What is the most poignant thing for a person who is habitually high-minded?

That must be a more condescending posture and a fierce contempt. Even Ruan Bai didn't look at him from beginning to end, and the attitude of ignoring him was even more unbearable.

The sissy was so angry that the whole person trembled. He decided very lightly to give Ruan Bai a little color.

The palace is also divided into three, six, nine and so on. Besides, although he doesn't know the origin of the one in front of him, since he is called the second young master, it must not be the son of the world. He is the son of a Hou Mansion and the second young master of a prince's mansion, no matter how his status is higher. Look at their group again, they went out with a subordinate and a guard, and they were dressed in shabby.

However, no matter how serious he is on his side, he can't affect Ruan Bai. He left the yamen and called the tooth man who was obviously frightened by the identity of the sissy's son: "Let's go, let's go to Bailifang." ”

Xiao Zhong has a deep understanding of the intricate relationships between characters in the capital, and the sissy is obviously not any "famous and surnamed" prince he knows.

Xu Wu could almost be regarded as watching Ruan Bai come all the way, in his heart, Ruan Bai had already been demonized, and he could be called omnipotent. What is a mere prince, can he surpass their thousands of Pingxi kings?

The group just walked away without squinting.

The sissy was furious, and he was unwilling, so he immediately waved his hand and called the dog's legs: "Keep up!" "It's not as simple as Ruan Bai's light car, the posture of the sissy is quite strong, the standard carriage, two people in the front and rear, and two people on both sides. At first glance, it's quite imposing.

In comparison, what about Ruan Bai? It's just a donkey cart, and the carriage behind it doesn't look surprising.

The sissy boy sneered at the back, put down the curtain of the carriage, sat upright, and waited to go to Bailifang to see people's jokes.

As a high-end men's fashion item, Bailifang did not settle in Xinyunfang, but in Pinghuaifang, an aristocratic district a little farther away. There is Pinghuai Lake, a large lake connected to the Jinshang River outside the city, the most famous study in Beijing, Xinshan Zhai, and many landmark facilities in Beijing.

The whole Fang Market doesn't seem to be much different from Xinyun Fang, but as soon as you step into the Fang Gate, you suddenly feel a little different. The streets are a bit wider and quieter. There are mostly cars and horses coming and going, and there seems to be ethereal music, but it is not very real to hear.

When people come here, it seems that they will naturally lower their voices and become more elegant. Even the sissy who was still wandering in all kinds of negative feelings just now also showed three points of yearning in her eyes.

He had just been canonized as the prince of the world, and he could finally buy an estate in the capital by himself.

Of course, he doesn't have Ruan Bai's financial resources, and he doesn't have the right way to make money like Chu Hao. In fact, people like him usually come into adulthood and will be assigned one or two properties by their patriarchs. If it's a second son or something, he will take it directly as his own. Chu Hao's kind is completely non-mainstream that takes an unusual path. just walked out of someone else's child, which made the life of his peers very difficult.

Look at the prince, who is already good enough in the eyes of others, compared with Chu Hao, he has to shake his head. As for the sissy family, originally his visit to the capital this time to canonize was not a big deal, but it was also news that had been circulating among the powerful for a while. However, why was he so in a hurry that he had to bump into Chu Hao and enter Beijing? It's not enough for people to enter Beijing, but they also directly pressed the Hun prince to ......

A prince of the Hou Mansion, or the prince of the Hou Mansion in a remote area, did not even make a splash.

Don't mention how aggrieved the sissy issy is.

He had planned to do it well. Canonization is only the first step. The second step is to purchase a shop to sell Lingnan specialties. Not only is it profitable, but it can also push his reputation even further. Of course, this is not a new method, and the western region has already started to do this, and the results are very good. What kind of postal and other things, they can also learn in Lingnan, but it's just a matter of arranging a few veterans, how big can it be?

bumped into Chu Hao at the first step, and he didn't dare to mention it even if he had an opinion; But what is this little kid who bumped into the second part? Oh, didn't you say anything about the second young master of the palace? He wanted to see which second young master of the palace dared to give so much money to a second young master at once.

Hate the rich, regardless of age. Especially when a rich and handsome person is suddenly regarded as a short and poor man, it is completely unbearable!

And the three words Bailifang mentioned by Ruan Bai made the new hatred and old hatred of the sissy son come together. His home is in Lingnan, which can be regarded as the southern border of the Great Zhou, and it is almost diagonally opposite Shunyang Pass. Although the wisdom of the local people has not yet opened, the grain is ripe three times a year, and all kinds of flowers, fruits, trees and medicinal materials are even more ripe. As a land-sitting household, their family is in Lingnan, and they have a very nourishing life.

As the prince of the Hou Mansion, he has the best food and clothing in the local area. And after this qiē arrived in the capital, he found that he was a turtle.

"Poof! Where is anyone still smearing their face like this now? ”

"Look at the clumpy powder, tsk."

"What do those two eyebrows look like?"

Comments such as these are the standard words used to greet this son. And this qiē is all brought by Bailifang.

Don't think men don't wear makeup. In fact, when Ruan Bai saw the king of Pingxi greet the soldiers in triumph at the head of Shunyang Pass, he knew that he was very wrong. Well, as an agent, he's no stranger to makeup. With a change in the shape of his eyebrows, a touch of face and hairstyle, and a little change in accessories and clothing, he can instantly become a different person.

So, after the end of the war, he made a general mention with the cattle merchant who had not yet left, and also drew some drawings of tools, such as eyebrow brushes and the like. Niu Shang left at that time, and Ruan Bai didn't expect him to move so quickly. When he arrived, not only had men's cosmetics sets been made, but a new trend had been set off.

When he arrived at the gate of Bailifang, Ruan Bai did not go to the main gate, Xiao Zhong drove the donkey cart directly to the back door and entered.

The shopkeeper directly welcomed people in: "The owner, why did you come back so soon?" Not a little bit more? ”

Tooth Man: "Dongdong? "Is there one word missing? How old is this young man, why is he the owner? Isn't it a young owner?

The shopkeeper nodded kindly: "I don't know who this is?" He could relate to the tooth man's surprise. In fact, when he saw Ruan Bai for the first time, he was also frightened, and it was only after the repeated confirmation of the cattle merchant that he was sure that this was the owner who had never met, but had been controlling the overall development of the entire Bailifang behind his back.

The tooth man hurriedly introduced himself, and then said what he meant: "Guidongjia just took a fancy to two shops in Xinyunfang......

As soon as the two of them joined each other like this, there was nothing left for Ruan Bai. He sat down slightly in the backyard, had a few things packed, and was ready to get up and leave.

In a noble area like Pinghuaifang, even if it is Bailifang, which is making money every day, it does not occupy much area, but it is more elegantly arranged/pretended. To put it bluntly, this is just a specialty store, and the volume of the things you buy is not large, and there are only a few things in total, so you don't need much space at all. Neither the production center nor the R&D center is here.

That is, after taking a sip of tea, Ruan Bai greeted him, and let Xiao Zhong drive away with the donkey cart.

The sissy who was guarding the door was stunned: she really went in! Could it be that this kid really has a lot to do with Bailifang?

Ruan Bai didn't see the carriage of the sissy prince, but he didn't bother to take care of it at all. As an ordinary person, how could he understand the thoughts of a deep well ice?

The sissy watched the donkey cart slowly walk away, and slammed the table: "Keep up!" "Today, we must find out who this kid is!

Then he followed him to the Pingxi Palace. The donkey cart stopped at the main entrance, and Ruan Bai jumped out of the car and went straight in. Xiao Zhong walked through the side door and went to park. When passing by the carriage of the sissy prince, it was called a man who did not squint, and his face was clearly written - Kang Muang, North Nose.

As long as you dare to die, our palace will dare to accept it!

Didn't you see that the prince was repeatedly deflated in front of their family's son, he didn't know where to come out, what is it?

The sissy prince looked at the majestic gate of the palace, opened his mouth wide and didn't close it for a long time. He's the hell, isn't he? Where did the second young master come from in Pingxi Palace? Who doesn't know that Chu Hao is a lone seedling!

Although the Pingxi Royal Mansion is larger, it is also a road in front of the door, not a square, and it is not very wide. His carriage and pestle were here for a long time, and it was an eyesore and a hindrance.

The porter quickly came out to drive people away, but said more politely: "I don't know if there is anything inconvenient for you?" "Is it possible to park at the gate of the palace casually?

Without waiting for the coachman to answer, the sissy boy directly lifted the curtain and asked, "I don't know if the one who went in just now is ......?"

The porter suddenly looked at him vigilantly: "I don't know what this son is called?" What is the intention of the person to find out? ”

The prime minister's door is a seven-rank official. The concierge of the Pingxi Palace's mansion is not easy to mess with. He was born in the family, and he followed King Pingxi to the battlefield and took care of housework. In front of him, he obviously regarded the sissy as a suspicious person. Don't think that you can get a carriage and pretend to be a good friend of their second young master or something, look at that cheap outfit, how you look like a gangster. Now there are many people eyeing the second young master of their family, and he has to be guarded.

The poor lady was interrogated as a thief for a full hour, and finally let people go back to the Hou Mansion to get the seal letter, which can be regarded as passing.

"Okay, you 'Second Young Master', this son remembers you!"

Ruan Bai didn't know that he would have an inexplicable enemy. But even if he knew, he wouldn't take it to heart. Time was still there, he walked to the kitchen and followed the cooks to cook.

The ingredients in the capital are abundant, and there are many seasonings, unlike in Shunyang Pass, where there are only a few things over and over again.

The kitchen of Pingxi Wangfu is also different from other places, and there are no rules for a gentleman to cook. Chu Hao practiced martial arts when he was a child, and his stomach was hungry fast, and when he saw no one at night, he directly tinkered with himself. Once or twice scare people, wait three or four times and they will be doomed.

Not to mention, the cooks all like Ruan Bai, the second young master, although it is easy to be hit by their self-confidence.

"I'm going to visit my husband tomorrow and get some presents." Ruan Bai said this, and selected the ingredients in the kitchen with his hands behind his back, and selected a few suitable things, which naturally someone took to wash and cut.

The cook saw that he had set up a big stall, and asked with a smile, "Second Young Master, how many people do you want to prepare for eating?" With so much to eat, can your husband eat more than the prince? ”

Tian Kaifu's appetite has always been not small, and he is just a line worse than Chu Hao. Ruan Bai nodded, then shook his head again: "I have to prepare other people's shares." I heard that my husband has now been transferred to the household department......"

Cook: Is it because you are still worried about your husband's personal contacts? The second young master is really thoughtful.

“…… I heard that the work of the household department is busy, and if you don't have time to eat in the middle, you have to prepare something convenient and hungry. It's not that Ruan Bai's mind doesn't take others into account. It's the household department, one of the six departments that are full of copper smell, and it's not a post station without much oil and water, people don't have anything to eat at home, even if they get a little bit from Tian Kaifu, that is, eat fresh, it is very unlikely that they will become his potential customer group. On the contrary, because of the abundant resources, it is not much difficult to say that it is not difficult to copycat yourself.

A lot of things are actually just selling ideas, not to mention just looking at it, but according to the cat and the tiger, there will always be a portrait after a few more paintings. Even what private dishes and spice recipes, this recipe and that recipe are originally one of the foundations of these wealthy families. People just don't take it out, and it's not that they don't have it. It's just a matter of eating once in a while, and if you really want to take these things and send them seriously, it's not shabby enough.

Ruan Bai tossed all the way to the beginning of the meal, and he was already hungry. Chu Hao couldn't come back for dinner today, so he sent someone to bring a message: "The prince left a meal at the house of Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, saying that he would not come back to eat." ”

Ruan Bai: Because of the curfew, he can't go out at night, right? This kind of man is tired of making money outside for a day, and when he comes home, he personally cleans up a delicious meal (← for others), and as a result, his mother-in-law goes on a date with someone else...... Accurate! Very! No! Refreshing!

After Xiao Zhong finished speaking, he looked at Ruan Bai with a gloomy face, and his heart was worried. Today, the impression that the second young master gave him is simply changing three times a day, and it is not at all the unseen soil bun he imagined.

The second young master is very tasteful, Baili Fang was opened by the second young master, leading the entire men's fashion circle in Beijing!

The second young master is very rich, and without blinking an eye, he bought two shops in Xinyunfang!

The second young master is very cruel, he doesn't dare to speak at all now~

Ruan Bai glanced at Xiao Zhong inexplicably: "Why are you stunned, don't you set the meal?" "Chu Hao didn't come back to eat, did he let him go hungry and not eat?

Dinner was exquisite. The dishes of the palace have always been not tired of eating, from the selection of materials to the plating. Coupled with the various cooking techniques taught by Ruan Bai these days, the cooking skills of the chefs are advancing day by day. The food was varied and delicious.

Ruan Bai hadn't had a good rest all the way to the capital, and today the big thing was over, so he simply went to bed early.

Chu Hao went home with a smell of wine, and called Xiao Zhong first: "How is the second young master?" ”

Xiao Zhong reported Ruan Bai's day's itinerary to Chu Hao in every detail, and then whispered: "Lord Shizi, the second young master seems to be very angry when he hears that you don't come back to eat. ”

Chu Hao subconsciously trembled. However, he must be stable in front of his subordinates, and he didn't see anything unusual on his face, which made Xiao Zhong think that he was wrong.

"The prince?"

"It's okay, prepare hot water to wash."

Chu Hao finished picking himself up, returned to the house lightly, and didn't light the lamp, he directly touched the bed, and as soon as he lifted the quilt, he was almost kicked to the ground.

Chu Hao's acting skills were very exaggerated, and he pretended to be lame and moved a few steps, and sat on the edge of the bed: "Second brother hasn't slept yet?" ”

Ruan Bai slapped in the dark and slapped Chu Hao's dog paw into the bed: "Hmph! ”

Chu Hao made persistent efforts, and after receiving countless punches and kicks, he got into the quilt, rubbed the second dog group into his arms, kissed and patted again: "Who made our second brother angry?" ”

Ruan Bai didn't say anything, Chu Hao sighed in his heart, thinking that it was broken, his second dog was really angry. Obviously, the task was completed and he settled down, but he was so busy that he didn't see anyone all day, and he couldn't even eat dinner together, and he was angry if he was a second dog.

Chu Hao turned over and pressed Ruan Bai under him, and just wanted to explain, but heard Ruan Bai let out a short snort.

"Hmm~"

The small wave at the end made Chu Hao's whole person feel bad. What's angry, explain, all of them are set aside. How long has he been holding back all this way? Sure enough, he shouldn't have gone to a bullshit dinner, he should have made sauce with his second dog.

Ruan Bai is not a dead person, of course he also wants to be relieved. But his body is still young, and his needs in this regard are not as strong as Chu Hao's, if Chu Hao didn't use his hands and feet to tease, he would really be able to clear his heart and have few desires.

The soft dog paws put on Chu Hao's shoulder, and Ruan Bai insisted on his position: "Wait, I'm still angry~"

Chu Hao gasped and replied, "Okay, you can continue to be angry." ”

The next day, the two slept until three o'clock in the morning, and when they woke up, their limbs were intertwined, and they almost missed the fire again.

Men, if it's cool, everything is negotiable. Ruan Bai was no exception, while washing, he listened to Chu Hao's explanation: "Yesterday was the banquet of the Ministry of Works, and the Shangshu and the waiters of the Sixth Department of the Central Committee of the DPRK have arrived, and they are all asking about your affairs. Speaking of this, he was a little worried, "I don't know if you can walk when you come this time." ”

"Huh?" Ruan Bai was taken aback, "But I'm doing well in Shunyang Pass." ”

"Huh?" Chu Hao was also taken aback when he heard Ruan Bai's answer, "Isn't the second brother willing to go back to Xijing with me?" He originally planned that after this mission, he would resign from the official position of Qianhu, and then return to Xijing to marry Ruan Bai, and then slowly take over his father's baton and develop the west well.

Ruan Bai wiped his face slowly: "Didn't you go back to Xijing to get married?" After getting married, let's not go back to Shunyangguan? ”

Chu Hao tried to calm down and told himself that he and Ruan Bai were going to marry soon, and it was impossible for Ruan Bai to leave him in Xijing. In his heart, Xijing is the place where he was born and raised, and Shunyang Pass is incomparable. But if you stand in Ruan Bai's position, Shunyang Pass is the place where Ruan Bai has stayed the longest and has paid a lot of effort. Xijing is just a place name that stays on the map.

It was he who had always felt self-righteously that Ruan Bai was "married" into the Pingxi Palace. And in fact, Ruan Bai is also a man, why does Ruan Bai have to marry him? No one knows Ruan Bai's skills better than him, so he detains him in the palace like this, and is too cruel to Ruan Bai. But he thought that Ruan Bai's move meant that he would follow him in the future......

He bowed his head and kissed Ruan Bai, smiling: "Okay, let's go back to Shunyang Pass." ”

Ruan Bai didn't really have the idea of settling in Shunyang Pass. It would not be enough to say that he had a sense of belonging to Shunyang Pass. Shunyang Guan is more like a child to him, teaching him how to dress and eat, and now when he is about to teach him to read and write, he is suddenly forced to let go, and he is a little reluctant.

He saw that Chu Hao's expression was a little wrong, and quickly asked, "What's wrong with you?" I didn't say that I had to go back to Shunyang Pass, but I didn't know what to do next. Yesterday's banquet, what did the adults in the court want to arrange for me? ”

It seems that it is not easy to resign in these years, and since you are a civil servant, you have to obey the organizational arrangement.

Chu Hao said what he planned to do next, and then sighed: "But probably not." They will definitely keep you in the capital for a while. It's just that they're still ripping off, and the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Household are tearing the hardest, and they want to keep you there. Anyway, we won't be able to go back to Shunyang Pass for a while. ”

It turns out that he is such a! Ruan Bai raised his head and was narcissistic for a while: "Ministry of Industry, I can understand; Why are you looking for me? "He's barely a science and engineering man, but he's not studying finance, what can he do when he goes to the household department?

"Didn't you come up with the plan?"

Ruan Bai frowned: "What's wrong with the abacus?" "If you can make an abacus, will you definitely do the accounting? Even if it is an account, keeping a running account at home and an account of a dynasty are fundamentally two different things!

"Don't you know how much money you've made in a year?" Now that the treasury is empty, the adults of the household department are going to die of sorrow. However, blindly reducing expenditure is not a solution, and it still has to be open source. But where to go, they didn't have any direction.

Ruan Bai's brows furrowed even tighter: "What does it have to do with how much money I make?" Besides, I spend a lot of money. Are they still counting on me to hand over my business to the imperial court? "He is a small businessman, and others can't look down on it.

My family knows my own business. He seems to have a lot of money on his books, and it is enough to spend it for himself in three lifetimes, but when it is spread over a country, it is a drop in the bucket, and it is not worth it at all.

Chu Hao smiled: "Who made our second brother so capable?" By the way, why don't I take you to the Ministry of Households and the Ministry of Industry today? ”

Ruan Bai refused without hesitation: "No, I have to visit my husband today." ”

"Your sir?" Chu Hao frowned, then raised his eyebrows in surprise, "Lao Tian? ”

"Yes."

"Don't stop today, you have to go to the household to see him."

"Huh?"

"Didn't you even hand over a post beforehand?"

"Huh?" What the hell is handing a post?
