When Xu Lan saw the fox skin that Junzi had returned, she was moved and made the fur as an embellishment, and Xijing's purse and silk flower products were very popular after they were launched. Xu Lan and Lin Wan stopped the unpopular goods www.biquge.info the pen "Fun" Pavilion and continued to make popular goods, and launched one or two new products. Xu Lan asked the best-selling products to make more, and let the stores in Huaiyang County also prepare to store the goods.

The sales volume of Xijing Shop has gradually opened, and it is slightly famous, and at the end of December, it has been stopped, and Chu Wei has also contacted several combing ladies and has launched some cooperation.

At three or four o'clock in the afternoon, Han Shi's delivery carriage stopped at the door of the store, and unloaded the new products processed in Xijing, Sister Chen and Li Po were busy counting the goods, and then preparing to put the goods on the container, Xu Lan asked them to put the new products in a conspicuous position, this is a product with the Xu Ji logo, and Xu Ji will form its own characteristics in the future, no longer similar to other stores.

Xu Lan introduced Han Shi to Steward Zhao, and in the future, he would send the goods from Xijing to Huaiyang County every once in a while to do the delivery procedures with Steward Zhao, and took him to see Xu Yiliang in the evening. In the future, everyone is familiar with everything and it is easy to do things.

Xu Lan asked Shunzi to take Han Shi to the inverted room in the courtyard to rest in a special room for him, and then he stayed in this outer courtyard when he was late in Huaiyang County.

The next day, Xu Lan, Shunzi, and Han Shi went to Xijing City again.

The group first went to Master Cheng's house for dinner, and Master Cheng's house lived in Han Hua and Han Cheng's sister and brother, and it was a lot more lively. It turned out that the two little girls Lin Wan bought were not much different in age from Han Hua and Han Cheng, and they played together after a while.

Master Cheng took the two of them to practice and boxing every morning. The two little girls are learning embroidery with Feng Cui, and Lin Wan is busy with new products.

Han Hua and Han Cheng were naturally very happy to see their father, Xu Lan and Shunzi coming.

Han Shi came to Master Cheng's courtyard to see them almost every day as long as he was free in Xijing, so he was already somewhat familiar with Master Cheng, Lin Wan, and Feng Cuiju.

After eating, Xu Lan and Lin Wan discussed the new product in the office area again, and chatted for a quarter of an hour before coming out of it.

Xu Lan, Shunzi and Han Shi returned to the shop to rest together.

The next day, Xu Lan and Chu Wei discussed in the office area for a morning, after lunch, Xu Lan went to Master Cheng's house to find Lin Wan to continue to discuss the design of the product, as well as the processing method, and in the afternoon, Han Shi from the store came over and brought a letter.

It was sent by Lin Rusong, Xu Lan wrote a reply letter to him a few years ago, and the letter should have arrived when the time was calculated.

The letter was not very long, and he talked about some daily life freely, and at the end of the sentence he said that he would go to Guozijian to enroll in school after the New Year.

Xu Lan also knows about the Guozijian, which is basically the children of the nobility, and there are also those who enter the school based on their knowledge, but only in a few. It is almost quite an aristocratic university, and it seems that Marquis Lin is going to let Lin Rusong go to Guozijian to make friends with a new generation of magnates.

Xu Lan thought about Cheng Ge Lao again, but Lin Rusong didn't say anything in the letter, I don't know if it's a big deal, or he doesn't know the situation either, so he just asked him when he replied to the letter.

Xu Lan and Lin Wan first decided on the new products and explained them clearly, and then returned to the shop after dinner to write a reply to Lin Rusong, talking about the situation in recent days, and writing about this year's Lantern Festival. Early the next morning, he asked Junzi to hand over the letter to the Lin Mansion and let the people of the Lin Mansion send it.

returned to Huaiyang County with Shunzi.

Two days later, because there was nothing to do in the shop, Xu Lan hugged Xu An to play in the yard at home, Xu An was already able to climb, and a mat was laid out in the yard, playing while basking in the sun.

Steward Zhao entered the weeping flower door and went to the study, and called Mama Zhao over after a while, and Mama Zhao came back and said, "Steward Zhao has something to discuss with Young Master Xu, and said that he will wait for you in the study." ”

Wang thought that something might have happened in the shop, so he asked Xu Lan to hurry up.

Xu Lan stood up when she heard this, it's not too early or too late, usually Steward Zhao is in the store, if there is something, she usually talks to her when she is in the shop, and now at this time, there must be something in a hurry.

"Mother, then I'll go." As he spoke, he straightened his clothes and went to the study.

Xu Lan was calm on the surface, but her steps were a little hurried.

As soon as Xu Lan entered the study, she saw Steward Zhao standing at the door of the study, and Xu Yiliang was also in the study, and the atmosphere was a little dignified.

Xu Lan saluted Xu Yiliang first, and looked at Xu Yiliang's gloomy face, feeling bad in her heart.

"Steward Zhao, you can talk to her."

Steward Zhao nodded and said: "Young master, something happened to Cheng Ge's hometown, all the men in the family were exiled to the army, and the female dependents were confiscated into official prostitutes, and their homes were raided, and the people of Jinyi Wei came directly to the door." ”

Xu Lan's whole body was shocked when she heard the news, and her head banged, which was equivalent to being wiped out!

"You, what did you say? When was this? ”

"Just this morning, Jin Yiwei directly read out the holy decree, and now there is still the body of the daughter of Cheng Ge's old family lying at the gate of the mansion." Steward Zhao lowered his head sadly.

"What, why are all the ladies dead?" Isn't it a prostitute? Yes, if you don't become an official prostitute, isn't that equivalent to forcing you to die?

"It is said that Mrs. Cheng committed suicide by taking poison with all the female dependents, and no one dares to collect the corpse yet." Steward Zhao looked sad.

This Cheng Ge Lao is the pride of the people of Huaiyang County, that is the first assistant of the cabinet, it has only been such a person for a hundred years, how many people surnamed Cheng are proud of being the same clan as Cheng Ge Lao, but now they don't even have a corpse.

Xu Lan was so shocked by the news that she couldn't react, she couldn't believe what Steward Zhao said, she just went to Cheng Yan's wedding last year, and the newlywed woman was also at the door of the Chen Mansion. And the little Lori who confessed to herself, so small, what did she do wrong? Enjoyed the shade of Chengfu and enjoyed the glory of Chengfu? and Cheng Min's swaggering guy, who disappeared in one day. The world is terrible!

Xu Yiliang saw that she didn't speak for a long time, knowing that she was familiar with Cheng Yan and Cheng Min, and she had a piece of Cheng Ge's old treasure ink before, so she must be sad in her heart, and she was afraid that she would overreact, so it was best not to do anything now.

"Why, that's happening?" Xu Lan asked in a slightly trembling voice.

"I went to inquire, and the holy decree said that Cheng Ge Lao was corrupt and took bribes, formed a party for personal gain, and even interfered in the court and used resources for personal gain, and no matter how much he asked, he couldn't inquire about it."

Xu Lan thought of the grass and trees in the old mansion of Cheng Ge, but you are the chief assistant of the old pavilion, which one can be innocent, Xu Lan does not distinguish between loyalty and treachery, but she has friends with Chen Chong and Cheng Min.

Xu Lan thought that Chen Chong and Cheng Min were friends, and Chen Chong might have some news.

"Father, I'll go out for a while." Xu Landao.

"Where to go?" Xu Yiliang hurriedly asked nervously, just because he was afraid that she would be involved in this matter, this matter is not trivial, and it will not be good if she causes trouble in vain.

"I'll go to Chen Chong and ask, he is good friends with Cheng Min, maybe there will be news." Xu Lan was anxious and didn't notice Xu Yiliang's thoughts.

"And then?" Xu Yiliang then asked.

"Then, then 。。。。。。" Xu Lan was stunned, because she didn't know what to do next, but it was what she wanted to find Chen Chong first.

"Rong'er went to see Chen Chong first, and then made plans."

"Lan'er, you can go to see Chen Chong, but if you want to do something next, you must come back and discuss with your father first, is that okay?" Xu Lan felt that Xu Yiliang's eyes were particularly bright today, and his father, who was gentle in the past, seemed to be particularly sharp today.

Xu Lan looked at Xu Yiliang and nodded, Xu Yiliang saw her nodding, and asked Steward Zhao to send her to Chen's mansion. (To be continued.) )
