"But, eldest brother, third brother, what about Bao Qian? And the eldest sister? They rely on the money in their hands? The old and sick people, if they are bullied, they have no ability to resist, how long can those silver last? How can Aunt Mei give them too much? I can't do such a thing, I can't have a clear conscience. Fang Qirui stuck to He Jiaxian and muttered to himself, as if he was telling her and himself.

"But if I keep carrying them on my shoulders and wait for Baoqian to take over after more than ten years, I am unwilling, really unwilling. Ah Xian, you don't know, I'm doing business now, I can't devote myself wholeheartedly, I'm thinking, these things I earned, I called, and the names are not right, one day, all of them are making wedding clothes for others. When the time comes, my son will be empty-handed. Will he complain about me? Why did my father give all the money to my brother? And he didn't have anything?" Fang Qirui seems to be very good on the surface these days, but in fact, his heart is on fire.

He Jiaxian heard it for a while before he said: "I didn't know that you had also thought about this, I still regarded you as a saint, and I made up my mind to keep the family business for Baoqian, so my aunt asked me to persuade you to study, and I didn't want to persuade you." ”

Fang Qirui sneered and pointed at the tip of her nose: "Don't put a high hat on me, I'm not." ”

He Jiaxian smiled and said, "Now I naturally know that you are not." Now that I understand your intentions today, why don't I help you become the Lord? Today, Yuzhu taught me a trick, which is called the bottom of the kettle. ”

Fang Qirui was puzzled, and He Jiaxian said: "Life is in the world, but the word for peace and happiness, I know that you think the same as I think." You only thought about your troubles, but you didn't think about the Fang family's troubles. I also thought about this for a long time before I thought about what it meant. Since you said it today, then I will say it directly. Instead of dragging mud and water, and when the time comes, it is better to cut the mess quickly. ”

"The third brother is addicted to Wushisan, and the doctor said that he can't force the abstinence, but can he be cured slowly and reduce the time of dependence? He Jiaxian said slowly: "There is also the eldest sister, although she is married, but now she is abandoned, she is a member of our Fang family." The eldest brother and the third brother are her own brothers, which is different from ours who are separated by a belly. If the eldest sister, sister-in-law and third brother join forces to take charge of the family and keep the family business for Baoqian, you will open up another country and set up your own door, and in the end, no one will be able to say anything reasonable, nor can you find any fault. What do you think. ”

Fang Qirui sighed after hearing this: "I once thought that after selling the shop, I would give all the silver to the second uncle to take care of, so that Bao Qian could grow up and inherit it." I also feel that the empire that my ancestors worked hard to build is not easy, and it is also my great unfilial piety to be buried like this. I am also worried that Baoqian will sit on empty mountains in the future and will not want to forge ahead. Your idea is a bit interesting, the eldest sister is an outsider, so naturally it is impossible to swallow the property to Brother Han, otherwise heaven and earth will not allow it. The third brother is now afraid that he will not be able to marry a wife and have children, but when he understands it, he can manage the accounts and be considered self-reliant. Besides, there is a big brother watching, one is in charge of the account, and the other is in the outside account. It's just the ...... of the eldest sister showing her face."

"In ancient times, there was a queen mother who listened to the government, what is this. He Jiaxian said without thinking.

Fang Qirui nodded, didn't notice the loophole in her words, and said with a smile: "You can try, it's a good way." ”

"Well, it's just that when we say this, it will inevitably make people think that you want to pick and choose, or have other intentions, and it's not good to be speculated around. He Jiaxian said: "I am also the only one who said that you are your own sister in the end, so you have to take care of it, so I remembered." You can ask Yulu to talk about this. ”

When Fang Qirui heard this, Fang Qirui's eyes lit up, and he looked He Jiaxian up and down for a long time before he said, "Your growth is simply beyond my expectations." ”

He Jiaxian struck while the iron was hot: "And you, I also have a trick to draw salary, you see if you are willing." After speaking, he whispered a few words in Fang Qirui's ear.

Fang Qirui was stunned at first, and then said in a half-loud voice: "I have to think about it, and this matter must be treated carefully." ”

He Jiaxian nodded: "No matter what choice you make, I will support you." ”

Fang Qirui hugged her in his arms and whispered, "Virtuous help." When you first entered the door, you were jerky and jerky, but now the idea in your heart is bigger than mine. ”

He Jiaxian was silent, and only quietly felt the beauty of mutual trust between husband and wife at this moment.

Outside the door, Hongmei smiled and said, "The fourth aunt and grandmother are here." ”

He Jiaxian said: "Don't speak, and listen to me." ”

Fang Qirui nodded.

As soon as Fang Yulu entered the door, he said to Fang Qirui: "Second brother." ”

He Jiaxian also signaled He Jiaxian to avoid, looking like he wanted to speak and stopped.

He Jiaxian said: "Tinglan Courtyard is now in charge, and it is the same if you have anything to tell me." Anyway, the left and right are just asking for silver. ”

Fang Yulu saw that she didn't have a good attitude at the beginning, and was about to open her mouth to ridicule her for being stingy, when she saw her talking, she got up and went to take the silver ticket and count it in her hand.

He Jiaxian counted it over and over again before holding it in his hand and not saying it to her.

Fang Yulu swallowed the sarcastic words, smiled and hugged He Jiaxian's shoulder: "The second sister-in-law is really caring." ”

With such a speed of changing his face, He Jiaxian thought about it for a while, but still felt that he couldn't catch up in this life.

raised the silver ticket in his hand, but did not give it to Fang Yulu, hanging her appetite: "The silver can be given, there are conditions." ”

As soon as Fang Yulu heard that the conditions were going to be discussed, the joy on her face faded away, and she sat down and spoke slowly: "Then it depends on how much you give, whether it's worth it for me to do." ”

He Jiaxian said: "Your second brother and I have a total of two thousand taels in our hands, and all of them are given to you." ”

Fang Yulu pouted and said, "Less." ”

He Jiaxian said: "Not only are you too little, but I am also too little." How rich you are when you are your second brother, the seals are in the hands of Aunt Mei. Not to mention the silver, she even had to nod her head when it came in. ”

Fang Yulu listened to her resentful tone, and knew that the two of them probably had a disagreement because of this matter, so she said, "That's also your own business, what does it have to do with me." ”

He Jiaxian said: "It has nothing to do with you, but I didn't get any benefits from your second brother." She even guards against us, and one person is in power, and she won't let us go at all. ”

Fang Qirui listened to her talk like this, and generally understood how she was going to achieve her goal, so he didn't speak, just sat on the side and pretended to read.

Fang Yulu saw that he acquiesced, and knew that it was also what he meant, so she no longer had a weird spirit, and made her words clear: "Isn't this a normal thing? You only look at her ability to reach the sky now, but she swallowed her anger at the beginning, and even Fang Yuyan was deliberately arrogant like that by my mother, she can endure all the disasters and disasters, and take her daughter's life as a bet, you know that she is a powerful person." What do you think of her?"

These words are seven points true, three points are angry, Fang Qirui's face turned pale when he heard it, but he also understood that what she said was the truth, and he didn't refute it, as if he hadn't heard it, but got up and put it in the book and walked out.

Fang Yulu was startled, thinking that Fang Qirui was angry, seeing that He Jiaxian's face was normal and had no intention of being nervous, she thought about it and said, "It's just that now she is in charge of the life and death of the entire Fang family alone, and no one can help her." You should be obedient and be a puppet to make money, maybe she will be in a good mood and reward you with a little luck. ”

After speaking, he sighed, very helpless, but with a little yearning: "Look at the changes in this Fang Mansion, I didn't dare to recognize it when I first came back." This pavilion, the elegance of the small bridge and flowing water, I am afraid that it cost a lot of silver. Compared with those gold, silver and jade, this is the quiet arrogance and lewdness. I'm just afraid that I'm in Bingzhou, and it's better to be here than to keep the mansion too much. And today I bumped into her eating Guanyan, which is a tribute, I don't know where she got the ability to enjoy it. If I hadn't seen the box containing bird's nest, the same as the one I saw last time in the hands of the princess of Yanwangfu, I would have thought it was a vision. ”

He Jiaxian heard what she said scary, glanced back at Fang Qirui, saw that his face was as usual, and interrupted Fang Yulu's words: "Don't talk about this, you just need to know it yourself." I'm just asking you, do you want these two thousand taels of silver? ”

"Naturally, yes. Fang Yulu opened her mouth without thinking.

He Jiaxian said: "Since you want it, then you have agreed to what I said." ”

Fang Yulu was secretly fooled, and said angrily: "I still don't know what you said and how to agree." ”

He Jiaxian said: "I won't let you lose money." There are two cases, one is that you hide your third brother in the carriage and take it away, so that no one will find out, and ask a doctor to give him five stones. ”

Fang Yulu was startled again, and when she was about to ask Fang Qirui if she agreed, she suddenly remembered that he was no longer in the house.

"Is this what you mean, or is it what the second brother meant?" Fang Yulu asked again for the sake of caution.

He Jiaxian remained silent: "The silver was given to you by me, so naturally it is what I mean." ”

Fang Yulu saw that He Jiaxian waited for Fang Qirui to go out before talking about this matter, thinking that he had a dislike with Aunt Mei, Fang Qiye was more or less her own brother, although he was unwilling to wade into this troubled water, but in the end, for the sake of the silver's face, he should be in charge of it in both sense and reason, so he said: "Didn't you say that it couldn't be cured? I don't guarantee it." ”

He Jiaxian said: "I don't want to get rid of the five stones, I just want to be clear." ”

Fang Yulu saw that the request was not excessive, so after a few ponders, she agreed, and asked, "There is another one." ”

"You go and tell the eldest sister and ask her to come forward to help manage a few shops, there are not many, Xianggong is so busy that his feet don't touch the ground, why only let him work alone, and the rest of the people sit back and enjoy it!" He Jiaxian pretended to be very angry.

Fang Yulu glanced at He Jiaxian: "Aren't you afraid that the second brother will know your plan and settle accounts with you?"

At first glance, He Jiaxian was reserving reserve strength for taking over the Fang family, and she was quite bold.

He Jiaxian pouted: "Just take care of a few small shops, let the second master free up his hands to do big things, why not? The eldest sister and the women and children, what ability can take the family business away from the second master? I just can't see that one by one is waiting for the second master to feed." Those who are tired and tired can't get a benefit, they want to be tired and everyone is tired together, and they have to pull a cushion to die. ”

Fang Yulu thought that this was also human nature, and it was better to have an extra sister to help than to invite outsiders, so she nodded and said, "Since you are not weak-hearted, why don't you go directly to Aunt Mei, but instead look for me secretly?"

He Jiaxian sneered: "Some people can't get a tael of silver, but some people just want to make a big deal." Haven't you heard of grasping the big and letting go of the small? Besides, since it makes people uncomfortable, it is not comfortable. She wants to hold the power in the hands of one person, and I prefer to delegate the power and let everyone be exposed. ”

Fang Yulu saw that He Jiaxian was really shallow, thinking that she was angry with Aunt Mei and made some small stumbling blocks angry, and secretly said that the dog meat was not allowed to be eaten. If it were her, I was afraid that she would have to do the same thing as Aunt Mei to be stable.

The two sides negotiated, and Fang Yulu took the silver ticket.

Fang Qirui came back from a walk outside, saw He Jiaxian's relaxed appearance, and asked, "Is the negotiation completed?"

"Yes. He Jiaxian nodded: "Don't blame me for using such means." It's a pity that your sister is used to being suspicious and money-loving, if you say it bluntly, she will definitely think that we have the same heart as Aunt Mei, and we want to count her brothers and sisters. Rather than her not sincere help, I will be this cautious person, so that she knows that the fighting spirit between women is nothing more than those small things, so she will not think deeply. ”

Their plan is to take it one step at a time and slowly achieve their goal. lest Aunt Mei find out and make a stumbling block from it, and fall short.

Fang Yulu finally asked for silver from Aunt Mei, a total of five thousand taels. He Jiaxian saw that she had no intention of leaving after taking the silver, and couldn't help but wonder if she had betrayed herself.

Three days later, Fang Yuhe began to manage a jade shop with Aunt Mei in mind. Gold, silver and jade are generally closed to business, because they are precious and dazzling. Fang Yuhe doesn't need to show up to see too many people, but she is sitting in the store, and when a distinguished guest comes, the shopkeeper will invite her to receive one or two, and after a long time, she gradually adapts to it.

Fang Yulu stayed until the beginning of spring, and wrote a post, saying that it was rare for her to come back, and invited those ladies and ladies who had been friends with her before to come to Fangfu to play the spring banquet, and received a lot of responses.

Fangfu because of the large-scale expansion, the reputation has spread, has not been shown to outsiders, many ladies have heard of the ghostly workmanship, exquisite abnormal, although there is no Hou Mansion like the heritage, not as mellow as from home, but bright and elegant, unique.

On that day, Aunt Mei really arranged it properly, and temporarily bought thirty young little maids, and greeted guests at the door. Those with low status are two girls, and those with higher status are a few favored mothers. Even higher, such as Mrs. Xu and others, were personally received by Fang Yulu.

Fang Yuting was also invited, so naturally she also came.

On the contrary, it was Aunt Mei who has always shirked her identity and status, but she is just a concubine, so she will not participate.

Many ladies were in a contradictory mood, on the one hand, they looked down on her because of her current status, and on the other hand, they were full of curiosity about her, wanting to see what the young lady of the down-and-out Ge family was like. It's disdainful to say, but deep down I vaguely feel admiration.
