On the Hangzhou wharf where the ships came and went, the manager of the Hangzhou branch of the Beitong Shipping Bank bowed and bent down to hand a small wooden box to Zhang Dutou. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"This is a little bit of a small meaning from our shipowner, thank you for your great care for Beitong Shipping Company."

accepted the gift, but there was no trace of a smile on Zhang Dutou's face.

"As long as you obey the law and make a good living, this official will not cause trouble for no reason, go! This official still has important things to do, so I don't have time to talk to you."

After arranging the official authority, he drove the people away.

When the goal was achieved, the steward hurriedly retreated, and then stuffed a small bag with silver ingots into the hands of the cronies who were in charge of sending off the guest Zhang Dutou.

"Your Excellency has ordered, the carriage of the Beitong Boat Company does not need to be checked, and you bastards don't take the opportunity to extort money from others later."

The cronies viciously trained the soldiers, and the soldiers said that they didn't dare, and immediately pulled the gate and let them go.

Half an hour later, the four carriages left the dock and went straight to Hefang Street.

"In front of the girl is the Liuruju Hangzhou branch, and the business is thriving, not only Ye Zhifu only uses jade cloud paper, jade color paper, pen and book to paint, but the literati and scholars in Hangzhou are not Liuruju's four treasures, after Tang Dong's Manjianghong sang the whole city, the shop will not be idle for a day, and the plaque sent by Ye Zhifu is still hanging in the shop."

As soon as he arrived at Hefang Street, the steward got out of the car and walked, followed by the carriage where Yuan Rongrong was sitting, and saw Yuan Rongrong lifting the curtain to peek at the Liuruju semicolon, and immediately went up to say.

As soon as he saw Yuan Rongrong frowning, the steward immediately remembered that the shipowner had told me to be cautious and say little, especially not to mention Tang Yin's affairs, the steward hurriedly closed his mouth and talked about several famous century-old shops on Hefang Street, but Yuan Rongrong was not interested.

"Almost, let's leave for Xiangfu."

Yuan Rongrong put down the curtain and instructed the steward to change the route.

The steward whispered his promise and directed the convoy to the east, and about two quarters of an hour later he arrived at the secluded Puchang Lane, far from the city, where the Xiangfu was located, adjacent to a newly completed Buddhist temple called Puci Temple, perhaps influenced by the smoke of incense, and the gate of the Xiangfu was particularly solemn and solemn.

"A guest from Jiangning."

According to the previous tacit understanding, the steward walked to a small hexagonal pavilion set up in front of the Xiang Mansion, called the porter room, and informed the porter on duty to send the guests to the Beitong boat.

"Dare to ask if it's Miss Yuan in the car?"

After thanking the steward, the porter personally stood behind the car, looking with a low brow.

"It's the slave family."

Yuan Rongrong lifted the curtain and nodded slightly to the porter, and the porter said, "Offended, please bear with Miss Yuan." He raised his head and quickly glanced at Yuan Rongrong, and sure enough, the appearance was roughly similar to what the housekeeper said, the red hibiscus hairpin as a token was bright red and inserted into the crow's blue hair.

After confirming that it was correct, the porter knelt down and saluted Yuan Rongrong: "In front of Aunt Yuan, Xiao Jiuzi greets you."

Yuan Rongrong couldn't stand this gift, and just called, Xiao Jiuzi bowed again: "The master looks forward to Aunt Yuan coming to Hangzhou every day, looking forward to the stars and the moon, and finally looks forward to you."

Without giving Yuan Rongrong time to ask, Xiao Jiuzi, who was only thirteen or fourteen years old, ran back to the porter room, and looked at a semicircle on the rectangular table, with a protruding thin column in the center, and quickly pressed two short and one long.

Dangdang...... When, after the crisp sound, the door of Xiangfu was moved horizontally from one left to the other, the door was actually made of fine iron, weighing a thousand catties of iron There is a shallow ditch under the door, several inconspicuous round small wheels, embedded in the ditch iron bars, with the door open and rolling.

There was a gate behind the door, but it was a fence made of four iron rods, each of which was pierced in a one-man high hole in a stone pillar.

The man dressed as a nurse drew the iron rod and made way for the carriage to enter and exit.

"This is called rejecting horses, the house does not prohibit mules and horses, in order to prevent outsiders from trespassing on horses, especially behind the door set up this checkpoint, the iron rod has been drilled at both ends, can be connected with iron chains, and then buckle a lock, it is not easy to unlock."

Yuan Rongrong thought she was going to walk into the house, but Xiao Jiuzi asked her to get in the car again.

"Someone has already ridden over to inform the master, Aunt Yuan will get in the car, and you will go to the front yard after crossing the peach blossom avenue, the master should be waiting for you there, but unfortunately the peach blossoms have been grateful, otherwise the scenery on the road is so beautiful that the small one dares to say that the garden in Hangzhou can not be compared with our Xiangfu."

Xiao Jiuzi said proudly, and the other nursing homes also looked honored.

Behind the rejection of the horse is a huge shadow wall, covering the field of vision, no matter what Xiao Jiuzi said, Yuan Rongrong still can't imagine the appearance of the peach blossom avenue, but the peach blossom letter has ended, the peach blossoms outside the peach blossom dock in Tianxia Village have all become a remnant red, Hangzhou here must be the first bloom of summer flowers, want to see the peach blossoms again have to wait for the spring breeze to come again tomorrow.

With expectations, Yuan Rongrong hung the curtain high, and waited for the carriage to bypass the shadow wall, and the peach blossoms on both sides of the road,

Half a mile ahead, the road is divided into three roads, north, east and west, and a huge stone carp stands in the pool, which is constantly spraying water from the sky.

"This is called a fountain, I couldn't close my mouth when I saw it for the first time, and when it comes to tricks, the entire Hangzhou Xiangfu is the first one."

The steward praised him vigorously.

After arriving in Hangzhou, Yuan Rongrong smiled from the bottom of her heart for the first time, she knew the fountain, Tang Yin told her that he planned to come to Hangzhou to have fun, and in the future, she and Qiu Xiang could have fun in the pool in the middle of summer, and there was such a pool that could eliminate a lot of summer heat.

"That's what it looks like, it's really pleasant."

Yuan Rongrong praised it heartily.

"After the pool, I went to the front yard, and I don't know what the master of the Xiangfu is thinking, how good is it to build a house on such a large land, and how many people can live? What kind of courtyard landscaping is all done, there is really money and nowhere to spend."

He is often ordered to come to Xiangfu to send the east to the west, and he is familiar with the housekeeper and has a lot of small words.

Yuan Rongrong understands that it is from Tang Yin's mouth, Tang Yin does not like to build the house densely, but likes to be surrounded by mountains and waters, such as the white space in calligraphy and painting, the aura is empty, no matter what is filled, crowded and vulgar.

There was a walk on the road, a courtyard was close in front of me, and I saw a small person like a jade carving, waving towards the carriage, Yuan Rongrong was anxious to take care of things quickly.

As soon as the carriage stopped, Yuan Rongrong was about to get out of the carriage, and the little jade threw herself into her arms.

"Sister, why are you here now? Qiu Xiang is about to suffocate here, I heard that Jiang Ning has been occupied by the people of the Great Chu Dynasty, are you okay?"

It's not who Akika is.

Yuan Rongrong also thought about Qiu Xiang, looking left and right, always trying to see if there was something missing? Seeing that she was still as old as ever, she was still not long, and she was as immature as a girl, because she seemed to have no energy because of Qingxiao, and said with pity, "Thin."

"I'm worried about the young master, I'm worried about you, I'm worried about Uncle Wangcai, Shopkeeper Hua, I'm worried about everyone, how can I eat well, Uncle Po and Uncle Dog are detaining me and not allowing me to run around, and I'm about to suffocate to death."

Tang Yin's most trusted and powerful person is nothing more than a cadre of Jingwumen, so he naturally wants to save Qiuxiang's lifeline for him and send it to Hangzhou, so that Tang Yin can feel at ease.

"Anyone can have an accident, but you can't, if you lose a hair, the young master will go crazy."

During this time, Tang Yin can be said to be walking on the blade, and he can't be worried.

"That's why I've never stepped out of the Xiangfu."

Qiu Xiang knows what to do, but she is depressed, everyone hides things from her, she is like a blind person, although Xiangfu is several times larger than Taohuawu, there are more slaves, and new and interesting things are sent out of the Freemason one by one, but she can't be happy.

"You, people don't know how to be blessed in the blessings, the young master treats me, if there is half of you, it doesn't matter if I die immediately, you still have complaints."

twisted Qiu Xiang's nose, she was really envious of Qiu Xiang.

Monopolizing Tang Yin's care is the most proud thing in Qiu Xiang's life, let Yuan Rongrong twist it, take her hand and walk into the yard.

"The whole Xiangfu is my dowry."

Akika couldn't help but show off the property under her name.

"Xiang Qiuxiang, my sister's name is really special."

Yuan Rongrong thought that Xiangfu was a fake surname used by Tang Yin to hide people's eyes, but she didn't expect it to be taken from Qiu Xiang's surname.

"Xiangqiu Xiang is so awkward, or fragrant peach blossoms are good, in English it is peach blossom fragrance, then it is called good."

Qiu Xiang mentioned her real name again, and when she thought that Tang Yin was not allowed to say it, she hurriedly winked at Yuan Rongrong.

"I won't tell the young master."

This is a taboo that a few Tang Yin will control Qiu Xiang, and most of the people in the house don't mention it.

"My sister is the best."

thanked Yuan Rongrong coquettishly, and seeing that she was absent-minded, she pretended to be angry and said, "After talking for a long time, my sister didn't come to see me at all, you only have the young master in your heart, and you want to take away my status as a big girl in the house, right?"

After getting along for a long time, sharing hardships and sorrows, and from time to time they will sleep in the same bed and talk about their daughter's heart, Yuan Rongrong has already let go of her restraints and will no longer be led by Qiu Xiang.

"Yes, like you, the young master will always be the first, but the second place in my heart is you, unlike a certain big girl who put Uncle Wangcai in the second place, and put her sister who fanned her that night to repel mosquitoes in the corner of the room."

Speaking of doting on Qiu Xiang, Yuan Rongrong lost to Tang Yin alone, Qiu Xiang was very clear, hugged Yuan Rongrong with a grin, and didn't dare to say more.

After the front yard is a small garden, compared to the majesty of the Peach Blossom Avenue, it seems ordinary and elegant.

After passing through the atrium, I came to the backyard, where there was a large vegetable garden, surrounded by plantains, and at the end was a black door, which was guarded by a guard with a knife.

"Beyond that, it's the forbidden land of Xiangfu, and I can't even enter it without a pair of cards."

whispered in Yuan Rongrong's ear: "The young master wants me to say this, he says it equally, in fact, there is no right card, and no one will stop me, but I don't want to lie to my sister, sister, don't bother me, the young master really spoils me too much."

Others may think that Qiu Xiang is deliberately showing off and pampering and arrogant, but Yuan Rongrong knows that she is telling the truth.

Tang Yin always said, if you are petted, you will be petted, and it is my fault that you are spoiled, and I will naturally be responsible, that is, I will refer to Qiuxiang.

After speaking, he handed over the pair of cards on his waist to Yuan Rongrong, and the young master said that he would have one for his sister when he came over, anyway, I don't need it, my sister will use it first.

After checking the right cards, the courtyard was released, just like behind the gate of Xiangfu, there is also a shadow wall in the forbidden land to prevent others from prying eyes.

The shadow wall of the front door is engraved with the words "Confucian love for the common people", but the shadow wall of the forbidden place is engraved with "Jingwu Gate".

Behind the shadow wall is a large bamboo forest, and the houses are neatly arranged on a flat ground that is as gray as the avenue.

Not aesthetically pleasing, but absolutely neat and spotless, so to speak.

There was a special patrol in the forbidden place, and when he saw Yuan Rongrong's face, he immediately became vigilant.

"This Miss Yuan is the young master's personal maid, and she just came from Jiangning."

As soon as Qiu Xiang explained, the patrolman's face changed instantly: "It turned out to be Miss Yuan, forgive us for not knowing Taishan."

"Are you looking for a proprietor? The proprietors are in the Welfare Hall, and they are discussing with a few gentlemen."

Not to mention that Yuan Rongrong was even very happy with Qiu Xiang.

"When did the young master come back from Hefei?"

"I just arrived early in the morning, and I said that I hadn't even eaten lunch until now."

The patrol officer deliberately said it to Qiu Xiang, and everyone knew that Qiu Xiang was the only one who could talk about Tang Yin.

"It's so self-loving, I have to talk about him, sister, let's go together."

Pull up Yuan Rongrong and leave.

Usually, when she heard Tang Yin doing business, Yuan Rongrong definitely didn't dare to disturb, but this time she was surrounded by Qiu Xiang, because she missed it too much.

"Brother Renjie pretended to be Huang Tianba and used the seal letter given by the old monster of Wang Ju to finish Yan Zonghan's 200,000 yuan, and he didn't make that old monster angry."

Goubi had just received Zhao Renjie's flying pigeon message, and he successfully won the trust of Wanyan Zonghan and led the reward with a dummy head.

"Wanyan Zongwang knocked half of it away from the middle, and he had to be picked up by every official who handled it, and the last thing he got was only 70,000 yuan, and I don't know if it can be transported back to Hangzhou safely, this account is not cost-effective."

Broke his throat and complained.

"If 70,000 Guan can take off this knife around my neck, I should thank God, let Lao Tai ask his senior brother to inform the world of the green forest heroes. Now that Tang Yin killed me, there is no money to take, let them go where it is cool, and stop bothering me."

Tang Yin cared more about freedom than money, and after running thousands of miles from the mass grave, he never appeared on the streets in broad daylight.

"What's the situation in Jiangning, doesn't it mean that a ship will arrive in Hangzhou today?"

Tang Yin was worried about Liuruju's buddy, he wanted to take away the shopkeeper Hua's family for a long time, but the shopkeeper Hua insisted on refusing and wanted to stay in Jiangning to guard the shop for Tang Yin.

"Qin Hui took the Kang Wangfu as the imperial palace, and had sacrificed to Tianke to succeed the unification four days ago, and the Wang family was represented by Wang Xiangongzi, who was now the supervisor of the Shaofu of the Great Chu Dynasty, one level higher than his father's former official."

Qiu Xiang opened the door, and Yuan Rongrong opened her mouth and told her about the recent situation in Jiangning.

"Here, I just have a lot of things to ask you, sit down and talk slowly."

Tang Yin personally held Yuan Rongrong's hand, and a thousand words were sent to ten fingers.

"Are you sure you want to cry and talk at the same time? I've grown up so big, I've never seen a girl cry a handful of snot and tears, and she can still overwhelm the country and the city, I see pity."

Suddenly, he screamed, "I'm telling the truth, why are you pinching me, you're really ugly now."

wanted to find someone to echo it, except for Qiu Xiang, everyone turned their heads and came out of sight.
