Chapter 98 Hancheng (seeking subscription please monthly ticket)
The little maids she saw on TV before were all wearing buns and long gowns, the most classic ones were those in the Dream of the Red Chamber.

I don't know if they are all imitating, and other film and television dramas are not bad.

There is also one thing in common, many of them are prettier than Miss, and they are also thin-skinned and tender-skinned anyway.

It's not like the one in front of me, it looks no different from the orchid girl, her face is also dark and rough, at most it is more fleshy than the two of them, it can be seen that life is better, the facial features are not as exquisite as the orchid.

When she was watching TV before, she asked her old lady why some maids were prettier than Miss Qianjin. Was it the character she was looking for on TV?
How did her wife answer?

The old lady said: This is how it is closer to the real history of ancient times. This young lady is from a good background, not to say that she must be beautiful, even if a rich and powerful person can marry a beautiful wife, but she may not be good-looking. Moreover, the daughters born follow their fathers, so it is normal for them to grow up poorly.

But the maids are different, they are all bought outside, you can choose carefully before buying, how can you choose beautiful ones among so many people, besides, it costs money, of course you pick beautiful ones.

Combining these, thinking about Xiaojuan's arrogant attitude just now, she should not be a maid from a small family, otherwise it would be impossible to develop that kind of disrespectful temperament.

But if it's a rich family, choose a maid with this kind of appearance, or the lady she serves is even more ugly. In order to avoid being compared, she chooses this kind of girl with small eyes, flat nose and dark and rough skin to set off herself.

Either the head wife of this family is jealous, afraid that the beautiful maids will be admired by her men, so she specially buys this kind of unremarkable maids.

In fact, this kind of situation should be rare. Qingyan heard from her father that when rich people look for servants and nannies, they usually look for good-looking ones, because their children spend time with good-looking people It will look better as it grows.

It is said that people's facial features can be imitated, and children will look more and more like the people who raised them.

Therefore, there are many couples who have been together for a long time, and they will look more and more alike. This is the origin of the legendary couple's face.

Qingyan walked back with Lan Hua and Da Ya, thinking wildly, but this time she focused on the road to save herself from being bumped into again.

Fortunately, Lan Hua and Da Ya were behind her just now, otherwise, if the reckless girl bumped into them, these two small bodies would not be able to support them, and they might have to fall to the ground, hurting their arms and legs.

The location of the garrison mansion is on the west side of Hancheng, on a street from the Yamen where they settled down before, but one is on the street and the other is at the end of the street.

The courtyards here are very large, and they are all rich and powerful families. They should be officials in the city or those rich and powerful people who live here. It is next to the garrison mansion, so it must be more secure.

The small courtyard that Li Hao bought for Qingyan was near the center of the city, and it belonged to the east of the city. There were merchants living there, and a street full of shops.

In the south of the city is a big market, which sells agricultural products such as grain and vegetables, and there is also a mule and horse market.

The civilian area where they bought a house was in the north of the city.

The division of Hancheng is also very interesting. These two days they lived in her small courtyard, so they visited the east of the city, there are restaurants, teahouses, cloth shops, jewelry shops, cosmetic shops and the like.

They have also been to the south of the city, where they bought food and vegetables.

Let's put it this way, the east of the city is like the commercial street of later generations, the kind of place where rich people or people with some family background often go shopping.

The south of the city is the farmer's market, and only some civilians or servants of wealthy families go there to purchase daily necessities.

The west side belongs to government departments and administrative centers, as well as some wealthy manors.

There was no one on the street there, and it was very serious. Just like what Xiaojuan said, if someone wandered around there, it would be easy to be caught as a spy.

This Han city is not small, but in Qingyan's opinion, it is really not big, at least it is incomparable with the cities of later generations.

It was as big as the town of their hometown, and it only took a few miles to walk from one end to the other, as if they walked from the east to the west in only ten minutes.

This is justifiable, after all, in ancient times, the construction of a city had to be surrounded by a city wall. If the area enclosed was too large, how many years would it take to repair the city wall?

Now it depends entirely on manpower, but there is no mechanical help in later generations.

Of course, this is just the area inside the city. In fact, the area outside the city is not small. Those villages and cultivated land also belong to the scope of Hancheng, but they are not surrounded by the center of the city.

……

Because of Li Hao's sudden departure, Qingyan was not interested in going out for a walk anymore, anyway, they had already taken a look around yesterday and the day before yesterday.

The day before yesterday, I went to the south of the city with a few old ladies to buy some food and vegetables, and yesterday I also bought some cloth to make clothes in the east of the city.

Today I said I was out for a stroll, but in fact I came to the Garrison Mansion to look for Li Hao.

As for how everyone can rest assured that the three of them are wandering around outside?If there were only Lan Hua and Da Ya, they would definitely not worry about it. With Qing Yan, a little girl who dared to travel alone, and she had the skills, they were not worried at all.

As for Chou Chou and Little Leopard, they must not be brought out. This city is not like being on the road. Even on the road, Chou Chou and Little Leopard are mostly put in satchels, or nestled in donkey carts with Heidan. , and will not show up blatantly.

It won't work if you're in the city, if you hang out with the two of them in your arms, it's a bit too eye-catching.

Qingyan is also afraid of meeting some dandy and seeing the little leopard like on TV. She just wants to take a good look around the ancient city, and she doesn't want to have conflicts with others. When the time comes, everyone in Yang Jiaping Bring troubles.

But now I have to reconsider what to do next.

It will be the day when they leave in a few days. There should be no chance for Li Hao to meet again, and there is no chance to give him the money for buying a house. It seems that they can only leave the money to Yang Dashan and the others.

Yang Dashan's family and Lanhua's grandfather and grandson will live in the same yard in the future. The relationship between the two families is good, and they both have children, so they can take care of each other and the children can play together.

The small courtyard they bought by themselves has been tidied up, and they will move there soon. At that time, they can entrust this courtyard to their care. Qingyan is still very optimistic about the character of Yang Dashan's family and Lanhua's grandfather and grandson. .
