Travel through the farmhouse leisurely

Chapter 408
Judging by their descriptions, they don't look like young ladies from a noble family, but they look like they come from a wealthy family. I really can't figure out why the young master pays so much attention to it. I couldn't help being curious, and Mrs. Xu asked, "Wait!" After figuring things out, she can serve better, right?

Steward Hai snorted, others might not be clear about it, but he knew a little bit about it, when the old lady of the Zheng Mansion found out about her daughter's whereabouts, she sent someone to investigate carefully.

Therefore, as long as the slaves in Zheng's mansion have a little bit of contacts and channels, they will be able to inquire about this matter clearly. Steward Hai has not deliberately inquired about anything, but his eldest daughter is the eldest maid who works in front of the old lady. , Come back and chat with him a few words.

I heard that this Lin family is the family where Madam has lived for many years, and that Ms. Lin has already engaged to her young master, and she has a close relationship with Madam. Looking at their intimate behavior, they look like mother and daughter.

Otherwise, why did the madam enter the capital, but instead of rushing to see the old madam, she asked him to find the shopkeeper of a jewelry shop in a tailor shop? People, can be regarded as in vain.

Faced with Mrs. Xu's questioning, Steward Hai thought for a while, and did not hesitate to raise his own point. He leaned into Mrs. Xu's ear and whispered, "Among the distinguished guests in the house, one of them will be Our master!"

When Mrs. Xu heard this, her eyes widened in surprise, and she murmured, "Oh my god, it's like this. No wonder the young master and madam are so close to her!"

Housekeeper Hai knew that she was a sensible person, so he didn't say anything more, and hurried out of the house to do some business.

Since Mrs. Xu got this information, she has paid more and more attention to the brothers and sisters of the Lin family. Knowing that the two brothers of the Lin family came to Beijing to rush for the exam, they have to read every day and night, so they consciously cook something that suits their appetite without telling them. Send it over for supper.

Besides, what Widow Zheng told Steward Hai, he also finished it with great efficiency and came back to hand over the errand.

In the afternoon, the shopkeepers of the biggest and best tailor shop and jewelry shop in the capital came to the door as promised. Widow Zheng warmly entertained them and asked Lin Xiaoqiao to come over with great interest.

Next, the two of them went through a series of tossing and tossing, from discussing the latest styles of clothes in the capital to choosing the styles of several sets of jewelry, they have been busy for most of the afternoon.

In the end, two sets of the most fashionable clothes for young girls in the capital were selected, and two sets of gemstone heads were finalized. Widow Zheng wanted them urgently, so she ordered them to hurry up and deliver the goods in the afternoon of the next day.

After hearing this request, the two shopkeepers were both a little embarrassed, but after hearing that Widow Zheng raised the price twice, they readily agreed.

In fact, at the beginning of this year, the business of their shop was not very hot. All households had bought enough new clothes and jewelry years ago, and they were not too busy. They said they were rushing to make two sets of clothes or jewelry. It's a very embarrassing situation, but it's just a usual method in the business field. It can't be easily dealt with, and it is still necessary to put on a show.

Fortunately, the lady in this house is quite straightforward, and they raised the price so much at once, they can be regarded as earning enough, but they don't know who this face-to-face lady is.

The two shopkeepers run the two most prosperous shops in the capital, and they often go to and from the homes of various officials and nobles. Therefore, they know all about these nobles in the capital, and even some who are not very private Gossip, also know more than others.They even send people to collect some gossip, just to better deal with the masters in the deep house and gossip.

Speaking of which, they are also clear about the Chen family. The master of the family is only a young master who has not yet been crowned. He is Tan Hualang, a figure in the last imperial examination. Minister of the Ministry.

I heard that when I was young, I didn't live in the capital, but went back to my hometown with my mother. I didn't enter the capital until the year of the last examination, but it became a blockbuster and won the name of Tanhua. Now I'm working in the Imperial Academy. The man of the hour naturally aroused the curiosity and exploration of many people, especially the fact that he moved out of the Chen Mansion alone before he got married, and came out to live alone, which aroused many speculations.

Helpless, this little Master Chen has always lived in seclusion and kept a low profile, so no one has found out any secrets, even the Mrs. Chen who lived with him in his hometown since childhood has not been found for a long time.

Thinking of this, the two shopkeepers raised their heads to look at the lady in front of them, and then thought in unison, is this the mysterious Mrs. Chen?

Because of doubts in their hearts, before the two shopkeepers left the mansion, they saved their minds, asked someone for a few words, and got some information. They confirmed that the beautiful and gentle lady was the mother of Xiao Chen.

The next day, one of the shopkeepers casually shared the news when he was going in and out of the nearby official's mansion, and for some reason, the news reached the ears of the old lady of Zheng's mansion as quickly as possible.

As soon as the old lady got the news, her lips trembled with excitement, and she kept yelling that she would go out of the house to reunite with her daughter, but she was persuaded by her daughter-in-law, Mrs. Qin, before giving up. You haven't recuperated yet. Wouldn't you startle her by rushing to the door so rashly? It's better to wait for her to recover. I think my aunt will come to the door and reunite with you. It's not too late For a while, besides, if the old lady really came to the door in person, someone who knows the inside story, understands that the old lady misses her daughter very much, and gets emotional for a while. But if she doesn't know the inside story, it will not hurt our aunt's reputation! The daughter didn't come to see her, so the mother took the initiative to visit? Originally, my aunt disappeared suddenly in the capital for the past ten years, and she was very eye-catching when she came back, so she can't add another reputation of 'unfilial'! Madam, you Think about it carefully, what my wife said, is it true or not?"

Mrs. Zheng had already understood what her daughter-in-law said. Just now she was just emotionally agitated and confused for a while. When she figured it out, she took Qin's hand and said kindly, " What you said is, just now I was dizzy for a while, but fortunately, you understand and remind me, otherwise, I am an old fool, I am really going to do something foolish!"

At that time, although Mrs. Zheng was persuaded by her daughter-in-law, afterward, the old lady still couldn't let go of this matter, she was restless, thinking about it for a while, she didn't know what her daughter would look like now, Worried about my daughter, after a long journey, whether her body is tired or not.
