From Anping Fang to Yongning Fang, you have to pass through most of Dunhuang City.

Feng Ling's face was attached to the small window on the car wall, and she looked at the road dizzily, and there was nothing unusual about the houses in Lifang, all of which were hollow-shaped low houses like her home, with tight walls on all sides, flat roofs, small windows and small courtyards, so as to resist the wind and sand. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info Solid people are more particular, building houses with brick and stone walls, and ordinary people are just courtyard walls built with tamped loess.

The wind spirit's gaze swept over the houses and landed on the large and small bazaars between the squares. The whole city is like a big city, you can see shops everywhere, camel caravans carrying goods all the way to and fro, and merchants shouting and cheering.

Since she was a child, she has traveled with her father and aunt to many large and small towns, but this city, which is full of sand in the early spring breeze, hot and humid in summer, and extremely arid, but because of the scenery of this shop and endless business, she is more fascinated than other places.

"It's not the first time that my aunt has come back, but she hasn't come for the past two years, how can it be like the first time she came?" Ah Qi probe looked at the window on the other side, but he couldn't see anything unusual.

The wind spirit ignored it and looked at it stupidly. The carriage turned into Yongning Fang, and the decent and spacious mansions gradually increased, and after walking for a while, the carriage stopped in front of a house with the most imposing gate.

There were many carts and horses parked in front of the door, and several domestic servants were trotting back and forth, pulling horses and driving, busy arranging the horses and carts. Feng Ling was startled, and for a while he couldn't guess what kind of feast the Suo family was going to set up and create such a big momentum.

A servant stepped forward and asked her to get out of the car, and Feng Ling followed the servant into the house from the side, and did not go to the main courtyard, but only turned into the backyard from the path of flowers and trees on one side.

The servant was about a new purchase, and when he looked at Feng Lingsheng's face, he teased and said: "The layout of this house is still secondary, the grass and trees are well maintained, and the pavilions and water pavilions are still a little interesting, known as Shazhou Xiaojiangnan, I am afraid that I can't see such a scenery elsewhere." ”

"You are also a little knowledgeable, this is the eldest lady of the Yuhang Gu family in Jiangnan Province, is there any small Jiangnan?" Soft and smiling words came from the edge of a bush of low flowers and trees beside the path, and then the leaf shadow swayed slightly, and a smiling little lady turned out from behind, with thick reddish-brown hair, a single screw tightly tied on the top of her head, a red gold inlaid double-strand hairpin on the left and right sides was fixed, and a pale yellow crystal string was coiled three turns in front of the bun, and the last turn hung just right on her full and white forehead, and the sun was shining brightly, and the red hair was dazzling.

Feng Ling's eyes shimmered, took her hand and looked her up and down, and said jokingly: "Where did the beauty come from, isn't it a fairy who flew down from the murals of my grotto?" ”

"I haven't seen you for a long time, and yesterday I waited for you at the gate of the city for most of the day, and at first glance I saw you making fun of people like this, so it can be seen that you are not used to it." The brightly colored bearded little lady fluttered her thick eyelashes twice, flushed her face, and whispered in a whisper.

Feng Ling covered her mouth and laughed, and looked at her from head to toe, seeing that she had a pink beard, red lips and eyebrows, and flowers on the center of her eyebrows. and a thin waist wrapped in thin clothes, fine silk, a few small silver bells fell on the light fluttering skirt, moving with her, the bell sound was subtle and crisp, and then with her cold hand, the smile on Feng Ling's face slowly disappeared, "Yin Niang, don't say that you are here to welcome me, now the autumn is cold, and you are dressed so thinly......" She rolled her eyes, her eyes flashed, and the smile returned to her face, "Could it be that someone came to see each other today?" The newly arrived Lieutenant ......"

Suo Liangyin twitched the corners of her mouth imperceptibly, and secretly pulled her hand, but her eyes glanced at the servant beside Feng Ling, "There is no serious word in my mouth, and I don't follow it anymore." ”

Feng Ling knew that she was timid, although she felt that her dazzling makeup today was a little strange, but she also stopped laughing. Suo Liangyin sent the servants and led Feng Ling and Ah Mi to the backyard to meet the serious hostess of Suo Mansion, Mrs. Liu.

Jiangnan giant Gu family, although Mrs. Liu has long heard people talk about it, but because the Gu family and his wife live in a simple place, they have never interacted. Feng Ling has seen it a few times when she was a child, and the house of Feng Ling's righteous brother Kang Dazhi is in this Yongning Fang, and it is only separated from Suofu by a back alley, and she often comes over to play naughty. On the other hand, Feng Ling and Suo Liangyin, the concubine of Suofu, have known each other since childhood, a sister who has never been of the same age, and a concubine who is not on the table from a lowly orchid, should have such an opportunity, and made a couple, often stubborn in one place.

A few days ago, Mrs. Liu learned from Kang Dazhi's wife Mi Shi that when the only daughter of the Gu family would return to Dunhuang to control the Gu family's operation in the Western Regions, she was taken aback, and she inevitably had some calculations in her heart, so she couldn't wait to arrange this reception banquet, for fear that someone next to her would take the lead.

The silk is a huge profit, but not everyone does it, there are only two great sources of silk silk that have been transported to the countries of the Western Regions like flowing water in Dunhuang City, one is sold from Chang'an, and the other is that the Gu family is transported from Jiangnan Road. The goods from Chang'an were transported to Dunhuang, and after being resold, the profits that could be obtained have been stripped of one or two layers, but the Gu family relied on the strong and good martial arts, and only needed to transport the goods for three or two years at a time, and the goods were shipped directly from the origin of Jiangnan Province.

Most of the children of the Hao family are bureaucrats, and it is said that the merchants are different from the high-ranking families like the Suo family, but those giants want to get to the bottom and show their wealth, but the situation has turned around.

There are few people in the world who don't love money, so they are as lonely as the Suo's family, the No. 1 high-ranking family in Shazhou, and they have to rely on one or two, and occasionally secretly promote a few big deals, or rely on the relationship between the official and the Chinese to go to the convenience, and they have to take a few profits to fill the family.

Such a giant who is in the hearts of the wealthy family, Zhaowu Jiu's surname Hu Shang's Da Sabao Kangda Zhi can be regarded as one, and now Gu Fengling, who wants to buy and sell half of the silk in the Western Regions, can also be regarded as one.

Mrs. Liu obviously understands the truth, and when she sees the wind spirit, her face is full of pity, and she calls "my son" on the left and "good child" on the right, as if she is a mother and daughter who are separated and reunited.

Feng Lingyuan was not very used to it, and when Madame Liu stepped forward to pull her hand, she couldn't help but want to take two steps back. But in a blink of an eye, I caught a glimpse of the noble and arrogant concubine of the Suo family behind Mrs. Liu, who was standing with a tiger face hanging her hands, and from time to time lifted her eyelids and flew at her with an eye knife.

The concubine of the Suo family puffed out her cheeks slightly, and whispered with some annoyance: "Mother! Feng Ling guessed that the seat she was sitting on was about her usual exclusivity, so she simply smiled coquettishly and shook Mrs. Liu's wrist lightly, "Feng Ling doesn't dare to pretend to be my mother, Sister Zhaoniang is going to annoy me." ”

Mrs. Liu hid her mouth and laughed a few times, pointed at Kang Dazhi's wife Mi Shi and said: "Look at your sister's mouth, she is really clever, if she hadn't been born with the appearance of a Tang person, she and Da Lang would be like brothers and sisters."

"Madame has never seen the appearance of Feng Ling's brother, how can I be a rough man in my family." Mrs. Mi waved the silk handkerchief in her hand, and answered the words with sharp teeth, which caused all the ladies and little ladies who were accompanying her to laugh with their faces.

Feng Ling sat down beside Mrs. Liu, and laughed together, but when his eyes flowed, he saw Mrs. Liu slanting to Suo Liangzhao with a reproachful look, Suo Liangzhao pursed his lips, glanced at Feng Ling fiercely, and sat back in front of a table next to him.

Suo's daughter, who has been arrogant since she was a child, is uncharacteristically wearing a plain dress today, and her simple hair accessories are a little lighter than Ah Qishang's, and she is willing to swallow the secret loss.

is humble and indisputable, and the concubine who is used to being bullied by Suo Liangzhao is luxurious, and her makeup is like a blooming flower. The wind spirit felt more and more that something was wrong, and he was afraid that he was too careful. Quietly looking around, I saw Suo Liangyin's orchid biological mother, Cao, sitting alone in a secluded corner with her eyebrows unfurled, and she was almost sure that there must be something strange in it.

After laughing for a while, several maids carrying food boxes came in streams. The feast of the ladies is set up in a spacious pavilion in the garden, the sun is very good during the day, and they do not feel cold, and there are autumn chrysanthemums and red leaves to enjoy, without losing the elegance and interest.

When the ladies took turns to toast each other, Feng Ling ordered Ah Mi to take out the peach blossom grease and give it away one by one, and the young ladies surrounded Feng Ling to listen to her talk about the makeup that was prevalent in Jiangdu nowadays, and the older ladies smiled and discussed the affairs between the children of each family.

Suddenly there were a few laughter in the distance on the east side of the garden, and the wind spirit followed the voice, and the windows of the cabinet of another small garden in the east were all opened, and the men and guests were all eating and drinking and laughing in that pavilion.

The pavilion is two stories high, with a vermilion fence, and the garden where the ladies are located is only separated by a low wall, and a few male guests overlook it intentionally or unintentionally, and the situation of the ladies here should be seen clearly.

Feng Ling was surprised by the strange arrangement of the Suo family's banquet guests, the silk on her body was suddenly pulled twice, and when she turned around, she glanced at the other little ladies, they still bowed their heads and said their words, such a clear laughter seemed to be heard by no one, and I didn't know that someone in the pavilion on the other side of the low wall was looking at this side.

Looking at each person's form carefully, it is obvious that they are much more reserved than Fang Cai, and one or two of them are shy and even blushing slightly.

Suddenly, the wind spirit suddenly realized that someone was really looking at each other, but he didn't know who and which one he was looking at.
