Lin Xi said that he did not have a good impression of Mrs. Xia.

Cui Jinchen immediately sighed: "You are right, my aunt is from everyone, she knows piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and she is the most amiable." The Xia family is supported by my aunt, how can I compare with my aunt! ”

Lin Xi didn't want to get involved in the affairs of the Gao Mansion, so he thought of a topic casually and said, "Miss, why didn't I come with you." ”

"Jasmine was entangled by a few grandmothers, Zizhan was busy greeting guests, I was bored, and I came out to breathe."

Lin Xi pondered, "How are you in the palace now?" ”

Cui Jinchen was not interested, "Okay!" ”

"After the death day of the first emperor, I am afraid that the will of the queen will be made, you will stay up for a few more months, if the queen mother refuses to let go, I will say a few words for you in front of her old man."

Cui Jinchen's eyes lit up, and he said with a touched face: "Lin Xi, I won't say much about the side, if you have a place for me in the future, just speak." But if I can do it, I can't say anything. ”

Lin Xi glanced at him, and his heart was waiting for your words.

"In that case, you're welcome. The Cui family is powerful in the north, I want to make a deal with the Cui family, and I want to ask you to pull a line in the middle. ”

"You're a girl, what do you know about buying and selling?" Cui Jinchen said with a smile.

"You don't have to worry about this, do you just say yes, or shouldn't?" Lin Xi said with a smile.

Cui Jinchen said disapprerovingly: "Let's hear it!" ”

Lin Xi approached, and as soon as he whispered in his ear, Cui Jinchen's smiling face gradually revealed surprise.

"You mean, you want to borrow the power of the Cui family. Open up the trade road between the north and the south, and then divide the profits into three percent to the Cui family. ”

"This three-percent profit is not so easy to earn. In the name of King Jing, it is not difficult to get through, but it just takes some troubles. I still want the Cui family to contribute, but that's not all. ”

"What else to do?" Cui Jinchen said curiously.

"The protégés of the Cui family are all over Kyushu, and most of them are officials and politicians, although the momentum is not as good as before, they can still speak. When my junior brother wants to do business in various states and prefectures, let the Cui family write a letter and say hello everywhere! ”

It is the so-called cooperation between government and business. in order to maximize the benefits. Not to mention the Cui family's connections. Only the name of the Cui family is already beneficial and harmless for the junior brother.

The wool is out of the sheep, and since Sanchengli is willing to give it away, the Cui family is not a fool. Naturally, he knows how to do things with money. As long as the Cui family nodded. Then Lin Xi will have a way to earn back the thirty percent profit.

Cui Jinchen looked at Lin Xi with deep eyes. frowned and said: "What does the prince want to earn so much silver, isn't the property of King Jing's Mansion enough for him to squander?" ”

Lin Xi sighed deeply and said, "Senior brother, he is under a lot of pressure." You also know that place in the palace. It is impossible to move an inch without silver. The senior sister is a noble concubine, in fact, her status is not high, although she is favored by the emperor, she also has to use silver to attract all kinds of people, so that she can live a comfortable life. ”

Cui Jinchen thought about what happened to him and nodded thoughtfully.

"Senior brother, he still wants to earn me some dowry, and when he comes to his husband's family in the future, he will not be looked down upon. King Jing's Mansion looks at the big family and big business, but there are not many that can fall into the pockets of the junior brothers. My junior brother is an ambitious person, and he can't rely on King Jing for everything. That's why I thought about helping him. In fact, to put it bluntly, he is also saving money for my own dowry. ”

Lin Xi's colorful performance made Cui Jinchen sigh in his heart. Although the people of the Lin family are not from a high background, once they were powerful, they did not forget to be prepared for danger in times of peace, which is really impressive.

Compared with him, the second ancestor who relied on the blessing of his ancestors, he couldn't carry a basket in his hands, and he couldn't carry the burden in his guts, and he not only didn't earn a tael of silver for the Cui family until now, but also spent his money like running water, I don't know how many times better.

Lin Xi took in his expression, picked out the book and said: "This matter, it will not let you work in vain, among the three percent of the Cui family's profits, I will give you one percent of the profits alone, and the other two percent will go to the Cui family." But...... Whether it can be done or not depends on Jinchen's ability! ”

Cui Jinchen was so shocked that he could stuff an egg into his mouth.

This Lin Xi, why is he so bold, he actually instigated him to earn the Cui family's silver. This...... This...... Is it the work of a gentleman?

Cui Jinchen blushed and said, "No need...... A gentleman loves money and takes it in a good way, how can I ......"

"Cui Jinchen!"

Lin Xi interrupted him: "In the big family, not all brothers and brothers, sometimes it is okay to keep a hind leg for yourself!" ”

"You...... You ......"

Cui Jinchen was so angry that he spoke incoherently: "Only women...... It's hard to raise with villains! ”

After that, he threw up his sleeves and left.

"Where are you going, don't you say it's better to go to the third miss......"

Cui Jinchen didn't look back, and said angrily: "I will take advantage of today's convenience to go to Zizhan's study to write the letter, and you will send someone to Cui's house by yourself when you turn around." ”

Lynsey hugged her chest and smiled happily.

"Girl, why did Young Master Cui leave in a huff?" Xia Feng stepped forward.

"He, this must be disgusted with the smell of copper all over my body!"

Xia Feng said disdainfully: "It is said that a penny is difficult for a hero, but Young Master Cui has never suffered from the lack of silver, so he dislikes the copper smell of silver." ”

"Who says it isn't!" Lin Xi's eyebrows were furrowed.

"Girl, let's go!"

"Xia Feng, aren't you going to the Third Lady's Courtyard?"

"Why didn't you go again?"

Lin Xi smiled: "Just now I was just making an excuse in a hurry." The third lady has the best relationship with Mrs. Xian, and at this juncture, she must stay in Mrs. Xian's courtyard more. I will go, will not I stumble on her feet? ”

"So, where are we going, it's still early for the table?"

"Go to the lotus."

Xia Feng said with a smile: "I knew I was going there, why didn't the girl go with Young Master Cui just now." ”

Lin Xi said a little helplessly: "If I go with him again, the eldest lady will know, won't she hate me to death, or avoid it!" ”

……

Let's say that Cui Jinchen and Lin Xi separated, and did not go to Gao Zizhan's Tairan Courtyard, but walked through the garden all the way to the north.

He vaguely remembered that Mama Tan's yard should be in the northwest corner.

Cui Jinchen has long heard of this Mama Tan in Gaofu. The old man who knew that she was coming out of the palace, because she was good at training people, was invited by various high-ranking families.

My aunt was not in good health and was unable to discipline her daughter, so she invited Mama Tan to teach the four young ladies the rules at a high price, so she has been staying in Gaofu for the past few years.

Cui Jinchen looked left and right twice, saw that there was no one around, and quickly walked into a secluded courtyard.

The two begonias in the yard are still the same, and other than that, there is no half of the view. Cui Jinchen had no intention of appreciating it. I pinched my throat and called twice.

"Who?" A woman in her fifties came out of the house with a broom.

"Dare to ask. Are you Mama Tan? Cui Jinchen cautiously tempted.

"Who are you, and what are you doing with me?" Mama Tan looked defensive, and her voice was a little higher than that of the young man who suddenly broke into her yard.

Cui Jinchen has never been disliked like this. The heart says that you are willing to come. What's so good about the gloomy yard in this yard.

Cui Jinchen knows what he is doing. It must not be seen, for otherwise, it will be doomed. The woman who didn't care about the front eyes frowned coldly, stepped forward and lowered her voice, and said three words: "Chonghua Palace!" ”

As soon as these words came out, Cui Jinchen clearly saw that Mama Tan's face was miserable.

I saw her rush out with a sword step, poke her head out, look left and right a few times, and close the courtyard door heavily.

……

"Say, what happened to Chonghua Palace?" Mama Tan's cloudy eyes showed a fine light.

Cui Jinchen swallowed his saliva, took out a purse from his arms, didn't bother to hand it to her, threw it on the table, and said coldly: "Someone asked me to bring it to you!" ”

Mama Tan grabbed it in her hand like she saw a baby, and said sharply: "Does that person have anything to say?" ”

Cui Jinchen shook his head and said, "That person only asked me to give you something, and there was not a word on the side!" He also said that as long as I give you this purse, you will tell me the secret of Chonghua Palace! ”

Mama Tan's wrinkled face twitched, and there was a sneer in her eyes.

"If it were someone else, I would keep my promise. Is it just you...... I have been favored by my first wife, and let me dwell here, you are her son-in-law, and it is better not to know this secret! ”

The reason why Cui Jinchen took the risk to send the purse was purely to know who the silver-haired woman in Chonghua Palace was.

Mrs. Tan has got her things in hand, but she used her aunt as an excuse to cross the river and dismantle the sedan chair, how could he stop there!

"You...... How can you not believe your word! If you don't say it today, I won't go." ”

Cui Jinchen thought that this plan was very good, who knows. In the eyes of Mrs. Tan, it was a child playing a scoundrel's trick.

"Okay, anyway, the old woman has a lot of time, so I'll sit with the young master!"

"You-"

Cui Jinchen was furious: "You're not afraid that I will leak this matter?" ”

Mrs. Tan sneered: "If the young master is not afraid that the people in the palace will know that you have delivered things out of the palace privately, just go and shout, and I will not be the only one who will not be good at that time!" ”

"Count you ruthless!"

Cui Jinchen slapped the table, trembling with anger, his temples jumped suddenly, and he threw his sleeves straight out.

The general walked out of the courtyard, but he heard the courtyard gate behind him fall heavily, Cui Jinchen didn't think about it, raised his leg and kicked the door twice.

"Old witch, you dare to threaten Young Master Ben, let's see!"

……

Mama Tan heard that there was no movement outside, and hurriedly trotted into the house, closed the doors and windows tightly, lit candles, and opened the lotus flowers, except for a few taels of silver, it was empty.

She was not surprised, she took the purse in her hand and looked back and forth, and after a while, took out the scissors and opened the inner layer of the purse bit by bit.

When she saw what was exposed inside, Mama Tan let out a sigh of relief and collapsed on the chair, her eyes dark.

……

"Miss, after Aunt Wang kowtowed to Mrs. Xian, she went to the back garden!" Ziwei ran in panting.

Before Gao Iris could speak, the curtain was lifted: "Miss, the second young master also went to the garden." ”

After picking the strings a few times, the high iris stood up, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Where is Aunt He now?"

"The slave maid saw Aunt He in Xiyun Courtyard." Layue was busy.

"What about the people of the Mei family?"

Layue shook her head: "The slave didn't see it!" ”

Gao Iris walked to the desk step by step, stared at the bookcase for a long time, and suddenly turned around and said: "Find a maid who has nothing to do with us, and let her pass the word to the fourth lady, just say that the Mei family asked her to meet in the northeast corner of the garden, and the young master of the Mei family has something to bring her." ”

"Miss!" Crape myrtle and Lamei exclaimed in surprise.

Gao Iris sneered: "Your young lady, I should also pay a good tribute to the person who bullied me!" ”

"By the way, find out the chess book that the young master gave me?"

Ziwei's eyes widened: "Miss, what are you going to do here?" ”

Gao Iris looked at her with a complicated expression, and smiled: "Don't do anything, such a valuable thing, I think it's better to return it to the young master, and I have to let the eldest sister know, causing unnecessary misunderstandings and ruining the relationship between sisters." ”

Crape myrtle and Lamei looked at each other, and they had nothing to say for a while.

……

It is said that Lin Xi went all the way to Tairan Courtyard, and there were familiar maids on the road, and the mother-in-law came up to say hello.

Looking at these comrades-in-arms who used to get along with each other day and night, Lin Xi couldn't bear to refuse, so he kissed Renxiang very much, and the dozens of taels of silver prepared in advance soon bottomed out.

When everyone left satisfied, Lin Xi realized that he was about to go dozens of feet away.

Xia Feng quipped: "Girl, where are these people greeting the girl, they are all here to greet the silver in the girl's arms!" ”

Lin Xi said disapprovingly: "Who let the landlord's family have surplus grain? ”

Xia Feng smiled angrily: "The girl has plenty of surplus food, why don't you reward the slaves and maids?" ”

Lin Xi flicked his sleeves and said with a smile: "Don't worry, you guys are more than just surplus food, that's going to touch my old book." When I look back and get married, just like Dongxue, three thousand taels of silver per person, only a lot more! ”

Dongxue lifted her aunt, and Lin Xi was afraid that she would not have any private silver on her, so she cheekily asked Lin Bei for three thousand taels of silver for makeup. Lin Bei added another five hundred taels on his own initiative to count his share. For a while, it attracted the envy of the people of Shin Shin Yuan.

Xia Feng blushed and said half ashamedly: "Who wants to marry, the slave maid and the autumn rain will serve the girl for a lifetime!" ”

"Lin Xi, I've been waiting for you for a long time, why are you still here!" Lotus walked over with a straight face.

Seeing that it was her, Lin Xi hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile: "Sister Lotus, I was delayed on the way, and I was about to see you?" Let's see, does my purse look good today? ”

Seeing that the lotus flowers were made by themselves, they smiled and said, "The little maid said that you were coming over, so I waited for you for a long time." ”

Lin Xi smiled without saying a word, and glanced at Xia Feng, who took out a small brocade from his arms and stuffed it into the lotus flower's hand.

"What does that mean?" The lotus flower sank her face.

"A few days ago, I went to the Tongling Pavilion to take inventory, and I happened to see that there were two strings of tourmaline in hand, and it was rare that they were exactly the same, thinking that our sisters were wearing the same thing, which was a beautiful thing, so I bought it."

Lin Xi was afraid that the lotus would not believe it, so he hurriedly pulled his sleeves up, and on the white jade-like hand bowl, the colorful beads were all round and full, crystal clear.

Lin Xi said as she put her hand on the lotus hand, shook her head and sighed: "The things in the two hands of Sister Lotus are the same as mine, thinking about it makes me feel beautiful in my heart!" ”

The lotus has been following Cui's for many years, and her vision is naturally not bad, and she also knows that this thing in her hand is absolutely extraordinary.

Her heart fluctuated slightly.

Although she is the slave of the eldest young master, Lin Xi treats her so sincerely, and there are some things that should be told to Lin Xi earlier.

Thinking of this, Lotus took Lin Xi's hand and said: "People come and go here, not a place to talk, let's go to the garden, I have something to tell you!" ”

"Why are you so mysterious?"

Lotus gritted her teeth: "I'll talk about it later!" ”
