Countryside Romance

Mu Yun looked at the busy Ji Ge and couldn't help laughing.

As long as he had free time, he would come to the shop to help. He could be considered half a shop assistant. He had been flustered and had always made mistakes in the beginning, but now he was able to do it very smoothly. It was much more fluent than the book he had written.

She could not help but laugh and say:

"Bro, you might as well quit being a top scholar and open a shop with me. You have spent more time in my shop than you have in the yamen. "

"Then how much do you want to pay me?" Giggle asked with a smile.

Mu Yun thought about it and smiled.

"Since you already have such good benefits, it's not worth it even if I give you a little more money." "I might as well give you five taels of silver a month."

Mu Yun's proud look made it seem as if Ji Ge had taken a huge advantage over her.

Ji Ge couldn't help but laugh out loud. He patted Mu Yun's shoulders and said:

"This little bit of silver is not even enough for me to spend for a month."

Mu Yun opened her eyes wide and said,

"You live alone in the government office. There is a special chef in the government office and you don't even need to wash the clothes. What else is there to spend?" From time to time, our Lin Family's four members would go and bring Lin Lang some food, which would not even cost one tael of silver per month. "

Zerg shook his head and laughed.

"You're just ordinary people, and I still need to take care of things from top to bottom. This government business is not as simple as you think."

Mu Yun frowned and asked him:

"Do you need to bribe anyone else?"

Ji Ge couldn't help but laugh. He reached out his hand to knock Mu Yun on the head and said:

"It's not a bribe or anything. "Since you've become an official, your food and clothing are much more exquisite. If other officials were to see that your body is too plain, a barrier will form in your heart."

"You guys still have this kind of care in the government. It's too troublesome." Mu Yun thought for a moment, then asked, "But aren't those officials dressed very simply?"

"Have you seen that? What you have heard is that they either worked on their face or were exaggerated, saying that they were dressed like ordinary people. But, ah, they are officials after all, how can they be compared with the common people? "

Mu Yun couldn't help but frown and say,

"No wonder so many of the officials couldn't even start a pot in their homes. It turns out that all the money was spent on wearing them."

Ziggy smiled and did not correct her.

There were many people in the government, all kinds of people. There were those who were willing to give alms to others when they had money, and there were also students like him who were born because he was the Minister of the Left.

Mu Yun suddenly had a flash of inspiration and asked:

"This town is very small and isn't lively at all. There's no one opening anything that looks like a blacksmith's shop, study room, or teahouse."

Before Mu Yun had crossed over to this world, the television station had been reproducing Jin Yong's novels every year. The ancient world that she had seen in those novels was exceptionally vibrant and lively.

However, now that she had crossed over, she felt that it wasn't that wonderful and couldn't help but feel disappointed.

Seeing her expression, Ziggy laughed.

"These things are only so-so in the capital. If you want to find interesting things, you have to go to the pleasure boat, the Treasure Hall, and the temple library. This is a third-rate place that most scholars like in the capital. "

"Isn't that pleasure boat a more elegant flower house?" Mu Yun's eyes lit up and she couldn't help but tease.

Ziggy knocked her on the head and said,

"You little pervert. "If you order a servant, they will only comment on the poems and enjoy the scenery when you arrive at the cruise liner. If you want to have fun, there will naturally be people who accompany you to Wu Mountain."

"Eh, it seems like you live a rich life in the capital." Mu Yun teased.

Ji Ge faintly smiled and did not directly answer. Instead, he said:

"I don't usually go to these places, I'm just a friend inviting me in, once or twice a month. More often than not, I would go to the Treasure Hall and look at the finely crafted things, or to the temple to burn incense, and to the scriptures of their temple to build up my emotions. "

In Mu Yun's mind, there was only the Shaolin Temple in Jin Yong's novel, and also the image of a monk sweeping the ground.

She could not help but laugh and say:

"Then are the monks in the temple very powerful?" If someone were to trespass into the temple, would they be beaten to the point of looking for their teeth? "

Ji Ge looked at Mu Yun in surprise and asked.

"Why do you think that?" Why would a thief go to the temple to steal? The temple was a holy place. If it was the temples that the imperial family frequents, there would be imperial bodyguards guarding them. Even if something were to happen, it would not be the temple's turn for the people to take action. "

Mu Yun couldn't help feeling disappointed.

Looking at her expression, he smiled and rubbed her head, saying:

"Why do you keep talking about weird things? What exactly is in your head?"

Following that, he picked out some strange news from the capital and told it to Mu Yun.

"It is indeed much more lively in the capital than here. Almost every half month, there would be an event held in the capital. If it wasn't to enjoy the flowers and recite the poems, then it would be a competition of sorts. There were so many things that happened that no one could stop … "

Ji Ge picked up a few other popular festivals in the capital for Mu Yun to listen to.

Mu Yun gasped in astonishment as she thought to herself, "I just arrived in this world, and she wanted to escape. In the end, she was touched by the Lin Family and is willing to stay." Having worked hard for the Lin Clan for so long, it was no longer a problem for her to eat and wear daily. She also had some thoughts on the development of the store. But now, it seemed that her vision was too limited, and her vision was limited to the little town. It was better to go out and see the outside world. Not only would it broaden her horizons, it might also be able to enlighten her on even more bizarre ideas.

She suddenly realized that the reason why she had been running the shop before was because of her experiences before she transmigrated. There were different ways to deal with different situations. If she were to use her previous experiences, she would definitely be at odds with this era.

It might not be very obvious now, but if she didn't improve, there would definitely be a big flaw in the later stages of the game.

Mu Yun had an idea to solve this problem, and an opportunity appeared on Ji Ge's side.

This is true of bureaucracy. Ji Ge had clearly won the top scholar the previous autumn's event, but to actually go to the capital and report for duty, he had to wait for a year.

His condition was pretty good. With the Left Premier's support, he was quite lucky to be able to report to the capital within a year. If he didn't have a famous master behind him, he would have dragged it out even further.

Today, Ji Ge thought of the discussion he had with Mu Yun a few days ago, so he went to the shop to ask Mu Yun.

"I'll be going to the capital in a few days to report on my work, do you want to travel with me? Although the journey won't be comfortable, but the customs and customs along the way will definitely be different from that of the town. This will allow you to understand more about the real Jianghu, and not the stories that are told in those stories."

Mu Yun ignored the last sentence, as well as Ji Ge's mocking.

Her eyes lit up and she asked:

"How long will it take to walk?"

"The middle part of the capital is not too far from here. If we were to use carriages to travel, it would probably take a month."

Before teleporting, it only took Mu Yun four to five days to go from the most northwest to the most southeast of the Great Heaven Dynasty. Mu Yun had long gotten used to this kind of transportation. And now, it actually required a month! Since it was only the distance from town to the capital, she could not help but feel that her lazy body had awakened, and she did not want to go out.

In the stealth residence, Mu Yun tried to find an excuse: During this month, many things could happen. If anything happened in the shop, she wouldn't be able to solve it.

After all, this was not the first time the Huang Family had been tricked by someone.

Ji Ge also understood Mu Yun's worry and said,

"This matter is of great benefit to you. Go back and discuss it with Lin Jinyan before you speak to Madam Huang again. I believe that after they find out, they will fully support you." I will not leave the town for a few more days. Before I leave, I will tell you if you want to go to the capital. "

Mu Yun thanked Ji Ge for his consideration and quickly replied.

In the afternoon, Lin Jinyan waited for Mu Yun to close the shop.

Mu Yun looked at Lin Jinyan's face and didn't know what to say.

That night, when the two of them talked about their past, she could hear that Lin Jinyan was still somewhat uneasy and worried that she would leave.

Would opening his mouth at this moment cause a greater misunderstanding?

After thinking about it, Mu Yun didn't think of a good way to open her mouth and instead thought of a bunch of excuses to convince Lin Jinyan.

Lin Jinyan, who was driving the carriage, also realized that something was wrong with Mu Yun. Normally, she would stay by her side. Although the two were usually Chen Mo, from time to time, Mu Yun would tell him some jokes. This time, they were intentionally separated into two different spaces, which had never happened before.

At home.

Lin Jinyan stopped Mu Yun and asked:

"You have something on your mind today, why didn't you tell me?"

Mu Yun knew her condition couldn't be hidden from Lin Jinyan, but she didn't expect him to ask so quickly.

Ever since the two of them became closer, Lin Jinyan seemed to be more direct with her. She also knew that most of the problems between husband and wife were caused by the accumulation of misunderstandings and lack of communication.

So she looked straight at Lin Jinyan and said:

"Today, my brother told me that he was going to go to the capital to report on his duty and asked me if I wanted to go there together. Although the journey is one month's worth of appointment, there must be all sorts of local customs along the way for me to experience. But the road is really too long. I'm worried about problems in the shop, as well as mother's soft personality. Even if you stay, you … "

Lin Jinyan shook her head, interrupting Mu Yun's worries.

"When you told me about this, you first explained the benefits of this trip, then you explained your worries. Thinking about it like this, you must have preferred to go. If you want to go, I will definitely go with you. "

Hearing his words, Mu Yun immediately wanted to explain.

At this moment, Mrs Huang's voice cut in.

"This is a good thing. Mr. Ji is the imperial court's top scholar. You will benefit greatly from his company. Also, young people should go out more and see something different. "You are both intelligent people, and are confined in this small town. Do you think that this old man has done this to you? I am going to die from shame!"

She had already finished her meal and was about to carry it out when she heard Lin Jinyan and Mu Yun speaking. Her face showed some excitement, thinking that they were arguing. She couldn't help but go up and listen. After knowing Mu Yun's thoughts, she wanted to encourage her.

But as she spoke, her eyes reddened.

Mu Yun quickly went over and hugged her shoulders. She patted her back and said,

"Mother, don't say such a thing, you are naturally the first one we speak of. The reason why we want to go out and take a look is so that the Lin Clan can become better. However, if something were to happen to you after we leave here, wouldn't all of our efforts be in vain? "

When Madam Huang heard her words, she looked at her with sincere eyes. There wasn't the slightest intention of coaxing her. Her eyes reddened and tears welled up in her eyes.

She said:

"I already have a lot of money at home. At most, you guys can hire someone to watch over me. If you don't, you can hire a few more people to fill up the entire courtyard! is to never let me become an obstacle in your way! "

As Mrs Huang spoke, tears began to flow down her face.

Mu Yun reached out to wipe her tears and said,

"Alright, Mother, I understand your intentions. Do not cry, for you to cry like this shows that we are very unfilial. "

Lin Jinyan pulled the two of them to the table, sat herself down, picked up her chopsticks and said:

"After standing in the yard and talking so much, my stomach is already flat from hunger. I'll eat first, then talk after I finish eating."

Mu Yun was grateful that Lin Jinyan had interrupted their conversation. She pulled Madam Huang to a table. The three of them were eating while chatting about the interesting things that happened today.
