151 made a pair
Lao Siniang finally got a truthful word, not in a hurry, but happy, and hurriedly inquired,
"Is the eldest lady dissatisfied with his face, or is she dissatisfied with his official position? His family background is a little worse, and his family's background is not as good as the Chen family, but where can the family background of the city supervisor be? The eldest lady only needs to look at the handwriting of the young lady of Jifu to arrange the spring banquet this time. The most important thing is that he is from the background of the third rank of Jinshi after all, which is difficult to find with a lantern......"
"Not really."
She was silent for a while, clapped her hands and summoned Rui Niang, and gave two orders.
"Big lady, just now the lady of the Huang family sent someone to ......"
Rui Niang first reported to Wang Qinghe to pass the word, saying that there was no Ji Chenlong in the list of prisoners who dedicated the temple, Ji Qingchen was naturally relieved but worried about whether Ji Chenlong had lost his life.
"Huang Gangshou said that the captives who dedicated the temple were all Jin and Goryeo, and the Han army captives in the middle were asking people to check it, and the eldest lady would wait a few days."
Ji Ruiniang told her carefully, and suddenly remembered one more thing, and opened her eyes wide, "Is the eldest lady going to Quanzhou City soon?" β
Ji Qingchen knew that it was in the selling bureau just now, and Hu Gangshou's wife Liu had a conversation with her, so that the little girl heard it.
Hu Gangshou and Lou Yun have said a lot in the past two days. Lou Yun seems to have asked the Hu family to communicate with her, saying that although the wharf in Xihe Road cannot be given to Tang Fang now, it will allow Tang Fang to operate a few in two or three years.
"Wait until I help you Third Brother Ji go to Chuyang West River to build a wharf, let him settle down, and then we will go to Quanzhou."
She knew that Hu Gangshou had fallen to Lou Yun, she didn't move a single eyebrow, smiled and spoke, and pinched Ji Ruiniang's little face,
"I've had enough of these days. You stayed in the Yellow Lady's Mansion for half a year. Don't worry, I won't go to Quanzhou City these days. β
Although Lao Siniang felt that the conditions offered over there could be further discussed, if Lou Yun could shorten the time for handing over the wharf, set the location of the wharf, and increase the number, this matter might be more beneficial to Tang Fang.
But seeing that Ji Qingchen had already made up her mind, she naturally didn't dare to persuade her.
Ji Ruiniang was only afraid that Ji Qingchen would leave her in the Yellow Mansion. Now I was suddenly happy.
She said all these things. According to Ji Qingchen's instructions, she took out a handwritten book from her small luggage, and turned to the small notes of Lou Yun that she copied from Lou Yun's "Red Sleeves and Fragrance Map".
She glanced at Ji Qingchen and saw her nodding. handed the manuscript to Lao Siniang.
Lao Siniang is also literate, so she took it and read it carefully, muttering out of her mouth,
"Lou Yun. The people of the southwest mountains are also ......"
Rui Niang had already withdrawn, and Ji Qingchen waited for her to finish reading the note. Then he sighed:
"My marriage can't go on just to make do."
"Naturally, this is the case, why make do with the things that the eldest lady can make up for herself? Of course, find someone you like. β
Lao Siniang nodded hurriedly.
Ji Qingchen looked at her in surprise, and finally understood that Lao Siniang was interested in Lou Yun's background, official position, and future. And his face was full of confidence, believing that this person was enough to impress her.
"Big lady, think about it, is it easy to get the shipping port in Quanzhou? Penghu Island is the same as Zhoushan Island. It is a resting place when passing through Quanzhou City. Putuo Port is now controlled by the Siming royal family. Lord Lou arranged that place to invite the eldest lady to move over, is the favor in the middle not as good as the wharf on the West River Road? β
Lao Siniang said carefully. In the end, the wind of conversation changed,
"It's just a woman, and I have the same mind as the eldest lady. After all, Xihe Road is the country laid down by the eldest lady herself, and she can't let it out no matter what. That's what I'm fighting for. But Lord Lou's mind, the eldest lady also has to weigh it......"
ββ¦β¦β
She could only smile and continue:
"Lord Lou, he is a person - don't mention Chen Wenchang, only mention Wang Shiqiang, who I have a marriage contract, he broke my heart, but I also knew that he was going to go on a career in office, and his temperament is self-serving, I also understand."
Because of the mention of Wang Shiqiang, Lao Siniang didn't dare to speak, but she said with a smile:
"Wang Gangshou, for example, he is an ugly pear on a tree, but I can tell which piece of it is crooked at a glance."
Lao Siniang is a clever person, as long as she doesn't mention any ethereal fate, this woman can understand a little, and suddenly smiled:
The woman understood. The same is true for Gongzi Wenchang. He is not like a big man, he wants to open a academy without being an official or businessman, he is just an ugly pear on a tree. Although it is not round or smooth, what he likes, what he is willing to do, and what he hates to do, this is all clearly stated so that everyone knows, and there is nothing to hide. β
"Exactly."
Ji Qingchen saw that she was also an understanding person in terms of understanding people, so he was willing to talk to her about this matter.
"It is said that people like Wang Shiqiang and Chen Wenchang who can stand in the world are a little stubborn. I don't care much about other people's eyes. β
Lao Siniang naturally nodded yes. secretly pondered that Ji Qingchen should like such a person.
Thinking of this, Lao Siniang was even more overjoyed.
The small notes of this manuscript clearly say that Lou Yun was born in the southwest of Yi, and he walked out of the southwest mountains when he was a teenager and searched for relatives for thousands of miles.
He won military exploits, ascended the Golden Palace, and opened the sea port as a man, isn't this a maverick figure?
There may not be a single such person among the 10,000 barbarians in the southwest.
Lou Yun and the eldest lady are a natural pair.
Ji Qingchen took the manuscript she brought back, flipped through Lou Yun's notes, and said:
"When I first met Prime Minister Wang Gang, I heard rumors. At that time, many people laughed at him. One ridiculed him for camping in the officialdom of the capital, and the other ridiculed him for making friends with a poor boat in the northwest like Huang Qilang. and spent money on the Northwest business. He spent money to inquire about the affairs of the Jin Kingdom and the Western Xia Kingdom in the north, and even his uncles and brothers once laughed at him in front of me. But look at nowβ"
She didn't mention Lou Yun, but talked about Wang Shiqiang, but Lao Siniang thought so, and said with a smile:
"Now he can be regarded as a businessman and a good man, I heard that even the king in the capital, Shi Zhongcheng, but whenever there is something in the court, you have to discuss it with him first. The Hu family and the Liu family have only woken up in recent years and began to go to the capital to drill camps. Even if it was Xie Thirteen Gongzi, where was he willing to live in a relative's house in the capital for so long? β
"Let's not say whether it's good or bad to drill like this. But if he is willing to do it in his heart, he will dare to do it. Others ridiculed and looked down upon, but he didn't say anything. When it's done, people will naturally shut up. β
With that, she sighed.
Lao Siniang saw that she was repented of her marriage, and she still saw the benefits of Wang Shiqiang so clearly, and he couldn't help but feel sorry for Ji Qingchen in his heart.
At the beginning, she must have liked Wang Shiqiang very much.
Aren't the various workshops built in the library in Tangfang all for Wang Shiqiang?
"Big lady, I heard that Canglang Garden has begun to prepare for the spring banquet. Wang Gangshou should be coming back soon. I'm just afraid ......"
ββ¦β¦ He'll go back. He's going to post it. Of course I'm going. You don't have to worry about me. β
She smiled slightly and comforted Lao Siniang,
"I suffered a loss. Isn't it a little more eye-catching to choose people now? In the past six months, Chen Wenchang has been good to me, even if I can't do this family affair with him, he has no place to be sorry for me. My heart rejoices. Not to mention. Chen Hong wants to ruin my marriage, how can I have no way to deal with it? β
In Lao Siniang's echoing smile. She flipped through the handwritten notebook, thinking about Lou Yun in her heart,
"Chen Hong is not difficult to deal with, but Lord Lou is not a person who will donate water conservancy money because of you. I think you're qualified
Building a wharf ......"
Lao Siniang didn't understand that the water conservancy money was just a private agreement between Tang Fang and Wang Shiqiang.
But this land in the world, this Chuchang river. That is the property of the Zhao official family.
"Wang Gangshou and I have signed a contract, if I can't get the river wharf. He's going to use the dark stock of Huang's warehouse
The guarantee will be compensated to me in full. β
But where did she rarity to take his shares?
Ji Qingchen saw the little note that Xie Guoyun wrote for her in his eyes.
"Tangfang Ji's, I don't know its beauty......"
and the nickname he gave her, "Ugly".
"Big lady, that means ......"
Lao Siniang couldn't capture Xie Guoyun's weird train of thought at all
"It means water duck. Aren't there a lot of water ducks outside our shop? β
Ji Qingchen smiled.
Xie Guoyun's "ugly" is just the ancient name of the ugly duckling.
The water ducks in the Tangfang swamp are different from other places.
When it was small, it was dusty and ugly.
On the contrary, when it grows up, it will grow up with red, blue and green long-tail feathers, bright and beautiful, but this duck is too ugly when he was a child, so the cry when he grows up is also:
Ugly, ugly, ugly.
That's why it's called ugly.
And she, Ji Qingchen, is the ugly duck who shrunk her head and didn't dare to let people know her origin.
With the experience accumulated in the previous life, and relying on the concerted efforts of relatives and residents in this life, she built Tangfang in ten years. She dared to be stunned by the big-winged beautiful swan.
Now, she is the heroine of Tangfang who is surrounded by everyone.
But when she occasionally groomed in front of the window and looked at the knock-off bronze mirror, she looked at the bright eyes in the mirror, a woman in ancient clothes, and she couldn't recognize who she was at all.
She shouldn't be Ji Qingchen.
She was supposed to be a fourteen-year-old child who came out of a mountain village with luggage on her back in her previous life, and she was the country migrant girl who worked in a coastal factory and made copycat soles on the production line.
Mom asked the teacher in the village to give her a name, which is very beautiful and sounds, much better than Ji Qingchen.
Her name, which would have been:
Season early in the morning.
But if she wants to live well in this life, she has to be Ji Qingchen all the time.
"Lou Yun - he is different from Wang Shiqiang and Chen Wenchang. He was originally from the southwest mountains. But look at how he behaves now, how he behaves, how polite he is, and how careful he is at all times, and you want to say that he is the roundest, sweetest, and sweetest fresh pear that bears fruit on the tree, and that's allβ"
She remembered that on the drum tower, Lou Yun looked at her.
There were a thousand words in his eyes, but not a word was spoken.
It's like two people in the moonlight woods.
Of course, this let her know that this person is still a little self-aware, and he will not be engaged to hook up with women outside.
But he was so deliberately restrained that she almost suspected that he and the Moonlight Forest were completely two people, which also let her know that he was thinking too deeply, too much, and it was far from being possible to live like Chen Wenchang.
Lao Siniang hurriedly wanted to defend Lou Yun, and said:
Although this is the case, his temperament is also the same as that of Wenchang Gongzi. The big lady doesn't like his ......" (to be continued) R640
