Chapter 327, Jiangnan (2)
"It's finally here" Dieyu jumped out of the sedan chair first, with a burst of joy in her heart, but she closed her eyes and took a deep breath of the warm and fresh air that she was very familiar with in the water town in the south of the Yangtze River, and got off the sedan chair first, thinking that she would be able to reunite with her parents soon, and she had a strong expectation in her heart.

"Miss, this scenery in the south of the Yangtze River is really beautiful, no wonder others often say that fireworks go down to Yangzhou in March, and now it is just March, but this scenery is already beautiful" Dong'er also followed her own lady out of the sedan chair, but the scenery in front of her made her a little amazing, she was sold to the capital as a slave since she was a child, and has always only seen the cold weather and some monotonous scenery in the north.
"So it's worth it to follow Miss Ben all the way, don't worry, Dong'er, as long as you follow me, I will definitely take you to travel the whole Jiangnan."
"Thank you" Wen Ruyan took advantage of the fact that Dieyu and Dong'er had not yet reacted, but she walked quickly in front of the coachman and gave him a few pieces of loose silver to take the account.
"It's Jiangnan right from here, and the little ones still have something to do, so I'll send you here," the coachman bowed to them politely.
"Hard work" Several people took off the carriage with their luggage, lined up in a row and thanked the horseman, and stepped into the land south of the Yangtze River one after another.
"Miss Dieyu, I don't know anything about the southern water towns in the south of the Yangtze River, customs and culture, and I hope you can be a guide, don't leave me alone" The gentle tone was a little coquettish, but he grabbed the sleeve of Dieyu in front of him and shook it vigorously, the pitiful look seemed to be afraid that Dieyu would throw him on the street and sleep on the road, so that Dieyu couldn't help laughing out loud, it seems that this arrogant and unruly, the rich boy who is not afraid of anything will also be afraid.
"Don't worry, today you can find a home that you think is pleasing to the eye of the inn to live in, I want to go home first, and come out to find you another day, take you on a trip" Dieyu waved away his hand that grabbed his sleeve, but there was a bit of helpless smile on his face, this Wen Ruyan was obviously tall and graceful, but the person was stubborn and cute, such a contrast is really rare.
"Okay," Wen Ruyan replied helplessly, but thinking that he could be alone with Dieyu these days, wouldn't it be better if he could find an opportunity to live in her house?
"Miss, why are there all kinds of flowers in front of every house here?" The sharp-eyed Dong'er and Dieyu walked on the wide road together, but at a glance, there were all kinds of brightly colored flowers on both sides of the road, exuding a faint and rich floral fragrance, which made her look left and right with some excitement, obviously it was the first time she had seen such a delicate decoration.
"I used to listen to the black ...... I heard that the ninth prince said that this period of time happened to be the day when the emperor went down to the south of the Yangtze River and went to the West Lake to go boating and listen to the music and enjoy the fireworks, so it should be to welcome his arrival" Dieyu carefully looked at those flowers, mainly the big yellow chrysanthemums used by the palace, so he replied to Dong'er.
"Miss Dieyu, what is the food culture in the south of the Yangtze River? Why is this building different from that in the capital? When will this fireworks be held? Are these gardens with different styles designed by yourself?......" When Dong'er finished asking, Wen Ruyan was unrelentingly entangled, and as if she regarded Dieyu as an encyclopedia, she asked one question after another, making Dieyu dizzy and feeling that her head was too big......
When Dieyu took Dong'er to finally get rid of the Wen Ruyan's various obstacles, all kinds of splashing and rolling, the two finally returned to the front of the house in the evening, it was a lush courtyard, from the outside of the round ebony window to see the inside, inside is a piece of birds and flowers, the yard is full of all kinds of flowers, there is also gurgling water around the wall, is a typical Suzhou garden design.
"Huiyin Garden" Dong'er looked at the three words on the tall and simple plaque and read it softly, but there was a faint light in her eyes that she didn't understand its meaning, although she read a few words when she was a child, but she didn't know anything about these ancient poems and ancient words.
"This name was given by my father, it was originally called Qia Yinyuan, my father has been in business for half his life and has long been tired of dusty chores, thinking that when I get married, I will retire and live here in seclusion" Dieyu smiled lightly at Dong'er, who looked puzzled, but walked straight to the rustic ebony door, buckled the lion's head copper ring lock on the door with his hand, and soon heard the sound of footsteps.
"Squeak" As the door was opened, the person who came out to open the door was a middle-aged man about forty years old, with a short beard, dressed in a simple blue dress, a pair of sharp eyes full of kindness, but not much different from Dieyu's eyes, it was obvious that this was Dieyu's father, Xiao Honglin.
"Yu'er, are you back?" The middle-aged man stood in place, squinting his eyes and looking at him in a trance for a long time, not daring to recognize it, until he saw Dieyu smile heartily at him, revealing an almost faint half of the pear vortex at the corner of his mouth, he confirmed that the familiar smile was obviously his daughter.
"Father, it's me, it's your Yu'er, you're not mistaken" Seeing that his father was still as tough as before, Dieyu breathed a sigh of relief, but she snickered in her heart and threw herself over and hugged him, I haven't seen him for a long time, but there are faint tears in my eyes.
"Father, it's the daughter who is not filial, she hasn't said goodbye for so long, and there is no news, so you and your mother are worried about me" Dieyu let go of her father, but she almost wanted to cry in his happy smile, who would have thought that she would go to the banquet with her father that day, but on the way, she was intercepted directly back to the house by the black wolf of the Nine Princes who thought she was not interested in herself, and she was not allowed to come back.
"Yu'er, it's good to be back, it's good to be back, you come in quickly, your mother didn't reply when she saw that she had written so many letters to you, and thought that you had encountered an accident, and she was so anxious that she didn't think about tea and dinner every day" Xiao Honglin, who had a loving face, hurriedly grabbed his daughter's hand and was about to take it to the house, but he caught the round-faced maid behind Dieyu, and when he saw her face, he asked, "Where did you come from, why did you follow my Yu'er home?"
Dong'er smiled sweetly at Dieyu's father, but subconsciously replied, "Master, my name is Dong'er, and I am the maid of the Nine Princes' Mansion."
"Dong'er!" Dieyu yelled at her sternly, wanting to stop her, but signaled her not to say that she had leaked her mouth, but she still said it directly, which made her feel helpless again.
"Nine Princes' Mansion?" Xiao Honglin heard this, but immediately frowned, the Nine Princes held a lot of power, and they turned their hands into rain in today's court, and they were even favored by the emperor, and they had nothing to do with ordinary merchants like them with low status?
"Hehe, no, father, Dong'er is dizzy after sitting in the car for a long time and talking nonsense" Dieyu was busy and pulled her father away with a smile and entered the mansion, but she turned her head to Dong'er and glanced at her a few more times, signaling her not to talk nonsense in the future, the round-faced Dong'er had to stick out her tongue apologetically, after all, she was still too young, and many things blurted out without thinking, and she must change it in the future.
