Inside the carriage, there was silence.

Both Asakusa and Bauhinia sat in the corner with their shoulders hunched, occasionally glancing at Meng Qingyun, who was as cold as ice.

Yuan Niang's face looked a little scary.

Meng Qingyun was not angry, but reflective.

From spring to autumn, it has been half a year since she came to this era, even if she has a girlfriend who can play with her and a father who loves her, she has never, still, not fully integrated into this world.

In other words, she always carries the concepts and habits of her previous life and deals with the interpersonal relationships of this world.

As the heir of a multinational chaebol, she lives a top-class life, and interacts with people of the same class as her.

A generation of Hao N, born with a golden spoon in their mouths, even brothers and sisters with the same starting point, will end up on completely different paths.

Those who become elites, inherit family business, and expand their career territory are a minority; There are many who lead the family fund to eat, drink and have fun, relying on family power and connections, even if they invest with their feet, they can get rich returns. Therefore, both men and women have a somewhat serious outlook on life in the world of flowers.

Like Chen Erlang, a gentleman who doesn't do anything about production, she has seen a lot in her previous life. There are many men like him, in order to improve their status in the family, to pursue her and please her.

If the other party is interesting, she will also call over to join in the fun at the party.

If the other party is boring, she won't even give a look.

It was probably this habit that caused Chen Erlang to misunderstand.

Chen Erlang is of course a frivolous habit, but her casualness is also an important reason for the mistakes.

"Alas......"

This sigh startled Asakusa, who was checking Zijing's injuries, and looked at Zijing.

"Yuan Niang, our family doesn't have to be afraid of the Yongkang Hou Mansion."

"Yes, their family only has a title of Linglu Mi, and the Marquis of Yongkang has no position. Our family is a real local family, no matter how poor the big officials are, they are still a Zhizhou, and no matter how capricious the second officials are, they will always enter Beijing to be an official next year, right? It's better than his family in any way. ”

Meng Qingyun was amused by the two maidservants who carefully comforted her.

"Where am I afraid of ......?"

She shook her head: "Forget it, don't mention these unhappy things." If Chen Erlang really dared to go back and ask her mother, he would naturally know the strength of the situation. ”

If it weren't for the fact that there were too many officials implicated in the Lu Wangfu case, and the officialdom in Yizhou and Mizhou changed blood, the officials couldn't bear to add more strings, so they let go of people like the Yongkang Hou Mansion who were not directly responsible. Otherwise, it is really hard to say whether the Yongkang Marquis Mansion is alive or dead now.

Chen Erlang's embroidered pillow, which ignores mundane affairs all day long, probably never thought that the big officials of the Meng family were demoted and exiled, and his mother still maintained contact with the Lu family.

The family is sometimes more reliable than the prince's mansion.

Back at Meng's house, Meng Qingyun temporarily put down the matter and began to arrange for someone to go to Bianjing to clean up the house.

She asked Green Smoke to find out the title deed of the Bianjing mansion.

With a population of more than one million at this time, Bianjing was the largest city in the world, from the inside to the outside, divided into the imperial city, the inner city, and the outer city.

Bai's wedding house is located in the west of the south of Longjin Bridge in the outer city, with a complete three-entry house and a small garden. Compared with the palace of the Houmen, this is naturally nothing, but in a place like Bianjing, where every inch of land is valuable, it is quite rare to have such a house.

This was bought by an official who was in a hurry to get rid of it when the old lady of the Bai family was doing business in Bianjing in the early years, otherwise even if the Bai family had this financial resources, they might not have this opportunity.

In "Tokyo Menghualu", it is written that the Zhouqiao Night Market, "go out of the Suzaku Gate until the Longjin Bridge." Go south from the state bridge, and eat on the street............ Until the Longjin Bridge has to stop the brain, it is called miscellaneous chewing, until the third watch. ”

This house is less than a mile away from Longjin Bridgehead, and the Huimin River is in the north, which is quite a prosperous and lively area.

Meng Qingyun has a certain understanding of the land price in Bianjing, looked at the area on the land deed, and quickly calculated that this house is worth about 15,000 taels, which is equivalent to about 15 million yuan.

It is quite in line with the forced style of Bianjing City as the imperial capital.

Not to mention ordinary people, even Kyoto officials, 80 percent of them can't afford to buy such a house.

However, Meng Qingyun, a local tyrant who spent 2,000 taels to buy a Go board and gave it to others for free, is not qualified to express such feelings.

She has been in charge for a period of time, and she has a number of talents and abilities of everyone in the house, and there is a steward named Wu Liu, who is shrewd, capable and loyal, and has gone to Bianjing to work a few times before, which is the most suitable.

In the middle of the afternoon, a housekeeper from the Yongkang Hou Mansion really came, saying that she had come to apologize to Meng Qingyun on the order of Mrs. Hou.

I brought a box of Nanzhu and a piece of high-grade Hetian jade seed material, which was for Meng Qingyun. There were also some internal wound medicines, and a pair of red gold bracelets, which were given to the beaten maid Bauhinia.

The mother-in-law sat down and said respectfully: "Our lady said that she blamed her for neglecting Erlang in the past two years, and asked Yuan Niang not to be like him." Mrs. Ming'er sent him to his grandfather's house to study with his cousins for a year to collect his heart. ”

Sure enough, Chen Erlang didn't understand the situation, but Mrs. Yongkang Hou was clear. Since Mengjin can bring down the Lu Wangfu, how can a mere Yongkang Marquis Mansion be a problem.

The Li Shun who was sent to pretend to be the steward of the Bai family was still staying in their Zhuangzi, unless he killed someone and destroyed the corpse, he only needed to report his name and arrest him, and he could interrogate anything.

Meng Qingyun didn't know Mengjin's life and death at that time, and thought that he had no support, so he didn't dare to tear his face with the Yongkang Marquis Mansion and let Li Shun go.

Now that Mengjin is back, I see that Jingzhong also appreciates him very much, otherwise he would not have been sent to recruit twice in a row.

Mrs. Yongkang Hou judged the situation and naturally knew that she could not provoke the Meng family.

The family is a marquis anyway, such a low profile, and sent Chen Erlang away, Meng Qingyun didn't need to chase after him, smiled, and accepted these apologies.

The housekeeper of the Hou Mansion said some polite words, and then took his leave with humor.

But on the side of the East Courtyard, Meng Huiyun heard about it, and he didn't know whether he was angry with Chen Erlang or Meng Qingyun, so he smashed a pair of vases.

However, since she didn't dare to make trouble with Meng Qingyun, Meng Qingyun just didn't know.

In the south of the Yangtze River, the autumn rain is cold and the weather is completely cold.

In winter, the whole house has changed into thick clothes.

As a member of the family, Meng Qingyun began to prepare for the winter solstice.

As the saying goes, the winter solstice is as big as the year, and the ancestors must be sacrificed.

Early in the morning, Mengjin came back from the grass house, preparing to spend the winter solstice with his family.

As a result, he entered the mansion with his front foot, and his buttocks were not yet hot, and Wu Xiancheng of the county government, accompanied by the messenger from Bianjing, knocked on the door of the Meng Mansion again.

The official of the Bianjing Ministry of Officials sued the court, and with the latest hot report, he went to Yaxi in person to invite Mengjin to enter Beijing as an official.
