Zhou Caijing's house is located in Jiangmi Lane in the east of the city.
Most of the people in this alley are from wealthy families.
When Li Yuan and Xie Yanzhi took people back, they happened to encounter a family holding a wedding event, and the alley was blocked by cars and horses.
Because there were many people, Xie Yanzhi bent down and picked up Qingsha, while Li Yuan held Caiwei tightly.
Although they were curious, they were not familiar with it when they first arrived, so they didn't waste much time and squeezed through the crowd and headed home.
But they never expected that when they were about to leave the lively crowd, Nanny Ou, who was following closely behind them, was suddenly grabbed by someone.
"Wanhua?"
Aunt Ou looked at the woman holding her hand expressionlessly, "Madam, you recognized the wrong person!"
The woman holding Grandma Ou's arm looked to be in her thirties and was wearing a festive red dress.
Facing Grandma Ou's rebuttal, she shook her head firmly: "No, you are Wanhua."
After saying this, she looked at the person up and down, and then her eyes fell on Li Yuan and Xie Yanzhi who stopped when they heard their movements.
"You were not exiled, how could you come back to Beijing? Who are those two people to you?"
Aunt Ou denied with a neither humble nor arrogant attitude: "Madam, this old slave is really not Wanhua. You have recognized the wrong person. Also, those two are my masters."
The woman looked at what Li Yuan and his wife were wearing, then looked at the clothes on Grandma Ou, and finally sneered, "Okay, if you say it's not, then it's not. But I'll have people go to Lingnan to check, you'd better No. If so, then don’t blame me for exposing this matter. After all, how can someone whose whole family has been exiled and never be allowed to return to the capital appear here, don’t you think?"
After saying this, she said to Li Yuan and his wife with a high profile: "You, low-status merchants, can't just buy slaves just because they have some money. Even if you want to buy, you have to keep your eyes open. It's not a shame." Everyone can buy it.”
Speaking of this, she snorted coldly and said with a mocking face: "If you don't do it right, you will bring disaster to yourself. I advise you to sell this cheap maid as soon as possible."
Aunt Ou was given by Su Mingshan, who said she was once the housekeeper of a third-grade official's family.
Li Yuan's first impression of her was good, and in the past few months, she had taught both Caiwei and Qingsha well.
So as long as she really can't offend the person who comes back, Li Yuan will not drive her away.
Seeing this woman's arrogance, she subconsciously felt unhappy.
At this time, she did not explain that she was not a merchant, but asked: "Oh? According to Madam, if I sell Grandma Ou, everything will be fine?"
Aunt Ou has spent so many years in wealthy families and has her own way of recognizing people.
She knew what kind of character Li Yuan was, and was indifferent when she asked if she wanted to betray herself.
Because she knew that Li Yuan would not send her away just because of a few words from an outsider.
So, now she stood there, looking at Li Yuan neither humble nor arrogant.
When the woman heard Li Yuan's name, it turned out to be a foreign accent.
Hearing this, he thought she was scared, and felt happy, and replied: "That's not the case! If you sell someone in the capital, of course it's none of your business. But if you sell someone to me, what happens next?" I will help you solve the problem."
Li Yuan knew with her knees that this woman and Aunt Ou were no match for each other.
If a person really falls into her hands, there is only one way to die.
It's rare to have a good mother-in-law who can teach children. She is stupid and would send Grandma Ou away because of a few words from an outsider.
"In that case, there is no need to trouble Madam! My Aunt Ou is very nice, and she is not Wanhua like you said. You have mistaken her. Also, we have no money, we are very poor, and we are not a businessman. Madam Even if you come from an official family, don't look down on others."
After she said this, she didn't care what the other person's face was, she immediately called Aunt Ou and left.
She hadn't gone far when she heard Zhou Zi's voice from behind.
"Ms. Li, my third lady is here!"
When Li Yuan heard this, she paused in her steps. As soon as she turned around, she saw the woman who was still standing there, staring blankly at the carriage of the Zhenguo Marquis Mansion.
Even if the marquis of Zhenguo falls out of favor with the emperor, he is still a marquis. His mansion is located in the inner city, and it is not something that ordinary people and petty officials can reach.
The eastern part of the outer city is rich and the west is aristocratic. Most of the people living in the eastern part of the city are merchants. Occasionally, there are a few households that are officials, and those are from the fifth grade and below.
It's just like the husband of the woman Li Yuan was fighting against before.
At this time, when the woman saw the carriage of the Marquis of Zhenguo appearing here, could she not be dumbfounded?
What made her even more dumbfounded was that the carriage with the logo of Zhenguo Hou Mansion actually stopped in front of the house she had just mentioned after squeezing through it with great difficulty.
And the voice coming from the carriage called the woman she just called a lowly merchant as her sister.
What puzzled her the most was that the woman actually called Caijing to the people in the carriage.
As an official's wife, even if she hadn't seen anyone with a title in the capital, she knew all about them.
She knew exactly who lived in those families.
Caijing, isn't she Zhou Caijing, the third lady of the Zhenguo Hou Mansion?
It's really strange that the dignified third lady of the Zhenguo Hou Mansion actually calls someone who doesn't look very well-dressed sister.
Could it be that that woman has some background?
Li Yuan, Xie Yanzhi and others did not take the woman seriously.
After the group of them returned home, another person walked out of the carriage.
"Auntie!"
Caiwei never expected that Qingmei would come.
When she saw the person, she screamed happily and ran towards her.
Qingmei was in trouble for a while, but then she got better because of the Lingquan water, and she went to the Zhenguohou Mansion for recuperation for a period of time. With the blessing of the Lingquan water, not only her body and bones were healed, but her complexion was much better than before. .
I don’t know whether it’s because she’s getting older or because she found her sister, but now she no longer has any manipulations on her face, but instead reveals her true appearance.
She looks quite similar to Li Yuan and Zhou Caijing.
If they stand together and say that the three of them are mother and daughter, some people will believe it.
But if we say it's more similar, it's Caiwei.
It's just that Caiwei's appearance is more delicate than theirs.
Qingmei hadn't seen Li Yuan and the others for a long time, and she missed them very much. After learning that they were coming to the capital, she couldn't wait to come.
When she saw Caiwei, perhaps because they were related by another generation, she hugged him tightly in her arms.
"Okay, okay, let's ask my aunt to take a look."
After a while, she let go, bent down, and stared at Caiwei's eyebrows carefully.
After reading it, she said to Xie Yanzhi: "The capital is a place of right and wrong. After the scientific examination is over, if possible, find an opportunity to leave. Caiwei is still young now, so she can wait another three to five years."
