Chapter 6 Entering the House
When the three servants leaned over to discuss, Zhang Qi looked at the thief and the two horses who were tumbling on the ground, and secretly felt distressed: What about the two horses, if they are sold, they can get a lot of money. Unfortunately, I can't open this mouth.
The three servants also saw the two horses, but they did not dare to pick up such thieves' things, for they would not catch up with them. After a few words, the carriage hurriedly drove.
Wen Yuan sat next to Zhang Qi and asked, "Sister-in-law, what did Engong tell you?" At that time, the two of them were whispering face to face, and others didn't hear it clearly.
Zhang Qi wrenched his hands in each other and whispered, "He blames me for talking nonsense." β
Speaking of this, Wen Yuan couldn't help but get angry, she said sharply: "Sister-in-law, you are from the countryside, you don't know how to know the world, I don't know how to count etiquette, I don't blame you this time." But you have to remember that to survive in the mansion, you only open your ears and don't open your mouth. The benevolent father just now, since he covered his face thickly, he must not like others to know who he is. If you open your mouth rashly, and if you meet someone who is ruthless, you may be killed. β
Speaking of this, thinking of the two bandits who were rolling on the ground in pain, Wen Yuan shuddered and fell silent.
Zhang Qi bowed his head and responded respectfully, thinking in his heart: The reason why that person covered his face with a thick curtain was that he was too handsome, and he was impatient for others to look at him, so he habitually blocked his face. As for him hurting people, it was because of the two bandits, one said he was a little white face, and the other said he was a girl. He hates others to talk about his appearance the most in his life, and he doesn't tolerate others.
Sitting in the carriage, Wen Yuan told Zhang Qi about some survival skills of the mansion.
In the afternoon, the middle-aged man's relieved voice came from outside, "It's finally here!" Zhang Qi hurriedly stretched out his head, only to see a tall city in front of him, the moat outside the city was murmuring, and the pedestrians on both sides of the suspension bridge were like a stream, which was extremely lively.
It's time to be healthy!
Finally, I came to Jiankang again.
The carriage drove into the city gate, and returned to the bustling and prosperous place, and the three servants all breathed a sigh of relief and talked loudly. Even the lean man who had been silent was a lot more cheerful at this time.
Sitting next to Zhang Qi, Wen Yuan whispered, "Sister-in-law, now you have entered the city." We'll put you in the inn first, and we'll pick you up when the house is ready. β
"Yes."
"Don't run around in the inn."
"Yes."
When the three servants sent Zhang Qi to the inn, it was getting late and the sun had sunk to the horizon. Seeing their departing backs, Zhang Qi breathed a sigh of relief.
Her background is destined to have a difficult future, and it is better to stay in Jiankang Zhang's house than her grandfather's house. So along the way, she never thought about struggling.
Back in the room, Zhang Qi recalled the memory carefully. After the thieves, she no longer had any doubts about her memory.
The night passed in a blink of an eye.
As soon as the morning dawned, a carriage stopped outside the inn, Wen Yuan walked in with two maidservants, and after welcoming the freshly washed Zhang Qi, Wen Yuan smiled and said: "Congratulations to my sister-in-law, let's go home with the old slave." β
Family? Where is Zhang's house her home?
Zhang Qi smiled shyly, answered cautiously, and followed them into the carriage.
The carriage drove forward, and after walking for most of an hour, it turned into a laneway, and then the carriage stopped.
Wen Yuan stood outside the car and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, let's go into the house." β
Zhang Qi walked down.
In front of her was a small door that allowed only one person to enter and exit. Yes, the dignified Zhang Mansion, how could she let her humble illegitimate daughter enter the mansion openly? is the side door that others can't look down on, and she is not qualified. Only this small door for slaves to enter and exit can accommodate her.
Zhang Qi looked around curiously, making a countryman who didn't know the world, and under the leadership of Wen Yuan and the others, he walked into Zhang's mansion.
As soon as you enter the small door, there is a row of low wooden houses, and in and out of the wooden houses, there are some slaves. Seeing Zhang Qi come in, they looked curiously.
Wen Yuan walked a few steps quickly, whispered a few words to a twenty-four or five-year-old woman, turned around and took Zhang Qi's hand, Wen Yan said: "Sister-in-law, this is Sister-in-law Liang, she has prepared a place to live for you, you can follow." β
Speaking of this, Wen Yuan looked at the naΓ―ve Zhang Qi, and finally her heart softened, and she couldn't help but say in a low voice: "Sister-in-law, you can stay here and wait for your father to come back." β
This Zhang Qi still understands, isn't she her father's wife, she really looks down on an illegitimate daughter like herself, and treats her as a slave? In her previous life, she also came over like this.
Speaking of which, Zhang Qi in the previous life was an extremely smart person, otherwise she would not have gone through so many hardships and became the wife of that person.
At that moment, Zhang Qi bowed his knees according to the etiquette taught by Wen Yuan all the way, and said in a low voice: "Yes." After that, she raised her little face, looked at Wen Yuan with admiration, and said with tears in her eyes: "But Yuan, Ah Qi is reluctant to you!" "In this mansion, Wen Yuan is a decent and kind-hearted person, and it is beneficial and harmless to have a good relationship with her.
Wen Yuan walked with her for a month, and she also had feelings. She looked at the beautiful sister-in-law in front of her, reached out and stroked her hair, and whispered, "Go, go, go." β
As soon as Wen Yuan left, Zhang Qi walked to Sister-in-law Liang with low eyebrows. Sister-in-law Liang looked her up and down a few times, and she had a bottom in her heart. Turning around, he led Zhang Qi into the third wooden house on the left, and Sister-in-law Liang said as she walked, "Your name is Ah Qi, right?" Ah Qi, your identity is still different from that of servants. After that, you will clean the yard in the morning, and go to the school in the afternoon to learn some words. After dinner, I'll help the kitchen. β
Zhang Qi lowered his eyebrows and replied obediently: "Yes." β
Seeing her demure appearance, Sister-in-law Liang nodded with satisfaction and said, "Very good." While instructing the two little maidservants to help Zhang Qi bring the coverings, Sister-in-law Liang said: "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law has a sentence you have to take to heart." β
Zhang Qi hurriedly bowed down to be taught.
Sister-in-law Liang smiled: "You have a good embryo, which is different from those rude countrymen, maybe in the future, you will have to rely on it to live a good life." She smiled meaningfully.
Zhang Qi understood what she meant. What she arranged just now was all light work, if she said that she cared about her so-called master's identity, it was better to say that she wanted to let herself be raised, and when she grew up, she would be like a flower. In the future, if there is a need above, she can also get an affirmation.
