Provincial adminstrative commissioner yamen (government office) proclaimed the second day of appointing, returning to home village of going to the capital and returning to home village that the numerous bore children then proceeded to new official post proceeding to new official post that goes to the capital, scattered in a panic entirely. Xu Boyi was nonstop, gets ready the luggage to rush to Hu county immediately. 布政使衙门颁下任命的第二天,众举子们便赴任的赴任、上京的上京、回乡的回乡,统统作鸟兽散了。徐伯夷更是马不停蹄,立即打点行装奔了葫县。 In waiting for these days of provincial adminstrative commissioner yamen (government office) promulgation placement result, the numerous bear children invites and suppose mutually feasts happily. In this time, the fellow villager relations and same year relate, is an important part of government personal connection, they are not only in the same year are in the same year, innate compared with other officials near, later is looking after mutually, is an impregnable relationship network. 在等待布政使衙门颁布安置结果的这几天里,众举子们纷纷互相邀请、设宴饮乐。在这个时代,同乡关系和同年关系,都是官场人脉的重要一环,他们既是同年又是同年,先天就比其他官员近了一层,以后相互照拂着,便是一张牢不可破的关系网。 However Ye Xiaotian has not been invited that other bear children, he is not the orthodox Scholar family background, before and these people did not have the relation, in addition his personality temperament and style of speaking action Scholar, was not really incompatible with these people likely. 不过叶小天并没有受到其他举子的邀请,一则他不是正统读书人出身,以前和这些人全无联系,再加上他的性情脾气、谈吐举动也实在不像个读书人,和这些人格格不入。 What is more important, he gave to offend like first indanthrene leader and Wang Haoming these government big shot Cui, although could not have seen to suppress his trace at present, good that may keep at a respectful distance, based the government, relating the personal connection was no doubt important, standing in line correctly or was not an important matter. 更重要的是,他把崔象先这样的士林领袖以及王浩铭这些的官场大佬都给得罪了,虽说眼下还看不出有打压他的痕迹,可还是敬而远之的好,立足官场,关系人脉固然重要,站队正确与否更是一件至关重要的事。 These bear children a dynasty fish dive Dragon Gate, from Saint „affected over-literary style” draws out the head, people skills base on the reality naturally, the matter that ponders also paid great attention to the practical interest. 这些举子们一朝鱼跃龙门,从圣人的“之乎者也”中拔出脑袋来,为人处事就自然而然地立足于现实,所思考的事情也更注重现实利益了。 Ye Xiaotian is also disinclined to do with them, he has not raised personally ignites, convention custom on many examination site and government has a smattering of knowledge ignorantly, therefore he received the appointment of provincial adminstrative commissioner yamen (government office), above saw clearly stipulated when the proceeding to new official post date, hurried to immediately the rural inn rented to subscribe the carriage, the long-distance carriage is ordered. 叶小天也懒得同他们打交道,他又没个人提点着,许多科场和官场上的惯例规矩都浑浑噩噩一知半解,因此等他接到布政使衙门的任命,见上面明确规定了赴任日期,马上赶去车马店租订马车时,长途马车早已被人预订一空了。 Helpless Ye Xiaotian must leave dispiritedly, walks while thinks, the time that the provincial adminstrative commissioner yamen (government office) request assumes the post is so tight, do not say that the Red maple lake does not have the time to go, the carriage could not subscribe to hurry along to become the difficult problem, it seems like can only buy several horses, was only this journey is endless. Without the vehicle, must bring Yaoyao and fuwa and giant hurries along to become the major problem. 叶小天无奈只得怏怏离开,一边走一边想,布政使衙门要求到任的时间这么紧,不要说红枫湖没有时间去,马车订不到想赶路都成了难题,看来只能去买几匹马了,只是这路途漫漫。没有车子,要带着遥遥和福娃儿、大个子赶路可就成了大问题。 Although Ye Xiaotian is seemingly uninhibited, but which is the lighter and which is the heavier obtained clear, he was willful in Resting Clouds pavilion, got angry before mansion yamen (government office) hits Xie Chuanfeng, did not concern most basic east and west, if who wants therefore to depend on a oneself happily wicked to make handling to him, only if he does not want to struggle, otherwise always had the truth to say. 叶小天虽然看似不羁,但孰轻孰重还是分得清的,他在栖云亭恣意狂放,在府衙门前怒打谢传风,都不关乎最根本的东西,如果谁想因此凭一己喜恶对他做出处置,他除非不想争,否则总有道理可讲。 However the official order of government authorities, if violates or exceeds the time limit. Then makes any handling to be perfectly justified to him, he has no reason to plead innocence. He does not want to lose this hard-won person in office, if his father old lady knew one had/left an officer, does not know that wants delightedly, important matter that brings honor to ancestors, he was only one just and year of capping ceremony youth, was not a comparing broken bustling place looks through obsolete of humans affair, how could to care? 然而官府的正式命令,如果违背或逾期。那么对他做出任何处置都是天经地义的,他没有任何理由辩白。他不想失去这个得来不易的官身,如果他的老爹老娘得知自家出了一个官,不知要有多欢喜,这么光宗耀祖的大事,他只是一个刚及弱冠之年的青年,又不是一个勘破红尘看破世事的老朽,岂能不放在心上？ Ye Xiaotian is thinking, long sighed. Re-entering Hu county he is very no doubt happy, not only there has his unforgettable memory, the first friend who after having he leaves Beijing, to make, but in his heart somewhat is also reluctant to part. The time is so tight, was really hard to go to Red maple lake one line. 叶小天想着,不禁又长长地叹了口气。重回葫县他固然很开心,那儿不仅有他难忘的记忆,更有他离京之后交下的第一个朋友,可他心中又有些依依不舍。时间这么紧,实在难以赴红枫湖一行了。 Ye Xiaotian is thinking, when somewhat is then confused, takes a step to go out of the front door of all sea rural inn. Touched a shoulder with two people who the front surface walked exactly. That person halts suddenly, raises the sound said to Ye Xiaotian: „leaf my worthy brother?” 叶小天一路想着,便有些神不守舍,迈步走出四海车马店的大门时。恰与迎面走来的两人碰了一下肩膀。那人忽然站住,向叶小天扬声道:“叶贤弟？” Ye Xiaotian hears sound halts, turns round to look. Recognizes this person with Juren (graduate) Zhao Wenyuan of his classmate. Initially in the Resting Clouds pavilion bank, this person once to him illustrated content that Li Qiuchi, Xu Boyi and the others debated, afterward before mansion yamen (government office) he and Xie Chuanfeng thrashed, this person also once acted to exhort, Ye Xiaotian was good to his impression. 叶小天闻声止步,回身一看。认出此人正是与他同科的举人赵文远。当初在栖云亭畔,此人曾向他解说李秋池、徐伯夷等人辩论的内容,后来在府衙门前他与谢传风厮打,此人也曾出面解劝,叶小天对他印象不错。 Ye Xiaotian said busily submissively: „Originally is elder brother Wenyuan, loses the respect, loses the respect.” Ye Xiaotian is saying, selects the simple and beautiful female to sweep one to that the Zhao Wenyuan side stands high fast, talking in heart: „Is it possible that is this woman the Zhao Wenyuan wife?” 叶小天忙拱手道:“原来是文远兄,失敬,失敬。”叶小天说着,向赵文远身边所站的那位高挑清丽的女子飞快地扫了一眼,心道:“这女人莫非是赵文远的妻子？” Really, Zhao Wenyuan said with a smile: „Aha, is really leaf my worthy brother. Madame, this leaf my worthy brother is my same year, this time goes together the Hu county assignment, later was the colleague. leaf my worthy brother, this is my wife diving.” 果然,赵文远笑道:“啊哈,果然是叶贤弟。夫人,这位叶贤弟是我的同年,此番同往葫县任职,以后就是同僚了。叶贤弟,这是拙荆潜氏。” Ye Xiaotian is busy at bowing with hands clasped the ritual saying: „Xiaotian has seen the sister.” 叶小天忙揖礼道:“小天见过嫂夫人。” Qian Qingqing to his luck a ritual, tender sound said: „Brother leaf dispense with ceremony.” 潜清清向他福了一礼,娇声道:“叶兄弟免礼。” Qian Qingqing banned God of the Earth water lakeside in Miao seedlings initially, once was the song dancing parter with Bai Xiaoxiao in the tent/account together, the maid but who in the tent/account served on the same day dances Ji to be many, is melting the thick dance makeup, is widely divergent with the appearance of this moment clear water cotton rose. 潜清清当初在生苗禁地神水湖畔,曾与白筱晓一起在帐中作歌伴舞,但当日帐中侍候的侍婢舞姬们很多,又都化着浓厚的舞妆,与此刻清水芙蓉的模样大相径庭。 Although Ye Xiaotian does not have the face blind sickness, does not have „half does not forget” the retentiveness, after that day, with has had Bai Xiaoxiao that he has had to do, this Qian Qingqing had not made an appearance again, at this time looks at not the feeling of knowing well. 叶小天虽然没有脸盲症,却也没有“半面不忘”的好记性,自那日之后,与他打过交道的一直只有白筱晓,这个潜清清再未露过面,此时瞧来并无熟识的感觉。 Zhao Wenyuan said: „leaf is my worthy brother also the renting a car horse?” 赵文远道:“叶贤弟也是来租车马的？” The Ye Xiaotian forced smile said: „, What a pity, the long-distance carriages and horses were rented up, the registration date of provincial adminstrative commissioner yamen (government office) stipulation is also near, I was planning that goes to the horse market to buy several horses.” 叶小天苦笑道:“正是,可惜,长途车马都被人租光了,布政使衙门规定的报到日期又近,我正打算去马市上买几匹马。” Zhao Wenyuan said with a smile: „This goes to the Hu county scenery far away, there is a baggage partner, since, how rides a horse to endure? I decided the carriages and horses early, because walks early tomorrow morning, therefore takes today. Since leaf my worthy brother has not subscribed the carriages and horses, is inferior to travel together with me tomorrow.” 赵文远笑道:“此去葫县山水迢迢,又有行李伴从,骑马怎么吃得消？我早定了车马的,因为明日一早就走,所以今日来取。既然叶贤弟不曾订到车马,不如明日与我同行。” Ye Xiaotian is busy at declining said: „Improper improper, although I the baggage are not many, the family member are many, travels together with the brother, has inconvenient.” Others have the female family members, this goes long-distance endless, he is how good to push with the female family members in a vehicle, although the Guizhou province common social practice and Central Plain are different, this is also very disrespectful behavior, Ye Xiaotian naturally must decline. 叶小天忙推辞道:“不妥不妥,我虽行李不多,家里人却不少,与兄同行,多有不便。”人家既有女眷,此去长途漫漫,他怎好与人家女眷挤在一辆车子里,虽说贵州民风与中原不同,这也是很失礼的行为,叶小天当然要推辞。 Zhao Wenyuan haha said with a smile: „leaf my worthy brother does not need to be polite, I rented three horse-drawn vehicles. Now adds on you not to relate, if there are female family members, may with my wife. Your my brother pushed was good, on the road was also good a companion.” 赵文远哈哈笑道:“叶贤弟不必客气,我租了三辆马车呢。如今加上你也没关系,如有女眷,可与拙荆同车。你我兄弟挤一挤就好了,路上也好有个伴儿。” Ye Xiaotian said: „This......” 叶小天道:“这个……” Zhao Wenyuan said with a smile: „leaf my worthy brother, should not be polite with me. We in the same year, just entered official to hold an office in the same county, later must have to do, today is intimate, later has anything also to take care of well mutually.” 赵文远笑道:“叶贤弟,你就不要跟我客气了。咱们同年,刚刚入仕又在同一个县任职,以后少不了打交道的时候,今日多亲近亲近,以后有什么事也好相互照应。” Ye Xiaotian secretly thought: „This formed cliques, good, Xu Boyi went to Hu county, feels embarrassed with me surely, many friend many roads.” Access road: „So, many thanks elder brother Wenyuan.” 叶小天暗道:“这就是拉帮结派了,也好,徐伯夷去了葫县,必定与我为难,多个朋友多条路。”便道:“如此,多谢文远兄了。” Zhao Wenyuan said with a smile: „My worthy brother waits a minute in this, inside I go to get the carriages and horses to come out, you and I walk, first recognizes my dwelling, early tomorrow morning you come, we together.” 赵文远笑道:“贤弟在此稍候,我去里边领车马出来,你与我走一趟,先认认我的住处,明日一早你们过来,咱们一起出发。” The Ye Xiaotian nod complies, Zhao Wenyuan then makes the wife also wait in out of the door and Ye Xiaotian acts as companion, from walks toward the carriages and horses line. 叶小天点头答应,赵文远便让妻子也候在门外与叶小天作伴,自往车马行中走去。 When Qian Qingqing just now sees Ye Xiaotian initially, in the heart also has the fright slightly, but sees Ye Xiaotian not to recognize her to come, this heart then put down. 潜清清方才初见叶小天时,心中还稍有惴惴,但见叶小天并没有认出她来,这颗心便放下了。 Actually they think that Ye Xiaotian is Xia Family meddles a Hu county board game piece, recognized that Ye Xiaotian is the clear Zhao Wenyuan details, even if that recognizes her to come still no at the worst, they had not planned to elute Yangzhou, a state of broadcasting the brand mark. But Ye Xiaotian, since has not recognized, naturally is more convenient she to handle affairs in Hu county. 其实他们都以为叶小天是夏家插手葫县的一枚棋子,也就认定叶小天是清楚赵文远底细的,那么即便认出她来也没甚么大不了的,他们本就没打算洗脱播州杨家的烙印。可叶小天既然没认出来,当然更方便她在葫县行事。 A Qian Qingqing pupil wave revolution, suddenly sweet say/way: „Do Brother leaf, this go to Hu county, the officer occupy what Zhi?” 潜清清眸波一转,忽地嫣然道:“叶兄弟,此去葫县,官居何职啊？” Ye Xiaotian raises slightly to say with a smile: „! Provincial adminstrative commissioner yamen (government office) entrusted the duty of my Code of History.” 叶小天欠身笑道:“哦！布政使衙门委了我一个典史之职。” Qian Qingqing light oh, said: „Code of History, wields the judicial punishment prison, that may the power and prestige. Yeah, what a pity my husband makes relay station deputy, does unpromising job who that welcomes and sees off.” 潜清清轻喔一声,道:“典史啊,执掌司法刑狱,那可威风的很呢。哎,可惜我丈夫只是做个驿丞,干那迎来送往的没出息营生。” Ye Xiaotian knits the brows secretly, talking in heart: „Is the wife, how can in front of the bystander scolded the husband not be, it seems like that this Zhao Wenyuan wife, usually decided at home domineeringly however.” 叶小天暗暗皱眉,心道:“为人妻子,怎么能在外人面前数落自己丈夫的不是,看来这赵文远的妻子,平素在家里定然跋扈的很了。” The Ye Xiaotian smile said: „Sister, this you may speak incorrectly, similarly is relay station deputy, this Hu county relay station deputy may different general. That is the Guizhou province north gate, is the relay station most essential place, as long as can there , no matter what relay station deputy, the authority is extremely heavy. Can you look at elsewhere relay station deputy also to have the soldier besides the errand runners and minor employee to dispatch? But this Hu county relay station deputy, the subordinate then has more than hundred soldiers.” 叶小天微笑道:“嫂夫人,这你可说错了,同样是驿丞,这葫县驿丞可不同一般。要知道,那可是贵州的北大门,是驿道最关键处,但凡能在那儿任驿丞的,权柄都是极重的。你可看过别处的驿丞除了驿卒还有兵丁可以差遣？但这葫县驿丞,麾下便有百余兵丁。” Qian Qingqing said: „! So that's how it is, that actually my matronly view. Brother leaf may once marry the wife, what family peer does this go to Hu county also to have?” 潜清清道:“啊！原来如此,那倒是我妇人之见了。叶兄弟可曾娶过妻子,此去葫县还有什么家眷同行么？” Ye Xiaotian said: „Little brother has not married, this goes to Hu county, is five -year-old little younger sister, in addition two brothers and an elder.” 叶小天道:“小弟尚未婚配,此去葫县,只有一个年方五岁的小妹子,此外还有两位兄弟、一位长者。” The Qian Qingqing dimple like the flower, said: „That good, tomorrow lets your little younger sister with me, this may not dislike all the way lonely.” 潜清清笑靥如花,道:“那好极了,明日让你那小妹子跟我同车吧,这一路上可就不嫌寂寞了。” Two people are saying, several cart drivers pull the carriage to come out from the front door. This rural inn comes and goes out for the large cart, does not have the stair not to have the threshold, the front door also cultivates spaciously. 两人正说着,几个车把式牵着马车从大门里出来。这车马店为了方便大车出入,既无台阶也无门槛,大门也修得宽敞。 In front of the cart drivers is drawing the carriage, back the rural inn storekeeper is accompanying Zhao Wenyuan, to the entrance, said „many thanks patronage and bon voyage” the modesty, Zhao Wenyuan then drew Ye Xiaotian to board a carriage, on Qian Qingqing behind second, Zhao Wenyuan said an address, then made the cart driver start off. 车把式前边拉着马车,后边车马店掌柜陪着赵文远,到了门口,说了一番“多谢光顾、一路顺风”的客气话,赵文远便拉着叶小天登上一辆马车,潜清清上了后面第二辆,赵文远说个地址,便让车把式上路了。 This Zhao Wenyuan is very talkative, is good at creating the topic, chatted, more said with Ye Xiaotian nearly. The car(riage) is walking, the roadside presents a big dwelling suddenly, the blue brick inundates, Double Lion brand guards a gate, the wall screening flagpole, has it all. 这赵文远很是健谈,也善于制造话题,一路说说笑笑的,与叶小天越说越近乎。车正走着,路边忽然出现一座高大宅院,青砖漫地,双狮守门,照壁旗杆,一应俱全。 Ye Xiaotian looked at one at will, sees in the gate steep large two character Xia Residence, in the heart shakes, quickly asked: „Xia Residence? Can here be Red maple lake Xia Family in Guiyang prefecture official residence?” 叶小天随意看了一眼,陡见门上斗大两个字“夏府”,不由心中一震,急忙问道:“夏府？这里可就是红枫湖夏家在贵阳的府邸？” Zhao Wenyuan one dull, talking in heart: „You immediately were the lucky son-in-law in Red maple lake, how hasn't Xia Residence even come?” In the mouth actually should say: „Good, except for Red maple lake Xia Family, which Xia Family also there is able to build up the so huge dwelling?” 赵文远一呆,心道:“你马上就是红枫湖的乘龙快婿了,怎么连夏府都没来过？”口中却应道:“不错,除了红枫湖夏家,又有哪个夏家建得起如此庞大的宅院？” Vehicle slowly line, good long time, the roadside spreads is the courtyard wall of Xia Family dwelling, Ye Xiaotian looks at the Xia Residence high courtyard wall as before, in the heart is having mixed emotions: „Yeah! Wants my big brother to say the wife initially, but the matchmaker went to a gate, both parents meet, this wedding on subscribing under. I with the big brother children of the same mother, was only born late column fragrant time compared with him, how the luck missed so many, wants to ask a wife is so difficult?” 车子缓缓而行,好半晌,路边蔓延的依旧是夏家宅院的院墙,叶小天望着夏府高高的院墙,心中百感交集:“哎！想当初我大哥说媳妇儿,只是媒人上了趟门,双方父母见了个面,这婚事就订下了。我跟大哥一母同胞,只比他晚出生一柱香的时间,怎么运气就差了这么多,想找个媳妇这么难呢？” Ye Xiaotian repents, the optimistic instinct made him quickly find a satisfied excuse for oneself: „ Different, how Shuiwu and my sister-in-law compare, even if had not had her father killed matter afterward, depends on her to have the engagement early, still being doomed there are many setbacks before success. 叶小天自怨自艾一番,乐观的天性使得他很快就为自己找了一个心安理得的理由:“不一样嘛,水舞和我大嫂怎么比呢,就算后来没有发生她爹被杀的事情,就凭她早有婚约,也注定好事多磨嘛。 As for Yingying that not to mention, others are seven female celestial common characters, seven female celestial no doubt with cowherd boy, but the putting cowherd boy of the world tens of thousands, I can become luckiest that should be what kind of good fortune! 至于莹莹那就更不用说了,人家可是七仙女儿一般的人物,七仙女固然跟了牛郎,可天下的放牛郎成千上万,我能成为其中最幸运的那个,该是何等福气！ Let alone, seven female celestial don't, have a grandmother to create difficulties even? I changed into the father-in-law from mother -in-law, although Milky Way is difficult to cross, so long as I am willing to be attentive, can always put up that magpie bridge!( To be continued......) 更何况,就算七仙女儿,不还有个王母从中作梗么？我只是从丈母娘换成了老丈人而已,银河虽然难渡,只要我肯用心,总能搭起那座鹊桥！(未完待续……)
