Li Shiqing got out of the carriage with the support of the maid, she looked at the prosperity that was different from the small county, and secretly decided in her heart that she must get ahead, even if she was low and small, it was better than going back to marry and be a main room.

Over the years, she has also seen clearly, although the status of the main room is high, but the high status does not mean that she can live comfortably, her mother is the main room, isn't she still fighting with her Amma's concubine all day long, and even if she hadn't given her Eniang ideas behind her back, there would still be her Eniang's status in the house.

If a woman wants to live comfortably, she has to make the men she serves comfortable, if she is comfortable, she will naturally say what she wants, and even let him personally dispose of the woman he doesn't like, which is not impossible.

She is thirteen years old this year, just in time to participate in the draft in two years, she came to the capital in advance to familiarize herself with the environment of the capital in advance, and to inquire about the powerful people in the capital.

Of course, it would be great if she could learn the means of serving men, she had heard that some grandmothers in the capital were more proficient in these methods, although she had also asked someone to teach her at home, but it was always a little unsatisfactory.

I also heard that the women trained by the grandmother in the capital can confuse the masters, but the process is a little embarrassing, but for the sake of glory and wealth, she can't do anything.

Zilan looked at the thoughtful young lady, did not speak, she has followed the young lady's side since she was a child, naturally knows the means and "ambitions" of the young lady, and now she sees the prosperity of the capital, from now on, the young lady will only want to stay in the capital more, the means will only be more powerful, as the young lady's henchman, she doesn't know how many days she has to live!

Li Shiqing looked at it for a while, and said with a smile: "It's not too late to go to my cousin's house as a guest, bring all the gifts for my cousin and cousin!" ”

Zilan: "The slaves and maids are all brought, please rest assured." ”

Li Shiqing still smiled and said: "It's good to bring it all, I know that Zilan is thoughtful, let's go!" ”

Li Shiqing walked in front, Zilan followed behind, her facial expression was a little stiff.

After arriving at the place, Zilan looked at the gate in front of her, and she couldn't understand that this place was not as big as the place where they lived in the county! Even if you want to be a master, you won't be so wronged by yourself!

Li Shiqing looked at the door in front of her, and she was a little incredulous, she really didn't expect that the cousin who was a big official in Beijing in her own Ama mouth would live so badly at home.

Li Shiqing asked the person who led her the way with some suspicion: "Are you sure you didn't take the wrong place?" ”

The man was not happy, and said in a bad tone: "This girl, I don't think you are from the capital, you don't know much about the things in the capital, most people in the capital can live in this house is already good, if you don't look down on it, you can change to a relative with good conditions to live." ”

Li Shiqing also knew that she had said the wrong thing, and said gently: "I didn't mean that, it's just a little different from what I imagined, this little brother has worked hard to lead the way for us, Zilan, give this little brother those drinks money." ”

Zilan took out two taels of silver in response, and the person who led the way for Li Shiqing, looking at the face of the silver, the man smiled and said: "This young lady may not know, this capital is not compared to other places, there are many people here, there are many officials, the inner city is basically full of people, even the officials of the Han military banner can only get a house if they have the emperor's gift, otherwise the Han people who are not as big as the officials can only live in the outer city, the outer city is so big, there are many nobles and businessmen in the capital, and the place where they live will naturally not be much, like the house in front of them, It's already pretty good. ”

Li Shiqing was still a little grateful that this person could tell her this, and she said a little sincerely this time: "Thank you little brother, I will borrow it in the capital for two years in the future, and it will be inconvenient to go out in the future, if there is anything to do, I will let my maid Zilan go to you, of course, I will not treat you badly." After speaking, he motioned for Zilan to take some more silver coins out.

The little brother who led the way is called Wang San, and he usually makes money by showing people a way, anyway, there are many people who come to the capital, he is not afraid of no money to make, of course, if he meets a woman like Li Shiqing who needs to run errands, as long as he doesn't work hard, he is naturally willing to make some extra money.

Wang San weighed the weight of the purse given for the second time, it was about five taels of silver, and he was very satisfied, after all, this is the money that can only be earned in two months.

Wang San smiled a little and said: "Miss will only give orders if she has something in the future, as long as the small one can do it, she will not be ambiguous." ”
