Ren Yaoqi left home after breakfast in the Lin family. Today she is going to visit her grandparents in Baoping Hutong.

The affairs of Lei's family had already started. When Ren Yao's carriage was on the way, even ordinary peddlers and servants were talking about it.

She is not surprised by the decision made by the Lei family owner, because the Lei family has no choice now.

If Mrs. Leitai's identity problem is not solved in time at this time, the troubles of Leitai's family will only become more and more serious.

"Miss, the Baoping alley is just ahead of us. The old lady sent aunt Yihong to wait at the entrance of the Hutong." Celery put down the curtain and turned to report to Ren Yaoqi.

When King Xian came to Yanbei from Kyoto, because Yanbei was a place that the imperial court could not supervise, and the arrangements made by the imperial concubine before her death, the imperial court could not send people to take care of it. Under such circumstances, Empress Dowager Yan would not arrange accommodation for King Xian. Therefore, when the Xianwang family first arrived in Yanbei, they lived in a deserted and dilapidated temple for some time.

Fortunately, Duke Zheng, who was next to Princess Wan, brought people to find him. At the same time, he also brought the money prepared by the imperial concubine in the early morning. In addition, there were many betrothal gifts offered by her husband's family. In order to let Li's family get married, Princess Xian bought a big house in the Baoping Hutong.

Although the price of the old houses is not high, it's not the old houses that have been renovated for a long time.

Ren Yaoqi lifted the curtain and looked at it. The lane where the carriage came in was not wide, but it allowed two or three carriages to run in parallel. On both sides of the alley are the Manzi gate and Ruyi gate, which are mostly closed. Some of the doors are also equipped with horse binding stones or stone lions.

Ren Yaoqi understood the reason why the Xianwang family chose the house here. There were many people who followed the Xianwang family. These people had to have a place to settle down, so the house should be large, but the place where the king Xian lived could not be too publicized.

Guixifang, including Baoping Hutong, is a chain of alleys extending in all directions. The alleys look orderly, but actually they are very complicated. It is convenient to escape in case of emergency.

However, Ren Yaoqi found that the alleys were very quiet. Many yards were planted with pomegranate, peach and gardenia trees against the wall, which also stretched out of the wall. It's not as noisy and messy as those mixed alleys, but a peaceful and peaceful atmosphere is revealed everywhere.

Although the people living here are ordinary people, but because it is close to Yunyang academy, the largest Academy in Yanbei, most of the people living here are the family members of teachers and students who teach in Yunyang academy, or the merchants who operate calligraphy and painting shops and brush and ink shops around.

The carriage stopped in front of a golden pillar gate with front eaves, which was obviously higher and more imposing than those seen before. If you ignore the stone lion with half an ear missing and the red paint on the gate.

Generally speaking, carriages enter and exit from the side door or corner door, but the side lanes on both sides of the house are very narrow, which makes it inconvenient for the carriage to enter and exit. Therefore, Ren Yaoqi could only get off the bus from the main gate, and then let the carriage drive to the back door to enter the yard. As for her, she had no reason to go through the back door.

The mottled red lacquer gate was half opened, and Yihong had already bowed down to wait under the steps.

When Ren Yao got off the carriage, she met her and bowed down.

"Aunt Yihong." Ren Yaoqi returned to her and called with a smile.

"Knowing that Miss Biao is coming today, the master has been waiting for her. Please come with me." Yihong personally helped Ren Yaoqi to enter.

Once around the screen wall, there was a large courtyard. Ren Yaoqi looked around for a week and found that there was no clean figure in the yard.

"It seems very Quiet? " Ren Yaoqi was surprised.

She remembers that the opera troupe of xianwangfu usually practiced basic skills here. Some people sang their voices, some practiced horse steps, and others played broadsword. It was very lively.

Leaning on the red smile: "know you are coming today, the master let them go to the backyard."

Ren Yaoqi remembered that the last time Li took her and Ren Yaohua back to her mother's home. As soon as she entered the door, she saw a lively courtyard. A whip with tassels flew right to Ren Yaohua's front door. Fortunately, she was quick to catch up with her. Although it was a false alarm, Ren Yaohua had a big fire and had a big fight in his grandfather's house. He had to force their grandfather to sell all the "actors" in the yard, and finally broke up in a bad mood.

Later, Ren Yaohua said nothing and refused to enter. Ren Yaoqi originally planned to come with Ren Yaohua when she came to Yunyang city this time. However, she was always evaded by Ren Yaohua. Finally, she came by herself.

After entering the Chuihua gate, although the courtyard is still a bit old, it is still neat. In the gap between the bluestone slabs, one or two clumps of green grass are drilled out, which does not appear disorderly. On the contrary, some lively vitality is added.

There is no rockery, stone carving, no garden, only one ordinary room. However, every time we enter the courtyard, we have planted some flowers and plants, which are not precious varieties. Only the banana, Begonia, pomegranate, and even clusters of Chaoyan flowers can be seen in Yanbei.Princess Xian and King Xian live in the third room. When Ren Yaoqi passed, Rong, Princess Xian, was pruning a broken jasmine flower in the courtyard with a pair of scissors.

"Here you are." Rong raised his head with a gentle smile and handed the scissors to ChuChu behind him.

Ren Yaoqi went to the Rong family to say hello: "my grandfather and uncle are not at home?"

Rong took Ren Yaoqi to the main room: "no matter what they are, they will come back when they have lunch." Rong Shi smiles.

Although Ren Yaoqi didn't come to his grandfather's house many times, he also knew what kind of temperament his grandfather and uncle were. He must be drinking tea or playing crickets outside.

There was no decoration in the main room where Rong lived. The only valuable thing was the pear blossom wood shelf bed, the eight immortals table and the four chairs, which were old. A pair of half height beauty bottles with flowers look very delicate, but they are only made by ordinary folk kilns.

Rong took Ren Yaoqi and sat on the Kang, and ChuChu brought up the tea.

"Yihong?" Rong asked Chu Chu Tao.

Ren Yaoqi took the tea and smelled the smell of bamboo leaf green. Listening to Rong's asking Yihong, he said, "when I came, my aunt prepared some things. I asked aunt Yihong to go to the backyard to clean up."

Because Ren Yaoqi saved Lin Cen, Ren Shijia became more and more close to Ren Yaoqi. When Ren Yaoqi went out today, Ren Shijia ordered her mother to prepare a carriage of gifts, all of which were good ginseng, bird's nest, deer antler and other supplements, as well as some clothes and food that were easy to store. He said that it was not too casual to visit his grandfather instead of his mother. Ren Yaoqi refused, but accepted it.

although Rong was a little surprised, he still said with a smile: "you go back and treat me, thank her."

Ren Yao period should be, Rong said to Chu again: "you go to Xiasheng there to bring those two children over."

It is said that Xia Sheng helped to find the two servant girls. Ren Yaoqi was very interested and asked Rong: "grandmother, what do you think of them? I haven't seen it yet

Rong's gentle way: "I've asked for a talk. The two men are upright and smart. You're going to be a servant girl. It's not enough to know some boxing skills. So I asked Yihong to take them to learn some rules from everyone every day. They are not old enough to teach for a few years, and they will be of great use in the future. "

When Rong said this, Ren Yaoqi was relieved.

After a while, ChuChu came in with two little girls of six or seven years old. Maybe it's because they were practicing martial arts with Xia Sheng. They were wearing gray clothes and trousers, and their cuffs and trouser legs were all tied up.

Both faces were sweaty and red, and their bodies looked stronger than girls of the same age. Xia Sheng said that they were born to perform arts. They must have practiced before.

When they came in, they were trembling. After the ceremony, they knelt on the ground and did not dare to move their heads.

"Why? Look up Ren Yaoqi was surprised to see their faces.

as like as two peas, the two little girls heard their words and dared not to listen. They slowly raised their heads, and they were exactly the same two faces.

"Are they twin sisters?" Ren Yaoqi was a little surprised.

Rong asked them to stand up and speak: "yes, because they are twin sisters, and they live and eat together very closely since childhood. They can not only play the role of each other vividly, but also communicate with each other. That's why Xia Sheng likes them. " Otherwise, Dong Sheng would not have picked the two sisters.

Although I have known Xia Sheng's skills for a long time, Ren Yaoqi is still very surprised to see these two sisters today.

"What are your names?" Ren Yao asked kindly.

The little girl on the right side first opened her mouth and said, "the two maids have no names. They were both called Daya and Erya before. Please give them names to them."

She is a smart girl.

Although Ren Yao's first choice of girls is loyalty, it's not a bad thing to be smart.

Rong said with a smile, "you name them."

The two girls finally raised their heads slightly. Although they did not dare to look at Ren Yaoqi, their bright eyes were full of hope and even seemed excited.

Ren Yaoqi thought: "who is your sister and who is your sister?"

This time, the little girl on the left replied, "the maids don't know who is older and who is younger. We were bought by our parents before we could remember. At the beginning, the master who adopted us always confused us. Therefore, it is not known who is the elder sister and who is the younger sister."

"Then your name is Leshan." Ren Yaoqi pointed to the one on the left and the one on the right, "you're called leshui."

The sister who got the new name knelt down to thank him happily.

Rong said with a smile: "the wise love the water and the benevolent enjoy the mountain. You have such a great name. It's not like a maid's name. "

Ren Yao period propped up his jaw and laughed brightly: "the name is for people, just like it."

Ren Yaoqi asked the two sisters some questions and found that they were not only smart, but also calm and not impetuous. They were more and more satisfied.

Just talking, Ren Yaoqi saw the celery standing at the door and winked at her.Ren Yaoqi said to Rong: "grandmother, can I go shopping in the yard?"

Rong didn't know if she could see the interaction between the two masters and servants. However, she gave a broad smile and said, "if you want to go around, you can follow me."

Ren Yaoqi looked at the two girls and said with a smile, "let them follow. I'll be back when I go. She can't leave people around you."

Yihong is the concubine of Uncle Li Tianyou. On weekdays, the only one who serves Rongshi closely is Chu. There are a few later bought in the small maid, are outside to serve, not close. Only the old people were close to King Xian and Rong.

When Ren Yaoqi came out of his leisurely house, parsley looked at the two servant girls curiously. Seeing that Ren Yaoqi didn't send people away, he continued: "Miss, Apple has brought people. It's coming in through the back door. It's in the backyard."

Ren Yao period nodded, without saying a word, with a few servant girls back to the yard.

In fact, Ren Yaoqi had other things to do when she went out today. For example, she sent apple to go to Zhu ruomei.

Although Zhu ruomei spent most of his time in the Bailong temple, he worked for Xiao Jingxi. Now he has bought a small yard in Yunyang city to take over his mother and sister. Ren Yaoqi got to know his residence from Dongsheng and knew that he was in Yunyang city recently, so he asked apple to invite someone to come and see him.

It's not convenient to see Zhu ruomei in the Lin family, but it's much more convenient to go to the Xianwang site.

The two little maids followed, and the parsley looked back and asked in a low voice, "Miss, are they?"

Ren Yaoqi said: "they are the maids I asked my grandmother to help me find. They should be raised here first."

Xiang Qin didn't understand why Miss Wu had to go through her grandfather's house and didn't bring her back to Ren's, but she was also a servant girl. She didn't ask much about it, so she wisely stopped asking.

However, when Ren Yao was clean, Leshan and leshui were not so lucky. With the help of her status as a big servant girl, parsley began to show her prestige in front of the two little servant girls.

"You are walking too wide. Mammy Zhou saw that you were going to pull your legs!"

"Tut, I want you to step down, not to let you walk slowly. Even if she can't walk well, mother Zhou is not satisfied. "

"Miss Mammy, how can you follow the rules after five weeks! The servant girl around you can't be a servant girl if you want to be one! "

……

Before Leshan and leshui followed Ren Yaoqi, they understood one thing. The maids and sisters around the young lady were very powerful. In addition, there was a mother Zhou who was terrible and terrible. As long as she did something wrong, they would not be allowed to follow her.

The celery girl succeeded in showing off her authority in front of the younger generation, and let mother Zhou bear a bad reputation for her.

When Ren Yaoqi arrived in the backyard, Apple had already led Zhu ruomei to the West Chamber of the backyard to drink tea. When Ren Yaoqi passed, although only apple and Zhu ruomei were in the west chamber with the open door, Chunsheng was sweeping the courtyard with two monkey like children and wrestling.

Ren Yaoqi knew the particularity of xianwangfu, so she could only take people to the backyard. Zhu ruomei can't go any further. Although Chunsheng sweeps the floor in the courtyard, the movement of the back west chamber is always in his eyes.

Until he saw Ren Yaoqi coming, Chunsheng and his two children saluted to Ren Yaoqi from a distance, and then stood a little farther away, but no one was still in the backyard.

I don't know who is practicing opera, singing a section of life and death hate, only listening to its voice can not see the person. With the continuous sound of Erhu Yao Qin. With some ethereal unreal excitement.

Zhu Ruo Mei looked at the tea table with her fingers. She was absorbed in hearing that Ren Yaoqi had come in and got up to salute.

Ren Yaoqi nodded with a smile, indicating that if Mei didn't have to be polite, he sat down on the main seat.

Leshan and leshui consciously stay outside the door as a door god. After a while, parsley doesn't come in. After all, she is the servant girl of the third miss, not the fifth miss.

Ren Yaoqi knew that it was the safest way to speak in his grandfather's house, and he didn't have to worry about anyone who was malicious to eavesdrop. Those who were raised in the xianwangfu were not raised for nothing. Even the people she brought from the Lin family, except those she served personally, were led by the red collar. They did not know where to drink tea and snacks.

"It's as good as the pillars of Dexin class." Zhu ruomei couldn't help but exclaimed that he had just been absorbed in listening. His mother liked to listen to the opera, so she also liked it.

"My grandfather loved it so much that he had a troupe." This is what Yanbei people all know.

The opera troupes of Xianwang's house are more famous than the king himself. It's just that the opera troupe is only singing in the palace of the king, and no one else is blessed to listen to it.

Zhu Ruo Mei also knew that, so Wen Yan just boasted a few words, but didn't ask deeply.

"Miss Wu, why don't you come to me today?" Zhu asked.

Ren Yaoqi nodded: "I have one thing I need your help with."

Zhu Ruo Mei hurriedly said, "Miss, just tell me."

Ren Yaoqi thought for a moment: "I want you to help me find two people, a woman in her seventies and a girl of eight or nine years old. They disappeared from Ren's house in Baihe Town a few days ago.""Missing?" Zhu ruomei is stunned.

"It's really missing. I've asked people to search all over Baihe Town. They just wanted to go out and have a look, but they didn't come back as soon as they went out." Seeing that Zhu Ruo Mei wanted to ask, Ren Yaoqi took the initiative to say, "my wife came here to ask about the origin of Han Yunshan. She should know something about it. So you can help me to find out whether their disappearance has anything to do with the Han family. If it's not the actions of the Han family, then you are afraid to hide."

Zhu ruomei knew that Ren Yaoqi and the Han family had some grudges. He had also done the Han family's business last time, so she was not so surprised after hearing this. She just nodded and said, "I'll find someone right away. Miss Wu, please rest assured that as long as they are still young in Yanzhou, they will be found out."

Zhu Ruo Mei said this with confidence, but Ren Yaoqi was moved in her heart.

If it had been before, Zhu ruomei had absolutely no such self-confidence. Now that he dares to be so sure, things in the temple are going well, and Zhu ruomei may be in charge of the military forces in the temples in Yanzhou or some areas of Yanzhou.

Although he knew that the man in front of him was not a thing in the pool, he was still surprised that he could gain Xiao Jingxi's trust and stand firm in a short time.

Surprise and surprise. Because it means she can be more convenient in the future.

In fact, Ren Yaoqi had thought about taking care of Zhu ruomei's mother and sister before. But later, he thought that if she was like this, no matter whether her original intention was good or not, she would be a villain in in front of Zhu ruomei, a man with a real disposition of love and hatred. Moreover, if Zhu Ruo Mei's relatives are around her, the trust of Zhu Ruo Mei's real master may be affected.

So the Yao period finally insisted on the gentleman's agreement.

"Miss Wu, if you don't have any other orders, I'll go to someone first. Otherwise, when the city gets busy, it will be troublesome to leave the city. " I wish Rumley farewell.

Ren Yaoqi nodded and got up. He said casually, "what's the bustle in the city?"

Zhu Ruo Mei sighed: "Miss Wu must also know that Mrs. Lei's wife has passed away, and the coffin is about to go to the funeral. However, a mountain road at the foot of the poor mountain collapsed early this morning. Now there are all kinds of things to say outside. I've just heard that Mrs. Leitai's Liu family is on the way. After hearing about this, they are going to Yunyang city with their lives. I'm afraid there will be some trouble. "

Ren Yaoqi also knew what was the cause of the bustle outside. After hearing that the mountain road was blocked, the Han family sneered at him.

Let Apple will Zhu ruomei sent out, Ren Yao period will take the maid back to Rong Shi there.

When I heard the news of Lei's family again, it was almost noon for lunch.

Rong Shi ordered the kitchen to prepare a lot of dishes, which were the favorite food of Ren Yao period. I don't know where Rong inquired. However, my grandfather and uncle have not come back yet. Rong said calmly that their grandparents and grandchildren would eat first and leave them a portion, but Ren Yaoqi insisted on waiting.

At this time, Yihong comes in to talk to Rong in a low voice. Ren Yaoqi hears her mention of Lei's family. He can't help but say, "what's the matter with Lei's family?"

Yi Hong looked at Rong Shi and nodded his head. His voice was a little louder: "the people of the Liu family have already entered the city and are going to Lei's house."

At this time, the people of the Liu family have actually arrived at Leifu, and they go straight to the Lingtang after getting off the carriage.

The first one was an old lady about the same age as Mrs. Leitai. She was panting while walking. Her face looked a little pale, just like acclimatization. When she entered the door, she was almost carried in by two strong and strong daughters-in-law, one by one.

As soon as the old lady Liu entered the door, she seemed to wake up suddenly. She began to cry before she could stand still. She cried out of breath, which made people worry about whether she could lift her breath down or not.

"Six elder sister - my poor six elder sister - you died miserably --"

behind her, it looked like a nephew and a nephew and grandson began to cry with her. For a time, the ancestral hall of Lei's family was very busy.

Thunder and thunder brothers heard the news, immediately rushed over.

Liu raised his eyes and cried more fiercely: "six elder sister - you commit crimes - you look at what kind of animals you raise --"

Lei Zhen could not help frowning and stopped: "stop, who are you? What nonsense
