Chapter 1317 A good match finally succeeds (4)
Luliu sent a servant to Yaxiangzhai to deliver a letter, and the messenger came back and said that Ms. Zhu's family had not left the capital. It turned out that Ms. Zhu had been waiting for the emperor to pronounce a sentence on the matter of the British family until the end of last month. Seeing that the Chinese New Year is about to come, if I go back now, I might be on the road to celebrate the New Year, so I stayed.Liu Qiqiao knew that Miss Zhu was now in the capital with Mrs. Zhu and her own younger brother. Although she had the help of her grandfather's family, after Boss Zhu passed away, it must be difficult for her to decide everything in the family.Liu Qiqiao thought about it for a while, and felt that since the matter of Yingyinggong had been settled, it would not be a big problem even if the relationship between her and Miss Zhu was known to outsiders. Anyway, Anjitang was finally taken over by Baoshantang. Things will naturally be known to the people in the capital.

So Liu Qiqiao asked Lu Liu to prepare a gift, and planned to visit Zhu Moqin's family in person.The Zhu family lived in Zhu's mansion on Guangji Road. Liu Qiqiao knew about this early on. Although Zhu Moqin was the daughter of a merchant, she would not go out often.Liu Qiqiao got into the carriage, took Lu Liu and Zi Su with her, and headed for Guangji Road.If Begging Street is a gathering place for the poor from outside, then Guangji Road is the gathering place for the rich from outside, with a strong commercial atmosphere and a mixed population.Zhu's Mansion is near Guangji Road, and it is a rare and quiet place.

When Liu Qiqiao arrived at the gate of Zhu's house, she asked the chauffeur to go up and call the door first. The chaperone of Zhu's house spoke with an Anhui accent, and when he saw a carriage parked at the door, he knew that someone must be coming. I just hurriedly went inside to report.Not long after, Liu Qiqiao got out of the carriage, and the people inside came out. Liu Qiqiao saw a woman in her early forties, supported by Zhu Moqin, and she was accompanied by a woman who looked only in her twenties. The girl, holding a two or three-year-old boy in her arms, looks like a tiger, very cute.

Seeing Liu Qiqiao, Zhu Moqin only took two steps forward, blessed her body in front of Liu Qiqiao and said, "Why did the eldest young mistress come to my house? Why didn't you send someone to notify me first, in case nothing happened?" How about a run."

Liu Qiqiao returned the gift, and was welcomed in by Zhu Moqin, saying: "I asked the boy to go to Yaxiangzhai early in the morning, and I heard from them that you haven't left yet, so I came here to see you. There were some things at home earlier. , I left too hastily, but I forgot to thank you for the incense last time."

Zhu Moqin smiled and said: "Young lady, you are being polite. Last time I said I wanted to make some incense for pregnant women for the girl. After I made it, I realized that the young lady went to the south, and now she is still keeping it at home. Today, I just let you Take them back, young lady." Everyone welcomed Liu Qiqiao into the main hall, Liu Qiqiao also took a little look at Zhu's house, this is a courtyard house with three entrances, it is very spacious, the road leading to the main hall behind the screen wall is very wide, There are small gardens on both sides, surrounded by Chaoshou verandahs. Those who can afford such a house in the capital must have a rich family.

After everyone was seated, the woman holding the little boy also came up to greet Liu Qiqiao.Liu Qiqiao bowed to Mrs. Zhu again, and asked Zisu and Luliu to take out the gift.In fact, it is just some ordinary things from the south, a few pieces of fabric, a few catties of tea, and a piece of high-quality agarwood.
