readx;?“ Uncle Hao, what's on your hands? Whose letter? ”

The other party replied, unwilling to meet, and invited us to have a drink in Wangjiang Tower in order to apologize. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info”

"Did the letter say why?"

"If you want to talk about business, you can go directly to Bai Ko, Gu Yun is now a seven-grade official, he has to cherish his feathers."

"Gu Yun trusts Bai Ko so much?"

"Gu Yun is indeed just a shareholder of capital contributions, does not participate in the operation, all business matters are taken care of by Bai Ko, she is called Mr. Bai as the chief treasurer, and her power in the capital should not be underestimated, Gu Yun does not know our purpose, and it is normal for him to be reluctant to show up."

"I'm not here to do business, what is there to talk about with Bai Ko?"

"But with Bai Ko's power, I can't say that I still have to follow her path, after all, she is a person who can go directly to the palace to talk, and I heard that she has also entered the imperial study to talk directly with the saint."

"What can I talk about when I meet with Bai Ko? With the current situation of our Jiang family, what capital do I have to exchange with Bai Ko? I can only follow Gu Yun's path and use his manly virtue, as long as Gu Yun likes me, I am willing to serve a husband with Bai Ko's two daughters. ”

"Miss, Gu Yun and Bai Ko can't insert other women, they are just not married now, they will still get married in the future, other women want to get involved, the best result is to be a concubine, it would be too aggrieved Miss, the daughters of our Xinzhou Jiang family are all wives, how could they have been so embarrassed."

"Now it's different from the past, if the family can't get the salt ticket for the next five years, our Jiang family will also disappear from the salt business circle, at the juncture of life and death, I don't have the bargaining chips to negotiate with others, the man who is willing to marry me as a wife has no ability to solve the problem, and the man who can solve the problem looks down on me as a wife, if I go to be a concubine and can keep the family, I will do it, this is a matter decided at home, Uncle Hao doesn't need to persuade me anymore, it is better to be Gu Yun's concubine than to be a concubine to the old man."

"But Miss came to the capital for a month, we haven't seen Gu Yun so far, we still have to think of some detours, participate in some of the salt business circles in the female tea party, and then we expand into the textile circle, it is said that the two county lords of King Yu studied in the guild, followed their cousin to learn to do textile business, the son of the eldest princess and Gu Yun are very good buddies, we can't see Gu Yun directly, through his friends introduced, although it takes more time, but it is safer, the salt ticket is next year, We still have time, so don't rush it, Miss. ”

Miss Jiang was silent for a while, and finally sighed and nodded slightly.

"It's because I'm too anxious, so Uncle Lao Hao will arrange it, and I hope to send good news to my family before the year."

"Miss, you rest, I'll contact the circle first."

The girl opened the curtain and sent Uncle Hao out, then returned to the table to sort out the silk threads, and looked at the folded peonies and butterflies that were embroidered on the handkerchief, which meant that butterflies love flowers, and couldn't help but feel all sad.

"Miss, did you really decide to be Gu Yun's concubine?"

"Or else? This crisis situation at home has affected the marriage of my children, what else can I, a woman who has been divorced, ask for? Gu Yun is the new champion of this year, he was only nineteen years old at the time, and he is the son of Ye Guo, a talent carefully cultivated by the imperial court, is there a better candidate than him in the entire capital? ”

"I just feel wronged for Miss, everyone says that Gu Yun and Bai Ko are a match made in heaven, Miss is wronged a lot for him to be a concubine, that Bai Ko is not good, I heard that she was Gu Yun's girl, she served him for a few years and changed her nationality, and she has a chance to be a young lady."

"Where did you hear that, don't talk nonsense, didn't Uncle Hao say it very clearly? Bai Ko was originally from a good background, the hereditary imperial chef Bai Shi, a good official lady, what do we salt merchants compare with her? It's just that in the middle of the family accident she became an official maid, with their own ability and out of the nationality for the people, now it is the capital of the big taxpayers, the means of doing business are amazing, she is a newcomer in the textile industry will be the old weaving experts to fight back powerless, even the weavers have turned to the white side of the weaving business, weaving the emperor can not do it. During the double robbery, it rained heavily in the capital, and even the official village was affected, and only the farm run by Bai Ko was harvested and sown early, and the heavy rain became a timely rain to help the seedlings emerge. ”

"What if she's capable? Her family has long been defeated, there is no clan, only one, how can there be a young lady with a long heritage, and I heard that she will take revenge for others, such a person is afraid that she will not be able to tolerate her husband and concubine, our young lady will bow down in front of her in the future, how sad the old lady should be at home. ”

"But this is the capital, our foundation is in Xinzhou, it is really unrealistic to marry a son like Gu Yun as a wife, not to mention that Bai Ko has the hardest backstage in the world, if I become Gu Yun's concubine, Gu Yun will marry her again, for Gu Yun's sake, my Xinzhou Jiang family can also prosper for another hundred years."

"Miss......" The girl couldn't help wiping away her tears, "For the sake of the future of the family, thank you for your hard work." ”

"It's nothing hard, it's the most important thing to have a good family."

"So what should we do now?"

"Make some new clothes, buy a few new pieces of jewelry, we can no longer sit in the house every day, taking advantage of the crisp autumn weather, it's time to go out for a walk, if no one knows us, how can we get acquainted with Gu Yun?"

"Doesn't Miss want to go directly to Bai Ko? Didn't you just say that she has the hardest backstage in the whole world? ”

"My goal is to be Gu Yun's concubine, Gu Yun and Bai Ko have no marriage contract now, no name and no share, why should I watch her put the young lady's score in front of me? Besides, when will the woman decide when a man takes a concubine? I don't plan to compete with her for the identity of my wife, I just want to be a concubine with peace of mind, keep the Jiang family from collapsing, and get through the current crisis, and when my younger brother grows up, he will support the portal, and it will be none of my business. ”

"But it's still very hard, and it's not something we can imagine what the situation is in the elite circle in the capital."

"No matter what the situation, you can't escape a word of money, in this world, there is money, is it better than the salt merchants? If you can get the next five-year salt ticket next year, the Jiang family will be able to get through the crisis, and now these months are especially important, if you have to suffer some grievances to succeed, then suffer some grievances. But I also have to pick a good son-in-law brother as a concubine, Gu Yun is the best, a son-in-law brother of his age, even if he is not married, there will always be a few concubines in the house, but he doesn't have any of them, people talk about him and Bai Ko the most, to be a concubine for Gu Yun, in fact, I am not wronged, he does not get married for a day, I am the only woman in the house. ”

"What Miss said is that the sons and daughters of the salt merchant tasted meat at the age of thirteen or fourteen, and when they get married in a few years, their children will be able to play soy sauce, in comparison, Gu Yun is really a model man."

"Actually, this is not good, the eldest and youngest, there are many crises, especially when it comes to inheritance rights, the eldest son still has to be the oldest, but unfortunately I became Gu Yun's concubine, and I will never be able to give birth to my eldest son in this life."

"Miss......" The girl pursed her lips with a crying voice, "Miss, being a concubine is still too wronged by you, why don't we think of another way?" There must be a better way! ”

"No, there are ghosts in the family, business secrets leak out, we don't have time to think of other ways slowly, only to use my body to exchange for a future, right now I just want to have a chance to take a look at Gu Yun and see what he looks like. Nanyan, you don't need to say any more, I'll take a break, you go and prepare for our shopping. ”

"Yes, miss."

The girl Nanyan bowed and quietly retreated.
