"Miss, it's here."

The carriage stopped at the corner of Hibiscus Street. The plain white and smooth fingers lifted the curtain on the side, revealing a pair of beautiful eyes. Four words were reflected in the dark eyes - Xiangyun Inn.

The customs of this dynasty are not restrictive, and the restraints on women who have not left the cabinet are not as strict as those of the previous dynasty. Yes, Lin Yi'an only said that he was out to hang out today, so he secretly rented a carriage and went to Furong Street.

Furong Street is one of the most prosperous streets in Yejing City, where not only the people and magnates of Yejing City, but also merchants and foreigners from various states run goods. Probably because most of the people who come here are rich and powerful, and half of the beggars in the city have been squatting on this street for a long time.

No, there were six or seven teenage beggars squatting across the street from the Xiangyun Inn.

"This Mr. Nangong is not a simple person, we will definitely not succeed in such a rash past, we have to think of a good way." Lichun is steady, but he really can't think of any good way for a while.

"How much silver do you have in your purse?" Lin Yi'an asked suddenly.

"There are about seven or eight taels left." Lichun clutched the money bag around his waist and looked at Lin Yi'an vigilantly.

Originally, there were not many monthly cases, and I had to reward people during the New Year's holidays, and the girl's family occasionally had to add some objects, and I didn't save much silver in the past few years. This time, I didn't use the incense car in the house to go out, but I specially rented an ordinary carriage, which cost two taels of silver, so can I still spend money indiscriminately? Naturally not!

"Give it to me." Lin Yi'an stretched out his hand.

Lichun shook his head.

"Do you still want your young lady to show her face in front of Mr. Nangong?"

Lichun nodded.

"Huh?" Lin Yi'an stretched his hand forward.

Lichun slowly took out his purse and handed it over reluctantly.

Lin Yi'an stretched out his hand to take it, but the purse was pinched by Lichun, "Miss, let's save a little, it's almost the New Year, and the slave still wants to eat braised pork......"

Listening to a whoosh, Lichun's hands were empty, Lin Yi'an opened his purse and counted them, there were eight taels of silver and twenty cents.

She put on a hat and put the rhombic double-twisted white jade that she had taken out from the bottom of the box on her waist, and then took Lichun's hand and walked out of the carriage.

"Go and find the head of the child, I have something to say to him." Lin Yi'an took a tael of silver and put it in Lichun's hand.

These taels of silver are really the fur of the wealthy family, and they can't even get into it. But for ordinary people, one tael of silver can buy twenty catties of noodles and two catties of pork, which is really full.

As the saying goes, Zhumen's wine and meat stink, and there are frozen bones on the road. Probably also refers to the current Jin Dynasty.

Soon, Lichun led a little beggar of twelve or thirteen years old. The little beggar was dressed in tatters, and his eyes were full of defensiveness when he looked at Lin Yi'an.

"Do something for me, do it well, and you will take the money and divide it." After that, Lin Yi'an shook the purse in his hand.

The little beggar swallowed, the money in the purse should be enough for them to eat for several days. Although he couldn't see the face under the hood, listening to this young lady's euphemistic and beautiful voice, he probably wasn't a bad person. The little beggar thought for a moment, "What's the matter?" ”

After whispering to the little beggar, Lin Yi'an took Lichun to a tea shop diagonally opposite the Xiangyun Inn and sat on the second floor to eat tea.

"Miss, will this work?" Lichun thought about the ten taels of silver he brought with him when he went out, and felt that his flesh hurt.

Lin Yi'an turned his head to look at Lichun and said seriously: "Why didn't I find out that our Lichun is still a little money fan before." ”

"I'm not sorry for Miss yet......" Lichun muttered as he looked at it. Suddenly, she caught a glimpse of a woman walking out of the Xiangyun Inn. Wearing a snow-colored long jacket, a stone blue horse face on the table, a royal blue long armor, and black hair combed into a dignified fallen horse bun with osmanthus oil. She folded her hands on her lower abdomen, and her skirt did not move at all when she walked, even when she walked down the steps from the Xiangyun Inn, she was still dignified and elegant.

Seeing that the little beggars waiting outside the inn were all around, Lin Yi'an put down the teacup, "Let's go, it's time for us to show our faces." ”

At this moment, Nangong Jing couldn't bear to face the first little beggar who stepped forward to beg, she put a penny of silver in the porcelain bowl where he broke and only half of it was left, "Good boy, go buy some food." ”

"Thank you, great grace!" Seeing that there were nobles who made a generous move, five or six little beggars around him surrounded him, and they all knelt on the ground and begged Nangong Jing.

Nangong Jing was a little at a loss for a while, and immediately untied her purse and scattered the money one by one.

"It's really rare for Madame to be so kind, but I'm afraid it doesn't really help them."

Nangong Jing looked back and saw a girl in Tsing Yi standing behind her, she couldn't see her face clearly with a hat, but she noticed that the rhombic double-twisted white jade she wore around her waist was small and exquisite.

"What can the girl do?" Nangong Jing asked with a smile.

To say that this Nangong Jing is worthy of being from the palace master of ceremonies, it is that she smiles, and the curvature of the corners of her mouth is also bent just right, not too presumptuous and rude, nor too restrained and dull, but just right, kind and polite.

"These children are begging for a living. Now is the end of the year, every household is buying New Year's goods, why don't you take the money to buy some red paper and red candles in the small shop on West Street, and then bring it to Furong Street to resell, so it will become a small business? Although it doesn't earn much, at least you don't have to beg. Lin Yi'an blessed himself and said: "The small skill of carving insects makes Mrs. smile." ”

"This is a good idea, the girl has a heart."

"There are still some things that are inconvenient to delay, and I hope to see you again with my wife." Lin Yi'an Fu saluted, straightened his back, and left with Lichun dignified and generous.

Back at the corner where the carriage stopped, Lin Yi gave the silver to the little beggar and said, "Thank you, child." ”

The little beggar took the silver and snorted lightly, "There is nothing on Furong Street that I can't do, if there is a next time, you come to me again, I like your cheerfulness!" ”

Looking at this child's snorting appearance, Lin Yi'an under the hat couldn't help but snicker: "Okay, how can I find you?" ”

The child raised his head: "My name is Dongli, if you want to find me to do something, come to the dilapidated house at the end of the alley to find me." ”

At this moment, there are two people sitting by the window on the second floor of the tea shop.

"I said I was going to see a play in Liyuan today, but I didn't expect to be able to enjoy it here." The young man in brocade glanced downstairs from time to time.

"The prince of the world can be as happy as he wants, but don't compare my sister with the servants in the opera garden." Lin Zhi on the other side said dissatisfied.

"She's your sister?"

"Sister-in-law."

This person who was called the son of the world by Lin Zhi was Chen Zhiyuan, the son of the British Mansion, the mother family of the current queen. The domineering gentleman in Yejing City, the younger brother of the current queen and the emperor's brother-in-law.

The reason why he is familiar with Lin Zhi is completely because this person does things in a disorderly manner and does not like the rules, and there are many noble sons in the Tongzhi Hall, but he only talks to Lin Zhi from the concubine. Probably because of Chen Zhiyuan's status as a friend, Lin Zhi did not deliberately make things difficult when he was studying in Tongzhitang or when he entered the officialdom.

"Interesting." Shizi smiled, "Ah Zhi, what do you say she is going to do?" ”

"It probably has something to do with the things in the back house." Lin Zhi glanced at this friend indifferently. Thinking of Lin Yi'an's sudden words last time, Lin Zhi faintly felt that this sister didn't seem to be simple. But after a closer look, I feel that I am just a poor sister trapped in the back house, how can I really change the current situation in the Lin Mansion?

"Keep an eye on the back house of the Lin Mansion for me, I want to know what she is going to do."

"Boring."

How can a man pay attention to the trivial matters of the back house? That is, Chen Zhiyuan, an idle and idle son, is so boring.

Lin Zhi was deeply disdainful of this behavior.
