However, all the property of the Yang family's shop was sold off, even if they had a little wealth, it was just a better life than the mud legs in the countryside, and Yang Xu's education was a lot of money.

In Kyoto, every inch of land is expensive, and the cost is high. It is impossible to say that the Yang family has started to rely on pawns to live. With such in-laws, it is equivalent to many delays.

"Yang Xu passed the examination as a scholar, which shows that he is very talented. Why doesn't your father agree to the marriage?"

Li Haitang didn't understand that businessmen value profit, but they still respect scholars. If scholars are knowledgeable, if they become officials and become masters in the future, the ancestral graves will follow.

Although the reputation of a scholar is relatively low, but Yang Xu is young, as long as he is willing to work hard, he will have a lot of opportunities in the future.

"My father said that when Yang Xu passed the Jinshi examination and became an official, he would not be seven or eighty years old. How could the imperial examination be so easy..."

Xiangli knew that her father just wanted to find a reason to regret the marriage, so after her mother passed away, he began to find someone for her.

If she didn't run out, she would definitely be **** by his father and thrown to the bad old man.

Xiangli is innocent, all she can think of is running away, and the only person she can trust is the nanny. The master and servant dare not tell the people in the house that if the secret is leaked, let her father know, Xiangli thought, she must be locked up until she gets married.

"At the beginning of last year, Yang Xu, the young master of the Yang family, wrote a letter to our lady. This is how this old slave learned that Yang Xu is in Songhe Academy in Kyoto, and that the Yang family is also there."

After the mother-in-law finished speaking, she was a little uncertain, counting the time, more than a year had passed, and she didn't know if Yang Xu was still around.

Their master and servant had never been to Kyoto, and they had to travel thousands of miles along the way. After meeting the bandits and the coachman, the mother-in-law was beating her heart, and hesitated whether to go to the Yang family.

In case Yang Xu changed the academy, where would they go to find someone in such a huge capital?

Furthermore, I haven't received a letter from Yang Xu for more than a year, and my mother-in-law doesn't know whether Yang Xu is married or not. Perhaps, Yang Xu wrote the letter, but was secretly detained by his master for selfish reasons.

"I don't know if the Yang family still recognizes this marriage."

The mother-in-law murmured in her heart, but she didn't dare to say it out. She knew what her young lady was thinking, and she couldn't hide it from her.

The two were childhood sweethearts, if it wasn't for the fall of the Yang family and the death of their own wife, they would have been married by now.

Even if the Yang family doesn't recognize their relationship, they will take good care of their young lady with the friendship between Mrs. Yang and his wife's handkerchief. After much deliberation, the mother-in-law decided that it would be safer to go to the capital to find someone, because the master and servant had no way out.

"Mrs. Xiao, our master and servant have never traveled far, so we don't know everything, so we found such a coachman."

The mother-in-law felt that she had met a kind person, so she seriously asked Li Haitang for advice.

"Are you sure, Yang Xu is in Songhe Academy?"

There are at least a thousand students in Songhe Academy. It doesn't sound too easy, but it is relatively easy to draw out the rules and regulations after passing the examination as a scholar.

Li Haitang remembered that he was going to take over Ji Qiu's wine shop, and two days ago, he had discussed with the savage husband and talked about her business experience.

"Anyway, it was there more than a year ago."

There is no news for more than a year, and the mother-in-law is not very sure, so I can only go to live in Kyoto first, and then talk about it after finding someone.

The master and servant brought silver notes and some scattered silver with them on this trip, which was the dowry left by their wife before the death of the lady. In the package, in case of an emergency, it can be used as money.

The morals of the world are harsh on women, and it is not easy for women to survive, and it is even more difficult to move forward if they have no money.

"If you want to go to Kyoto well, it's not impossible."

Li Haitang thought about it, and then said, "Go to the nearby Fucheng and find a reliable caravan. It is best to have women in it. The caravan should find a big shop, so as to ensure safety."

Give the caravan a sum of money, the master and the servant have a carriage, in fact, the other party has an extra person to help drive the carriage, and the matter of carrying it is effortless at all.

When you are away from home, do not reveal your wealth, and try to keep a low profile.

"How about this, my husband and I are in a hurry for this trip, if you have no other arrangements, we can go together."

Li Haitang saw that the master and servant really didn't know anything, so it was easy to be deceived when they went out like this.

When the two went to Songhe Academy in Kyoto, they happened to be with her.

"Ma'am, that would be wonderful!"

The master and the servant were about to kneel and kowtow again, but Li Haitang stopped them with a wave of his hand. She had to say something ugly, she had something important to do, she couldn't stay in the town for too long, and if she couldn't keep up with her boss, she would have to sleep in the wilderness.

"Mrs. Xiao, Xiangli is not a person who cannot bear hardships, and she will definitely not hold back."

Xiangli shook her head, forgetting the unhappiness of last night, she always had a thought in her heart, when she saw Yang Xu in the capital, she wanted to ask why she hadn't heard from him for more than a year, and whether she still remembered this incident marriage.

Her mother died of illness, and she had to observe mourning for three years, Yang Xu might not be willing to wait.

Since they decided to go together, Li Haitang did not waste time, but there was still a problem, the group still lacked a driver.

Speaking of the coachman, Xiangli couldn't help but flinch, she was no longer a young lady when she left home, and she couldn't always be pampered, she pulled up the hem of her clothes and asked, "I don't know if driving a carriage is easy, Xiangli is willing to learn. "

"Madam, servant girl can try it."

Bai Guo tidied up her sleeves, took out a sun-shading hat from the carriage, and quickly wrapped her head scarf.

"Ginguo, then you can try and just let the carriage follow."

Li Haitang agreed immediately, and the group got into the carriage.

As for the coachman, Xiao Lingchuan tied him on the horse's back, threw him horizontally, entered the nearest town, and threw him directly to the yamen.

Going to the yamen to file a complaint requires an interrogation. Xiangli and her nanny wrote a pleading paper, signed it, and waited for the county master to convict her.

The coachman is not a local, so it is reasonable to say that he will be detained for a period of time before he is dealt with, but his own side does not have so much time to wait. The Xiangli nurse, Mrs. Wang, is very kind and doesn't care about money. down.

Rao is like this, and it will delay nearly a day.

"Mrs. Xiao, I'm sorry...I..."

Xiangli wanted to apologize again, she didn't dare to talk to Xiao Lingchuan, she hid away, every time she saw Li Haitang, she would always say three words, "I'm sorry."

"My girlfriend's name is Haitang, and I'm only two or three years older than you. You can just call me Sister Haitang."

It's fate to meet twice, and we're companions all the way, so there's no need to be so polite. The reason why Li Haitang is willing to bring the two of them is not without reason. Xiangli's master and servant are not the kind of people who have a lot of things, and she found that the nurse Wang Pozi is very skillful, and she can weave beautiful little baskets out of roadside weeds .
