Ahead, in the carriage that had just been pulled out of the mud pit, two maidservants accompanied a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl.

The young girl has a dignified and beautiful appearance, and has been paying attention to the movement outside the carriage.Seeing Mammy getting into the carriage, the girl asked anxiously, "Did Mammy thank you?"

Mammy smiled and said: "Thank you. The servants just inquired about it. They came from Lingzhou Prefecture. The host is an old man with a youngest child.

The servants took a rough look. The carriage behind them seemed to be pulling heavy things.Apart from the escort team, the other guards are also well-trained, they don't look like ordinary people. "

Ms. Chen scolded and said, "Nurse is really an inquisitor. He helped us, so let's go and thank him, why should we bother with what he is pulling in his carriage.

If it offends others, wouldn't it appear that our Chen family is rude. "

The nanny hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, yes, what the lady said is true."

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and there was chaos between the sky and the earth.

The convoy hurried forward, and finally entered Jeju City when the city gate was locked.

At this time, the Habayashi guard at the front station came to report that the inns in the city were full due to the heavy rain blocking the road, so I had to find a private house.

The nanny just got out of the car and heard it. After thinking about it for a while, she decided to tell her lady.

Miss Chen said: "Since that's the case, Nanny, you can invite them to stay at our house for a night! If it wasn't for them, we might still be drenched in the rain outside the city right now."

Mammy was a little hesitant: "But, miss, should we talk to the master first?"

Ms. Chen said: "No need, it takes a lot of time to go back and forth. Besides, I know my father, he is a person who always repays his kindness, and he will never do something like throwing his benefactor outside in the rain."

When the master and apprentice heard that the owner of the carriage in front invited them to stay in the mansion for one night, they were surprised and very happy.

After thanking the nanny, he ordered the team to follow the carriage of the Chen residence.

After they settled down in the Chen Mansion, they realized that the Chen Mansion was actually one of the largest merchants in Jeju City.No wonder the courtyard is so luxuriously built.

After Patriarch Chen returned home, he was very happy to hear that his precious daughter who had gone to visit his grandfather's family was back.

Hearing that her daughter brought back a team of troops, she couldn't help frowning slightly.

After careful questioning, I found out that they had helped my daughter travel on the road. Because Jeju City was full and couldn't find a place to stay, my daughter invited them back to stay for one night.

He used to be generous and benevolent, said, since the person who helped him the Chen family is the benefactor of the Chen family.So he ordered people to prepare a sumptuous food and drink, and took his wife and children to entertain the benefactor in person.

Hearing that the two masters and apprentices came from Lingzhou Prefecture, Master Chen praised: "Lingzhou is a good place. Not only are there high-yield grains, but there are also tributes such as watermelon. All kinds of canned food produced are also very popular. .

It's a pity that I, Lao Chen, have no connections, otherwise I would have to do this business. "

Hearing that the master and apprentice looked at each other, neither said a word.

After the meal, after returning to the courtyard where he was temporarily staying, Jiang Yuqing asked Miracle Doctor Qiu: "Master, will that Patriarch Chen know my identity?"

Otherwise, why did he talk about grain seeds and watermelons?

Divine doctor Qiu said: "No! You are young, and you always like to stay at home, and you rarely go to county towns. Few people have seen you.

He is a businessman from Jeju, so how could he know you if he has nowhere to go, Yumo is just a few impromptu remarks.However, this Patriarch Chen is indeed not bad. "

"Oh!" Tuanzi nodded thoughtfully.

When Patriarch Chen got up the next day, his servants came to report that the guest who stayed overnight had left.

Patriarch Chen looked at the sky outside, rubbed his temples that were aching from the hangover, and said, "I'm getting old, and I'll get drunk after two drinks. I've only woken up until now, so I've neglected my benefactor."

The servant brought a piece of paper with both hands and said: "Master, this was found in that little guest's room. The servants are illiterate and don't know what it is, so I specially brought it for the master to have a look at."

Patriarch Chen took a look, and there was a line written on it in a very childish and cute, even crooked font, "Ten mu of watermelon, in the middle of June, Qingzhou Hou's Mansion!"

There is a small bright red seal on the place where the signature is signed: "Linghui Township Monarch Seal"

Patriarch Chen was taken aback for a moment, and then became ecstatic.Holding the letter paper, she patted open the gate of her daughter's courtyard: "Yingying, Yingying, come out quickly."

Chen Yingying heard his father yelling anxiously, thinking something happened, she quickly put down the half-read book and ran out of the inner room: "Father, what's the matter, what happened?"

Patriarch Chen excitedly stuffed the letter paper to his daughter and said, "Look at this?"

Chen Yingying took the letter suspiciously and looked at it, she almost jumped up with joy: "It turns out that the cute little sister yesterday turned out to be the township lord of Qingzhou Houfu. We really don't know Taishan with our eyes."

The head of the Chen family laughed loudly and said: "I never thought that my daughter would have such a good fortune to invite such a noble person home. With the guidance of this little townsman, our Chen family's business will definitely go to a higher level."

Chen Yingying said, "This is also our family's blessing. If it weren't for Dad's habit of being kind to others, our family would not be able to make friends with such a noble person. It can be seen that every drink and peck have a certain number."

"Yes." Patriarch Chen was also quite emotional.

"Father, let's hurry up and tell mother and elder brother the good news!"

"Good, good, good..."

Miracle doctor Qiu knew what the precious apprentice was doing.

"The family only plans to plant [-] acres of watermelon in total, and you promised [-] acres as soon as the golden mouth was opened, which is really generous."

Tuanzi said domineeringly: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter who you sell. This Chen family is a good partner, and Daddy will also like it."

Doctor Qiu also thought that the Chen family was very good.Good atmosphere also stresses benevolence and righteousness.

Cooperating with such a person, you can rest assured that you will deliver the back without worrying that someone will stab you from the back.

After passing Jeju, their journey has already gone half way.

Fortunately, although there is rain from time to time in the following journey, it can be regarded as smooth sailing.

Six days after leaving Qingzhou, that is, on the afternoon of the eighth day of March, the convoy finally entered the capital.

The son of the Pingyang Houfu, Qin Jue, personally came to pick him up at the gate of the city.As soon as Jiang Yuqing saw him, he rushed forward and said affectionately: "Uncle Qin, I miss you."

Qin Jue hugged the soft and glutinous dumpling in his arms, and said cheerfully: "Little girl, I haven't seen you for more than a year. It's hard for you to remember me. I'm so touched."

Tuanzi broke his lie unceremoniously: "No wonder, you are touched, I brought the seeds you want."

Qin Jue glared at her pretending to be fierce: "Nonsense!" Then he smiled and patted Tuanzi's little head, "Aren't you tired after walking so far? Are you going home or follow me to my house? "

Tuanzi asked, "Do I have something to eat when I go home? Do I have a bed to sleep in?"

"Of course!" Qin Jue couldn't help scratching her itch and said, "Your father sent several letters from Feige.

Tell me specifically that I must help you straighten out the Hou Mansion before you arrive.Dare I not listen to me? "

Tuanzi hid from the itching, and said with a smile: "Thank you uncle. Don't scratch me, I want to go home."

Only then did Qin Jue put her down, and went up to Miracle Doctor Qiu and bowed his hands respectfully: "The Miracle Doctor has worked hard all the way, please go back to the Marquis Mansion to settle down first."

Miracle doctor Qiu returned a salute and said, "There is a son of labor."

"Don't dare!"

When the convoy arrived at the Hou's Mansion in Qingzhou, the gates of the Hou's Mansion were wide open, and the servants lined up on both sides, saluting in unison: "Welcome Lord Linghui and the genius doctor back to the mansion."

Jiang Yuqing raised his hand and said, "Get up, there are rewards."

"Thank you Xiangjun!"

After entering the gate, Jiang Yuqing solemnly thanked Qin Jue: "Uncle Qin, thank you for taking good care of our mansion.

It's just that we don't know the place well when we first came here, so uncle, can you lend us these people from your family first.

After we buy the manpower, can we return it to you? "

Qin Jue said inscrutably, "You don't need to pay it back. After a while, I'll give you all their deeds of sale. From now on, these will all belong to your family."

Tuanzi was puzzled: "Why, you don't want them?"

Qin Jue was about to speak, but a clear and bright young voice answered, "Because I bought these for your family."

It was Jing Yan who came.

Tuanzi was very happy to see him at first sight, he let go of Miracle Doctor Qiu's hand and rushed towards him: "Ah, little brother, Qingqing misses you."

Jing Yan hugged the boy joyfully, and said with a light smile, "I miss you too!"

The two children kissed each other for a long time, but in the end Miracle Doctor Qiu couldn't stand it any longer, put his hand to his mouth and coughed vigorously, and then stopped.

Jing Yan had already received a letter from Feige from Qingzhou, and he was very excited when he knew that the little guy he was thinking of had come to Beijing.

Knowing that her convoy would arrive in the capital today, she went straight to Pingyang Hou Mansion after the court.Just to pick her up with Qin Jue.

It's just that his status is inconvenient to show up at the gate of the city, so he stayed in Qin Jue's carriage all the time.It wasn't until Qingzhou Hou's mansion that he came down.

Qingzhou Hou's Mansion was originally built according to the regulations of the royal mansion.Due to some special reasons, the mansion has been idle there since it was built.

It wasn't until the emperor bestowed it on Jiang Wenyuan last year that the Ministry of Industry restructured and repaired the mansion in accordance with the regulations that the Hou Mansion should have.It was just finished a while ago.

But the original large frame is there, covering a very large area.

There are a total of 22 large and small yards alone, not including a nearly 20-acre lake and more than 30 acres of landscaping woodland surrounded by walls.

Among them, pavilions, terraces and pavilions, rockery and flowing water, corridors connected by wind and rain, winding paths leading to seclusion, it is a luxurious garden with everything that one expects to find.

Along the way, Jiang Yuqing almost didn't turn his eyes over. Wherever he passed, he could see every five steps and see every ten steps. It was truly beautiful.

She felt that such a beautiful place would not be boring even if she lived in it for a lifetime.

Following the housekeeper's seven turns and turns for about a quarter of an hour, I finally arrived at a second-floor courtyard named "Qingbo Pavilion".

From the looks of it, this is where she will live in the future.

As she expected.Because Qingbo Pavilion is adjacent to the lake, lotus flowers are planted all over the lake, and the surrounding scenery is the most beautiful.

After Jiang Wenyuan got the layout plan of the Hou Mansion, he took a fancy to this place at a glance and decided it as the residence of his precious daughter.And personally named it Qingbo Pavilion.

The layout in the courtyard was all according to her preferences, and the layout in the boudoir was exactly the same as the room in Xijindu's house.

These were also drawn by Jiang Wenyuan, and Qin Jue asked the mothers to arrange them.

With such attention to everything, even Qin Jue couldn't help sighing that it was unprecedented and unique to dote on his daughter so much.

Qiu Miracle Doctor's courtyard is just to the east of Qingbo Pavilion.It is called "Rejuvenation Courtyard".

Take the meaning of rejuvenation.

There are two large flower gardens in the courtyard, and the land is bare at this time, which are prepared for him to grow medicinal materials, which can be regarded as extremely careful.

As for the accompanying Lin's Escorts, they were all arranged in the guest courtyard ahead.

The housekeeper's surname is Zhao, who was originally a retired wounded soldier rescued by Jing Yan in the past.

Later, Jing Yan saw that he had good abilities, so he asked people to focus on training him.

Last year, Jiang Wenyuan was granted the title of Marquis, but there was no one to take care of the large Hou Mansion in Beijing, so he moved his mind and sent him to Qingzhou Hou Mansion to be a housekeeper.

From the day Steward Zhao was sent to Qingzhou Hou's Mansion, he was told that his master's surname would only be Jiang from now on.

Therefore, it is of course necessary to know all kinds of in-law relationships among the family members of the main family.

Knowing that the people in the Lin's Escort Bureau were not only the bodyguards invited by the master's family, but also serious in-laws of the Hou Mansion, they must not be neglected.

Jiang Yuqing was also very satisfied with Butler Zhao's proper response, and immediately rewarded him heavily.

Fearing that the family would not be enough, he was given another 2000 taels of silver and asked him to put it in the public account.

It was Qin Jue who called for dinner from Shengping Building, saying that it was for them to clean up the dust.

Everyone was exhausted after driving for nearly a month.

Therefore, after the meal, Qin Jue and Jing Yan took the initiative to say goodbye and leave, so that the master and apprentice could wash up and rest early.
