Jinglan Courtyard is located in the northernmost corner of Li Mansion. It is the largest courtyard in the entire Li Mansion except the main courtyard, and it is also the most remote courtyard. It is separated by a wall, which is Ping An Lane. Ma Yulian arranged this courtyard for him, which can be regarded as With good intentions, people can't gossip, but also send him away.
Perhaps in the eyes of others, this is a sign that he is not favored, but in the eyes of Li Yaonan, he is extremely satisfied. The most satisfying thing for him is the corner door on the side of the courtyard, so it is convenient for him to go out and do anything in the future.
When Li Yaonan arrived at Jinglan Courtyard, Nanny Li was instructing her servants to rush around, and when she saw him, she greeted him: "Second Young Master, come and take a look, if you are not satisfied, Madam has put a lot of thought into this yard, look What else needs to be changed?"
Li Yaonan looked around, quite surprised, there are many furniture in the yard, they are actually made of huanghuali wood, Ma Yulian is so generous?
As if seeing his doubts, Nanny Li smiled and said, "This is a dowry from the new husband. The large pieces of furniture have been arranged neatly, and the rest will be brought in on the day of the entrance."
Li Yaonan nodded. He didn't know much about ancient wedding procedures. Anyway, someone would teach them when the time came, so there would be no mistakes.
But where did that weird feeling in his heart come from?
After living two lifetimes, the first time she got married was in ancient times, and she was married to a man. Li Yaonan was so awkward, the slight nervousness in his heart was definitely not his emotion.
I don't know if the new husband can get along well. Although he is not interested in men, he still wants to live together. It can't be too bad, he will let him go free when he leaves Li Mansion in the future.
Yes, Li Yaonan never thought that he would stay in Li Mansion for the rest of his life.
In this era where filial piety comes first, he doesn't want, and doesn't want, to have several mountains crushing his head.
It's just that he has no idea how to leave at present, but people always come up with a way, and he firmly believes that that day will not be too long...
His status in this mansion is really embarrassing. He is worse than the concubine of ordinary rich families. His parents do not separate the family. It would be better to go out of the house than to be unembarrassed like him.
Li Yaonan walked around the Jinglan Courtyard, feeling rather surprised. The Jinglan Courtyard is indeed well furnished, apart from a few expensive decorations, there are famous calligraphy and paintings.
Nanny Li raised her chest and raised her head, with a smug expression on her face, as if all of this was due to her: "What do you think of the second young master? If there is nothing to change, then find a time to move here as soon as possible."
Li Yaonan pointed to the northeast corner of the yard: "Add a small kitchen." In the future, when shopping in the yard, you can go out from the side door and buy whatever you want. Now that he is growing up, he naturally needs to pay more attention to nutrition.
Nanny Li frowned, and said unwillingly: "The expenses in the mansion are all paid for by the big kitchen. If you add a small kitchen here, how would you pay for it? Madam, did you agree?"
Li Yaonan gave her a half-smile, squinted at her, and said calmly: "You can join if you want. Since you respect Madam so much, I will return to her someday. How about I let you serve her by her side?" At that time, the reason why he didn't replace Nanny Li was because he was afraid that his wife would disagree, but if Nanny Li wanted to leave by herself and wanted to curry favor with his wife, so what if he followed her wish.
Mother Li was startled, she didn't know at this moment, what happened in the main courtyard in the morning, otherwise she wouldn't be so presumptuous, even if she looked down on the second young master, she would always have some scruples in her heart.
"The second young master is dissatisfied, so just say it, why bother to use Madam as an excuse, although I am serving you by your side, Madam is the mistress of the house, without her speaking, this small kitchen would never have been built." Madam Li said confidently To retort, she also understood in her heart that she got her current respectability in Li Mansion because of the second young master, if she left the second young master, she would be useless, how could the madam value her.
Li Yaonan was so angry that he laughed, he was really a bold and good servant, he casually pointed to a young man who was carrying a cabinet, and shouted: "You, come here!"
Wang Xiaohu was stunned, and pointed to his nose: "Me?"
"It's you, come here." Li Yaonan looked impatient.
Wang Xiaohu put down the cabinet, his whole body was in a fog, he walked forward in a daze, and even stuttered a little: "Second...Second Young Master!"
"Two, what, go tell the steward that Jinglan Courtyard needs to build a small kitchen, and I'll move in the day after tomorrow, so let him fix it as soon as possible." Li Yaonan now has a headache when he hears the word.
Nanny Li was dumbfounded, she didn't expect Li Yaonan to be so disrespectful to her, glared at Wang Xiaohu, and reprimanded viciously: "How dare you—"
Wang Xiaohu hesitated, and immediately didn't know what to do.
Li Yaonan's eyes darkened, and he glanced at him coldly.
Wang Xiaohu shuddered all over, he didn't care about Nanny Li, he hurriedly said: "I... I'll go right away!" After speaking, he hurriedly ran out of the yard.
Li Yaonan sneered, and walked away, only Mammy Li was left in a mess in the wind.
Nanny Li was so angry that she gasped, she put her hands on her chest and couldn't believe it, the second young master dared to resist her, and turned against the sky.
When Li Yaonan returned to Luoqiu Pavilion, it was time to eat, and he took a look at the soup and lack of water in front of him. He was no less hungry than yesterday, and suddenly lost his appetite. I am afraid that his portion of today's meal may have entered Nanny Li's stomach again. No wonder she was hesitant to build a kitchenette.
Li Yaonan has been well-clothed and well-fed since his previous life, and he never likes to wrong himself. Following the places in his memory, he took out a few taels of silver and a few bank notes. He planned to go out for a stroll, see the ancient city of Yangzhou, and What's the difference in modern times.
This world is strange to say, the location of the land, the scenic spots are exactly the same as in ancient China, except that there are more men to have children.
When Li Yaonan thinks about this until now, he feels very strange. He really can't imagine how a man with a big belly looks like, just thinking about it makes him feel a little ashamed.
Yangzhou has been a prosperous place since ancient times. After leaving the gate of Li Mansion, walking on the noisy street, looking at the pedestrians, hawkers, and dazzling shops on the road, Li Yaonan felt as if he had passed away, and his heart fell to the ground instantly, and there was another inexplicable feeling. Only at this time did he have a feeling that he was really in the ancient times.
There were too many things before, and the time was too tight. It was too late for him to consider the current situation, and he didn't have the heart to grieve the spring and autumn. Li Yaonan grinned and walked over to a restaurant not far away.
Zuixian Tower is indeed a necessary scene in ancient TV dramas and novels.
"Guest officer, do you want a private room on the first floor or the second floor?" The shop waiter greeted him enthusiastically, with eyes full of sensuality, and a smile on his face, beckoning him to sit inside.
Li Yaonan felt happy, and his mood suddenly changed for the better. He really likes to be lively, and also likes to be flattered by others. As a second-generation ancestor, he really can't bear to sit on the bench. Life in Li's Mansion is really depressing, but it's just a day , he felt that he didn't know how many brain cells had died. It seemed that he had to find a way to move out as soon as possible.
"Go to the second floor." Li Yaonan casually took two pieces of silver, walked to the second floor in a big way, found a table by the window and sat down.
"Okay!" The waiter in the shop looked happy, the smile on his face became more flattering, and his attitude became more respectful. After Li Yaonan sat down, he hurriedly asked: "What does the guest officer need, Tianxiang abalone, canned fish lip, but our The signature dish, keep you satisfied."
"Then come up and try it out, and ask for two more side dishes, you can figure it out."
"Okay! Just wait a moment, I'll be here right away." The waiter patted his chest to reassure, and hurried to the kitchen for someone to prepare.
Li Yaonan stared at the window in a daze, suddenly amused in his heart, he was really too lonely, looking for a sense of presence in the waiter.
Not long after, the food came out, it seemed that the two silver coins were not in vain, the waiter in the shop was really considerate to him.
"Guest officer, it's your first time to come here. The accent doesn't sound like Yangzhou's."
Li Yaonan was taken aback for a moment, he felt relaxed just now, and unconsciously spoke in an official accent, that is, the Mandarin in his previous life.
"How do you know I'm not from Yangzhou?"
The shop clerk smiled triumphantly: "We come and go, as long as people in Yangzhou City, basically everyone has a familiar face. Young master, you seem to be very familiar."
Li Yaonan was silent in his heart, and decided not to tell him that he was born and bred in Yangzhou. At this time, he realized that the owner of this body was actually an otaku. Besides reading, he still read books in his mind. Drunk Immortal Building eats, and even goes out to make friends, which is pathetic.
Li Yaonan raised his eyebrows and asked, "You are very familiar with Yangzhou City, so do you know if there is anything new recently?"
"If you want to talk about this new thing, it belongs to the second son of the Li family. I heard that he is going to get married soon, and he will marry Shuang'er."
"What's wrong with Shuang'er?" Li Yaonan frowned slightly, a little displeased in his heart, it didn't matter whether Shuang'er was or not, he just didn't like the insignificant tone of the waiter when he mentioned the second son of the Li family.
The shop waiter has always been able to observe words and expressions, and only thought that there was a relative in this guest official's family who was Shuang'er, so he was unhappy, and immediately changed his tone: "Shuang'er is naturally fine, I heard that Mr. Come out, the second young master of the Li family is very lucky to meet a kind-hearted stepmother, changing to an ordinary family, how could it be so good to the original child."
"Oh?" Li Yaonan became interested: "You said Mrs. Li Jiaji is very good to the children born by the original spouse?"
"Isn't it? Otherwise, how could I find a good family for him? The second young master of the Li family is also worthless, so Mrs. Li has no choice but to plan for him. A generous stepmother like her is really rare."
Perhaps in the eyes of others, this is a sign that he is not favored, but in the eyes of Li Yaonan, he is extremely satisfied. The most satisfying thing for him is the corner door on the side of the courtyard, so it is convenient for him to go out and do anything in the future.
