With Yang Xi and the others, they will meet again soon after the Chinese New Year, except for Qin Yan.

Qin Luochuan sighed and said: "Father, take good care of your health, and if something happens, please send a letter to me."

"I know," Qin Yan said, "Take good care of Qingyue, follow your own heart in everything, don't force yourself to do things you don't like, if you are not happy, you might as well go home and farm."

Qin Luochuan couldn't help laughing, and all the depression that Qin Yan couldn't go with for the past few days dissipated, "Thank you father for teaching, son knows."

Both of them have a free and easy temperament, if they are not happy, then they might as well go home and farm.

As the boat left the shore slowly, Qin Luochuan waved to a few people, telling them to go back early, the wind was strong by the river, so as not to freeze.

He himself brought Shang Qingyue into the cabin.

The cabin that He Feixing left for them was on the far left. It was not small. There was a bed and a table behind it, and there was still a lot of space. The small compartments for meals come out so that they can cook small stoves by themselves, so they don't have to eat and drink with the boatmen and fellows.

Otherwise, Qin Luochuan didn't care, Shang Qingyue, a pregnant woman, could have a more refined diet.

A brazier was set up in the cabin, and it was very warm. When Qin Luochuan and Shang Qingyue entered, they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

It was too cold outside.

Next to the brazier is a teapot and a water basin. The teapot is for them to drink water at any time while warming up. The water basin is used to keep the humidity in case the brazier burns and the cabin is too dry.

These were arranged by Qin Luochuan in advance.

The warm hand stove was in the palm, and there was another brazier next to it. After a while, the two of them finally recovered from the cold body blown by the river wind.

Shang Qingyue took out the purse from Qin Yan from her arms, handed it to Qin Luochuan and said, "Husband, keep it."

"Of course you keep what your father gave you." Qin Luochuan said, "Let's see what it is first."

Shang Qingyue put down the hand stove, turned her body sideways again, to prevent things from falling into the brazier if she accidentally dropped them, and then carefully took out the things in her purse.

Shang Qingyue said: "It's a jade pendant."

The doors and windows of the cabin were tightly closed, leaving only a little gap for ventilation, so the light could not come in, and it was very dim, but as soon as the jade pendant was taken out, Qin Luochuan could see its excellent texture, which had already shined lustrously under the light of the fire .

Shang Qingyue directly touched it with her hands, so she could intuitively feel the delicateness and warmth of the jade.

It was actually much better than the jade hairpin given to him last time.

This is not what shocked the two of them the most.

The hollow pattern in the middle of the jade pendant formed a Qin character in seal script. Even though Qin Luochuan had only lived in this world for a few years, he knew that most of the inscriptions on the jade pendant were symbols of status.

The two were stunned for a long time before Shang Qingyue said: "There is still something in the purse."

Qin Luochuan took the jade pendant from his hand and didn't know where to put it, and said, "Take it out and have a look."

The jade pendant was taken away by Qin Luochuan, and Shang Qingyue felt that the pressure on her body was much less. She took out the remaining paper in the purse, put the purse aside and put it in a safe place, and then carefully unwrapped the paper that had been folded into small pieces .

He had an intuition that this thing would be the same as that jade pendant, absolutely extraordinary.

After opening it to see the contents clearly, Shang Qingyue came to her senses after a long time and said, "It's the deed."

"Is there any problem?" Qin Luochuan asked, based on what he knew about Qin Yan, and Qin Yan's abnormal behavior when he said he was going to the capital, he could probably guess that the other party should have lived in the capital before.

The father and son have lived together for so many years, and Qin Luochuan still knows Qin Yan's financial ability. If he had really lived in the capital before, it would be normal for him to have a house.

"It's a five-entry house with an address on East Street." Shang Qingyue was so shocked that she didn't know how to express it.

After a while, seeing my husband's still blank expression, I realized that my husband had never been to the capital and didn't know the layout of the capital, so he slowly explained: "The capital is the same as the town, and most of the people living in each area are For people of a fixed class, West Street is a mixed bag, North Street is for ordinary people, and South Street is for dignitaries and wealthy businessmen.

"The imperial palace is on the East Street. Apart from that, there are only residences of princes and nobles on the East Street. No one else is eligible to live there."

When Qin Luochuan heard this, something flashed through his mind quickly, but it was too fast, before he had time to catch it, it passed.

Shang Qingyue saw that her husband's mouth was slightly opened, and his eyes were at a loss, and he was obviously equally shocked.

Can't help but ask quietly: "What is the identity of the father?"

"I don't know either," Qin Luochuan shook his head and said, "When I met my father, he should have arrived in Yuxi Town not long ago. He obviously didn't need money, but he lived alone in the mountains and couldn't do many things. It's a mess, I can't even cook well, and I'm picky, so the most eaten are all kinds of roasted game."

"Father can roast game?" Shang Qingyue asked in surprise.

People who can't even cook well can actually roast wild game, which is really beyond Shang Qingyue's expectation. You must know that wild game is mostly strong, and if it is not handled well, it is difficult to make it delicious.

"Yes, and it was baked very well," Qin Luochuan said, "It's just that after he found out that I can cook, he never baked it again."

Shang Qingyue was even more puzzled when he heard the words. He had doubted before whether his father might be a son of an aristocratic family who ran away from the family for some reason, because no matter how he talked or his temperament, his father was better than the sons of aristocratic families he had met in the capital. It is much stronger, but what is puzzling is that even a son of an aristocratic family, as a twin, must know how to cook and needlework, but his father seems to have never learned it at all.

No matter how much the husband and wife discuss, it is impossible to know the result, so why waste their minds.

So Qin Luochuan said: "I don't think so much anymore, since my father gave you the deed and the jade pendant, after we live in the house, we will know what we should know."

Since only princes and nobles can live in East Street, there will always be someone who knows who the owner is in a big house.

Qin Luochuan suddenly felt that if he was reborn here, he might really have met the legendary golden thigh.

Upon hearing this, Shang Qingyue glared at Qin Luochuan, and said, "Your husband should keep the jade pendant and deed."

These two things are too precious, especially the jade pendant, Shang Qingyue thinks it is more appropriate for her husband to keep them.

Qin Luochuan pondered for a moment, and said: "Then I will keep the jade pendant, and you will keep the house deed."

The main reason is that Qin Yan's identity and the meaning of the jade pendant are not yet known, so it's better to collect it first.

Ever since she bought the teahouse, Shang Qingyue found that her husband would always hand over the house deeds and land deeds to him whether it was intentional or not.

This time it was the same, so he didn't refuse again.

The boat sailed for nearly a month, and the closer it was to the capital, the colder the weather became, but luckily it never snowed.

During the time on the boat, apart from studying books, Qin Luochuan took care of Shang Qingyue's daily life, not to mention three meals a day, as well as daily melon and fruit snacks.

Some things can be kept for a long time, while others can't. The things that can't be kept for a long time are all bought by Qin Luochuan when the ship is docking for supplies.

There are few fruits and vegetables in winter, so the price is naturally high, but as long as he sees the right ones, Qin Luochuan will buy them without blinking an eye. He is afraid that Shang Qingyue will not get enough vitamins during the time on the boat.

In addition, no matter how cold it is, he will wrap Shang Qingyue tightly every day and take her to the deck to breathe.

Although the cabin is not small, it is annoying to stay in it all day, so going to the deck to let the wind out has become Shang Qingyue's most anticipated activity every day.

The ever-changing scenery on both sides of the strait, coupled with the customs and customs explained by her husband, always had to be urged by Qin Luochuan, and Shang Qingyue was willing to return to the cabin, and then continued to pester Qin Luochuan to tell him stories.

Qin Luochuan had never experienced these things himself, so he didn't know if they were true or not. He had read them from some travel notes and miscellaneous books, but Shang Qingyue listened to them with great interest.

With Qin Luochuan's careful care and a good mood, not only did Shang Qingyue feel no discomfort during the one-month life on the boat, on the contrary she became plump a lot.

On the day I arrived in the capital, the sky was gloomy, as if it was about to snow.

After the boat stopped at the pier, the steward came forward and asked, "Where is Mr. Qin staying? I'll send you there."

Qin Luochuan said: "If you still want to deliver the goods, don't bother, we can go there by ourselves."

There is a horse-drawn carriage next to the pier. Although he and Shang Qingyue brought a lot of things, they can be pulled over in one trip by ordering a few more horse-drawn carriages.

"No trouble," said the manager with a smile. "Our shop in the capital is nearby, and they came directly to pick up the goods. Most of the brothers are idle."

Qin Luochuan thought for a while and said, "Then I'll call for a few carriages, and then I'll ask my brothers to help me unload my luggage, and I'll find a few people to accompany the carriages to help me take it to my place of residence."

Although it is convenient to find a carriage, but they have so many things, it is better to have a few of their own people to watch over them so that it is not easy to lose things.

"Okay, no problem." The person in charge responded readily.

When they were on the boat, Qin Luochuan discussed with Shang Qingyue. Although they didn't know what happened to the house that Qin Yan gave them, the two of them would eventually live in it. They might as well send their things there first, even if the house was abandoned , It's better than moving back and forth to the inn first, and then to the house.

In fact, Qin Luochuan was completely overwhelmed, knowing that they were going to the East Street, the drivers almost bowed their heads, how could they dare to follow their orders.

The four carriages were filled with the things that Qin Luochuan and the others had brought, and they stopped in front of the courtyard. Although he had made countless plans, when he saw the high gate courtyard and the word "Qin Mansion" on the plaque, Qin Luochuan would still I couldn't help but wonder if I was in the wrong place.

Moreover, although the gate of the house was closed, the entrance was clean and there was no sign of disuse. It was obvious that someone had been taking care of it for a long time. In addition, Qin Yan only gave them the deed, but not the key.

Under Shang Qingyue's equally puzzled gaze, Qin Luochuan said, "I'll knock on the door first."

A group of people just waited around the door, but fortunately no one was passing by at this time, otherwise a few carriages would stop here and block their way.

As Qin Luochuan guessed, there were people in the house, and after he knocked on the door for a while, someone came to open the door.

The hale and hearty old man looked around outside the door, and finally landed on Qin Luochuan, asking, "Excuse me, sir?"

Qin Luochuan said: "This is Qin Luochuan, my father Qin..."

"Young master?" Before Qin Luochuan finished speaking, he was interrupted by the old man.

"You...know me?" Qin Luochuan was startled by the old man's sudden approach across the threshold, and asked hesitantly.

The old man replied: "The young master sent a letter a few days ago, saying that you will take your husband to Beijing for the exam in the near future, and told the old slave to tidy up the yard. The old slave is looking forward to you, young master."

"Father...forget it." Qin Luochuan immediately took it back after halfway through his words. Since Qin Yan had concealed his identity from him, he shouldn't ask others, and he had a hunch that he would know soon everything.

Glancing at Shang Qingyue who was still waiting in the carriage, Qin Luochuan asked, "Then can we go in now?"

"Although this old slave knows that young master is coming, this old slave has never seen you before." The old man smiled and said, "The young master should have given you a token, can I show this old slave."

The land deed was put away by Shang Qingyue, and Qin Luochuan didn't want him to search for it, so he simply took out the jade pendant from the space in the posture of holding something, handed it to the old man and asked, "Is this okay?"

Seeing this, the old man's face changed, and he said repeatedly: "Of course, of course."

After moving all the things into the house, when Qin Luochuan went to give money to the groom, he realized that the old man had already given it, so he took some money to help the man.

When he came back, the old man had already called all the servants in the house into the hall, waiting to be introduced to Qin Luochuan.

Only then did Qin Luochuan know that the old man was Qin Yan's steward who stayed in this house, and his name was Li Fu. Qin Luochuan and Shang Qingyue simply called him Uncle Fu. So settle down.

In addition, there are four cleaning maids, two big maids, a personal servant, a cook, and two handymen in the courtyard, a total of ten people.

"Originally there were only two handymen in the house responsible for cleaning," Uncle Fu said, "Other people were arranged by the old slave after receiving a letter from the young master."

After finishing speaking, Uncle Fu handed the contract of sale in his hand to Qin Luochuan and said, "This is a contract of sale for several people. If the young master feels that there are not enough people, the old slave will go and get some more."

The servant girls prepared by Uncle Fu can meet almost all the needs of Qin Luochuan and Shang Qingyue. Just looking at the few thin contracts of sale in his hand, Qin Luochuan only has one idea, where did the money to buy these people come from? Pay it back?

Is the spare money in his hand enough for these people to sell themselves, and for these people's wages later, it must be a lot, right?
