Chapter 57
Mrs. Wang smiled and said, "We don't know about business, but just ask." It's just a cloud girl, you shouldn't meddle too much in the affairs of this shop, after all, your daughter's family is still dominated by female red needles, and these are secondary. It's also good to have nothing to do with Baoyu and them to chant poetry together. ”
Shi Xiangyun responded obediently, "Yes, thank you for your advice." ”
Mrs. Wang talked for a while, and then let Shi Xiangyun go down.
Shi Xiangyun pursed his lips, snorted proudly, and said in his heart, what I said is all true, if you don't believe it, I can't do it! Shi Xiangyun shrugged his shoulders and turned to go back.
In the house, Mrs. Wang shook her head, "I think that Yun girl is just a daughter raised in the deep boudoir, no matter how smart she is, how can she know so much." Bao girl is too hearty. ”
Aunt Xue nodded, "Yes! Look at what kind of nonsense she says! What is more expensive, the better, where is there such a thing, everyone buys things that are beautiful and cheap! However, I heard that the contents of the flower want to be Rong are indeed quite expensive, and a box of incense powder costs ten taels of silver! ”
Mrs. Wang frowned and said, "It's too nonsense! That's it, presumably it's just luck, and this kind of business can't last long! That's it! My rouge shop is losing money every year, forget it, let's close it! Fortunately, the location is good, and it is good to rent out and collect cash every month. ”
Aunt Xue nodded, "What the county lord said is reasonable!" ”
"It's just your shop, what can I do?" Mrs. Wang asked tentatively. I think that at the beginning, the neon of the Xue family was the premier rouge shop in the capital, but now it is no longer what it looks like.
Aunt Xue smiled awkwardly, "It's just a shop, if it doesn't work, close the door and do something else!" The county lord also knows that our Xue family has so many businesses, and there are all kinds of businesses, but it's just a rouge shop, what is there to worry about. Just by the way. By the way, the county lord, I heard that the pawnshop has been the most profitable recently, and many down-and-out families are desperate, and the treasures left by the ancestors in the family are all gone. And most of those people are dead! Aunt Xue said meaningfully.
Mrs. Wang smiled, she could say that she had already started doing such a lucrative business, and it was in the name of Zhou Rui's son-in-law. In fact, she has done a more profitable business than a pawnshop, but as early as after Zhu'er's death, she stopped it, and now, she is just instigating Feng Yatou to do it! Of course, she wouldn't tell Aunt Xue about such a thing.
Shi Xiangyun didn't take this matter to heart, the second day was the day to go to Nan'an Palace, she and Lin Daiyu packed up their salutes and set off. When they went to Zhuangzi this time, they didn't bring many people, so they brought Mama Jiang and Qinzhu, Xia Zhi and a few little girls, mainly because they and Nan'an Wangfu also came and went often.
Concubine Nan'an and Mu Hui had been waiting for a long time, and when they saw them coming, they set off for Zhuangzi. Shi Xiangyun and Lin Daiyu felt bored, so they simply went directly to the county lord's carriage. "It's not summer yet, is it? Why did you go to Zhuangzi? ”
Mu Hui was also very happy to see the two friends, "Since the New Year, my grandmother has not been very happy, there are many people in the house, and some people come to visit my grandmother at every turn, some people can push, and some people are not easy to refuse." The grandmother was so annoyed that she simply said that she would hide in Zhuangzi and clean up. My father and mother said that they were afraid that my grandmother would be bored alone in the Zhuangzi, so they asked me to accompany my grandmother. I thought, such a good thing is indispensable for you, and it just so happens that my grandmother also thinks about you, so she asks you to come here. ”
"Great! I'm tired of visiting the gardens of Jiafu! Shi Xiangyun breathed a sigh of relief and said excitedly.
Lin Daiyu held her forehead, unable to believe it, "Isn't it?" You still have to continue to shop, Zhuangzi is not as good as the house, what if it collides? I thought you could stop when you got out of the house? So you're still so crazy! ”
Mu Hui blinked her big watery eyes and looked at the two of them inexplicably, "What are you talking about?" Is there something I don't know about this? ”
Lin Daiyu was funny and angry, and told Mu Hui the details, "The county lord doesn't know, Yun girl, I don't know where I heard the crazy words, so decent, I have to pull me to accompany her around the garden every day, saying that we are the daughters of the boudoir, delicate and frail, if we don't do activities every day, in the future" The last few words Lin Daiyu really couldn't say it, so she leaned under Mu Hui's ear and whispered a few words.
Mu Hui's face turned red as soon as she brushed it, straight to the bottom of her ears, she bit her lip and looked at Shi Xiangyun in disbelief, Shi Xiangyun was noncommittal, "Don't call me alarmist, Sister Lin, if what I said doesn't make sense, why do you think the grandmothers would acquiesce to our actions?" Your body is your own, how do you feel about it now compared to when you first entered Beijing? ”
Lin Daiyu blushed, "Sister Yun's words are reasonable, I also think that I am much better now, even my complexion is much better, I used to breathe badly when I walked a few steps, but now I have walked around most of the garden unconsciously." ”
Mu Hui remembered that her mother looked at her relatives for herself, it seemed to be from the north, his family was a military general, Xu was the ancestor who had killed a lot, and the heirs had been difficult, although her body had been carefully recuperated since she was a child, but when it came to her complexion, it seemed that it was not as good as the two sisters of Lin and Shi!
"Well, does it really work? Don't do anything else? Just walk every day? Mu Hui said hesitantly.
Shi Xiangyun came to the spirit, "Lord Huijun, are you also interested, in fact, in addition to walking, I also know some body shaping techniques, which are very effective in shaping the body, do you want to give it a try?" ”
Lin Daiyu hurriedly said: "Don't say it, your actions are ashamed, it's a shame that the grandmothers didn't see it, if you see it, you have to say it!" ”
When Mu Hui heard this, she quickly shook her head, "That's still not necessary, the grandmothers around me are also very strict." "I quietly added a few words in my heart, even if I used to be more lenient, but now it has changed.
Shi Xiangyun sighed in frustration, muttering in his heart, I really don't know the goods, I am a yoga that is popular in later generations, beauty and shaping are very effective, but unfortunately, the grandmothers have too little knowledge, and the sisters can't accept it, only when they are alone in the space, they can practice.
The three sisters talked and laughed, all the way to Zhuangzi.
After getting out of the car, Concubine Nan'an looked tired, "Yun girl, Lin girl, you are not outsiders anymore, I am very tired, so I won't talk to you." Go play for yourselves! Hui'er, you take care of them. ”
"The concubine will take good care of herself. The concubine's body is important. Lin Daiyu said worriedly.
Seeing off Concubine Nan'an, Mu Hui sighed, and Shi Xiangyun frowned and asked, "What's wrong with Concubine Nan'an?" What did the Imperial Doctor say? ”
Speaking of this, Mu Hui was angry, "When my grandmother was young, my grandfather spoiled his concubine and killed his wife, and my grandmother suffered a lot because of this, these are all old problems. When the doctor came, he just looked at some nourishing medicines, so that he could live and nourish. I'm really worried about my grandmother, my father, maybe my grandmother is too well protected, he is indecisive, and my brother is better, but he is still young. I really can't imagine what it would be like to have no grandmother in Nan'an Palace. ”
Shi Xiangyun frowned, it seems that in the original book, when King Nan'an was defeated, the concubine was already seriously ill, but even so, she still supported herself and planned for her children and grandchildren, recognized Jia Tanchun as her righteous daughter, and married Fanbang and relatives. Forget it, Concubine Nan'an treats her well, and Jia Tanchun is also pitiful.
"Let's go, let's go to the kitchen and make something for the concubine, shall we?"
Mu Hui blinked, "What to do?" ”
"You can't do Buddha jumping over the wall or something, porridge will always boil! No, you can make some porridge for the concubine! The concubine is sick now, and what she is most looking forward to seeing is that the descendants are under the knees, you, who are granddaughters, make some porridge for your grandmother, I think the concubine will know it, and she will be very moved, maybe she can eat more! I have always believed that medicine is not as good as food, and that it is better to eat than any tonic! Shi Xiangyun said with an expression that you don't understand anything.
Lin Daiyu also nodded, "What Sister Yun said is very reasonable!" When my father was seriously ill, Sister Yun and I served the soup and made some rice porridge in the kitchen, and my father ate it deliciously! People also have a lot of spirit! Since the county lord is so worried about the concubine's body, it is better to give it a try! ”
Mu Hui was still skeptical, but Lin Daiyu said, "The ancients could still cut flesh to heal relatives, but it's just cooking, it's not difficult!" I'll go! ”
Mu Hui swore and confidently entered the kitchen under the worried eyes of the maids, and after a while, she came out disgraced.
"It's so hard! I won't! ”
Shi Xiangyun rolled up his sleeves, "Really, look at me!" Saying that, in the eyes of the mothers-in-law, "You are still coming", he entered the kitchen with great righteousness. Only Lin Daiyu followed in with confidence, and did not forget to greet Mu Hui, who was purifying her face, "You also come and see, this thing is not difficult, it will be born once and cooked twice, and it will be soon." ”
Mu Hui gritted her teeth, wiped her face with a handkerchief, rolled up her sleeves and went in again, and the maid shouted from behind: "County Lord, you have changed your clothes!" ”
With the concerted efforts of the three of them, in fact, the main operator is still Mu Hui, of course Shi Xiangyun and Lin Daiyu will not steal the limelight from Mu Hui, and finally boiled a pot of porridge, Shi Xiangyun asked the cook to accompany a few side dishes, and let Mu Hui personally take it to the concubine.
Shi Xiangyun looked at Mu Hui's back comfortably, and breathed a long sigh of relief, "Sister Lin, it's not too early, let's go shopping!" These things are not good for three days of fishing and two days of drying nets. You have to be persistent! ”
