Chapter 66
After Jiang left, he went to the kitchen. Ma Yunshang was eating with the cook next to him. Seeing his wife coming, he hurriedly got up, took out a handkerchief to wipe his mouth, and then walked over, saying: "Madam, you Why did you come to the kitchen? There is a lot of oily smoke here, let's talk outside."

"Alright!" Jiang turned around and walked out of the kitchen with a smile. The door of the kitchen was a flower garden, and it was the season when all kinds of flowers were in full bloom. There was a phalaenopsis planted in the flower garden, and the delicate flowers exuded a faint fragrance.

Jiang said with a smile: "Your uncle and sister-in-law are guests today, and you shouldn't be kept busy in the kitchen, but you also know that you are the one with the best craftsmanship in our family. Today the fourth prince is here again. I have to work hard on you. I'm going to take a nap now, and after you eat, go to Xiaomeng's place for me and talk to your sister-in-law."

Ma Yunshang nodded uncomfortably, "Yes!"

Jiang Shi turned around and entered the middle courtyard, stopped in his tracks, and said to the accompanying maid: "Go and call Guanshi Li!"

The servant girl got the order, turned around and walked out.

Jiang shi took the other maids back to her room, and the little maid brought tea, and she picked up the cup and sipped it in small sips.

After a while, the servant girl brought in a middle-aged man in his forties. This man was Jiang's dowry when he married into Tian's family. His name was Li Hui. Very loyal to the Jiang family.

"Ma'am, you call me!"

Jiang Shi nodded, "Li Hui, what is the price of the land near Yucheng?"

Li Hui hurriedly said, "About five cents per mu."

"Then you use the money in the account to buy me a small village of [-] mu, which is closer to the city, and the land deeds are written in the name of Mrs. Gu."

Li Hui was taken aback for a moment, but didn't ask any further questions. He agreed and turned around to leave.

With the support of the maid, Gu Qingmei sat on the Arhat's bed and continued to chat and drink tea with the two.

After drinking two cups of tea, the fourth prince and concubine said: "I just drank a few cups of wine, and I'm a little tired now, Xiaomeng, let me borrow your room to lie down."

Tian Xiaomeng knew that she had the habit of taking a nap, so she hurriedly called in a little maid, "Fang'er, have you cleaned up the Xinuang Pavilion?"

The little servant girl said: "When the fourth concubine came, Madam ordered me to clean up the Xinuang Pavilion so that the fourth concubine could rest for a while. Now all the quilts have been replaced with new ones and sandalwood has been burned."

Tian Xiaomeng smiled at the fourth prince and concubine: "Those who don't know think you are my mother's daughter, even the habit of taking a nap is the same, you must burn some sandalwood to sleep."

The fourth princess got up and said: "When I was young, I lived next to your mother, and I often went to pester her in the house. She taught me my poems, needlework, and I often rested with her. I got such a habit. Qing Meizi, I won’t be with you anymore. After a short rest, the sun isn’t so bright anymore, so I should go too. Your foot hurts, so I can’t invite you. Wait a few days, and I’ll get someone to help you. You post the post, please go to my other courtyard, and then we will discuss the matter of opening the academy and finalize the details."

"Then I'll wait for the post from the fourth princess."

The fourth prince and concubine went to the Xinuang Pavilion in the courtyard to rest, leaving aside the fact that Gu Qingmei and Tian Xiaomeng continued drinking tea and chatting.

The servant girl, Xiao Que, brought Yun Shen in. Yun Shen had already taken a bath and changed her clothes, but the fourth concubine came, so she didn't dare to bring her in. Now she has eaten for her. Seeing the fourth concubine, she went to rest After a while, I dared to bring her in to meet people.

But when Yun Shen came in, Gu Qingmei and Tian Xiaomeng were all stunned, why?Because this Yun Shen was so beautiful, with a slender figure, pink face and peach cheeks, under two curved willow-leaf long eyebrows, there are bright eyes, a nose like hanging gallbladder, a vermilion lip like cherry blossoms, pink and tender Tender, unexpectedly has the face of sinking a fish into a wild goose, instantly comparing the two of them.

Gu Qingmei asked in surprise: "You are Yun Shen?"

Yun Shen lowered his head slightly, and said timidly, "Yes! This servant is Yun Shen!"

"Master Murong asked someone to redeem you, how much money did you spend?" Gu Qingmei calculated in her heart, she wanted to buy this girl, she couldn't let Murong Yu spend money, so she wanted to find out the price and return it to Murong Yu later.

But Yun Shen's trembling voice said falteringly: "Five... 500 taels..."

"What?" Lu Qingmei suddenly felt as if a large group of crows flew over her head, 500 taels?Is there a mistake?Her entire net worth is probably less than 500 taels.

Thinking about it, she said, "Didn't you say that your money for selling yourself is only ten taels?"

Yun Shen buried his head even deeper, "It is true that the money for selling the maidservant is only ten taels, but... benefactor injured so many people, the bustard insisted on asking for 500 taels of medicine money before she was willing to sell the slave maid .”

Tian Xiaomeng smiled and said: "The old bustards in Yichun Courtyard are desperate for money, and any girl who has passed their hands is fresh if she doesn't peel off the skin."

Gu Qingmei was worried, how would she raise such a large amount of money for Murong Yu in a short while?
She was worrying, but she heard the maidservant at the door say: "Master Biao is here!"

The emerald bead curtain at the door was lifted, and Murong Yu walked in from the outside, smelling of alcohol all over his body. After entering, he stood beside Luo Han's bed, picked up a cup of clear tea that had just been poured in front of Gu Qingmei, and drank it with his head raised.

"Hey... that's my cup..." Gu Qingmei couldn't help reminding him when he saw that he actually drank from his own cup.

Murong Yu put the empty cup back in front of her, teasing her deliberately: "What's the rush? I don't think you're dirty!"

Gu Qingmei didn't expect this guy to have such a bad temper, she couldn't help but gritted her teeth and said, "I think you're dirty!"

Tian Xiaomeng gave her cousin a reproachful look, "Cousin, you are disgusting, Dan'er, quickly change Miss Gu's cup."

Murong Yu breathed alcohol out of his mouth and said: "You girl, you really have no conscience, who am I drinking so much for?"

Tian Xiaomeng was afraid that he would say that she asked him to tell about Gu Qingyang's drunkenness, so she quickly jumped off the Arhat bed, picked up the teapot on the kang table and poured him a cup of tea, "Don't you just want to drink tea? I'll pour it for you Come, come, drink quickly, you can drink as much as you want, can I give you all this pot?"

As she spoke, she picked up the cup of tea and handed it to Murong Yu's mouth.

Murong Yu shook his head, reached out to take the teacup, sat down on the place she left, and slowly sipped with his head down.

Tian Xiaomeng stood beside him like a dog, beat his shoulders, and said flatteringly: "Cousin, you have worked hard, how is fourth brother Gu?"

Murong Yu glanced at her amusedly, and secretly thought that the female college student would not let him stay, "He drank too much, I asked Suifeng to take him to the guest room."
