The closer it is to the capital, the colder the weather is. Li Yaonan was a native of Beijing in his previous life, and Lin Yixuan grew up in the capital. The two of them have adapted well along the way, and they still have the leisure to stand on the bow of the boat to watch the scenery.

Lin Yixuan suddenly remembered that the first time he took a boat with Li Yaonan, that guy kept staring at the beautiful woman on the boat, but he still pulled himself to comment, which made him depressed for a long time. At that time, he thought that he only needed to be a good mistress One more child would be enough for her duty, but in just one year, Li Yaonan turned into a good husband, and she never imagined that she would be so happy.

"What are you thinking about?" Li Yaonan couldn't help asking curiously when he saw the young husband's face was rippling with laughter.

Lin Yixuan glanced at him sideways and raised his eyebrows: "I was thinking of someone who, when he went to Suzhou, seemed to be staring at the painting boat."

Li Yaonan was choked, black history, absolutely black history.

Lin Yixuan smiled lightly, turned around and went back to the cabin, leaving him alone in the wind.

Li Yaonan hastily followed, and found that since eating Xiaofulang, his temper has increased, why is it an old debt, Li Yaonan scratched his hair, and thought carefully, how much dark history he has left, so he has to go and clean it up. It's not a good habit to be frank and lenient.

The relationship between the husband and wife heated up all the way, getting along became more and more natural, Lin Yixuan was no longer always cautious, and the whole person seemed to become cheerful.

Li Yaonan witnessed Husband's transformation with his own eyes, and while he was happy, he couldn't help sighing. No wonder modern people say that love is made. After they have a relationship with each other, their hearts seem to be closer. It's even more tricky, which is really a headache.

Li Yaonan was thinking about having a headache, but there was a gentle smile on his face, there was no trace of trouble, presumably he liked Lin Yixuan's transformation.

Xiao Xu'er is very obedient, the swaying feeling on the boat made him very happy, and now he has gradually recognized people, as soon as Lin Yixuan came, Xiao Xu'er would slip into his arms, and on the contrary, Li Yaonan I threw it aside.

Li Yaonan's heart was sour, and he was jealous of it.

But the good news is that Xiao Xuer did not get sick or catch a cold during the journey. The cabin was furnished very comfortably, and the window was opened a gap, so that the air would not be stuffy, nor would it be uncomfortable due to too much charcoal burning.

Li Yaonan was very fortunate that he had the foresight. The blanket on the floor was thick and soft, and Xiao Xu'er rolled on it casually, and there were many toys beside it. The overall design of the cabin was the prototype of a modern game room.

Xiao Xu'er rolled around on the blanket, and sometimes he couldn't roll when he was wearing thick clothes, so he screamed anxiously, with a posture of swearing not to give up until he reached his goal, and then fell asleep after playing tired go.

In November, the temperature drops suddenly, and the whistling wind blows on the body, which is icy cold.

Li Yaonan was wearing a fur cloak, looked at the gloomy sky, frowned, and only asked the boatman to speed up and buy enough supplies at once, so as not to have to stay for at least one day before leaving.

Lin Yixuan raised the price of the charter boat by 26%. With the huge sum of money, the boatman had to work together to make the journey of more than one month. It took only [-] days to arrive, and it was already mid-November.

The pier in the capital is bustling with people, hawkers yelling, coolies looking for work can be seen everywhere, of course, there are many rich and noble families, the style, the luxury, and the disparity between the rich and the poor form a sharp contrast.

"Young Master, Uncle, here—" Someone shouted at them from a long distance away.

Lin Yixuan took a closer look, and slowly laughed, and only after people ran up to him, he said with a smile: "Yongkang, you're here so early?"

Yongkang nodded, panting and said: "I know that the master is coming to Beijing, the younger one was waiting at the pier a few days ago, and now it's finally here."

"Okay, go back and reward you with the usual money. Is the carriage ready?" Lin Yixuan answered very frankly. It may be because he finally arrived in Beijing, and his mood became better. He thought he would be melancholy and entangled. There is no wave in Zhi's heart, only the relief of not having to take a boat, as if he can go anywhere as long as his husband is by his side.

"Get ready, son and aunt, please get in the car. It's cold, don't freeze the little master, and leave the rest of the work to the little one." Yongkang was elated, and his words were appropriate, and his attitude was respectful. It makes people feel very comfortable.

Li Yaonan admired in his heart, in terms of managing servants, he is indeed not as good as Fu Lang.

The group quickly returned to the mansion. The courtyard had already been tidied up, and the main courtyard was also heated with floor heating. As soon as they entered the house, bursts of warmth rushed over their faces, instantly dispelling the chill outside.The maid hurriedly served them tea to warm up their bodies. After drinking a cup of hot tea, the whole body warmed up. As expected, it was better to be at home.

Xiao Xu'er moved to a new place, and she wasn't used to it at all. From the moment she got off the boat, her little head began to look around, and she was sleeping soundly at the moment.

Lin Yixuan rested for a while, arranged a place for Li Youyan to live, and then wrote to Mother Lin.

Li Yaonan walked around the yard to get acquainted with the surroundings first. This house is the dowry of her husband. It is located on the West Street of the capital. It is a five-entry house. Lin's mother probably spent a lot of thought for this son. Although West Street is not as good as South Street and East Street, it is also a place where wealthy families live, but their status is slightly lower.

Li Yaonan made up his mind in his heart that when he became successful, he would beat gongs and drums to welcome Fulang into South Street.The people living in East Street are princes and aristocrats, ordinary people are not qualified to live there, only South Street is the high-ranking officials and dignitaries, West Street is mostly people who are better than the top and less than the bottom, and as for the North Street, it is a mixed bag.

Li Yaonan didn't go shopping for a long time, the weather was really too cold, it was still comfortable inside.

Back in the main courtyard, Lin Yixuan had already arranged almost everything. After a while, the meals were set up. Looking at the fresh vegetables on the table, the husband and wife had a good appetite, and both ate an extra bowl than usual. It's so hard to swallow, but every day there is a lot of fish and meat, and you will get tired if you eat too much.

Early the next morning, Li Youxin came to visit, and Li Yaonan was very happy. They had reunited after a long absence. Li Youxin had changed a lot. His experience in the capital made him look more gentle, and his whole body exuded a kind of literati demeanor. He couldn't find a shrewdness of the past, but Li Yaonan knew his temperament well, no matter what, the fox would never become a house cat, it would only hide its tail deeper.

Li Youxin told Li Yaonan that he planned to take the imperial examination three years later. At first he thought he was well-prepared, but only when he came to the capital did he realize that he still had a lot to learn. He will have to work hard when he wants to take the imperial examination next time. Preserve strength, accumulate thick and thin hair, and strive to be able to win the title of the gold list in one fell swoop next time.

Li Yaonan also agrees with his idea. Although a successful candidate comes back from the examination, although it is glorious, it will lose the big because of small things. The Guozijian is not so easy to get into.

They chatted for a long time that day, and it was not until evening that Li Youxin took Li Youyan back.

In the next few days, the couple quickly settled the house in order, put all the things brought by Yangzhou into storage, and the servants became orderly.

After finishing his work, Lin Yixuan was frowning. He sent a letter to Lin's mother, but there was no news so far, and he couldn't find any news even when he sent someone. He felt a little worried.

Li Yaonan was also thinking about whether to visit Jingyanghou's mansion, after all, he was the brother-in-law of Jingyanghou's mansion, if he didn't go to visit, it would be hard to justify.

Together, the husband and wife prepared a few valuable gifts, and first sent a post to Jingyanghou Mansion.He didn't wait for a reply from the other side, on the morning of November 28th, Li Yaonan and his husband took the carriage to Jingyang Hou Mansion.

Jingyanghou Mansion has been honored for a hundred years, and standing at the door gives people a sense of grandeur. The stone lions at the door are solemn and solemn, revealing an indescribable coldness, which makes people daunting.

Except of course Li Yaonan, who had been to the Forbidden City quite often in his previous life, this kind of arrogance could not scare him, so he turned his head and ordered the servant to go and call the door.

Lin Yixuan was silent all the way. When he saw the stone lion at the door, his eyes were as cold as ice. Li Yaonan hadn't seen him like this for a long time, so he patted his hand and comforted him: "Don't be afraid, with me here, maybe my mother-in-law will be there." If something is delayed, don't worry."

Lin Yixuan lowered his eyes, raised his head again, and there was a slight smile on his lips, but the smile didn't reach his eyes: "I know, I will distinguish the serious from the serious." At present, he has no right to challenge Jingyanghou's mansion, so He could only smile.

Li Yaonan originally thought it would be very difficult to enter the Marquis's residence, but unexpectedly, the servant came forward to call the door, and after a short while, someone came out to greet them, first bowed to them, and said with a smile: "Ninth Young Master, Ninth Young Master, hello."

Li Yaonan nodded, and looked at him calmly, Lin Yixuan smiled casually: "Wang is good in charge, why did you work today?"

Steward Wang was affable and respectful, and replied respectfully: "Knowing that the ninth son is coming back, the second lady specially ordered the younger one to wait here."

Lin Yixuan's eyes dimmed, no wonder he thought too much, that second aunt was very thoughtful, he never believed that the second aunt would have good intentions.

"Ninth Young Master, Ninth Uncle, come in with me." Guanshi Wang said, and led the way ahead, instead of going through the gate right in front of him, he walked around to the side gate on the north side of Hou Mansion.

This kind of behavior is not impolite. It is the first time for the new son-in-law to come to the door, and most people will open the door wide, but not everyone is like this. Wang Guanshi's behavior is also expected, but Li Yaonan calmed down instead, afraid that he would show up. With a smiling face, people can't figure out the details.

Steward Wang led them straight to the Flower Hall of Beiyuan in the Hou Mansion.

Lin Yixuan's face became ugly, Beiyuan flower hall was not a place to entertain serious guests at all.

"Master Ninth, Young Master Ninth will be here later, the younger one will go to work first." Steward Wang quickly turned around and left without waiting for their reply.
