Two hundred and five, Lanxi returned to Beijing
Two hundred and five, Lanxi returned to Beijing
I don't know if it's Ge Pei's good arrangement or Lan Xi's luck. She went all the way back to the capital.
As Ge Pei said, the city gate was calm and unwavering, probably Emperor Wangdi thought that she had already fled, and focused his investigation on the outside of the capital.
The people who went out of the city also had a slight check, and no one paid attention to them when they entered the city, and the car they took in was also the most ordinary, and they entered the city smoothly, Lanxi looked at the capital that was still extremely strange although he had lived for some time, and he was very emotional.
When she ran away, she still wanted to go as far as possible, hoping that she would not come back in this life and this life, who would have thought that in just over four months, she would quietly return to Beijing again.
In just a few days, Ge Pei had arranged for someone to buy a house in the capital and prepare it properly. Originally, Lanxi wanted to rent a house, but Ge Pei was worried that the landlord would let him move the place or cause trouble due to a verbal dispute for other reasons, so it was easier and safer to buy the house, and he didn't care about the money.
But Lan Xi insisted on paying, and Ge Pei paid the money and became Ge Pei's, living in other people's places made Lan Xi insecure, and it felt much better to have her own house, whether it was a mansion or a snail's house. It's always her own home, anyway, it's only more than two thousand taels, and she can afford it.
The house is located on a slightly remote street, and turning out of this street is a bustling street, which is exactly what Lanxi wants, convenient and quiet, the so-called quiet in the middle of the noisy is nothing more than that.
Bought a house, she still has nearly 5,000 taels of silver tickets, now plus some expensive jewelry, there are nearly 20,000 taels of silver tickets, according to the price level here, although not rich, but enough to live a well-off life for a lifetime, Lanxi, who was used to being poor all his life, is very content.
What's more, she still wants to do a little business with her own ability, of course, she just asks someone to run it, and she just needs to be the boss behind the scenes, and she doesn't dare to show up casually if she borrows ten guts.
Although he couldn't get enough of the prosperity of the capital, Lan Xi still didn't dare to show his face too much, and hurriedly took a car with Ge Nan to the house. She discussed it with Ge Nan, and for the sake of safety, she and Ge Nan still pretended to be husband and wife in the capital, and Xiao Tao was the wedding girl.
Although there are many doors of the house, it looks like an ordinary house on the outside, but it is much more exquisite on the inside, which is very in line with Lanxi's intentions, comfortable and unassuming.
Ge Pei's two henchmen who stayed in the capital had already arranged everything, and even the house slaves had been bought. When they had entered the door, he commanded the slaves to set up their dwellings. He handed over the deed and other formalities to Lanxi, left his contact information and left.
The group took the train for a few days, and then transferred to the car, they were already very tired, and after Ge Pei said goodbye and left, they couldn't wait to rest, but there was no one at home to take care of the arrangements, and she and Ge Nan were fake husband and wife, and they would be seen as flaws if they were not careful. The three of them had to take a look at it.
This is a five-room three-entry house, close to the gate there are four ear rooms and garages, although the place is not big, but exquisite and tidy, practical and comfortable, very suitable for Lanxi's heart.
The first into the house is neat and generous, simple and unpretentious, the courtyard is neat and flat, except for a few big trees, a little flowers and plants, even the furniture is simple and generous and practical, there is no luxury, if someone comes in. I thought it was an ordinary house in Beijing, but it was more spacious. There are three main rooms, the living room is just after entering the door, the dining room for hospitality is on the left, and the study room is on the right, and if there are elders, the study can also be used as a residence for the elders. The four transepts are the two bedrooms of the slave family of three on one side, and the kitchen and storage room on the other.
The second entry is much more delicate and exquisite, so they made their residence, which is also the main room with three rooms, just entering the door is the living room, and there are bedrooms on both sides, and the door is very safe and private.
Lan Xi was very satisfied with this, and secretly admired Ge Pei for doing things. The two bedrooms are set together, and each has its own bathroom, usually she and Xiao Tao live in one, and her impostor husband Ge Nan lives in one, which can not only hide the truth from the outside world, but also not affect their respective lives, outsiders must think that they live in one couple, and the personal girl Xiao Tao lives in one.
However, there is no ear room in this entry, there are two side rooms on both sides, probably prepared for the import of Tianding, Lanxi decided to set one into his own study and activity room, and the other was converted into a usual restaurant, and when eating, you can also enjoy the flowers and trees in front of the window, and you don't have to go to the big and old-fashioned restaurant in front of you for every meal.
The last courtyard is a garden and a small pond, and a vegetable patch is also opened in one corner, and there is no main house in this courtyard. There are four wings on each side, two rooms on the west side are guest rooms, and the house on the east side is vacant, so if you buy a house slave in the future, you will not have to worry about having nowhere to live.
It's spring, the house is paved with bluestone, surrounded by big trees, has grown tender green new leaves, the green willows in the garden are light, the grass is tender green and delicate, a few apricot blossoms are blooming, sitting in the small pavilion to enjoy the spring is no better, the house utensils are also very complete and comfortable, this silver is worth it.
Lan Xi bought it with his own silver, and it will be his own industry in the future, and he looked at it with a critical eye everywhere, and after looking around, he was satisfied and secretly admired Ge Pei's thoughts.
The house slaves bought were a family of three, a middle-aged couple under forty years old and a sixteen or seventeen-year-old son, this family was surnamed Lu, the male caretaker was rough and tidyed up the flowers and trees, the female cooked, washed and cleaned, and the son ran errands to buy by the way as Ge Nan's attendant, since he had pretended to be a son, he had to take it seriously. lest people be suspicious.
Seeing that the new master was coming, this family was extremely attentive and careful, and hurriedly stepped forward to introduce themselves, the person chosen by Ge Pei's henchmen must have gone through a detailed investigation, Lan Xi was extremely relieved about this, and heard that Sister-in-law Lu made a good meal, Lan Xi was extremely happy. I gave a big red envelope.
For the sake of safety, he also instructed the family of three to be careful in the future, resolutely not to interact with outsiders casually, and especially strictly ordered not to enter the second main house where the master lived without permission. What is the reason for Xiao Tao's communication, it is not that Lanxi is tyrannical, but they are afraid that they will find out that they and Ge Nan are fake couples and cause unnecessary trouble.
This family is honest and loyal, and they didn't respond at the moment, because it was already after lunch, and they were told that they didn't need to prepare lunch, and that they could eat dinner directly when they fell asleep, and then the three of them closed the door and went to rest.
It is also strange to say, they are now under the nose of Emperor Wang, and the truth has been discovered, Lan Xi should be very nervous, but she prefers to act as if nothing happened, as if she was really a good citizen who came to Beijing with Ge Nan to settle down, and slept soundly until the sun set.
Xiao Tao had already woken up and ordered the kitchen to prepare porridge and side dishes according to Lanxi's taste, and served Lanxi to take a bath and change clothes.
Ge Nan was very conscious, and after waking up, he quietly took a bath and changed his clothes, and then went to the study in front of him, not to hang around in front of Lan Xi, anyway, there was a simple soft couch for temporary rest.
By the time the master and servant had cleaned up, it was already more than seven o'clock in the evening, and it was already dark, and it was just time to start eating, because the restaurant at the back had not yet been cleaned up, so they ate in the front restaurant first.
After the meal, Lan Xi told Xiao Tao to check what was still missing and asked Sister-in-law Lu to buy it tomorrow, and he took advantage of the moonlight to take a turn in the courtyard, feeling extremely excited, although Ge Pei treated her very politely and respectfully everywhere after leaving the palace, but Lan Xi always had a feeling of being under the fence, and now she finally has a place to stay, and she no longer has to rely on people.
After a while, an indescribable feeling came to her heart, and she suddenly thought, what is Emperor Wang, who is close at hand, doing at this time? Is it as melancholy as yourself? How would he feel when he found out that he had escaped from the world with the fire incident in the cold palace?
