Chapter 2169 Guizijuan new house, old man

  Looking at the majestic city walls of Xi'an City, Duan Xipeng and Wang Wenyan glanced at the convoy behind them, and at the same time breathed a sigh of relief.

  After crossing the Yellow River, they found a few more carriages, and the group speeded up. It only took two days to meet from Lintong and enter the city now.

In the section from Weinan to Huayin, Duan Xipeng is still trembling, because the chaos in the north is still serious, threatening this official road at any time, and the army of the Xi'an Four Guards has not seen any movement for a long time, which also makes Duan Xipeng full of Xi'an Four Guards. Worry.

   Duan Xipeng didn't feel relieved until he passed Weinan. The road conditions in this section were also good, and from the situation of business travelers on the official road, it could be seen that the rebel army had not yet reached this side.

"It's time to see you off. I must take a good rest tonight." Duan Xipeng stretched his muscles and said with a smile, "Mr. Wang, I will be the host tonight, and we will get drunk together. It can be regarded as sharing weal and woe. The experience is enough for us to look back on for a lifetime.”

Wang Wenyan also laughed, "Don't you dare to disobey? I will go and ask my lord for orders, and it is not easy to reward this group of brothers. Moreover, to achieve such a record, I have overfulfilled the task assigned by my lord." Entrust."

   "Hehe, then we are looking forward to Mr. Wang's kind words." Duan Xipeng said cheerfully: "Brothers are all looking forward to it, licking blood with knife edge, risking life and death, we really should give you a little hope."

  The two were talking, when the carriage behind them opened the curtain, and Xue Baoqin's crisp voice came out: "Mr. Wang, Jiulang, have you arrived in Xi'an?"

   "Madam Hui, we're here. Wengcheng is ahead, and the Changle Gate in the inner city is behind." Wang Wenyan rode his horse out of sight, and said in a deep voice, "Your Excellency should send someone to pick it up."

   It was Qingwen Hepinger and the others who came to pick them up. They were waiting outside the gate of Wengcheng, waiting for the carriage to arrive before the two daughters went forward.

   Baoqin and his party got out of the car, and they inevitably exchanged friendly greetings, and then got back into the car and went straight to the governor's office.

The governor's yamen also followed the pattern of the former yamen and the rear courtyard. This governor's yamen was the former Ming Yongxing Palace, which was far away from the Qin Palace, but the Qin Palace had been abolished decades ago after the establishment of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Because the scale of Yongxing Palace is much smaller, it was left behind instead. Yunguang used this place as the governor's gate before.

  After Yunguang’s crime, the governor of Shaanxi has not been established, and this place has been closed for several years. It was not until Feng Ziying became the governor of Shaanxi that it was reopened and renovated as the governor’s office.

   It's just that Feng Ziying didn't arrive for a long time, so this place was empty until Feng Ziying entered Xi'an City.

The governor's yamen is different from the chief envoy and the inspector. To be precise, it is a temporary institution. The word patrol means that it is temporary and has no permanent subordinate officials. Make the most difference.

  Normal administrative agencies have sub-organizations such as the Experience Department and the Zhaomosuo, but the governor’s office does not. They are usually replaced by the governor’s own personal staff, not court officials.

  Of course, this does not mean that the staff of the governor's office have no power. In a sense, the attitude of these private staff is often more representative of the governor's own intentions.

No matter how small the Yongxing Palace is, it is a palace after all. It is much larger than the house in Yongping Mansion when he was a magistrate. Therefore, as the residence of the back house, it is also much larger, even no less than that in the capital city. General Shenwu's mansion or one of Hulunhou's mansion and Yunchuanbo's mansion.

  Of course, because it has been idle for several years, although it has been roughly tidied up, it still reveals some lack of popularity.

Ping'er and Qingwen arrived for a few days first. During this period of time, they were focused on organizing the layout of the entire house, adding necessary furniture and objects, and also wanted to find some suitable servants to enrich the back house, so as to make this future possible. It is good to take care of the place where I will live here for one or two years and make it a residence where Feng Ziying can feel the warmth of the family when she comes back.

Fortunately, this Yongxing Palace has been occupied by Yunguang for several years. Yunguang himself is an extravagant person who is very particular about food and clothing. , now Qingwen and Hepinger pick it up, that is, the repairs that should be repaired, the additions that should be added, and the cleaning that should be cleaned, after these few days, it looks like the same thing.

So when Xue Baoqin, Miaoyu, and Xiuyan arrived, because Feng Ziying was still dealing with official business in the former mansion, they didn't bother them. A place to live may come.

   I have to say that as the former Ming Palace, this house is quite grand and exquisite, which is pleasing to the eye.

"This is Grandma Qin's courtyard. In fact, it is equivalent to a secondary courtyard. You can arrange little maids and servants outside. Look at the inner courtyard. The main room, wing room and side room are all available..." Ping'er smiled With the introduction.

"The servant wants to show his credit. It took the servant and Qingwen a long time to clean it up. Outsiders also came to clean it before, but it was too rough, so the servant and Qingwen cleaned the courtyards one by one. Carefully cleaned and cleaned, and then filled in some items, but the specific small items depend on the preferences of the grandmas themselves. Fortunately, the city of Xi'an is not too big or small, and grandmas have to fill it up. It is estimated that you should be able to buy everything.”

While observing Xue Baoqin's expression changes, Ping'er threw the topic back to Miaoyu and Xiuyan with a smile: "As for the yard of the two grandmas, there are still a few steps away from the yard of the second grandma Qin. The two courtyards are slightly smaller, but they are close together, and there is a small courtyard inside, where a few goldfish are raised,..."

It's a little smaller, but it's next to each other, just in line with Miaoyu and Xiuyan's wishes. Baoqin's yard is slightly larger, which also suits Baoqin's wishes. Ping'er's arrangement is also based on everyone's thoughts .

Xue Baoqin nodded slightly, and said with a smile: "There is Lao Ping'er, everyone said that you have been with Second Grandma Lian for many years, and even the old ancestors said that you are as fine as a mandarin duck in the Rongguo Mansion, now our Feng family has you and Yuanyang, this mansion can be tightly organized, Yuanyang has not come to Xi'an this time, so it will depend on you and Qingwen."

  Ping'er felt a little relieved, she knew Xue Baoqin's heart, and also felt that Xue Baoqin was not very close to herself and Qingwen, and she was somewhat wary of alienation.

  But I am a little different from Qingwen.

Qingwen belongs to the eldest room, of course it is impossible for Grandma Shen to have much interaction with her in the second room, and Qingwen is also an unforgiving and impatient person, neither Baochai nor Baoqin sisters have a good impression of her. Even Siqi, who grew up with Qingwen, would quarrel with her from time to time.

  I am a foreigner with no roots and roots. This not only allows me to be independent from the three houses, so that I will not be hostile by several parties, but also because I have no foothold, I cannot get the direct support of other people.

  Even if Daiyu, Baochai, Xiuyan, and Yingchun have a good impression of themselves, but after all, they are not in their room, so it is impossible for them to support and welcome themselves without reservation.

Although Yuanyang seems to be in the mansion like a fish in water, Ping'er knows that Yuanyang is actually in the same situation as her own. They are all getting along very well, that's why they are in today's situation, but as time goes by, when various conflicts arise, she will gradually feel the changes in her situation, especially since she is not just a simple maid, but also the woman of the master. Under such circumstances, she will gradually become as unpopular as Jin Chuan'er, or even worse.

  Ping'er also expected this a long time ago, but every family has scriptures that are hard to recite, and staying with the second grandmother is also troublesome. Does entering Feng's mansion mean the world is peaceful? impossible.

  So Ping'er's mentality is also very correct. When soldiers come to cover the water and soil, and stand upright, she will not be afraid of anyone who will provoke her. If she really wants to rely on her status to bully others, she will not shrink back.

Of course, she will not intentionally target anyone, or like a hedgehog, whoever teases will fight back. She is not that kind of temperament, she just wants to do what the master ordered, and get along with everyone in harmony. After all, why are women suffering? Women are not easy.

Baoqin walked around the yard, and then went into the house to have a look. It was indeed cleaned very carefully, and some added items were also very satisfactory. Of course, the specific personal items can only be bought by Lingguan. After all, Ping'er is just the big servant girl in the mansion. Seeing the master's mind, he intends to train her to be a mandarin duck's assistant, so she naturally won't go too far.

  When Baoqin and Baochai were together when they left Beijing, they asked, what kind of identity is this Pinger?

  Wang Xifeng's personal servant girl, who has been married to Jia's family for a few years, is supposed to be Jia Lian's housekeeper, but she is still perfect. Is this Jia Lian's Liu Xiahui, or is it that Wang Xifeng is so powerful? Why did you fall in love with me again? It's really coming.

Although she is very disdainful in her heart, she will not show it. Wang Xifeng and Baochai are still cousins, and Ping'er has a very good relationship in the mansion. Necessary antipathy.

"Let's go, let's go to Sister Miaoyu and Xiuyan to have a look. Ping'er is so dedicated, I think we will enjoy happiness in the next year or two." Baoqin turned around, Shanshan When he came out, he showed his face and smiled: "This house is not a trivial matter. The husband is busy with business during the day, and when he comes back, he must have a comfortable and peaceful place to rest. All families must remember it."
