Chapter 36 Mrs. Huo San
……

Yuanzhou Dongcheng, Huo Mansion.

The carriage stopped on the other side of the river, and the driver said: "Little lady, the carriage will not be able to enter here. After crossing this stone arch bridge, and then crossing the river by boat, you will be able to reach the gate of Huo's house."

Bai Zeqing had been here before, so he naturally knew what the coachman said was true, so he picked up his things, took the two of them out of the car, and gave the coachman a few copper coins as a thank you.

Looking at a tall blue courtyard wall, Bai Zeqing pointed over there, and said to the two of them, "Did you see it? That's the Huo family."

Zhou Qian looked at a lake in front of him. There were blue walls and white tiles on the other side of the lake, and the black tile roof behind it. At a glance, it was estimated that it was at least five deep.From the side of the river, you can see a tall archway, and you can see the four golden characters of "Tianxia Huangshang" in the scriptures from a distance.

"That's the main entrance. After my eldest sister got married, I followed my brothers here twice."

At this moment, a carriage stopped behind him, someone said "Hey", got off the carriage, and said to Bai Zeqing, "It's really you? Do you remember me?"

Bai Zeqing was stunned: Uh!Could this old man be a little too much!
She turned her head, and when she saw the person's description, Bai Zeqing couldn't help but lose his mind.

With the help of the maidservant, the 22-year-old woman stood quietly with her hands up, with a delicate figure and high temples, and only a white jade hairpin with hollowed-out and cloud patterns from Hetian was inserted.The face is as white as jade, it seems to have applied powder, but it seems not.The bridge of the nose is straight, the lips are a little red, and there are crystal clear jade beads like teardrops on the earlobes.Wearing a loose green brocade smock, with a gold embroidered lotus undergarment inside and a cinnabar skirt underneath, a shiny Hetian white jade Si Nanpei hangs around the waist.

She just stood there quietly, with a slight smile on her lips, looking at Bai Zeqing like a person in a painting.

There was a moment of silence under the bridge, and it was obvious that several people were lost in thought.

"Miss Huo San?" Bai Zeqing called out from memory.Among the women she knew, the most stunningly beautiful woman should be this lady, but she only met her first time when she came to Huo's house with her eldest sister, so she is not very sure.

"Yo, you still remember me." Mrs. Huo San's voice was soft and pleasant, and she walked over while talking.

It was really her.

She was very shocked. It should have been three years ago when Mrs. Huo San saw her, and she was only ten years old at that time.With such a one-sided relationship, Mrs. Huo San recognized her at a glance.Moreover, she is still a prisoner at this time!

Bai Zeqing unconsciously took two steps back.She couldn't help pinching the brocade bag hanging around her waist in her hands, which contained the charms that her master had given her, and she had to use them whenever she saw that the situation was not right.

Mrs. Huo San seemed to see through her thoughts at a glance, and said softly: "Don't worry, you have come to your door, how can I sell you?"

What is the logic?

"The Huo family?" Zhou Qian asked in a low voice, leading the little girl closer to Bai Zeqing.

Bai Zeqing nodded and said, "The famous Mrs. Huo San is the owner of Panyue Tower."

"No wonder it looks so good-looking." Zhou Qian smiled, his voice was a little weak, but he didn't deliberately lower his voice.Because he saw that Mrs. Huo San was getting close, it was useless to whisper, but he seemed petty.

"Hey, the little beggar's mouth is so sweet." Mrs. Huo San glanced at him and raised her eyebrows slightly.

Zhou Qian's face turned pale, and he couldn't help but look down at the tattered clothes, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he didn't speak any more.

"Let's go, follow me in. If it weren't for good luck to meet me, I'm sure no boat would dare to carry you, and I don't know how long you'll have to wait to see my second brother." Mrs. Huo San smiled softly, It is very beautiful.

"How does she know that you are here to find her second brother?" Zhou Qian approached Bai Zeqing.

Bai Zeqing didn't speak, put on the bamboo hat, and let out a long sigh: This Huo family has [-] hearts on average, and they are not easy to get along with.

……

The Huo family is like an island in the middle of a lake.

To enter Huo's house, you have to cross the stone arch bridge first. After notifying the servants, the boat will pick you up. After you land on the island, you will pass through a bamboo forest, which is the gate of the outer courtyard.

There are eight arch bridges, the front door is used by small boats, and the back door is used by large water transport ships.

Mrs. Huo San led them across the bridge, pointing to the pier and saying, "You are only this high when you come up."

Uh... Bai Zeqing is a little embarrassed. In the past years, she followed her sister and brother unwillingly. What can she remember?
The steward had strode forward to cross the bridge, and Mrs. Huo San walked ahead with the help of her maid.

Bai Zeqing was holding the little girl by the hand, and the little girl was indeed holding the weak Zhou Qian, and they slowly crossed the bridge.

Because it is the territory of the Huo family, there are no idlers wandering the streets and looking at the scenery here. The people sitting scattered on the riverside are all members of the Huo family. There are men and women, old and young, and the young are playing around. Women are washing clothes by the river, chatting and laughing. Laughing is very lively.

Seeing them coming, especially when they recognized the first woman as Mrs. Huo San, followed by a Taoist priest wearing a bamboo hat and two little beggars, everyone looked over curiously.

"These are all offshoots of the Huo family, and most of them rely on the clan's business for a living." Bai Zeqing whispered to Zhou Qian.

Several people kept walking, and when they crossed the bridge, the steward immediately came up to greet him, and said in a low voice, "The boat is ready."

Mrs. Huo San nodded, and led a few people onto the boat first.

This boat...it is indeed a boat on the outside, but the inside is more luxurious and comfortable than the best painting boat in Panyue Tower.There are more than a dozen maids standing in the cabin.

Bai Zeqing had seen it before, Zhou Qian was fairly calm, but the little girl was terrified, holding Zhou Qian's hand tightly, shrinking behind Zhou Qian as if trying to hide herself.

Sitting down in the gorgeous cabin, the maid on board came to hold tea and refreshments.

Bai Zeqing then pushed the refreshments to Zhou Qian and said, "Eat, don't starve to death."

Then he brought out the little girl behind Zhou Qian, took a piece of mung bean cake and handed it to her, saying: "Don't be afraid, the wife of the Huo family is a very good person, look, it's delicious."

The little girl took a peek at Mrs. Huo San, who was drinking tea, looking very gentle and gentle.The little girl looked at Zhou Qian again. Zhou Qian was so hungry that he had no energy to speak. She nodded to her, and took a piece of peach cake and ate it in small bites.

After all, the little girl couldn't stand the temptation of delicious food, so she took the mung bean cake and stuffed it into her mouth, choking and rolling her eyes.

Bai Zeqing was taken aback, and hurriedly took her own teacup to pour tea for her, and while following her back, scolded Zhou Qian: "Your sister, don't you know how to teach?"

Zhou Qian was also a little frightened, so he quickly took a sip of tea and patted the little girl's back: "Don't be in a hurry, eat slowly. When you arrive at Huo's house, you won't be short of food."

Mrs. Huo San raised her eyebrows and gave her a wink, and the maid beside her offered some more snacks.

……

One sentence was hit by Zhou Qian, and Bai Zeqing never expected that they got off the boat and walked through the pavilions. In the Changlan Pavilion under the shade of the rockery in the garden, Huo Er, who was wrapped in sable fur and roasted with silver charcoal, Grandpa, I am eating roast lamb.
