Li Yi's feelings for Qing'an Mansion are naturally not comparable to those in Kyoto.
Even though Kyoto is more prosperous than here, there is no Liuye Village, Ruyifang, Goulan, or theater in Kyoto, and even the name of brothel is not as pleasant as Qunyuyuan.
After two months of running around, I had enough fun, but I was also exhausted. Now Li Yi just wanted to go home as soon as possible and lie on that familiar bed for a good sleep.
The carriage entered the city gate and went straight all the way. Li Yi walked this street countless times. In two or three months, even the hawkers on the roadside did not change much. Li Yi even saw people in police uniforms. Daniel was wandering on the road, the door of Ruyifang was closed, and the fat shopkeeper of the cloth shop next door moved a chair and sat in front of the shop, continuing to sigh for the deserted business in the shop—everything was the same as when he left.
The honest man left halfway, and Li Yi had to drive by himself. The carriage finally stopped in front of a big house. There were no adults at the door, and there were a few half-grown children playing around.
Lao Fang left the capital one step earlier than them, and wanted to take all the people here. It has been two months now, and they must have arrived in the capital long ago, but this place does not look like it is uninhabited. I don't know why.
Seeing Li Yi and the others get off the car, the children immediately stopped playing and hid behind the gate. When they saw them walking inside, they immediately dispersed and ran into the deeper courtyard.
The four of them had just stepped into the house when a figure came out to meet them. The girl named Yang Liuqing was slightly taken aback, and then said pleasantly: "Master, uncle, you are back!"
…
…
The room and yard were cleaned every day, even cleaner and tidy than when Li Yi left. I learned from Yang Liuqing that after Lao Fang and the others left, the task of looking after the house was given to her and these children.
These orphans no longer have to rely on begging for a living. The honest ones do some simple work in the theater, and the rest are not idle. The older children lead their younger siblings to sell candied haws every day, earning The money to feed them all and have a surplus.
"Master, after you leave, Mr. Sun from the theater and the steward of the palace will send some money every half a month, and it's all here." Yang Liuqing asked a few boys to move out a few boxes from the room, and explained.
It is not surprising that King Ning's Mansion will send money to Li Yi every once in a while. Li Yi remembers that when he left, he asked them to use all of the money to run the theater. Just like Qing.
However, when I came here, I heard from the man that old man Sun and his theaters have opened all over Qing'an Mansion. It seems that the profits brought by the theater are more than he imagined. There is so much surplus.
He doesn't need so much money for the time being. If there is no accident, the perfume business that he cooperated with Li Xuan and His Royal Highness in the capital should be booming now. Not much use.
I thought it would be easier to clean up when I came back, but I didn't expect that with such a diligent nephew, Li Yi could lie down and sleep when he returned to the room. I happened to come across an inn, and sometimes I could only sleep in the wild. Later, Li Yi simply made a few simple tents, but how could tents be as comfortable as sleeping in bed
Even the quilt was freshly dried, he even took off his clothes, shoes and socks lazily, and lay down directly on it.
After two months of turbulence and wandering, there were very few such moments of comfort. After a while, he fell into a deep sleep.
When he opened his eyes again, the exhaustion accumulated in these days was gone. He walked out of the room and found that the sky was getting dark.
Yang Liuqing practiced swords alone in the courtyard. Although Miss Liu Er still did not officially acknowledge this apprentice, she would teach her two moves from time to time before.
So Li Yi picked up a cheap nephew for nothing.
Although his master uncle's ability may be about-well, Li Yi admits that he can't beat Yang Liuqing, but who made him have a powerful sister-in-law
For Yang Liuqing, Li Yi still has some appreciation or even admiration in his heart.
Among the people he knew, in terms of persistence and hard work, if she was second, no one could be called number one.
During the days when Miss Liu Er didn't agree to accept her as an apprentice, she came here to clean up early in the morning and left in the evening. Far surpassed Li Yi himself, even inferior to Miss Liu Er.
Perhaps this is also one of the reasons why Miss Liu Er changed her original intention.
Seeing Li Yi coming out of the room, Yang Liuqing hurriedly stopped, and said, "Master and uncle are back to Liuye Village, let me tell you when you wake up."
Li Yi nodded, indicating that he knew.
Liuyezhai is the place where Ruyi and the others grew up. Of course they have to visit this time when they come back. Even Xiaohuan has mentioned it countless times along the way. I am afraid that there will not be so many opportunities to come back in the future. On the way here They agreed that this time they would go back to the village for a few days.
Liuye Village carried too much weight for them. This was the childhood memory of the three sisters, and Li Yi didn't plan to join in the fun.
After sleeping for a long time, he was a little hungry, so he planned to go out to find something to eat.
He used to walk the road from the house to Ruyifang habitually, and now it is no exception. Ruyifang is not open, and Li Yi does not plan to cook by himself. He enters from the entrance of Washi next door and walks to a certain In front of a courtyard door, he found that the door was only ajar. Li Yi pushed the door lightly and entered. There was a faint light from the inner room. He was going to go in, but suddenly he sniffed as if he smelled something. The next moment, an expression of surprise appeared on his face.
Instead of going straight, he turned around and entered a small room next to him. After entering, he realized that this was the kitchen. At this time, the sky was getting darker. Although it was not completely dark in front of him, it was still difficult to see things clearly.
Fortunately, what Li Yi was looking for was not difficult to find. Following the smell, he opened a food box on the table, and the long-lost familiar smell immediately became stronger.
Osmanthus cake, just like Qing's osmanthus cake, Li Yi will never forget the taste.
His stomach was already a little hungry, so he couldn't wait to pick up one piece, then the second piece, the third piece, the fourth piece...
At this time, Li Yi, who was focusing all his attention on the food in front of him, did not realize that a delicate figure had quietly come behind him.
Looking at the black shadow in the kitchen, the girl showed a terrified expression on her face, tightly holding the wooden stick in her hand, and quietly approached the shadow.
There are thieves!
This is the first feeling in her heart!
Come in without saying hello, sneaky and don't know what to do in the kitchen, who else can it be if it's not a thief
As long as she yells a few times, someone next door will hear and rush over to arrest this little thief and send him to the government. However, before that, she has to teach this bold guy a lesson.
Finally walking up to the black shadow with her back turned, the girl gritted her teeth, raised the wooden stick in her hand, and swung it fiercely at the little thief!
