Daihou Mansion

A half-used ox cart stopped in front of the Wanglufang Daihou Mansion, and in this area, there were all high-ranking families nearby, and the officers and soldiers patrolling one after another, were heavily guarded.

The handlebar type is to pick up the scattered work, and when I saw it, I was scared for three points, took the woman's car money, and left quickly.

The woman was dressed in a muslin cotton dress, with a light blue skirt underneath, black hair, only a silver hairpin pinned, white skin, although she did not look like a lady of a rich family, and her arm was wrapped in a coarse cloth, but it was very clean and tidy.

After paying for the car, she didn't care about the driver driving away, just stood in front of the mansion, looked up at the Daihou Mansion, and there was a trace of hesitation on her face.

During the wait-and-see, two more ox carts stopped one after the other, and a few children got down from the front carts, and were led into this mansion.

The next car got down, and there was a doctor with a medicine boy, the medicine boy was about ten years old, carrying a medicine box, the doctor looked like he was in his fifties, his hair was gray, and when he walked by her, the smell of perennial soaking in the smell of medicinal herbs also penetrated into her nose.

"Could it be that someone is sick?"

This speculation made the woman's face hesitate, and as soon as she gritted her teeth, she walked directly up the steps, and was about to explain her intention to the two porters, when she was seen by a woman who came out.

As soon as she saw her, she immediately said, "Here, come in and work, everyone is busy, can't be in a daze!"

"After looking at the house, I have time to watch, and after taking the salary of the master's family, I have to repay the service, and I can't eat dry food!"

The strange thing is that the two porters at the door did not stop it, although the woman felt that she might have recognized the wrong person, because she was intimidated by the momentum of this high door, she was pulled in by the woman in a daze.

Wait for the door, walk along the corridor a few inches above the ground, turn over a rockery pond, see the main room is small and chic, from time to time you can see the bird cage, although most of it is empty, a few have been hung with parrots, thrushes, but also feel that this should not be the place to come, the whole person is nervous.

But as she was pointed out by her mother-in-law, she walked to a courtyard in a daze, and when she saw the scene in the courtyard, her original impression of the Daihou Mansion was suddenly replaced by the liveliness of the mansion.

As far as she could see, the windows and doors of the houses were open, as if they were ventilating, and there were young women dressed like her, who were cleaning with hot water basins or rags in their hands.

Walking further in, you can see an open door, there are several women, how old they are, talking and laughing in tailoring, because there is a brazier in the house, and the sun is just right today, so they don't mind opening the door to let the cold wind blow in, all of them show smiling faces, with joy between their eyebrows and eyes.

The woman was infected by this atmosphere, and subconsciously curled her lips, and then saw that the doctor who had just entered the mansion actually gave a group of children a pulse in turn and checked their bodies.

The aroma of food in the air is sugar-hearted pancakes, which are very sweet, and the woman looks at it timidly, a little annoyed that she came in in a daze, and then explains to people that she was brought in by the wrong person, will she be reprimanded?

Just now, the mother-in-law brought her in, pointed out the courtyard to her, and went to work on something else, but what she came here for, the woman herself knew, and it was obvious that the mother-in-law had mistaken herself for someone else.

Just as he didn't know what to do, a few maids came out of the corner of the corridor not far away, and they were surrounded by a noble girl, and in a moment they came closer.

It seemed that seeing that she was standing there timidly and at a loss, the noble girl stopped and asked gently, "This sister, but she came alone?"

When I got closer, I realized that this noble girl was actually very young, she still looked like a girl, and she was still immature, just looking at the dress, but she was married, and she was obviously the lady of the mansion. ”

"Looking for someone?" Ye Buregret originally learned that a doctor came to check the health of the family members of these newly moved old people from the East Palace today, so he came to take a look, but he happened to meet this woman, but her answer made Ye Buregret slightly stunned.

"Which old family are you from the East Palace?"

Donggong?Axiu trembled in her heart, and hurriedly replied: "The folk woman is not the old person of the East Palace, the folk woman and the folk woman heard that Zeng Nianzhen came to vote for Master Su...... No, Master Hou, so I deliberately inquired about coming to the Hou Mansion to find Zeng Nianzhen. ”

Come to find Zeng Nianzhen's woman?

Ye Buregret was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Mr. Zeng is indeed in the mansion, but at this time he is outside, you are in the mansion for a while, I will ask him to come back." ”

As he spoke, he said to a mother-in-law beside him: "Go to the front yard and ask who knows where Mr. Zeng went, and then you go to look for it, and say that a girl named Ah Xiu came to him and asked what was going on." ”

"Yes. The mother-in-law took the order and went to the front.

Ye Buregret said to this Ah Xiu: "Look at your dusty appearance, you came to Beijing from other places?"

Ah Xiu's face turned red, lowered her head, and said a little embarrassed: "Yes, the woman was ...... that day On the same day, I learned that he rushed to the capital and came to join the Hou Ye, so he also asked for the address from the brother who brought the letter for him, followed the familiar caravan, all the way to the capital, entered the capital, and first went to Peach Blossom Lane, where he heard that the Hou Ye had moved, so he immediately rushed over. ”

This is obviously the rhythm of chasing her husband for thousands of miles, this is Zeng Nianzhen's peach blossom debt?

Ye Buregret heard this, where did he not understand what was going on?

Looking at the woman in front of her, although she is already in her twenties, she is still a girl, with an unmarried beard, and her temperament is also very gentle, but there is a kind of tenacity in the gentleness, which makes her like it.

As for what is going on between this woman and Zeng Nianzhen, we have to wait for Zeng Nianzhen to come back to know.

Zeng Nian is really a person that her husband attaches great importance to, so Ye Buregret took her to the side room, and asked people to serve tea and snacks, talk with her, and wait for a reply.

Juyuan Building at noon

This wine shop was originally Lin Yuqing's industry, Lin Yuqing fell, the industry was divided, and it was given to Su Zi by the little marquis.

The location is good, built near the water, the capital building is not high, only three floors, but the area is not small, the first floor is quite lively, the second and third floors set up a private seat, the screen is separated, and the third floor is a private room, facing the lake and facing the window, on a few dishes, looking at the snowflakes outside, Zeng Nian really listened to the lord.

"Ben Hou is not greedy, if he is in the capital, it is enough to open three or five more, and no matter how much he does, he can't hold it. Su Ziji's voice was very clear.

"Lord, but there are a lot of restaurants in the capital, and Lin Yuqing spent a lot of effort in Juyuanlou back then, digging up some cooks, but there was turmoil in the front, so he still walked a few. ”

"Although there is a little profit now, it can't be outstanding, and it is very risky to open a branch again. "The wild Dao people are a little worried, now the Hou Mansion is spending a lot, he is the principal, and he has to think about it.
