After the triplets piled into the carriage, they looked around curiously, touching whatever they could. They behaved just like curious little babies, leaning out of the window to look at the scenery outside.
Qi Qingyao was worried they would fall out, so she pulled them back down.
Once she had carried them away from the window, the toddlers sat in their seats obediently. Their legs were too short, so they swung them back and forth.
“The horse carriage is so spacious.” Erniu’s face was still adorably red from her excitement.
Qi Qingyao asked, “What types of carriage have you taken before?”
“Nothing, we just walked…” Erniu lowered her gaze after she said that.
Dabao and Xiaobao looked at her solemnly too, as though saying how this was a first for them too.
Qi Qingyao rubbed Erniu’s head. “You’ll have plenty of chances after this. Once we have the money, we’ll buy a big house, hire a few workers, maids and servant boys. When that happens, my babies won’t have to exert their little leggies anymore, alright?”
“Alright, yayy! ~~We wanna buy a biiig horse carriage too~” The triplets leaped up in joy and hugged Qi Qingyao, kissing her.
Jiang Yeqian raised a brow as he watched them.
The koi temple was quite close to Baishui Town, so they arrived in no time. After they came down from the carriage, Qi Qingyao blinked in awe when she saw the size of the mansion. “I had no idea Baishui Town had such an extravagant manor.”
One of the guards asked, “Are you not from her, madam physician?”
Qi Qingyao nodded slightly and said without missing a beat, “No, I’m not.”
Jiang Yeqian, “?”
The guard explained, “Since Qingzhou City has the koi temples nearby, a lot of merchants and court officials come here to retire. They want to be closer to the Koi God so they can pray for their descendants’ futures more often.”
“Oh, right.”
So that was why.
A butler led the guests through the door. He did not bat an eyelid at all when he saw Ox-head and Horse-face behind Qi Qingyao, his expression saying he had long since gotten used to this.
After Qi Qingyao went inside, though, she was like a country mouse in the city. She could not help a few gasps of sheer awe.
Seriously, was she in one of Suzhou’s famous gardens now? There were arches everywhere, beautiful fake mountains and bridges over flowing water beyond them. Qi Qingyao could not help but breathe, “See, this is a house worth living in.”
“The pond here has fresh flowing water!” Si Jin pointed at the beautiful little pond excitedly.
Qi Qingyao pouted, jealous. “This is a rich man’s house. Of course the water here is fresh. They must have channelled a stream from Jiuli River into this pond to keep it flowing!”
The mansion itself probably cost tens of thousands of taels to build, huh?
As expected of a Marquis.
Their family was loaded!
The guards led the crew to an ornate hall and told Qi Qingyao, “Please come with me to the Heir’s chambers. The rest of you, could I trouble you to wait here? We’ll serve you cakes and tea.”
The toddlers were reluctant to leave her, but Qi Qingyao eventually shook them off and followed the guard to the Heir’s chambers.
His garden was filled with plum blossoms, and since they were in the middle of the winter, the flowers were in full bloom. All her eyes could see was a rain of red.
When they arrived at the Heir’s door, the guard asked Qi Qingyao to wait for a moment.
He knocked on the door and hastily went inside to report to the Heir.
“Lord Heir, I found you a young female physician. Is it alright if she comes in to check on you?”
The guard at the door had barely spoken before a teacup came flying at him from the bedside.
“Out of my sight!”
The person on the bed seemed to be in a bad mood.
