Song Dazhong helped Yin Li move his luggage, and followed Dian Xingyue to the back street to buy quilts and other things.

After Yin Li settled down in the East Wing Courtyard, he crossed his horse and went back to continue to supervise the work.

On the side of the west wing, Yan Xiaoxiao had a lot of luggage, so she settled down first.

After a while, the students of Yan Kingdom also moved in one after another.

Steward Qin was attentive to his work, and he found a woman to do work so quickly in a place where he was not familiar with life, which can be described as fast. Yin Li asked him to pay for two old mothers, but he found a widow of about thirty-five. The widow, surnamed Liu, lived in a remote village, had no children and no daughters, and after her husband died, she was sold to traffickers.

The traffickers had no choice but to sell at a loss for two gold coins.

In the afternoon, Steward Qin went out to buy quilts and happened to meet him.

He made an impromptu decision and paid to sell the death deed in the hands of the traffickers.

Then he took Widow Liu home, washed and changed clothes, combed a little, her figure was slightly chubby, and her appearance was not bad, and she expected that the prince would not dislike it, so she dared to take Widow Liu to the study to meet Yin Li and Dian Xingyue. Yin Li couldn't see it, but when he heard Widow Liu's greeting in a very tender tone, like a young girl, he said, "Steward Qin, I asked you to hire two old mothers to come over to work, how can you bring back a girl?"

Steward Qin smiled and said, "Where is the girl, this eldest sister has already promised someone, and her husband just passed away last year." ”

"What, it's a widow!" Yin Li was extremely surprised, his heart and eyes rolled, he laughed twice, and said: "Steward Qin, you just arrived yesterday, and you haven't been familiar with the human face yet, you can really bring back a widow so quickly." ”

Dian Xingyue listened indecently, and hurriedly interjected: "It's a surviving person, not a widow." ”

Yin Li said: "Isn't it all the same meaning, don't keep looking for my words." ”

Steward Qin understood the meaning of Yin Li's words, his old face couldn't help but turn red, and he said ashamedly: "Little Shizi, where have you got, the old slave has just arrived, let alone people, it's just that I haven't been familiar with a few streets, where do I recognize others." Xiao Shizi, listen to what I tell you. Speaking of this, he paused slightly, and then told Yin Li and Dian Xingyue about the cause and effect.

Yin Li learned the reason and said, "I see, you have done a good deed. ”

Steward Qin glanced at Widow Liu, who was standing next to her, and said: "This big sister let people be locked in the pig cage, whether she ate well or didn't sleep well, the old slave couldn't bear it when she saw it, and thought that our house had just been rented and was short of manpower, so the old slave bought her and regarded it as saving her from the fire pit." The old slave asked her just now, but she recognized a few words, she was an understanding person, and she still did things such as buying vegetables and cooking, washing and cleaning, and folding quilts and sending tea. ”

Yin Li stopped his hand: "You don't report everything to your grandfather in the Hou Mansion, this is the same as the Hou Mansion, you are the housekeeper, what to buy, what to use, you just have an idea, I don't want to take care of these miscellaneous things." Oh, it's getting dark, Sister Xingyue, are you hungry?"

Dian Xingyue nodded: "A little." ”

Steward Qin looked at Widow Liu and coughed dryly.

"The slave is going to cook. When Widow Liu heard the cough, she reacted, glanced at Steward Qin with great gratitude, then sighed, turned around and went out to cook. However, before she could cook the meal, Gan Ping stopped and handed over an invitation, saying that his father Gan Mao had set up a banquet at home, and sincerely invited Yin Yan and his family to the mansion for the banquet.

The son of the proprietor came to invite him in person, but it was difficult to push it, and it was not easy to push.

Yan Zi knew the number of etiquette, and did not dare to bring anyone, so she only went to the banquet with Yin Li.

......

This Gan Mao is not an ordinary person, but the commander of the palace guards.

Although it is only the third grade of the official residence, he is in charge of the palace guard and has great power.

If nothing else, let's just say that the style of Ganfu is not inferior to that of a first-class master.

Yin Li and Yan Zimei came to Ganfu, Gan Mao went out to greet each other, and said with a smile: "Lord Zimei, after many years, are you okay?" I want you and I to go to the examination room together and climb the immortal list together, at that time, everyone was very high-spirited, and after so many years, I am almost old, but you are still as beautiful as before." ”

Yan Zimei bowed slightly and sighed: "Time flies, everything is no longer the same." ”

Hearing this, Yin Li couldn't help but feel sad: "No, it's my father who hurt you." ”

Gan Mao felt Yan Zimei's desolation, his face stiffened, and then he smiled: "You still don't like to move around as before, you see that since you have arrived in Taichang, why don't you come to my house to see your old friends, if it weren't for the dog to take back the contract to show me today, I am afraid that it will be difficult to see you and me." As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Yin Li, and said with a smile: "Xiao Shizi fought last night, jumped three times in a row, and both defeated the enemy and broke the realm, if it wasn't for the dog to tell me personally, I wouldn't believe it was true." When I went to bed last night, I was still thinking that I would meet Xiao Shizi when I was free, how could I think that the opportunity for you and me would come so quickly. ”

Although Yin Li couldn't open his eyes, his ears were not ambiguous.

He could hear the sincerity in Gan Mao's words.

Immediately arched his hand: "Lord Gan is gracious, I dare not be ashamed." ”

Gan Mao said: "What's not hospitable, you rented my house, we have the feeling of host and guest, shouldn't we interact with each other, besides, I'm just a little bit of wine, I still feel a little shabby when I invite you over." Oh, standing at the door and talking, it's not hospitality, let's talk while drinking, two of you, please. ”

The three of them entered the house and went to the lobby first, but turned into the Accord in the side hall.

There were several low tables and futons in the Accord, and the three of them sat down in turn.

After a while, the servant brought the wine and food, and the maid also came in to serve the wine.

During the banquet, Gan Mao didn't say anything else, except for some gossip with Yan Zimei, he only asked about the recent situation of Yan Guogong and Nanyang Hou politely, the atmosphere was elegant, there was neither discomfort nor climax. At the end of the banquet, Gan Mao led Yan Zimei and Yin Li to the lobby to drink a cup of sobering tea, and at the same time ordered his subordinates to summon Gan Pingping over.

As soon as Gan Pingping arrived, Gan Mao instructed: "Ping'er, Xiao Shizi left his hometown to study in my imperial capital, it is not easy to be honest without relatives and no reason, you are in the same session as him, and you must get along with him in the future, we are the host and guest relationship, we can't rent out the house as the owner, and we don't care about anything, in short, if Xiao Shizi encounters difficulties, you must do your best to help, and if you can't help, you can go back to my house and tell me, you know?"

Gan Pingping bowed: "The child understands." ”

Yin Li also hurriedly said: "Then thank you first." ”

Gan Mao shook his hand: "You're welcome." ”

After drinking the sobering tea, the words are finished.

Yin Li and Yan Zimei got up to say goodbye, and Gan Mao asked the coachman to drive to see them off.
