Lady of Fortune, Jiao Niang

When the ship docked on the shore, it was just past noon, but because it was early spring, the sun was not so venomous, and it felt warm when it shone on the body.

After Ye Jiao took Qi Yun's hand and walked off the boat, she felt the feeling of being down-to-earth and then boarded the carriage again.

Holding Ruyi in his arms, Qi Yun gave his daughter a finger to make her grind her teeth, while his eyes were watching Ye Jiao slowly and said, "It will take a long time to walk from here to the capital, but I want to live outside the city for a night. , And then enter the city, don’t have to rush, and you just got off the boat, it’s time to rest."

In fact, Ye Jiao quite wanted to see the new home early, but Qi Yun made sense, and she agreed.

It’s just that Qi Yun from the capital city is also the first to come back, plus they don’t want to disturb Ye Pingrong and Princess Huaning, they didn’t pass the news on purpose. Tie Zi and a few of Ye Pingrong’s subordinates led the way. Walking on the road.

Ye Jiao had just slept, and it was time for her to feel refreshed. Even if she held Ning Bao in her arms, she couldn't stop her curiosity when she looked out.

The capital is very different from my hometown. Even if it is a suburb, the difference can be seen.

Apart from other things, the mountain that Qi Yun bought was lush and lush with trees, but the forest outside the capital was much shorter, and it was obviously deliberately repaired. Lost that share of comfort, but more. Some meticulous craftsmanship.

But Ye Jiao still liked it very much. At least the road was well-built and smooth, and the carriage walked on it without any bumps.

Not long after, I arrived at the inn where I wanted to stay.

Normally, this road is prepared for merchants who come and go, mostly for the preparation of those who transport goods into the city. Although there are other small inns nearby, only here can feed horses.

After arriving at the place, Tiezi turned over and got off his horse, and walked to the shop's second child: "Can I still go to the house?"

Dian Xiaoer looked at the clothes of this group of people and knew that it was rich or expensive, especially the first few, even if they were wearing ordinary clothes, they knew they were Lianjiazi by looking at their stature.

Ordinary people don't need so many hardcover guards to go out.

There were more people coming and going to the shop, so he was naturally discerning, so he hurriedly said with a smile: "Master, the shop is full today, I am really sorry."

Full house?

Tiezi was taken aback for a moment, but did not ask carefully, but first glanced at the stable beside him.

There were only three horses in it, and the guest hall was deserted. Tiezi couldn't help but frown, "Is it really full, or are you using words to stop me?"

The shop Xiaoer also showed a bitter smile on his face, and said in a low voice: "Master, I see you are a reasonable person, and I don’t want to hide it from you. Today, we are here to let someone give it to you. Our shopkeeper doesn’t want to pick it up. We can't afford to keep saying that we know people."

"People you know? Who do you know?"

"Qi family."

The corner of Tiezi's mouth shook, and he turned to look at the carriage that was still quiet, then turned to look at Xiaoer, "Which Qi family?"

Xiao Er from the shop looked at Tiezi with a little surprise: "Master, don't you know? It's the Qi family who just got the golden plaque. I heard that there is also a business in the capital. Our store is only their jade liquor and gold bottles. I don’t know how much the wine has been sold. Now that the girl from the Shen family is in the palace to be selected, and she said that she is related to the Qi family, we naturally dare not refuse to accept it."

After saying this, Tiezi felt that his eyelids were jumping.

Even if he didn't deliberately inquire about the Shen family's affairs, he would know a general idea. After all, he had been with Qi Yun all the time, and a lot of news was still passed on by iron.

The Shen family couldn't figure it out, and pushed the Dong family's marriage to the palace. Their eldest grandmother Fang Shi and Shen family got married, and they were cried back in anger when they tried to persuade them.

It's better now. Their decent second young master and second young grandmother of the Qi family have been blocked by relatives who don't know where to talk about it. They are still relying on the power of the Qi family...

To be honest, according to the unranked family of the Shen family, even the Qi family did not invite them to a banquet. This girl Shen has never even seen her own family. Where did she get her face? .

Tiezi couldn't laugh at something like a joke.

He walked quickly to the carriage, ready to ask Qi Yun for an idea.

And Qi Yun in the carriage had heard it sincerely a long time ago.

In fact, it’s a trivial matter that this inn can’t live. It really counts as first come first, and the girl from the Shen family came first. Even though the shelf is bigger and the squanderer talks a little bit, it’s always the people who live in and take the inn, he There is no reason to blast the Shen family out.

But Qi Yun didn't want to stick to them.

Now it is clear that Chu Chengyun didn't mean to accept his concubine at all. Whoever went there was unlucky. The Qi family was just an ordinary farmer and merchant, and naturally he was not willing to rub their light.

What's more, this is not a good thing now, but a curse.

The Shen family happily rushed to squeeze inside, don't think about pulling their own tiger skins.

But Qi Yun didn't say anything immediately, instead he looked at Ye Jiao first and said, "Is there anything you want to eat?"

Ye Jiao thought for a while. Ye Jiao thought about eating it and rubbed Ning Bao's little hand, squeezing and squeezing it. After a while, he said, "I want to eat three simmering bamboo shoots."

Qi Yun nodded, then opened the curtain slightly, and said to Tiezi: "Go and ask the second person, if there are three bamboo shoots in the store."

Not long after, Tiezi came back and said, "He said no."

Ye Jiao narrowed his mouth and said nothing, but this also made Qi Yun lose his last interest in the inn.

The man’s voice was calm: “It’s okay. We should be able to stay in the store before the sun sets in time when we enter the city.” Then Qi Yun’s voice paused, “Tiezi, find someone to go in and talk to the shopkeeper, Shen’s family. It has nothing to do with our family. Don’t mix it up together.”

Tiezi replied and called a fellow who followed: "Dong Wu, come here."

Dong Wu ran over immediately, raised his head after speaking to Tiezi, and turned his head into the store.

And in a room in the store, Miss Shen is taking a selfie in the mirror.

Although it was picked up by Zhizhou, since he can be sent to the palace, and he is sure that he can be selected, it is natural that he can't pick out the wrong things.

Liu Yemei, apricot-core eyes, look best when they smile, and those eyes seem to be attractive.

Miss Shen's favorite is her face. She has such a good look. Of course, she wants to give herself a chance. So Dong Jialangjun is not a fake, but since she has a chance to attack , Who cares about Dong Jialang?

Jinwu is worthy of her good looks.

While looking in the mirror, I suddenly heard the sound of opening the door, as well as the noisy movement outside.

This disturbed Miss Shen's good spirits, she frowned slightly, and when she turned her head to look, she saw that it was the maid beside her who came in.

The maid’s face was a little flustered. After closing the door, she walked quickly to Miss Shen and squatted down and said in a low voice: “Girl, it’s broken, the shopkeeper knows that we have nothing to do with the Qi family, and just said that we don’t have enough money. The person who rented the inn had to add 50 more pens. I said no, he let others into the shop."

Miss Shen was taken aback, then panicked: "How did he know this?"

Along the way, she used the guise of the Qi family to make money, and she was suddenly pierced by someone to avoid confusion.

The maid said: "It seems that someone recognized us and told the shopkeeper. I heard the shopkeeper called him. It was Dong Wuye."

In fact, Tiezi picked Dong Wu because he was close enough and he pulled it in. The usual little servant slumped in front of the owner, but he would inevitably be the boss to talk big when he went out, with his chin raised. High, the more publicized, the more afraid of others.

Don't say anything else, just now the shopkeeper gave Dong Wu a lot of money as a compensation and asked him to speak nice things.

But this surname sounds terrible to Miss Shen's ears.

It was the Dong family that she retired, but now it's another surnamed Dong who came to expose her lie, so she would naturally think about it.

Thinking about this, there was an unknown fire in my heart, but I couldn’t tell what I could be angry with, so I could only force it down, gritted my teeth and said: "Don’t worry about him, it’s a big deal, we will go to another inn to live in. That is," the voice paused, "I will be the master when I enter the palace in the future, and I will let the Dong family know what the rules are...come here and comb your hair!"

The maid was slapped in the face by the wooden comb that Miss Shen threw over, but she didn't dare to say more, she just hung her head and went forward to comb her hair bun.

And Qi Yun's motorcade has already entered the city gate.

The capital city is said to be a capital city, but it is not a castle in the sky. In Ye Jiao's view, it is still the same as the city that Yi Qianjin has visited, with city walls, moats, and row upon row of street shops.

The difference is that the capital is really big.

Ye Jiao had already put Ning Bao in the car, and she leaned over at the window of Che Yu and looked out. While watching, she was surprised to say to Qi Yun, "Msang Gong, look, there is someone selling apricot cheese... There is also Fengshengzhai here. Is that one selling steamed buns? There are also wontons, which look so delicious."

Qi Yun laughed as he listened. Even though he had never been to the capital, he didn't think it was any strange, but seeing the freshness of his wife, Qi Yun felt particularly interesting.

There was also a hint of sweetness in my heart.

I think there is nothing wrong with the original decision, it is time to go out, and Jiao Niang also likes to go out and go.

I brought her out by myself.

When he thinks of this, Qi Yun is inexplicably proud, happier than he has earned more gold and silver.

And what Ye Jiao said was delicious, Qi Yun asked people to buy some, and didn't buy too much. Just come a little and taste the freshness.

It's just that the carriage hasn't reached the place for a long time, and Ye Jiao has a new understanding of the "big" of Beijing.

After waiting, Ye Jiao had enough of the street view, so she concentrated on holding the buns to eat.

Ruyi also wanted to come over and take a bite, but was hugged and avoided by Qi Yun. Ruyi was unwilling and twisted. Qi Yun put her in Ning Bao’s small bed, and Ruyi hugged Ning. Bao, the two of them hugged each other and became quiet immediately.

Ye Jiao took the time to ask Qi Yun, "Miangong, where is your store?"

Qi Yun did not answer directly, but corrected: "It's our shop."

Little Ginseng blinked and corrected obediently: "Yes, where is our shop?"

Qi Yun asked Ye Jiao to lean on him, and said indifferently: "A total of one store has been opened here. There is a lot of money here. It has just been a year and can't be done too much, but if you can afford to support the girls and children, don't worry. ."

He had read the accounts in the store, and Tiezi had also reported it when he chose the location. Even if he didn't see it with his own eyes, Qi Yun knew everything in the capital.

Perhaps others think that a store is already very good, but for Qi Yun, everything has just started and there is still a long way to go in the future.

Ye Jiao nodded. After being a person for so long, Little Ginseng can also understand some art of speaking about people.

One year is really too short, and it's normal to open a store that is not too big. My husband is not prepared to disappoint myself.

Little Ginseng was very considerate and did not continue to ask, but handed the bun to Qi Yun.

Qi Yun didn't like to eat meat, but he would eat whatever Ye Jiao handed him. This time he opened his mouth and took a bite.

The steamed buns on the roadside were very fragrant, but slightly oily. Qi Yun thought he was not used to it, but when he bit into his mouth, he found that it was much better than expected.

As a result, the two ate a steamed bun separately, and they laughed and talked while eating, and when the carriage stopped, one steamed bun was finished.

Tiezi's voice came from outside: "Second Young Master, Second Young Grandma, we are here."

Xiao Su hurriedly got up, opened the door of the car, and went down first, while Tiezi went to carry the low stool she was stepping on and put it next to the car.

After Qi Yun got out of the car, and Xiao Su reached out to help Ye Jiao get out of the car, Mo and Xiao Su got in the car again to hold the dragon and phoenix tires.

But when I came down, I saw Ye Jiao standing motionless.

Xiao Su was a little strange, and then raised his head.

Then, I saw the plaque of "Qijia Wine Shop" hung on the three floors in front of him.

The same plaque is hung on the half street next to it...

Xiao Su was stunned, her mouth slightly widened.

Didn’t the Second Young Master say that every inch of the capital’s land is rich?Didn’t you say that you haven’t grown up for a year?

But, this is so big...

Ye Jiao didn't expect that the small shop she imagined would look like this, she looked at Qi Yun blankly, and said nothing.

In fact, Qi Yun has always been telling the truth that there is indeed only one store, and every inch of land in the capital is not fake, but his worst is money.

But now that he can see the gaze of his wife's worship, Qi Yun's heartbeat is faster and his ears are red.

With a light cough, Qi Yun said, "It's cold outside, let's go in first."

Ye Jiao nodded, stretched out her hand, and tightly grasped Qi Yun's hand, her fingers clasped tightly.

But before entering the store, I heard Ye Pingrong's subordinate who had been escorting them into Beijing: "Master, madam, my master is here."
