BXBX NOVEL Chapter 1716 Outsider Neighbor
A few maids and servants were assigned to guard the i
er courtyard and to listen to Shen He and Shen Zhou's instructions.
He did these things conveniently, as he had done in the past.
Shen He and Shen Zhou accepted it very well.
This was what he had accepted in his previous life.
As members of the Wealthy Class, which one of them wasn't a bunch of servants?
Wen Jian Qing could not stay here for long.
At di
er, only Shen He and Shen Zhou were having di
er together.
The two of them described in detail the problems they faced during this half year.
The two of them speculated on their chances of coming to this world.
Shen Zhou said, "From the looks of it now, I feel more and more that coming to this world together with me is not a coincidence at all. It is very likely to be one of the traps designed."
Shen He hugged her Instant Blast Tea, and said with furrowed brows: "I also have that suspicion. But there was no evidence. If only your brother-in-law was here. "
Qiao Er's intelligence was acknowledged by the whole world.
And he was the most careful.
Perhaps he could find different traces.
Two days later, the neighbor next door finally came to visit.
At first, Shen He thought that the one visiting would be Master Cao, who had returned to the capital to report, but in the end, it was the Guo Family's woman!
This Lord Guo who was chased to the outer city by the i
er city really had a big heart!
Even now, he still did not forget to gossip!
Right, this Madam Guo was not an ordinary gossiper.
When she saw that Shen He's house only had two little masters, Shen He and Shen Zhou, her heart of gossip burst into flames.
Shen He was also confused as to why this Madam Guo liked to gossip with him.
It was only after a long time that Shen He found out that this Madam Guo had completely gossiped about the people in the alley, and finally found him.
However, Shen He also wanted to find some dry goods from this Madam Guo's mouth, so she politely welcomed her and served her some hot tea and melon seeds.
"I heard that Madam Guo is related to royalty in the i
er city. Why is she still living in the outer city?" Shen He played the fool.
She didn't like people like Madam Guo who couldn't talk too much.
Sure enough, Shen He asked this straightforwardly. Madam Guo's face was full of satisfaction, and when she opened her mouth, her mouth blew open to say: "Aiya, this kind of thing, it's really fate! Our family's Old Guo is indeed a royal relative! The elder cousin of our family, Guo Guo, is a cousin of the present elder princess' consort, Master Consort Ma. You know the Eldest Princess, right? "
Shen He nodded.
"Do you know about Prince Consort?"
Shen He shook her head.
"Aiya, let me tell you, that year, this princess had taken a fancy to Prince Consort Ma at first glance. At that time, Prince Consort Ma and a group of princes and princes had ridden the horses and coincidentally met the Grand Princess. Unexpectedly, after the Eldest Princess followed them back, everyone in the family recognized her and their entire family fell to their knees. After that, today was the wedding day. The Prince Consort had become a princess just like that. The Prince Consort's cousin also borrowed the momentum of the shareholders to climb up the steps into the Duke of Lin's mansion. His relationship with the Duke of Lin was extraordinary, and he even fought alongside the Duke of Lin to become the eighth prince. In the end, the eight kings were defeated. The three kings ascended the throne, so all eight kings and one series were suppressed. Our family's Old Guo was implicated and her rank of a third rank official dropped to fifth rank. Since we can't live in the i
er city like that, then there's nothing much to live in in the i
er city anyways. It's better if the outer city gets lively and we move out. "
Shen He, "..."
This Madam Guo is indeed talented!
How could such a thing happen!
No wonder he was able to lead a comfortable life, no matter where he is, he can enjoy it.
However, Shen He agreed with Madam Guo's words.
Speaking of liveliness, it was indeed the liveliness of the outer city.
The size of the outer city was about half the size of Beijing, but with a population of just over two million, the comfort level was very high!
Of course, this was also related to the fact that there were no tall buildings here!
But anyway, there are no traffic restrictions here, right?
There's no rush hour here, right?
There's no smog or dust storm here, right?
So as long as you have money, these days are very comfortable!
It made sense for Madam Guo to be open-minded!
Although Lord Guo was of the fifth rank and received a small salary, his welfare was good!
A fifth rank Beijing official was different from the fifth rank officials outside.
The benefits of the capital's fifth rank officials could already match their salary and income!
Moreover, he moved out from the i
er city. Although the wealth accumulated over the years could not be luxurious, there was absolutely no problem for him to live a rich life with money, land, and resources.
He was only being demoted, not beheaded.
Sooner or later, he would be able to turn the situation around.
Shen He felt that Madam Guo's happiness was justified.
After finishing the gossip, Shen He asked the noble about the things that happened.
To be honest, Madam Guo really did know. She picked up a handful of melon seeds and started enjoying the ladies and ladies of the House of the Duke of Eight Trigrams, the concubines of the nobles of the House of Eight Trigrams, and so on.
Shen He thought about it, this Madam Guo also had sources of gossip.
Master Guo was sent to the outer city, but the rest of his relatives did not leave the i
er city!
Thus, Madam Guo could still go to the i
er city to visit her relatives. Going there was just to gossip!
Thus, the gossip in the i
er city was spread out through Madam Guo's mouth.
This Madam Guo really could chat. She didn't feel satisfied talking until the evening, so she made an appointment with Shen He to continue the gossip tomorrow.
Afterwards, Madam Guo came for three days straight.
Shen He also listened to the gossips for three whole days.
Shen Zhou began to doubt life.
The matters of the royal family and the nobles were no different from those of the common people outside!
The emperor's eldest wives were also fighting, and the noblemen's wives and concubines were also fighting for the favor. On the surface, the young ladies and gentlemen were very arrogant, and were secretly gossiping.
This is no different from the future generations.
With the help of Madam Guo, Shen He quickly blended in with the local environment and got along relatively well with her neighbors.
On this day, Madam Guo came over excitedly to continue gossiping with Shen He. Of course, she also came to eat melon seeds since they were extremely fragrant.
"Shen He, let me tell you, I just returned home and heard an interesting thing." Madam Guo cracked melon seeds as she said, "Yesterday, the Crown Princess held an elegant poetry gathering. It was said that the His Royal Highness was there as well. During the poetry meet, many of the beauties almost fought a fight to gain the attention of the His Royal Highness, while another person fell into the lake. "
