Jade spy border

Chapter 68
The next day, Mi Huaian and the Meng family each counted the banknotes. One led Mi He to the spice shop opened by the Meng clan brother, and bought the raw materials according to the order given by Mi Yuyan. The other led Mi Quan to prepare some New Year's gifts. , went to pay the debt to Meng's natal family.

In the past two or three years, when the Mi family was struggling to survive, Young Master Meng had to go back to her parents' home twice to borrow money. When she couldn't get the money for raw materials, she asked her brother to come forward as a guarantee. And because the accounts were not paid, she couldn't get the raw materials. The elder brother also helped advance the money, which made the eldest sister-in-law very unhappy. She tried to cash it out overtly and covertly, so much so that Meng didn't even dare to go back to her parents' house with a shameful face.

It's not that she likes to show off when she has money, but Mi Yuyan is really anxious to buy raw materials. If Meng's sister-in-law knows that Mi's family has money to buy goods but has no money to pay off the debt, it will inevitably cause quarrels between brother and sister-in-law.

Furthermore, the fifth nephew of the Meng family is about to get married, and the eighth sister is also getting married. Money is used everywhere. If you don’t have money, you are helpless. Now that you have money, whether it is Mi Fugen As Mi Huaian and his wife, they still wanted to save face, so Mi Fugen urged Meng to return to her parents' home, and asked her to pay her parents' home three points of interest in accordance with the customs of lending money.

There were things going on inside and outside, so Mi Fugen simply stayed for a few more days and helped Mi into the supply cabinet at Xianghang. Mi Yuyan, on the other hand, was free and alone in her small courtyard, taking advantage of the good weather to bring her grandmother to the store. I took out the books I left behind to dry them, and also read through the three "Collections of Zhencao Xiang" carefully.

There is no signature on the yellowed ancient book. It is more like a book written by a descendant of some aristocratic family who concentrated on this and recorded it himself. As for the other two, it can be determined that they are both in the handwriting of grandmother Nie, but the one written by Sang Wan The handwriting in this book is a bit immature. The book my grandmother often took out to read was copied by her later.

If it is true as Ying Tong said, then the rumors about missing people are true. Could it be that the person Sang Wan is looking for is his grandmother?If this is the case, Sang Wan must have known each other since they were children. Since they were children, the two families were either relatives or family friends.

The key point is, why did my grandmother live in seclusion in Linnan, especially what happened before she came out of the capital, and what happened after she left Linnan Mountain?
And Sang Wan is a child of the Han family in Juancheng. In fact, Mi Yuyan had heard of this Han family in Juancheng in her previous life. As for her grandmother's surname Nie, she really couldn't remember that there was such a Nie surname in Juancheng. A big family.

But according to what Doctor Qin said, when she met her grandmother, her grandmother’s surname was Nie, so she probably didn’t keep her name anonymous. Moreover, her ancestral home was not from Linnan, but her maternal ancestral family had lived in Linnan for a long time, and her grandmother still followed her. My grandma grew up, but I didn’t see her having much interaction with my grandma’s family. She just stayed in this small courtyard all year round.

In Mi Yuyan's memory, her grandmother Nie's only daily walk was to take a walk by the river. Every time she walked to the deserted house full of jacarandas outside the high wall, she would look at it a few more times. Without speaking, he just held her hand silently and turned around to walk back...

What on earth is grandma looking at? Does that deserted house have anything to do with grandma?If there is a relationship, what is the relationship?Could it be that she is my grandmother’s mother-in-law?The west side of the city is a gathering place for merchants. If I follow my grandmother's description and behavior, my family should not be just wealthy merchants. So which family lived in this deserted house in the past?
Doctor Qin said that her grandmother returned to the southwest plateau because of her grandmother's illness. But based on Mi Yuyan's memory, she could almost tell that since her grandmother returned to Linnan, she had become an orphan with no relatives or clan. So what happened to my grandmother when she was in the capital that made her return south alone?
Mi Yuyan was holding the book in a daze when she heard Sixth Brother's voice: "Hua Niang, someone is looking for you ahead."

Mi Yuyan came back to her senses and was a little surprised: "Who is looking for me? Master Chen is here again?"

Mi Jin had come closer and his voice lowered: "No, he looks like a gentle man, about forty years old. He said that Grandma Wu sent him here to buy incense, and that's all he wanted to tell you. , you will definitely meet him. But from my uncle’s expression, it seems that he has seen this person before, but he doesn’t dare to recognize him.”

Mi Yuyan raised her eyebrows. This was someone from the Yu family. After all, it was a thousand taels of silver. It was in the hands of a housewife, which always made people a little worried. This person who came would definitely not be that person. Magistrate Yu is a gentleman himself, so it should be the people around him.

It seems that Yu Xianzun is really interested in his wife, but since he has sent people around him, he may have some other intentions. Mi Yuyan pondered for a moment, no matter what he has Meaning, now that she is here, she still wants to see how much weight this Yuxian Zun has.When Mi Yuyan entered the flower hall of the shop, she saw her grandfather serving tea to the visitor. When the man saw Mi Yuyan coming in, he stood up and bowed his hands to her very politely: "My surname is Qian, I don't know what to say." How to call it."

Mi Yuyan knelt down and saluted: "The ninth sister of the Mi family wishes to greet Mr. Qian. This is my great-uncle, the head of the Mi family. I wonder what Mr. Qian wants from me?"

Qian Jinsong and Yu Kezhi listened to Yu Kaicheng's report together, and recounted the details of how they met the ninth sister of the Mi family that day. Just listening to Yu Kaicheng's words, he felt that this little girl was quite suitable for him. When I saw him today, this girl was even more so. Regardless of who he was, she went straight to the point. I don't know if she was a bold person who was ignorant of the world, or if she already knew it in her heart.

"Nine ladies, don't you ask me who I am?" Master Qian started to grumble.

Mi Yuyan pursed her lips, thinking that in today's world, everyone treats others as fools. It's okay for old men to be careless, but it's not like such a mature man to be careless.

"Mr. Qian is joking. You have already introduced yourself to Mr. Qian from Magistrate Yu's family. But Aunt Wu can't influence you, so if you have anything to say, just say it!"

Mi Fugen opened his mouth again and again. He simply didn't know how to rebuke Mi Yuyan. This Master Qian was the only master who was useful to County Magistrate Yu. He was brought here from the capital. No matter how I listened to my sister's tone, I felt that it smelled of disgust.

Unexpectedly, Master Qian suddenly laughed out loud: "Ninth Lady has a straightforward personality and is really not a common person. When Qian comes here, one is for public purposes and the other is for private purposes. I wonder which one she wants to hear first?"

"Mr. Qian, that's all you want." Mi Yuyan had an expression that said, "Let's talk and I'll listen." As for what to do after listening, that's another story.

Mr. Qian raised his hand and took out a silver note from his sleeve pocket: "Let's talk about personal matters first. This is a 1000 tael cash note. Is Jiu Niangzi's box of Qingfeng Ziying ready?"

Mi Yuyan raised her eyebrows. Master Qian was a cheerful person, if nothing else. She stood up immediately and said, "Mr. Qian, please wait a moment. I'll go get it right away."
