This time the schedule was tight, and the occasional stops on the road to replenish fresh water to purchase and sell goods made the atmosphere on the shore more tense, and Han Qingming seemed to be affected, except for occasionally going to the deck to let the wind go, he stayed in a comfortable room on weekdays, and his complexion became more serious.Seeing that his expression became more and more condensed, the chief butler and the second butler consciously arranged all the matters to reduce his time to go out.

It's getting colder outside and I really don't want to go out.

Han Qingming lay on his side in the fur, enjoying the rare heat of hibernation.

so comfortable……

Shuihe vomited all kinds of meat and vegetables, but she gradually got used to it and stopped vomiting, but her complexion was still bad. Feihe was much more relaxed, and she didn't look like she was hurt by love a few months ago. She sometimes went to the deck to see the scenery on both sides of the strait. , Sometimes I go to the kitchen to test my hands, sometimes I recite poems in the house, and I seem to have abandoned the script for a long time.

Write about marriage and love.

It seems that he has come out of the pain, and he has matured a bit.

The speed of the boat was surprisingly fast. In order to shorten the time, they didn't even communicate with the stores in various places. The further north they went, the less property the Han family had.So in only three and a half months, a few people arrived in Zhejiang.

When we disembarked, heavy snow was blowing, and thick ice formed on the river.

Han Qingming was wearing a sweater and padded jacket, covered with clothes, and covered with thick furry. His whole body was bulging and furry, and only his face with ear protectors was exposed in the purple silver gray. There was a fireplace with glowing coals that could be seen through the cushions.

But the moment he stepped out of the cabin, Han Qingming still paused.

I really don't want to go out!

Han Qingming walked in front and quickly entered the carriage waiting at the port. Fei He and Shui He followed closely behind, covered by the special umbrellas of the maids. exposed.

The fragrance is faint, and it still attracts the attention of many passers-by, who either stop to probe or secretly watch.

But the visitors were very careful, so they got into the carriage and used Jinping as a tent, so that no one would look down on the two ladies.For a while, roadside vendors and licensed people couldn't help talking about it.

"I don't know where the big family came from, the rules are so strict!"

"I've never heard of an official taking office..."

"Those maids are all so graceful and beautiful, I really don't know how beautiful the young lady is like a fairy!"

On the side of the road, a few gangsters piled up in one place were drooling, looking at the group of people with golden eyes, one elbowed the other, "Hey! Wang Laizi, do you know what to order?"

The person who was called was stretching his neck to see the looming figure in Jinping. When he was disturbed, he punched him impatiently, "Don't disturb me!"

The other sat a little further back, seeing that the little lady was nowhere to be seen, he just sneered, "Thanks to you, who is known as a well-known know-it-all in Haicheng, there are still people who don't know!"

At this time, the carriage has left slowly, and there is a gust of fragrant wind in the air, as if there is still nothing.Feeling lost, the man withdrew his gaze, his face still reluctant to part, "Yeah! You're the only ones who are scumbags! You also want to use the aggressive method on me? This is a move I haven't used 800 years ago! Treat me like a deep-fried dough stick. Who is the son!"

One person is also reluctant to part.

That fragrance!He never smelled it!It smells better than the most fragrant rouge in the shop!

The man couldn't help but licked his face and said, "What a fried dough stick, Fifth Master You! Can you tell us, who is this?" , Guessing that he knew something about that group of people.

"You are a well-known inquisitor in our ten miles, eight towns and even nearby towns, you know everything!"

Seeing this, the other two people also praised him one after another, and they praised You Tiaozi, a scoundrel, as if there is nothing in the sky and earth, like a great man from ancient times to the present.

You Tiaozi was smothered by the praise, Fang put on airs and said, "Since you praise me so much, I will give you a little reminder."

The one who spoke first and praised immediately said, "Master! Tell me!"

You Tiaozi coughed twice, then said in a soft tone, "This throat...is a little thirsty."

The man was very clever, Ma Liu went to a tea stall to buy a bowl of tea, brought it back, drank the fried dough sticks in one gulp, and said, "These people have luxurious clothes and rich patterns, they come from the river, but recently The officials moved, and the officials didn't have such a rich and noble style. They went to the east of the city. I know that there are a few wealthy families in the east of the city who moved from Shaocheng in Pingyang. We have never seen their clothes and colors here. It must not be from the small city of Shaocheng, this family, I have heard before, is a wealthy businessman from Pingyang, the Han family."

A Chinese character smacked his lips, "Such a grandeur, is she not an official lady?" She curled her lips as she said.

Another person mocked, "It seems that Miss Shangjia can climb up to you."

At the beginning, the one who begged for mercy got the information, but his eyes were straightened, and he didn't know what to think.

Youtiaozi seemed to be aware of it, and patted him, "It's Miss Shangjia, who can have this kind of ostentation, that's rich and rich, and us mud legs, tsk tsk tsk, it's heaven and earth! You just have to see it, Don't have any wishful thinking."

The pleading man also listened, and his face was deep.

The other two laughed one after another, "That's for sure, isn't it because you have eaten the bear's heart and leopard courage, and still can't tell who you are?"

"It's not something that doesn't know what's good or bad, how can you think about it!"

Only the person who spoke before was silent, feeling lost.

You Tiaozi saw it in his eyes and shook his head without saying a word.

However, that hooligan gave him an idea.

Fei Heshui's home horse cart was in front. When Fei He got off the car, a woman helped her up. Seeing her hand on her arm was long, soft and white, as tender as peeling a boiled egg, and exuding a faint fragrance, she couldn't help being speechless and flattering. Said, "As expected of a young lady, unlike us rough wives, this hand is almost as good as tender tofu."

Fei He paused for a moment, and said softly, "This is the hand that has also planted the ground, planed wild vegetables, and fed chickens and ducks."

There is a touch of memory and melancholy in the tone.

The mother-in-law didn't believe it. Although she was still smiling, there was disdain in her eyes.

Seeing that the mother-in-law didn't believe it, Fei He only sighed lightly.After getting out of the car, a maid immediately covered her with an umbrella, and she entered the door like stars.

To be honest, I don't believe it...

No matter how happy and rich she is now, she will never forget the hardships she suffered many years ago... The present prosperity is all earned by her brother.It's a pity that parents never enjoyed...

Han Qingming waited for his younger sisters to enter the house under the guard of the servant girls before entering the house. After that, all the servants and servants entered through the side door, and the carriage also entered from there, and the gate of the deep house, which had been hung with the plaque of the Han family earlier, was closed again.

Only the shadows of people and the heat and fragrance that seem to be there are left.

On the second day, all the families in Fuling Lane in the east of the city received an invitation card and gifts, saying that the Han family, a newcomer, would settle here and invite all neighbors to the banquet.

The neighbors in the neighborhood are all wealthy and high-ranking officials. Zhejiang and Pingyang are far away, so it is not so well-regulated.The better the house, the closer it is. Han Qingming has a lot of money, and this time he plans to live here, so he bought a very good house, which is located on the second street from the inside.

The first street is next door, and his house is at the intersection.

Further inside, there are the palaces of princes and princes in Zhejiang and the dignitaries here.

Han Qingming is currently not eligible to move in.

After all, he is just a merchant.

but……

Standing in the courtyard, looking at the north wall, a meaningful and ambiguous smile slowly appeared on his face, and there was a trace of indescribable, wild looking things on his cold red face, making him gentle and handsome There was a bit of unexpected wildness on his face.

If you can't get in now, it doesn't mean you can't get in in the future.

The second housekeeper and the third housekeeper came to Zhejiang early to make preparations. The Han house has been taken care of in an orderly manner. Now that it is winter, there is heavy snow, but the path in the courtyard is clean and there is no trace of snow. There are not many plums planted in the corner, and the branches are sparse. The red plums are covered by the snow with only slight traces, but they look extraordinarily strong.

The front yard was swept clean, long tables and round stools were placed, decorated with jade vases and red plums, the surroundings were covered by screens, and there was a charcoal basin. The head steward and several servants stood at the door to welcome the guests, while Han Qingming was in the front yard, Lead waves of guests to the seats prepared in advance.

The male and female families are separated, and in the middle is a brocade screen with a hundred birds facing the phoenix. You can hear the mingling of the next door, but you can't see anyone.

Han Qingming entertained the male relatives, while Fei He led Shuihe to welcome the female relatives.

There is the smell of burning incense in the air, elegant and leisurely, not any kind of spice outside.

A chubby old man in ochre-colored silk twitched his nose and praised, "The fragrance in Brother Han's home is wonderful. It doesn't look like the spices sold outside. Could it be that it's made in secret?"

Han Qingming's smile is elegant and elegant, not like a businessman, but more like a Confucian scholar.

"Just kidding, this is the incense researched by Sister She herself. It's called Sanxiang Yanluo." He said modest words, but Han Qingming's gentle face carried a hint of pride, which made the guests around him smile knowingly or flash their eyes. , There were endless praises for a while.

Most of them knew the details of the Han family, and this young man who made a fortune in a short period of time must not be underestimated.

I heard that this younger generation is also known as a scholar, so he can be called a Confucian businessman. He can't help getting close to some officials, and even makes other pure businessmen who have never been close to official names throughout their lives feel admiration.

After all, for vulgar businessmen who are full of money in the hearts of the world, how sacred and honorable is the scientific examination to be a scholar.

How determined and persistent this young man is to abandon his official position and go into business!

It also made many businessmen feel proud and proud.

A dignified guest with the appearance of an official said, "To be able to make this kind of spices, I think the Miss Han family is also a very elegant person."

Han Qingming had shown gentleness and humility since he entered the door, and this was the first time he showed such a proud expression. Although the expression on his face was concealed, the presence was all human, how could he not see it?

Many people secretly winked at the banquet.

In the women's quarters next door, Fei He was wearing a silver fox fur, with a whole set of white jade makeup on her head, occasionally embellished with tourmalines, and an excellent tourmaline of the same color fell between her foreheads, making her look extraordinarily wealthy, but with a sense of immortality.

Shuihe behind him is still in water red, from the inside to the outside is bright red, tied with a fiery red fox fur cape, she is more resistant to the cold than her elder brothers and sisters, facing the young lady next to the female relatives, giggling like silver bells ring.

"The hairpin on my sister's head is so strange, I've never seen it before!"

Shui He's eyes moved slightly, the corners of her mouth twitched, and a very bright smile appeared on her lips covered in bright red lipstick, "This is a handmade hairpin from my brother's family. My sister made it for me. They are all unique designs!"

The young lady showed an envious expression, "It turns out that your brother sold the handmade hairpin! We also sell it here, but our hands are clumsy and we can't make such a pattern. Your flowers are also very fresh. I think it was us. It’s far away from Pingyang, and there’s no goods yet!”

Shui He was thoughtful and said with a smile, "That's not the case. The things on my head were specially typed out by my brother, the Glass Workshop and Gold Silver Workshop. They are not sold outside, but if you like it, I can give it to you. A few. I still have a few glazed flowers in the box, and your skin is pink, which is just right for you!"

The young lady smiled shyly, "It's impossible, besides, even if you gave me away, I wouldn't do it."

Shui He said, "What can't be done? They are all neighbors. In the future, if you don't know how to do it, you will have to move around frequently. If you don't know how to do it, I will teach you. I am not as skillful as my sister, but my sister has done a lot for me. I can’t make a good style, but I can do some tricks.”

Another lady in a fur fur with a tender red skirt also came over, "New sister from the Han family, you must not be partial! I gave it to the Miss Zhang family, but let us return empty-handed~" Yanyan laughed, her voice sounded like Broken jade, even if it takes advantage, can make people feel uncomfortable.

Shuihe and the young lady in the tender red dress exchanged eyes, and they both smiled, "How can it be, everyone who comes is a guest, and I, Han Shuihe, am the most generous," said with a loud voice, "Sisters and sisters will be here soon I go in my house, new households always give housewarming gifts, I have a lot of beautiful tricks, you can choose from them~"

The young lady in the tender red skirt smiled and opened her sleeves, and took off a string of blood-red agate bracelets from her tender white arms, "My sister is generous, and my sister can't be stingy."

Shui He was not polite, took the bracelet, put it on, and showed it to a bunch of little girls, "What's the matter? Isn't it pretty?"

The little girls all laughed, a girl in a purple shirt and lavender cloak had picturesque eyebrows and eyes, with a scent of books, "Shy~"

Shui He stuck out her tongue, "All the sisters are well-educated and reasonable, but I am a shameless one~"

Fei He was still a little worried about her younger sister. Seeing that her younger sister handled things well, the girls' table was filled with voices and swallows for a while, so she felt relieved and said, "Sisters-in-law and aunts are surprised, there are only three orphans in my family, and no elders. It was supposed to be received by the elders, but now I am the only one who entertains the elders."

"It's okay," a round-faced woman said, "it's not easy for the three of you."

A woman was startled when she heard the words, and asked the calm woman next door in a low voice, "Why are there no elders? Could it be..."

The steady woman glared at her, and answered in a low voice while drinking tea, "You didn't check carefully before you came, you are rash! This family's parents died early, and the elder brother is the head of the family. There are only three brothers and sisters."

The woman who asked the question was startled, gasped and said, "It's pitiful."
