Chapter 3: New Home
The old lady took out a newly bought mattress and put it on her. Yuan Man immediately stopped her and said, "Grandma, I'm fine. The child's father sent some special pills. I'll be fine after taking them." As he spoke, he moved closer to her.
"Look, your complexion has improved a lot."
Granny Liu took a look and found that it was true.
"What's wrong with your neck?"
Yuan Man lowered his eyes and said, "Oh, I just passed by a thatched pile and accidentally cut it. It's a shallow cut, it's okay."
The old lady frowned. The wound didn't look like it was caused by thatch, but she didn't ask any more questions.
"Although you have taken the medicine, you still need to stay in confinement. I asked Mrs. Song at the city gate to help me make chicken soup, but it cost five taels of silver. You should drink it quickly."
"Give me the baby. I'll buy some breast milk and feed the baby."
"Look at the child, his face is red from crying. He must be very hungry."
Yuanman looked at Yuanbao. His face had always been red, but now it was even darker.
"Feed Yuanbao first, I'm not in a hurry."
Grandma Liu took out a small clay jar and when she opened it, a fishy smell of milk wafted out.
Yuanman held the child in his arms while Granny Liu fed him with a small wooden spoon.
He was really hungry, Yuanbao was so anxious that his mouth kept smacking.
Granny Liu fed the baby about ten spoonfuls and then stopped. "The baby has a small stomach and can't eat too much. Feed him when he's hungry later."
"I'll hold the baby, you eat now."
Yuan Man put the child into Grandma Liu's arms and said, "Grandma, I have named the child. His full name is Ruixi and his nickname is Yuanbao."
Granny Liu smiled and nodded, "Okay, Yuanbao is fine."
"Hurry up and drink your soup, or you'll get cold."
Yuan Man's eyes turned red as he looked at the soup in the clay pot. "Thank you, grandma."
"Grandma, let's eat together."
Granny Liu smiled and shook her head, "Grandma has already eaten, really. She bought herself some steamed buns when she got to the city. You should eat quickly."
"Food is hard to buy now. Mrs. Song sold me this chicken because it was almost starving to death and couldn't lay eggs. Come and eat it."
Yuanman didn't argue anymore and started drinking the soup immediately. She was also very hungry. She hadn't eaten since yesterday and had just consumed a lot.
She ate most of the can of chicken soup, leaving a large chicken drumstick, a chicken wing and some thin meat.
Let Grandma Liu eat it.
The two still argued for a while, and when Granny Liu saw that she was really full, she ate the rest.
After finishing the chicken soup in the clay pot, the old lady said, "The children were so scattered that I didn't go to look for them. I left a letter asking them not to leave the city and wait for me at the city gate to pick them up."
"it is good."
After entering the city, the driver knocked on the wall of the carriage and asked where he wanted to take us.
Yuanman directly told the address.
The driver and Granny Liu were both stunned when they heard the address.
Yonghe Street is where the rich people in Mingzhou City live, and everyone in Mingzhou City knows it.
The old lady didn't know what the number six stood for, but the driver did.
Number six happens to be adjacent to the richest man’s family, Gu’s.
The driver said nothing more and drove the carriage directly to Yonghe Street.
There are two guards on Yonghe Street, and non-Yonghe Street residents are not allowed to enter unless you have an invitation or are led in by someone inside.
"Stop, no one except residents of Yonghe Street is allowed to enter."
Yuanman sighed, there were community security guards in ancient times!
He lifted the car curtain and took a look, then took out the title deed, "Owner No. 6."
The guard took a closer look and his eyes immediately widened.
"What's the matter? Is there a problem?" Yuan Man frowned and looked at them.
"No, please come in." One of them shook his head vigorously.
The other person stepped back and saluted, saying, "Miss Yuan, you are a new resident. Please send someone to the management office to register your family's population and get a badge. You can come and go freely with the badge."
"Thank you." Yuan Man nodded and lowered the car curtain, thinking: Is the management office the modern street office?
Seeing this, the coachman drove the carriage into Yonghe Street.
[Ding, you can sign in at Yonghe Street in Mingzhou City. Do you want to sign in? ]
Yuan Man was delighted when he heard the voice and immediately said, "Sign in."
She was just wondering why there was no response after entering the Mingzhou City system. It turned out that the sign-in location was on Yonghe Street.
[Ding, congratulations to the host for signing in successfully. The sign-in reward is 1,000 taels of silver and eight levels of internal strength. The relevant items have been placed in the backpack, please check them. ]
[The next check-in point is Baihu Mountain. ]
Yuan Man’s eyes widened when he heard this. Internal force?
Is that what she was thinking?
[Yes, the future is unknown, the host has internal strength to protect himself, which makes it easier to complete the sign-in task. ]
Yuanman received the inner force.
A ray of light shot into her body and traveled through her veins. Yuan Man felt sore and swollen all over, as if ants were biting her bones. She forced herself not to groan.
It took a long time before it slowly disappeared.
Then he looked at the one thousand taels of silver in the backpack and grinned foolishly, which made Grandma Liu look suspicious.
The two guards watched the carriage go away and secretly sighed that the owner of the house was really low-key.
She was dressed like a beggar. Who would have thought that she was the owner of the house on Yonghe Street.
I don't understand how rich people are so low-key.
The driver stopped the carriage in front of Courtyard No. 6, and Grandma Liu looked at the gate in front of her.
This is not a small courtyard, it is clearly a large mansion.
Yuan Man lifted the car curtain and looked at the gate in front of him. He was a little stunned. It was so magnificent.
"Aman, is this really the place?" Granny Liu asked in disbelief.
Yuan Mandian closed the carriage and took out the key to unlock the gate.
This time, no one disbelieved it.
The driver glanced at her and signaled Grandma Liu to pay the rest of the fare.
He took the money and said he would come back if I needed anything, then left.
Granny Liu followed Yuanman into the house and looked at the scenery around her, her eyes widening in surprise.
Seeing that Yuan Man was about to leave, he immediately stopped her and said, "You are still in confinement and cannot be exposed to the cold. Find a room and rest quickly."
Yuan Man nodded in agreement, "Okay, grandma, I'll have to trouble you to go to the dental clinic again and ask their person in charge to come over."
"With such a big house, I have to find some people to take care of it. This way, you can enjoy the happiness with me."
When Grandma Liu was young, she worked in the palace. She was released to marry at the age of 25. She gave birth to a son and a daughter at the age of 28. Now she is only 48 years old.
Because she had been in the palace before, she knew not to ask questions that she shouldn't.
No matter how good her relationship with Yuan Man was, she didn't feel that she had the power to manage her affairs.
She did whatever Yuanman said.
When she heard Yuan Man say that she would enjoy a good life with her, she just smiled and said, "Okay."
"Aman, I'm going to go find the human brigand. You go find a room and rest first. Don't get too tired."
Yuan Man nodded and said, "Okay, thank you for your hard work, grandma."
After Grandma Liu left, she continued to look at the house.
The house is divided into four courtyards, with a corridor courtyard and a main hall in the middle, and a large artificial lake on the side with a few lotus leaves floating on it.
The lotus roots inside must have been dug up long ago, after all, the famine spread throughout Huiguo and the three neighboring countries.
Even when the famine was at its worst, the rich could only barely make ends meet.
You have to know that at that time, even if you had silver, you might not be able to buy food. It all depended on who had more food stored.
