Chapter 70

Xie Liunian made a quick calculation.One thousand shimi is equivalent to about 1000 taels of silver when the price is high, and more than 800 taels of silver when the price is low.The purchasing power of one tael of silver is about the same as the 600 yuan in the previous life.In other words, the value of Yaya's salary is between 50 and 60.

In my previous life, in what year and month did my annual salary rise to 50?It feels like a very long and difficult period from a monthly salary of 50 after graduating from university to an annual salary of [-].It was so long and difficult that I almost didn't want to think about it.

"Ten rounds." Xie Liunian stretched out two small palms, "Yaya, it takes ten rounds to lose." According to his previous brilliant record, he can win two or three hundred taels in one round, of which about 300 taels are Yaya's.To win all of Yaya's annual salary, ten rounds of poker should be enough.

"You little one." Yaya smiled and Mimi pinched her little cheek, "As the saying goes, 'Feng Shui turns around'. If you lose, you are not allowed to cry!" What if the little one loses?Maybe her father and younger brother will fight to clear her gambling debt, and the younger brother will coax her gently and carefully for a long time.

"I don't cry, it's not like I haven't lost before." Xie Liunian smiled sweetly, revealing two cute dimples, "I played cards with my parents and brothers at home, and I never won. I always lost. " Fourth master Xie never relents, he always loses everything.

There were many visitors, and the two of them hadn't exchanged a few whispers when Yaya was surrounded by a group of noble girls.Among them, two beautifully dressed girls were especially affectionate with Yaya, who smiled and called them "Ah Xuan, Ah Peng."

Xie Ruinian didn't know them, so he was curious, "Sixth Sister, Seventh Sister, these two seem to be very close to Princess Hanshan." Xie Liunian smiled and shook his head, saying "I don't know, I don't understand".Xie Jinnian behaved reservedly, looked over slowly, and said: "The two ladies of the Korean government, Wu Xuan and Wu Peng. Wu Xuan and Princess Hanshan are cousins, and Wu Peng is Wu Xuan's cousin." Wu Xuan is The eldest daughter of Wu Yupin, the eldest son of the Korean government, Wu Peng is the eldest daughter of Wu Yuji, the second son of the Korean government.

The lady of the Duke's Mansion is really nice.Xie Ruinian was pure-hearted, and looked over enviously. The more he looked at Wu Xuan and Wu Peng, the more pleasing to his eyes. "Sixth Sister, Seventh Sister, these two young ladies from the Korean government, they are really good-looking." They are good-looking, well-dressed, and have a particularly graceful demeanor.

Wu Xuan was wearing a silver-red brocade beige sprinkled all over the place, a long willow-green satin skirt, a tall flying fairy bun on her head, and a red gold silk bead hairpin. The crystal clear and moist pearls were the size of a thumb, shining brightly. A soft glow.Her complexion is fair, her face is good-looking, her gestures and gestures are generous and natural, and she is completely a lady of great manners.

Wu Peng is more elegant than her.The beige is a light lake blue, with a lapel collar and a few pink and purple flowers embroidered on the tail; twelve cloud silk long skirts, elegant like a dream.Three thousand blue silks were tied into a small Liuyun bun, which was light and lovely. There was no jewelry on the bun, but a fresh rose flower.

Xie Ruinian was envious, but it happened that Yaya led Wu Xuan and Wu Peng towards them.After saluting each other and saying hello, Yaya invited them to Liuyin Pavilion together, "You can see the scenery and listen to the opera." Liuyin Pavilion was built by the lake, and the stage was built on the pavilion in the middle of the lake. Listen to the music, it is very elegant.

Liuyin Pavilion is spacious and spacious.Sitting on the beautifully carved four-armchair, there are various fresh and dried fruits, candied snacks, tea and fruit drinks in front of you, listening to the melodious and graceful music.Looking up, you can have a panoramic view of the lake and mountains.Everyone sitting in the Liuyin Pavilion felt relaxed and happy.

Liuyin Pavilion and Qiu Yunxuan faced each other from a distance.In Qiu Yunxuan, it is Xie Yu who entertains the wives of various families; in Liuyin Pavilion, it is Yaya who entertains visiting noble girls.The girls recite poems, listen to music, drink tea and wine, enjoy the scenery, or talk in twos and threes.Among the fragrant clothes and shadows on the temples, some are charming and graceful, some are delicate and graceful, and each has its own touching features.

Yaya is the master, so it is inevitable that she has to go around and do her best to be a landlord.Xie Liunian didn't like to show off, he sat in an inconspicuous corner, pouring fruit wine from a Western self-serving jug, enjoying himself.The little boy is really quiet now, not disturbing anyone at all.Yaya looked at Xie Liunian, pursed her lips and smiled, and walked over quietly.

"His Royal Highness, you are very good at playing." Xie Liunian praised seriously.Yaya looked humble, "Where is it, Miss Seven won the prize. Only Miss Seven can play." Xie Liunian raised his eyebrows proudly, "That is!" Tonight, turn on the lights and fight at night to see who can play better !

Make Yaya happy.Look at the little girl who is eager to try, how will she kill all sides and win a big win when she plays cards later?My little one, good luck won't always be with you, you've won for so long, it should be my turn.

After the banquet, the play was almost over, and the wives and ladies of each family gradually got up to leave.Yaya politely sent off this one, and then sent off that one, so busy that her feet didn't touch the ground.

When the eldest wife was about to leave, by coincidence, Xie Liunian had a stomachache.Xie Yu apologized to the eldest lady, "I'm really sorry, ninety-nine percent of the time it's because the little girl is being mischievous. She must have been thinking about Xiao Liunian for a long time. Don't worry, I will personally send Xiao Liunian back before evening." "The eldest wife smiled, "Your love is really childish." Dare to say that Princess Hanshan likes Xiao Qi and wants to keep Xiao Qi, so that's why.The eldest wife knew that Fourth Master Xie and the Marquis of Nanning had a good relationship, and Xiao Qi often went to the Marquis of Nanning to play, so she had no objection at the moment, and only took Xie Ruinian and Xie Jinnian away.

Xie Ruinian was very worried, "Mother, Xiao Qi has a stomachache, how about I stay with her?" The eldest lady smiled gently, "It's good that the fifth girl loves my sister, but it's not necessary, Xiao Qi and Princess Hanshan come here often In the past, Mrs. Nanning Hou loves her very much." It doesn't matter if Xiao Qi stays in Nanning Hou's mansion.

Xie Jinnian smiled reservedly, but did not speak.How can Xiaoqi really have a stomachache?She has been fine for most of the day, except now she is frowning and covering her stomach, just bluffing.It's just that he just wants to play and doesn't want to leave, or maybe he wants to stay in the Zhang family and curry favor with Princess Hanshan.

Xie Ruinian and Xie Jinnian rode together in a small buggy with a red wheel and canopy, and they walked together, saying to all the girls in Liuyin Pavilion, "The eldest granddaughter of Wei Shoufu is really knowledgeable. Today she wrote ten poems, each of which is very good. "Sixth sister, the cousin of your second uncle's family, she speaks and behaves very well."

Finally, as we talked, we talked about the Wu sisters.Xie Ruinian admired it very much, Xie Jinnian smiled and remained silent.Seeing this, Xie Ruinian refused, "Sixth Sister, you must have something to tell me!" The Wu sisters are very handsome, why does Sixth Sister smile so meaningfully?There must be a reason.

The sixth younger sister usually values ​​her family background.But Wu Xuan and Wu Peng are both the daughters of the princes, their parents are from famous families, and their backgrounds are impeccable.Wu Xuan's father is the eldest son of the Korean government, and her mother is the eldest daughter of the Marquis of Lu'an; Wu Peng's father is the second son of the Korean government, and her mother is the eldest daughter of the Yingchuan Zhao family.Xie Ruinian thought about it, but couldn't figure out why.

How could Xie Jinnian be willing to talk to Xie Ruinian about everything, he only said vaguely: "Wu Xuan and Nanning Houfu are cousin relatives." Wu Xuan's mother, Mrs. Fu, is the younger sister of Mrs. Nanninghou.However, Mrs. Nanning Hou's surname is An, and she is the daughter of the An family.The things in between are really intriguing.

Xie Ruinian thought about it again and again.Yes, sisters, one is surnamed Fu and the other is surnamed An, which is very strange, indeed very strange.The sixth younger sister came from the most important family background, so naturally they would be dismissive of them, that's why.

Before he knew it, the carriage had arrived in front of Xie's mansion. "Are you home?" There was a smile on Xie Ruinian's flushed face, and he became more energetic, "It's better to go home." It was uncomfortable to ride in the carriage, and finally arrived home.He and Xie Jinnian got out of the carriage hand in hand.

Xie Jinnian looked at his cousin beside him, feeling amused.Fifth Sister is really easy to coax, she will believe anything she says.The fifth elder sister is a concubine, no matter how generous the eldest aunt treats her, she will not raise her carefully.She doesn't know much about the new things in the capital.

After Xie Ruinian and Xie Jinnian came back, they greeted Ann at the old lady's place and went back to their rooms.Xie Ruinian went back to his yard, and Xie Jinnian went to the fourth wife's place.The fourth wife was embroidering a bellyband under the window, when she saw her daughter coming in, she smiled softly and said: "Jin'er is back."

"Mother, did you make it for Xiao Bai'er again?" Xie Jinnian picked up the bellyband and looked at it. The fish was playing among the lotus leaves, it was cute and cute, no need to ask, it must be for Xie Bainian.The fourth wife looked affectionate, "Bai'er is young, and she can't sleep well at night. It's much better to wear a bellyband, so as not to catch cold." The fourth wife, like ordinary mothers, loves the youngest son the most.

Xie Jinnian sat next to the fourth wife, chatting about all kinds of things in the Nanning Hou Mansion.Who have you met, who have you talked to, how kind and friendly Madam Nanning Hou is, how approachable the Princess Hanshan is... The fourth wife listened attentively, and said with a smile: "Your father and Nanning Hou are on good terms. Waiting for you to be affectionate."

Xie Jinnian curled his lips, "It's not enough, they treat Xiao Wu and Xiao Qi very affectionately." Princess Hanshan also deliberately kept Xiao Qi.I am a prostitute, and Xiao Wu and Xiao Qi are concubines, how can they treat each other as one?It is reasonable to treat yourself more kindly.

The Fourth Wife opened her mouth a few times, and swallowed the words again.The Marquis of Nanning was originally a concubine of the Yue family, and Mrs. Hou's life experience was also different. Their family really didn't care about concubines or backgrounds.

Xie Jinnian was young after all, but it was just an occasional unhappiness in his heart, and he quickly put it aside.He also told the fourth wife about the wives and ladies of each family, which wife had the most pomp, which lady had a beautiful face and long sleeves and was good at dancing, which lady had a good temper, and which lady had a blessed appearance.Although the fourth wife stayed at home as a filial piety and was inconvenient to go out, she was still interested in these matters, and the mother and daughter talked very speculatively.

Thinking of Xie Ruinian's doubts, thinking of the Wu sisters, Xie Jinnian couldn't help stretching out his sleeves, covering his mouth and laughing.The fifth sister only saw that Wu Xuan and Wu Peng were generous and carefree, but they didn't know that their two families were in chaos and there was no peace in their homes.Of course, no matter how dirty things are going on at home, the young lady of the duke's family is still very graceful when she goes out.

"Fifth sister actually envies Wu Xuan and Wu Peng." Xie Jinnian became more and more happy when he thought about it, "Mother, look, fifth sister is really funny." The girl doesn't go out very often, so how could she know about this?" Only my mother and son could do whatever they wanted.If you laugh at your cousin in front of everyone, that's fine.

Xie Jinnian smiled and nodded, "Mother said yes, my daughter remembered it." Seeing her daughter happy, the fourth wife was also happy in her heart, "If you want to talk about a noble daughter in the boudoir, it's better for a family like our Xie family. People like the Wu family The Duke’s family is actually far behind.” The mother and daughter looked at each other and smiled knowingly.
