Chapter 288: Linhuai Marquis Mansion

Xicheng Gonghou Street, famous in the capital, the street is as its name, there are only five or six in total who live on this street, but it occupies the entire long street of several miles, these three or five are the famous prince's house in the capital, the most famous is the Wei State Mansion, the founding Mansion and the Linhuai Marquis Mansion, the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion, the Lingbi Marquis Mansion.

In order to change the unfavorable position, these princes' families in addition to the civil official line from the military reform, each other has also strengthened the marriage to expand the influence, the princes on the prince street are also related to the existence of relatives, all kinds of relationships are intertwined, on the whole, the effect is not bad, and now the status is still out of reach of ordinary people.

The Linhuai Hou Mansion on Gonghou Street has been more lively these days, because the birthday of the old lady of the Hou Mansion is approaching, and the Hou Mansion is busy preparing for the old lady's birthday. Of course, the main force of the busy people is the subordinates, and the masters are still all kinds of relaxed, for example, Li Erye is now busy making people and making games on a certain maid.

In the Peony Zhai of the Linhuai Hou Mansion, several young ladies who are like flowers and jade are laughing and chatting under the service of the maid. The young ladies were also about thirteen or thirteen years old, and they were about to leave the cabinet, and they were gathering together to laugh at this time.

"I heard that the fifth sister of the third uncle's family is coming today."

"I don't know what the third uncle thinks, for a wild woman, he actually ran to the foot of the mountain to eat ashes"

"The third sister should pay attention to proportion, what a wild woman, that's the third aunt."

"Second sister, what kind of third aunt is she, the old grandmother has never admitted it. Our family has never been hired, but the third uncle is really good enough to her. It's just a pity that she was blessed and went early. ”

"Fifth sister is here today. Then I will pack up the jewelry I eliminated last year and give it to my fifth sister as a gift. ”

"I think you should keep it for reward, the fifth sister is a high-spirited person."

"I think the sixth sister is right, the fifth sister of the third uncle's family, but a country man, seeing the gift of the sixth sister, can not be happy like anything."

"Giggles, I heard, the fifth sister, she was married to a poor boy who was digging in the dirt in the countryside."

"It's really fake, the arrogant fifth sister is going to marry a bun. Laughing to death, even the maids around me will be pointed out to the yamen officials, the fifth sister actually giggles"

"How can there be a fake, the old grandmother is angry, the eldest aunt finally helped the fifth sister find a good family, that is the son of the founding duchess's mother's family, kindly said with the third uncle, but how do you know that within a few days, the fifth sister promised to give a country bun, and taught the eldest aunt to be so faceless in front of the founding duchess. Even my grandmother was so angry that she hadn't eaten for two days. ”

"The fifth brother-in-law turned out to be a dirt bun"

Several young ladies chattered and laughed, and when they talked about the five sisters in their mouths, they were all smiling, but they were just smiling with contempt. When he was laughing, a little maid came in from the second gate, and replied to a few young ladies that the carriage of the third old man's family had arrived at Gonghou Street.

"Say Cao Cao, Cao Cao will arrive. It's really a coincidence that the fifth sister is here, and we just said that she has arrived, let's go. Let's go to the door and take a look. ”

"Country, what's there to see."

"Third sister. How to speak, they are all their own sisters. It is not easy for the fifth sister to come all the way from the countryside. Let's welcome it. ”

"I'm going too, I haven't seen the fifth sister for several years."

"Let's go, maybe, the soil buns that the fifth sister Xu matched are also coming, and I haven't seen what the soil buns look like."

The young ladies reached an agreement after talking for a while, and walked along the verandah, past the weeping flower gate, and went to the gate under the support of the old mother and maid.

On Gonghou Street, several big carriages slowly came, followed by more than ten healthy servants before and after the carriage, and there were many old mothers and maids, all of whom followed the carriage in a regular manner, and followed the carriage without squinting.

When he was about to reach Gonghou Street, Li Shu drove Zhu Ping'an to another carriage, which was also to avoid suspicion, and the men and women in Daming were not kissed, although Li Shu and Zhu Ping'an were engaged, but they still had to avoid suspicion. Men and women riding in the same carriage will be chewed on their tongues, so Li Shu drove Zhu Ping'an to another carriage.

After Zhu Ping'an changed the carriage, it didn't take long for him to feel that the carriage had stopped, and there was a lot of noise in front of him.

"Uncle, we're here, get out of the car." Outside the carriage came the sound of a small servant.

"Okay."

Zhu Ping'an answered, then lifted the car door and got out of the carriage with his body arched. As soon as I got off the carriage, I saw the huge Linhuai Marquis Mansion.

Looking at the Linhuai Marquis Mansion in front of him, for a while, Zhu Ping'an really didn't know what the arrogant thing was, the Linhuai Marquis Mansion in front of him was huge in scale and extraordinary. Of course, the Wei Mansion and other mansions that I saw just now are all the same and grand-scale.

Gonghou Street is about three meters wide, very wide, and the street is very straight, even eight large sedan chairs can easily crisscross this street. But compared to the Linhuai Hou Mansion, this street is dwarfed, if the Linhuai Hou Mansion is a python, then this Gonghou Street is just an earthworm.

The Linhuai Hou Mansion is located on Gonghou Street, and in terms of appearance alone, the Linhuai Hou Mansion highlights a large character. In front of the main entrance, there are two one-person-high stone lions, which are realistic and lifelike. There is also a plaque hanging on the gate of the Linhuai Marquis Mansion, and the plaque reads "Linhuai Marquis Mansion" four gilded characters.

Soon after the carriage stopped, I saw that the Linhuai Marquis Mansion opened the door, but it was not the main gate, but the east and west corner side doors next to the main gate.

The side door opened wide, and several gorgeously dressed women came out of it, the leader was a woman in her twenties, and behind them were some little maids who were dressed more uniformly.

"This is Miss Five, but she is really a Peugeot person, and the slaves and maids are all moved. The slave maid said hello to the fifth lady. I am the eldest girl Zijuan next to the old lady, and the old lady only fell asleep after eating wine, and ordered the slave maid to pick up the fifth lady before going to bed. The yard where the third master used to live was cleaned up, and the things were all just purchased, just waiting for the fifth lady to come. ”

The woman in the lead claimed to be the big girl Zijuan next to the old lady, and she bent down to say hello in front of Li Shu with a smile on her face.

"It's such a misfortune that Shu'er originally wanted to go to her grandmother's old man's house to say hello first." Li Shu made a pity look, and Cherry sighed.

"Miss has been tired all the way, still thinking about the old lady, it is really sincere and filial, but the old lady has already fallen asleep, and when the old lady wakes up, the slave must convey the young lady's filial piety to the old lady."

The girl named Zijuan is very good at talking, and the simple greetings are very comfortable to listen to. (To be continued......)
