Chapter 113
Zhou Muqing looked at the familiar scenery in his memory, it turned out that this was the place where the original owner grew up. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
In this quaint and antique city, there are many merchants from the south to the north.
Although Jiaxing is not as prosperous as Yangzhou, it is not far from Yangzhou.
Zhou Muqing took a closer look, and in the street market in Jiaxing, there were many shops selling imported goods.
There are even some people who directly take those foreign items that are not very elaborate and sell them to pedestrians on the street.
The Zhou family's residence in Jiaxing is a wealthy area near the south of the city, a very large and somewhat quaint mansion.
In the early years, Zhou Muqing's grandfather, although Mrs. Zhou was quite an official, he was born poor, but he was very honest as an official.
Even if he became the prince and the prince in his life, he didn't leave much family resources for the family in the end.
And because of the emperor's dismissal, the family property has shrunk by more than half, and those who remain now have also purchased land shops in their hometowns.
And this mansion is also one of the family properties left behind, and it is a rather spectacular five-entry mansion.
Father Zhou, as his only son, naturally owns this house now.
Zhou Muqing and his entourage stopped in front of this mansion, because there is no one in the family who is an official now, so the door of this five-entry house is just like an ordinary rich and noble family, and it is a black oil gate.
The door of the house is now unguarded, and the oily black door is tightly closed, as if to refuse people's entry.
Even the corner gate, which should be guarded and not closed on weekdays, is now closed tightly, and there is no one in sight.
Liu Xianglian looked at the closed door thoughtfully, he had already learned from Jia Lian's mouth about Zhou Muqing's sister and brother.
I thought it was an exaggeration, but I didn't think that the current situation was too much.
You must know that when they set off from Yangzhou City this time, they had already sent someone to Jiaxing a day ago to deliver a letter.
But looking at the current scene, it seems that it is really not very popular.
stabbed Zhou Mufeng on the side with his elbow, but Liu Xianglian said with some ridicule.
"This is your home, and it looks like a rich family. ”
Zhou Mufeng looked at the closed door, although he had already prepared in his heart, he couldn't help but feel a sense of loss.
"It's not my home now!"
The higher the so-called expectations, the greater the disappointment, and I used to always lie to myself in my heart.
thought that his father was just confused for a while, and he and his sister were his biological children!
Didn't he be nice to himself when he was at home before? Those who were good to himself didn't pretend to be good.
Zhou Mufeng raised his chin slightly, and nodded towards the black oil gate of the Zhou Mansion, and the little servant Xiuwen cleverly ran to the door, knocking on the door.
It took a long time for a while to hear a very impatient voice from the room.
"Who? Who?
The shouts of the people inside the door were quite a bit of a scolding of Huai, and when they heard the ears of Zhou Muqing and his party, they tasted other meanings.
Zhou Muqing looked at the closed door, daring to love people had long known that he had arrived in Jiaxing.
But now it's just a matter of giving yourself a dismount, and even a subordinate who guards the door dares to do this, saying some obviously cursing words loudly.
It is conceivable that the current hostess of this mansion is afraid that she has already held all this mansion in her hands.
is also the attitude towards his sister and brother, which is obviously not welcomed.
That Liu Bailian was still unsure of what to do in his heart, cursing his sister and brother. It is estimated that I can't wait in my heart, and there have never been two sisters and brothers.
Zhou Mufeng suppressed the anger in his heart and looked back at his sister.
My sister is now my backbone, and whatever my sister says, I just do it.
Seeing the eyes of his cheap brother, Zhou Muqing also understood what he meant.
Since people don't give face like this, Zhou Muqing also feels that there is no need to take a hot face and stick to other people's cold butts.
According to Aunt Chen, her mother has already been buried, and her sister and brother are just coming back to worship her old man.
If you really have any friendship with the current Zhou family, Zhou Muqing feels that he is very stupid.
Since no one welcomes him now, and he doesn't want to, he has no intention of staying here for a long time.
Directly instruct people to go to the bazaar, find a relatively empty inn, and stay in the inn by yourself!
So what does it matter? It's just a matter of spending more money, something that can be solved with money, then it's not a problem.
When he turned around, he was about to order the group to go back, but because of such a large group of people in front of the Zhou Mansion, it took a while.
But there are some good people who are already pointing around, guessing the identity of their group?
However, Liu Xianglian seemed to understand what Zhou Mu meant, and she was in the mood to talk and laugh with those people.
"We are here in this house, the eldest lady and the eldest young master under the knee of the original wife.
Because I went to the capital to meet my aunt and uncle, but now I heard the news of my mother's death.
I never thought that now I rushed back in such a hurry, and I found someone to report to the house the day before. I never thought that I couldn't even enter the door now. ”
People's imagination is unlimited, not to mention these ordinary people, who are already quite curious about the affairs of wealthy families.
Passerby A: "Could it be that the wife in this house did not die naturally, but caused harm?"
Passerby B: Don't say it, it's really possible. I have long heard that the lord in this house spoils his concubine and kills his wife......
Passerby C: Master Zhou and his wife in this house are quite affectionate, didn't they go out with their wives a few days ago?
Everyone looked at passers-by with disdain.
Passerby A said kindly.
"Listening to what you said, you must not be a local, right? As long as you are a local, you know that just two months ago, this week's old man's wife had another person.
I heard that the original Mrs. Zhou still died of self-immolation, and this person's bones are not cold, so Master Zhou can't wait to straighten out his beloved aunt?
A few days ago, if he went out with someone, he must be the wife of this little concubine. ”
Everyone was talking about it here, but Zhou Muqing and his party were already in a position to leave.
At this time, the gate of the Zhou Mansion slowly opened from the inside, and a group of people walked out surrounded by a luxuriously dressed woman.
