Chapter 346: Burning the Qin and Cooking the Goose
At the end of July, Yuxiu and his party finally arrived in the capital.
The walls of the capital are towering, and the gates of the city are flowing in and out endlessly. The people who were waiting to enter the city at the gate of the city stood in a row, and Yuliang saw that there were many people, and he didn't know if he could enter the city today.
The three of them sat in four carriages, which was quite eye-catching. A few people crowded over at the city gate, it was actually Ding Sanye and Luo An, and a few entourages.
Luo An saw Qian Chang and Zhong Youxing, and came over with Ding Sanye, "You guys have finally arrived?" ”
It turned out that when Zhou Ming sent someone back to Beijing to deliver the letter, he specially instructed that the three Yuxiu sisters and brothers should enter Beijing. After Li Chengyun heard what Luo An said, he counted the days, and sent Ding Sanye to wait at the gate of the capital these days.
With them following, the defenders at the city gate let them go directly, and the three of Yuxiu didn't have to wait.
The Yan family had already arranged for someone to buy a house in the capital, which was in the Gonggu Alley on the west street of the capital, a courtyard with two entrances.
Mu Hai called the door in front of him, and when he heard that the lady and Lang Jun had arrived, the people inside hurriedly opened the door.
Ding Sanye and Luo An took people and sent the three Yuxiu sisters and brothers all the way here before saying goodbye.
Yuliang thanked them solemnly, and said that he would go to see the eldest prince when he was settled. Ding Sanye agreed with a smile, praising Yuliang for becoming more and more sophisticated. He wanted to hurry back to recover his life, but Luo An said by Zhou Ming that he had to help the Yan family sisters and brothers settle down.
So he stayed behind to help carry the things.
Finally arrived home, Yuxiu pulled Yushu with one hand and Yuliang with the other, and walked into the mansion.
The house is said to have been bought from a wealthy merchant who was originally doing business in the capital, but this year they wanted to move their family back to their hometown because of something in their hometown, thinking that they would not return to Beijing, so they took it out and sold it.
As soon as you enter the door and bypass the wall, you will see a magnolia and a golden cinnamon, both of which are luxuriant, implying that the house is full of gold and jade.
There is a living room in the first courtyard, a patio behind it, three main rooms, and wings on the left and right. A small door leads through the backyard and there is a small garden.
There is also a ginkgo tree planted in this garden, looking at the height, it has been some years. It should be fruitful in a year.
There are flowers and trees in the small garden, and Yushu sees that there is also a clump of bamboo, "Sister, this bamboo, we can also dig bamboo shoots and eat it, right?" ”
"This kind of bamboo is not good, we will change Lei Gong bamboo when we go back." Yuxiu looked at the bamboo and knew that it was just for people to see.
"There's open space here, let's grow some food." Yushu saw that there was still vacant space against the wall in the garden, and felt that she could grow some vegetables, "I still have to buy it if I save it." Sister, I heard that things in the capital are valuable. ”
"Okay, let's buy some seeds, and we can also plant some green onions and so on."
The two sisters discussed the matter of planting vegetables, Luo An twitched the corners of his mouth in the back, growing vegetables in the garden, the two ladies of the Yan family are really - too frugal.
No wonder the prince sent a letter asking him to collect all his money and save it.
Yuxiu and Yushu didn't know what Luo An was thinking, and after discussing it for a while, they directly sent someone out to buy seeds.
There are two small courtyards in the east and west courtyards in the backyard, Yuxiu and Yushu live in the west courtyard, and Yuliang settles in the east courtyard.
After being busy and finally settling down, Luo An was relieved to leave.
Yuliang was ordered to enter Beijing, looking for a good file from the Ministry of Rites, and the three Yuxiu sisters and brothers thought about resting at home for a few days before going out.
Liu Wu's injury was much better, and she couldn't be idle, so she went out with Mu Hai the next day to see the business of the store in the capital, thinking about opening the shop as soon as possible.
The next day, Yuxiu and Yushu were idle, so they simply changed into coarse cloth clothes and went to the garden to plant vegetables with a small medicine hoe. Yuliang helped carry water.
The two maids had never planted the land and couldn't help, so Yuxiu sent them to wash their clothes.
Qian Chang and Zhong Youxing were still injured, and Yuxiu asked them to go to the back to rest first.
The three siblings were busy with their work, when they heard two coughs from the small door, and when they looked up, they saw two young men standing there.
The first one was wearing a silver flower python suit, a jade belt around his waist, and his face was elegant, but it was actually Li Chengyun.
Standing a step behind him, there was also a Sven young man, wearing a white robe with a round neck and embroidered bamboo patterns, and it turned out to be Xie Huiling.
I haven't seen him for a few years since Mingzhou said goodbye. Xie Huiling grew taller, but his eyebrows and eyes did not change much.
Yuxiu called out in surprise, "Big Prince, Master Xie" and quickly stood up.
"What are you busy with?" Lee Seung-yoon walked in with a smile, "We called the door outside for a long time and no one answered, and when we saw that the door was open again, we walked in by ourselves." ”
Both of them are tall and thin, looking polite and polite, if the difference is that Li Chengyun is a little more cold and frosty if he doesn't laugh, but Xie Huiling is gentle and kind.
The two walked up to the Yuxiu siblings and looked curiously at the pits dug in the ground. When I looked at it again, there were still flowers on the ground that they had dug up.
"You guys are so decent, why did you dig up the flowers?"
"Eldest son, hello Senior Brother Xie, we are planning to grow vegetables here." Yuliang heard that it was Xie Huiling, and felt a little kind, Li Chengyun and their brother and sister were already familiar with each other, so he immediately introduced, "These flowers can't be eaten, and they don't look good, they are all leaves, and they don't even have flowers." ”
Yuliang pointed to the clumps of green grass on the ground in disgust, "We plan to plant some green onions and vegetables." Now sprinkle the small rape and you will be able to eat it in a few days. ”
Xie Huiling looked at the few orchids on the ground that were growing well, and couldn't help laughing, "Little junior brother, you ...... You are really burning the harp and boiling the crane. ”
"The world is big, and the food is the biggest." Yuliang retorted unconvinced.
Li Chengyun also laughed, these three sisters and brothers, he turned his head to see Yuxiu standing on the side with a smile, "Xiuxiu, you also follow your younger brothers and sisters to grow vegetables?" ”
"We are originally planting, flowers and plants, and the front yard is enough for the guests to see. Here in the backyard, it's still realistic. Yuxiu said, took a towel and wiped her hands, "The eldest prince and Xie Gongzi don't know, firewood, rice, oil and salt in this capital all cost money, and they need money when they go out of the door." Don't look at such a vegetable garden, there are only a few taels of silver left in a month. ”
"That is, Mr. said, from thrift to luxury. There are a lot of savings every day. Yuliang interjected on the side.
When Xie Huiling heard the words of the sister and brother, his heart moved, but he nodded approvingly.
Yushu has been looking at him in surprise since Lee Seung-yoon came in.
"Why doesn't Shu'er speak, she doesn't know me?" Lee Seung-yoon couldn't help but tease her.
"Eldest son, is your leg really good? It's great to be able to go, God forbid! ”
When Yushu mentioned this, Yuxiu and Yuliang also took a few closer looks, and congratulated them repeatedly.
Li Chengyun responded with a smile, only saying that the divine doctor invited at that time had good medical skills, and he was cured.
He also said that he often goes to Chengwangfu to visit his aunt now, so that the Yuxiu sisters and brothers don't have to go to Jingwangfu to visit, "In a few days, when the Holy Birthday Festival comes, my mother will also come to Beijing." When you come to the house now, you will inevitably be negligent in your hospitality. ”
