356. Variation

"The little monk is shallow, but he doesn't know what this kind of antiquity means." The little monk shook his head at Quan Rou, "If the girl is interested, you can ask the abbot master or a few masters for advice, I think they should be clear." ”

"Is this an antiquity?" Kwon Rou blinked, not intending to go in first.

It's rare to catch someone and ask about related things, and she won't let it go easily.

This little monk looked at it, although he was not as smart as Qingzhi, but he also talked a lot, and Quan Rou could give Quan Rou a sentence or two back if he asked, "This Jinling was originally the capital of the previous dynasty, and many buildings are left over from the previous dynasty. ”

She knows that. Jinling City is now regarded as taking over the ancient capital of the previous dynasty.

Moreover, it is not necessarily something from the previous dynasty. After all, the ancient capital of almost all dynasties before the Great Zhou Dynasty was in Jinling City.

Today's prosperity of Jinling is also inseparable from this.

The little master has tried his best to explain to Quan Rou. After all, he is also young, and he doesn't look like Qingzhi who follows the abbot and serves him closely. Naturally, I won't be able to understand so many things.

So he can say so much to Quan Rou, it should be all the things that the little master knows.

Quan Rou didn't embarrass anyone. She smiled and thanked her, "Thank you, little master, for your doubts." ”

The begonias on the side also nodded with a look of understanding. For begonias, the girls who serve people, where will they pay attention to these things.

I can only say that listening to what the little master said, Begonia really felt that this thing seemed to have seen many times. I'll go back to the Hou Mansion in a while, and I'll have to look for it.

She was thinking about it in her heart.

The little master in front said a little shyly, "The girl is polite, please come inside." ”

He put on a gesture of invitation in his hand, bowed his head, and walked up the three-story stone staircase in front of him, and in front of him was a red wooden door with only two people standing side by side so wide, because the three-story stone staircase was not low, separating the tower from the surrounding trees and flowers, as if a separate boundary.

There was no window on the first floor of the tower, and the little master stepped forward and knocked on the door, and it opened to the inside.

Showing Mama Gong's face, there was no warmth in her eyes, but when she saw someone coming, she still nodded slightly. "Lady Quan."

This voice was cold and cold, and the tone of speech was the same as when Mama Gong first saw Quan Rou.

Quan Rou didn't feel anything, if Mama Gong was suddenly very good to her, she should be worried. This attitude is normal.

She smiled, "The county lord is unwell today and can't run far, so he called me to come over to see the nineteen girls for the county lord." ”

In a word, she simply explained why she came today instead of the county lord of Hui'an.

Mama Gong didn't answer, but nodded to the little master.

The little master looked a little afraid of the palace grandmother, kept his head down, recited the sentence of Amitabha, and said goodbye to Quan Rou, "The little monk will retire first." ”

As he spoke, he turned around and went down the stairs, and Quan Rou watched his figure fly away.

Slowly retracted his gaze, and looked at the palace grandmother who was guarding in front of this not-so-spacious wooden door, "I don't know where Nineteen is now?" ”

"Nineteen girls are upstairs," Gong Mama looked Quan Rou up and down, as if she had no intention of letting her in.

Quan Rou was not embarrassed, just stood there so generously, staring at herself. The expression on his face is very leisurely.

Mama Gong looks at people like this, and she doesn't mean to be very embarrassed for Quan Rou.

After all, she had been subjected to much more scrutiny and contempt than she was now.

Looking at herself like this, it's really nothing to Quan Rou.

If you love to see it, you can see it, and she is not too good-looking to see people.

Quan Rou stood there generously and showed herself, but the begonia, who had been supporting her on the side, felt that there was something wrong with Mama Gong, so she hurriedly said, "Mama, the county lord specially asked someone to sew a few spring shirts for the nineteen girls this time, as well as the bracelets with gold silk pinched flowers that came from Kyoto, all of which were brought to the nineteen girls." ”

Mama Gong looked up behind the two people, and the girls who followed each held a box in their hands, some big and some small, but just looking at the way the girls lowered their eyebrows and hugged the box tightly with their two hands, they also knew that those things should be quite heavy.

Mama Gong opened her mouth at this time, "Miss Quan, come with me." ”

"Thank you, Mama," Quan Rou was about to step in, and Begonia breathed a sigh of relief, and then heard Mama Gong say again, "You guys, put down your things, and wait outside." ”

The voice was soft and cold, and the few little girls who followed behind were all just here, and they had never seen Mama Gong, only listening to Mama Gong's indifferent words, they were all taken aback, and immediately lowered their heads and said yes, and they all quickly took the things and put them down, and then they all retreated, not daring to cross the rules at all.

Quan Rou looked at the little girls behind her, and then at the palace grandmother who had closed the door and walked to her, "Grandma worked hard." ”12

She said.

Mama Gong still has no expression, it seems that there will never be any waves in those eyes, and she only bows her head slightly for Quan Rou's bad words, and she has no intention of delving.

"The girl comes with me." She said, looking forward to herself.

Haitang was also worried that Quan Rou would feel unhappy or something, so she whispered to Quan Rou, "Girl, don't take it to heart, Mama Gong is like this to everyone, even the county lord has no choice." ”、

She said it quietly, and she said it in Kwon Rou's ear.

Quan Rou listened and nodded, indicating that she was fine.

What Mama Gong did to her, she didn't need to take it to heart.

People are just defending themselves. This is also very good, if you are too enthusiastic, Quan Rou really has to worry about whether she has any plans for herself.

It's okay to be polite in this way.

Anyway, she didn't come to see Mama Gong.

Quan Rou is still very clear about this.

Seeing that Quan Rou didn't seem to be lying, Haitang was relieved and helped Quan Rou to move forward.

The tower looks like it has no windows. But as soon as I entered, it was very bright, and I could see the sun shining down from the top, illuminating the whole hall.

There is nothing on the first floor, it is empty, there are a few rooms on the side, I think of it, it should be the palace grandmother and others live.

Quan Rou looked up, the tower was round, the middle from the first floor to the top, it was empty, and from this hall to look up, you could see the transparent glazed tiles laid on the top.

Seeing that she was interested, Haitang said to Quan Rou as she walked, "This Qingxin Courtyard is an old thing from the previous dynasty, with glazed tiles on it, and no windows are opened around the first floor, only relying on the light from above to illuminate,"

"Is that the same for the upper floors?" Quan Rou didn't pay much attention to the existence of Mama Gong. People don't really want to deal with themselves, so she doesn't have to stick it up and talk.

It's better to know everything you're interested in.

This tower looks strange from the outside, but when you enter it, it is even more inside.

Quan Rou was also quite interested in these things, so she just happened to be able to ask Begonia.

Although Haitang doesn't know much, she remembers everything she can see with her eyes. After all, I was here last time. "The top two floors are not the same as the first floor. There is a main room on the second floor, and the others have their own study, embroidery workshop, piano room..... which are often found in the house, but they are all used at present, but they are useless at present. The third floor is now the nineteen girls living alone, there is a big terrace outside, a Western glass door separates the inside and outside of the house, the last time the slave came, the nineteen girls stood on the terrace to see the scenery in the temple. ”

Haitang was a little excited when she talked about this, "The slave didn't have time to take a look last time, but I only listened to what the nineteenth girl said, the scenery is very beautiful, and the girl can go and see it later." ”

Seeing that she was so excited, Quan Rou was also interested, "Then I must have gone over to have a look." ”

This thing, everyone else has said so, so Quan Rou must be going to see it.

The tower was strangely built and uniquely located, and she was eager to see what she could see from here.

The two of them were talking in the back, and the palace grandmother in front of them only thought they couldn't hear it, took them up the stairs, turned around, and went to the third floor.

The middle of the entire third floor was divided into the main hall, which was where Lu Shijiu lived now.

There was a tea room outside, and the two slightly older grandmothers were kneeling here, and when they saw Gong Mama and Quan Rou and others, they all knelt directly, but what they said sounded a little strange in their accents.

Before Quan Rou could ask, Haitang had already explained, "It's from the southwest, Miao Jiang's grandmother, and it's said that she is good at Gu medicine,"

Gu doctor? Quan Rou glanced up and down at the two grandmothers a few times, but did not speak.

In the main hall facing them, a little girl was heard crisply, "Ah! ”

Then there was the sound of running out.

The door was pushed open, and Lu Shijiu staggered towards Quan Rou with his little skirt, shouting in his mouth, "Sister Quan, Sister Quan!" ”

"Hey," Quan Rou squatted down, took her in her arms, and looked Lu Shijiu up and down.

In just a few days, the child's original baby fat face had already lost weight, and Quan Rou hugged her, and even felt the bones on the child's thin body.

No wonder Begonia looks distressed.

Quan Rou sighed in her heart and touched the top of Lu Nineteen's head, "Nineteen has lost a lot of weight." ”
