Out of the Jin land and into the Beijing Division, crossing the well is one of the roads, along the way there are many tea liao, exclusively for passing business travelers to drink water, feed horses.

In the early morning of this day, before the dew on the leaves had dispersed, there was a team of chariots and horses approaching the tea house of the Sanbao family.

Sanbao hurriedly greeted him, helped the guests lead the horses, diligently wiped the dust on the benches, took out a stack of coarse cups that had been used for a long time and had many gaps, and poured hot yellow and clear tea soup.

"What are you doing, be careful." The burly guest impatiently scolded Sambo, who looked down and found that the tea soup had overflowed, so he quickly bowed his head and apologized, while wiping the table neatly.

The woman who made Sanbao so stupid that she didn't even notice the overflow of tea, raised her willow eyebrows and stared at her apricot eyes, and said to him: "Fill this pot with water, it will be hot." ”

"Okay." Sanbao grinned and took the brass thin-necked potbelly pot covered by Baoxiang flowers from Yu Qian'er's hand with a big mouth, and knew that it was double-layered, such a pot was extremely troublesome to make, and ordinary small households could afford it.

Perennial in this tea house to pour tea and water for the past business travelers, Sanbao has seen a lot of exquisite pots, this one is definitely used by the richest people in the family.

After a while, San Bao handed the copper kettle filled with boiling hot water back to Yu Qian'er, "Miss, you can take it, it's heavy enough." ”

"Who's Miss Who?" Yu Qian'er glanced sideways at Sanbao, "Put it on the table." ”

Sanbao was so full of joy that he almost couldn't hold the copper kettle, so he quickly put it on the table, only to see Yu Qian'er take out a handkerchief and carefully wipe the outside of the copper kettle, and then he got back into the middle carriage with him.

Such an obvious dislike did not cause any ripples in Sambo's heart, and it was not the first time he had encountered such dislike, so he was still smiling stupidly. Growing up so big, the first time I saw a little lady with such a sign, how could Sanbao not be stupid, and I don't know which girl it was, she dared to use such a peugeot girl, and the future aunt would be blessed, Sanbao thought obscenely.

"Come to your senses, little fool."

Sanbao was woken up, and as soon as he turned around, he received a string of copper coins thrown over, and when he looked at the pedestrian after counting clearly, the one who got on the horse got on the horse, and the one who drove the car was ready to go.

It's really generous, and I don't know where it came from. Although Sanbao has never been out of the house, but there are many people who have seen the business of ushering in this ushering, this team of chariots and horses is burly and strong, and acts very measuredly, and other idle and rich households can not raise such a family, so Sanbao decided that this must be the official eunuch family from the west.

Yu Qian'er put the copper kettle in the carriage and put it down, raised her hand and beat her arm, the carriage sat down in the past few days, her bone frame was almost scattered, and then looked at her girl, still as if she was still in the garden at home, gracefully sitting on the pillow - in a daze.

Even in a daze, she had to maintain a beautiful posture, which made Yu Qian'er have to sigh, "Girl, no one will see it anyway, just lie down and crook for a while." ”

Ji Cheng ignored Yu Qian'er's words, "The hot water is back, wash my face with water." ”

Yu Qian'er and Liu Ye'er waited for Ji Cheng to wash his face and comb his hair, and Ji Cheng also used a little peach blossom rouge to cover up the pale complexion of the road guide who rushed overnight.

Although Yu Qian'er has been serving her own girl since she was ten years old, she still hasn't been able to understand her girl's habit of not forgetting to hold it everywhere. I barely got off the carriage all day, what does it mean to be greased and powdered, and who is it for?

Yu Qian'er naturally didn't understand her girl's difficulties, and Ji Cheng didn't expect her to understand. The most taboo thing about this person is the appearance of the person in front of and behind the person, and one negligence can make people see the details clearly. If she is a girl from a hairpin family, it doesn't hurt to be loose even if she is loose, but she is not, even if there are mountains of gold and silver in the family, and thousands of acres of fertile land, but once people see her loose side, they will talk about her upbringing and conduct, then she will never want to marry into the old family in this life.

Liu Ye'er is two years older than Yu Qian'er, and she is more considerate of her own girl's thoughts, she saw a trace of worry between Ji Cheng's eyebrows, so she comforted: "The girl will definitely be able to make her wish come true, Mrs. Gu's appearance is not as good as the girl." ”

Ji Cheng looked sideways at Liu Ye'er, in the end, she was a little less knowledgeable, her aunt's "adventure" was not only because of her appearance, but also because she had to meet the right person.

This woman is indispensable for talent and luck, and there have been few good stories like her aunt for thousands of years. "Everyone in the world has the same blessing as your aunt?"

Aunt Ji Cheng's matter can indeed be called legendary. In her aunt's generation, the Ji family was just an ordinary Jin businessman, and during the Flower Dynasty Festival, Ji Cheng's aunt pretended to be a flower god and traveled the street, and the third master of the Qi State Mansion fell in love at first sight, and Fei Qing did not marry.

With Ji Lan's family background, at most, she could only enter the mansion of Qi as a concubine, but Ji Lan was unwilling to die, and the third master Shen was willing to go on a hunger strike in front of his father and mother, and finally welcomed Ji Lan as his wife, which made countless women from low backgrounds envious.

Liu Ye'er was silent when she heard this, and Yu Qian'er said quickly: "No matter who marries a girl, it is a blessing from the previous life." And her girl is a person made of gold at all, "I don't believe that there are people in this world who don't love money." ”

"Yu Qian'er!" Liu Ye'er shouted, this girl is too heartless, isn't this saying that her own girl only has money?

Ji Cheng waved her hand, she naturally wouldn't be angry at Yu Qian'er's blunt words, "You don't have knowledge, there are people in this world who think money and copper stink." ”

Yu Qian'er stopped talking, and her girl said that someone hated the smell of money and copper, so it must be someone who hated the smell of money and copper.

The wheels slowly drove into Kyoto's Tongque Street, where the three households occupied most of the street, and the owners of the three families were all with the same surname - Shen.

There are three rooms in the Shen family of the Duke of Qi, although the old lady of the Shen family is still alive, but the three rooms have been separated. Shen Zhuoshang, the eldest lord of the Shen family, is a princess and inherited the title of Duke of Qi, and the second lord Shen Xiu was awarded the title of Uncle Zhongyi because of his meritorious service in saving the driver, and the emperor specially gave him a house next to the Duke of Qi, so that Uncle Zhongyi can not only open a mansion alone, but also inherit filial piety in front of Mrs. Shen.

Mrs. Shen is also an open person, so she simply took advantage of this incident to divide the family, the eldest and the second have titles, and it is not easy to be tied under one roof, which is easy to be disrespectful.

As for the most unsuccessful third master, Shen Ying, now he has also found a position in the Ministry of War, and the house was purchased for him by Mrs. Shen with private money, and it is also on Tongque Street, but the door is open to the side alley, which cannot be compared with the two elder brothers.

The carriage of the Ji family turned into the iron hat alley, and entered Shen Sanye's house from the corner gate, and immediately a small servant came up to lead the horse, "Young Master Cousin, the master has not returned to the house in the yamen, and Madame asked you and Miss Cousin to go to the inner courtyard to meet first." ”

Ji Yuan nodded and got off the horse, Ji Cheng was still sitting in the carriage, and it was not until he arrived at the Weeping Flower Gate that the girl and the mother-in-law waited to get off the carriage and enter the second gate.

The mother-in-law who came to greet Ji Cheng was a little face-stricken, not the housekeeper Shen Wanli who was next to Ji Lan when she came a few years ago, and the mother-in-law in front of her claimed to be surnamed Cui.

Liu Ye'er stepped forward and called Cui's mother affectionately, and gave her a purse, "Mom looks a little angry, she has only served by Mrs. Aunt's side in the past two years, right?" ”

Mother Cui weighed the weight of the purse, and said with a smile: "How can the old slave have that blessing, that is, he is in charge of the pantry for his wife in front." ”

Yu Qian'er next to her almost didn't freeze when she heard this, but Ji Cheng's face still had a warm smile on her face.

The mother-in-law in charge of the pantry, that is, the one who is usually responsible for entertaining the guests at home, and the daughter-in-law who is a little closer to her comes to visit the door, as long as Ji Lan is a successful person, she should send her mother-in-law to greet her. She has been Mrs. Shen for more than ten years, and it is impossible for her to not even understand this little bit of human sophistication.

Ji Cheng knew very well in his heart, her aunt was giving her a different way, isn't this just a person who hates money and copper?

It's just that the Ji family has a request for her aunt, if Ji Cheng wants to stay in the capital and enter the circle of ladies in the capital, she has to rely on Ji Lan's recommendation, so even if she is embarrassed, she can only bear it. And Ji Lan probably grasped her point.

Ji Cheng followed her eldest brother Ji Yuan into the courtyard where the main house of the Shen Mansion was located, she came with her father once more than three years ago, and stayed for two days, and now looking at this courtyard seems to be more simple than before, if it weren't for Ji Cheng's heart to know how much silver the Ji family wants to give her aunt every year, she would probably think that the life of the Shen family's third room is about to go on.

Ji Lan sat in the main hall and saw Ji Yuan and Ji Cheng's two nephews and nieces, and when these two stepped into the door, even the door seemed to be a lot brighter, which made people can't help but squint.

Ji Yuan led Ji Cheng to salute Ji Lan, "Auntie." ”

Ji Lan smiled and said, "You are Brother Yuan'er, right?" After so many years of not seeing you, my aunt almost didn't recognize you. ”

Ji Yuan has a calm and resolute temperament, and he just smiled when he heard the words.

"Your father's letter has already told you about you, and I also asked your third brother-in-law to inquire about the affairs of the academy, there should be no problem, you can live in peace." Ji Lan looked at Ji Yuan, who was like a Zhilan jade tree, with considerable satisfaction.

"Thank you, aunt, aren't your cousins here?" Ji Yuan asked. Ji Lan's two sons, one is sixteen and the other is eighteen years old, the eldest Shen Jing has entered Dongshan Academy, Ji Yuan and Shen Jing have been friends for a long time, and they want to get close to each other and learn about literature and art.

"There are a lot of guests these days, and they all go to the old lady's place to serve." Ji Lan said with a smile.

Ji Yuan nodded.

Ji Lan turned her eyes to look at Ji Cheng, there are no ugly people in the Ji family, but this person in front of her has brought the beauty of the Ji family to the point of reaching the peak, saying that her Zhongtiandi Lingxiu is not bad, if her family background is better, I am afraid that the saints in the palace will do it.
