The newly built kiln was very big, so she walked around in a big circle before returning to Zheng Junzi's home.

It's also in the family building, but it's better than the others. It looks like a two-story villa, built with reference to the courtyard built in Miaozhou before.

Zheng Junzi's family also bought a house on Qingshui Road, but he didn't have to worry about keeping an eye on the kiln in person and had no time to live there.

After entering, Mrs. Zheng and her mother-in-law were still busy cooking. There were many gifts on the floor. The guests just now also left quietly.

"Mrs. Zheng, I'm here to worry about you again."

"Second Miss, you are a noble person that we can't even invite. Hurry up and get on the kang. I've already asked people to heat the kang."

"Okay." Xia Chan went in gracefully.

There were also piles of gift boxes and other things in the room. She smiled understandingly and said nothing.

Zheng Junzi was a little embarrassed: "Second Miss, these things were sent by the people nearby."

"It's okay." She picked up the bag and said, "It's the Chinese New Year. It's normal. I also brought some things. I almost forgot about them. I'll go get them from the carriage."

"Second Miss, you can't do it, you can't do it."

"I brought them all. It's for the New Year. It's not something expensive. It's just for good luck."

She quickly went out to the carriage to get it, and just as the servants of the Zheng family drove her in the carriage, she took her to the horse stall next to the wall to graze. As soon as she went out, she opened the curtain and took down a basket.

There are some pastries and candies inside.

When I carried it in, I heard Zheng Junzi whispering to Mrs. Zheng: "Look what you did. You put the things here even though you knew Princess Xia was coming. How will you make her miss us?"

Mrs. Zheng felt very aggrieved: "It wouldn't even fit in the warehouse. They are just ordinary things. I thought they were nothing."

"Seriously, don't you know what kind of person Princess Xia is? She is very honest. She doesn't like this thing the most. Why don't you take it away quickly?"

Xia Chan cleared her throat and pretended to cough. The room immediately became quiet. Then the curtain opened and Mrs. Zheng came out with a smile on her face: "Second Miss, I've made tea, please try it quickly."

"Okay, Mrs. Zheng, I brought some pastries and candies. You can try them too."

"That's a blessing. Thank you so much, Miss Second, for thinking of us every time you come here."

Xia Chan went in and found that everything she had just put on the ground was gone, but she pretended not to know.

I just asked Zheng Junzi about how the manpower preparations were going into production at the beginning of the year.

Zheng Junzi patted his chest and said: "Second Miss, don't worry. I have been preparing for this before this year. As you said, I posted a job recruiting craftsman apprentices outside. Many people want to come. Wait."

After fifteen, many people will come."

"That's good. Do you want me to ask someone to help you settle these things?"

"No, no, the place to live is already built, isn't it? The food is also in the canteen. When there are more people, just move the time."

"Well, okay."

She won't be too meticulous. Anyway, there are also staff from the state capital here. If anything happens, they will report it to her as soon as possible.

I hope Zheng Junzi can slowly become a good manager. After so long, he has to have some structure and methods.

Mrs. Zheng and the cook prepared a table of delicious food and greeted them warmly.

She happily ate with them, then said goodbye and went back.

Mrs. Zheng prepared many gifts for her, but she shook her head and only took one or two.

If it wasn't already cooked and it was Chinese New Year, she wouldn't take other people's things at will.

But when I came back, I still felt a little disappointed, as if something was slowly changing.

The weather changes, and so do many people.

Ha, that's normal.

He shook his head and laughed, waving his whip and returned to the state capital.

In the twelfth lunar month of winter, it was very bad with continuous snowstorms. Now at the beginning of the new year, the weather is good every day, the sun is shining, the blue sky is clear and cloudless, and I can feel that it is getting warmer day by day.

I hope this year will be a good year, with smoother weather, so that she can accomplish her goals, and that the people of Zhongzhou can live a happy life.

When we arrived at the state capital, we did not go home directly, but went to Zhongzhou Inn.

Shi Wenjing has been avoiding Zhang Hanxue. Since Zhang Hanxue bought a house in Qingshui Road to live temporarily, he stayed away from Qingshui Road. For the time being, there was no place he liked in Zhongzhou, so he had to live in a wine shop.

And she knew that people from the Shi family had reserved a courtyard of the Zhongzhou Inn, and there was no need for the inn's people to clean it. There were people guarding it every day, and ordinary people couldn't come in or out at will.

Then Mr. Shi is inside.

But there was no publicity at all. She asked people to inquire, but Mr. Shi did not go to see Mr. Zhang. Everyone was pretending to be deaf and dumb.

When Yang saw her, she quickly adjusted her clothes and came out with a smile on her face: "Princess Xia, why are you here."

"I came here to find someone. I have something to do. Where is the small courtyard rented by the Shi family?"

"Zhichunju, but the people there are weird. If you want to go there, you have to say hello to them in advance and get permission before you can go in."

"Okay, I understand, it's okay, I'll go there now."

This inn can be considered to be built by her. She knows the spring, summer, autumn and winter courtyards inside very well. As soon as she enters, walk to the left. Zhichunju is not the biggest, but it is the most carefully built. The courtyards inside are all hers.

Designed by my uncle himself.

After going in, there were two servants of the historian standing there outside the door.

"I am Xia Chan. I would like to see your master. Can you please let me know?"

Upon hearing her resounding name, the gatekeeper didn't dare to delay and immediately went in to report her.

After a while, a chubby older man came out. He was very particular about it. It was dark gray fine cloud brocade with exquisite blue clouds, pines and cranes embroidered on it. His facial features were quite similar to Shi Wenjing's.

"Master Shi." Xia Chan greeted with a clear smile.

The old man laughed when he heard this: "Princess Xia, I have heard about Princess Xia's reputation for a long time. It is really an honor and an honor to meet her today."

"Master Shi is so polite. If there hadn't been a lot of things recently, I would have come to visit Master Shi earlier. Master Shi has been in Zhongzhou for many days. I wonder what Master Shi has gained?"

"The harvest is huge. Princess Xia, please come in quickly."

"Okay, please."

Once inside, the reception area is much more luxurious, and the floor is covered with elegant blankets. Some of the items used are very expensive, including the foot table, which is made of carved rosewood and is not from an inn.

The hem of her skirt was very dirty, and Mr. Shi also saw it, but her confidence, her brilliance, and her elegance covered up these inconspicuous flaws.
