"Red Xiao, have you prepared all the gifts you were asked to prepare?" Du Qiaoyun asked, looking up at the door in front of him.
This is Shangshu mansion. There are many Shangshu mansions in the capital, but people always add surnames before calling them. Only this Shangshu mansion is directly called Shangshu mansion. They can also afford it. After all, not every family can produce five ministers in succession.
After several generations, the Li family has produced five official books!
It's not so profound. During the reign of the former Emperor, he even wanted to be promoted to the Prime Minister of Hubu, saying that he didn't want the name of Li family to end in his hands.
At one time, it was said that other people made the Li family humble, but Du Qiaoyun saw something else from it. The one who declined the position of Zaifu was probably not humble, but had something else to do with it. However, these things had nothing to do with Du Qiaoyun, and she didn't have the heart to explore the court.
She didn't come here to follow the Li family. Instead, she went to Beijing first. Xie Zhifeng wanted to follow the army behind her. When Marshal Zhao saw that she was alone, he kindly let her live in his wife's family, Li Shangshu's house.
Although Du Qiaoyun and Mrs. Zhao can't say that their hatred is as deep as the sea, their gratitude and resentment are absolutely not small. How can she live in her mother's home? Even if the Li family didn't kill her, I'm afraid they wouldn't treat her very well. Instead of living under the fence of the Zhao family and looking at people, it's better for her to find a place to live by herself.
But if she didn't have a good place to go, instead of living in the noble Shangshu mansion, she would live in an inn or a post house outside. Even if she hit Shangshu mansion in the face, she would ask her to come and borrow Marshal Zhao.
It's one thing for people in Shangshu mansion to welcome her or not. It's another thing whether she can go or not. The other party can't look down on her, but she can't look down on her in the face. Otherwise, it will offend most of the civil servants' residences in the capital. Li's mansion is the home of many officials. This hidden network can't be underestimated.
In fact, if Du Qiaoyun has nothing else to do, he can only be her general's wife. If the civil servants offend, they will offend. After all, civil and military feuds are not going on for a day or two. For example, marshal Zhao can marry a daughter of the Shangshu mansion, or he uses his military exploits to ask the emperor to marry him. If he dares to send someone directly to the Shangshu mansion to propose marriage, he must be beaten by the people of the Shangshu mansion.
It's not really her business to be at odds with civil and military affairs. It's a big deal that she'll only get along with xungui's family members in the future. But Du Qiaoyun also wants to copy the model of women's guild hall to the capital to earn money, so if she doesn't offend others, she won't offend others.
Don't want to offend people, and don't want to live in the Li family, at first Du Qiaoyun is also very distressed about it.
Fortunately, she is not without relatives in the capital. Sun Nindong, the daughter of her cheap master, has a large medical school in the capital. Although she has not learned skills from sun Nindong for several days, she can be regarded as a disciple of the first medical school. During the period when sun Nindong lived in her home, they got along with each other. In addition, she was not willing to give up the medical school easily As a disciple, I have a close relationship with sun. Not only do I send some local products to each other from time to time through the post station, but also I copied a number of medical classics from the Zhao family and sent them to sun. Many of them are lost copies. They are very precious, which makes her feel good for sun.
So this time, when she learned that marshal Zhao had asked her to live in Mrs. Zhao's mother's home before going to Beijing, she contacted sun Nindong in advance. Sun Nindong also welcomed her to live in yishengmen, which was a big problem for Du Qiaoyun.
Although I didn't plan to live in the Li family, I still had to pay a visit first and make it clear to the other party so as not to offend others.
