Chapter 294 Chaozhou Jia Mansion
"Princess, in half a day, we will arrive in Chaozhou." Qing Li looked at the scenery outside, and her mood jumped up. After all, this is also her hometown. Who doesn't miss their hometown.
Tong Ange glanced outside, and his eyes fell on the little old man in the carriage: "Old man, I will be there soon." These days, although the little old man's motion sickness is not as serious as it was at the beginning, after all, he is getting old and physically sick. Uncomfortable, the little old man's spirit is still weak these days.
"En." With a light hum, the little old man continued to lean against the wall of the carriage and doze off.
When Tong Ange and his carriage entered Chaozhou City, it was already the night when the lights were on. As Qing Li said, this Chaozhou City is close to Zhou State, and the customs and customs are similar to Zhou State. Tong Ange and the others found an inn to stay and saw The layout and food and drinks in the inn are also somewhat different from those in Qi.
"The guest officials are from other places, so you must have a good taste of our food and wine. It's a special taste." Xiao Er warmly introduced Tong Ange and the others.
Tong Ange smiled and nodded: "Then serve a few signature dishes first, and a pot of good wine."
"Okay, sir, wait a moment."
When the waiter went down, Tong Ange looked around and found that there were a lot of guests in the inn, and there was a constant stream of people coming and going, as if something lively was about to happen.
"Guest officer, all the food and wine you ordered have been brought up." The waiter brought the food and wine and set them up.
Tong Ange took the opportunity to ask: "Second Brother, may I ask if there is any happy event going to happen in Chaozhou City? I see that your inn is very lively."
"Guest officer, you are asking the right person. In the past few days, Mr. Jia, the largest merchant in Chaozhou City, chose a son-in-law for his daughter, held a banquet, and invited all the blind dates in the city to join in the fun. Big, friends are all over the world, so the guests from other places in Chaozhou City these days, nine out of ten are here for the happy event of Master Jia's house."
Hearing what the shop waiter said, Tong Ange's eyes flashed with curiosity. This Jia family is really a powerful family. They can make such a big battle for their daughter's son-in-law, and they even hold a water banquet. The consort's posture is gone.
"It seems that this Mr. Jia is really rich, and he held a big banquet. In addition to entertaining all the blind dates in Chaozhou City, there are so many guests from other places. This family is really good." Qing Li beside him couldn't help it. Said.
"That is, it is said that the gold and silver of Mr. Jia's family is as rich as a country. Jia's family is not just an ordinary merchant's family. In Zhou State, Jia's family made friends with many dignitaries. You have a good relationship with the Jia family, if anyone can marry a young lady from the Jia family, they will be happy for several lifetimes." The waiter said happily, as if he belonged to the Jia family.
When he set the dishes and left, Tong Ange's eyes narrowed slightly, is there still contact between the Jia family and the dignitaries of the state of Zhou?Then they are looking for an antidote this time, isn't it...
Thinking of this, Tong Ange couldn't help but look at the little old man Yaowang beside him, and the little old man's eyes flickered slightly, and said: "Since the Jia family is feasting on guests, we can also go and see it in Chaozhou City these two days. .”
"Well, let's eat first."
Several people stayed in the inn, and Tong Ange ordered Qing Li to go out to find out the news. Soon, Qing Li got most of the information about the Jia family.
Mr. Jia, Jia Yunxiu, had a daughter, Jia Yanran, who was beautiful and talented, but there was one thing that was strange. Miss Jia was in her twenties this year, but she had never been able to find a good husband. This Mr. Jia was in a hurry, so He just held such a banquet for choosing a son-in-law, and wanted to choose a young talented man from many good men to marry his daughter, so that he could inherit the Jia family's business in the future.
Listening to Qing Li's report, Tong Ange couldn't help raising her eyebrows: "This Miss Jia is already in her 20s and still not married?"
It's not that she thinks that being in her 20s is a late marriage, but in the ancient times of early marriage, most women were married at the age of sixteen or seventeen. For example, Miss Jia who is in her 20s and has not yet married, really sounds a little bit Rare.
"Yes, it is said that Miss Jia is talented and looks like a fairy, but she has not been able to find a suitable husband these years, it seems that she really answered a word, there is no one who is perfect." Qing Li said. , sighed a few times.
But Tong Ange listened, but he didn't think it was true. The reason why this Miss Jia is still unmarried at such an age should not be as simple as not finding a suitable Mr. Ruyi, right?
"Let's go, pick out two sets of men's clothing, and we'll go to Jia's to join in the fun." Tong Ange said to Qingli.
When they came to Chaozhou this time, although the old man Yaowang said that the antidote was available in Zhou State, it was only a weak clue and there was no substantial progress. Many dignitaries in the country have made friends, so why not go to Jia's house to inquire about the news, maybe there will be some unexpected gains.
*
Jia's house is easy to find, the streets are full of people talking about Jia's house, just ask anyone around, Tong Ange and Qing Li found Jia's mansion.
People come and go on the vermilion lacquered door. Standing at the door, you can see the joyful arrangement in the courtyard, with bright red silk flowers hanging everywhere, and lanterns with happy characters posted on them.
Tong Ange raised his eyebrows. It seems that Master Jia is going to marry his daughter off this time?
"Let's go in and take a look." Tong Ange said to Qing Li beside him, and walked towards the courtyard of Jia's mansion.
The waiter in the shop said that Jia's mansion held a large banquet, so it seems that there is no need for invitations.
Sure enough, the housekeeper at the door greeted Tong Ange with a smile, and the joy in Jia's mansion rushed to his face.
"Young master, the Baihua Garden is here, please come along with the maidservant."
Before entering the courtyard, a purple-clothed maidservant greeted her, her respectful and polite voice was like the cry of a lark, beautiful and moving.
Tong Ange raised her eyebrows, it seems that this Jia's mansion is really extraordinary, even the maids in the mansion are so beautiful, I don't know what the young lady of the Jia's family looks like.
"Thank you." After saying something lightly, Tong Ange thought to himself, Baihuayuan, the place where Jia's mansion receives guests is located in Baihuayuan, or is there any other arrangement?
As if aware of the doubts in Tong Ange's heart, the maid in purple explained with a smile: "Our master's banquet for the young lady to choose a son-in-law is held in Baihuayuan. You might as well try it, maybe you can be selected."
"I accept your auspicious words." Tong Ange smiled lightly, and followed the purple-clothed maid through the moon gate, and was about to walk forward, when suddenly a blur appeared in front of her eyes, and a person bumped into her directly, she had no defense at all, and just ended like that He bumped into each other firmly.
"Well……"
"Young master..." Qing Li behind him exclaimed when he saw this, and quickly stepped forward to support Tong Ange who was almost hit.
"My lord, are you alright?" Qing Li asked worriedly.
"It's okay." Tong Ange shook his head, stood up straight, and then looked at the person who bumped into him just now.
Standing in front of her was a woman dressed in the same style as the maidservant in purple. At this moment, the other party was frowning and staring at herself with a pair of watery eyes. Maybe it hurt from the bump just now, she He reached out and rubbed his arm.
"Little... Pearl, why are you so careless?" Seeing this, the purple-clothed maid hurriedly stepped forward, checked that she was not injured, then pulled her behind her, and looked at Tong Ange apologetically: " My servant girl is ignorant and offended you, please forgive me."
"No problem." Tong Ange looked away from the woman, his eyes flickered slightly.
The maidservant in purple whispered a few words to the woman, and then took Tong Ange to the direction of Baihuayuan.
When they arrived at Baihuayuan, the purple-clothed maidservant blessed Tong Ange, said please go ahead, young master, and hurriedly turned and left.
Seeing her slightly anxious steps, Tong Ange raised his eyebrows, did he accidentally discover something?
Seeing this, Qing Li said, "It seems that the maid who bumped into Miss just now is not an ordinary woman."
Tong Ange laughed, but didn't speak. That woman must not be an ordinary person, otherwise the purple-clothed maid just now wouldn't be so nervous.
"Let's go in first."
The two of them went in, and there were quite a few young masters gathered in Baihuayuan, all of them were eager to try, and their eyes were shining.
Regardless of whether the young lady of the Jia family looks like a fairy in the legend, just because of the family background of the Jia family, people can squeeze their heads in.
Mr. Jia's family has a great fortune and a wealth that can rival a country, but he only has one daughter under his knees. If someone marries the daughter of the Jia family, isn't that equivalent to inheriting the entire family business of the Jia family?
Which man in the world would not like such a good thing?
Naturally, when Tong Ange came to Jia's mansion, of course, she didn't have the intention of meeting Miss Jia. From the moment she came in, she looked at the whole Jia's mansion calmly, planning in her mind to find out what was going on in Jia's house first, and then think about it. way to achieve your goals.
This Hundred Flowers Garden is just like its name. The whole yard is colorful, as if you have come to a sea of flowers. Even the carved beams and painted pillars in the yard are carved with delicate and beautiful flowers. It's amazing.
However, Tong Ange frowned. It's early winter now. Although Chaozhou is not as cold as Beijing, it's not the season when flowers are in full bloom.
Just as he was thinking, a female voice like a silver bell came from the high platform at this moment:
"This Baihua Garden is the garden of our Jia Mansion. Because there is a fragrant soup in the courtyard, coupled with the terrain, the temperature in the Baihua Garden is warmer than outside, and the flowers planted in this courtyard will often bloom. undefeated."
The words of the maidservant on the high platform immediately aroused the admiration of everyone in the yard, who knew the whole leopard at a glance, this Jia's mansion is really rich and powerful!
