Lin Hua thanked Chun Hong, she was in too much of a hurry.
Jin Xiaolou traveled a thousand miles and passed ten thousand tons of water. By the time the carriage had arrived at the outskirts of the capital, three months had already passed.
A drizzle fell, the plum trees trembled, and Jin Xiaolou lifted the curtain to the carriage to look outside.
The towering walls were right in front of them. They looked like a row of giant men clad in steel armor, holding long swords in their hands. They stood proudly, unshakable despite the storms of thousands of years.
The capital was at least three times larger than Xin Ning, and the city walls were also more than twice as tall as the Xin Ning.
Looking into the distance, he felt like he was about to enter a bottomless pit.
Along the way, for the past three months, Jin Xiaolou had nothing to do while sitting in the horse carriage all day.
Fortunately, Jin Xiaolou was used to reciting books in the past, especially before exams started, he could recite an entire book in two nights.
However, a good memory is inferior to a rotten pen, I probably forgot it just by memorizing it in my mind. It was neatly written on a piece of paper and also had a cover.
There were only a few prescriptions in the book, but they were all very effective.
When they first got on the carriage, Lin'er was not used to the continuous bumpiness, he vomited until his face was pale, and was unable to eat anything. It was thanks to Jin Xiaolou taking the prescription to cure her dizziness, and gathering herbs to simmer and feed it to Lin'er to drink, not only did Lin'er not lose weight, he had even gained a lot of weight in the past few months.
"Mother …" "Kiss …"
Behind him, a sweet and sweet voice came out, a little hand pulling at the corner of Jin Xiaolou's clothes.
Lin'er was wise a long time ago, and in the last ten months or so, he had already started speaking simple words.
The ones who talked the most were "mother", "aunt", "uncle" and "dinner".
Sure enough, in the next moment, Lin'er pouted. He burrowed into Jin Xiaolou's embrace and muttered, "Rice …"
What a snack bag.
Jin Xiaolou pulled the Lin'er into her arms, "If you keep on getting fatter, mother won't be able to carry you!"
"Mother …" Don't hug... "Uncle, uncle will carry you."
Lin'er smiled, revealing a row of cute teeth.
Lv Yun also laughed as well, tugging at Lin'er's pouting cheeks, she said to him: "Lin'er be good, we're almost at the capital, wait till we reach the capital, there's countless delicious things waiting for us! We must persevere! "
Lv Yun's eyes flashed as she asked Jin Xiaolou: "Shopkeeper, where are we going to live in the capital?"
Jin Xiaolou had also thought about this problem. Back then, in order to buy Qiu Yue, Jin Xiaolou had spent almost all of her silver.
He had to think of a way to get a foothold in the capital.
"Before Jin Xiaolou even replied, outside the carriage, Chang An's ears were sharp. Hearing Lv Yun's words, she answered first:" Don't worry Miss Lv Yun, I have already arranged a manor for all of you, right by the west side of the city.
Lv Yun was so shocked that her mouth gaped wide open. Lin'er burrowed his head into Jin Xiaolou's neck and muttered, "Aunt … Eat Lin'er... "
"Hahaha." Jin Xiaolou laughed heartily and poked Lv Yun, "Hurry up and put away your big mouth, you have scared Lin'er."
Only then did Lv Yun quickly shut her mouth, and she was a little perturbed, "Just where did that Young Master Gao come from? Why, why are you so generous?"
Lv Yun was naturally not clear about Gao Lang's identity, but she knew that among the rich and powerful people in the capital, those who had a manor in the west of the city was naturally not just any ordinary commoner.
Jin Xiaolou had long thought that Lv Yun was one of them, so when she asked, she did not hide anything and told him the truth about Gao Lang's identity.
Now, Lv Yun's mouth was big enough to swallow Jin Xiaolou's head.
The Great Zhou had its own rules. After the crown prince ascended to the throne, the other princes would then receive the title of nobility, be rewarded with a mansion, and leave the palace to live in a different place.
With the current Emperor present, the princes and princes would naturally live in the palace. Gao Lang's manor should have been bought privately by him.
After the prince had grown up, he would often secretly buy lodging in the manor, which was not too much of a problem.
Gao Lang bought this manor in the name of his teacher, Tutor Zhong. Because Gao Lang had always been acting dumb, this manor was also idle, with a name of "Rainbow Garden", it received a few servants to watch over it.
When they arrived at the Rainbow Garden door, it was already past noon. Everyone in the carriage was so hungry that their stomachs were growling.
Lv Yun was the first to jump out of the carriage. As she helped Jin Xiaolou off the carriage, she couldn't help but peek at the Rainbow Garden.
In front of him was a small and exquisite door. In front of the door, there was a pair of stone lions squatting on both sides of the door. They were exquisitely sculpted and looked as if they were alive.
A woman wearing a purple gown was standing in front of the door.
The woman's appearance was elegant and cold, his temperament transcendent. Looking at hishee did not seem like an ordinary Little Maid, but when he saw Chang An, she immediately raised his eyebrows and laughed.
Her originally cold face was now filled with a smile that made her look like a fairy who had been blown away by the wind. She was quite breathtaking.
"I flew back a long time ago and reported that you haven't appeared even after the end of this year." The woman smiled as she glanced at him, "These past few years, not only have you not improved in any way, I can see that your ability to ride a horse has greatly decreased."
Chang An scratched his head and laughed: "Good, little Nan Yang, you're so busy making fun of me that you even teased me. If you're so capable, why don't we go to the forest and run around for a bit, and make you call me big brother!"
After he finished speaking, Chang An hurriedly turned his head to welcome Jin Xiaolou and walked forward: "This Nan Yang followed Seventh Elder since young, and now has Rainbow Garden s care. Lady Xiaolou, you can look for her whenever you need anything."
Jin Xiaolou nodded and greeted Nan Yang politely: "Hello, Miss Nan Yang."
Chang An waved his hand: "Don't be so courteous to her, she is a difficult person to deal with.
However, Nan Yang acted as if she did not see the two live people in front of him, she only turned towards Chang An: "Alright, you can bully me like this, when I return, I will report you!"
With that, he walked into the garden.
Chang An smiled embarrassedly: "Don't mind me, Miss. She is like this, being played like this by Seventh Elder, but he is also a pitiful child. His heart is very good."
Jin Xiaolou chuckled. "I don't mind."
Then, he reached into his bag and took out a small box, handing it to Chang An: "Hurry and send this Wuli Herba to the palace."
This was an important matter for him to rush to the capital. After three months had passed, he had no idea how the emperor's illness was faring. He only hoped that there was still a chance to treat it.
Chang An took the box, he naturally knew that the matter was important, and did not even eat anymore. He nodded his head and went back to his horse, and only spoke to the group of Little Maid s standing in front of the door: "Take good care of Lady Xiaolou, if Miss has any unhappiness, I will leave it to you guys to ask!"
"Yes sir!" The servants all bent down to bow, Chang An raised his whip and left.
"What kindness!" "I think she looks down on us, storekeeper. Since you didn't even look at her, she didn't even turn towards us from the corner of her eyes!" Lv Yun was so angry that she could not take it anymore.
Jin Xiaolou hurriedly consoled her, "That's why I have to have the ability to stand up for myself in the end. Lv Yun, after lunch and some rest, you can go outside and ask about the price of the store in the capital. "
"En!" Lv Yun nodded her head, "If shopkeeper is capable, you must be able to do better in the capital since your Xin Ning are so popular! "After all, the capital is crowded with many people, and there are even more rich people!"
The two of them smiled and followed the maidservant into the garden.
As soon as he entered the garden, he saw fake mountains and winding paths, pavilions and pavilions, trees and pear rain, bamboo shadows swaying in the breeze. It was a pleasant scene.
The person who had set up the garden had also thought about it. With each step he took, he would be able to relax and relax.
A maidservant named Wen Mei led them westward, through the entrance of the cave, around a pool of spring water, and towards the lotus root of the northern side of the pond.
There was a mica screen in front of the entrance to the Lotus Fragrance Pavilion. Behind the screen was a table for the Eight Immortals. From the looks of it, it should be a place for a meal.
The room's windows were much larger than normal. If one were to look through the window, they would be able to see a pool of dried up lotus.
If it was summer, the scenery would be extraordinary.
Jin Xiaolou carried Lin'er, and just as she and Lv Yun sat down, a servant came up to pour some tea.
Lv Yun's heart was straightforward, she caressed her stomach and rushed to the servant who served the tea: "Let's have some food first, we are all extremely hungry."
The servant did not reply to Lv Yun's words. She glanced at Lv Yun, then poured the tea out the door and brought the teapot out.
"What does that mean?" Lv Yun was so angry that her face immediately turned red.
When the Little Maid was halfway there, she turned around and said, "Didn't you say that you don't want to drink tea? Then I will leave. Don't get in my way."
With that, he left.
Lv Yun looked up to see Wen Mei standing beside him.
Wen Mei lowered her eyes, slightly bowed, and respectfully replied: "Little Maid has no rules, don't take this to heart Miss. May I invite young lady to take a look at the scenery of the garden? If you are seated, please wait for a moment; you may eat from time to time. "
Just this wait was enough time for an incense stick to burn.
Seeing that Lin'er's face was wrinkled from hunger, Jin Xiaolou could not stay any longer. She stood up and asked Wen Mei politely, "Miss Wen Mei, how much longer do we have to wait? With the sun and the sun setting in the west, we should be able to eat dinner soon. "
"Exactly." Wen Mei remained respectful on the surface, "Young miss will wait until dinner time."
Then, he said slowly, "We have a rule in the garden: you don't eat until the evening. Since you've missed your lunch, even if you're hungry or passed out, you still have to wait for dinner."
Lin'er in his arms could not take it anymore and started crying.
Jin Xiaolou patted Lin'er and pulled back Lv Yun who was about to argue with him, "Let's go."
"Innkeeper!" They were going too far! We are high... No matter what, the one invited by the Seventh Elder is still a guest. Lv Yun was angered to the point of wanting to call Gao Lang by his full name, but when she thought of his identity, her tongue started to straighten.
Jin Xiaolou did not want to argue with them, so she carried Lin'er and walked out.
Lv Yun glared at Wen Mei and followed along.
Just as Jin Xiaolou was about to leave, a voice came from behind: "Stop!"
Jin Xiaolou turned her head and saw that the person speaking was Nan Yang.
"Where are you going?" Nan Yang walked in front of Jin Xiaolou and raised her head slightly, almost noses facing the two of them.
