Chapter 121 If you stay any longer, I won’t be polite
Mei'er is Liu Zhiyue's person, and she is a little worried that Mei'er will brainwash her sister-in-law with gossip.
Xie Jian thought about what Li Hu had said the other day, that Liu Zhiyue had brought Chen Xian to his house. "If my sister-in-law wants to go, then let her go. If she can really enter the Duke's Mansion, she can meet more people."
The next day, the autumn heat continued.
When Shen Heng got up, Xie Jian had already left for the government office.
Xia and Mei'er were talking and laughing.
Seeing her sister-in-law smiling like a flower, Chen Heng knew that Xie Jian had already said to her: "Sister-in-law, I will accompany you to the County Duke's Mansion later." For the interview.
“Madam Shen, I’ll go with you and sister-in-law as well,” Mei’er said affectionately.
When she came here, she still called me a maid, but now she just calls me that. Shen Heng didn't mind. It was probably because her sister-in-law was not used to it and asked Mei Er to change it: "Just look after the house."
Since arriving in the imperial capital, the only place Xia could go was the street where her house was located, and she usually didn't dare to walk around randomly.
She thought the street she was on was prosperous enough, but now she realized that she was short-sighted. Look at the street in front of her, it is so gorgeous that she can't even describe it.
Seeing her sister-in-law overwhelmed, Chen Heng's eyes were filled with smiles. This was one of the four most prosperous streets in Da Cong Dynasty. Carriages were parked on the street, and BMWs were racing. The so-called chirping and laughing were in the willow alleys and flowery streets, and the playing of pipes and strings was done in teahouses and taverns. This was the description of prosperity.
It is indeed a country that has existed for hundreds of years.
Most of the mansions of the noble families of the Da Cong Dynasty were located near these three streets.
At the small gate behind the Duke of Yu's mansion, many women who came to take on errands were waiting. They were all strong and healthy old women in their thirties or forties. In addition to the old women, there were also many men around forty years old, all standing together and chatting.
Looking at it, Xia was actually the youngest one.
"You two are so young, yet you're trying to steal our jobs from us old ladies?" An old woman walked up to Chen Heng and Xia Shi, looking them up and down. "With your small bodies, you're doing rough work here."
"Big sister, we just came to take a look." Chen Heng said with a smile: "Look at all the people, we don't know if we can get in."
"That's true. I heard that the ones mentioned above are all related." The woman kept talking.
In the following time, Chen Heng didn't hear much else, but she did hear a lot of gossip about the Yu County Duke's Mansion. It said that the eldest daughter married a poor boy 10 years ago, and that the boy studied hard for ten years and passed the imperial examination. He was actually favored by the eldest daughter of the county Duke's Mansion. It was really a blessing.
Duke Yu was reluctant to let his daughter suffer in that poor family, so he let her and her husband live in the mansion and said they could stay as long as they wanted.
At this time, a group of people had already entered.
Those waiting started gossiping again.
"What I heard is different from what you heard." A fat woman whispered.
"Don't keep me in suspense. Tell me now, tell me now."
Xia was not interested in these things. Her eyes were glued to the small door. But she saw her sister-in-law coming closer curiously, listening attentively, and she couldn't help but burst out laughing.
