Lord, don't be afraid, the princess is not angry

Chapter 190
Speaking of making tea, Princess Ji also thought of another thing, "I heard people say a few days ago that a deputy Dianjun in the house wants to marry Aunt Qinglan, but is it true?"

Concubine Ji doesn't like to listen to gossip, and the girls around her don't say such things to disturb her tranquility, so the gossip she hears is always a little behind.

"There is such a thing, but Aunt Qinglan has already refused."

It was back, but Aunt Qinglan still received tea from Miaocheng from time to time, and she heard that some of them were made by him.His family was originally a tea farmer, and he learned it when he was a child, and he still hasn't forgotten many steps.When he returned to the countryside to worship his ancestors during the Qingming Festival, he picked tea leaves from his own mountain, made tea himself and gave it to Qinglan.Qinglan didn't know about this at first, and when he asked Xiao Lin to bring the tea, she didn't smell like it was worth anything, so she accepted it. Later, he heard from his niece and daughter-in-law.

The tea house that Qinglan would go to was right next to the bookshop where Miaozhen took copying jobs. His legs and feet were inconvenient, so his wife would accompany him when he went to hand in the job.When the two came out of the bookstore, they would stand outside the tea house for a while, and they would run into Qing Lan a few times.Miao Zhen's daughter-in-law is a little naive, she dare not go up to talk to her when she sees Qinglan, she just keeps looking at her and smiling, and only when Qinglan looks over gently, she will boldly go up and say a few words to her, I will also give her a purse.Qinglan didn't want to accept it at first, but she ran away as soon as she stuffed her things, and left Miao Zhen with a handicap, so Qinglan had to cry and laugh before she refused.

Zhuhua also heard about this in secret. She didn't ask Qinglan, but she also found out that Miao Cheng still had no plans to marry other women. These days, some people approached him as a matchmaker, but he rejected all the offers that were good. up.Zhuhua thought that if he did this for Qinglan, maybe one day he would be able to move Qinglan to embrace her as a beauty.

When autumn came, Sun Daniu came to Beijing.Now that he is doing business outside, he has already adopted another name, but others will not call him by his name, they all call him shopkeeper Xiaosun.When he arrived at the Hou Mansion, Sun and the others naturally still called him Daniel.He got married at the beginning of the year, and now his daughter-in-law is also pregnant.Counting his age, he is nineteen now, and at this age in the countryside, he is considered late in getting married.His mother was dazzled by his marriage, and he was bent on getting married later, so it was delayed until this time.Fortunately, he got his wife pregnant in less than half a year, and he had an explanation to his family, so he continued his business business after his daughter-in-law was three months pregnant.Because of his marriage, he delayed his work for half a year, and the caravan caused a lot of troubles. If he didn't go out again, he might not be able to continue.

Zhuhua hasn't seen Yinhua since she got married, and she still remembers that he came to see her before they returned to the capital from Lijiacun that year.At that time, the 14-year-old boy even got her some wild fruits from the mountains to taste. Naturally, he also greeted other people, and asked her in a low voice when they were not paying attention, if she was about to get engaged after returning to the capital.

"Hurry up." Zhuhua replied at that time, she thought that after returning to the capital, her family would definitely arrange frequent blind dates for her, and she estimated that she would make an appointment at the end of the year, but she didn't expect that it would be King Ping.

He didn't say much when he heard it, he just told her to be more careful and choose a good one, she naturally smiled and agreed, and also asked him to be more careful when picking a wife.I don't know if his current daughter-in-law is a good one, anyway, the man she married is a good one, I believe he has heard more or less.

When he saw him in Zhongguo Hou's mansion, he was still a bit embarrassed, he didn't dare to look at Zhuhua, and called her cautiously: "Princess."

"What kind of concubine is it called? No one in the house calls it that, so you should call me Third Sister." Zhuhua said carelessly.

"Okay, third sister." He called out immediately, showing a hearty smile.

The four of them gathered in the Hou Mansion and chatted, Yue Yue and the little tiger obediently played on the edge of the ground with the toys brought by Daniel.Zhuhua asked him about his experiences as a businessman, and when he heard about the dangers and profits, she admired his decision.Daniu also thanked Mrs. Sun for trusting him, contributed money for him, and gave him the name cards of Zhongguo Hou's Mansion and Liangzhou Governor's Mansion, which made it much easier for him to go to various state capitals.

Zhuhua heard this and asked: "Are these two posts enough for you now? Do you want me to help you get the post from Zhang Wuguo's mansion? I'm afraid the post from Ping Wang's mansion is useless."

"As long as the third sister finds it, it will definitely work." Daniel said.

In fact, it would be of great help to him if he could really get a post from Mrs. Wu's mansion. Mrs. Wu is a person who is in awe of both black and white. I heard that a caravan was robbed because of the relationship between the shopkeeper and the people in Mrs. Wu's mansion. , so that the person who robbed the road stopped.You must know that if you offend Wu Yinggong, she will be more ruthless than others.However, in the past few days since Da Niu went to the business, I haven't heard of anyone going on the road with a post from Wu Yinggong's mansion.

Zhuhua smiled, then got up and went to the outside to find Qiuchu, and after talking about the matter, she whispered: "Go and check on Aunt Yinxi's tone first, and if this is feasible, I will come to ask for it in person. , if it doesn’t work, I won’t bother you.”

"Yes." Qiuchu replied and went out.

The big cow who spoke inside didn't hear Zhuhua's words, but only heard Mrs. Sun saying that Zhuhua had a friendship with Mrs. Wu, and that this matter might really be done.Daniu also had some experience, after Zhuhua came in, he said, "Sister San, thank you for whether this can be done or not."

"You're welcome, didn't my mother also invest money? By the way, you didn't pull me in when you did this business together, and let me make a small fortune."

"You are already doing business in partnership with Mrs. Wu Guo's house, so there is no need to participate in this matter." Sun said from the side.

"Who can think that there is too much money?" Zhuhua spread her hands and said, then smiled again, "But since my mother has made money in business, I will be able to have the courage to come over for dinner in the future."

Every time she came to eat, Mrs. Sun was always afraid that she would not be able to eat well in Prince Ping's mansion, and would ask her to bring back a bunch of things, which made her feel embarrassed to go often.According to Sun, life at home is good now, as long as the intestines are not too prodigal, these family fortunes are enough for him to use for a lifetime, and she naturally has to treat her daughters better, after all, they couldn't suffer a lot when they were young, and their intestines were always there. Enjoy.To say that when Changzi was first born, Sun really loved him, and of course it hurts now, but gradually Changchang grew up and became skinier, and had the same temper as Cheng Dashan, which often made her unable to bear it. Feeling angry, comparing these two, she prefers the caring daughter who is married.

Everyone chatted for a while before dinner was served. Daniel originally wanted to live in an inn outside, but Mrs. Sun insisted on keeping him in the Hou's residence.In the evening, after school, Changzi heard that Daniel was coming, so he ran home happily, and chatted with Daniel beside him.After a while, King Ping also brought the two young ones to the Hou Mansion.King Ping knew about Daniu, but it was the first time they had met. Daniel and Xu Mu were quite familiar, but Xu Mu had business to come over for dinner today.

At this time, Qiu Chu who went to question Zhuhua also came back, she and Zhuhua went to the corner, and said: "The maidservant and Aunt Yinxi talked about this, but Auntie said that this little thing, Wu Yinggong will naturally agree, that is. I want my servants to come and ask my uncle if his caravan is still short of people, there are quite a few retired veterans in the Heroine’s Mansion who have nowhere to go, ask if we want them?"

"Okay, I see." Zhuhua replied thoughtfully.

It happened that the next day was the day when Wu Yinggong came to the other house to play with the group, and Yinxi also came over, so she took the opportunity to go up to check the situation first.

"How about it, can your cousin agree?" Yinxi and Zhuhua asked her once they got to the side.

"Of course he agreed, but I don't understand why you don't do this business yourself since Mrs. Wu Ying has someone on hand?"

"We did it before. The shopkeeper at that time was also a good businessman, but he couldn't keep the money, and he especially liked to play two games. The money he made in the end of the business was cheaper for the casino."

"Wu Yinggong doesn't care too much?"

"The master didn't see this idea of ​​money. Besides, there are rules and regulations. He can't control it himself. No wonder others. Originally, this was just for me to practice and play. The people below seem to know that they don't care about money. Not to mention being careless, he developed a bad temper. Naturally, this business can no longer be done later, so as not to ruin the reputation of the master. Your cousin should not be like this, right?"

"I can only say that he will not be like this now, and no one can say what will happen in the future."

In her previous life, Zhuhua was also a person who had been in the business world. She had seen many cases of brothers turning against friends and breaking up friendships, so she had some reservations about human nature.She believes that human nature will change due to the influence of time and the environment, some people will become bad and some will become better, she cannot guarantee other people, even she cannot guarantee that her own temperament will remain the same.At least now compared to her previous life, her temper has been restrained a lot. Perhaps it is because of the tempering of life and death that she has experienced more time, which made her look down a lot and know how to cherish blessings.

"Actually, being a businessman is very profitable..."

"Mr. Wuguo's Mansion wants a partnership?" Zhuhua asked tentatively.

"If it's your own business, I'll just say that." Yinxi chose to do business for the first time when she did business. She thought that there were people in the Gonggong's mansion, and even a few clever people could do business. Who would have thought that these people were used to being wild, and their hands were loose, and in the end such an easy business was ruined by them, and she didn't think about doing business again for several years.

But she has been in partnership with Zhuhua for so many years, and she has indeed made a lot of money for Duke Wuying's mansion. Now that she heard that there is someone doing business in Zhuhua's place, she has changed her mind again.Moreover, not all the retired sergeants who have been in this line of work before are bad.

"It's okay, I can just tell my cousin, but he is not yet twenty, and he has grown a beard on purpose in order to pretend to be old, I'm afraid those people you introduced will not obey."

"Don't worry, I'll let them obey. They don't dare to lose face of Wu Yinggong in front of others. In fact, they just have fewer people to watch, and they still obey the orders from above."

Zhuhua nodded. When she and Daniel were discussing manpower yesterday, she also mentioned whether to let Wu Yinggong partner in this business.Daniu has no one in his hands. The people who were originally partners with him broke up with him at the beginning of the year and started another job.When he came to the capital, he also intended to borrow some manpower from Cheng Dashan. He thought that Cheng Dashan would definitely not know the soldiers who had retired from the army, and there might be some who would be willing to do this job.But before he opened the mouth to Cheng Dashan, Zhuhua mentioned to him the people from Wuguo's mansion.It's not that he underestimated Uncle Cheng, the people under him were not as skilled as the people under Wu Yinggong.

After searching for a day, Zhuhua was the host, and invited Daniu and Yinxi to sit down and talk, and the matter was settled.Yinxi originally wanted to give Zhuhua a share of the profit, but Zhuhua didn't want it. Anyway, this business has the Zhongguo Houfu's share, just like she has her share.She is really not short of money now, the only thing she can worry about is if there will be a day of poverty in the future, will there be a place where she can eat, so that she will not starve to death.

After finishing this matter, Daniel soon left the capital, and for the next six months he took his large caravan around, earning a lot of money in Liangzhou just by selling silk and porcelain. Money, let alone anything else.When Mrs. Sun got the generous bonus, she thought that Zhuhua was also responsible for it, but she didn't give her the money pretentiously, but every time Zhuhua came to the Hou's mansion, she was asked to bring back more food, like The pork, fish, and pheasant that Mrs. Sun marinated with her own hands, Zhuhua really wanted to tell her that she also had Zhuangzi, and there were many good things from Zhuangzi, but Mrs. Sun loved to give them away, so she didn't want to stop her .Sometimes it is also a pleasure to give something to others and see the other party accepting it with satisfaction.

When autumn comes, Yinhua and Zhuhua's due date is approaching, so it's not good for her to run outside all the time, and it will be bad if something happens to her on the way.However, she communicated with Yinhua that she should walk around the courtyard more before the weather is completely cold so that the delivery will be smoother, and she made an appointment to measure the waist together when the New Year's Lantern Festival is over. Lose 100 taels of silver.

Zhuhua is very confident that she can win, even if Yinhua will give birth earlier than her and recover sooner, but according to her understanding of Yinhua's greediness, Yinhua will not lose weight properly, and she is sure to win the 100 taels of silver up.

Sun also had no choice but to make a private bet on this matter with her two daughters, but as long as they gave birth safely, she would turn a blind eye to the next thing.

One day in mid-November, Yinhua started in the morning. She had experience this time, and she didn't cry or anything.While there was still time in the middle, she ate, and then walked back and forth in the delivery room, waiting for Wenpo and the others to come.

Seeing the servants rushing in and out, the little tiger knew that Yinhua was about to give birth, so he followed her to the delivery room.

"Mother, is little sister coming out?" Little Tiger asked with some fear.

"Come out soon, do you like little sister?" Yinhua patted his head and said.

"I like it." The little tiger nodded, and said, "I like my little brother even more."

"why?"

"Little brother is obedient and not fierce. My aunt's cousin is very fierce and not fun; the second goose is also fierce."

How can a girl's family be more fierce than a boy, Yinhua thought to herself, and asked: "What's wrong with Tuantuan, did she hit you?"

"No. She is fierce, and she can read a lot of words, more than me."

After Yinhua heard this, she had only one thought at the moment, that when she finished her confinement, she must let the little tiger learn to read well, and she might as well lose to Tuantuan, who was a few years younger in Zhuhua's family.

Soon, Mrs. Sun and Mrs. Wen came, and the little tiger was carried out by Xia Bai.
