As soon as Meizhen heard that they were going to Huating County, she couldn't help but feel dark in her heart, thinking that that person was also leaving Qingyang City, but thinking that she still had a lot of things to do, this glass business was her own, and she must show her strengths, and she couldn't be stumped by this kind of childlike affection.

Just thinking about it, Wen Hui said, "This time we will go and it may take a long time to come back." The eldest brother has not yet married his sister-in-law home, so I asked the eldest brother to bring his personal maid with him, so that he can help with chores. ”

When Meizhen heard this, she couldn't help but feel sour, this is something that can't be done. This thing is normal in their family, and the Wan family often has to sit in a shop in another place, which is to stay away from their wives, and usually bring a concubine to have sex or something.

At this time, Wen Hui said: "Sister, don't worry." This big girl used to be my mother's personal maid, her name is Biwen, she is older than my brother, my brother has always respected her, and she is definitely not a maid in the room. She was introduced by my mother this year, and said that she gave a shopkeeper in our house, and they were all married, and she must be a housekeeper in the house in the future. ”

Meizhen couldn't help but be happy when she heard this, and just when she showed joy on her face, she saw Wen Hui looking at her with a smile, and couldn't help but be shy: "Why did my sister tell me this?" I don't want to hear that. What else do I have to discuss with you? Aren't you going to look at the ledger? I'm going to take it out for you to take a good look at, don't grind your teeth here. ”

Wen Hui laughed. Then Wen Hui looked at the account book, calculated, and gave Meizhen three thousand taels of silver, so she ordered Qiu Bi to go back and send it to Meizhen. In addition, I discussed with Meizhen about opening a store. At this time, Meizhen's maid Chunzhi had already brought out more than a dozen packaged mirrors from the warehouse, as well as twenty sets of finely packaged glass products. was sent to Wen Hui's carriage.

Wen Hui saw that it was not early, so she said goodbye, and did not forget to make fun of Meizhen when she left. provoked Meizhen's face to be red all the time. Silver Fang bit it a few times.

When Wen Hui arrived at home, she found that her brothers were all in her mother's room, and Liu Yan was also there. As soon as you enter the door. I heard Wen Lin say: "My sister came just in time, and we are discussing." You can leave for Huating County the day after tomorrow, and you said that you are not here, you are not coming back. ”

Wen Hui already knew that the day after tomorrow would leave, and the ship was still the deposit she sent someone to pay. and sit there and listen to what else they have to command. Liu Yan said: "A few days ago, my father came to the secret decree, saying that he agreed that I would take two million silver and sea charts to participate in the shares. Didn't ask where the charts came from. In addition, because I contributed to the imperial court for the nautical chart. Therefore many rewards were given. Thanks to Sister Wen Hui for this. ”

Wen Hui smiled and didn't make a sound. Chen Yuanheng said: "Now Huating County is managed by the princess and the concubine, and they are building a new city. This new city was appointed by the emperor, and if you go, it is estimated that you will also help build the new city. In addition, ships are being built there, and it is estimated that they will not be able to sail into the sea until the beginning of next year, when the freezing period in the north is over. During this time, they were just training sailors. Sailors, as well as shipbuilding, building new cities. You have gone to hear the distribution of the princess and the colt. “

Wen Jun and Wen Lin, Wen Hui hurriedly agreed. A few more people said something, and then they dispersed. On the third day, the Wen Hui brothers and sisters took a boat, took their respective escorts, and a large number of craftsmen recruited before to go to the new city of Huating County.

At this time, it was already early winter, and it was already a little cold, and Wen Hui was already wearing a small thin jacket. This time, she brought the Hua sisters and her master Wu Lixia, as well as twenty male guards, and her brothers also brought a lot of guards. The three brothers and sisters on the voyage along the way are not lonely, talking and laughing. After eight days of sailing, the fleet finally arrived in Huating County. When I arrived at the dock, someone had already greeted her, but it was a beautiful housekeeper. There is also a shrewd and capable butler. Wen Lin saw it with sharp eyes, and said to his sister: "These two people are husband and wife, the male is Xu Wei, the big housekeeper in the princess's mansion, and the female is the princess's former personal palace maid Yurui, who was later married to Xu Wei by the princess, and now they are all Mama Xu." ”

Wen Hui wanted to vomit blood, is there such a young grandmother? There is no way, this era is like this, and a woman has no right to use a name as soon as she gets married. You can only follow your husband's surname. Just thinking about it, Mama Xu Yurui had already greeted them with a smile, first saluted them, and then said: "Childe, the girls are tired, our princess and the concubine were supposed to greet them in person, because the city is being built, and many things are entangled, so we can only let the maidservants come to greet them, don't be too lazy." The princess has prepared delicacies for the princess in the princess's mansion, and the girls have picked up the wind. Please follow the slave and maid into the carriage. ”

Wen Hui hurriedly said: "You're welcome, Mama, we were originally here to listen to the princess's dispatch, take us to meet the princess." I've admired my cousin for a long time. “

Yurui smiled and took the Chen family brothers and sisters to the city. Along the way, Wen Hui and Yurui chatted, Yurui spoke neither humbly nor arrogantly, and Wen Hui liked it very much.

When she was about to arrive at the princess's mansion, Wen Hui inadvertently asked, "Did the emperor name this new city?" ”

Yurui said: "It's been up a long time ago, and it is said that it is the name that was obtained from Emperor Guanglie in the previous dynasty, and it is called Shanghai City." ”

Wen Hui only felt that the five thunders were booming, and she was speechless for a while. Yurui sensed something strange and said, "What? Does the girl think there's something wrong with the name? The slave maid thinks it's very good, and it's very suitable for sea trade. ”

Wen Hui scolded in her heart, this dead Fusu, there is his shadow everywhere, it is really far-reaching.

Thinking in her heart, Wen Hui said: "I also think this name is very special, and it is very suitable for sea trade." ”

As he spoke, he had arrived at the Princess's Mansion. After getting off the carriage and walking for a while, Wen Hui found that this mansion was a newly built mansion, and many places were still under construction, but in fact, the entire city of Shanghai was a huge construction site, and there was construction everywhere. No wonder so many craftsmen are needed.

The Chen brothers and sisters waited in the flower hall for a while, and finally saw the princess and the concubine come together. When Wen Hui saw Princess Lichuan for the first time, she couldn't help but take a serious look. I saw that the princess was wearing a rose-purple and flower-wearing jacket, covered with a snow-blue gown with water-green teeth, a pleated cherry blossom red skirt underneath, and a pair of embroidered shoes full of embroidered beads on her feet. There is a delicate ring bun on his head, with a red gold distraction full of ponds, two jade lotus hairpins, and two delicate gemstone flowers on each side, which looks extremely exquisite. The long one is also very beautiful, the face of the long is pink and delicate, the big and bright eyes are extraordinarily bright, and the body naturally exudes this kind of proud luxury.

The horse next to him is long and jade, with a graceful demeanor, and is also a beautiful man.

As soon as Princess Lichuan saw them, she said, "This is Sister Wen Hui, right?" It's really a little beauty, no wonder your brothers say hello all day long. I liked it when I saw it today. ”

Wen Hui couldn't help but praise in her heart, sure enough, as her brothers said, this princess has no steam at all, and she treats people kindly, making people feel like a spring breeze. Wen Hui still saluted the princess and said: "Sister Princess, I also want to see you, my father and brother say hello all day long, and ask me to study more like Sister Princess. ”

Princess Lichuan asked, "Which one?" ”

Wen Hui said with a smile: "I just didn't say that the princess sister is so beautiful, but the most beautiful woman I have ever seen since I grew up?" ”

Princess Lichuan immediately laughed and said, "My sister is really smart and lovely. ”

Wen Hui said: "Fortunately, I have prepared to bring a gift to the princess sister, and this gift is suitable for a beauty like you." ”

One sentence immediately made Princess Lichuan interested and said, "What gift?" ”

Wen Hui asked the maid Qiubi to bring the gift box. Princess Lichuan took a look at Yurui, Yurui hurriedly took it, and opened it on the table, inside was a delicate carved wooden box, and when she opened the box, a mirror inlaid with bronze aquatic plants was taken out. While holding it, Yurui saw her clear face in the mirror, and even the hairs on her face were clear, and she couldn't help but look strange in her eyes, and her expression became weird.

Princess Lichuan was also curious when she looked at the jade, this jadeite was brought out by her in the palace, she hadn't seen anything, why was she so breathless and showed such an expression?

Just thinking about it, Yurui had already taken out the mirror and handed it to Princess Lichuan's hand. As soon as Princess Lichuan got the mirror, she saw her picturesque face in the mirror, and even the hair on her sideburns was clearly visible, and she couldn't help but let out an "ah".

The colt also turned his head sideways to take a look, and when he looked at it, he saw that his appearance in the mirror was clearly visible, and he couldn't help but be surprised and said, "We have glass mirrors in every house, but this is the first time I have seen such a clear one." I don't know how Sister Wen Hui got it? ”

Hearing this, Princess Lichuan also put down the mirror and looked at Wen Hui curiously. Wen Hui smiled and said, "This is made by me in a glass workshop that my future sister-in-law and I opened together, and we will sell it in the store in the future." This is the first batch of goods, I didn't let them sell, first gave them to my relatives and friends. I don't know if the princess sister likes it? ”

Princess Lichuan smiled like a flower: "No wonder Cousin Wenjun and Cousin Wenlin have always said that you are smart and capable, it turns out to be true, at such a young age, you are already in the workshop." What a capable one. ”

Wen Hui was busy and humbled a few words. At this time, a maid came in and said that the meal had been set up, and asked if she wanted to sit down now. The princess and the concubine hurriedly asked the three brothers and sisters of the Chen family to eat and drink together. Of course, Wen Hui drank tea. At the meal, the princess and the colt talked and laughed freely, but immediately adjusted their anger very well.

As soon as I finished eating, someone came to report that Ma Mingsong was coming.
