第五百七十八章 做官也不容易(2 / 2)

韩四当官 卓牧闲 2088 字 2022-04-27

……

在段家吃的捎午,回到刚挂上“奉政第”牌匾的女儿家已经是傍晚。

韩大的两个娃韩仕通、韩仕达和韩二的娃韩仕途已经下学,正在院子里嬉笑打闹。韩二家的闺女小兰虽没念书但比那几个念书的娃懂事,正拿着跟她差不多高的笤帚在扫院子。

韩二婆娘杨氏一见着段吉庆就小心翼翼地说:“段老爷,宵夜做好了,我娘和老夫人正在里头说话。”

“让老太太和娃们先吃,我不饿,我坐会儿就回去。”

“行,那我进去喊我娘。”

刚没了老伴儿的张氏真不大习惯城里的生活,好在亲家母徐氏不但没瞧不起她,而且每天都来陪她说话,甚至叫上柱子娘、关婶和幺妹儿她娘一起陪她去寺庙上香。加上孙子孙女天天在眼前转,倒也不觉得寂寞。

她和亲家母走出来跟孙子孙女一起围着饭桌坐下,端起碗见亲家公不吃,心里又有些忐忑。

段吉庆反应过来,连忙道:“亲家母,我不是不吃,是中午在段大人家吃得太撑。到了这个年纪,胃口大不如以前,再吃的话晚上就别想歇息了。”

“亲家母,别管他,我们吃我们的。”徐氏笑道。

“亲家,那……那我们先吃了?”

“吃吧,你们慢慢吃。”

韩大家的大小子韩仕通在村里念过几天书,胆子大,忍不住问:“段老爷,您不是说我叔要回来丁忧吗,他咋还没回来?”

“是啊段老爷,这都快过年了!”韩仕途也端着碗扑闪着大眼睛问。

段吉庆很想问问先生有没有教过他们啥叫“食不言寝不语”,但见亲家母也抬起了头,干脆坐到桌边,用手指沾着茶水在桌面上边画边如数家珍地说:“京师皇华驿到咱们四川省城成都共四千七百五十里,两千五百九十里至陕西咸阳县渭水驿,五十里至兴平县白渠驿,九十里至武功县驿,六十里至扶风县驿,六十里至岐山县驿,五十里至凤翔县驿,九十里至宝鸡县驿……

四十五里至宁羌州黄坝驿,六十里至广元县神宣驿,五十里至广元县望云驿,四十里至广元县问津驿,四十里至昭化县大木村驿,四十里至剑州剑门驿,六十里至剑州驿,四十里至剑州上亭铺驿,四十里至梓潼县驿,六十里至绵州魏城驿,六十里至绵州驿,三十里至新铺驿,三十里至罗江驿,六十里至德阳驿,四十里至汉州驿,五十里至新都驿,赶到新都驿还得再走五十里才能到成都的锦官驿!”

小家伙们惊呆了,韩仕通更是惊诧地问:“段老爷,这么多地方,这么多地名,您是咋记得的?”

“爷爷我以前就是管驿站驿铺的,管了几十年,能记不得吗?”段吉庆得意地笑道。

“这些地方全归您管?”

“刚才说的那些地方我可管不着,爷爷我那会儿只管重庆府治下各州县散厅的驿站驿铺,刚才说的那些地方爷爷我也只是晓得,其实一个地方也没去过。”段吉庆想了想,接着道:“回头我可以写出来给你们瞧瞧,要是能记住最好。”

“段老爷,我们又不管驿站驿铺,要记这些做啥子?”

“你爹你娘为何让你们进城念书,还不是指望你们将来能考个功名,能出人头地。要是你们几个争气,将来考上了举人,不但会晓得这些地方,还得去这些地方。”

“为啥要晓得这些地方?”

“因为这是我们四川通往京城的官道,也叫‘北大路’,所有的奏折、公文往来全走‘北大路’,举人老爷想进京赶考得先去成都的学政衙门,然后再从成都走‘北大路’进京。也有些举人老爷走水路,不过相比走‘北大路’的终究是少数。”

“可我叔是从京城回来丁忧的,他为何要走成都?”

“现而今天下不太平,川江水路梗阻,他带着你婶娘和你们的堂弟仕畅回乡,自然要走安全稳妥的‘北大路’。”

“我叔到了成都之后呢?”韩仕通又好奇地问。

“到了成都之后就得走‘东大路’,也就是常说的成渝官道。‘东大路’爷爷我年轻时没少走,从成都东门出发,五里到牛市口,再五里到沙河铺,再十里到黉门铺,再五里到大面铺,再十里到界牌铺,再十里到龙泉驿,再十五里到山泉铺,再十里到柳沟铺,再八里到茶店子,再七里到南山铺,再十五里到石盘铺……

一路向东,途经龙泉驿、简州、资阳、资州、内江、隆昌、荣昌、大足……一直到咱们巴县城,归纳起来就是要经‘两门两关一岗一坳五驿三街五镇九铺’,你们几个要是争气,将来就有机会走这条路去省城考举人。”

韩仕达心想县城都这么热闹,省城一定更热闹,禁不住问:“段老爷,两门是哪两门?”

“两门指通远门、迎晖门,两关指浮图关、老关,一岗指的便是你们老家走马岗,一坳指丁家坳,五驿分别指龙泉驿、南津驿、双凤驿、来凤驿和铜罐驿,三街指杨家街、史家街、迎祥街,五镇指石桥镇、银山镇、椑木镇、李市镇和安福镇,九铺刚才跟你们说过好几个,总而言之,要是每天走七十里,这一趟走下来得半个月。”

“这只是从省城到巴县的!”

“是啊,从京城到省城更远,别看你叔做上了官老爷很威风,让你们这些娃都过上了好日子,其实你叔也不容易。先是千里迢迢进京投供,然后又千里迢迢去江苏赴任,在江苏做了一年多官又被调回直隶,现而今又得千里迢迢回乡丁忧,颠沛流离,风餐露宿,一般人真吃不了这苦啊。”

韩二媳妇本就挺精明的,岂能听不出段吉庆的言外之意,连忙道:“你们几个听见没有,你们能有今天全是沾你叔的光,要是不听先生的话,不好好念书,将来没出息,不光对不起爹娘,更对不起你叔!”
