Chapter 211: A Man Who Doesn't Use!

In terms of foundation, the Taiyuan Marquis Mansion is much deeper than the Ji'an Palace. When the Marquis of Taiyuan entered here, it has been hereditary for three generations.

The people are also extremely prosperous, and the first Marquis of Taiyuan has a total of seven sons, who are inherited by the eldest son, that is, Qi Jin's father. The old marquis gave birth to six more sons, because the eldest son died at an early age, and the second son was a soft-hearted person who could not support the family business, so the youngest son Qi Jin inherited the title.

Qi Jin further carried forward the tradition of the Qi family's ability to give birth, and currently has eight sons, two concubines and six concubines. The reason why he said the current is because he is much younger than King Ji'an, just past the age of confusion, and still has a lot of time and energy to give birth to a son.

There is no shortage of men in the Qi family, but there are few daughters, Qi Jin only has two aunts, a sister, and three daughters, all of whom are concubines. Scarcity is precious, and the daughters of the Qi family are raised as treasures.

Qi Jin's sister is also Miao Shaoxian's mother, not long after giving birth to Miao Shaoxian, Miao Shaoxian's father continued to marry a big daughter. Qi Jin was afraid that his nephew would suffer at the hands of his stepmother, so he ignored the protests of the Miao family and took the child into the Hou Mansion by forceful means, and has been raised until now.

The Taiyuan Marquis family has a big business, there is no shortage of rations for this person, and Mrs. Taiyuan Marquis is a master with a good reputation and good face, and she is really attentive to Miao Shaoxian, and she picks up the best and most expensive for him with food and clothing. As long as it's not too much, he has always been responsive to his needs.

Of course, it's not blindly pampered, and it's still very strict when it's time to manage, otherwise this kind of indulgence would have made people lawless.

Young Master Miao is very in awe of this aunt, and he is coquettish and tricky in trivial matters. It's not a problem, but I never dare to disobey in major matters.

The only exception is because of hostas.

He was accustomed to living a life of fine clothes and food in the Hou Mansion, so he naturally didn't take the Miao family's idea of family property in his eyes, because he never thought of returning to the Miao family to inherit the family business and be a pillar or something. He just wants to lean against the big tree of the Hou Mansion and live a leisurely life.

Since you don't want to inherit the family business, you don't have to be so picky about the choice of your wife, just choose the one you like.

He really likes hosta and her looks. Her talent. Her smile and smile made him haunted by his dreams, and he couldn't help himself. If he could marry her, he would rather die for thirty years.

Helplessly, Mrs. Taiyuanhou is unknown because of the hosta. I don't agree with this family affair. He fought to no avail. I can only hope that the hosta will recover his memory as soon as possible. I remembered who my last name was.

The hosta took advantage of his urgency to ask for money, and cultivated his henchmen in a short period of time.

Now she has a little girl named Duo'er by her side. A girl named Lianyi, a mother-in-law surnamed Qu.

Duo'er is twelve or thirteen years old, and she is one of the girls that Chu Feiyan bought to take care of her. After her accident, Duo'er stayed in Baiyun Nunnery, and was later brought into the house by Miao Shaoxian, who was clever and obedient to her.

The lotus clothes were bought from outside by Miao Shaoxian according to her requirements, and she was originally a performer in the rivers and lakes, and she knew some kung fu.

Sister-in-law Qu is neither literate nor able to speak, such a mother-in-law was originally unreusable on the stage, after all, the servant is the face of the master, which master wants his face to be dumb?

It is said that Mrs. Taiyuan Marquis met when she went to Mount Tai to incense more than ten years ago, I don't know what happened, she was covered with injuries and was dying.

Mrs. Taiyuanhou was kind-hearted, so she took her to the mountain and placed her in a nunnery. He gave the nuns of the nunnery a sum of money and told them to take care of them.

I thought that good things would be enough to do here, but when I went down the mountain after Shangxiang, I found that Sister-in-law Qu was dragging her weak body and stumbling behind the carriage. The next person tried to persuade her a few times, but she just refused to turn back.

Mrs. Taiyuan Houfu couldn't, so she had to order her to be brought back to the Hou Mansion. When she was healed and found that she was mute, he arranged her in the back garden and made her an inconspicuous rough maid who cleaned up the weeds.

This was done for several years, and then he inadvertently saved Young Master Miao, who rolled off the rockery, and was transferred to the big kitchen by Mrs. Taiyuanhou. Because of his quick hands and feet, his cooking skills are very outstanding, and he was promoted layer by layer and took charge of the small kitchen in the courtyard of Mrs. Taiyuanhou.

Therefore, the two young masters and young master Miao who were raised under the knees of Mrs. Taiyuanhou are very familiar with each other, and when Young Master Miao was moved to the study of the outer courtyard when he reached the age, he was sent by Mrs. Taiyuanhou to take care of Young Master Miao's diet and daily life.

Because she can't complain much, her hands and feet are nimble, and she is kind to everyone, there are almost no people in this house who don't like to ask her to help run errands. In the front and back courts, and even the Punfu Courtyard, he is a well-fed figure.

The hosta had already set her sights on Sister-in-law Qu, and after a little beauty trick, she asked someone from Miao Shaoxian. After testing for a while, I saw that she was really a person who only did things and didn't care about idle things, so I was relieved and boldly asked Sister-in-law Qu to send the letter.

Daliang has a kind of private postal service, which can communicate secretly through ciphers. As long as the corresponding code is set, they will naturally send the letter to the designated post point, and the party receiving the letter will then use the code to take the letter away.

At first, it was a method devised by the court officials to cover up those shady deeds and prevent the source of the letters from being discovered. Later, it was used by private postal service to meet the special requirements of some guests, and the postage was very expensive, from Mount Tai to Jinan Mansion, it cost five taels of silver to send a letter, and it was as much as twenty taels to be sent to the capital.

The hosta knew her mother very well, and she didn't dare to let Mrs. Jian Si know where she was, lest Mrs. Jian Si act impulsively and ruin her own plans. He instructed Sister-in-law Qu to send the letter to Jinan Mansion through a private postal service, to a dowry shop of Mrs. Jian Si, and then the people in the shop handed it over to Mrs. Jian Si.

In the letter, she informed her of the code and explained in detail the method of communication, so that Mrs. Jian Si could inform her of the news from the city of Jinan at any time.

Chu Feiyan's letter was first passed to Duo'er, and then to her, and after she read it, she ordered Sister-in-law Qu to go to the postal service, and sure enough, she received a letter from Mrs. Jian Si.

The main content of the two letters is the same, both of them say the news that Jian Ying is pregnant, but the purpose is very different.

Chu Feiyan persuaded her to give up, so that she would no longer be nostalgic for the Jian family, and she would be able to live well with the identity of Miss Taiyuan Houfu. also mentioned that he was going back to Hangzhou, and said that he would not be able to help her in the future.

Although Mrs. Jian Si said that she knew how to think of ideas, there was a pleasing meaning between her words.

She flipped through the two letters a few times, and then lit them with a bright fire. Looking at the ashes in the spittoon, he sneered and said to himself, "A useless man, he thinks that without him, I can't do anything?" ”

raised his voice and called Duo'er in, "Help me make up, I'm going to see my godmother." ”
