from people. From now on, the eldest son and his family will have no choice but to stay in the capital.

The madam also asked me to tell the fourth young master that originally the madam intended to give you a mansion in the capital, but now that the emperor has made you a marquis, that mansion is the marquis' mansion and cannot be given to the fourth young master, but the madam will buy you another mansion in the capital. . "

Yang Sizhuang shook his head and waved his hands, "No, no, no, go back and tell my mother that you don't need to worry so much about me. I may not even be able to go to the capital to take the exam. Why are you buying a house for me?"

He had no pressure at all. If his mother-in-law gave him a special house in the capital, he would not be able to live in that house unless he worked hard to get to Beijing to take the exam.

Song Yi giggled and said, "Madam has long expected that the Fourth Young Master would say this, so Madam has told you that you must come to Beijing to take the exam."

Yang Sizhuang looked at his two brothers helplessly, "Second brother, third brother"

Yang Santie hurriedly avoided, "Sizhuang, if you have a mouthful of meat and a mouthful of soup for your third brother, but the third brother can only help you so far, I really can't get involved in your affairs with my mother-in-law."

What a joke, he himself has to battle wits with his mother-in-law, so he doesn’t have the extra ability to take care of others.

Yang Erdan coughed twice and patted his younger brother's shoulder sympathetically, "Sizhuang, you work hard, my grandpa and grandma are still pointing at your glorious ancestors! Santie is impetuous and not as calm as you. The scholars in our family are still I have to count on you.”

Yang Sizhuang was so angry that he gritted his teeth and was about to cry, "Are you still my brother?"

“Yes!” Yang Erdan and Yang Santie said in unison, answering vigorously, but this did not prevent them from standing aside and watching.

Yang Sizhuang could only silently hold the book and go to find Mr. Ming.

As soon as he left, Yang Santie immediately gave two hundred taels to Yang Erdan, "Second brother, are you short of money over there?"

Yang Erdan couldn’t help but shook his head, “Don’t you know what’s going on over there?”

There are mountains, fields, fish ponds, livestock, and an inn in Dongli Villa. Not only does daily life cost nothing, but there is also a lot of income every day, plus the work from the workshop, it is another sum, and they This is the bulk of the wine in his family's wine shop. In just one or two months, he has already earned hundreds of taels.

 Xu Nuoyan will not go to Zhenbao Pavilion now, but will make jewelry at home. All these jewelry will be handed over to Zhong Mianmian, who will sell them. The two will split the accounts. Xu Nuoyan can also earn dozens of taels a month.

They are really not short of money.

Yang Santie's eyes curled up in a smile, "You are not short of money, just in case. You can help me give these two hundred taels to my grandpa and grandma, just as we brothers are filial to them."
