Pastoral Master

Chapter 122
"My lord!" The guards stepped forward to salute.

Sensing the carriage stopped, Yan Ruxue and Xi Ling opened the curtain of the carriage, and saw Li Yi on the horse at a glance. She had to pay attention to some etiquettes when she arrived in the capital!
Xi Ling jumped out of the carriage first, and helped Yan Ruxue get out of the carriage. Yan Ruxue walked up to Li Yi's horse and gave a slight salute. "See you, my lord!"

After receiving a salute, Li Yi immediately got off his horse. "Get up, the yard is ready for you, I will send you there, you rest today, and you can go to the palace to see your mother tomorrow morning!"

"Eh~" There was a glint of complacency in Yan Ruxue's eyes. "My lord, I have a small courtyard in the capital. I'd better go back to my own home. Tomorrow... tomorrow morning you will send someone to pick me up."

Have a yard?Li Yi frowned, the price of the courtyard in the capital was not something that Yan Ruxue could afford in such a small shop in Liangzhou, how could she still have a courtyard in Shendu?Li Yi couldn't help looking at Xi Ling who was at the side, this girl is so capable, she actually made Xi Ling take out all the old books of the Hongyimen! "Okay! Then I'll take you to your house!"

Yan Ruxue gave another gift, but she did not refuse. On the way, Mrs. Qin told her a lot about Shendu. She knew that in Shendu, with Li Yi's face, they would save a lot of trouble.

After entering the city, Xi Ling walked out of the carriage, and saw that she took out a small purse from her sleeve pocket and hung it around her waist. After a while, a woman stepped forward to guide Xi Ling.

The small courtyard chosen by Xi Ling is in the south of the city, belonging to the civilian area. The courtyard has three entrances, hundreds of rooms, a small garden, a pond, and a corridor. The entire courtyard was built in the style of Jiangnan courtyards. The owner of the courtyard was originally The wealthy businessman later sold the yard when his family was ruined. When he arrived at Xi Ling's place, he had changed hands several times.

Xi Ling's news is relatively well-informed. Xi Ling only spent 5000 taels for this three-entry courtyard, and Xi Ling bought thousands of acres of land in several villages fifty miles away from Shendu to build it. A farm, bought Yan Ruxue a few small shops in the streets of Shendu, and she didn't waste the 7 taels that Yan Ruxue gave her.

After Li Yi sent Yan Ruxue to him, he didn't stay long, and left after saying a few words.

Looking at Li Yi's back, Yan Ruxue couldn't help but stomped her feet. He hadn't seen her for such a long time, yet he didn't even say a word to her!ungrateful!
Xi Ling didn't give Yan Ruxue much time to be angry with Li Yi. After lunch, Xi Ling and Mrs. Qin gave Yan Ruxue a lesson.

"These are all sisters from our family. They were all made by big families in Shendu. The rules are all first-class. You can take them with you when you go to the palace tomorrow. It won't embarrass you. If you have If you don't understand anything, you can ask them!" Xi Ling pointed to the row of four juicy girls below.

From the time Xi Ling and Mrs. Qin dragged her over, Yan Ruxue knew what they wanted to do. Hearing what Xi Ling said, Yan Ruxue couldn't help joking. "Why do you ask them? You are my maid, don't you want to go with me?"

Xi Ling's face darkened, she cast a blank look at Yan Ruxue, and complained to Mrs. Qin. "Grandma, look at your goddaughter, we have taught her with good intentions, she is so good, she knows that I am not good at manners, and she still wants to make fun of me!"

Seeing Xi Ling admitting it herself, Yan Ruxue laughed happily, but she didn't know what was good or bad, so she smiled and said seriously. "Okay, stop playing, let's start!"

Leaving aside those maids, Mrs. Qin's family was originally a big family in Shendu, so the rules are naturally not bad. She joined hands with four maids to train Yan Ruxue and Xi Ling for an afternoon, and in the evening, the whole family Sit down and have a meal together.

The cook in the small courtyard is a cook from the Red Clothes Gate, she is good at cooking, and the whole family has been exhausted for such a long time, so the food is naturally delicious. After the meal, they each returned to their own rooms.

Now that I have such a large courtyard, Yan Ruxue will naturally not wrong Xi Ling, so Xi Ling has a separate room in her courtyard, and Yan Ruxue is not the kind of charming lady, so she has eaten After dinner, Yan Ruxue asked Xi Ling to go back and rest.

Of course, she didn't care if Xi Ling returned or not. After all, Bai Han's injury was almost healed, and Xi Ling ran more and more frequently.

In the small empty courtyard, Yan Ruxue came back alone. The weather is getting colder and colder. Fortunately, the weather in Shendu is much warmer than that in Liangzhou. She can still wear the clothes that Mrs. Qin made for her on the way. It's just that it's still a little cold at night, and although she is very tired, she doesn't feel sleepy at all. After walking around the house, she is ready to go to the small garden.

As soon as she opened the door, she saw a figure she had been thinking about day and night, but it also shocked her. "You, why are you here?"

Li Yi smiled. "What? Not welcome?"

Yan Ruxue turned her head to one side, put away the nervousness just now, and said flatly. "No! I just didn't expect you to come!"

Li Yi raised the box in his hand. "There are some jewelry in here, you can't be looked down upon when you go to the mansion tomorrow!" After speaking, he took out another pamphlet. "Here's some information about our family and the people in the mansion. Take a look when you're free, and save yourself the trouble of going to your eyes tomorrow!"

Yan Ruxue took the things and scanned Li Yi with her eyes up and down. "How is your injury?"

The smile on Li Yi's face became even wider. Although the box of jewelry he gave Yan Ruxue was not very valuable to him, it was not light to ordinary people, but Yan Ruxue didn't even look at it. Instead of just looking at him, he directly asked about his injuries. In Yan Ruxue's heart, how important was his weight? How could he be unhappy!
"It's all right! It's all trauma, and it will be fine after arriving in Shendu!" Li Yi looked around after entering the room, and said rather dissatisfied. "The furniture in this yard needs to be replaced. It's been too long! There is also a plaque at the door. I wrote it for you today, and I paid for it. It has been sent to the gold shop. You will send someone to pick it up in two days. And is there enough people from Xi Ling? If not, I will send a few people tomorrow, a yard is full of old and weak women, and there are not many men who are not safe in the yard!"

Yan Ruxue shook her head. "No need, Xi Ling's kung fu is good, and Bai Han's injury is about to heal. With them around, nothing will happen. Don't worry, as for the furniture... I don't have any spare money right now, wait a while Change it when you have silver!"
