Concubine Raiders Chapter 28: Sister (Part 1)

　　 Eleven Niang got out of the carriage with the eldest wife, and found herself standing in front of a black and gray tiled hanging flower door. The coachman who was driving the horse, the nursing home that accompanied him, and the horse pulling the cart were all gone. Only a few women in bright blue jackets and green shirts were graciously coming forward to greet the lady.

　　Tao’s mother intentionally introduced one of the tall, oily-skinned women in their 30s to Mrs. Tao: "This is the family of Li, who is in charge of driving in the house."

　　 "Mother Li." The old lady smiled politely and nodded to the woman. Mother Xu had taken her purse and came out to reward her.

　　 Everyone smiled and accepted the purse and thanked the eldest wife for the reward, so Mother Tao accompanied the eldest wife on the steps of the Chuhua Gate.

　　 Wu Niang and Eleven Niang unhurriedly followed the eldest wife, and heard Mother Li, who was beside her, laughed and said: "...Our wife is talking about her in-laws every day. Yesterday I got a letter and said you come. At noon, I will tell the servants to drive off the car and get ready..."

　　While they were talking, they had entered the Shuhua Gate and saw three small green oil trucks lined up in front of the oncoming wall shadows used to travel in the inner courtyard.

　　 "Mother Li bothered!" The big lady smiled and socialized with her, and then mother Xu got into the carriage that parked at the front.

　　"The two young ladies, please get in the car too!" Mother Tao looked at Wuniang and Shiyiniang with a slight smile, "Let her wait in a hurry."

　　Wuniang and Shiyiniang both smiled and nodded to Mama Tao, and then got into the petrol car like a big lady.

　　 Compared with the simple and unpretentious outside, the interior is exquisite and gorgeous.

　　 The car curtain is hung with an embroidered belt embroidered with colorful glass beads into a cloud pattern, the four corners are hung with red woven gold sachets, and the bright blue brocade front pillow and cushion are embroidered with moon-white plum blossoms...

　　 Wintergreen looked straight and hugged the pillow in his arms: "Miss, it’s the stitch embroidery of Xianling Pavilion... Master Jian’s original owner..." She was already a little excited and speechless. Then, shock flashed across the face of Amber sitting by the side—the embroidery embroidered by Xianling Pavilion with folded needles was the same as double-sided embroidery. It was hard to find a lot of money. Unexpectedly, Xu's family used to decorate the Qingwei small Oil truck...

　　Eleven Niang didn't take another look.

　　 She has always felt that anything that can be bought with money is not really precious!

　　Because there are no outsiders, Eleven Niang unscrupulously opened a thin slit in the car curtain and peeked out.

　　 A sturdy woman pulled the mule out, hurriedly set the cart with her hands and feet, and then patted the mule’s neck gently, the mule had to go around the shadow of the wall, and the mule was covered with loose pine on both sides The green brick road with cypress.

The 　　 carriage walked for about two cups of tea, then turned a left corner and got onto a lane.

　　 is surrounded by high white walls on both sides. From the perspective of Eleven Niang, there is a feeling of endlessness.

　　 After a while, she realized that every time the carriage walked a certain distance, she would encounter a square bluestone lamppost standing against the wall.

　　 This kind of lamppost, she once read in books, is usually used in royal palaces or squares-because it requires a lot of pine oil to light it, and pine oil is expensive, not to mention, it is very rare It is not something you can buy with money. Even if it can be bought, it is a very staggering expense to use it year after year.

　　 Did the Xu family really light these lampposts as street lights at night?

　　 Eleven Niang could not help but leaned forward, trying to see if there are any traces on the lamp post...

　　 "Miss, don't let the women with the car see it!" Holly reminded her quietly.

In addition to a woman in charge of the mule in the 　　 Qinghua oil truck, there is also an older woman standing next to the car window and following the car—this arrangement was originally designed to let the people in the car have trouble calling. But everything is pros and cons, and people who follow the car can easily find out if the person in the car lifts the curtain and looks out...

　　Eleven Niang looked at the red gold-inlaid tourmaline hairpin that was clearly visible on the car woman’s head outside the car window, smiled and lowered the curtain.

　　 Holly looked at him and he was relieved.

　　 Eleven Niang could not help laughing at her: "A plum blossom pillow will shock you?"

　　"Miss, this is not the time to tell a joke." Holly sighed, "You don't know. Auntie and grandma are a piece of the old lady's treasure. I hold it in my mouth for fear of melting, and hold it in my hand for fear of falling . If you do anything to your aunt and grandma, madam..." She stopped talking.

　　 "I know!" Eleven Niang quickly promised, "I just sit still!"

　　Holly couldn't help showing a sweet smile.

　　 She knows that as long as the lady promises, she will do it!

　　Eleven mothers looked at her, but her heart was aching.

　　 People around her are very upset about this meeting with Yuanniang, right? Otherwise, how could you be so worried!

　　 Thinking of this, she glanced at Amber sitting next to Holly—she hadn’t spoken since getting in the car.

　　 Kohaku's expression looked calm.

　　 Maybe when everyone is together, there are lengths and shorts, and the feelings are different, so she doesn't worry about gains and losses like Holly!

　　 Eleven Niang smiled self-deprecatingly, she swept her eyes, but saw the veil that was crumpled by amber.

　　

　　 The monotonous and icy mule hoof sound suddenly stretched time.

　　 After not knowing how long it took, the carriage turned to the left, and then stopped after about half a stick of incense.

　　 should have arrived at Yuanniang’s residence...

　　 Eleven Niang thought, the woman with the car said gently through the curtain of the car window: "Miss in-law, here it is!"

　　 Amber responded with a "get it", and then the cat hit the curtain, and saw that the woman with the car had put the footstool in place. She stepped on the footstool and got out of the car, then turned to serve the eleven mother and got out of the car .

　　They stopped in front of a barbarian door with a slab-like staircase. The tall stone lion was standing on the threshold in a naive manner. The slightly anxious figure of the old lady disappeared at the door with the support of Xu's mother.

　　 Xi Niang was a little surprised, and felt a little fussy.

　　 After all, their mother and daughter haven’t seen each other in more than ten years...

The thought of 　　 flashed, and she was already sweating through her back.

　　Since the longing is so strong, why didn’t Yuan Niang go to Ermen to greet her mother... Can it be understood that her body is so weak that if she goes to Ermen to meet her mother, it will have very bad consequences... So, She can't...

　　 Thinking of this, Eleven Niang's eyes fell on the stubborn steps.

　　 lay obliquely under the eaves of the door... If the high threshold is lowered, the carriage can go in from outside the door...

　　 She saw Wu Niang taking Ziwei and Ziyuan into the barbarian gate, then she calmed down and followed with Holly and Amber.

　　There is a hallway facing you. There are hand-made verandahs leading to the hallway on the left and right. The courtyard is covered with bluestone tiles. At the entrance of the hall, at the four corners of the hand-shou veranda, there are maids in pretty blue jackets and green suits, standing with their hands hanging down and holding their breath. Seeing Wu Niang and Eleven Niang, the maid bowed her knees and gave a blessing ceremony.

　　 Eleven Niang followed Wu Niang into the hall from the hand-shoveling veranda on the right.

　　The west hall of the hall is decorated with dark lacquered furniture such as the nave, the long case, the chair of the grand master, the coffee table, etc., which has become a hospitality place. The middle and east are empty and nothing is placed.

　　 went out of the hall, and did not see the big lady and the others. What they faced was another courtyard. There is a five main room with a penthouse on the front, and three wing rooms with a penthouse on both sides, which are connected by a chaotic corridor to form a circular corridor. The yard is paved with a blue brick and cross-yong road, with a small tall pine tree in the four corners.

　　 Seeing Wu Niang and Eleven Niang coming out of the hall, under the eaves of the house, the maids wearing pretty blue jackets and official green suits bent their knees and bowed their blessings.

　　Eleven Niang heard Wu Niang sigh softly—very sad.

　　 Are you feeling for yourself or Yuanniang?

　　 "Miss in-law, here!" Mama Tao might have found that they hadn't followed, so she turned around to find them, and stood in front of the penthouse in the main room and waved to them.

　　 The two hurriedly walked over from the hand-shoulder veranda on the right.

　　 "Madam lives in the back yard." Mother Tao explained to them with a smile, and then led them through the dark corner door next to the penthouse into the third yard.

　　 The third entrance yard is the same as the second entrance yard. There are five main rooms with penthouses and three wing rooms with penthouses. The yard is also paved with blue brick cross-yong roads, but the northwest corner is made of Taihu stone. There are a few holly trees planted in the southeast corner of a rockery. Compared with the coldness of the last yard, this yard feels much more alive.

　　 Wu Niang and Shi Yi Niang followed Mama Tao from the hand-picked veranda on the right to the front door of the main house. The little maid standing by the side had already lifted the curtain affectionately. Seeing them approaching, she shouted with a smile on her face. "Miss in-law".

　　 Wu Niang and Eleven Niang nodded at the little girl with a smile, and entered the main room.

　　 The ground is covered with smooth golden bricks, brightly colored decorations are painted on the Chengchen, and five-horned palace lanterns are hung. A picture of Guanshiyin sitting down in the middle hall. In the middle of the long case is a three-legged censer made of cloisonné enamel. The smell of sandalwood is curling up from the censer~IndoMTL.com~The left side of the long case contains a foot-high red sandalwood. On the right side is a cerulean glazed flower goblet of Ru Kiln.

　　Eleven mothers couldn't help being stunned.

　　 looked east again. A floor-to-ceiling cover made of red sandalwood and a beautiful blue curtain hung. In the middle of the second room, there is a multi-treasure grid. What copper enamel flower baskets inlaid with sapphire, blue and white porcelain plum vases, Qishou Changchun white stone bonsai, and green land Set of purple flower glass bottles...

　　 looked west. Twelve red sandalwood inlaid ivory flower mirrored glass fans, four in the middle are open, you can see a red sandalwood edge inlaid five-hundred arhats separating the west room and the west room.

　　 Eleven Niang could not help holding her breath.

　　 is so... luxurious!

　　If it were just luxury, she would not be surprised. The problem is that it was in stark contrast to the simple blue bricks and gray tiles she saw along the way.

　　 Especially the fan fan with red sandalwood inlaid with ivory flower mirrored glass. There are red-gold peony flowers floating in the sapphire blue glass. The dazzling color is almost suffocating.

　　 Thinking of this, she couldn't help but glance at Wu Niang.

　　 Wu Niang still has a decent smile on her face, but the smile is already somewhat reluctant; her figure is still straight, but the straight is a little stiff... It looks like she has received a small blow!

The day will not increase. I hope to sum up the experience and lessons of the first two novels, and try to write a work that is not too flawed! Please also understand this decision. Thank you!
