Chapter 658: Slip Away
After receiving the silver ticket sent by the lord of Shang Shaobao, Liu Qingqing was so young that he couldn't control the expression on his face at all, is the lord of Shang Shaobao sending a beggar? Give her a hundred taels of silver, what can she do? It's not like this to send people!
Seeing that her daughter was about to get angry, Mrs. Liu hurriedly grabbed her and whispered to her that they couldn't annoy the lord of Shang Shaobao, and they were still thinking about recruiting someone to be their son-in-law! How could they get angry at the slightest trivial matter and attack an insignificant subordinate? What if someone came was angry and went back to complain to the lord of Shang Shaobao? If you don't come this time, don't worry, it's the end of the year! Who is not busy? Wait for the next year to invite someone here, anyway, this son-in-law will not be able to run away.
Liu Qingqing was persuaded by her mother, but their mother and daughter forgot a very important thing, the person who can be sent out to do things, in the eyes of the master, will not be an insignificant subordinate, and they will be martial, the mother and daughter of the Liu family are just ordinary people, they think that they speak very quietly, others can't hear it, but they don't know that they can hear it clearly.
The person who came originally had a good impression of Liu Qingqing before, and felt that she was much stronger than the nieces and nieces of the lord of the castle, after all, she could make her master show her face.
The deacons' plans, except for the lord of Shang Shaobao, everyone else saw it, and the people of the lord of Shang Shaobao felt that the deacons thought too much, Miss Liu was a good girl, she would not calculate the master, they didn't tell the master, they just wanted to slap the deacons in the face with facts.
What people didn't expect was that their faces would be crooked by Miss Liu, and when they heard what Mrs. Liu said, they couldn't help but have more eyes, and after leaving Liu's house, they quietly found the servant woman next to Mrs. Liu to investigate.
Among the servants that Mrs. Liu was waiting for, there was one who was greedy for money and was very good at speaking, so Mrs. Liu relied on her very much, and someone came to find her, gave her a tael of silver, and she sold Liu Qingqing's mother and daughter.
After going back, the people who came didn't know how to report to the lord of Shang Shaobao, so they had to tell their companions that everyone knew that the mother and daughter of the Liu family invited their master to come to the door in order to let their husband cook rice and rice, so as to force the master to marry Liu Qingqing as his wife, and they couldn't help blushing angrily.
When the deacons found out, they couldn't help but laugh at them, "What's so angry about this? You are rare and strange, people with the identity of your master, there are many people who want to climb up, and the young castle lord is young now, and because the castle lord's wife wants to kiss and kiss wholeheartedly, so he will think that the girl outside is better than the lady's family." ”
There is no way, the young castle master of their family is a strong temper, the lady sees that her niece and niece are all good, and the young castle master insists on going against his own mother, the more his mother praises the nieces and nieces, the more the son finds them annoying.
Although the deacons also felt that the nieces and nieces of the lady's maiden family were not very good, they knew that the people who the young castle lord looked down on were even worse.
Look, the mother and daughter had people buy medicine, and they were going to give him medicine when they were going to give him a banquet for the young castle lord, so as to accomplish this family affair, if she was really a good girl with self-esteem and self-respect, how could she allow her mother to calculate people like this? And according to what they found, the reason why the young castle lord came to Shuilan City in a hurry was all because of Liu Qingqing's calculations.
The wife of the lord of Shang Shaobao will take on the heavy responsibility of being the mother of the house in the future, and it is understandable to be scheming, but it is impossible to act like this.
Not to mention that they can't get used to it, even after the young castle master knows about it, he is afraid that he can't tolerate it.
"By the way, I remember that there were people on the Western side of the country who were plotting against their family?" asked one of the deacons.
"Yes. The person next to the young castle lord replied, "We have checked, the errand workers in the two shops are all from Xiyue, and the shop does not look big on the outside, but there is actually a lot of mystery inside." ”
One of the deacons asked curiously, "What's the mystery in there? It can't be a secret passage or a secret room, right?"
"Exactly. Those who came with the two women, those with heavy accents dug tunnels and secret rooms behind the shop, and those who spoke young without an accent worked as buddies in the shop. ”
The deacons exchanged glances and didn't say anything, but the people of Shang Shaobao Lord saw it in their eyes and couldn't help but exchange glances with each other, it seemed that the deacons had a plan, so they didn't know what they were going to do?
"Inform the people guarding the Liu family, if the mother and daughter of the Liu family invite the young castle master to go again, let them remember to notify us. ”
"What do you want to do?"
"Don't worry, we won't harm the young castle master. ”
"No, if you don't make it clear to us, we won't inform you. "They are responsible for protecting the young lord of the castle, and no one will be allowed to harm the master, not even the deacons in the fort.
The deacons looked at each other for a long time, one side was young and vigorous like the rising sun, and the other side was calm and old like the afterglow of the sunset.
"Well, for your faithfulness's sake, I will give you an account. ”
The other deacons hurriedly opened their mouths to stop him, but they were asked by the deacon, "Since they are loyal to the Lord, they must not bear to see their master being deceived, how can a character like Liu Qingqing bear the responsibility of being the housewife of Yuntianbao?"
The lady of the lord of Shangbao is partial to her mother's family, but at least what people do is on the bright side, even if she wants to be close to her mother's family, but so far, she has not forced the lord of Shaobao to marry her cousin, let alone use the means that the mother and daughter of the Liu family want to use.
The deacons stopped him, and the deacons confessed to the people of the lord of Shang Shaobao.
After listening to the deacons' plans, the people of the Lord of Shang Shaobao couldn't help but ask, "Aren't we interfering in the master's marriage like this?"
"How can this interfere with the master's marriage? You must know that the castle lord did not agree to the young castle lord marrying Liu Qingqing. ”
The young castle lord himself didn't even think about marrying her, if he really had this intention, he would have gone back to discuss the marriage with the castle lord a long time ago, how could he run to the hot spring village of the owner of Ye Zhuang to avoid going home for the New Year to face his mother's forced marriage.
I have to say that the deacons do know themselves better than Shang Shaobao, he has a heart for Liu Qingqing, but this mind is still unknown, and he doesn't have a strong love for men and women, and he wants to stay with him for a long time.
The deacons and their subordinates discussed this time, naturally they were hiding it from the lord of Shang Shaobao, and in the hot spring village, there were Li Qianqian and their wife accompanying the owner of Ye Zhuang, and the owner of Ye Zhuang did not like to snub the brothers.
There is the owner of Ye Zhuang who is there, how can he tolerate the cranky thinking of the lord of Shang Shaobao, drinking and punching and making jubilation, drinking to the rise, the brothers catch the right trick from time to time, the men are happy, and the women are recuperating because of the excessive blood loss of the Ye Zhuang owner's wife, and Lan Tang is frightened when he saves people, so he naturally has to raise it, and it is not like the man who makes a lot of trouble.
But although you can't drink and make a fuss, but the women also have their own ways of playing, they don't like to sing poems against each other, and they are people who often walk around on weekdays.
It's just that Mrs. Ye Zhuang's emotions can't be too ups and downs, and it didn't take long for Lan Tang to let her rest.
After returning to the room, Li Qianqian and Zhang Duoli buried themselves in the design of the hot spring inn, Lan Tang looked at the two of them and smiled, "You two are really working hard, you are going to celebrate the New Year, and you are still busy like this." ”
Li Qianqian ignored her and asked Liu Yi about the four elders.
Originally, Li Qianqian wanted to stay at the helm for the New Year, but the four elders were afraid that his wife would take the opportunity to entangle Li Qianqian, so he made it clear to her that he would go back to his house in Shuilan City for the New Year, and he hadn't gotten along with his children and grandchildren for some days, and wanted to take the opportunity to get together.
Li Qianqian understood what he meant, and didn't say anything, just handed him the New Year's gift for their family, and sent him out of the rudder.
Therefore, this year, although there are sect leaders and four elders in Shuilan City, the rudder of the New Year is still presided over by the rudder master.
Liu Yi couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard Li Qianqian ask about the four elders, "Mrs. Zhang's temperament probably won't change, and the older she gets, the more stubborn and difficult she becomes, no matter what the four elders tell her, her mind just can't turn around." ”
Li Qianqian smiled back at him, "As long as her hand doesn't reach into the Rui Yao Sect, she can toss it as she wants!"
"Aren't you afraid that the fourth elder will be annoyed by her, so he will accept her request?"
"Do you think he's that kind of person?"
Liu Yi shook his head with a smile, "He still has a sense of proportion in his heart." ”
If your own family is doing well, you can pull your relatives along, so naturally you won't stand idly by, but there are not many people like Mrs. Zhang.
"I know he's measured. Li Qianqian sighed, "How about his sons?"
Liu Yi whispered about the character of the sons of the Zhang family, and said, "Looking at the meaning of the four elders, they want to hand over the tea shop to the eldest son, and then let the other sons help take care of it." ”
"He just has a plan in mind. ”
"I'm afraid that Mrs. Zhang will see that this business is easy to do, and she will let her mother's family intervene. "Liu Yi really thinks that marrying a wife like Mrs. Zhang, the four elders really didn't cultivate in their previous life!
Li Qianqian glanced at him and smiled, "Mrs. Zhang is not bad, that is, in her heart, the weight of her husband's family and children is far less important than her mother's family, and having a daughter like her is a blessing for her mother's family." ”
Taking care of her mother's family like this, for decades, having such a daughter, Mrs. Zhang's family is really a blessing!
Liu Yi laughed, if his mother-in-law was like Mrs. Zhang, his father and mother would definitely not be able to tolerate her.
Li Qianqian heard what Liu Yi said, and said, "Maybe Mrs. Zhang would not be like this when she was young, but she has no in-laws, and her husband is often not around. ”
Seeing Liu Yi's thoughtful expression, Li Qianqian said, "The matter of the tea shop in Nanchu is handed over to the four elders, but the tea shops in other places have to find someone else to cooperate." ”
Liu Yi thought for a moment and asked, "We must find someone to cooperate, can't we grow tea ourselves?"
Li Qianqian smiled, "Naturally, yes, but do we have talents? Does anyone have the mind to grow tea and make tea? If not, of course it is to cooperate with other people's tea shops." ”
"But in this way, the quality of the tea sold in each teahouse and teahouse may be uneven. ”
"I can't help it, I don't want to put all my eggs in one basket. Li Qianqian said to Liu Yi, "Even if there is no hidden worry about Mrs. Zhang, I will not use all the tea used in teahouses and teahouses from the same tea house." ”
Leo Yi didn't understand, "Why is that?"
"You must know that although we are all on the Zhongzhou continent now, we are not governed by the same country, each country has its own emperor, each of them acts in a different way, and each country has constant conflicts between them, if that country is provoked to start a war that day......" she did not continue, but let Liu Yi resemble himself.
Liu Yi thought about it for a while and couldn't help but secretly sigh, at present, it seems that every country is very calm, but they all know that the reason why Li Jingshi went to Eastern Qi was for what, wasn't it to strangle the ambition of the thirteen princes of Eastern Qi?
Once there is a war, the traffic between countries may be interrupted, if all the teahouses and teahouses under the name of Ruiyao Sect use the tea made by the four elders, there will be a possibility of running out of stock at that time.
Liu Yi secretly said in his heart, he had to say hello to the four elders when he turned around.
Li Qianqian looked at his expression, and said to him with a smile, "The fourth elder still mentioned me about this matter, but you want to tell him that it is you and his affection." ”
Liu Yi smiled and nodded, and talked about the affairs of Grandma Zhang's concubines.
Of course, Mrs. Zhang's family may have been very worry-free back then, but they were raised by Mrs. Zhang's actions, thinking that since they had their own sisters, they would have benefited from not having to come forward, so why not?
People's hearts are unpredictable, not to mention such a long-term connivance, how many people in the world can bear it and not covet those benefits?
In the house of the four elders, Mrs. Zhang smashed a room of tea sets and cried very embarrassed, but the four elders looked indifferent, and they were not moved by his wife's anger at all.
Several sons of the Zhang family looked outside, but their faces were very plain, but the faces of the young ladies of the Zhang family were not very good-looking.
"Why are you so ruthless, watching your daughters and sons-in-law suffer and suffer?"
"As I said, this tea shop is the job I am looking for for my sons, as for the daughters and sons-in-law, you are the sons-in-law's family is dead? The future of their sons, their own parents will not plan for them? Do you want a mother-in-law to help Zhang Luo? They are married to the daughters of the Zhang family, not into the Zhang family. The four elders' eyes were outward, and the young ladies of the Zhang family didn't expect their father to look out, so they hurriedly lowered their heads and shrunk their necks to escape their father's sharp eyes.
It's just that the four elders have accumulated a lot of power in recent years, and at that glance, even the young masters of the Zhang family can't bear their father's eyes, let alone the young ladies of the Zhang family who stay in the inner house.
"My son's life is miserable! How can there be a ruthless father like you, who doesn't plan for their future. ”
Mrs. Zhang was crying and shouting, but the children outside had already quietly slipped away for fear of their father's sharp eyes, so Mrs. Zhang was crying and shouting inside, but no one came in to help them.
