Chapter 101

When Tu Nan was about to leave, Zhao Surui looked at her thin back, smacked his lips and said:

"I want to eat elbows."

The ordinary-looking maid stopped putting on her cloak and turned to look at him.

"Okay, I'll make an elbow for the girl tomorrow."

Zhao Surui looked away and didn't speak.

Only at this time did he let go of the estrangement that had arisen from the incident with Shao Zhiqing.

It's been a long time since he ate the elbow made by Tunan!

Coming out of the yamen wearing an inconspicuous cotton cloak, Tunan glanced west and saw a few men standing by the wall.

She lowered her eyes, quickened her pace and walked past them, but was stopped by someone.

As if she didn't know how to respond, the young servant girl panicked for a moment before saying, "Shang, Shanghao."

Tunan was still worried about his daughter.

Mi Xinlan raised her head and looked around, sighed lightly, and said with a half-smile, "I really never imagined that I would be able to welcome sister Yao here one day."

His Majesty ordered the restoration of a group of former ministers, the first to bear the brunt was Chu Jiyuan, the former servant of the household department. Chu Jiyuan's house was confiscated back then, and his house was also confiscated. The man dug out all his wealth, but only 30 taels of silver.

This is also simple, Fang Qien waved his hand at people, and immediately someone came over to lift up the stone steps, and there was no need to re-draw the pattern on it, and a new stone step was replaced in less than two moments.

"Yes."

However, Fang Qien still felt that there was a lot missing in this courtyard. Although he was a eunuch with a humble background, he had seen the most prosperous and beautiful scene in the world. This empty small courtyard really made him displeased.

Say nothing more.

Several people do it immediately.

The two women who came hand in hand also returned the gift to him:

"Is the color of the window screen too fancy..."

Shrill cries echoed through the narrow alleyway.

Seeing her smiling honestly and honestly, Mi Xinlan could only hold back the anger in her heart, the woman in front of her was also a miserable person, if she made a fuss by herself, she must be hurt.

Nodding slightly, Tunan turned and left.

The shrill cry startled the little girl next to her, and she burst into tears as well:

Mi Xinlan took a step back, her heart was shocked, she never expected that Yao shi had worked hard all her life with Chu Jiyuan, and she went there before she could see some light.

In the not-so-open courtyard, there are a few cypress trees that cover half of the sky, and there is still snow on the eaves and walls. Even if it has been cleaned inside and out, it still reveals a bit of desolation that has not been lived for a long time.

"Su'er's grandmother is gone, Su'er has no grandmother! Su'er doesn't want her grandmother to be an official anymore, Su'er wants her grandmother back!"

Fang Qi'en looked around and saw the water tank by the wall at a glance.

only……

Shocked, Mi Shi looked into the carriage in disbelief, and asked anxiously:
"Yuan Jin, where's your mother?"

Walking into the courtyard, the courtyard can almost be described as "one glance at the end".

Fang Qien didn't go out of the palace this time just to see Mrs. Shen, or in other words, taking a look at Mrs. Shen was not something His Majesty asked him to do after leaving the palace. He was just a slave, so he naturally wanted to put the master's concern in his heart. In my heart, now His Majesty has transferred a lot of the memorial files in the palace from the eunuchs to the female officials, and the eunuchs are naturally ten times more attentive than before.

Today's "girls" are arrogant and reckless but fierce and stubborn. Most of them are young children raised by rich families, but they hold great power and don't take human life seriously.

"Return to the palm print, the courtyard has been cleaned according to your order, the roof has been repaired before the snow falls, and new clothes, quilts and curtains have also been prepared."

"Yes."

First, a woman in her twenties led a seven or eight-year-old girl down from the carriage. When she saw two luxuriously dressed ladies waiting in front of the door, she hurriedly pulled the child to salute.

Chu Jiyuan's wife, Yao Shi, was kind-hearted and open-minded, and made friends with her. Because of this, when His Majesty asked her to welcome Yao Shi back to the old house, she didn't spit on the head of the eunuch who sent the letter.

If there is a chance, Mi Xinlan even wants to ask His Majesty in person, what kind of person does His Majesty want to stand in this big court, even if a loyal person like Chu Jiyuan suffers from relegation and humiliation?Is it a villain who is corrupt and perverts the law for personal gain?Or a servile and humble mediocrity?
Liang Yuying, the wife of Shouchenghou, took the basket from the handmaid and said with a smile:
"Mrs. Mi, I brought Magu wine and four-color snacks to clean up Mrs. Yao's dust. I don't know if I can please her? I am very clumsy, and I don't know how to do it well when I am assigned this job. , After thinking for a long time, I realized that I have the ability to make dim sum, and I made these dishes of dim sum by myself."

Fourth Sister Yu blinked her small eyes, and looked at the direction Tunan left: "It is said that the surname is Ling. When she was six years old, she joined Shen Shao's family with her father. Her father used to be a escort. When Prince Duansheng fell into the water, her father He also jumped down and never came back."

Fang Qien took two steps back, slowly closed his eyes, and ordered softly:

"If there is no bowl lotus, move two bamboos to the corner of the wall."

Chu Yuanjin buried her head between her arms, and after a while, she said softly:

Hugged by a warm embrace, Chu Yuanjin finally couldn't help crying:

Fang Qien lowered his head and did not speak.

"I have seen Fang's palm print."

He got into the carriage at the gate of the procuratorate's Yamen, and after a while, he arrived in front of a mansion.

The man breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good. Excuse me, Miss, is Mrs. Shen still okay now."

For such a person, his life must be much better than being trapped in a deep house.

"Ms. Shen's two maidservants are more familiar with the one named Peifeng. Peifeng has a straightforward and free-spirited personality. If he is not a woman, he has the character of a soldier in the army. This one named Tunan looks like a fool." Knowing how to practice martial arts, but hiding deep in the house."

Seeing that they were working neatly, Mi Xinlan didn't say anything.

"Boss Fang, do you mean that this Tunan can talk in Shen's mansion?"

Such a person was demoted to the southwest just because he did not approve of His Majesty's Western Expedition? !
Mi Xinlan felt that this was just a joke.

He wears official boots, and the outer robe on his body looks plain green, but it is actually dark brocade, and there are traces of stitches on the neckline, most likely because the fur collar was removed in order not to be eye-catching.

Mi Shi looked at her for a moment, she was happy at first, and the next moment, she could clearly see the white flowers on the woman's head and the plain white cotton jacket on the little girl's body.

Her eyes lightly moved, and she did not dare to lift her waist and abdomen. It looked like she had been in the house for a long time and had little contact with outsiders, so people couldn't bear to disturb her.

His fingers are long and slender, and there are calluses between them. It can be seen that he is good at writing and ink. When standing, his body leans to the right, which should be a problem after standing for a long time.

"The girl is Mrs. Shen's maid?"

It seems that he is also in his 20s when he started a family and started a business, but he has not yet grown a beard.

Hearing the woman's voice, Fang Qi'en quickly turned around and saluted:
"I met Mrs. Mi and Mrs. Shou Chenghou."

The man smiled: "A certain surname is Fang. The brothers behind me have been guarding here these days. If there is any trouble, the girl can just tell them."

Turning around, under the cover of layers of roof tiles, she couldn't even see the yamen she just walked out of, let alone the place where her girl's soul was hidden somewhere in Yanjing City.

"Returning to the palm print, there were originally two water tanks in this yard, and there should be bowl lotuses planted in them, but the yard has been open for a long time, the water in the tanks has dried up, and the bowl lotuses have also withered. The roots of the lotus have been dug out, and I don’t know if they will be able to support them next year.”

Tunan didn't say anything, just nodded slightly.

Seeing Mrs. Shou Chenghou coax Mi Shi into silence, Fang Qi'en felt relieved:
"Mrs. Mi, Your Majesty means that Mrs. Yao should also be served by her side. How to make a decision is entirely up to your arrangement."

On the other side, Tu Nan walked onto the avenue in one breath without looking back, secretly recalling what he had just seen in his heart.

What kind of rich family, even the servants have to wear dark brocade?Soap boots on your feet?

Fang Qien nodded.

"How's the cleaning going?"

After another hour, a carriage wrapped tightly in cotton cloth stopped in front of the door.

Prince and Duke?General's son?
Going around a tree covered with snow, several children shouted and passed in front of them, and Tunan exhaled softly.

"Hidden deeply?" The person who just talked to Tu Nan turned around, with a clear and elegant handsome appearance, "It is indeed hidden deeply, Si... Fourth Sister Yu, let your people guard Shen here carefully Ma'am, if you have something to do, go to Shen's house to find this girl from Tunan."

The person who spoke seemed to be more timid than her, and stopped three steps away from her, and bowed slightly:
"Someone was serving the master, and had a relationship with the girl once, I wonder if the girl still remembers it?"

Not even official.

The man stood there watching for a while, and someone behind him followed with his head probing:

Liang Yuying quickly supported her, and went to help Chu Yuanjin:
"Good boy, I have suffered you."

"Auntie, my mother has been working hard since she brought me back to my hometown, weaving and spinning every day and sending money to my father. She became sick from overwork, and she will leave in October this year."

 Window screens are also pink
  The old man has become the sound of crying blood.

"I brought people here, all of them are old people, and I hired another cook from outside. Sister Yao is generous, and she is not a widow. Why can't I use the pink window screen? I think this window screen is good, no need If it is changed, the steps in front of the door need to be re-stretched, otherwise it will be too slippery with frost and snow."

The one who left the palace, that is, Fang Qi'en, did not answer, and asked again: "Can you find out what the family name of Miss Tunan is?"

Can you still order the people of Xichang like your own servants?

"My mother has worked hard with my father all her life! My father has suffered so much that she will only suffer more! My father was exiled, I was divorced, and my mother took me back to my hometown. Now my father has been recovered. My mother But it's gone! Auntie, my mother is gone!"

Tunan stopped in his tracks, half turned around to face the person who was speaking, his eyes were still downcast, his fingers were hooked on the cloak, and he looked cowardly and harmless.

"Are these two water tanks new?"

The gate of the mansion was empty without even a plaque, but there were a few men and women standing in front of the gate.

"I think it's just right."

"Go back to the palace and send a message to the emperor. Lord Chu's first wife, Yao Shi, has passed away. We all in the capital know about it. I'm afraid that Lord Chu doesn't know the news yet."

  This section is written to deepen the line of the ladies.

  But it was still sad when I wrote it.

  Bring Zhao Gouzi over and beat him up.

  See you all tonight.
