Qin Xiangxiang glanced at Zhai Tu quickly.

Zhai Tu looked stunned, and he had already reacted. Fan Yanguan, isn't that the person he wants to see, but he hasn't seen?

Qin Xiangxiang hurriedly coughed vigorously: "Cough! That's great. In that case, let's go. Uncle Ma, take good care of Uncle Zhai, I'll go back as soon as I go. ”

As she spoke, she turned her head and walked away.

Zhai Tu watched the Fan family's carriage turn around in a daze, and asked Uncle Ma for a long time: "Your Qin lady, has you always been so decisive?" "He's not stupid, he knows that Qin Xiangfang doesn't want him to be impulsive. But is the matter of salt being delayed like this?

Uncle Ma thought about it seriously: "Yes, the eldest lady of our family has always been decisive. ”

Fan Xiaoniang beckoned Qin Xiangxiang in the carriage: "Qin Niangzi, hurry up and get in the car, my family's new house is still a little far away." ”

It is better to be respectful than to obey fate, Qin Xiangxiang got into the car with his skirt, and squeezed in the carriage with Fan Xiaoniang and her maidservant.

Fan Xiaoniang's maidservant girl looks very young, but she is only about ten years old, and her movements are obviously a little clumsy.

Fan Xiaoniang thought that Qin wanted to be her good sister: "My maid, I have only bought it back for half a month, and I don't know what the rules are, Qin Niangzi don't mind." ”

Of course Qin Xiangxiang didn't mind.

Fan Xiaoniang was born with a round face and an excellent temper, seeing Qin Xiangxiang sitting stiffly, she showed a shallow smile at her, and couldn't help but say more: "My house is also new, and the furniture in the stove room has not been completely purchased, what is missing from Qin Niangzi later, just tell me." ”

Qin Xiangxiang smiled and said, "Then it's better to be respectful than to obey your fate." However, Mrs. Fan invited me back like this, if the elders in the family don't like it......"

Little Lady Fan showed a melancholy look: "Don't hide it from Mrs. Qin, my father is very busy, has a lot of entertainment, and is rarely at home." I have only my aunt at home, and my mother, I have been busy with moving to a new house recently, my appetite is not good these days, and I have very little food. ”

"I see." Qin Xiangxiang nodded and praised Little Lady Fan, "Little Lady Fan is really filial. ”

Fan Xiaoniang was a little shy: "It's just a little filial piety for children, and it also costs my father's money." "Her father didn't have much money before, and he didn't give her much moonsilver, but since last year, her father suddenly became generous and gave her silver money to spend from time to time, and she actually accumulated a lot of private money.

Little lady Fan is really interesting.

Passing by the fish shop while talking, Qin Xiangxiang got out of the car and personally picked a big herring.

The Fan family's new house is in the area outside the Jinshui Bridge, very close to the city gate.

Fan Xiaoniang said: "The housing prices here are cheap, but they are a little far away from the public office. ”

It is indeed a little far away from the sale of the Salt Division, and Fan Yanguan has to get up very early to rush to the public office to order the mao.

But Qin thought about it, since Fan Xiaoniang could take such a good carriage to the street, Fan Yanguan would not walk to the upper duty.

Fan Xiaoniang said: "Walk through the city gate street, and then go inside, it will be my house......"

Qin Xiangxiang was listening, the carriage suddenly stopped, and the groom said, "Hey, there is actually a border army returning to Beijing?" ”

Qin wanted to open a crack, and happened to see a horse galloping by, and Lang Jun on it seemed a little familiar. After a certain look, I saw a banner embroidered with the word "Mu".

Qin Xiangxiang's heart moved, is it Mu Ting's father Wu Dehou who has returned to Beijing? Mu Ting sneaked back to Jingshi, but was finally discovered by his father, so he had to rush back to Jingshi to get Mu Ting?

Fan Xiaoniang opened the curtain generously and looked: "Who are these people?" "Wu Dehou rarely returns to Beijing, and it is reasonable that Fan Xiaoniang is unconscious.

Ma Fu said excitedly: "It's Wudehou Mu Jiajun, the lady is young and unconscious, but the old slave saw Wudehou return to Beijing more than ten years ago, at that time, Wudehou defeated the Di tribe and returned to Beijing triumphantly. ”

It turned out that Wu Dehou had not returned to Beijing for more than ten years.

Fan Xiaoniang was not so excited: "It turned out to be the Mu family army guarding the border pass." "It's not that Fan Xiaoniang is indifferent, but the life of these armies seems to be far away from the Beijing Division, and it has nothing to do with them. She was born in Beijing and grew up in Beijing, Dasheng has not had turmoil for more than ten years, and those things that are fighting and killing are far away from her.

The Mu family's army passed quickly, and the dust that was raised was left in a moment.

The groom just sighed and continued to drive the horse on.

Qin thought about the car, and saw the freshly painted Fan Mansion, with two freshly scratched red lanterns hanging on the low-key log-colored courtyard door.

Little Lady Fan is a head shorter than Qin Xiangxiang, but her body is bulging. The moment she lifted the hem of her skirt and crossed the threshold, Qin Xiang Xiang saw a small pearl embedded in the upper of Fan Xiaoniang's shoes.

She quietly withdrew her gaze.

In general, Fan Xiaoniang is all over her body, except for the shoes, she is dressed very plainly, so that people can't see the bottom of her family.

The Fan family's new house, as soon as you enter the door, you can't see the Fan family's background.

Very ordinary green brick paving, empty yards, newly planted flowers and trees wilted.

Little Lady Fan led Qin Xiangxiang to the stove room, and was a little embarrassed: "I just moved here, and I haven't cleaned up yet." ”

The stove room is big, but in fact, the house is quite complete, not as exaggerated as Fan Xiaoniang said. There was also a cook in her fifties in the stove, wiping down the dishes.

Qin Xiangxiang's eyes were sharp, and he saw that the plate was a silver plate.

The first-class nobles use jade plates, the second-class nobles use gold plates, the third-class nobles use silver plates, the flat-headed common people use wooden plates, and the lower ones use porcelain plates.

Seeing that Fan Xiaoniang was leading Qin Xiangxiang into the door, the cook quickly stuffed the silver plate in her hand and covered it with a cloth: "Xiang Niangzi, who is this?" ”

Fan Xiaoniang's name has the word "incense".

Fan Xiaoniang introduced Qin Xiangxiang to the cook: "This is Qin Niangzi, her cooking skills are extraordinary, and she is on par with the little owner of Fanlou." Today, I finally invited Qin Niangzi to make a whole fish feast for A-Niang. Aunt Lan, you have to help Qin Niangzi. ”

Aunt Lan's expression was obviously a little unaccepting, but she still said, "The old slave can save it." Xiang Niangzi, Mrs. is still talking about you today, saying why did you go out again. ”

Fan Xiaoniang stuck out her tongue, turned her head to Qin Niangzi and said, "Qin Niangzi, you only need to use the family here, I have to accompany my aunt first." ”

Qin Xiangxiang smiled and said, "Okay." ”

Little Lady Fan was defenseless against Qin Xiangxiang, but Aunt Lan was not. She was wiping the plates, but she didn't wipe them, but turned out a stack of wooden plates from the cabinet and said with a smile: "Qin Niangzi just call me." ”

Qin Xiangxiang smiled: "Don't dare, don't dare, but I have to bother Aunt Lan to raise the fire." ”

This Xiang Qin wanted to be busy killing fish, and the little lady Fan carried the hem of her skirt, passed through the hanging flower gate, and entered the courtyard where her aunt lived.

Mrs. Fan's room is also very simple, and when Mrs. Fan entered the door, she was sitting with her next lady, Aunt Hua, sewing clothes. Mrs. Fan, who is at home, is also dressed plainly, with only two hollow silver hairpins on her head.

Seeing her daughter come in, she put down her needle and thread and looked at her daughter with concern: "Why did you go out again early in the morning?" ”

Fan Xiaoniang was very lively: "Ah Niang, don't you have no appetite these days?" I've got a very good cook back for you and I'll make you a whole fish feast. ”

Mrs. Fan's face changed suddenly: "You, what did you say?" Did you bring an outsider back? Xiang'er, why don't you say a word to A-Niang? ”
