Chapter 296 Cangyuan Inn
From the capital to Yangzhou, it actually takes eight or nine days on the road, whether it is far or near.

The road that Xue Shu walked this time was planned in advance by the Hou Mansion. The scenery along the way was beautiful, and the road was smooth and smooth, with almost no bumps.

Once the road was cleared, everyone's walking speed would naturally be much faster. On the afternoon of the seventh day, a group of people entered Yangzhou City in the golden afterglow.

As soon as the city gate was opened, someone immediately came to meet him.

The man looked to be about 30 or [-] years old, with a thin body and no flesh on his face, with high cheekbones and a goatee. He was wearing a robe embroidered with patterns of copper coins. It is a very typical image of a profiteer, which perfectly fits the image of a profiteer described in many story books that Xue Shu has read in the past.

Xue Shu was curious for a while, so she took a second look.

The man noticed Xue Shu's gaze, and turned to look at her: "The villain Qian En, I have seen the girl."

Different from the very cunning image, Qian En spoke in a straight-forward manner without a trace of glibness, and his eyes were calm and composed, like an out-and-out gentleman.

Lu Yingche who was on the side turned his head to look over, and said, "Shu'er, you must be tired from the journey, the treasurer Qian has already prepared a place to stay, why don't we go over there as soon as possible to see if there is anything that doesn't suit you? , and it’s convenient to change.”

During this journey, Lu Yingche himself was exhausted, let alone his little cousin with delicate skin and tender flesh.

Even if the little cousin didn't say anything, it probably wouldn't feel good.

Before leaving, Mrs. Zhenbei Hou specially told him to be smarter, so why don't he put himself in Xue Shu's shoes and think about it.

Xue Shu nodded and said "Thank you".

Qian En cupped his hands and bowed to Xue Shu before walking in the front and leading the way for everyone.

Horses are also not allowed to run wild in Yangzhou city.

Although it is not as strict as the capital city, Qian En can't ride a horse, and now he is leading the way for his master. It is not easy for him to sit in a carriage, so... he can only leave.

Xue Shu kept poking her head, looking at the crowd and scenery on the street, her eyes were bright and unusual.

Qingyu and Hongling huddled beside the other window, and they also opened the curtain to look out.

I have long heard that Yangzhou is prosperous, and the books boast it like something, but seeing it with my own eyes, I feel...

It seems to be no different from Beijing.

For a while, the three little girls in the carriage were a little bit downcast.

Qian En, who had been walking in front, seemed to have eyes on the back of his head. Even if he didn't look back, he seemed to know what Xue Shu was thinking.

So Qian En smiled and said: "In terms of prosperity, where in the world can it compare to the feet of the emperor. What's more, the bustling place in Yangzhou is not in this city. There is a girl under my subordinates. It's clever, she knows very well what fun is going on inside and outside of Yangzhou, and in the past two days, let that girl take the girl for a walk around the city——

Don't worry, the third son, although that person has a bit of a temper, he is a confidant I have cultivated for many years, and he is absolutely reliable. "

So Lu Yingche also nodded, and said: "Shu'er, I think Mr. Jing will be here five or six days before coming to your family. These few days, let's have fun with that girl."

Before Jing Xing came, hurry up and have a good time, otherwise when he came, Xue Shu would not be called to many places no matter what.

"Okay."

Xue Shu nodded.

Now that they're all here, it's natural to choose the most bustling and bustling place here to play around.

*
Qian En led them to turn left and right, walked into an alley and then came out, all the bustling noises were left behind, and what caught the eye was the simple and simple walls and green everywhere.

"This place is called Cangyuan Inn. The inns are all independent courtyards. They are the most spacious and comfortable in Yangzhou City. Many wealthy businessmen or officials from other places will choose this place as their temporary residence." Qian En said while walking. He introduced, "I have already arranged everything. The courtyards of the third son and the girl are adjacent to each other. They are located at the innermost part of the inn, and the place is quiet."

Inside the car, the three little girls looked at each other.

Yangzhou is so prosperous, it can be regarded as a place where every inch of land is expensive. This inn is quiet amidst the hustle and bustle, and what is even more rare is that this inn is actually composed of independent courtyards?
How much space does this take up?
Perhaps Xue Shu's knowledge is lacking, at least in the capital, she has never seen any inn like this.

It's really a big deal.

Not to mention Xue Shu, even Lu Yingche raised his eyebrows in surprise: "Who is the owner behind this inn?"

"It's the Yang family." In the entire Yangzhou City, except for the Yang family, there is no one who can have such a big hand.

No one was surprised by Lu Yingche's answer.

That's right, the Yang family doesn't even pay attention to the local government. To build such an inn, others dare not even think about it, but to the Yang family, it may not be a big deal.

While lamenting the wealth of the Yang family in their hearts, everyone followed Qian En into the gate of the inn.

As soon as you enter the inn, it seems that even the air around you has become fresh. The air is filled with the unique fragrance of green plants, occasionally mixed with a few crisp and melodious birdsong, as if you are in a mountain forest.

Who would have imagined that as long as you pass through an alley, you will find a bustling city outside.

After walking for a while, Qian En, who was at the front, stopped. Lu Yingche tapped twice on the wall of the carriage, and conveniently rolled over and got off the horse.

In front of you are two courtyard gates.

As Qian En said, there are indeed independent courtyards here.

There is even a plaque on the courtyard gate.

After Qian En bowed his hands to the two of them, he took a step back and stood aside.

"Shu'er, which one do you want?" Lu Yingche didn't rush in, and stood with his hands in his hands, letting Xue Shu choose first.

Even if he was born in the Marquis Mansion, it is not always as rich and noble as outsiders see.

The other family doesn't know, anyway, a young man from Zhenbeihou's mansion is called a father who doesn't love him, and a mother who doesn't love him.

Lu Yingche was a little bit more miserable than others, and there was a second elder brother who was always aggressive, and he couldn't beat him. It can be said that he had gone through countless difficulties and obstacles before he finally grew up.

He grew up like this, of course he can live anywhere.

It's good to live in some.

Xue Shu said "Well", looked left and right at the two courtyards, and finally chose the one on the right.

There are more flowers, and she has nothing to do in her free time, so she can enjoy the flowers to relieve her boredom.

Lu Yingche nodded, and then walked into the courtyard Xue Shu had chosen.

This is the first time I've come to this place, no matter how reliable Qian En is, it's not as reassuring as checking it out myself.

Lu Yingche walked around inside several times, checked all the places where people could hide, and after making sure there was nothing wrong, he walked out and said, "Go."

Xue Shu heard the words, and took Qingyu and Hongling in to have a look around, and when she came out again, she was determined to stay here.

 Three more today~
