Chapter 242: Best Friends
Zhou Liang is looking forward to sixty people, although he used to be a house slave, Mrs. Nie looked at her nurse and valued him very much. It is impossible to be as respectful as a father, or at least to be regarded as an elder.
However, today, Fourth Lady Nie was not in a good mood, her graceful and bright face was full of haze, and she had no respect for the past.
Zhou Liangyao's wife, that is, the nurse of Fourth Lady Nie, no longer serves in front of Fourth Lady, but occasionally walks around with her, chatting and laughing with her. She arrived early today, and was trying to give him a look.
Something big is wrong.
Zhou Liangyao felt a sigh in his heart, and he didn't know what was wrong.
Did his son have an accident, or did his precious grandson get into trouble?
was full of doubts, Zhou Liangyao only heard Mrs. Nie's cold voice: "What kind of business are you doing now?" β
Zhou Liangyao was conceited and extremely smart, and immediately understood what was wrong.
For money, he sold the house to Miss Lu at a high price, and the friend of the third captain also wanted it, but he was sent back and complained to the third captain.
Fourth Lady Nie is the county lord of King Wei's Mansion, and the third lieutenant is her cousin.
Tianhuang nobles do not have as much kindness as ordinary people, but they are also the blood of their closest relatives.
The third captain's friend - maybe it's a beautiful woman, he suffered a loss, the third captain was not in a good mood, and he came to ask his cousin, can the cousin not give him face?
"County Lord, what are you talking about?" Zhou Liangyao had a bottom in his heart, and his voice was calm, and he still called the fourth lady according to the old rules of the palace, "There was such a deal yesterday.
County Lord, you can't blame the villain for not giving face to the third lieutenant of King Jin. That Miss Lu. She came first, and she was given a fixed amount. If she really made trouble to the Yamen, she was justified. Besides, she was willing to pay 10,000 taels of silver, at least three or four times the price of the house, and she was willing to do this transaction sincerely.
The villain is a businessman, and the businessman is honest, since he has received a fixed amount from others, he should sell it to others first; The villain looked at the third lieutenant and raised the price to make Miss Lu retreat. Where to know. Miss Lu is still willing to buy it, this sincerity, the villain can't lose his integrity"
Zhou Liangyao felt that his words were reasonable and reasonable.
Although the fourth lady is the cousin of the third lieutenant of the Jin Palace. but it was also raised by his wife's milk. There is affection for each other. And take good care of them.
If he wants to do business, he must also have integrity, right?
After that, Zhou Liangyao secretly looked at the face of the fourth lady. Unexpectedly, her gloomy face was not half relieved, but was as cold as ice.
Zhou Liangyao's woman didn't know what was wrong, but she knew that what Zhou Liangyao said made the fourth lady more and more annoyed, and she tried her best to give him a look.
The maids serving around didn't understand either, and they all held their breath.
"Good, what an honest businessman!" It took a long time for the fourth lady to speak, her words were cold and heavy, with an angry tone, and she said the word integrity, which was extremely ironic, "The rules of the tooth line, if you pay the fixed money first, you will be allowed to buy and sell." In order to curry favor with the third captain, you ignore the rules, and disregard your reputation, and dominate your customers."
Zhou Liangyao's heart fell into the ice cellar from smugness, and his hands and feet were cold for a while.
What's the matter, listening to the fourth lady's tone, she didn't want to make the decision for the third lieutenant, but for Miss Lu?
Why?
Miss Lu is much younger than Mrs. Nie, so she can't be a friend; Miss Lu's mother is older than the fourth lady, and it is even more unlikely that she will have a relationship; The Yan family and the Nie family are not in harmony in the court, and the fourth lady of Nie is not guilty of settling with the Yan family.
And Wen Lexi, just a eunuch, how about the high power, Mrs. Nie is not only the county lord of the prince's mansion, but also the wife of the queen mother's family, she is afraid of Wen Lexi?
So, why did she speak for Miss Lu?
Zhou Liangyao has been shrewd all his life, but at this moment, he has planted it, and he doesn't know where to plant it.
"Nurse, you can also see, it's not that I don't show kindness. He is outside, by virtue of the fact that he came out of the Wei Wang's Mansion, and by the reputation of you and me, so disregarding the law and the rules of business, the reputation of you, Zhou Wei and me will sooner or later make this villain tired! The fourth lady became more and more angry, Su Ri's gentle and dignified appearance was so angry that she was red and panting.
The nurse knew that this was angry.
Zhou Wei is the son of Zhou Liangyao, who has studied for many years, but has not studied much. I was thirty-seven years old the year before last, and I finally won the lift.
Because Zhou Wei wanted to study, the fourth lady released their slaves, which was a special fancy for the nurse and the nurse brother Zhou Wei.
After Zhou Wei was promoted, he didn't want to be admitted to the Jinshi anymore, so the fourth lady asked him to go to the Ministry of Officials for the record, and put him in a county order in a remote place, only waiting for the expiration of his three-year term, and transferring him to a rich state and county.
Now, the fourth lady scolded Zhou Liangyao for being a "villain", and deliberately put forward her most important brother Zhou Wei, and Zhou Liangyao knew that it was not good.
He capsized in the gutter this time, offending the most unoffending person!
Zhou Liangyao can offend the world, and there are still four ladies to support him at that time. Now that he has offended the fourth lady, this is Tai Sui's head breaking ground!
"Nurse, let him clean up his own bedding and go back to his hometown!" The fourth lady rebuked angrily.
Zhou Liangyao hurriedly kowtowed to the fourth lady: "County lord, the villain knows his mistake, the villain knows his mistake, ask the county lord for mercy"
He knew that the fourth lady was angry, and she made amends to her again and again, which was pitiful.
The nurse also persuaded softly: "You teach him, he will change." β
After a long time, the fourth lady's complexion turned around and said to Zhou Liangyao: "Miss Lu is my best friend, and she knew that the tooth shop was related to me, so she went there to do business. She also looks at her friendship with me and is unwilling to bargain with you. But if you blackmail him like this, where will my face go? β
At this time, Zhou Liangyao was already shocked in his heart.
He never imagined that Miss Lu would be called a "best friend" by the fourth lady.
Where's this best friend?
I'm afraid that there are countless powerful relationships involved.
Zhou Liangyao looked away, and he couldn't wait to gouge out his eyeballs.
"County Lord, it's all the villain's fault!" Zhou Liangyao kowtowed vigorously, "The villain will return the silver and kowtow to Miss Lu to make amends!" β
This time, not only did I not make any money, but I also had to lose the yard.
When the yard was first started, it cost two thousand eight taels. Then, Zhou Liangyao kept it in his hand for two years, repaired it again, and spent three or four hundred silver.
Looking at the previous situation, only by giving it to Miss Lu in vain could the anger of the fourth lady be calmed.
That's a loss of three thousand two hundred taels!
More than 3,000 taels, such a big tooth line, you can't earn it back in three or four months, Zhou Liangyao is so painful.
"Go and plead guilty!" The fourth lady gritted her teeth and said, "If Miss Lu doesn't forgive you, you don't have to come back, and the tooth shop will close my door as soon as possible!" β
"Yes, yes!" Zhou Liangyao almost climbed out of the Nie family of the Xiping Marquis Mansion.
Rao is out of the gate, he didn't know what kind of kindness Lu Luo had in front of the fourth lady, which made the fourth lady so angry. But he understands that if this matter is not handled well, the fourth lady really wants to let him go, and he may even anger his son.
The only thing I could do before was to take the guilt.
"It's not the third lieutenant who asked for it, but the girl who smokes. She had recently redeemed herself, and the third lieutenant had gotten along with her, so he came out to help her buy a yard. β
The fourth lady was very angry, and the eldest maid in charge also inquired that it was not An Yuxiu herself who threatened Zhou Liangyao, but An Yuxiu's friend.
An Yuxiu's friend is a famous kabuki in the capital and even all over the world. She is twenty-six years old this year, and her voice may not be very good, so she plans to retreat bravely and spend her own money to redeem herself.
Lan Yan has been in Qinglou since she was a child, and she has a conscience with the owner, and when she saw that her color was declining more and more, she was ruined, so she asked for a sum of money and let her out.
Talents such as An Yuxiu are her old customers, and they favor her talents, and seeing that she is really in trouble, it is also a little affection to buy a house for her.
"If you don't study well, you will know that you are messing around with prostitutes outside all day long. I sent someone to tell the princess of Jin, and I said that the third lieutenant of their family helped a maid fight for a house, threatened my nurse's husband, and coerced my nurse's husband to knock the bamboo pole of the fiancΓ©e of the Marquis of Zhongwu. The fourth lady snorted coldly.
