reborn princess

Chapter 480 Run away from the mansion
Xuan Yu also frowned and said, "This girl has a bad temper, but Brother Chen likes it, so what can we do? Let nature take its course!"

Just when Xuan Chen led people to chase in the direction of Liaocheng, Shen Weilan came to the small village that Fang Haoran helped her buy near the capital.

This Zhuangzi is in Yujiazhuang, fifty miles west of the city. The so-called Zhuangzi is just a farmer's family. There are only three adobe houses in the yard surrounded by bamboo fences. It was winter, and Fang Haoran didn't ask anyone to watch the house. To be honest, the three adobe houses were not worth asking someone to watch, so they left them alone.

She found a few children in the village who went out to play, and the children showed her the way. After finding here, she found a copper lock hanging on the door. Shen Weilan had keys in her hand. There were two keys in total. Fang Haoran He kept one for himself and gave it to her, which happened to be with her when she left the palace.

She took out the key and opened the door, worried that the wind outside would freeze Xiao Hei, so she led Xiao He in.

The big stoves and big iron pots on both sides of the main room were there, and the furniture in the room was still there. She tied Xiao Hei to the legs of the Eight Immortals table, and then went to the rooms on both sides to look around. Maybe it was because no one lived there for some days. There is a light layer of dust on the furniture and Kang in the house, but the window paper is newly pasted this year, and it is not broken yet.

She rummaged around, and saw that the chest was empty, only some shabby clothes, and nothing else, so she bit her lip and thought about it, then turned and walked out, in the village Turned around, found the most magnificent courtyard, went in and knocked on the door of this family.

"Anyone at home?"

"Who is it?" A crisp voice came from the room, and then, a woman in her fifties came out. The woman looked her up and down a few times, and then asked a little warily. "Girl, who are you looking for?"

Shen Weilan smiled and said: "I just moved here. My surname is Shen. My family bought a house and land from Du's house in the east of the village. I came here today to look at the house and found that there was nothing in the house, so I wanted to make a call with my aunt. Discuss, can you sell me some grain and vegetables? Half a month's supply is enough, after the fifteenth day, the market will open, and I can go out to buy grain."

The woman looked at her suspiciously, "You are a little girl, who is celebrating Chinese New Year, and you ran to live in this remote village by yourself? Where are your family members?"

Shen Weilan smiled and said, "I'm the current person, and the master's family ordered me to come and see Zhuangzi, and I didn't like it!"

"Oh..." The vigilance in the woman's eyes relaxed a bit. I heard that those rich families are indeed very strange. She looked at Shen Weilan's appearance and thought to herself, maybe this girl is so beautiful , That's why she was sent out by the mistress of the master's house, so as to prevent her from climbing into the kang of the master and young master.

She deduced it in her heart, and when she saw a silver ingot worth twelve taels handed to her, a smile appeared on her face, "I don't know what you want to buy, girl?"

Shen Weilan smiled and said: "It doesn't matter what, daily necessities, rice, oil, salt and other things, my aunt just give me a little of everything, but I am small, so I don't think I can take many things, so I ask my aunt to help deliver it. In my room I don’t have anything, if I have a clean bedding, please sell me a bed.”

After saying that, she saluted the woman, then turned around and went back to her house, found a wooden barrel in the house, fetched water from the well in the village, and carried it back easily.

After going back and forth like this several times to fill up the water tank, she was already sweating slightly.

There was a pile of wheat straw piled up by the previous landlord in the yard. She carried some into the house, found a small pot and sat in front of the stove, brushed the pot, and started to light the fire. By the way, she also burned the kang in the house .

She was lighting the fire when she heard the woman's voice from outside, "Is Miss Shen at home?"

"Here, Madam, please come in!" She hurriedly stood up, opened the door, and invited the old lady to come in.

The woman was followed by several people, a man in his thirties and a young man in his teens, who looked like father and son, carrying a basket made of rattan with bags of rice flour, grain, oil, etc. thing.

A village woman in her thirties carried a sack on her shoulders.

A girl about her age held a set of quilts in her arms.

The woman was holding a bamboo basket in her left hand, with twenty or thirty eggs in it, and a pillow in her right hand.

The woman smiled and said, "Ms. Shen, here are ten catties of brown rice, ten catties of millet, ten catties of millet, ten catties of fine white flour, ten catties of corn flour, half catty of salt, half catty of sugar, one catty of soybean oil, and half catty of vinegar." , half a catty of soy sauce, and four catties of eggs, and the sack carried by my eldest daughter-in-law is four cabbages, and some vegetables such as potatoes and radishes."

"Thank you, ma'am!" Shen Weilan glanced at the grain and the sack of vegetables in the basket, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. These things were enough for her to eat until the market opened.

The woman gently put the bamboo basket on the stove, then patted her chest with her hands and said: "Miss Shen, if you have anything to do in the future, just go to me. My old man is Lizheng here. If you have anything to do, just tell me."

"Thank you aunt for telling me, I won't be polite to aunt!" Now that it's the end of the year, it's not easy to get these things.

The woman looked around for a while, told the family to put down all the things, and then called to her daughter-in-law: "Boss, you and Qingqing helped Miss Shen clean up the house, and the old Du's family left It’s been a few days, and the house is full of dirt.”

Shen Weilan hurriedly said: "Thank you, Ma'am, for your help!"

The things that this woman brought her were only worth two or three taels of silver at most, but she gave ten taels of silver. This woman was willing to help her clean up the house, which was what she wished for.

The woman sent away her son and grandson, and stayed behind with her daughter-in-law and granddaughter, busy helping Shen Weilan clean up the house.

Shen Weilan said to the woman again: "Ma'am, I have something else I want to trouble you with. Is there anyone in this village who likes embroidery? I want to buy an embroidery stand!"

"Embroidery frame..." The woman rolled her eyes and thought for a while. "Yes, there are. There are a few families in the village who have them, but I don't know if they are willing to sell them. Let me go and ask for you!"

Shen Weilan smiled and said, "Ma'am, help me tell them that I am willing to pay five taels of silver to buy it! I will also give you two taels of silver as a thank-you gift!"

If you go out to buy an embroidery frame, it is only a few tens of pennies at most, even if it is high-quality wood, it is only a few hundred pennies, at most one tael of silver, and five taels of silver can be said to be a high price.

"Success!" The woman smiled, thinking to herself, today is considered a fortune, this girl can tell from the material of the clothes on her body that she is from a rich family, and the actions of this rich family are really extraordinary.

Shen Weilan took out her purse, took out seven taels of silver and handed it to the woman.

The woman narrowed her eyes with a smile, "I'll help you ask now!"

Saying that, the woman turned around and went out.

Only then did Shen Weilan breathe a sigh of relief. She left the Prince's Mansion in Changping County in a fit of anger today. She thought about going back to Liaocheng directly, but when she left the city, the cold wind blew, and she remembered that she planned to open an embroidery village after the beginning of spring. Thinking that he could not let that bastard Xuan Chen ruin his plan to make money anyway, he held back his breath and turned his head away.

At first, she wanted to go back to find Fang Haoran. After all, she had a house in the city, and Fang Haoran and his wife were there, so she wouldn't be hungry.

But she thought about it later, if she went to find Fang Haoran, she would definitely be found by that bastard Xuan Chen immediately, so she changed her mind and planned to find a quiet place and embroider the embroidery first.

As for whether Xuan Chen will come to find her, or how to find her, it is not within her consideration.

In a short time, she didn't want to see that bastard!
While struggling, she remembered the key Fang Haoran gave her earlier, as well as the land deed, so she ran over after asking all the way, planning to stay here for a while before talking.

She found a few rags in the box and asked the eldest daughter-in-law and granddaughter of the Lizheng family to help tidy up the house.

It's almost done here, and Mrs. Lizheng also bought the embroidery frame for her.

The embroidery frame was not very heavy, and Lizheng lady moved it back by herself. Shen Weilan saw that the bottom of the embroidery frame was dirty, it must have been placed on the ground on weekdays, so she scalded it with boiling water and wiped it clean , Only then did Madam Lizheng help put the embroidery frame on the kang.

She is used to sitting on the kang by the window to embroider.

After everything was packed, it was already evening, she thanked Mrs. Lizheng, and sent off Mrs. Lizheng and her family before starting to cook.

After a busy afternoon, she was a little hungry. Seeing cornmeal, to save trouble, she posted a few dumplings, fried a potato shreds, and ate them. The rest of the dumplings were fed to Xiao Hei, Xiao Hei looked at the cornmeal buns with a disgusted expression on his face, but after some coaxing from her, he ate the buns anyway.

She placed Xiao Hei in the west room, lived in the east room by herself, and lay down to sleep.

Lady Lizheng is quite kind, and the quilts sent to her are all newly made, and the cotton is also new cotton, which is very soft.

Just when she was sleeping comfortably, Xuan Chenyuan was in a "Home Inn" five hundred miles away, with a depressed expression on his face, and he didn't eat, just lying on the kang and thinking, he traveled all the way , found many inns to inquire about Shen Weilan's whereabouts, but found nothing. No one had seen Shen Weilan along the way. He felt that if Shen Weilan really returned to Liaocheng, it was impossible that no one saw her.

After all, Xiao Hei's appearance is really special, cows with horns are everywhere in this world, but horses with horns are rare.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but wonder, could it be that Shen Weilan knew that if she disappeared, he would definitely come to look for her, and that's why he was so suspicious?And she herself is hiding somewhere in the capital?
