The prince sent ten families of people, all of whom were slaves of the family, and there were sixty or seventy people in total, but it was still not enough. These days, most of the people who come and go in the house are people, with girls for this upstart in the capital to choose.

Because on this day, Aunt Xiang came to look for Gu Qiluo, and happened to see her going out, and when she saw her coming, Gu Qiluo smiled and said: "I was about to go to find my aunt, but I didn't expect my aunt to come first." After speaking, let Xinghua go and make tea.

The two returned to the house and sat down, and Gu Qiluo said, "Auntie, did you come here because there is not much money in the public middle school's account?" ”

Aunt Xiang was a little embarrassed and said, "Isn't it?" Actually, I also know that the second young master has used a lot of money these days, but it's just ...... The second young master is sealed, not to mention anything else, even if this person moves around, it can't be like before, people don't say that we don't have money, but we have to say that we are a little family. Besides, after moving, adding so many things and so many people, what kind of money is not needed? I think now, I still have to help my grandmother fill it, and in a few days, when everything is in order, we should be thrifty, otherwise what will we use to support the daily expenses of this Hou Mansion? ”

Gu Qiluo said with a smile: "I told the second master before, but because I am busy these days, I haven't had time to talk to my aunt yet." The family does not distinguish between each other, and now the second master has a lot of silver because he has some valuable things in the north, and he should take out some of it into the public school. ……”

"This can't be helped, there is land in the house, there are Zhuangzi and a few shops, how can you use your money to enter the public school? It would be good to solve the urgent need for a while, if it becomes the norm. But it's not right. The uncle's money and rewards are not in the public middle school, and the hairy head in the river has not made any money, so only the second master will subsidize the public middle school. It's so unfair. ”

Gu Qiluo didn't wait for her to finish speaking, but Aunt Xiang solemnly refused, but she smiled and said, "That official made by the uncle, what else do we not understand?" A year's monthly money plus rewards is just enough to spend, and the grandmother is not in good health, and there are many places for pocket flowers. It's all a family, and the public school should pay for help, so why should I ask them? Not to mention the third master. He hasn't made any money yet. But our lord is different, in the last auction, he got hundreds of thousands of silver, not to mention that there are so many treasures. It's a big deal to have another auction. It is enough to take out 10% every year for public middle school spending. ”

Aunt Xiang is really moved, the land and shop of the Xiao Mansion have to support the flowers of a Hou Mansion, and they really can't make ends meet, and now she looks at Gu Qiluo sincerely, how can she not be tempted, but she still hesitated: "But your money, that's to do business." ”

"I can't use up all this capital to do business, let alone my business. That's to make money, and it's only going to make more and more money in the future. If I can't make money, why should I do it? That's not business, it's a loser. My aunt has probably heard about it, so she is a little jealous of me. To tell the truth, I am indeed a woman who does not rub sand in my eyes, and a woman like me will not have a good reputation, especially in the house, where our wives are all crushed by me. It's just that my aunt, although I am a strong person, I don't like to cause trouble, our wife is forcing me step by step, so that I can't bear it, and in the end, she is to blame. My aunt is generous, fair and peaceful, these days, I have secretly watched you act, no wonder even the side concubine Niangniang praised you, you are indeed a noble character, suddenly rich, but calm, should be added to things, still maintain a sense of awe and thrift, which is really rare in the house women. ”

"Grandma praised me so much that I was embarrassed." Aunt Xiang breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, she had admired Gu Qiluo very much in the past, but she also knew that this girl was a powerful person, because she was often uneasy, and she was afraid that the two would not be able to get along peacefully in the future, so she had to endure more. Unexpectedly, when I heard such words at this time, not only did my worries disappear, but my heart also warmed up.

After a few more busy days, I finally got the color right. There are people everywhere in the house, and slaves have been added to each room, and the girls know that Gu Qiluo took the initiative to take the second brother's money to supplement the public middle school, and they are very grateful and happy.

I got up early this morning, because I didn't see Xiao Jiangbei, Gu Qiluo went to the study after washing, and sure enough, I saw him looking at a map in the study, Qiu Qing was waiting next to him, and she looked at him until Gu Qiluo coughed, she came back to her senses, and immediately turned red, and hurriedly came over to see.

Xiao Jiangbei also straightened up, took Gu Qiluo's hand and said with a smile: "What's wrong?" I'm thinking you'll sleep a little longer. ”

Gu Qiluo glanced at him and snorted coldly: "Do you only allow you to watch three watches and five watches?" Can't I be diligent too? Once upon a time at home, I also had a time to get up before the fifth watch. ”

Xinghua's eyes looked to the side, thinking that the girl still had the face to say, the only time you got up before the fifth watch was on the day of your wedding, or the spring rain lifted you.

But of course, it is impossible to say such a thing, otherwise if grandma is annoyed and angry, she will be the one who can't eat and walk around.

"That's a nice thing to say, you see the apricot blossoms are snickering there." Xiao Jiangbei lightly scratched Gu Qiluo's little nose, and said with a doting smile: "I got up before the fifth watch, and I have connected several sets of sword kung fu until now, where are you at that time?" ”

"You're really crazy, it's hard for the emperor to be exempted from the court today, don't you say that you have a chance to sleep in, you actually got up earlier than usual, what do you think?"

Xiao Jiangbei said with a smile: "I have been like this in the military camp all year round, I am used to it, and I can't change it when I come back." ”

This guy is a monster. Gu Qiluo glared at Xiao Jiangbei, remembering that the other party's enthusiasm was like fire when he was in bed last night, and his waist was still sore, he was good, but he was even more fierce, didn't they all say that it was very consuming of a man's body? Where is this cost? Why can't she see it at all?

With a sneer in his heart, he couldn't help but look at the map on the table, tilted his head, Gu Qiluo looked up in confusion and asked, "What is this......?" Map of Northern Hungary? Why don't I feel like it? ”

"Huh? Did the lady even see the map of Northern Hungary before? Xiao Jiangbei's eyes lit up: "Why have I never heard you talk about it?" ”

Gu Qiluo rolled his eyes and snorted coldly: "Is it only allowed for you to be both civil and military?" Won't I be allowed to read a lot? I don't usually mention it, because I know the truth that humility is full of benefits and losses, and I don't want to flaunt myself, but that doesn't mean I don't know. "My sister is also a crossing woman, and in modern times, there are several globes at home, and I am still familiar with the general map of Mongolia and Siberia.

The territory of Northern Hungary in this era, including Outer Mongolia and Siberia, is also very vast and huge, but the shape of this map does not look like Northern Hungary. Sure enough, I heard Xiao Jiangbei smile and said: "It's not Northern Hungary, it's Liaodong." A few days ago, there was news that the Jurchens in Liaodong were not very peaceful, and they might have to fight when, so I took a look in advance. ”

"Dare to love you, this town is a brick of the Great Xia army, where you need to move it, right?" Gu Qiluo looked at his lover and thought to himself that the Northern Hun side had just stopped, and this was going to Liaodong? Do you want to fight in the north and south like this...... Hmm, no, the Northern Expedition and the Eastern War?

"Hahaha, the lady is really well-read, this is interesting." Xiao Jiangbei laughed, put away the map and said: "Okay, don't worry, the Jurchens don't become a climate, and I'm just prepared, and it's not time to mobilize troops to deter." However, in recent years, the emperor has been determined to develop Liaodong, and many people have been moved from Guannei to the past, and some local tribes are a little eyeing, so maybe there will be a war in the future, but they can't compare with Northern Hungary, and now even Northern Hungary has sent envoys to sue for peace, what are the few tribes in Liaodong? ”

"Don't underestimate people too much, the Jurchens all came out of the deep mountains and old forests, and in terms of the ability to survive in the wild, even the Northern Huns can't compare, they live by fishing and hunting, and they are also skilled in bows and horses." Gu Qiluo said to Xiao Jiangbei seriously, seeing her husband nodding frequently, her eyes were thoughtful, she knew that the other party was listening to her words, so she didn't say more.

"Grandma, I brought breakfast from the kitchen, do you want to eat now?"

Suddenly, hearing the voice of the girl Qiurong sounding outside, Xiao Jiangbei said to Gu Qiluo: "Let's go, let's eat first, you've been busy at home recently, let's go to Baiwei Hall to have a look after eating, didn't you say that you want to do other business before?" It's time for us to buy a few shops, and while I'm resting today, we'll see if we can do it together." ”

"Okay." Gu Qiluo nodded happily, thought about it and said: "When the busyness is over, let's go to the opera garden to cheer for the peach blossom class, today is singing a new play, it seems to be called 'The Phoenix Returns to the Nest', I have read Zhong Chunfeng's script, it is really very exciting." ”

Speaking of Zhong Chunfeng, Xiao Jiangbei inevitably thought of Cheng Tong, and couldn't help but smile: "How is he doing recently?" These days, the officials of the Ministry of Officials have been very busy, and I expected that Cheng Tong probably wouldn't have time to find trouble with him. ”

Gu Qiluo also smiled: "No wonder I went the day before yesterday, Zhong Chunfeng had a smile on his face, and he showed me the new script, and he had the intention to let me go to the peach blossom class." Yes, if you go to the Prince's Mansion, it is better to tell the side concubine Niangniang about the news, I think Niangniang also likes this Huangmei Opera. ”

"Okay. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also said that he wanted to let them enter the palace to perform, but after the New Year, he was really busy, so he put this matter aside. After Xiao Jiangbei finished speaking, he remembered something again, looked at Gu Qiluo and said: "By the way, I heard that Baiwei Pavilion now has an opponent, there is one called Yanhui Pavilion, and he also called out the price of a table of banquet hundred taels of silver, do you know this?" ”

"Yes." Gu Qiluo nodded, and said solemnly: "This behind-the-scenes boss of Yanhui Pavilion is not simple, this is the capital, and there is already a Baiwei Pavilion Zhuyu in front of him, he can still gain a firm foothold, this is not an ordinary person." I heard Zeng Yuan say that the behind-the-scenes boss of this Yanhui Pavilion seems to be a huge rich, but he rarely appears in front of people, and he is very mysterious, I really don't know what his origin is, could it be a force secretly supported by Wang Ye? (To be continued......)
