Chapter Seventy-Eight: Strange
She had actually only met this person once, but Chu Lian felt that she would never forget it.
When he first returned to Ningning, Chu Lian only gave him tea with He Changdi in the flower hall, and he had a cold attitude at that time, and took the tea and gave him a red envelope, completely looking like a businessman. Later, she was taken away by her sisters at home, and she didn't have time to listen to a word or two of his teachings, and she didn't know if the biological father of her current body had a good time with her husband He Changdi and cultivated some affection for her son-in-law.
Chu Qi was wearing a delicate gray brocade robe, and he was guarding in front of a mansion with his side.
He walked back and forth, as if he were in a very restless mood.
In fact, the second old man of the British Mansion is not very old, he is only thirty-five years old now, he has no beard, he has a jade crown on his head, and he is slender and long, and he looks six or seven years younger than his actual age.
Chu Lian's apricot eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked up at the plaque on the house - "Pan Mansion".
Chu Lian saw a small servant guarding the door by the Pan Mansion Gate and quickly ran in, and soon, two strong saber servants followed the little guy out, and the little servant pointed towards Chu Qizheng's master and servant.
The two family members stepped in front of Chu Qizheng in three or two steps, and one of them pushed Chu Qizheng hard, if it wasn't for the constant random spirit around him, Chu Qizheng would probably be pushed to the ground with no face.
Immediately afterwards, Chu Qi quarreled with his family in a hideous manner, and the Chang Sui he was carrying by his side could be seen to be a little bit of kung fu, protecting Chu Qi Zheng behind him.
The two family members seemed to be impatient with being scolded by Chu Qizheng, and the anger on their faces could no longer be hidden, and their hands were pinched on the hilt of the knife on their waists, as if they were going to do it in the next moment.
Chu Lian knocked on the wall of the carriage and instructed the coachman outside to slow down the carriage, and she lifted the curtain slightly to look at the door of Pan's mansion, but there were no other instructions.
After all, she is not the original Chu Lian, Gui Ning was given a cold reception that day, and she already knew that she was not liked by her father, which was nothing to Chu Lian, she was a person who respected me and I respected others, since the father of this body did not take her to heart, of course she was too lazy to intervene in this idle hand today.
Wouldn't it be nice to sit in a carriage and watch the excitement?
Wen Qing looked at the third grandmother's order, and the curious also leaned over to look out the window, and as soon as he saw the plaque in front of the door of Nafu, he lowered his voice and exhaled softly, "Pan Mansion!"
Wen Lan looked at Chu Lian's concentrated appearance, and secretly pulled Wen Qing on the other side, Wen Qing quickly covered his mouth, and blinked apologetically with big eyes.
Chu Lian didn't have the heart to pay attention to why Qing exclaimed now, her eyes were staring at the situation in front of the Pan Mansion.
Just when the two family members were about to move, a carriage came from the side street in front of the Pan Mansion, and the carriage quickly stopped in front of the Pan Mansion, and the little man who was guarding the gate of the Pan Mansion trotted to the carriage himself, and diligently lifted the curtain of the carriage, and helped a man with a gray beard about fifty or sixty years old.
It was a little far away, and Chu Lian couldn't hear what was said over there at all.
I saw that the man with the white beard was about to enter the mansion directly, but he seemed to hear what Chu Qizheng was saying loudly behind him who was stopped by the two family members, and suddenly turned his head and looked at Chu Qizheng with a shocked and dangerous gaze.
Time seemed to slow down with the man's gaze, and finally, the man waved his hand at the two family members, and Chu Qizheng's originally nervous facial expression suddenly relaxed, and even brought a little smug and bad.
Chu Qi was pushing two strong handfuls of the two strong men who had just stopped him, as if he was still angry after doing so, and kicked him twice with his foot.
After venting, Chu Qizheng patted the placket of his clothes that had been messed up when he was struggling just now, put his hands behind his back, and took square steps with Chang into the Pan Mansion.
It wasn't until Chu Qizheng's figure disappeared into the wall of Pan's Mansion that Chu Lian lowered the curtain, her expression changed and changed, and her interest in wanting to visit Shengjing City just now was completely wiped out because of the incident she happened to encounter.
Chu Lian lowered his head and thought for a moment, and asked Qing Wenlan not to bother, so he sat silently on the side.
After a long while, Chu Lian raised her head, and she looked towards Wen Qing, "Wen Qing, which official's mansion in Beijing is the Pan Mansion of Fang Cai?"
I remember that Wen Qing exclaimed in surprise just now, thinking that the status of the master in this Pan Mansion in the court must not be low.
Q Qingzhao replied: "Third grandmother, this Pan Mansion in Pingkangfang is the mansion of Pan Ge Lao. ”
There are a total of five adults in the cabinet of this dynasty, and among the five adults, they are also divided into primary and secondary, and this Pan Ge Lao is one of the people with the highest status in the cabinet today, and it is only one step away from the position of Lord Bingbi. It is an authentic member of the dynasty!
Chu Lian didn't care about the officialdom of the Great Wu Dynasty, and the part she read in the original book didn't mention this high-ranking and powerful Master Pan, so she naturally didn't know.
Chu Lian nodded, "I know." ”
Although Wen Qing was curious about who the third grandmother was just staring at the middle-aged man, she couldn't help but see that the third grandmother had no desire to talk.
The group that accompanied her out today were all from Jing'anbo Mansion, but none of them saw that Chu Qi was her father.
Chu Lian listened to Wen Qing's answer and pondered again.
Looking at Fang Cai's situation, Master Pan had no intention of seeing his father at all, and what made Master Pan suddenly change his mind in the end was what his father said.
At that time, she saw Master Pan's eyes, which were very complicated eyes, and all kinds of emotions were mixed together, which made people tremble.
In the declining British Mansion, Chu Qizheng is not the eldest son in the family, and he is not a serious person in his studies, he lives by the shadow of the family, and until now, he has not even mixed up with a low-grade idle job in the court, and it can be said that he has achieved nothing.
After such a nobleman, he is just the same friend at the meeting all day long, passing the time, and has very little contact with the court officials, especially the court officials who hold real power.
Just like before, he stood in front of the door of Pan's mansion and waited, and Lord Pan might not even give him a look, but what was surprising was that Lord Pan not only looked at him, but also let him enter the mansion, obviously looking like he wanted to negotiate with the other side.
Could it be that Master Pan was caught by her father?
Thinking of this, Chu Lian shook his head and snorted coldly.
How can it be!
Which one of the people who can sit in the seat of Master Pan is an ordinary person. Counting people's hearts, intrigues, and exquisite hearts, even if they don't occupy them all, it is estimated that it is almost the same.
Her father, a rich idler who eats, drinks and has fun all day long, will play the powerful Lord Pan down, or seize the handle of Lord Pan, I am afraid that it will not be believed by children.
Moreover, there is no contact between the British Mansion and the Pan Mansion at all, and the two are basically zero contact, so this possibility is even smaller.
Chu Lian frowned and recalled the plot in the original book, but he still couldn't get any clues, and in the end, he could only give up in despair.
The boat is naturally straight to the bridge, even if her father is calculating something, it doesn't matter what her business is, the water spilled by the married daughter, she is now a person from Jing'an Bo Mansion, and she is He Saburo's daughter-in-law.
After comforting himself like this, Chu Lian finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Ask Qing to see that Chu Lian's face softened, and then he asked out loud, "Is the third grandmother still shopping?"
At this time, they had already left Pingkangfang and arrived at Suzaku Street.
Stimulated by this incident, Chu Lian had no anticipation at the beginning, and wanted to go home directly, but thinking that it would be the birthday of her mother-in-law, Mrs. Jing Anbo, in a few days, she swallowed the words before she thought of the birthday gift that she wanted.
"Let's find a few shops and take a look, my mother's birthday is coming. ”
Although the birthday gift for her mother-in-law is not valuable, and she doesn't care if she wants to come to Mrs. Jing'anbo, everyone in the Manchu Mansion knows that she exchanged Princess Le Yao's golden unicorn for the benefits of Wei Guifei, and when she was crowned a township monarch, she was rewarded with one hundred taels of gold in the regulations. If she doesn't let out some blood on Mrs. Jing Anbo's birthday this time, I'm afraid she will be gossiped.
Chu Lian sighed in her heart, her sister-in-law Zou was looking at her unpleasantly! How could she gossip and let her say.
No matter what she sends this time, she can't be too shabby, she used to be able to confidently say that she had no money, but recently she can't.
Chu Lian pouted, a little angry in his heart, but there were just two more entries, and the people around him were red-eyed, it was really annoying, he would make money in the future, but he had to hide and cover it a little, his husband was no longer around, and the silver couldn't be snatched away!
Wen Qing lifted the curtain slightly, pointed to the shops on both sides of Zhuque Street, and introduced Chu Lian one by one, "Third grandma, the Hengsheng Medicine Cabinet, Luohe Calligraphy and Painting Workshop, Lanjiao Ready-to-wear Shop on Zhuque Street, by the way, and Jin Shixuan over there are all famous shops in Shengjing City, and many high-ranking ladies and ladies will come." ”
Chu Lian nodded, and he didn't decide what to buy, so he planned to take a look around these shops at will.
Wen Qing asked the coachman to stop the carriage, and she and Wen Lan helped Chu Lian down.
People come and go on Suzaku Street, and from time to time there are men and women in brocade clothes and jade robes shuttling by.
Chu Lian looked at it twice, but he had a good impression of the openness of the Dawu Dynasty, this dynasty was not as strict as the ancient Song and Ming dynasties, and such an open era was more similar to the early Tang Dynasty.
Many of the daughters who go out don't even need to wear hoods, and there are even special women's training classes in the Guozijian in Shengjing City.
It is normal for the women of the noble family to go out shopping.
Chu Lian first entered the Hengsheng medicine cabinet, she deliberately dressed up in order to go out for an unannounced visit today, and the clothes and dresses on her body were just ordinary materials, plus the two young girls around her, Wen Qing and Lan, were like the newly married ladies in the Xiaoguan's family.
When he entered the medicine cabinet, there was no special guy who came up to greet him, Chu Lian didn't care, and only took Wenqing and Wenlan to watch slowly in the pharmacy.
