Chapter 1083: Arriving in the capital
"Why?" Shen Jiading's face was full of puzzlement, and his good-looking white cheeks seemed to be translucent under the sun, "I said that I would definitely repay you for saving my life, but the fourth sister thinks of me?" ”
Shen Nanzhi laughed a little angrily, and couldn't help but say, "You are the little prince of An, what do I have to dislike you?" It's just that our wife doesn't like to be noisy, An Xiaowang is a celebrity in the capital, if there is any movement, it will definitely be a response, if it really lets people know that we helped you on the road, I am afraid that the Shen Mansion will be stepped on the threshold because of the little prince! ”
Although the words were exaggerated, but fortunately, Shen Jiading was still very useful, I saw him tilt his head and think for a moment, and then nodded with a smile: "I know, I know, I won't go out and talk nonsense!" Anyway, we all went to Beijing and had time to meet, and I will slowly repay this kindness in the future! ”
In fact, Shen Nanzhi wanted to say that he didn't have to take it to heart, but he didn't want to ask Shen Jiading to think about anything more, so he nodded with a smile and said goodbye to An Xiaowangye.
The two of them walked, and their footsteps were naturally much faster than those of this large family. Just after walking the waterway for a month, the group immediately got into the carriage again, this time even Shen Nanzhi couldn't hold on, and she couldn't help but vomit the sour water all the way after running for many days.
Fortunately, after arriving at the ferry, it is an official road all the way, and the official road is flat and wide, which saves a lot of trouble. As soon as I arrived at the gate of the capital, I saw the servants of the Shen family waiting outside, and the group changed to the frame of the Shen Mansion, which was more comfortable than the outside.
Shen Yao didn't rest today, so he didn't go to the city gate to greet him. Shen Nanzhi didn't care, and looked out curiously from the window all the way, and the capital was really prosperous! Suzhou can't compare to here. She turned her head to look at Shi Shi on the side, although she worked hard all the way, fortunately her condition did not worsen. It's just surprising that Shi Shi also gently lifted the curtain and looked faintly at the scenery outside the window from the narrow gap.
The fundus of the eyes is a complex emotion, longing, satisfaction, sadness, indifference......
All this in her eyes is the breeze condensed in the first half of her glorious life.
The location of the Shen Mansion is in the center of the capital, but because the Shen family does not have a title, it is not qualified to live in a place close to the imperial city, but the new Shen Mansion is extremely magnificent, and as soon as it passes through an alley, the servants outside say that they have reached the boundary of the Shen family.
Shen Nanzhi looked at the fence on the side of the road, and on the other side of the fence was their home.
Shen Yao and his sister-in-law were already waiting at the door, and the carriage was about to stop, and the two rushed up. After being separated for so long, several people actually had some hot eyes. Shen Yao grew a beard, and Shen Nanzhi couldn't help but smile secretly-he was more like an official!
"Mother has had a hard journey! But fortunately, he came back safely! Shen Yao stepped forward, and after talking to Shi, he patted Shen Nanzhi's head again, "Your housekeeper has worked hard these days. ”
Shen Nanzhi blessed his sister-in-law: "Fortunately, it's here!" If I don't come again, I'm going to be exhausted, and I really know how difficult it is for my sister-in-law to be in charge of the house! ”
After speaking, without waiting for anyone to say anything, Shen Yao's children had already jumped out of the carriage one by one and threw themselves into the arms of their parents, and a bunch of people were chattering around the door, which provoked the people passing by to take a few more looks.
Shi Shi was also happy, and a flower appeared on his face, "Yi Xiaoniang in your house gave birth to a big fat boy, go and take a look!" ”
Hearing this, Shen Yao remembered her, looked up and found Yi Xiaoniang who was waiting quietly with the child in her arms at the outermost of the crowd, walked over with three steps and two steps, and took a closer look at the little fat man in the swaddling clothes, and then smiled gently: "You have worked hard, but you have to run around like this just after giving birth to a child, and you can rest in the mansion in the future!" ”
Yi Xiaoniang's eyes were red, and she was busy and blessed with a low blessing.
As she spoke, the sister-in-law had already beckoned everyone to go in together.
The Shen Mansion in Xinli is a big mansion with four entrances and four exits, which is more magnificent than the mansion in Suzhou. These days, Shen Yao and his wife have already cleaned up one by one, and they still live in the west. There is a most magnificent courtyard in the north, which is still reserved for the Shi family to live in, and according to her meaning, it is still called Chaoxi Ju.
Shen Nanzhi's place is not far from Shi's, and her sister-in-law wants her to go to the yard by herself, Shen Nanzhi is the most lazy, so she can simply call it "Anyuan".
For the rest, Shen Yao split a study called Jiu Si Zhai, sister-in-law took Zhixia and Si Feng to live in Diexi Residence, Yi Xiaoniang took Zhiyue and Si Cheng in Hsinchu Courtyard, and Rong Xiaoniang and Zhiwei, as well as Xiao Liulang, who didn't have time to choose a name, lived in Anle Ju.
In addition to these, there is also a small open place in the Shen Mansion, as Shen Yao said, when the third brother Shen Yu enters Beijing as an official, he can live in those houses in the east.
Shen Nanzhi looked at his Xin'an Garden, which is much more spacious than Suzhou's, and there is a small flower garden in the yard.
A few little girls stood in the courtyard waiting for the master to speak, but the courtyard was even more empty.
Shen Nanzhi sat in front, sniffed the dry air of the capital, and said: "We will live here in the future, these days we will first take care of the things in our yard, and the things brought from Suzhou have been registered and placed one by one. ”
"Don't worry, girl!" Lilac took the lead and said, "None of us dare to be the slightest bit lazy, and the accounts of these days that you ordered were also sent to the young grandmother, who praised the girl's ability, and even praised the slaves and maids!" ”
Since she lives with her sister-in-law, she naturally doesn't need to handle the housekeeper's affairs, and sending all the accounts to her sister-in-law also shows Shen Nanzhi's determination not to interfere too much.
Shen Nanzhi nodded with a smile, and gave everyone a few taels of silver as a reward, and then dismissed to do things.
The day passed very quickly, and the Shen family was busy settling down, and it was quiet at night.
Shen Nanzhi silently turned around the courtyard, and the palace lamp under the eaves hung under the bright moonlight, projected on the mirror-like bluestone steps like ink stains. The night in the capital seemed to be quieter than in Suzhou, and she listened to her breathing and walked and stopped under the moon, until she heard the voice of Juan Bi on the front page softly: "Girl, why don't you go to sleep yet?" ”
Shen Nanzhi smiled and retreated to his house.
It turns out that this is the legendary capital. I don't know what I will face tomorrow or in the future. It's just a strange place, which always makes her a little uneasy.
She lay on the bed, couldn't help but reach out and rubbed the jade pendant on the side of the pillow, and then fell asleep deeply.
