"The shops in the capital must be very expensive, right?" Qingwan has thought about this question for a long time.

Lu Yanyi was noncommittal: "With me, don't worry." Okay, let's not talk about that, I still have something to do, let's go first, and you guys should have dinner and rest early. Tomorrow morning, I will come to pick you up on time. ”

After Lu Yanyi left, Steward Ding came up and asked, "Miss Wei, can you set the table now?" ”

"Don't worry, Uncle Ding, these are all newly planted?" Qingwan looked at the flowers and trees in the courtyard.

"Yes, the young master has sent several letters, and the instructions are detailed," Steward Ding said with a smile: "I am also an old man of the Lu family, I have served three generations of masters, and I have never seen the second young master so concerned about one thing, no matter how big or small, I have been instructed." In fact, if there are special guests, they all live in the house on Gongyou Street, and since they bought it, no outsiders have ever lived here. ”

"Special guests?"

"Yes, in the past, the young lady of the Xu family, who was married to our young master, was frail and sick since she was a child, and she came to the capital several times to see her, and she lived on Gongyou Street." Steward Ding said speculation, just chattering about one thing, but suddenly found that he was speechless, and stopped curtly: "Oh, there are a few guests, they have all stayed, our young master has a good heart, whoever has difficulties, they are all treated equally, but not only for Miss Xu." ”

Qingwan smiled and stopped mentioning this topic: "When your young master entered Beijing, did he often live in this house?" ”

"The young master himself always lives on both sides," Steward Ding said, "I accompany guests when they come, but this time the young master and the old slave said that they were worried that it would not be safe to live in the same house with Miss Wei, so they lived separately." ”

"That's what the young master really said?" Qingwan hurriedly asked.

"Yes," Steward Ding hurriedly replied: "The old slave doesn't know why, but the young master grew up watching the old slave since he was a child, and he didn't hide anything, and he heard that he was afraid that Miss Wei was in danger, so the young master avoided it." Specifically, the old slave didn't understand. Alas, the young master has not been easy for so many years, how many winds and waves have been over, and now, I don't know what happened. ”

Qingwan only then understood that Lu Yanyi was afraid of implicating her, so she specially arranged for her here, once she understood, she couldn't help but worry about Lu Yanyi, the scene of the assassination of the inn still seemed to be in front of her, this entered Beijing, and the big drama may be about to start.

Steward Ding had already put dinner on the table, and he had been in a hurry for a few days, but he didn't feel that it was too hard, but once he settled down, a sense of tiredness suddenly hit people.

The sister and brother simply ate a few bites and went back to their respective rooms to settle in.

Qingwan put away a few makeup items she brought, and went into the space to read the book again a few times, until she fell asleep.

Early the next morning, Qingwan just got up, and several girls had already prepared all the toiletries, and after a brief two-bite breakfast, they heard the movement of a carriage outside the door.

"Brother Lu, you came here so early?" After getting along along the way, Hanguan and Lu Yanyi already had a deep relationship, and when they saw him, they became happy.

"When I look back at the shop, I want to take you around again," Lu Yanyi said with a smile: "When you enter the school, you can't go in and out casually, and it will not be easy to come out and play at that time." ”

"Thank you, Brother Lu!" Hanguan said excitedly: "You always think so thoughtfully! Not only to me, but especially to my sister, I can see it clearly, and I am really considerate! ”

Hanguan always deliberately said good things for Lu Yanyi, I don't know how many times he said it, Qingwan only pretended not to hear.

"How's it going, how did you sleep last night? Are the people here serving well? Lu Yanyi asked Qingwan gently.

"All right, thank you for your trouble." Qingwan replied lightly.

Lu Yanyi didn't care, and waited for the sisters and brothers to go out, so he rode a horse next to him and went together.

This time it was a long journey, and it took half an hour to arrive. Along the way, the noise is endless, and the scene of the provincial capital is really very different.

Hanguan lifted the curtain from time to time to look out, and said to his sister in surprise from time to time: "Look, I have never seen such a good carriage, and there are more than 20 people who are guarding it!" ”

"What's so strange about that?" Qingwan pulled his younger brother back: "At the feet of the Son of Heaven, you are either rich or expensive, and you are not ordinary people, you will understand in the future." Remember, when you arrive at the Guozijian, you must not always be surprised. ”

"I know!" Hanguan hurriedly smiled: "Isn't this in front of my family, I just said that!" ”

Qingwan smiled: "Where is this shop?" Haven't arrived after walking for so long? ”

As soon as he finished saying this, he heard that the carriage had stopped, and then the coachman said, "Miss Wei, Young Master Wei, has arrived." ”

As soon as the sister and brother got out of the car, they were stunned by the scene in front of them: they saw a newly decorated shop, standing on the side of the road, and even the plaque had been hung.

Qingwan's heart suddenly swelled with emotion, but he didn't expect that not only the residence, but even the pavement, he also helped to prepare so thoughtfully, it can be seen how much effort he has put into it.

Moreover, looking at this, it is not done in a day or two, at least it has to be prepared for more than a month. At that time, it was when the two were awkward, but Lu Yanyi quietly did so many things.

"This" Qingwan subconsciously turned her head to look at Lu Yanyi.

"Let's go, let's go in and have a look." Lu Yanyi did not answer directly, and walked to the store first.

The sister and brother had to keep up and enter the store, only to see that everything had been prepared and everything was ready, only the east wind was owed, and nothing was missing except for the goods.

A few guys were busy cleaning up in the store, and a few people came up to salute.

"This is the Wei Dong family," Lu Yanyi introduced, "In the future, the Wei Dong family will be in charge of the store." ”

"Yes, yes," the men promised.

"Alright, let's get busy." Lu Yanyi waved his hand, and after the guys went down, he asked Qingwan: "How is it here?" ”

"How long have you been preparing?"

"It's just a month's work," Lu Yanyi said lightly: "Even the day has been chosen, tomorrow is an auspicious day of the zodiac, you can open the store after you put the makeup in place." ”

Qingwan looked outside the store and pointed not far away: "Is there a palace?" How much rent do you have to use for such a location? ”

Her original intention was to pick a smaller shop in the capital, even if the place was more remote, so she had to do so. Expensive location, but the price is really too high.

"Don't worry, I originally rented this place, and now I will rent it to you," Lu Yanyi smiled slyly: "When the time comes, just give it to me along with the rent of the house." ”

Hearing him say this, besides, seeing that this place has been cleaned up, Qingwan knows that he can't refuse, and he quickly summed it up in his heart, the geographical location here is superior, which can attract the noblewomen of this area, but it is much more advantageous than the remote location, Qingwan is still confident in cosmetics, if it is coupled with such a location advantage, the prosperity of the business will be greatly improved, and when the time comes, as long as it can be more profitable, it will be able to repay Lu Yanyi's silver soon. So, she didn't say anything more.

In fact, Lu Yanyi's so-called rent collection, both of them seem to be mirrors in their hearts, but Qingwan still doesn't want to completely borrow his power now, and always thinks that he still wants to return the silver, so that his heart can be more stable. What the future of the two will be is still unknown.

"Okay, then I'll take this kindness." Qingwan said happily.

Lu Yanyi approached her, said in an ambiguous tone, and said in a low voice: "As long as you are satisfied." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw that the person in front of him had already walked away quickly.

Lu Yanyi smiled and walked over.

"There's a house behind here?" Qingwan asked, pointing to a small door at the back of the lobby.

"And the backyard, of course." Lu Yanyi said: "Go and see, the house is also very spacious." ”

The sister and brother pushed the door open and went out, and sure enough, after seeing this storefront, it was a small and exquisite house, although it was not big, but it was also very clean, and there was no problem for a few people. When you close the small door, you will be completely isolated from the shop in front of you, and it will be very quiet.

"Brother Guan, let's move here when we go back, right?" Qingwan said: "In this way, it is convenient for me to run the shop." ”

Hanguan was slightly stunned, but Lu Yanyi had already said: "It's all up to you, you can live wherever you want." ”

Several houses in the courtyard have been arranged very thoughtfully, which shows that Lu Yanyi has already made preparations, and both sides are very thoughtful for Qingwan.

Qingwan couldn't help but look at him softly: "Thank you." ”

"Do we still need to be so polite to each other?" Lu Yanyi said as if nothing happened: "In the future, the business will be booming, and I will still put the rent into the shares, you have to agree!" ”

Qingwan also smiled: "That's nature!" ”

"Second young master, Liu Gongzi, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, sent someone and said that you should come over." A small servant of the Lu family suddenly ran in and said.

Lu Yanyi frowned when she heard this, and said, "You just have to go, I and Brother Guan will go back by ourselves." Do not worry. ”

"Okay then," Lu Yanyi said: "The carriage is at the door, don't worry, take a good look at it, there is something inconsiderate in the shop." ”

After saying that, he went out and got on the horse.

Here Qingwan looked at it carefully, Lu Yanyi was indeed very thoughtful, and she didn't have to worry about everything anymore.

Seeing that it was noon, Qingwan took out the silver and rewarded it to the men: "Let's go buy some wine and drink!" ”

The guys were very happy, and took the bounty and thanked them one after another.

Qingwan smiled, and went out with her brother to get in the car, and she had to tidy up her makeup and get ready when she went back.

Back at the Xuanqian mansion, Hanguan went into his room and went to study. As soon as Qingwan sat down to take a breath, she heard a commotion outside the courtyard, mixed with the panicked voice of Steward Ding: "The young master has ordered, without Miss Wei's order, no idle people are allowed to come in!" ”
