Chapter 60: Anping Xu's Family (1)
Anping, Raoyang, Shenxian three rich towns, plus some small towns and villages around, is her mother Min Yuan eldest princess Tang Muyi, every year the tax is not handed over to the imperial court, but directly handed over to the eldest princess, for her food and clothing, hence the name Tang Muyi. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Although Anping is also rich, it is still much quieter than the bustling capital. She looked at the somewhat familiar street, and couldn't help but feel her heart fluctuate. When she came here in her previous life, she had just had a miscarriage and had no intention of admiring this place, only thinking about visiting a few more temples and praying for her blessed child who was born without blessing, because she couldn't even remember what Anping looked like.
This time, although he came again with bruises, his mood was completely different. For everything in the future, she is so expectant, but she is also very nervous, thanks to the predictability of reliving a life, but the road ahead is still full of thorns, and now she is not sure that she can let the Xue family retreat in this big whirlpool......
She smiled and shook her head, laughing at herself for her cowardice. In her previous life, for her character, her mother repeatedly exhorted her to change her ways, but she felt that it was good to live without fighting or grabbing, but when the Xue family disaster was approaching, she did not have the ability and courage to fight, and she regretted it in her heart.
With treasures, if you don't compete with others, others will also look at you and make stumbling blocks in the open and in the dark. It's okay not to want to intrigue, but at least you must have a strong ability to protect yourself, and when others make a move, you must be able to fight back forcefully, instead of watching timidly and doing nothing.
"Get out of the car. After Bai Mingyuan finished talking to the shopkeeper, he walked over and said with a smile.
She was stunned for a moment, looked at the sun, it was just noon, there was no need to rest now.
"Look at your haggard appearance and crumpled clothes, you plan to meet your mother like this?" Bai Mingyuan rarely squeezed her.
She blushed and looked at her green shirt. She climbed over the wall in this dress, was beaten, and it was tiring for a long time, and it was admittedly a little out of shape.
She nodded, and no longer insisted, deciding to go into the hotel to change clothes and wash up.
Bai Mingyuan carefully helped her out of the car, and after taking her to the room, he also went to another room to change clothes. Although he is not the protagonist, he may also meet some big people, so it is not good to be rude.
Yiying sat in the carriage for a day, although she was a little tired, but fortunately, the brocade mat was soft and thick, and the injuries on her body did not seem to be aggravated.
But despite this, it is still a little difficult to get dressed. Bai Mingyuan was still a teenager after all, he didn't think about it so thoroughly, and he didn't find someone to help her change her clothes.
She tossed for a while before putting on the rose-red Hunan skirt that Qin had put in the bag, leaned on the bed and washed her face with clean water, and combed a flying fairy bun with difficulty before it was over.
She looked in the mirror, and the bright color of the dress suppressed her sickness a lot, and the whole person was much more energetic.
After a while, Bai Mingyuan came over and knocked on the door and said, "Zhilan, are you okay?"
"Alright. ”
He pushed the door in, dressed in a true purple robe of the rising sun and moon, with delicate dark lines on the cuffs, a small jade crown that tied his hair high, and a silk ribbon around his waist, completely like a rich child.
"Second Brother Bai, when you dress up like this, you are really a handsome young man. Yi Ying joked with a grin.
Bai Mingyuan's ears were red, but his tone was very natural: "That's it, my sister is so good-looking, and being an elder brother can't be too bad, isn't it." ”
Yi Ying smiled, it seems that Bai Mingyuan has gradually thought about it, and she doesn't want to lose such a childhood playmate, it is best for the two to get along naturally.
The two of them had a brief lunch together at this hotel, and then they were ready to leave.
"Let's go, I'll send you home. He grinned, relieved that he was finally about to get rid of the big burden. Yiying was in a good mood and joked with him.
"I've already asked where the shopkeeper Xu is, but I didn't expect it to be a little outside of this town. Bai Mingyuan scratched his head, a little puzzled.
Yiying smiled and nodded, she knew that it made sense to build on the outskirts of the city.
The two got into the carriage again, and walked for about two quarters of an hour before arriving near Xu's house in Anping.
The carriage stopped, and Bai Mingyuan looked at the house, so shocked that he didn't speak for a long time.
There are weeping willows planted around the house, a stream flows slowly from the side, and the green mountains and green peaks are in the distance, but what is surprising is that the width of the house is close to the green peak behind, which shows that it occupies a wide area, and it is difficult to hide the style in the quiet. He made a visual inspection and felt that it covered at least fifty acres of land. No wonder it was built on the outskirts of the city, and it was difficult to find space to build such a large house in Anping City.
He really didn't expect that the eldest princess valued this nurse so much, not only placed her in her own Tang Muyi, but also gave her such a big mansion to live in her old age.
Bai Mingyuan asked in a low voice, "What are you going to do now?"
Yi Ying whispered a few words and handed him the jade pendant, he nodded and got out of the carriage.
He stepped forward and knocked on the door, and a well-dressed servant came out of the corner door on the left, looked at him, arched his hand, and said without humility or arrogance: "Dare to ask who you are looking for?"
"I beg you to help me send a message to the steward of the second gate, and say that a man with the jade of the old pit has come to him. He arched his hand and smiled.
"That's a coincidence, the steward has just come to inspect, and he shouldn't have left yet, you wait here for a while, and I'll report it." Although the servant didn't understand what Lao Keng Jade was, he also had a good impression of Bai Mingyuan, who was dressed decently and politely, thinking that it might be a relative of Steward Yang, and he didn't dare to slack off, so he turned around and entered the corner gate.
He trotted to the second gate, and saw that Steward Yang was reprimanding a new guy, who had a good relationship with him on weekdays, and he had the heart to help him out of the siege, so he stepped forward and said with a smile: "Steward Yang, there are people looking for you outside." ”
Steward Yang frowned, and said with some displeasure: "Who is it?"
The person who came didn't report his name, only said that he had a piece of old pit jade in his hand. The servant laughed.
As soon as he heard about Jade, he thought it was the home of a merchant who came to ask him for an errand. When he opened his mouth, he wanted to refuse, but a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind: he had vaguely heard that the eldest princess had been looking for a jade piece all these years......
His mind cleared up a little, straightened his clothes, and went towards the gate, wanting to see where the divine was coming.
When he got out of the corner gate, he saw a white young man standing in front of the door with his hands behind his back and waiting, richly dressed and decently described.
"Who are you, what are you looking for me?" Steward Yang asked when he saw his face.
Bai Mingyuan glanced at him, and saw that he was dressed more luxuriously than the lord of an ordinary businessman's family, so he had more respect for the Xu family, and arched his hand: "I am afraid that it is impossible to rashly ask to see Mrs. Xu, so I want to ask you to go and report it." ”
"You want to see the old lady?" he frowned, a little disapproving. Who is the old lady of their family, the governor of the three cities who manages Tang Muyi came to ask for a meeting, and he also decided whether to see or not to see the old lady's mood. Not for anything else, just because the old lady is the nurse of the eldest princess, and the relationship between the two is very good, every time the eldest princess comes to Tang Muyi to live in the Xu family more than her own palace......
Bai Mingyuan saw that he didn't answer immediately, and his mood was also a little nervous, and his palm touched the jade pendant in his arms before he calmed down.
He took out the jade pendant, handed it to Steward Yang, and said confidently: "The steward also please see this jade pendant, this is a high-grade old pit glass species, it is very valuable, you take this jade to see the old lady, and it is said that the old man is visiting, and the old lady will definitely see us." ”
The old lady really doesn't necessarily look at it, but if she knows each other, she has to spread the word.
He noticed that Bai Mingyuan was talking about "we". I couldn't help but say, "You guys?"
Bai Mingyuan nodded with a smile and looked at the carriage not far away, and Steward Yang also cast his eyes over, revealing his inquiry.
"Yes. The old man was now in the carriage, but now he was in a slight ill condition and could not get out of the carriage. ”
"Dare to ask if this old man is a man or a woman, what is his name?" Steward Yang looked at the jadeite, although he didn't study it, but he knew that the old pit jadeite was the most precious jadeite, and such a large piece must be worth a lot of money. But the old lady attaches great importance to the rules, not for the sake of the old man, and he doesn't dare to take risks, so he has to ask more.
