Farming Happiness: Husband, Come and Plough the Fields

Chapter 956: Pretend to



On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Kyoto is sunny, and the winter sun shines on the body, adding a warm smell.

Li Haitang squinted, leaning on the thick cushion of the carriage, drowsy. Kyoto is different from Beidi. During the year, there are still many shops that are open. People come and go, carrying things in their hands to visit relatives and friends. However, in the border towns of Beidi, it is much colder now, and the mountains are blocked by heavy snow. If there is a snow disaster , you have to bring a shovel when you go out

open circuit.

The streets are noisy, and there is no sense of depression in the Northland.

Li Haitang closed her eyes and enjoyed a moment of tranquility.

After coming here for half a year, she has no sense of belonging. She has a house, a Zhuangzi, and a shop in Kyoto, and she is still a passerby.

The prosperity of Kyoto is so out of place, but she is still nostalgic for the warmth of the house where the mountains are covered by heavy snow and the floor is covered with cages.

Although there are many rich people here, there is no human touch.

The carriage went all the way into the area close to the inner city. The Ruan Mansion occupied a small half of the street, with a vermilion gate and gate beasts placed at the gate, which shows that there was also a heyday in those days.

The gate of the Ruan Mansion is not open, all visitors must go through the small gate.

At the entrance of the alley, a corner door is opened, and people usually come to give gifts, just go through the corner door.

Gaomen in Kyoto has its own rules, almost no need for the lords and wives of the mansion to go out in person, give New Year gifts, etc., just find the servants who need to be around to represent themselves.

The side door and the corner door, separated by a long distance, have completely different symbolic status.

Li Haitang stared at the closed front door, guessing in his heart that what Fang Shaoyao said was probably the truth, and the Wang family entered the room again and made a comeback.

"Hey, that big belly at the door, get out of the way!"

The janitor of the Ruan Mansion was arrogant. There is a good saying, the seventh-rank officials in front of the prime minister, although their master is not the prime minister, he is also the mainstay of Daqi, and those who come and give gifts to the door have to look at his face.

If he can do things, give him some benefits, and he will kindly inform him, or he will be responsible for recording without saying a word.

It may take a few months for Mrs. Madam to read the catalog.

The family is busy, giving gifts and other trivial matters to their servants to take care of.

According to the level and thickness of the gift, the gift will be distributed in return.

Generally, those who came to give gifts were mostly to curry favor with the Ruan family, and to speak kindly to him as a servant.

Seeing that the carriage was blocking the road, the gatekeeper hurried out to drive it away. On the first day of the Lunar New Year, leave the gifts behind, and the master and wife will not see any guests.

Li Haitang had already vaccinated himself, and knew the virtues of the Ruan family, so he was not angry at this.

Comparing with inferior people makes me an inferior person, why bother?

"Are you here to give gifts? Present the gifts, register them, and then you can go back."

The gatekeeper glanced at Xiao Lingchuan, and felt that this person was not easy to provoke, his whole body was intimidating, he put away his contempt, and refused to admit that he was frightened by the other party, but he was obviously more polite when he spoke.

"My husband and I came to visit relatives, do we want to open the main door?"

Li Haitang spread her hands, a gift? No, not even a single coin, it would be fine if she didn't come to exploit the Ruan family.

"relative?"

The gatekeeper sneered, tsk tsk, another family came to beat the autumn wind.

Ruan's family is the tallest, and there are always people pretending to be relatives, coming to the door to beat the wind, cheating on food and drinking. In the past, the master and wife didn't care about it, but now it's different, and they don't have time to deal with idlers.

Some people pretended to be false when the master spoke, so there was no need to talk nonsense, and he went directly to the Jingzhaoyi Yamen to report to the officials and find something for Zhang Zheng to do.

Therefore, before Li Haitang knew about it, the Ruan family had already sent someone to report to the Jingzhaoyi Yamen.

The gatekeeper was afraid that the group of people would run away, so he deliberately delayed the time, "You say they are relatives, distant relatives, close relatives, and there are no such people."

"What kind of relative am I, and I have to report to you as a slave?"

Li Haitang laughed, if it wasn't for the Ruan family's last words, it seemed like who would like to come to the Ruan family, the so-called high family is just a group of petty rabble, it's hard to say who will take advantage of who when she comes to recognize her relatives.

Regarding her identity, the Ruan family has no idea?

"I am friends with your young lady."

Li Haitang raised her eyebrows. It doesn't matter if she can't get in now, anyway, sitting in the carriage is very comfortable, and I don't want to see the faces of the Ruan family for the time being.

Now the question is, who is the young lady of the Ruan family?

According to her guess, Zhang Ruyi might not have been recognized.

"Our young lady?"

The gatekeeper rolled his eyes and guessed Li Haitang's identity. In the past, the Wang family lived in seclusion and had no sisters. However, after leaving home for a year, if there are sisters who have a good relationship, then it is unknown.

When the gatekeeper thought about it, he regretted reporting it to the officials, and he said angrily, "Didn't you say that you are a relative of the Ruan family?"

The relatives of the Ruan family and the young lady's sisters, the gap is too big! You can't secretly change the concept, isn't this a joke?

The young lady just returned to the mansion, and she was very beautiful. From now on, she will be the head of the Ruan family. If he offends someone so quickly, he will definitely be replaced in the future, without this lucrative job.

The gatekeeper was very indignant, blushing and thick-necked.

"Your young lady and I are sworn sisters, so aren't they relatives of the Ruan family?"

The gatekeeper changed his attitude again, looking scared, and Li Haitang suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart. If it was Zhang Ruyi, the other party would not be so afraid.

"This... villain doesn't know, our young lady has been away from home for more than a year, and she is making sisters outside, so she won't tell us to be servants."

The gatekeeper replied awkwardly, and Li Haitang instantly understood that he was talking about the Wang family.

"How many young ladies are there in your house?"

Li Haitang couldn't bear it anymore and asked again.

"Oh, let me tell you, do you know the young lady? Our young lady's father is now the secretary of the official department. How many young ladies?"

The Yue family is very powerful, and they still expect to support the Ruan family. At this juncture, they still want to find a woman whose identity is not innocent. Isn't that against the Wang family?

The gatekeeper looked at Li Haitang suspiciously, thinking that this person was here to make trouble.

Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly remembered the new rumors in the house, and frowned, "You can't be Zhang's sister?"

My eldest young master brought home an unknown woman. I heard that she was married, and she was divorced for some reason. A woman who had a miscarriage.

On New Year's Eve, there was a commotion at the dinner table, and the mansion was filled with smog these past few days, and the servants were trembling, for fear that the fire would burn themselves.

"If it's a sister surnamed Zhang, then it's no wonder he has the opportunity to make friends with the young lady. He has to send her to the Jingzhaoyi Yamen as soon as possible!"

Thinking of this, the gatekeeper kept a straight face and said nothing. After a while, the servants came to the door with the official messenger. The leading official knew Li Haitang, and seeing her here, he said in surprise, "Master Li, why did you come to Ruan's house?"
