The caravan stayed in Jiangcheng Mansion, and Hao Sanqian specially sent a carriage to take You Miao to You Mansion in Pei County.
The tea hills along the way were dark green, and the tea farmers were rushing to pick the last wave of winter tea seedlings before the great cold. There are thousands of acres of fertile land and thousands of tea houses. The windows are wide open. You Miao leaned against the window and said proudly to Li Zhifeng: "Look at this The mountains, the land, the river."
"... The trees planted on the mountain, the fish raised in the river, the birds and beasts, the flowers, birds, insects and fish." Youmiao smiled and said, "It's all my family's property, and it's all mine."
Li Zhifeng couldn't help showing a look of surprise in his eyes, nodded slowly, You Miao put a foot on Li Zhifeng's thigh, the carriage stopped, the mist in the tea mountain was beginning to rise, the road that had just rained was very wet, and I breathed in the clear air in the mountains. Compared with the noisy Gyeonggi and the rolling yellow sand in Saibei, this place is a paradise on earth, a paradise.
At noon, the carriage stopped on the side of the road, and the driver asked You Miao to go down to eat, steamed four kinds of tea, two-color fried rice, fried live prawns, and sliced winter snowfish wrapped in eggs and flour and deep fried until Seventy percent is golden and three is crispy, and it melts in your mouth. You Miao is in a good mood after eating a meal.
After being away from home for three years, it has been a long time since I had eaten the good food in Liuzhou. You Miao said to Li Zhifeng again: "When I get home, the food will be much better than this."
Li Zhifeng nodded, holding a sea bowl, squatting in front of the restaurant to eat fish ball noodles, full of umami.
The proprietress served You Miao tea and smiled, "Young Master You hasn't been home for several years."
"Isn't it?" You Miao took the tea cup with a smile. The tip of the hair was floating and sinking in the broken flower porcelain cup, and the tea was full of fragrance. You Miao used to be approachable and handsome. The tea farmer is working as a long-term worker for the You family, and he loves him when he sees him.
But today, the proprietress was a little hesitant to say anything. You Miao was eager to return home, but she didn't check it out. She pointed at Li Zhifeng and said, "This is my guy from the capital. He is sincere."
The proprietress nodded with a smile, and asked, "Master You asked the young master to come home, but what are your orders, does the young master know?"
You Miao thought about it for a while, and said, "It's not for me to marry a wife, or for me to take over the Biyu Tea House, what else can I do?"
Although his father was obsessed with sending him to the capital to study and seek a half-official position, if he changed his mind halfway through and wanted to keep him in Jiangbei, he might not be ignorant. No matter what, it will never increase your rent by a penny, just rest assured."
The proprietress said: "Young master is naturally a nostalgic person. It is also our blessing to be able to follow the young master."
You Miao nodded, the proprietress went out to dry the clothes, sighed, and Li Zhifeng, who was eating noodles, looked up and looked up at her.
After lunch, You Miao ordered the carriage to go back. It was less than ten miles away from Biyu Villa. When he was close to the village, his thoughts overflowed in his heart, and he planned to go all the way back.
The road was wet, and Li Zhifeng said, "Master, I'll carry you."
You Miao was not polite and jumped on his back. Li Zhifeng walked slowly with his back on his back. Some people drove ox carts along the way, and You Miao called him. When passers-by saw You Miao, they all said, "It's Young Master You."
"Young Master You is back—"
"Why don't you take a car?"
You Miao smiled and said, "Go home and have a look."
You Miao's luggage was all robbed, and his belongings were gone. The only property he had was Li Zhifeng. He talked and laughed along the way, until Biyu Villa appeared halfway up the mountain and jumped down to the ground.
It was almost evening, two servants were sweeping the floor and glanced at him from a distance. One servant wanted to go in to report, but the other servant held him and waved his hand.
You Miao finally felt that something was wrong, and suddenly thought of many things that he hadn't thought about before - what kind of statement is this? You have already arrived in Peixian County, and why is there no one at home to pick you up
"Master."
"Master is back."
The two servants bowed their sleeves and saluted, You Miao said, "I'm back, why is no one here to pick me up? Where's Uncle Hu?"
You Miao walked towards the gate, a young servant who was dozing saw that You Miao was coming back, and immediately woke up, and the other two servants stepped forward and kicked him, saying, "You fell asleep! This is! The young master is going home! After speaking, he smiled at You Miao: "This newcomer."
You Miao said, "It's okay, where's the sedan chair? Why didn't you prepare to get off the sedan chair?"
The little servant winked at the other two companions, and several of them looked hesitant, and one of them replied: "If I go back to the young master, the master went out with Da... Da... and... today, and the sedan chair is in the villa, so I will go and order someone to take it off. down."
"Is Uncle Hu there?" You Miao said, "Let him make a sign for this person."
He pointed at Li Zhifeng and said, "His name is Li Zhifeng. It's too cold to let Shi Qi'er come back with him. He's following me."
"Yes." The servants nodded together, and the servant said again, "Young master, this... no luggage?"
You Miao said with a smile: "I was robbed on the road, there is no danger."
The three servants looked at each other, and one suddenly said, "Master, Uncle Hu is going home."
You Miao said, "Go home?"
"Yes." The little servant replied, "I'm going back to my old age, and the house has changed to a housekeeper. The one named Lin Si is the second housekeeper, Uncle Wang, who has also left. Now the newly hired accountant is in charge of the money. come."
Why did the housekeeper change without seeing the letter, and even the accountant was changed. You Miao fluttered her sleeves and said, "Forget it, the sedan chair hasn't come down yet, so I'll go up by myself."
There is a shadow wall standing in front of the gate of the villa. Li Zhifeng, carrying a burden, followed behind You Miao and began to climb the mountain. It is also good to exercise occasionally. At dusk, the fog in the distance has dissipated, and there is a sunset dye between the cirrus clouds. In Phnom Penh, thousands of tea trees in the mountains bathed in the twilight, which made You Miao feel nostalgic for her hometown.
Entering the second gate of the villa, You Miao smiled and said, "I'm back."
Several maids who were fetching water by the well looked at You Miao, and they were all a little apprehensive. After a long time, a maid was blessed and whispered, "Young master is back."
You Miao's heart sank, and she finally knew something was wrong.
"Oh, this is coming back—" The woman didn't arrive, the voice came first, and a woman walked out in an instant, wearing a long pink dress, with a pink flower in her hairpin, and her face was thickly smeared with rouge.
This person is the concubine Ma, the concubine of You Miao's father, You Dechuan, who is called "Aunt Ma" by the servant. After You Miao's mother passed away, she had never seen Aunt Ma gave birth to a boy and a half daughter to You Dechuan, and You Miao, as a first-in-class son, was just polite and didn't chat much when she met her on weekdays.
But at this time, there was another woman standing in front of Aunt Ma, wearing a light-colored azure splendid scarf, a fox fur collar around her neck, a fallen horse bun, and a jasper hairpin on the pendant, with gold inlaid on the pendant. Shaking in the setting sun, refracting the streamer.
Looking at the woman's appearance, she was about fifty years old, with crow's feet on the corners of her eyes, no blush on her lips, and a domineering aura. You Miao only said that there was a female relative at home, but she had never seen this woman before. Opening her mouth to greet her, the woman opened her mouth first.
The woman was not polite at all, and asked Concubine Ma, "This is You Miao?"
You Miao raised her eyebrows, but before you could say anything, Aunt Ma spoke before You Miao.
Aunt Ma looked at the woman and said, "This is our wife, You Miao, according to the rules, you have to call her wife." Then she looked at You Miao with a smile, observing his face.
lady? ! !
You Miao is simply inexplicable. His mother is the Mrs. You who is married to Ming media. How is this going
