Chapter 249: He's Out of Beijing
The abandoned house next door to the palace began to be quietly renovated.
It took two days to remove the weeds and clean the entire house.
There are not too many people in the palace, but all of them have kung fu and are very capable. Ji Jinxing allocated some to help repair it this time, which can be regarded as twice the result with half the effort.
It's just that Ji Jinxing has been busy again in recent days, leaving early and returning late, even with Qinghe, Fang Hanniang is rarely seen.
Ji Jinxing didn't talk about it, so Fang Hanniang didn't ask.
On this day, the sky was still bright, Fang Han Niangfang woke up, yawning and freshening up, the unbright sky light reflected from the dark window, and the face was a little dull.
Jasmine went out to bring hot water, Fang Hanniang took a light-colored snail and gently traced the shape of her eyebrows, and vaguely heard the conversation outside.
"Is your eldest lady awake?"
Fang Hanniang's hand paused slightly, this was Ji Jinxing.
Jasmine's respectful voice came: "Back to the prince's words, the eldest lady has woken up......"
Immediately after, there was the creak of the door being gently pushed open.
Fang Hanniang was still holding a snail in her hand, and looked at the voice, and Ji Jinxing came in from outside with a wet and heavy mist.
Because Fang Hanniang didn't let Jasmine take the lamp in the room, it was still a little dim.
Ji Jinxing seemed to know that he was damp on his body, he stood at the door, the sky was covered by him, and his face sank a little when he looked at people.
Ji Jinxing's eyes looked at Fang Hanniang.
Fang Hanniang put down the snail dai in her hand, her voice was brisk, and she said with a smile: "Be careful, what's the matter?" ”
Ji Jinxing listened to the girl's sweet voice, and the expression on his face finally eased a little: "I want to go out of Beijing, and it will take about a month to come back." ”
Fang Hanniang was stunned: "One month...... So long......"
She was wearing soft home clothes, with silver-bottomed red-edged soft-soled shoes on her feet that could only be worn in the house, got up from the stool, and eagerly ran to Ji Jinxing, looking at Ji Jinxing: "...... Is it dangerous? You have to be careful. ”
Ji Jinxing was silent for a long time: "It's not dangerous." He raised his head and touched Fang Hanniang's hair scattered over his shoulders, untied the fast sign from his waist and handed it to Fang Hanniang, "I will come back as soon as possible." These days you are in Beijing, if someone bullies you, you go to the crown princess. ”
It turned out to be worried about myself.
Fang Hanniang took the sign, cherished it in her arms, her eyes narrowed into a crescent moon, and said with a smile: "I will take good care of myself, you can rest assured to do things." ”
Ji Jinxing nodded silently, probably because he was afraid of the mist on his body, he just touched Fang Hanniang's face, and then turned around and left.
Don't look at Fang Hanniang sending Ji Jinxing a wise and understanding look, as soon as Ji Jinxing left, Fang Hanniang rolled onto the carved bed, rolled back and forth sullenly, and didn't care about the snail on her face stained on the futon.
Jasmine came in with hot water, and when she saw her master's appearance, she knew that her master must be in a bad mood again, she empathetically put the hot water on the basin stand, and quietly waited for Fang Hanniang to adjust her mood.
Sure enough, after a while, Fang Hanniang came over with her slippers pouting: "Hey, I've become an empty nest girl." Empty nest girls need love. ”
"Miss, what are you talking about? What empty nest? Jasmine didn't understand.
"Nothing." Fang Hanniang sat back in front of the dresser sullenly, but she was no longer in the mood to dress, she looked at the concentric comb on the table, and said depressedly: "My heart and liver baby has gone out, and it will take a month to come back." ”
Baby?
Jasmine's face was slightly red from this meaty title: "So long? ”
Fang Hanniang nodded sullenly, "Forget it, it's not convenient for me to ask about him......" She quickly cheered up, "Then I'll go next door to watch them renovate the house these days." ”
Jasmine nodded busily, as long as her eldest lady cheered up, let alone go to see the renovation of the house, she planned to renovate it herself, and she also agreed with both hands and feet.
After breakfast, Fang Hanniang led Jasmine to the back garden of King Jin's mansion.
These days, the subordinates and guards of the King of Jin's Mansion have basically known this peerless Fang girl, and they are very respectful to her.
Because most of the people who repaired the house next door were from the King of Jin's Mansion, Qing Xia, the chief manager of the King of Justice, simply asked people to open the moonlight door on the wall and connect the two houses.
This move won Ji Jinxing's heart.
It is said that Qingxia got a fine sword because of this, and it was so beautiful that he hung it on his waist every day.
Fang Hanniang is going to pass through the moon gate.
Because there is a door, it is also arranged for subordinates to guard it in Natete. However, the people already knew Fang Hanniang, and when they heard Fang Hanniang say that they wanted to go over and have a look, they opened the door without saying a word.
Fang Hanniang entered the Moon Gate, and there was a small courtyard connected to it, and there were probably some flowers planted in the yard before, but now there are only traces of being pulled out, and a lot of soil has been turned out.
Fang Hanniang found that the house next door was indeed in disrepair, the wall skin peeled off a lot, and there was a swing in the yard, rusty, which looked a little dilapidated, Fang Hanniang sighed, kicked the swing slightly with her foot, and the rusty swing squeaked and shook slightly.
Jasmine was a little scared, but as a heartfelt slave, she still endured her fear and stayed by Fang Hanniang's side very responsibly: "Miss...... Here, why do you always feel a little eerie......"
Although Fang Hanniang loves to tease people, she is also a little worried that Jasmine will leave a psychological shadow, and deliberately said: "How can it be gloomy? You must know that next to this house is the palace of the king. My sweetheart, who is that? That's the descendants of the Heavenly Family, and the yang energy on his body is very strong, how can he not suppress the gloom here? ”
After all, she is a native of Darong, Jasmine is convinced of the supremacy of imperial power, and when she heard Fang Hanniang say this, she also suddenly realized, and smiled: "The eldest lady is right, it is the slave who wants to go wrong." ”
As a result, before the words fell, there was a creak from the door not far away.
Frightened, Jasmine's face suddenly turned earthy, and her body stiffened.
Just a moment later, the door opened, and Qing He walked out of it, muttering to himself that the study here is really difficult to pick up, and greeted Fang Hanniang with a smile on his face: "Miss Fang." ”
Jasmine kept patting her chest with palpitations.
Fang Hanniang was very surprised: "Qinghe, why didn't you go with your master?" ”
Qing He's face remained unchanged, and he said with a smile: "There is no danger for the master to go out this time, and he specially instructed me to stay and protect Miss Fang." ”
Fang Hanniang saw that Qinghe said it very calmly, and her heart finally let go.
Even Qing He, the head of the guard, felt that there was no danger, so there was really no danger.
The smile on Fang Hanniang's face brightened a little.
Qing He led Fang Hanniang around the abandoned house, basically everywhere was being repaired, and there was nothing particularly good-looking, and the dust was also very filled, Fang Hanniang had no interest after going around for a week.
It just so happened that the news came from the Fulai Inn, saying that the shopkeeper Gu was looking for Fang Hanniang to talk about something.
Fang Hanniang thought of this and felt a little sorry for the Gu shopkeeper, she was raised in the palace of King Jin these days, and Fang Hanniang, who said that she had done a good market research, did not go over again, and all of them were pressed on the Gu shopkeeper alone.
She thought about it, briefly picked herself up, and took Jasmine to prepare to go back to the Fulai Inn.
Fang Hanniang wants to go out, and Qinghe naturally has to protect her.
got into the car, Fang Hanniang suddenly remembered: "What about Tonghua?" It's strange that I haven't seen her today. ”
She originally thought that Ji Jinxing would leave Li Tonghua to protect her, but in the end, she directly left Qinghe behind.
Qinghe answered very naturally: "Tonghua has a task and went out." ”
Fang Hanniang didn't think much about it, nodded, said "It's hard work", and got into the carriage.
When she arrived at the Fulai Inn, the shopkeeper Gu was already waiting in the room, and Fang Hanniang entered the room a little embarrassed and said, "There is Uncle Lao Gu these days." ”
Before Fang Hanniang was taken away to Jinwang's Mansion to recuperate, the shopkeeper Gu was very worried about this matter. From the perspective of a businessman, it is a good thing that there are female dependents in the lord's family who are so valued by the prince, and the development of the business in the capital should be handy; But from the perspective of this "Uncle Gu", this niece is no different from stepping into the abyss. Think about it, Jin Wangfu, is that a person like them who can handle a business family?
Shopkeeper Gu looked at Fang Hanniang carefully, and saw that her skin was more delicate, her eyes were shining, and her spirit was even better, so she knew that these days, she was probably living quite well in the palace.
"It's not tiring...... It's just, hey, Miss, you. In the end, the shopkeeper Gu could only turn into such an emotion, "I don't even know how to write to your father about it, after all, it's better for you, as a daughter, to talk to him." ”
Fang Hanniang nodded.
Only then did the shopkeeper get down to business, diverting the topic from Fang Cai: "Speaking of which, these days, I have found an excellent location shop. If the eldest lady wants to open up the flower soap market from the upper class, she might as well go there. After my investigation, I found that that street is the favorite street for the powerful in Xijingli, and that shop is right opposite a branch of a Jude Building, and many private rooms on the second floor can be seen by opening the windows. Many ladies and ladies like to go to Jude Building for a meal or something, and they can also play a big role in publicity. ”
Fang Hanniang saw that the shopkeeper Gu was so attentive, and her heart was even more moved, and the shopkeeper Tonggu also talked about her thoughts about the shop.
The two talked for a long time, and Jasmine went to call Xiao Er for lunch and sent it directly to the room.
In the afternoon, the shopkeeper Gu directly took Fang Hanniang to see the location of the shop.
The shop is very large, and it just occupies the corner of an intersection, and the location couldn't be better.
It's just that the shop is closed at the moment, and a seal is pasted on it, which says "closed for renovation", and asked the people around me, saying that it used to be a bookstore, but because of the rapid development of Yuanyi Bookstore, this bookstore was a little unbearable, so it had to be closed for renovation.
