Chapter 126)

When Zheng San went to send a thank-you gift to the Duke Fu Guo Mansion, Fu Tingyun handed Zhang Zhaoling's famous letter with the gift, but the Duke Fu Guo Mansion did not take it seriously at all. He politely thanked him, so that Fu Tingyun didn't have to come up to visit him. A concubine in the palace celebrated her birthday, and the female family members of the Duke Fu Guo Mansion entered the palace to pay their birthday to the concubine.

Fu Tingyun breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that this was fine, and she looked down on her at all, and she was also uncomfortable when she went there.

Mr. Lu also found his house and invited Fu Tingyun to take a look: "Thanks to Guard Jian's help, a friend's head retired and returned to his hometown. He wanted to sell his house. He was in the Shijia Hutong in Huanghuafang, the east of the city. I went to see it. The alley was straight and straight, and it could be either a carriage or a sedan chair. The people living next to him were all from Jiangnan to Kyoto to work as officials. The servants who came in and out looked very regular and decent. There were three houses, square, and twenty-eight rooms. Last autumn, their heads celebrated their birthday, and they were all renovated from the roof to the floor tiles, and they didn't have to move again for at least ten years. The house offered 12,000 taels of silver, and the price was a bit high. I told them to keep the silver notes for Baoqinglou, and they asked them to leave their houses. If you were satisfied, I would slumber with the family again to see if you could see if you could lose more."

I can take out the money, but I don’t have much money to buy a house. I’m afraid Zhao Ling’s money to come to Kyoto for social engagements is a bit short of money.

Fu Tingyun was a little hesitant.

Mr. Lu also knew it and discussed with Fu Tingyun: "I think the house is really grand. Why don't you take the seal to save it first? I will sell the 700 acres of land when I go back. Master Jiu's box of antiques is worth ten thousand gold." He didn't say anything, if he couldn't make a move, and when Zhao Ling and Fu Tingyun got married, he would sell the house for another room. The small one was - he heard Zheng San's tone and bought this house for Zhao Ling to save face in front of Fu Tingyun's relatives.

After being a shopkeeper for a long time, he has the cunning of a businessman.

"Let's go and have a look first!" Fu Tingyun still advocated buying a smaller house, but since Mr. Lu had agreed, it would be okay to go and have a look.

Unexpectedly, after watching it, she couldn't bear to let it go.

A monkey-shaped horse stone stands in front of Ruyi Gate, one left and one right. The entrance is a blue brick screen wall, with a large character Fu in the middle, and there are seven or eight children who sit, lying or laughing on it. It is novel and interesting. A locust tree with thick hugs in front of the southern house is planted, which looks like a hundred years old. The crown is like an umbrella, covering the entire yard. You can imagine the green shade in summer. On the right side of the main house is a pomegranate tree, and on the left is a crabapple tree. There is a large celadon of lotus patterns in the wisteria rack in the yard, and there are two jujube trees with different heights behind the main house.

After entering the house, there were all kinds of chicken wenge wood houses, and there was also a mirror with openwork teeth inlaid with large glass in the inner room. These were worth two or three thousand taels of silver. Not to mention that there was a picture of snow scenes and cold forest hanging in the middle hall of the main house. It was the original work of Fan Kuan, and it was worth at least three or four hundred taels of silver.

Fu Tingyun couldn't help but say, "Did they give all these?"

"Send it!" Mr. Lu whispered, "Last time when I came to see the house, the door was hung with bright red silk-carved plywood curtains. The plywood was all made of good ebony..."

Fu Tingyun was shocked: "Whose house is this? Why should I sell it?"

Mr. Lu smiled and said, "He is a minister of the Ministry of Justice. He is only in his forties. He has been an official in Jiangnan for many years and specializes in the name of punishment. This time, he has been offended by the cabinet chief Shen Shichong and was forced to retire. He is in a hurry to ask for some money. Everyone knows that at the price, he has to give away the things in the house..."

Fu Tingyun couldn't help but remind him: "There is indeed a big leak in this room, but you have found out clearly, so as not to spend money to find trouble."

I offended the cabinet chief, after all, I am a scholar, and I have the rules of my own. What I fear most is that I offend those eunuchs and Teng Jiwei. The former is unstable, and no one may have any ideas in the next moment. I don’t know if I will be implicated just because I buy a house. The latter is cruel and ruthless. As long as it goes to their hands, plucks your hair, and it will not make you lose everything, and the dead will not let go if you win. If you buy such a house, you will be like snatching food from a tiger's mouth, which is a way to die.

"Miss, don't worry, I will find out carefully. I would rather not buy it than get any trouble." Mr. Lu promised.

Fu Tingyun said "yes".

In the end, the house in Shijia Hutong in Huanghuafang was sold for 10,000 taels of silver, but the owner also gave them a pair of Ru kiln flower vases and left them pots and pans.

Fu Tingyun asked Zheng Sanniang to clean up the house and told her: "We won't live here forever, just clean up the doorman and main house."

Zheng Sanniang was very excited when she came back: "This family is really rich. Fifteen blue summer cloths, two red summer cloths, more than a dozen kilograms of high-quality Longjing tea, and some scattered things in the ear room on the west side of the main house."

Fu Tingyun shook her head and said with a smile: "Then put away all the things and make summer clothes for Zheng San, Linchun and the others at that time."

Zheng Sanniang nodded repeatedly.

During dinner, Yuwei came back.

She also brought good news to Fu Tingyun: "The master goes out every morning at Yinchu and Shenchu ​​comes back, and he takes a day off every ten days. The fourth young master goes out every day at Maozheng and returns home at Youchu. He takes a day off every ten days. I have to calculate my life, and I will take a day off in two days."

Fu Tingyun thought for a while and said, "Tomorrow you go to Sixi Hutong with me."

Yu Wei responded to "yes" and said, "I'll go call a car tomorrow morning? Sixi Hutong has been walking on Zhengyangmen Street in the outer city for more than two hours!"

Only officials above the fourth rank went to court, but their father was a fifth rank. He lived so far, no wonder he left at the Yin hour.

Fu Tingyun didn't expect that they were so far apart and said, "I think there is no need to call a taxi anymore. I'll let Zheng San take us by car tomorrow!"

She always felt a vague worry in her heart, and felt that it was safer to have someone who was powerful like Zheng San around her.

Yu Wei replied, went to Zheng San to inform him that he would use a car tomorrow morning. After dinner, he re-counted the gifts he would give tomorrow and placed them neatly.

Zheng Sanniang kept praising her for care and asked her if she had been engaged to a marriage, and she faintly expressed her intention to tell her about the matchmaking.

Yu Wei was stunned for a while, shook her head, thinking that she was in a position of guilt, so how could she have the face to get married? She made an excuse to refuse Zheng Sanniang: "Since I am the lady's maid, I will naturally have to follow the lady."

Zheng Sanniang was slightly stunned and said, "The girl is also a smart person, how can she have such a mind? I think Jiu Ye treats Miss Fu very well, and they are not married yet, so they may not be able to collect people in the house."

She is from the village and thinks that Zhao Ling has no children and taking a concubine is a waste of food, which is too unpaid.

Yu Wei was afraid that Fu Tingyun would suffer a loss by being kidnapped by refugees, and became the concubine of someone or the outer room. Although she did not dare to ask about Fu Tingyun's experience, she carefully observed the actions of Fu Tingyun and the people around her. Knowing that Fu Tingyun was saved by a man called Jiu Ye. The two of them had privately settled their lives. Although the Jiu Ye was only a small family, he was very kind to Fu Tingyun. Not only was his family in charge, but he was in charge of his family. Just like this time when he came to Kyoto to visit relatives, he tried every means to borrow famous posts from Duke Fu and Hou Yingchuan... After hearing what Zheng Sanniang said, the curiosity hidden in her heart could no longer be suppressed. She looked dissatisfied with temptation to find out about what happened back then: "Whether the lady has the final say or not?"

"That's even more impossible." Zheng Sanniang smiled, feeling a little despised Yu Wei. She let the good family not marry and wanted to be a concubine. She told her about Fu Tingyun's affairs at the Nian Boss, "I think, girls should give up as soon as possible!"

The rain couldn't help but open his mouth.

Run to the place where the man is in charge and make a big fuss? Is this the Miss Nine she is familiar with?

She tossed and turned, and did not sleep all night. The next day, she forced herself to serve Fu Tingyun and used breakfast, and took a carriage to Sixi Hutong.

Zheng San Road is not familiar with him, so he would stop and ask Yuwei at every intersection, and he would stop and stop. It was almost noon before he finally arrived at Sixi Hutong.

The entrance of the alley was a little narrow and the carriage could not be entered. Zheng San was waiting on the carriage. Yuwei carried the things he wanted to deliver and walked in with Fu Tingyun.

There is another world inside the alley.

There is a big locust tree in the middle of the alley, surrounded by the big locust tree, and four families live like a small courtyard.

Yuwei pointed to one of the Siheyuan facing west: "Miss, that's it!"

Fu Tingyun was excited.

I'm about to see my mother, what will my mother ask her?

There is also my sister-in-law. She met her when she was young. She only remembers that she has a round face and smiles before she speaks, and always looks very happy. Can she recognize herself?

She has never met her brother's two children. One should be eight years old and the other five years old this year. I don't know if it's naughty or not, who do you look like?

She was full of thoughts and stood in front of the closed door, her hands weighing like a thousand pounds.

The door suddenly opened with a "creak".

Fu Tingyun was shocked.

Did my mother know that I was here?

Looking up, I saw a woman in her early thirties walking out. She was very strange, she looked ordinary, but she was dressed neatly, and there was a bit of restraint between her eyebrows.

When she saw Fu Tingyun, she was also shocked and said, "Who are you looking for for Miss?" She glanced at Yuwei suspiciously.

Fu Tingyun calmed down and smiled and said, "This is the house of the fifth master of the Fu family in Huayin? I don't know what my mother calls me? I am a relative of my wife. I come from Weinan and ask this mother to help me pass it." As he said that, he took off the silver bracelet on his wrist and handed it to the woman, "This was what my wife rewarded me back then. Please ask my mother to take it in and take a look at her. The wife will know who I am?"

"From Weinan?" the woman asked, a hint of alert flashing in her eyes.

Fu Tingyun suddenly felt a bad feeling, but she still smiled and said, "Yes, I came from Weinan. I got married with my wife's house. Last time I passed by Huayin, I heard from the grandma that my wife was sick. After I entered Beijing, I came to visit me." Then she looked at Yuwei, "Take some local customs in my hometown and ask my mother to pass it to my wife."

The woman hesitated for a long time and only took the bracelet and said, "I'll go and help the lady report it, please wait." Then she turned around and entered the house, locked Fu Tingyun and Yuwei outside the door with a "splash".
