Chapter 230 Going out to deliver a letter

Naturally, everyone enjoyed dinner.

After a good rest, there is still work to be done, and everyone is adapting very well to the first night in their new home.

Everyone is well asleep.

The next morning.

After breakfast, An Jin went to look at the store and planned to bring the whole family down.

Then he had to find Brother Xiao, the leader of the caravan, to establish a relationship so that he could use his network for his own purposes. During this period, he also had to find a housekeeper for the other servants in the family to come back and learn the rules, so An Jin was busy Very.

Song Yue was not idle either. She first made some lists for Ma 1 and Ma 2 to purchase, and then set off with Ma 5 and Ma 6 to deliver the message to Mr. Lu's house.

Ma San and Ma Si followed An Jin and left Ma Qi to look after the house with his apprentices.

The two little maids, left and right, are also at home.

As soon as Dingxiang left the house, she was chattering around Song Yue, and kept talking about the difference between the capital and Wucheng, "This capital is big, but it's not good to be too big. It takes a lot of time to go out, and it's impossible without a carriage." Can’t survive.”

Unless you are going to a nearby place, it is best to have a sedan, otherwise you will be lame even if you go out for a trip, and a carriage is indispensable when going to a farther place.

When Song Yue went out this time, she set up a carriage with five horses and six horses, took some greeting gifts along with her, and then delivered the family letter entrusted to her by Mr. Lu.

Then identify the door.

It doesn't matter, you don't have to be a fool, especially in a strange place. It doesn't matter whether you use it in the future or not. You will definitely not suffer from a trip like this.

Song Yue and Ding Xiang were sitting in the carriage, while Ma Wu and Ma Liu were driving outside. They kept a low profile and blended into the traffic flow of the capital without being obtrusive at all.

The morning in the west of Beijing is also very lively, and the roads have begun to become blocked.

Many vehicles came and went.

Song Yue and Ding Xiang both lifted some curtains and looked outside. There were people pulling mule carts, horse-drawn carriages, and people from outside the suburbs of Beijing pulling donkeys.

The small alleys on both sides were full of shouts and shouts, which was very lively.

Not far after Song Yue walked out of her house, she was blocked on the main road. She heard the people nearby discussing gossip, and she happened to gossip.

"Have you heard? Yesterday, the family at the entrance of Shenhua Alley moved in with a new family, and they settled on the house in just one day. This is really a generous move."

"When did such a person come to the west of our city? Don't many people look down on our place?"

"Hey, who knows? I heard that there were more than 20 people and three carriages, and they moved for a long time. No master was seen. It's just the young ones."

"I live over there, and word has spread among the maids and ladies in the house! I heard that the guards here are young and handsome! They are all so good-looking!"

"Hey, this is strange. Those high-ranking officials are very particular about this. If they really have such ability, they wouldn't live in the west of our city?"

"Could it be that the bandit leader came from somewhere? If not, why would he come to our place?"

This topic was interesting, and it immediately aroused the interest of the melon-eating crowd. Everyone was gossiping, some were holding the steamed buns and gnawing on them and forgot to put their mouth down. They were listening carefully, and some were standing and listening with bowls of bean curds in their hands. .

Ding Xiang let out a "poof" as she listened, then blushed and cursed: "They are the bandits!! Why are the people here so rude?"

I thought people in the capital were more refined and wouldn't talk like talkative women.

Song Yue also listened with gusto and didn't look angry at all. She saw Ding Xiang was angry and said to her, "What's so angry about this? It's not painful for us to say a few words. It's just a good time to build a reputation for our store later." .”

Ding Xiang was stunned when she heard this, "Huh?" She didn't expect her master to have this kind of thinking.

Song Yue said she was stupid, "But the people here are very well-informed. When we moved yesterday, there weren't many people watching. They were all looking at their feelings." She snorted.

Having successfully sorted out all the useful information, he said to Ma Wu Ma Liu: "Be more careful at the door of your home from now on, and tell others, and stop gossiping near the door."

Beware that walls have ears.

Sure enough, there are some differences between Beijing and Wucheng. People in Wucheng are always curious about gossip, and they will poke their heads in your door to take a look.

The folk customs here are also gossipy, but everyone is more cautious.

At least I really won’t stand in front of your house and watch the fun, gossiping in front of you.

Ma Wu and Ma Liu also reacted immediately and agreed repeatedly, "Yes."

Song Yue nodded with satisfaction.

Ding Xiang covered her mouth in fear, and then whispered: "These people are too thieves."

Yesterday when we were moving, some people from nearby passed by, but they were walking around normally. No one stopped to watch the excitement. Unexpectedly, everyone was secretly paying attention to them?

Terrible.

Song Yue glanced at Ding Xiang in a funny way and let her figure it out on her own.

In order to go to Mr. Lu's house, Song Yue spent some time in a carriage before arriving at the center of the capital before noon and found the Lu Mansion in the residential area there.

Master Lu, regardless of whether they are biological children or cousins, there are quite a few brothers and sisters, and it is also a big family. There are more than a hundred people in the family, and they are all very promising.

He and a cousin are the only ones in the family who work as officials, while the others do business.

He is a native of Beijing.

This family can be regarded as rising from the grassroots, and it was still helped by a cousin.

This cousin is also a popular person in front of the emperor, so the Lu family is quite able to get around in the capital. Not to mention how powerful they are, but at least they can maintain a foothold.

These were all what An Jin told Ma Wu and Ma Liu to find out. The people in her family are all very powerful. Song Yue couldn't help but sigh after hearing this.

Ding Xiang became nervous when she heard this, "Hey, darling, is this big red man in front of the Holy Master? Doesn't he have a high official position?"

Ma Wu paused for a moment, and then said with some embarrassment that the cousin of the Lu family was a father-in-law.

Ding Xiang also felt a little embarrassed.

He's a eunuch...

Song Yue glanced at Ding Xiang and said to her: "Forget it in private, don't say a few words outside."

Ding Xiang immediately nodded cautiously. Hearing that the other party was from such a distinguished family, she immediately did not dare to mess around. They would definitely not behave like they were at home.

Ma Wu also said in a low voice: "I heard that Eunuch Qiu has no relatives in his family anymore, and his family has also been discontinued. It is said that he has adopted a child from the Lu family as his son..."

Therefore, the relationship between the two families is indeed very, very good, so you must be cautious when dealing with the Lu family. If you use it well, you can indeed take care of Song Yue. If you accidentally offend him, it is indeed dangerous.

Song Yue asked Ma Wu and Ma Liu to rest assured, and then they both agreed.

Ding Xiang still finds it novel. When they were in Wucheng, because of Song Yue's relationship, they often dealt with the yamen, so it might be a little scary for other people, but it was very familiar to Ding Xiang and Ma Yi.

We all know many of the government officials, and we can see Mr. Lu from time to time.

Mr. Lu always looked so kind, and he had no idea that his family background was so good.
