When they returned to Liuxiang Pavilion, Qier was still looking around, not knowing what she was looking at. Qiao Xianyong looked at her appearance and found it funny, and said, "Qier, I didn't expect you to be so timid! You are afraid of the dark.
Or are you afraid of ghosts?"
Qier still looked uneasy, and while waiting for Qiao Xianyong to change, she said, "Master, this Zhuangzi makes me feel uncomfortable all over. I don't know where I feel weird. Master, please don't mess around in the house at night from now on."
Turn around, it’s really scary! In my opinion, don’t go wandering around the city tomorrow. My eyelids are twitching so much, I always feel like something is going to happen.”
Qiao Xianyong never thought it was funny and said, "Qier, if you are scared at night, why will you be scared tomorrow in broad daylight? I am here, and there is also this local snake Butler Yan, so don't think too much and rest early. You will have enough for tomorrow.
Let’s go out for a walk.”
Qier's face hadn't fully recovered yet, and she returned to the outhouse to tidy up and wash herself timidly. Qiao Xianyong was lying on the bed, but he couldn't figure it out. There were obviously some secrets in this courtyard. What was hidden behind the little red door?
What? He couldn't restrain his curiosity for a moment, so he wanted to get up and go explore again. Then he thought, this is his own village, so don't go blindly to visit, the provincial mother is still worried about him. If you have anything, I will tell you tomorrow.
That's Butler Yan.
In fact, Qiao Xianyong wanted to sit in the teahouse in Anyang City not to play and join in the fun, but because after leaving the Baisha Escort Agency, he vaguely felt like he had been put into a huge cage, and he knew nothing about the outside world.
I don't know. Although he was able to reunite with his mother, he was very concerned about the news about his master and senior sister. Sometimes he even thought of Chu Hongjing, Xiao Morou and others he knew in the past. He didn't know what had happened now. This Anyang
The city is also one of the top ten names in the Central Plains, and there is a constant flow of people. I want to find the largest tea house and sit there for half a day. Anyway, I can find out some of the latest news in the world.
Finally able to sleep on a soft bed after a bumpy road, Qiao Xianyong slept until dawn, until Qier couldn't help but wake him up, saying that it was getting late, and asked him to get up to accompany Qiao and Huanxiang.
Have breakfast together.
Unsurprisingly, Mrs. Zhang followed Qiao Xianyong and Huanxiang all the way to Langyue Pavilion where Qiao and Huanxiang were resting. Qiao Xianyong had just sat down, and before she could pick up her chopsticks, Mrs. Qiao
He opened his mouth and said, "Yong'er, did you get used to sleeping last night? If you're feeling bored today, I'll ask Butler Yan to accompany you out for a walk."
Qiao Xianyong was surprised that Mrs. Qiao understood his thoughts. Just as he was about to reply, he heard Mrs. Qiao say again, "Give Huanxiang a holiday today. You don't have to accompany me, an old woman, in this house. Let her go and have fun with you."
Er. Qi'er is a little girl who is new to the world and can't take good care of her. It's okay to let her serve you two brothers and sisters outside, but you still need to take Mrs. Zhang with her and she'll serve you thoughtfully, so I can rest assured."
When Qiao Xianyong heard this, he knew that Granny Zhang must have come to tell the secret at some time. He couldn't help but look at Granny Zhang with disgust, and saw that the old woman's eyebrows were full of pride. But he could not disobey his mother's wishes, so he nodded.
nod.
Huanxiang was sitting aside but was very excited. She didn't take a few bites of the meal, but kept talking, "Brother, where should we go? Do you like wine or tea? Do you like to eat local Anjiang food or foreign food?"
?Do you like watching sideshows? By the way, let's go to the teahouse in the center of the city. The De'anjiang cuisine there is authentic, and the windows on the second floor are big. You can clearly see what's going on in the market outside. What did we see?
Just buy the fun things for your mother to see, or take them to the capital to play with. Big brother, big brother, why are you laughing and why are you not talking?"
Qiao Xianyong laughed in his heart and said lightly, "Sister Huanxiang, this is my first time coming to Anjiang City. I can go wherever you want."
Butler Yan also joined in the fun and said, "Miss Huanxiang is right. Lao Yan knows the restaurant that the lady mentioned and will send someone to make arrangements now."
Qiao Xianyong waved his hand and interrupted, "Manager Yan, thank you for your kindness. But we go out to play just to watch the excitement. With your arrangement, the waiters and shopkeepers in the teahouse will know that they are from our family. If they
If there is any taboo, wouldn’t we lose a lot of fun? In my opinion, we can just go there directly after breakfast. Sister Huanxiang, I don’t know if that place is far away. If you don’t mind it being far away, we’ll be fine anyway.
How about walking slowly over and taking in the sights of the city along the way?"
Huanxiang nodded repeatedly, but seemed unsure about the distance and looked up at Butler Yan.
Butler Yan said with a smile, "This teahouse, Lan Xiangyuan, is actually not far from our house. It's only a stick of incense away. According to Lao Yan, it's better to ask the servants in the house to carry a two-person sedan, and then
Another horse is led at a distance behind. If the young master and the young lady are tired of walking or tired of looking at the scenery, how about riding in a sedan chair?"
When Mrs. Qiao heard that the arrangement was appropriate, she couldn't help but smile and said, "Butler Yan was thoughtful. Lao Yan, then I will leave our young lady to you. You have to serve me properly."
Because everyone was thinking about going out for fun, they ate breakfast in a hurry. Just because they had to accompany Mrs. Qiao, although everyone was still sitting on their chairs, they were already restless. Mrs. Qiao could see clearly and slowly put down his spoon.
He smiled and said, "You look like birds in a cage, eager to fly out. I don't want you to accompany me anymore. Go change clothes quickly, freshen up, and then go out to play."
Half an hour later, Qiao Xianyong, Huanxiang, several maids, servants, and Butler Yan gathered at the entrance of the mansion. When Huanxiang saw the crowd, he glared and said, "Butler Yan, you
Me, my eldest brother and Huanxiang, the four of us are together. There are so many other servants, you ask them to follow us at a distance, and don’t stay too close, otherwise others will see us and think what we are doing with a dozen of us going out.
.”
Butler Yan was about to agree with a smile when Granny Zhang said abruptly, "Miss, you have forgotten that the wife wants me to follow you and the young master and be careful. We'd better listen to the wife."
Qiao Xianyong was annoyed with Granny Zhang for speaking to Huanxiang so rudely. Just as he was about to scold him, he saw anger welling up in Huanxiang's brows, but it passed quickly and he said lightly, "Then it's up to you, you and the four of us
Together, but it would be better for you to say less."
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Zhang lowered her hands and approached Housekeeper Yan, with a proud look on her face.
After the discussion was complete, these people, led by Butler Yan, walked towards Lan Xiangyuan, the first-class teahouse that everyone had agreed on.
