Chapter 247: The Price
Nanli returned home, and did not forget to talk to Ye Siheng about Fan Guizong.
Ye Si Heng frowned: "This person is narrow-minded, he is good at evil arts, not only is he willing to spend time and effort on the layout, but he also has a strong mind to survive with a broken arm, and it is a trouble for him to escape." ”
Nanli nodded, "That's right, I'm afraid he will make trouble for the Fan family again." ”
Therefore, before she left, she also gave Fan Fu other feng shui bureaus, and buried talismans in various directions, and the talisman arrays formed could prevent evil spirits.
Ye Siheng understood what she meant, and said, "Don't worry, I will send a secret guard to hunt down his traces, as long as he walks outside, he is not afraid that there will be no traces." ”
Nanli snorted and took a sip of tea.
The two chatted for a while, and then went out to the Anyang Hou Mansion.
Everything in the Anyang Hou Mansion is as before, Chu Hanlin and Chu Ye are in the Gyeonggi camp, and the two accompanied the old lady and the Shen family to talk, and then Ye Siheng went to the palace, and Nanli went to give Xiao Wanyi a pulse of peace.
Xiao Wanyi's pregnancy is good, it is not yet three months, the fetal image is quite stable, and she is not very happy, she eats and sleeps well, and her face is rounded again.
Nanli adjusted the fetal pill and let her continue to take it every day.
Xiao Wanyi had already started to make children's clothes, but she said with a headache: "Sixth sister, I'm afraid only you can persuade the second brother." ”
"What's wrong with the second brother?" Nanli asked hurriedly.
"Since I became pregnant, he has been delivering things every two days, including fabrics, toys and even books that children can only use when they are three or four years old." Xiao Wanyi had a bitter face, "Your eldest brother's yard and I are not big, and the treasury really can't be placed." ”
Nanli suddenly cried and laughed, she still thought that something had happened to Chu Shuo, it turned out that she was still an old mistake.
She asked, "He's so idle, isn't he busy preparing for the dowry?" ”
I heard that in two or three months, her family will be married to the Lu family.
Xiao Wanyi looked complaining, "It's not that you don't know how powerful your second brother is, what good things he wants to collect, it's not a casual thing." He was able to take care of the business outside, prepare the dowry for his future daughter-in-law, and even have time to collect all kinds of interesting objects for his little nephew, causing his mother-in-law to say that if he focused on studying and practicing martial arts, he would definitely make a great difference. ”
Nanli added: "Not only that, but he often sends people to deliver things to the palace. ”
She went out for a trip, and Yuan Bao came over with a list to report, saying that the things sent by the second young master had been registered and put into storage.
Xiao Wanyi grabbed her hand: "You really have to persuade him, as long as the cloth he sent, the child won't be able to use it up for ten years." ”
Nanli thought to herself, it's not that she didn't persuade her, but that she persuaded it uselessly.
Because she sent someone to say hello when she returned home today, Chu Shuo didn't go out today, except for Chu Huan on duty, the fourth and fifth children all arrived in the courtyard early to wait, they knew that the sixth sister went to the sister-in-law's side, and then the second brother would come over.
Tea and sweets are also available.
Nanli saluted, and Chu Shuo hurriedly waved his hand: "Don't don't, sit down, do we still need these false courtesies?" ”
Chu Yang and Chu Yan also echoed beside them, and asked Nanli if she was hungry and ate some pastries to cushion her stomach.
Fortunately, Nanli has already had experience, and deliberately kept her stomach at Lao Taijun and Xiao Wanyi, so she can still eat now.
Eat and eat, you still have to be persuaded.
When Chu Shuo heard this, he made a straight face: "Let me not send so much?" How does this work? I work hard to get up early and work in the dark to make money, in order to send you good things, if this can't be done, what is the use of me making money, and what is the fun of being a man. ”
"......" Nanli suddenly felt that what he said made sense.
Chu Yang said: "Sixth sister, let's not persuade it, it is more difficult to let the second brother not send things than to let him not make money." ”
Chu Yan nodded: "That's right, the second brother has this hobby." ”
Nanli was a little depressed: "Now I live in the palace, it's quite spacious, and there are enough warehouses to fit it." But the eldest sister-in-law is not enough, you give things to people, but it makes people distressed, which is not a good thing. ”
"You're right." Chu Shuo touched his chin, looked around his flower hall, and suddenly came to an idea, "I think our Hou Mansion is too small, and there are at most two warehouses in one courtyard, and some of them are not." The best thing to do is for us to change to a bigger mansion, with three or four storerooms in each yard, and no matter how many things can be placed! ”
He clapped his palms excitedly, and ordered someone to bring his title deed in Kyoto, and he saw if there was a suitable one.
The brothers and sisters were already shocked.
Who knew that the little guy went out and came in again, and asked, "Young master, which box is it?" ”
"Huh? It's the plum blossom one, right? Chu Shuo touched his head and recalled, "No, no, the box containing the Kyoto title deed is an orchid." ”
At this time, how could everyone not know that Chu Shuo not only bought a field in Kyoto, but also bought a lot of land in other places, so he had to put it in separate boxes so that he could take it.
Seeing their surprised looks, Chu Shuo smiled embarrassedly: "No way, there is too much silver and I don't know what business to do, so I will use it to buy land and land." ”
"Second brother, how much did you buy?" Chu Yang asked casually.
"Not much." Chu Shuo said, and the little servant brought the orchid box.
When opened, it's a thick stack.
The corners of Chu Yang's mouth twitched, isn't this much?
Chu Yan was already surprised, and calmly took a sip of tea.
Nanli is embarrassed, her second brother is now a proper real estate boss, just collecting rent, a lot of money a month.
Chu Shuo picked and chosen, and finally took out a land deed, and said happily: "Look, this is my new purchase, I was going to sell it, and now it's not bad to take it for myself." ”
Chu Yang took a look first, and couldn't help frowning: "Chaoyang Street?" ”
The mansions there were very large, and most of the people who lived there were relatives of the king.
"That's right, this is the mansion of the Duke of Ming, he is a veteran of the Three Dynasties, he was a beautiful man before, but his son is a nest, and his grandson is even more addicted to gambling. Because he owed a lot of gambling debts, Ming Guogong had no choice but to sell the house to pay off the debts. Chu Shuo said.
When Chu Yang heard this, he hurriedly shook his head: "Second brother, I have been to that house, although it is spacious, it is also magnificent. Our family is just a marquis, my father and eldest brother have made meritorious contributions, they should be low-key, so as not to attract people's eyes, not to mention that the sixth sister is now the ninth princess, our family is such a good and big house, it is easy to be used to make a fuss. ”
Chu Yan also understood this truth, and echoed: "Yes, second brother." ”
Chu Shuo is very good at doing business, but the taboos in officialdom are still lacking.
He pursed his lips, a little discouraged, "Indeed, then I won't propose it to my father." ”
It's really boring to hide the flowers that you have to hide after earning money.
However, the good brother Xie Beihan is about to get married, and he was still worried about what gifts to give, but now when he looks at these land deeds, he immediately has an idea.
Before Nanli returned to the palace, she also went to check Zhimi's homework.
Zhimi is a hard-working person, and the business in the store has not fallen, and there is a lot of homework to do.
There are a lot of sigils, and he can already draw them smoothly.
Nanli looked at her appreciatively and said, "Yes, nothing strange has happened in Kyoto recently, right?" ”
