Every spring, the rivers thaw, which is the time for the recovery of commercial roads. At this time of year, Canglong mansion is also busy. Motorcades from all over the country come in and out from here and transfer a large number of goods all over the country.

In addition to the business movement, another lively thing also began at this time, that is, the school movement.

Although the enrollment of the moon washing college only started in the beginning of summer, it was a long way away. I was afraid of delaying my trip. At this time, I had begun to prepare for my departure.

This year, Tang Jie was 16 years old, Shi Meng was 15 years old, and the young master was 15 and a half years old. The hairy boys who used to be ignorant have now grown into young men. Those who are tall are about to catch up with adults, and people have become much more mature and sensible than before.

The Wu family is very lively today.

As soon as Tang Zhai came in from the door, he saw that old man Wu and his wife were taking things from the house in large and small bags, all kinds of quilts, clothes and shoes out in piles.

Tang Jie looked surprised: "Dad, mom, what are you doing?"

"Hey, aren't you going to Beijing tomorrow? I have to prepare your winter clothes for you." Mrs. Wu answered while picking up.

"But isn't winter just over?"

"Then you don't want to spend the winter next year? What about the next year?" Mrs. Wu gave her dry son a white eye.

Tang Jie was helpless: "then wait until next year. If you really can't, just buy some more."

"Can that be done? Everything in Beijing is expensive. Look at our clothes. They are all good. It's a pity that no one wears them." old lady Wu shook a small jacket in her hand.

Old man Wu couldn't see it anymore: "old lady, your dress was worn by lucky son when he was a child. Don't give it to him. Young people don't wear old clothes now."

"It's still new. It's a pity not to wear it." the old lady muttered, but she put down her clothes and picked some for Tang robber.

Then there was another small cloth bag in his hand. He stuffed the cloth bag into Tang Jie's hand, grabbed Tang Jie's hand and said, "there are twenty-three, twenty-four dollars and silver in it. You can put it away and go to Beijing to make money."

Tang Jieshou shrunk: "Mom, what are you doing? I'm not short of money. There are monthly cases in the Wei mansion every month."

After becoming a servant school, the treatment of Tang Jie and Shi Meng changed. They can receive twelve liang of silver a month, equivalent to 10000 yuan a month. They are also regarded as a small white-collar. Besides the basic expenses of the college, the Wei family is responsible for them.

"Oh, what's the use of those months? Don't think your mother doesn't know. The College of cultivating immortals costs a lot. That is, everyone's childe brothers shout that money is not enough every day. Fortunately, they all tell me in their letters!"

"Brother Xing wrote again to tell you that there was not enough money?" Tang Jie noticed that he was wrong.

Mrs. Wu's face stagnated for a while, and then she smiled, "this is not a letter that came not long ago. The letter said that she wanted to buy some fairy medicine. She had no money to buy..."

"How much does he want?"

"Five hundred Liang, but we didn't have so much, so we gave him one hundred Liang."

"One hundred liang? You've given him a lot of money over the years. Where else is one hundred liang?" Tang Jie was stunned. He suddenly woke up and shouted, "did you give him all the money I've given you over the years?"

The two old men bowed their heads together.

Tang Jie's anger surged up: "why did you hide it from me? That's the money I bought you medicine!"

Because he spent most of his time in the Wei mansion these years, Tang Jie can only come and have a look occasionally. Therefore, in addition to sometimes buying medicine by himself after taking the reward, he often gives the silver directly to the second old man to let them buy some medicine to recuperate themselves.

Now it seems that they didn't spend a penny except those bought by Tang.

"Oh, it's nothing." old man Wu quickly caught Tang Jie: "we all live at such an age. It's nothing to live more or less. Besides, look at our bones. We're fine."

Then he beat his chest a few times, but he exerted too much force, which made him cough again and again. The old man quickly waved his hand: "I'm okay, it's okay, I'm just a little stuffy recently..."

Mrs. Wu had come forward and stuffed the cloth bag into Tang Jie's hand. She was embarrassed and said, "you gave us the silver. I kept it from you. I wanted to give it to you when you entered school. I didn't expect xing'er to want it, so I gave it to him. I'm sorry for you. We've got some more..."

"That's not what I'm angry about!" Tang Jie shook his head. "Wu Xing has his own hands and feet. He can earn it himself! One hundred liang of silver is useless in the college. I'm afraid he can't even buy a real elixir, but it can make you feel better and enjoy life, but you..."

He wanted to get angry, but he couldn't get angry with the second old man. He was so angry that he had to stamp his feet. He secretly hated Wu Xing for being ignorant.

The second old man said, "after all, I can help some."

Looking at the embarrassment of the second old man, Tang Jie's anger suddenly disappeared, but his eyes were moist.

After a while, he said, "well, even if you didn't give it, you didn't buy medicine. Just give it. I hope he can live up to your two elders' intentions."

Hearing Tang Jie's words, the second old man was also relieved. Mrs. Wu insisted on giving Tang Jie the silver. Tang Jie knew that if he didn't accept it, his second old man was afraid it would be even worse. He could only accept it. He was ready to find a way to get some real good miraculous medicine to send to the second old man after he arrived at the college.

That day, Tang Jie didn't let the second old man move again. He cleaned up everything at home alone until he served the second old man to sleep.

Lying in bed, Tang Jieyou thought of leaving this time, but he didn't know when he would see the second old man again.

Over the past three years, the second old man has already regarded him as his own son. He doesn't take the second old man as his parents.

Now he is going to travel far away. Once he has gone for many years, Tang Jie can't help feeling a burst of sadness in his heart.

The next morning, Tang Jie returned to the Wei house with a large bag of clothes. He only saw the busy traffic in the meditation garden. Countless servants were still busy packing up for the young master. It was not like going out of school, but moving the whole family.

Although there were only three students enrolled in the school, there were more than ten servants accompanying Wanquan city all the way, and even a spiritual master followed to ensure safety along the road. Even if we really arrive at Wanquan City, there will be some servants outside the moon washing college. The servant school is only responsible for the life in the college.

Tang Jie directly bypassed the large crowd and returned to his hut in the Wei mansion, but found that steward Qin was waiting there.

"Uncle Qin!" Tang Jie shouted.

Steward Qin looked at Tang Jie with a smile: "we're going on the road tomorrow. Are we all packed?"

"Well, just clean up the room again." Tang Jie replied.

The two entered the room together. Tang Jie wrapped the pen, ink, paper and inkstone and some civilian clothes on the table, and then took the two pots of flowers off the table.

Steward Qin was surprised: "you want to take these two potted flowers, too?"

Tang Jie said with a smile, "I learned to plant flowers without learning anything else in the Wei house for such a long time. These two potted flowers have been with me for a long time. Seeing them, I will think of my years here, so I decided to take them as a souvenir."

Steward Qin looked at the pot of small white flowers, a pot of straight and strong root carvings, and the pot fired by Tang Jie. How ugly it looked, he smiled and shook his head: "if it's really a talent, there are always quirks. Well, it's all your own business. Just like it."

Then Qin steward said, "by the way, take these silver first and use it when you enter school."

With that, steward Qin also took out a bag of silver and gave it to Tang Jie.

"Uncle Qin!"

"Take it." steward Qin smiled and replied, "I know the two elders of the Wu family must have given you some silver, but there is always not enough money. When you go to the moon washing college, it is no longer the Wei family. I can't help you in the future. You have to rely on yourself."

"That's not necessarily true. In fact, uncle Qin can still help."

"Oh? What else do you want me to do for you?" manager Qin smiled casually.

"Nothing. I just want to ask Uncle Qin to write some more letters for me..."

I took the two potted flowers back to the meditation garden. Sure enough, everyone was amazed at it.

However, Tang Jie is now a popular man in the Wei mansion. Even his family law is handed over to him, regardless of his wife's value. A "great future" alone is enough to make all servants dare not laugh.

There are seven motorcycles in the school, of which master Guang's luggage is loaded. There are three cars and four cars. One car is for the young master to eat and rest, one car is for the spiritual master, one car is for other servants, and one car is for waiting on dreams and Tang robbery.

Because the young master needs someone to serve him, Tang Jie and Shi Meng take turns. However, Tang Jie doesn't give much personal service to the young master. Therefore, Shi Meng is mainly responsible for this. Tang Jie is mainly responsible for supervising the young master's cultivation after he goes to the college, restraining his behavior and preventing him from making trouble.

Therefore, along the way, Tang's robbery is destined to be much easier than waiting for dream.

At noon, the team finally packed up. After a simple meal, Zheng Shufeng went on the road. Zheng Shufeng watched his son go and sent him off all the way. He told Tang Jie a thousand times. Then he burst into tears and persuaded everyone to leave the team.

On the road, Shi Meng went to the young master first. Tang Jie sat alone in the car and looked at the scenery outside through the window.

The scenery outside the window is slowly regressing and getting farther and farther. Gradually, even the welcoming and seeing off people have become small black spots and disappeared in their eyes. "Hee hee!" laughter came from the back of my head.

Little Yiyi climbed onto Tang Jie's shoulder. At this time, there was only one pot left of the two pots of flowers, but the thick root carving still stood alone in the pot.

Today's Yi Yi has grown up a lot more than when she saw Tang robbery.

Thumbelina used to be more than 20 centimeters tall. Although she still looks exquisite, she is no longer the little spot that people worry about at any time and will die if they walk carelessly.

Lying on Tang robber like a little squirrel, Yi looked curiously out of the window: "brother, are we finally leaving here?"

"Yes, I'm leaving." Tang Jie answered mechanically. Suddenly in his mind, he remembered the timid feeling of leaving home said by the fourth young lady.

Yes, there are always some people you can't give up!

On the contrary, this little thing has been with himself since he was born. He has never contacted any outsiders. He is heartless and heartless. He only feels very curious and fresh about traveling.

She giggled and asked Tang Jie, "is the outside world wonderful?"

"Wonderful."

"Does the outside world look good?"

"Good looking."

"Can I go out by myself in the future?"

"No, at least not yet."

Little Yi's interest immediately fell down.

She chewed and said, "hate! Hate! Hate!"

The voice full of childlike innocence finally reduced Tang Jie's melancholy of parting. He touched the little guy's head and said, "well, stop making trouble. Here, give you a reward, okay?"

Tang Jie hands over his finger.

Unexpectedly, the little guy threw his head: "no!"

"Why?"

"Because my brother's blood is getting harder and harder to drink now."

"It's hard to drink?" Tang Jie was surprised. "It's impossible. It's still the original formula and the original taste."

"That's not what I mean!" little Yi jumped on Tang Jie's shoulder and shouted, "it doesn't mean it's hard... It's hard... It's just... It's hard to drink!"

Little Yi danced and struggled to draw out what he wanted to say.

Tang Jie realized that recently, it was more and more difficult for Xiao Yi to suck his blood. It often took a lot of effort to suck a little.

Tang Jie was surprised. He looked down at his hand. He saw that his skin was as warm as white jade. It was completely different from the hands of workers. There was a faint aura. Tang Jie took a hard bite at his hand, but he couldn't bite it. He finally bit it with force. He saw a little blood bead seeping out and wandering on his fingertips, but it didn't fall.

"Blood is like mercury!" Tang Jie blurted out.
