Chapter 77: Entering the House (Second Update, Karlking Immortal Blossom Margin+)
"Are you in a hurry?" Situ Yingsleeve asked the person who returned from delivering the letter.
That person is Situ Jianren's servant Xu Dagui, who has followed him for more than ten years and is loyal to the Situ family.
Situ Yingsleeve was still very familiar with this person in his previous life.
Xu Dagui hunched his waist and said with an anxious face: "It's really strict." Miss, let's ask the Shen family to come forward in this matter......"
The Situ family is a salt merchant, doing sea salt trading, and most of the assets are pressed on the salt pans in Leizhou.
Salt from seawater, and most importantly, salt pans.
The quality of the salt pans is crucial to the sea salt produced.
First of all, the climate should be mild, the sun should be abundant, and then the tidal flats by the sea should be large and very flat.
After being introduced into the salt pans at sea, there are two steps: evaporation and crystallization.
Both of these steps require plenty of sunlight to finally cook a good salt that is snow-white and fine.
Therefore, the place where the salt is dried is crucial.
The east of Leizhou is full of mountains, but there is a large flat tidal flat near the sea at the bottom of the mountain, the sunshine is strong in that place, the wind is warm all year round, even the birds are rare, and it is the best salt drying field in the whole Dongyuan country.
In the past, everyone knew that the backing of the Situ family was the Prime Minister Shen Dacheng's Mansion and the Changxing Marquis Mansion, so ordinary merchants did not dare to compete with them.
This time, the two Huai Salt Gang, but the newborn calves are not afraid of tigers......
“…… Don't those people know the relationship between our family and the Shen family and the Changxing Hou Mansion? Situ Yingsleeve took the letter and asked in a deep voice.
She needed to know more information to determine if the situation was exactly the same as the previous one.
After all, it was two years ahead of schedule, and there were many variables.
Xu Dagui hurriedly said: "Of course we said it, how could we not say it?" The old man told the young helper that the first lady is the daughter-in-law of Prime Minister Shen, and the eldest lady is the fiancée of the Hou Shizi of Changxing, please make it convenient for the young helper! ”
"Isn't that a good point?" Situ Yingsleeve smiled and put the letter back into the envelope and put it away, "What did the young gang master say?" ”
"The result...... As a result, the young helper didn't buy it at all! Xu Dagui's face was flushed, and he said with some embarrassment," he said...... He said......"
"Say what? Don't ramble, if you want me to find someone to help, you have to tell me the truth. Situ Ying straightened up his waist and said with shining eyes.
Xu Dagui turned his head and said in a low voice: "...... The young helper said that the master has already married the person who filled the house, and I heard that the house filling is still like a flower, and it is a widow who was also married by the master to make the main room and slapped the Shen family's face, so it is strange that the Shen family will take care of the master! ”
Situ Yingsleeve's expression was a little strange. - The young leader of the Salt Gang seems to have come prepared, and has already inquired about the situation of their family......
"Well, and then what?"
"Then, the master said that even if he marries and fills the house, but the first lady leaves a son and a daughter, even if the Shen family looks at this son and a daughter, they will not stand idly by and watch the affairs of the Situ family."
Situ Yingsleeve supported his head with one hand, and played with an obsidian cheetah paperweight with the other, and listened to Xu Dagui continue with a smile, "What else?" ”
"The result...... As a result, the young helper pointed to the master and said, if there is a stepmother, there will be a stepfather, looking at you like this, you must not be dedicated to the children left by the first wife. If the Shen family really wants to look at the two children, they may just stand by and watch. - Again, if the Shen family really treats you as a son-in-law, we have been entangled here for more than a month, and the Shen family has not even let go of a fart, do you think they are dead?! ”
Xu Dagui is a middle-aged man in his forties, purple-skinned, short and strong, seeing him cocking his orchid fingers and learning to speak from a flying young man, it is very awkward, Situ Yingsleeve couldn't help laughing, got up and said: "This young gang leader is a wonderful person." Well, I'll meet him for a while. ”
Xu Dagui was sweating profusely, and hurriedly wiped the sweat with his hands, and said, "It can be regarded as moving the eldest lady!" After speaking, he said: "If the young gang leader is talking nonsense, don't take it to heart." The lord is ...... to the eldest lady and the eldest young master. It's the same heart as the second lady! There is absolutely no favoritism! ”
It's good that Xu Dagui didn't say it, but when he said this, it was really a proper addition to the snake.
Situ Yingsleeve glanced at him and said with a smile: "Uncle Xu, I am already twelve years old, and I will be thirteen in the New Year, and I am not a child anymore." If you want to coax a child, you don't have to tell me anymore. ”
Xu Dagui took a rough breath, replied heavily, and said, "Okay, well, since the eldest lady calls me Uncle Xu, I will support it." - Miss, this home belongs to you and the eldest young master. As long as you are in this home for a day, I, Xu Dagui, know who my master is! ”
"Thank you Uncle Xu for taking care of our sister and brother." Situ Yingsleeve simply bowed down and treated Xu Dagui politely.
Although Xu Dagui is a subordinate, he has been in the Situ family for many years, so he can speak.
He and his daughter-in-law are both honest people, and they are very capable.
Situ Yingsleeve relied on their family a lot in his last life, so he was even more respectful to him in this life.
Xu Dagui hurriedly rubbed his hands and moved aside, and said with a smile: "The eldest lady doesn't have to be a big gift. My wife and I were all rescued by Mrs. Xian back then, and my wife and I only recognized Mrs. Xian as the master in this life......" After speaking, he scratched his head embarrassedly, and said in a low voice: "Miss, you just know this, don't ...... Don't let ...... Others know...... Especially the old man ......"
Situ Ying nodded and said, "I can save it, trouble Uncle Xu." Then he instructed: "Uncle Xu will bring a letter to my father first, and he will say that I will come immediately." ”
It was already the beginning of November, and the autumn tiger had passed in a blink of an eye.
Another autumn rain will cool down.
Fortunately, the capital of the Eastern Yuan Kingdom is near the sea, and the winter is not particularly cold.
After Xu Dagui left, Situ Yingsleeve decided to go to Leizhou. - For the time being, there is no need for the Shen family to come forward, she can settle them herself.
She first went to the outer courtyard to find the steward and asked, "Have the guards from the Weihu Hall sent it?" ”
The steward hurriedly said, "It's here." A total of 100 people. The wife ordered them to live in the outer courtyard. ”
Situ Yingsleeve thought for a while and said, "Find me ten capable people, it's best to know the way, and go out with me tomorrow." ”
"Where is the eldest lady going? How many cars do you need? The steward hurriedly said, "The subordinate went down and ordered the horse yard to prepare the carriage and horses." ”
Situ Yingsleeve pondered for a moment.
From the capital to Leizhou, if you ride a fast horse day and night, you will arrive in two or three days.
She didn't want to ride a horse, and she didn't want to go to Leizhou soon, if she took a car and stayed in a hotel at night, it would take seven or eight days to arrive.
"Prepare two cars. One sits on people, one loads things. The guards followed on horseback. Situ Yingsleeve commanded very neatly, "We are going to Leizhou, you can take care of Steward Han." ”
The steward's surname is Han.
Steward Han was stunned by Situ Yingsleeve, and when Situ Yingsleeve left, he touched his head and smacked his tongue: "Oh, our eldest lady is really only twelve years old?" This style, this words and deeds, is really no worse than an eighteen-year-old girl! ”
"That's nature! The eldest lady of our family is going to enter the Hou Mansion as Mrs. Hou in the future, how can she be the same as the ordinary girl's family! The other steward said with honor, "In the future, I will stutter more, and it will be more effective than the eldest young master of our family!" ”
……
Situ Yingsleeve returned to Zhiguitang and said to Situ Chenlei: "Xiao Lei, my sister is going out tomorrow, you have to take care of the house at home with Xiao Meow......"
"I'm going too!" Situ Chenlei listened, and immediately grabbed Situ Ying's arm, and the monkey was on her, "Little meow also go!" Wherever my sister goes, we'll go! ”
Situ Yingsleeve looked at him in amazement, touched his head, and asked cautiously, "...... Do you know what it means to go far away? ”
Situ Chenlei shook his head, anyway, he insisted on being with Situ Yingsleeve, and didn't want to be separated from her.
Situ Yingsleeve was also very embarrassed, invited Zhang over, and asked carefully: "...... Mother, what do you think? I want to go out and help my dad do business, but Xiao Lei ......"
Zhang smiled and said to Situ Chenlei: "Xiao Lei is at home, Sister Dark Xiang plays with you, isn't it?" When you go out to eat and sleep, it may be difficult to find a place to eat, are you willing to go? ”
Situ Chenlei didn't speak, pulling Situ Ying's sleeve and refusing to let go.
Seeing him like this, Zhang smiled and said, "Then you can take him with you, just send a few more guards." It is not far from here to Leizhou. ”
Seeing that Zhang's did not object, Situ Yingsleeve responded with a smile and said, "Then I will take Xiao Lei out together." ”
Situ Darkincense saw it and said enviously: "Sister, can I go too?" ”
"Your sister is doing the right thing, it's already troublesome enough to take Xiao Lei, so don't make a mess." Zhang patted Situ Dianxiang's shoulder, "Ming'er will go to the temple with me to make incense and ask the Bodhisattva to bless our family." ”
Situ Darkincense had no choice but to go out with Zhang.
Situ Yingsleeve asked Cai Qin and Cai Sang to clean up with her and Situ Chenlei.
Early the next morning, she took Situ Chenlei and Xiaomeow in the front car, and the two mothers-in-law on the stove sat in the back car, took Situ Yingsleeve and Situ Chenlei's luggage to eat, and went to Leizhou with ten guards.
……
Out of the capital, the population became sparse.
Situ Yingsleeve calculated the itinerary and knew that when it got dark, he would go to Surabaya Ji.
There was an inn there, which she had stayed in her previous life, and it was not bad.
"Hurry up, send someone to the inn on the Surabaya market in front to book seven rooms, I'm afraid I'll run out of land if I'm late." Situ Yingsleeve commanded.
One of the guards answered, and the horse ran out first.
When he came to Surabaya Market, he found that the inn in the town was already full of people, and only one inn outside the town had empty rooms, so he made the decision to book seven rooms here and made a deposit.
came back and reported to Situ Yingsleeve: "The inn in the town is full, and there are no vacant rooms, so I have booked seven rooms at the Yuelai Inn outside the town." He added, "The inn seems to have been newly built, and the house and furniture are all new and clean." ”
Situ Yingsleeve said "um", "Let's go to Yuelai Inn." ”
It's a new inn.
In her previous life, she didn't know that there were two inns on Surabaya.
Moreover, it is strange that in such a remote town as Surabaya Ji, which is sparsely populated, and it is not a festival in the new year, the inn is actually full of people.
Situ Yingsleeve didn't say anything more, sat in the car, and was surrounded by escorts into the gate of the Yuelai Inn.
"There's a distinguished guest here!" There was a shout from the running hall, and a snow-white cloth towel on his shoulder came out.
Situ Yingsleeve took Situ Chenlei's hand and got out of the car.
Situ Chenlei was holding Xiao Meow in his arms.
When he walked past the running hall, Xiao Meow suddenly raised his head and made a fierce "sizzling" sound at the running hall......
