Maybe it's because I ate a lot last night, Qian Qian and Zhang's hurry all day long, and they have already seen the gate of the capital before it gets dark. Before they got close to the city gate, the two of them actually saw the dark one again.

Dark One got Yan Huan's order, and was leading people out of the city to pick up the commander of the guards who came back with the carriage behind, because it was not a hurried errand, so he didn't go fast. As soon as he left the city, he saw the mother and daughter in the ruined temple coming in the direction of the city gate, so he stopped and said hello.

"Little Wuzi, your feet are not slow." Dark One sat on the horse and looked at Zhang and Qian Qian.

"Uncle, I'm seeing you again. Before I could thank you this morning, you guys will go first. Qian smiled and beckoned to the dark, and saw that the dark one was walking in the direction of the outside of the city, and he didn't ask much.

"It's just a matter of effort." Darken your head a little and say politely casually.

Qian Qian was troubled by the bright eyes of the capital, regretting that he was busy eating yesterday and did not ask people for some necessary information. She saw that Dian Yi was not in a hurry, so she asked: "Uncle, I have never been to the capital, can you tell me which direction I should go after entering the city, my mother and I are planning to rent a house for a long time." ”

"The imperial city sits in the north and faces south, the further north you go, the closer to the imperial city, most of the nobles live in the north, you want to rent a house, just go south." Dark Yi groaned slightly, took out a small wooden card and handed it to Qian Qian: "If you need it, you can take this and hand it to the shopkeeper of the Yuelai Inn in the south of the city, he will help after reading it." ”

Qian Qian didn't reach out to pick it up, but waved his hand again and again, and thanked the dark: "Thank you, uncle, I just know where to go, I can't trouble you anymore." ”

Qian Qian thought to himself, they and Dark One originally met in Pingshui, and they didn't have any friendship, and they had already accepted Dark One's care last night, although they were just handy, they couldn't help but know what was wrong. When we meet again today, Dark One has no obligation to continue to help them, and it is already very grateful to be able to stop and guide her. It would be too unsatisfying for her to accept the Dark One's wooden card again.

Seeing that she didn't accept the wooden card, she didn't force it, put the wooden card into her arms again, and continued: "You can go to the south to inquire, there are many people over there, and there have always been many rented houses. ”

Qian Qian and Zhang's family bent down to thank him, hesitated slightly, and instructed Qian Qian: "Try not to go to the southwest corner, there are many nobles' family members and servants living in that area, and there are the most ruffians." ”

"I see, uncle." Qian Qian smiled and thanked him again, nodded darkly, and left. After Qian Qianmu saw him leave, he took Zhang's hand and walked all the way to the city gate.

Zhang looked at the magnificent arrow tower in the capital, and felt a little dazed, she has lived in a small village for half her life, and the farthest road she has traveled before is from her mother's house to her mother-in-law's house, and it is very rare to go to the town with her husband once in a while.

This time she had no choice but to take her daughter to travel far away, she took out the courage to break the boat, and now seeing the thick walls and towering gates of the capital, she can't help but wonder if she is wrong, in such a prosperous city, can she really live with her daughter? However, now, there is no way back, Zhang's eyes gradually became firm, she took Qian Qian's hand, and asked softly, "Are you afraid?" ”

Qian Qian shook his head and smiled: "Don't be afraid, we will definitely be able to live." Mother, don't be afraid, there is me. ”

"Hmm." Zhang also smiled, and gently tidied up Qian Qian's clothes: "Mother is not afraid." Mother and you......"

Zhang took Qian Qian to line up behind the crowd entering the city, and when it was close to evening, there were not many people, and it was their turn after a while. The official guarding the city inspected their roads, pointed to Qian Qian and asked Zhang: "Is this your child?" ”

Zhang nodded yes, the official made a blank face, and scolded: "It's clearly written on the road, it's a girl, why do you bring a boy and want to go into the city in a fool's way?" What an attempt. ”

Zhang hurriedly nodded and smiled: "This official, Wu Niang is a girl, I am a woman, I am a woman, I take my child on the road alone, I feel uneasy, so I pretend to be a boy and hurry, I don't believe you can find someone to check it." ”

Hearing this, the official stared at Qian Qian's face a few times, nodded and didn't reason again, stamped the road, and signaled them to go over after collecting the city gate tax, and was not particularly embarrassed.

Qian Qian saw that although the face of this official was very similar to that of some city people to see the countrymen on top, he did not have any behavior of buying high and stepping on low, so he boldly asked more: "Official, I entered the city for the first time with my mother, I don't know what taboos there are." ”

The official waved his hand, with a little disgust on his face, but he also replied: "Don't run around after entering the city, no one can save you if you collide with the nobles." You go straight to the south, and the north is not where you should go. ”

Qian Qian thought to himself that this official was actually not bad, so he nodded and thanked him. Because she was polite, the official pointed out more: "If you want to find a cheap place to stay, go to Xinghua Street in Nanshi to find it." ”

This is what Zhang wanted to know the most, and immediately happily agreed, and found two big coins from the package and handed them to the servant, although the official was a little disdainful, he also took it, and waved them impatiently to let them go.

After entering the city, Qian Qian and Zhang's did not dare to walk around, and according to the instructions of the officials, they inquired all the way to Xinghua Street. There are indeed several carriage and horse shops on Xinghua Street, and the Yuelai Inn is the largest of them. Zhang and Qian Qian found the cheapest inn on Xinghua Street for one night, and the next morning they were ready to go out to rent a house.

Where to rent a house, Zhang and Qian Qian are both black-eyed, Qian Qian thought about it, although he didn't take the wooden card of the dark one, but it's not that he can't go to the Yuelai Inn to ask, if you don't look for the shopkeeper, you can also find the little second brother to ask! The little two of the inn are sent every day, and there are many and miscellaneous people in contact, so there may not be no way.

Qian Qian discussed it with Zhang, and Zhang also felt reasonable, so the mother and daughter went to Yuelai Inn.

At the door of Yuelai Inn stood a little second brother with a round face and a smart face, and he was very festive when he looked at it with a smile. When the little two saw Qian Qian's mother and daughter coming, they didn't have a little slack off in plain clothes, and they let the two of them go in with a smile on their faces.

Seeing this, Zhang hurriedly gave Xiao Er a salute and apologized in his mouth: "Little brother, I'm sorry, I'm just here to inquire about something." ”

Xiao Er saw Zhang's gift, hurriedly turned sideways, shouted all the way and didn't dare, heard Zhang's say that he just had something to inquire, and he didn't show an unhappy look, and still said very enthusiastically: "Auntie, you said, as long as I know, I know everything." ”

Zhang inquired about Xiao Er, but there was a way to rent a house, Xiao Er immediately nodded: "Yes, the tenant of Aunt Li in the back street has just moved out, auntie, wait a minute, I will tell our shopkeeper, and I will take you over." With that, he ran backwards. After a while, the second child came back and took Qian Qian's mother and daughter all the way to find Aunt Li.
