Chapter 281 Prince Zheng¡¯s Mansion is a Neighbor Chen Jing moved to Yang Zhizhou¡¯s house and began her journey of working hard in the capital. He has a place to live alone, which is equivalent to having a home. Although the house was lent to him by Yang Zhizhou. Xiwen brought two maids and two nurses to Beijing, which was enough to cope with the situation for a while. She added a lot of expenses and hired four rough women, some of whom were responsible for sweeping the floor, some for washing, and some for cooking. Everything is in order, Chen Jing doesn¡¯t have to worry at all. Chen Jing wrote a brief letter to Wang County. The letter is for Qingyun. Chen Jing asked how the patent medicines in the drug store were doing now; how the business was; whether the sister-in-law and nieces and nephews were in good health; whether there was any trouble over there in Jingzhong Lane, etc. He found Yang Zhizhou and asked Yang Zhizhou to help deliver the letter: "Send it to Wang County urgently." Chen Jing was not qualified to use the post station, so he could not send the urgent letter. Yang Zhizhou can. Yang Zhizhou is of course very happy with any trivial matter. These days, Yang Zhizhou seems to be in a good mood. "Elder Guo, why are you so happy?" Chen Jing asked him. Yang Zhizhou was smiling, but he didn't say anything to Chen Jing. He just said to Chen Jing perfunctorily: "The weather is getting better, so I'm naturally in a good mood." The capital is not like Jiangnan. Even in spring, it is dry and sunny. During the days when Chen Jing was in Beijing, it rarely rained. The so-called "spring rain is as precious as oil" probably refers to the fact that there is very little rain in Beijing. At this time of the year in Jiangnan, it is rainy and wet all day long. If it is sunny for a day or two, I will undoubtedly be very happy. It¡¯s sunny all day in Beijing, what¡¯s it worth? Not rare at all. Chen Jing understood that Yang Zhizhou was perfunctory with him and didn't bother to care. After he gave the letter to Yang Zhizhou. When he was about to say goodbye and go home, Mrs. Yang's maid came out to send a message: "Madam asked, is it Mr. Chen who is here? If it is Mr. Chen, he will definitely leave food." Yang Zhizhou remembered what his wife had told him. Knowing his wife's thoughts, he couldn't help but laugh again. He is indeed in a very good mood today. "Please stay for dinner." Yang Zhizhou said to Chen Jing. Chen Jing was confused and did not refuse. At the dinner table, Mrs. Yang said nothing. They sleep silently, eat silently, and rarely talk at the dinner table. After the meal, tea was served. Then he started talking. Mrs. Yang asked a lot about Chen Jing¡¯s family affairs in Wang County. For example: "How old is your sister-in-law? What is your nephew studying now? Is your niece engaged? There are several maids with whom you live together" It's a bit like checking your household registration. Chen Jing has lived two lives, how can you not hear these words? ?Looking at Yang Zhizhou's suppressed smile, he knew that Mrs. Yang was going to be a matchmaker for Chen Jing. Chen Jing has no plans for her marriage now. A girl I know. There is no suitable one. Chen Jing¡¯s sister-in-law is also looking for Chen Jing, but with no results. His sister-in-law probably thinks that Chen Jing has high standards and wants to find a stunning woman for Chen Jing. "However, most women in the world are ordinary, and those with outstanding appearance are very rare. ???????? Searching and searching, but so far nothing has been decided. "will you go back to Jiangnan in the future and marry a girl from Jiangnan?" Finally. Mrs. Yang turned the conversation to her purpose. "There is no one I like in Jiangnan." Chen Jing said with a smile, "I don't have to go back to Jiangnan." "A woman from Jiangnan is more beautiful than a girl from Beijing" Mrs. Yang tried again. Let¡¯s see if Chen Jing insists on good looks. Chen Jing understood clearly and expressed his position: "Everyone has his own merits. There are many girls in Beijing who are very beautiful" He just wanted to find a beautiful wife. Mrs. Yang smiled. After talking for a long time, Chen Jing left. After he left, Mrs. Yang said to Yang Zhizhou: "He is a character who refuses to give in and insists on finding someone beautiful. You tell me. The fifth girl in Jianninghou Mansion has outstanding character and appearance. How about Pei Yang?" Yang Zhizhou laughed. On the other hand, his wife is sometimes shrewd and worldly. Sometimes too naive. "The Marquis of Jianning asked you to propose marriage to the fifth girl of their family. What you said is that you want to marry our family. Yangji is not a talented man, and he has no fame. How can the Marquis of Jianning be willing to give the girl to him?" Yang Zhizhou laughed. He said, "Don't make Yangji so embarrassed." Yang Zhizhou felt that the Marquis of Jianning asked Mrs. Yang to be a matchmaker for their girl, and the way he said this was because he wanted to get married to Yang Zhizhou's third son. ButMrs. Yang didn't like them, so she deliberately pretended not to understand. She also introduced the people from Jianninghou's mansion to Chen Jing, who had no family background. She undoubtedly gave them a warning and refused Jianninghou's overtures. If it were someone else, Yang Zhizhou wouldn't mind his wife taking advantage of it. But Chen Jing and Yang Zhizhou were not happy. He truly regarded Chen Jing as a friend. You can¡¯t deceive your friends like this. "I have a clever plan." Mrs. Yang said. Yang Zhizhou stopped her with a slightly serious look on his face: "If you really want to be a matchmaker for Yangji, find someone reliable. Don't even think about Marquis Jianning. Although Yangji is young, he has a very clear mind. "What doesn't he understand?" Mrs. Yang was also slightly stunned. Seeing her husband's change of expression, she smiled and said: "I'm just kidding. I have several nieces in my natal family who are all staying in the boudoir. I originally wanted to give them to Yang Ji" Yang Zhizhou then relaxed slightly. point. Chen Jing also smiled to herself when she returned from Yang's house. He felt that Mrs. Yang was overzealous and would definitely accomplish nothing in the end. No family known to the Yang family looked up to the current Chen Jing. Where could Mrs. Yang go to propose marriage to Chen Jing? At the same time, it also illustrates a problem: Chen Jing is already twenty years old and has reached the age where he should get married, otherwise others will doubt what is wrong with him. Along the way, Chen Jing was thinking about this. "Next time when Wangxian writes back and Mrs. Yang asks again, she will say that Wangxian has already found someone" Chen Jing thought to herself. His carriage went all the way back to Anfengfang. At the door, Chen Jing got out of the car. He saw someone suddenly coming out diagonally opposite. He is a middle-aged man. A closer look revealed that it was Mr. Xu who was treated by Chen Jing. Mr. Xu was undoubtedly stunned for a moment. "It's Dr. Chen!" Mr. Xu was deeply impressed by Chen Jing. He immediately came back to his senses, smiled and stepped forward to greet Chen Jing, "Are you are you here to see me?" Mr. Xu didn't know how Chen Jing got here. Chen Jing quickly smiled and said, "No, I live here. Do you live here too?" He looked at the door where Mr. Xu came out again. That¡¯s the back door. Chen Jing didn¡¯t go around to the front, so she didn¡¯t know which house it was. "Youyou live here?" Mr. Xu was surprised. After looking at Chen Jing a few more times, he said, "This is Yang Guolao's house. Are you a relative of the Yang family?" "Yes." Chen Jing replied. Xu Bing was extremely surprised. He came back to his senses after a while, his eyes were a little more probing, and even a little wary. "You live here?" Chen Jing asked again. Then he thought, probably not. The houses in Anfengfang are marketable but priceless. Ordinary people can't buy it. Yang Zhizhou hinted to Chen Jing that most of the people who could live here were favored nobles and officials of third rank or above. "Ah no, this is the back door of Prince Zheng's Mansion." Mr. Xu came back to his senses and finally managed a smile. Said to Chen Jing. "Oh, I don't know that." Chen Jing smiled. He moved here, but Yang Zhizhou didn't mention Prince Zheng's mansion at all. Chen Jing was the second lieutenant of Prince Zheng's palace and there was such a big misunderstanding. If Prince Zheng's palace lived here, Yang Zhizhou would not give this place to Chen Jing. It is estimated that, like Chen Jing, they have just moved here. "It was just moved the day before yesterday." Mr. Xu has returned to his usual elegance and said to Chen Jing with a smile. "Thank you very much, Doctor Chen, for saving your life last year." Chen Jing smiled and said, "That's right." Then. Chen Jing invited Mr. Xu to his home. Mr. Xu declined and said, "Let's do it another day." Chen Jing did not force herself, and greeted Mr. Xu and went home first. Mr. Xu also walked out of the alley. He did not go back, but went around from the front to the front door and then to Prince Zheng's Mansion. He found Princess Jiahe. He briefly told Princess Jiahe about his encounter with Chen Jing. "What?" Princess Jiahe was quite shocked. "He moved to Anfengfang? How could he?" "That's Yang Guolao's house. I asked him if he was a relative of Yang Guolao. He said yes." Mr. Xu frowned and said, "He is not from Liang Zhejiang. A stranger? Mr. Yang is also from Zhejiang Province. He is probably a distant relative. "What kind of distant relative gave him the house in Anfengfang?" Princess Jiahe said, "I am afraid that Mr. Yang is here." Are there any sisters in your hometown?" She thought Chen Jing might be the son of sister Yang Zhizhou.??Or grandson. Mr. Xu shook his head. Princess Jiahe sat in silence for a long time. Their house was a gift from Mr. Ou. Mr. Ou used to be a third-rank official. His hometown was a big landowner. His family was rich and he bought the house here. Last year, Mr. Ou also retired from office, so he moved to a place far away from the imperial city, leaving this house empty. Now that I have become an official, I always want to be more pure. If you live in Anfengfang, it is impossible to have a peaceful life. Prince Zheng¡¯s Mansion has just returned to Beijing, and they need to be close to the imperial city. Mr. Ou is a close confidant of Prince Zheng, so he took the initiative to give up this house, and people from Prince Zheng's palace moved here. Because of the many chores involved in moving, I haven't gotten the door plaque yet. "I already have a plan in mind." After a long while, Princess Jiahe said to Mr. Xu, "Five days later, my father, eldest brother, and third brother will return to Beijing. It happens that I have free time tomorrow, so I will visit him in person to test his tone. " Mr. Xu said yes. Princess Jiahe sent Mr. Xu away with deep thoughts. ¡°If we knew that Chen Jing would come to the capital again, we really shouldn¡¯t have asked him to see a doctor in the first place. He must remember the people from Prince Zheng¡¯s mansion. After pondering for a long time, Princess Jiahe went in and told her mother about the matter. Princess Zheng was shocked and said, "I told you to be careful along the way, why did you still get into these things?" Princess Jiahe told Princess Zheng about Xu Bing's illness. Prince Zheng frowned slightly. After pondering for a while, she said to Princess Jiahe: "In this case, tomorrow you take your fifth brother to visit Dr. Chen; I will visit Mrs. Yang to test the tone of the Yang family." Princess Jiahe said yes. Seeing her daughter's worried look, Princess Zheng smiled softly, held her hand, and said: "This time your father and brother returned to Beijing, others may not know what happened, but Yang Zhizhou must know it. He has offended us, he What's the benefit? The Yang family will keep it a secret for us, so you don't have to be so worried." Princess Jiahe said. The next day, she took her brother to Chen Jing's house as a guest. They all kept this matter from the Second Lieutenant. *(To be continued)
