Chapter 73
Lian Fangzhou was more than half relieved. Originally, she was worried that the concierge of the big family would look down on people with eyes on the forehead. She was already ready to go bankrupt, but she didn't expect to meet someone kind.
"Excuse me, is the young lady of your house here? I'm here to find her! Please let me know!" Lian Fangzhou smiled politely.
"Little brother, please do me a favor!" Jian reached out and handed a piece of silver half a tael into the porter's hand.
The concierge was familiar with this kind of thing, and only rubbed his hand to estimate how much it was. He glanced at the three of them in surprise: Seeing that they were dressed in ordinary clothes, they were quite generous!
"Looking for our young lady? I don't know who this girl is from our young lady? What's the matter? Our young lady is busy, but not everyone is willing to meet!" The porter said.
Lian Fangzhou is a little hard to say, saying that he is a relative of the young lady, and he will surely get a surprised look or a roll of eyes, right?
"You said, the people from the Lian family in Dafang Village, Yuhe County, your young lady, should know about it!" Lian Fangzhou laughed.
"Yuhe County?" The concierge's eyes lit up and smiled: "Our young lady's hometown is also from Yuhe County, but I have never heard of the Dafang Village Lianjia! Okay, I will ask someone to help you spread the word! If the young lady can't see me, I won't dare to pack a ticket!"
"It's natural, I'm grateful for helping us spread the word!" Lian Fangzhou laughed again.
"Then wait!" The porter saw that Lian Fangzhou was speaking politely and felt comfortable listening, so he smiled and closed the door and asked the old woman at the second door to help pass the message.
The three of them waited for more than a quarter of an hour, and there was still no movement inside. Lian Ze whispered, "Sister, can't we wait? The porter won't lie to us, right?"
"It's all coming, of course you have to wait! Otherwise, it would be a waste of time!" Lian Fangzhou said.
Ah Jian said: "Don't worry too much, doesn't it mean that the young lady of the Su family is in charge of a lot of Su Mansion's business? In this case, she should go out often. If she can't get in, we will wait outside and we will always be able to wait!"
"Yeah!" Lian Fangzhou warmed his heart, nodded and smiled at A Jian.
Just as he was talking, the door opened with a squeak. In addition to the doorman, there was also a middle-aged woman wearing a jujube red robe with dark patterns and narrow sleeves, a long azurite skirt, a flat bun, and a silver hairpin.
The concierge pointed to the middle-aged woman and smiled: "You are lucky, this is Ma Li next to the young lady!"
"Hello Ma Li!" Lian Fangzhou smiled and nodded at her.
Li Ma had already looked at them several times, and saw that although the clothes they were wearing were ordinary and half-old, they were clean. Not the slightest hint of servility or flattery.
Li Ma nodded secretly in her heart, and then smiled: "I heard that the girl is from the Lian family in Yuhe County? I don't know who the girl is, Liu Sumei, Liujiazhuang, Damao Town?"
Lian Fangzhou's eyes dimmed slightly, and he said, "That's my mother."
"So that's the case!" Li Ma smiled and said, "So the girl is our young lady's cousin! Is Mrs. Lian all along? Our young lady is thinking about it!"
Lian Fangzhou smiled bitterly: "My mother... has passed away!"
Li Ma changed her color slightly and gave a low "ah", and hurriedly asked: "When did this happen?"
Lian Fangzhou said: "Just over half a year ago, she and my father were working in the mountains, and the flash flood broke out, and both of them died!"
Li Ma sighed softly and sighed, thinking in her heart why she would come to the door! Look at them neatly and cleanly, even more difficult.
He led them to a hall and sat down, and then ordered the little girl to serve tea and snacks, and smiled: "Please wait here for a while!"
Lian Fangzhou nodded at her and smiled, without asking any further questions. She knew in her heart that she must have gone to report to Sister Report.
Maybe this cousin didn't plan to see them before, just thought they were here to fight the autumn wind, and it was the same for Li Ma to deal with it, but when she heard that her parents were gone, she must have met.
Sure enough, after a while, Li Ma still came out and said with a smile: "This son, let's have a tea break here, Miss Lian, son Lian, come with me! The young lady wants to see you!"
"Go, I'll wait for you here!" Ah Jian said.
Lian Fangzhou and Lian Ze nodded in agreement, said "you have to work" and went with Li Ma.
After entering the second gate and walking for a while, Li Mafang led them into a courtyard. Yingmen is a spacious patio, paved with blue bricks, and there are several large blue and white water tanks on both sides of the road in the middle. I want to come to the summer when the lotus and green leaves are very beautiful. There are several pomegranate, gardenia, lilac and other over-the-top flowers and trees planted on the flat ground, and the bottom is built with square bricks. On both sides are the Chaoshou veranda, the eaves of the corridor are hung with octagonal palace lanterns decorated with tassel, and roses are planted along the corridor. At this moment, some pink and yellow flowers are blooming.
The whole courtyard is spacious and atmospheric. There are moon gates on the left and right sides that cross the courtyard one after another. Looking at the flowers and trees, the rockery is stacked, and there are countless houses.
Passing through the courtyard, going up the steps and passing through the hall, across the courtyard is a large five-bay house with a height in the middle and a little short on both sides. Li Ma led them around from the operator's porch on the left, and said with a smile, "You guys are here today. The young lady just got up from a nap and hasn't gone out yet!"
There were originally three or four little girls wearing blue robes and long white silk dresses standing at the door with their hands down. When they saw them coming, one of them opened a dark green curtain and went in to report. The three of them greeted them and shouted, " Madam Li!"
Li Ma responded, and the little girl who went in to report has already come out, and said with a smile: "Aunt Li, Young Madam asked you to lead the guests in!"
"Miss Lian, Young Master Lian, please!" Li Ma raised her hand with a smile.
"Aunt Lao!" Lian Fangzhou smiled, and Lian Ze followed behind her.
As soon as I entered, I saw a beautiful young woman wearing a peach red brocade brocade robe with broken branches and grapes pattern, and a crimson brocade pleated skirt, surrounded by maids, with almond eyes and peach cheeks, and her skin was brighter than snow. , The cloud bun is slanted, the bead is swaying, and it looks very beautiful. The light in his eyes is flowing, like a shimmering lake, and at a glance, you can tell that he is a powerful person.
Lian Fangzhou was hesitating about whether to call "Mrs. Su Shao" or "Cousin Fang", Fang Qing had already stepped forward and held her hand, looked at her and smiled, "You are Fangzhou, right? Do you still remember? Me? When my aunt took you to our house, you were still a little girl! Is this A Ze? I only heard about it from my aunt, but never saw it! She looks like an auntie!"
Lian Fangzhou's heart was hot, and he was a little confused, so he smiled and said, "I was too young at that time, I don't even remember it! It's even more presumptuous to come to bother you today..."
