The splendid years of a talented lady

Chapter 279 Checking the shop (1)
After Su Xiazhi finished speaking, she stretched out her foot and kicked him: "Your back is straight, look at you, sitting there hunched over, you look like a little old man!"

The boy is still a teenager now, and he is wearing an old-fashioned padded robe. He is sitting hunched over at this moment, and he really looks old-fashioned.

"Yes!" Hearing the master's few words, the servant felt courageous, and a shy smile unconsciously appeared on his pale face: "I'm the housekeeper and accountant? Oops..."

As soon as the body moved, the buttocks hurt sharply, and the boy couldn't help moaning.

dying!How embarrassing!

After the boy made this sound by himself, he returned to the state of curling up together with his head drooping, his face turning red and pale.

"How old are you?" Su Xiazhi glanced at him thoughtfully, then turned her head out of the car window again.

"Seventeen." The boy's voice was as soft as a mosquito humming.

"What about An Yi?"

"Young master should be 22 years old this year." Seeing that the master didn't look at him, the servant felt a lot more at ease, adjusted his sitting posture, and he straightened his back and sat upright.

"No wonder..." One is an adult and the other is a half-grown child. After Su Xiazhi automatically classified An Yi into the category of a beast, she worried about the future of the servant.

"Eat more food in the future, don't be picky eaters, and don't miss three meals a day." Su Xiazhi said kindly: "You are still young, and it is time to grow your body, so you must eat more."

Thinking that Gao Yue, who was a few years younger than him, was now much taller than the boy, Su Xiazhi felt that it was too late to make up for him now.

"Yes." How did you talk about this so smoothly?The servant thought hard for a while and came to a conclusion: Since the master wants to promote him to be the housekeeper of the Min family, his current too thin figure will lose his momentum, and naturally his words will lose weight.

It seems that I really need to eat more in the future to make myself stronger.

"Yeah." The boy's personality is soft, obedient and sensible. Seeing that he understood as soon as he said it, Su Xiazhi felt that it would be easier to talk to smart people: "Eat more, you can grow your body, and only when you grow your body can you have a healthy body." strength."

"When you gain strength, your butt won't hurt anymore, hehe..." Su Xiazhi suddenly grinned as she thought about it, and said in her heart: The boy's butt doesn't hurt anymore, An Yi's butt should hurt Bar……

With the guidance of the servant, Uncle Shi's mule cart entered Ping County and drove directly into Fuzi Street.

Su Xiazhi kept looking out of the car window, and when she got to Fuzi Street, she realized that it was not far from the county government office.

As soon as they arrived at Fuzi Street, Su Xiazhi got out of the car with the boy, because she didn't know where the front-facing house she bought was, so she had to walk around the shops on both sides of the road one by one.

Seeing this, the unique prosperity of the whole street made her feel emotional: "No wonder the four houses here are more expensive than the two yards of Zhou's house in Xinghua Village!"

The number of times I have been to Ping County is not too small, but I have never been to this street.

Compared with the streets I walked in the past, the streets of Fuzi Street are all flat roads covered with large pieces of bluestone.

The shops on both sides of the street are much taller than other places from the outside, but from one end of the street to the other end, at a glance, there are archways of different shapes one after another, standing from one side to the other side of the street. head……

Walking under these archways made of stone and wood, Su Xiazhi felt overwhelmed, as if there were people sitting on each archway, looking down at her condescendingly at the moment!
There is a memorial archway separated by a short distance, and the handwriting engraved on it may be clear or blurred depending on the age.

He raised his head and looked at them one by one, and finally stopped under an archway with the words "Jinshi" engraved in the middle: "The 79 Jinshi in the pilot test An Huaiyuanli... Hehe, everyone called him Master Juren, I thought he was just a Juren, I didn’t expect to be a Jinshi.”

"My family..." As soon as the boy opened his mouth, he realized that he had said something wrong. He raised his eyes to look at Su Xiazhi and quickly said again: "As far as I know, Mr. An is the number one student in Ping County in the past few decades. He is a Juren, and he is also one of the few Jinshi from the state capital. Because Mr. An was less than 30 years old when he won the exam, he became famous immediately. At the beginning, he won the imperial examination and gained a great reputation.”

"Yeah. So that's the case." Su Xiazhi nodded, stretched out her hands and rubbed her neck and said, "I almost missed the business after watching for a long time. Let's go find a house."

"Master, can you see if they are those rooms?"

Looking in the direction of the boy's finger, I saw several shops across the street with closed doors and windows. From the outside, they were as tall and grand as the shops next to them. The difference was that the doors and windows of this shop were There are still some scraps of paper left on it.

Those scraps of paper were not the red paper used to paste Spring Festival couplets during the New Year, but left on the door after the seal was torn off.

"Go and have a look."

Su Xiazhi walked over with the servant, walked back and forth a few times at the door of the shop, and then looked in through the crack of the door and said, "It's probably here."

"Is it here?" The boy looked up at the place where the plaque should be hung at the door of the shop, and found that there was nothing on it.

"This place used to be a shop for framing calligraphy and paintings. By the way, calligraphy and paintings written by students in the academy were also consigned. There are only two such shops in Ping County, so their business was very prosperous."

The boy used to come and go on this street frequently, so he is quite familiar with the place.

"It seems to be selling calligraphy and painting or something." When buying these doors, Su Xiazhi remembered that Mr. Zhao seemed to have said a few words, but what she paid most attention to at that time was the Zhou family's fields in Xinghua Village. The store didn't care too much.

He reached out and took out a key from the pouch at his waist and handed it to the boy: "Try to unlock it, if you can open it, you're right."

Now that the seals on the doors and windows have been torn off, there is no need to make another trip to the county office. Su Xiazhi secretly has a good impression of Mr. Zhao in his heart, feeling that this person is brittle and will not procrastinate.

With a sound of 'click', the big copper lock opened, and Su Xiazhi's heart skipped a beat along with the sound. This was the first family property she and Xiucai bought. Now the house is in front of her eyes, and she is still a child. Little excited!
