A month later, Li Siniang left with more than a dozen people.

Among them are Ma Hui and Uncle Qi.

Bao'er was left behind, and followed Aunt Sang and Su in the inner house. It's just that now the Su family has to take care of the housekeeper, and he is very busy every day, and he has no time to take care of the children, so Bao'er either goes to the school or goes to the incense room to find Lian'er and Orchid to play during the day, he is the treasure of this family, and someone will give him something to eat wherever he goes.

Because of what happened before, he was very timid and didn't dare to stay alone, so Aunt Sang followed with her heels, so that her body got better again.

Capital.

Li Siniang finally returned to this place where she grew up, in fact, she was very unfamiliar with it, and she was in the back house of the Li family for more than ten years, don't talk about it and walk around, even the front yard rarely goes.

But now she can be regarded as a blessing in disguise and has seen the world.

Someone had already been sent over to rent a small courtyard, and everyone squeezed to settle down first.

The next day, Li Siniang took Ma Hui and a few maids to Yaxing.

The place where the Li family lives is in Wutong Lane in the south of the city, which belongs to the junction of the elite circle and the rich circle.

You say that he is still the residence of the powerful family, and the powerful disdain. You say that he is a rich and noble family, but the people of Wutong Lane themselves are not willing to do so.

Therefore, Wutong Lane and the adjacent Feifeng Street, Nanzhu Lane, etc., are all entry choices for wealthy families who want to enter the circle of power; Of course, it is also the last stubbornness of the declining family who is unwilling to leave the circle of the powerful.

Therefore, if the Li family wants to live in the real circle of elites, it is not easy for Li Siniang to rent or buy a house.

But Wutong Lane is different, as long as the money is in place, you can have a lot of choices.

On the contrary, Li Siniang came back with the money, and the main one was to "dazzle".

Ma Hui saw the prices of several courtyards on the side, and the rental and sale were ridiculously expensive, and she almost fainted with her chest covered.

But Li Siniang is very calm, after all, she has been in charge of the old lady's private treasury, and she has seen wealth and nobility.

This is also the reason why Qin Xun will keep her by her side again and again.

Only such a person can become a capable person who can take care of everything for herself before she enters the capital.

Li Siniang's ability is actually limited, and Qin Xun let her do things this time, also wanting to verify her vision again.

At the intersection of Nanzhu Lane, Feifeng Street and Wutong Lane, there is a house that occupies a large area, which is twice the size of the courtyard inside, such a good environment and convenient travel conditions, but this house has been abandoned for many years and no one cares.

The former head of the house was a marquis, but after committing a crime and seizing the house, the whole family was exiled, and it is said that the family later died on the road.

The former head of the household was a big official who was transferred back from other places, and because he had a lot of money, he really couldn't find a good place to live, so he chose this house to settle down. He also quickly picked up the elderly and children at home, and the family was happy and unhappy.

But the good times didn't last long, and the big official who covered the sky outside with one hand, not long after returning to the capital, was imprisoned because his whole family was implicated.

Knowing that the situation was over, the officials informed the women and children of the incident.

Therefore, when the government came in, the old lady and the wife of the family drank poison and died together, the scene was particularly terrifying, and even the men who had seen too much life and death had nightmares.

Two families had accidents one after another, and none of them were spared.

After the news got out, this yard became a murderous house, and even if the price was equal to other houses smaller than half of those in Wutong Lane, it had already eaten ashes for more than four years.

Li Siniang pointed at the house with her finger and said to the tooth man: "Let's look at this!" ”

The tooth man didn't dare to lie to her, so he briefly talked about the situation in this house, although it was very vague, but Ma Hui and the others couldn't help frowning, they only felt that this house was unlivable, how unlucky.

However, Li Siniang nodded and said lightly: "That's it, now take us to see the house." ”

Ma Hui hurriedly grabbed Li Siniang's hand: "Sister Siniang, how can you look at this house?" It's too unlucky, and the second master and his wife definitely don't like it. ”

"Ma Hui, I discussed this matter with my wife before I came, and I asked for my wife's consent."

For Ma Hui, she still has some liking. Therefore, Li Siniang explained to Ma Hui very seriously,

However, Ma Hui frowned and shook her head, seemingly kind, but in fact she said accusatorily: "Sister Siniang, my wife definitely doesn't know the details of this house, and when she and the second master know, they will definitely be angry, you don't want to think about it, who would like a murderous house?" ”

Li Siniang turned her head and looked at Ma Hui fixedly, and Ma Hui, who was oppressed by her emotionless eyes, finally shut up.

"Ma Hui, you're too much! Remember, just do your own thing, don't be self-assertive, and don't be self-righteous. Li Siniang's face was gone, and although her words were calm, her words were serious warnings.

Ma Hui was stunned, along the way, although Li Siniang rarely smiled and rarely talked to everyone, she was still very gentle, never angry, and everyone's food, clothing, housing and transportation were arranged very well.

Ma Hui privately gave her the nickname "Good Old Man".

However, when she put on a face at Ma Hui for the first time, Ma Hui realized: It turned out that Li Siniang, a good old man, had a cold face, and it turned out to be a little scary.

But the next moment, Ma Hui thought of the reason why she was afraid of Li Siniang.

It's not because Li Siniang's identity is the chief housekeeper of the Xiao family, and she has been ordered by her wife to handle everything in the capital, especially that all the silver is in her hands.

Thinking of this, Ma Hui pursed her lips and turned her face away with some dissatisfaction, but she didn't continue to stop Li Siniang.

Ma Hui is a bold girl, and later came to Su's incense shop, because she is smart and willing to learn, she quickly got started, plus she is lively, sharp-tongued, and very good at observing words and feelings, she summed up a set from the guests who entered the door, wore ornaments, and accompanied the maid and other people, quickly judged the person's net worth and ability to buy things, not to mention, she also has more advantages in receiving female customers, so the price sold is more than all the little two.

The shopkeeper always praised her with a smile, and even when she returned to Xiao's house to send things, Su also praised her for her ability.

As a result, Ma Hui was praised a little proudly, so she dared to point fingers at Li Siniang.

Yaxing is very close to Feifeng Street, and the time to walk half a pillar of incense is up.

The dusty side door slowly pushed open, and Li Siniang took the lead in stepping into the big mansion.

The main courtyard has three entrances, the first is the front yard, and the second courtyard is the courtyard of the hostess, who is responsible for handling daily affairs and receiving visitors in addition to living.

The third courtyard is the inner courtyard, which is next to a huge garden.

In addition to the three houses have left and right side courtyards, there are two adjacent houses in the garden, the houses are not big, but they are hidden among the green trees, and they are both two-story small buildings, which seem to be embroidery buildings for young ladies to live.

Because it was the house where Hou Ye once lived, it was naturally extraordinary, but later it was inhabited by officials, and the height of the threshold was lowered, and some of the other illegal places were also modified.

It's just that the Xiao family wants to live, and they have to change some places, after all, Xiao Chenyu doesn't have an official body, and if he is used by some people, it will really be a catastrophe.
