On the second day, Pearl didn't care whether it was New Year's Day or whether there was anyone on the street, she just said that she was bored at home and wanted to go out for a walk.The Hua family didn't dare to stop her because she exposed her shortcomings yesterday, they only told her to come to eat at home, and she was allowed to go.

There are not many pedestrians on the street, and everyone still has their homes for the holidays.There were only a few children, running around in the street, lighting a small firecracker with incense sticks from time to time, listening to the sound of the firecrackers, and watching each other with great joy.

Fortunately, Pearl is a quiet and accustomed place, walking on the street by herself, she doesn't have any feelings of being touched by the scene, she asks passers-by, and then walks quickly to the address Qiaoyun gave her.

The places where people live in the capital have always been rich in the east and rich in the west, poor in the south and humble in the north.For example, Hua's family lives in Nancheng, and the house Qiaoyun bought for Pearl is at the intersection of Nancheng and Dongcheng.Although it is not a place where rich people gather, compared to where the Hua family is located, it can be regarded as a wealthy area. Not to mention that the neighbors are all civilians, and people from the yamen often come and go to patrol, so the security is stronger than 01:30.

The places are not close, and the first-year junior high school students have no car to hire, so Pearl can only rely on her own two feet.I have to ask the children on the street for the way from time to time, and often let the children point in the wrong direction.But she didn't dare to ask my lord, even in the daytime, she still had to guard against someone seeing her as a single woman and having evil intentions.

Afraid of what to come, Zhuzhu managed to get close to Dongcheng, but she couldn't find where the "Taolin" alley was.After asking several children and pointing her in three or four directions, Pearl didn't know which one was right.Just as he was hesitating, someone behind him asked, "Miss, are you going to Taolin Hutong?"

Pearl turned her head and saw that it was a man of seventeen or eighteen years old.He is of medium height, with a rectangular face, medium eyes, and thick lips, which make him look simple and honest.Pearl saw that he was wearing a blue gown, which was not a workmanship dress, and the material was also silk, but it was just ordinary official silk, not a high-quality material.

Seems like a solid guy.Pearl gave a blessing to the man: "Young master, the little girl is indeed looking for Taolin Hutong. It's just that the children point to different directions. If you know, I hope it will be convenient for you."

Li Sen was a little confused. He grew up here, but he had never met this girl.Judging by her behavior, she is very polite, which shows that her family has been well-bred.Listening to the conversation again, he knows how to advance and retreat very well, which makes people feel good.

"I don't know which family in Taolin Hutong the girl is looking for. My family is the second family in Taomu Hutong. My surname is Li. But I have never seen the girl."

Unexpectedly, she was a neighbor, Zhu Zhen couldn't help but smile: "It's no wonder that you haven't seen the little girl. The little girl also bought a house here in the autumn, and I have nothing to do today, so I came to take a look."

Li Sen only felt that the girl's smile was shaking in front of him, and he couldn't help saying, "Could it be the fifth family?"

Pearl nodded: "I heard from the person who bought the house for the little girl that it is indeed the fifth house."

Li Sen still made the smile a little confused, and a simple and honest smile floated on his face: "I just want to go home, so why not go with me, girl."

Alarm bells rang in Zhenzhu's heart, don't meet a kidnapper, deceive her to no one's place, a sack can take her away.Seeing her hesitation, Li Sen hurriedly said, "Girl, don't worry, my home is indeed here. These children also know me." He pulled a child and asked, "Little Niuzi, this sister asked our alley just now, why do you Didn't tell her?"

The child quit: "Just now I clearly told her how to get there, but she asked Erdan and them again. They all pointed to the alley where she lived, so how could it be correct. Doesn't my sister know how to get there? Brother Mori, you are an adult, you can believe what you said about my sister, so please tell him how to get to our alley."

Li Sen looked at Pearl proudly, seeing that she was so embarrassed, it seemed that she had a villainous heart.So she saluted him again as an apology.Li Sen didn't care, he just led her in the front.

"This is Taolin Hutong. I heard that this was the outer city, full of peach forests. Later, more and more people lived in the city, and gradually it became a house, so it was called Taolin Hutong." Li Sen While walking, he explained the origin of the name of the alley to Pearl.

It turns out that in this era, the city has also expanded.Pearl was meditating in her heart, with a smile on her face to show that she was listening.Encouraged by Li Sen, he introduced the families living in the alley to Pearl one by one.But Pearl didn't intend to live here, she just heard about it.

"Walk two more steps forward, and you'll be the girl's house." Li Sen regretted why the road was so short today, but the first time we met, it wasn't good, so he went to the house with the girl, so he had to say, "I don't know, girl Your surname, my family is here, if you have something to do in the future, you can say hello."

Although Pearl has been a human being for such a long time, she still doesn't care much about the rule that girls in this era can't tell other people's names casually, and blurted out: "My surname is Hua." Think of the scum of a certain country.

When Pearl opened the courtyard door by herself and went to see her own courtyard, some people in the Li family talked about her.

"Moriko, which family's girl was walking with you just now? It looks like she came from a rich family." It was Li Sen's mother who asked.

Li Sen said to his mother: "It is said that the surname is Hua, and I bought the fifth house by myself."

Mother Li was surprised: "I bought it myself? How can a little girl have so much money? Don't you come from a bad place?"

Hearing what his mother said about the girl, Li Sen didn't know why he felt uncomfortable: "What are you talking about. Judging by the way she dresses, it's not like Qiao Qiao's, and she is very polite when she speaks."

His mother looked at him a little differently: "Why, did you fall in love with him? Let me tell you, although our family doesn't have a big business, it is also a family with a good name and a good surname. You can't see a neat girl by yourself , I don’t know what my last name is.”

Li Sen let his mother say what was on his mind, turned around and went back to his room to sulk.On the other hand, Mother Li just glanced at the girl's back, but didn't see her appearance clearly, so she was a little worried.After thinking about it, I went out to the streets by myself, pretending to care about my new neighbors, and going to explore the bottom of the pearl.

In front of Pearl, there is a small courtyard, which can only be entered twice.It's nothing compared to Rongguo Mansion, but compared to where the Hua family lives now, it's heaven and earth.They can't let them know that they have this house, this is what Pearl thinks.

"Young lady is the new owner of this house?" A female voice rang in Pearl's ear.Pearl was startled, and when she looked back, she saw a round-faced, rich woman in her forties talking to her.

Looking at the door, it turned out that I forgot to close the courtyard door just now, so I can't blame others for sneaking in through the door.Pearl met with a blessing: "Exactly. I don't know who the old lady is?"

Mother Li also looked at Pearl, and saw that she had a long face, two almond-shaped eyes, shining with a guarded light, white and clean, making people feel stable.It's no wonder that the son said that he was not from Yaoqiao, even if Mother Li saw it herself, she couldn't connect the people in front of her with the people from those places.

"I heard from my children that the girl bought her own house. Doesn't the girl have a family? Do you want to worry about these things alone at a young age?" Mother Li began to inquire about Pearl's family affairs.

This pearl doesn't take it as disobedience, people of this age don't have much sense of privacy.Neighbors who live together are all included in the first protection, so of course we must find out the origin of the person.She also didn't think there was anything about her background that she couldn't see, so she said to Mother Li: "The young girl is a servant of the Rongguo Mansion, and because of the generosity of the master, she bought a small property."

So that's the case, it's a party with this girl, and she really came from a rich family.Such things are common in Beijing, and these wealthy slaves have always preferred places like them, where the rich and the poor intersect, and they don't pay much attention to their property, and their safety is safer than Nancheng.

It's not common for such a little girl to make such a plan for herself.What's more, most of the people who can relocate their property outside are always in the eyes of the master, so Li's mother changed her mind.It's just that she is also someone with some experience, and she still smiled affectionately on her face:

"Young lady has come here, have you seen the security chief? It is said that a new person has come to the alley, so it would be better to have a word from the security chief's house."

This pearl really doesn't know, she asked with some hesitation: "Madam, it's the first time for my daughter to buy property, so I don't know much about it. Please Madam, can you tell me a little bit about it."

Mother Li listened to her being polite and courteous, so she explained very clearly how to meet the security chief and what to bring to people if they lived in.After hearing this, Zhu Zhen breathed a sigh of relief: "If this is the case, my little girl won't be too worried. Because I still have to work in the mansion and don't live here."

Li's mother shook her head: "Miss, this is bad. People say that it is better to be in charge now, so I greeted the security chief. If there is something, the security chief can deal with it for you. Besides, even if the girl is not on weekdays, This house has to be taken care of for you, to prevent some gangsters from taking over the house when the owner is not there."

Even if Zhenzhu knew that with the signboard of Rongguo Mansion, no unscrupulous gangster would dare to bully her, but she was still grateful for Mother Li's kindness.He only said that because he didn't know the importance of it, he just wanted to come here to see the house today, and he was not prepared. He would visit the Baochang's house another day.

Seeing that she listened to the persuasion, Li's mother was very happy: "There is no rush, the girl will think about it next time. If you are so busy, I won't bother you."

Pearl sent people out, and Gu Zi looked at the house again.In ancient times, most of the houses were owned by their own family, and the rental rate was extremely low. She bought this house because of her plan.So although I don't plan to live in it, I still need to prepare the things that should be prepared.
