Chapter 326

Five days later, on the thirteenth day of the lunar month, Ji Kang, Xie Huang and An finally arrived in the capital despite the wind and snow.

Although the snow was not heavy on this day, under the persuasion of the elders, Lin Wan did not go to the city gate to greet her, and could only look at the Ye Mansion on Moxiang Street.

The holiday time of the women's academy has always been synchronized with the Guozijian, and this time is the season of the college's annual examination, so it stands to reason that Lin Wan should prepare for the exam in the academy.

But since the chickenpox epidemic, Lin Wan has not returned to the academy, not because she doesn't want to, but because she really can't spare it to go back to the academy to study.

Because An Huijuan added a big fat boy to the second room of Zhennanhou Mansion on the tenth day of the lunar month, in order to let An Huijuan recuperate with peace of mind, Lin Wan temporarily took over the housekeeping of the second room at the request of Lin Hongfei.

If it weren't for the fact that Ji Kang and the others would definitely arrive in the capital today, Lin Wan might not have gone out!

It should be a snowy day, the road is slippery and difficult to walk, and it is not until near noon that I hear the sound of cars and horses outside.

The horse from Qingzhou finally arrived at Moxiang Street.

Hearing the sound of cars and horses outside, Lin Wan, who was dragged by the Wu family and was standing under the porch waiting, couldn't hold back her excitement anymore and ran directly to the door against the wind and snow.

"Ouch, Wanwan, slow down, be careful not to fall!" Wu's hands were empty, and when he looked up, he saw that Lin Wan had run away with her skirt, and she shouted with concern while quickly following up.

Dong Xue and Qi Niangzi also hurriedly followed their respective masters with umbrellas.

"Sister, why did you come out, go back quickly, it's so cold!" As soon as Ye Shen helped Jikang out of the carriage, he heard the movement behind him, and when he looked back and saw that it was Lin Wan, his brows furrowed.

Lin Wan has been really hard these days, first taking care of Lin Yuan, who was suffering from chickenpox, for more than half a month in the closed Qingyunju, and then taking care of An Huijuan, who had just given birth to a child, and taking charge of the housekeeping of the second room.

Not only has he lost weight, but his face is not as ruddy as before.

With such a physical condition, there is a great chance of getting sick from the wind!

"Sir is finally here! Wanwan can think of you! Lin Wan didn't seem to hear Ye Shen's complaints and concerns, but just pounced directly on Ji Kang, looking up at Ji Kang and excitedly expressing his thoughts.

Ye Shen pursed his lips and looked at Lin Wan silently, a trace of complicated emotions flashed in his slightly drooping eyes.

"Wanwan only has Mr. Ji in her eyes, so sad!" At this time, Xie Huang, who had just gotten off the other carriage, covered his chest and looked at Lin Wan with very hurt eyes.

Lin Wan knew that Xie Huang was joking, but she was also very cooperative with Xie Huang, turned to Xie Huang and said, "Wanwan has seen Master Xie, and Wanwan naturally misses Master Xie very much!" ”

"It's cold outside, go in and talk again!" Wu hurriedly stepped forward to welcome everyone in.

Even if it wasn't cold outside, this movement had already alarmed the always quiet Moxiang Street, and several families had opened their doors to inquire about the movement.

Moxiang Street is basically a family of scholars, and basically every household in the neighborhood has a scholar who will participate in next year's examination, and the movement is not too big.

This time, Ji Kang and Xie Huang came to Beijing with the New Year's gift sent to the capital from Qingzhou Mansion. Butterfly

This time, it was Qi An and his father and son who came to the capital to give New Year's gifts.

But I haven't seen him for more than a year, obviously he is only one year older than Lin Wan and Ye Shen, and now Qi Jun is almost half a head taller than Ye Shen.

What surprised Lin Wan was Qi Jun's words and deeds, but it was only more than a year of experience, and he looked quite sophisticated, if Qi Jun's face was very similar to Qi Anhe, Lin Wan really couldn't believe that this was such a timid little grass, not at all like an eleven-year-old child.

Lin Wan originally planned to take Ji Kang to live in Zhennan Hou Mansion temporarily, but Ji Kang Wanyan refused.

As early as after receiving the news that Ji Kang and Xie Huang were promoted at the same time, the Wu family began to prepare, and insisted on cleaning up two small courtyards in this little sanjin's house, which were specially given to Ji Kang and Xie Huang who entered Beijing to take the exam.

It's just that it didn't take long for him to receive a letter from Xie Huang, in which Xie Huang made it clear that he would bring his wife, children and mother with him when he entered Beijing.

In order not to disturb the Ye family, the Ye family was specially asked to help him find a suitable courtyard in the capital, or rent or buy.

Xie Huang wanted to bring his wife, children and mother to the capital together, and it was indeed a little inappropriate to live in Ye's house, so Ye's father asked Jin Wang to find a suitable courtyard for Xie Huang near Moxiang Street.

It's also a coincidence, the manager of the tooth shop who traded the Ye house with the Ye family happened to have a small courtyard to rent, and after Jin Wang went to see it, he felt that it was suitable except for renting and not selling, so he asked the manager to keep this yard first, and by the way, asked the manager to communicate with the owner to see if he could sell it directly.

Ye Damin and Xie Huang have known each other for ten years, although there was a incident during which the Xie clan drove the Ye family out of Hongfeng Village, it did not affect the friendship between the two, and they were naturally very concerned about helping Xie Huang rent and buy a house.

Knowing that Jin Wang had found a suitable courtyard in the alley behind Moxiang Street, Ye Damin naturally wanted to take a look in person.

After reading it, Ye Damin decided to buy this small courtyard.

The manager is really powerful, and I don't know how he persuaded the owner, or this yard was originally going to be sold, but when Ye Damin came to see the house, this small yard had already been changed from rent to sale, but the price of sale was not cheap.

Ye Damin really likes this small courtyard, after some bargaining, he bought this courtyard at a price of 2,500 taels, Ye Damin paid a deposit of 20% of the house price, and the two parties agreed to pay off the balance and carry out the transfer procedures after Xie Huang came to the capital.

"Master, can Master Xie get so much silver?" After explaining to the old servant who stayed in the small courtyard to guard the door, Jin Wang and Ye Damin went back to Moxiang Courtyard, thinking of the price of the small courtyard, he always felt that it was not suitable, and asked cautiously.

Xie Huang should, no, he definitely can't take out so much silver.

Even if Xie Huang didn't want to take over this courtyard after he came to the capital, either because he had no money in his hand, or because he was dissatisfied with this small courtyard, Ye Damin would not regret it, after all, the houses in this neighborhood are still quite tight.

In Ye Damin's view, although this small courtyard is not in Moxiang Street, the environment is not worse than Moxiang Street, and most of the people living nearby are scholars.

After discovering that Xie Huang's wife, children and mother did not follow Xie Huang to get out of the car, everyone felt that something was wrong, and they were even more surprised when they saw Xie Huang wearing plain clothes.

After Xie Huang's explanation, everyone learned that the old village chief died in his sleep with a smile soon after learning the news of Xie Huang's promotion.

So although Xie Huang came to the capital with him this time, he couldn't participate in next year's entrance examination.

Xie Huang's family, who are filial piety, naturally did not plan to enter the Ye Mansion, but fortunately, the Wu family had already asked people to clean up the courtyard in the back alley, and even the brazier and kang were burned in advance, and the Xie family could be placed when they went there, as for eating, let the next person send it over from here!
