Chapter 146: Mutton Soup is Here
Liu Chenxing raised his head and saw the two-story vermilion square door sign and the three big characters "Yongchongfang" written on it.
Just now, Uncle Liu said that Chang'an City is rich in the west and expensive in the east, that is, most of the people living in the east are high-ranking officials and nobles. And the famous Pingkangfang in the red light district of Chang'an, there are also powerful people living around it, which means that Pingkangfang is in the east of the city.
They entered the city all the way from Mingde Gate, went directly to Suzaku Street, and then turned east along Suzaku Street to the fourth crossroads, and then passed through two squares, and arrived at the "Yongchongfang" where it is now.
Therefore, Uncle Liu also lives in the east of the city at all, and is in the same direction as Pingkangfang, even if it is far away, it is far away.
I was almost fooled by Uncle Liu.
I don't know what Uncle Liu is worried about, she is also a big move, why can't she go to Pingkangfang to see it, didn't she hear that the current ladies and ladies also want to recruit prostitutes to sing and dance for their banquets......
However, he dared to be angry and didn't dare to speak, Liu Chenxing could only slander in his heart, and then he lost it, so he followed into the gate guarded by the doorman and entered the "Yongchongfang".
The inside of the fang, like the street outside the fang, is a cross-shaped street, and this cross-shaped street divides the fang into four areas, like a huge "Tian" character. The four areas within the word "Tian" each have a cross-shaped alley, like a smaller character "Tian".
Among them, the cross street is about 15 meters wide, and the cross lane is about 56 meters wide. These two types of streets and alleys of different widths crisscross the neighborhood into 16 settlements, in which the dwellings of the inhabitants are distributed.
In addition, within these sixteen settlements, there is a two-meter-wide path, which is called a song.
It is enough to see that the square is crisscrossed by streets, alleys, and curved roads, so that Yongchongfang, a medium-sized square, can accommodate at least more than 10,000 people.
Therefore, walking in the workshop, the road is straight, the traffic is busy, and the pedestrians are weaving.
But before the brothers and sisters could take a look at the inside of Chang'an, Uncle Liu's place of residence arrived.
It is very easy to find, just north of the west gate of Yongchongfang, that is, on the edge of the square gate.
They entered the square from the west gate, and as soon as they stepped on the street with a width of 15 meters, they walked about 100 steps, and then turned into a winding path about 2 meters wide on the north side, and then walked less than 20 steps, and stopped in front of the narrow wooden gate that was about 1.5 meters wide.
"Uncle, are we here?"
Probably along the way, the biggest feeling of Chang'an City is "big", followed by more cars and more horses, unexpectedly just into Yongchongfang, not a few steps, they arrived not to say, but also into such a narrow road, even the door is short and small, Liu Qingshan forgot for a while that the road in Beizhou City is narrow, and he immediately said "Huh".
Liu Chenxing also felt something, but he thought that "it is not easy to live in Chang'an", so he looked at the two-meter-wide road in front of the narrow wooden door of Uncle Liu's house, nodded thoughtfully, and began to think about the price of goods involved in Uncle Liu's letter, how much should such a living environment cost?
By the way, it depends on how big the yard is and how many houses there are?
As soon as he thought of this, Liu Chenxing set his eyes on the wooden door.
The brother and sister trust Liu Wensu very much, and they don't hide their expressions, Liu Wensu can see the thoughts of the brother and sister at a glance, but it's not that the nephew is not good enough, but the niece is too different.
Liu Wensu didn't say much, only nodded "um", pushed open the courtyard door, and led Liu Chenxing's little brown horse into the courtyard first.
Liu Chenxing was very curious about Uncle Liu's residence.
The general impression is that a man's home living alone is inevitably a little messy and lacks the breath of life. But a man as warm as jade like Uncle Liu should be different.
Hahaha, of course, Uncle Liu is also a twenty-eight man after all, and there is only one man left at an older age in ancient times. However, although he did not marry a wife, maybe there was a beautiful little maid hidden in the courtyard, who read with a lamp at night, and added fragrance to her red sleeves.
When you think about it, you just want to think about it.
Liu Chenxing hurriedly stopped her thoughts, and only secretly said that she was caring about Uncle Liu for Grandma Liu and Auntie, so she cheered up, looked at the courtyard with bright eyes, and then followed closely.
But he raised one foot to step through the courtyard gate, and the other foot had not yet fallen to the ground, only to hear a "squeak" behind him, and a young female voice with a Chang'an accent said softly: "Liu Xiaoshu is back?" ”
really wanted to come to something, Liu Chenxing immediately retracted his feet that were stopped in mid-air, and heard the female voice "ah" again, and said: "This is Liu Xiaoshu and a guest......
Before he spoke, he saw Liu Qingshan dressed in Confucian clothes, carrying a basket on his back, and carrying a white cloth bag on the back of the horse he was leading. ”
Even their brothers and sisters knew this, Liu Chenxing could widen his eyes when he heard it, took a deep breath, and did a good job of mental construction, and then turned his head.
I saw that the two-meter-wide square curve was opposite, and it was also a portal of the same size as Uncle Liu's courtyard gate, and the courtyard door had been opened at this time, and a sixteen or seventeen-year-old lady was standing at the door.
The little lady was born quite well, with a plump body, an oval goose egg face, fair skin, big and bright eyes, because of the grease, she looked very good, and her eyes were bright and bright.
Although I am a little reluctant that once Uncle Liu marries a wife and has children, there will be closer people, and I don't know how many places I will rank behind, but the appearance of the lady in Tsing Yi is still worthy of Uncle Liu, Liu Chenxing nodded slightly when he looked at it.
As soon as Liu Wensu heard the voice of the lady next door, he put down the reins of the horse and walked out of the yard. As he spoke, he glanced at Liu Chenxing, who was calm and calm, but in fact, his eyes had already revealed the heart of excitement and gossip, and added, "The extra meals will be counted as wealth by Aunt Cheng." ”
I see.
This little lady in Tsing Yi is the eldest daughter of the next-door neighbor Cheng family.
Uncle Liu is estimated to also uphold the chauvinism of the gentleman's distant kitchen, and if he is too lazy to cook, he will hand over the twilight food to the Cheng family next door, and he will pay the corresponding food expenses.
After Liu Chenxing listened to Uncle Liu's words, the curiosity that had just ignited in his heart disappeared suddenly.
Seeing Liu Chenxing's suddenly boring expression, Liu Wensu's thin lips were slightly hooked, and the corners of his mouth were raised happily.
Aunt Cheng also smiled happily, it turned out that this female jinshi who was better than herself was Liu Xiaoshu's niece, and she greeted enthusiastically: "Liu Xiaoshu's nephew and niece, so young is a jinshi, and he is really as young and promising as Liu Xiaoshu." Today, Ah Niang looked like it was about to enter winter, so she stewed mutton, and the two Jinshi came just in time! ”
