Shuilian continued: "Gardenia is more beautiful than Mingzi, she is still from a noble background, her temperament is naturally better, and her temperament is more sincere. All this, although Akiko made a happy appearance, but, in private, Akiko was very jealous. She's ready to get rid of Gardenia. At this time, several women from southern Xinjiang arrived, and Mingzi turned to use the hands of southern Xinjiang women to deal with Gardenia. Gardenia is innocent and cute, she didn't know that Mingzi harmed her, and she encountered the black hands of those two southern Xinjiang women several times, but she just hated those two southern Xinjiang women. Cry to Muli. After Mu Li Gongzi found out, he naturally wanted to protect Gardenia, and he had already punished the two southern Xinjiang women several times. ”

Chen Wenhui laughed and said: "So, Mingzi let them fight, and in the end, it must be Mingzi who will reap the benefits of the fisherman?" In this way, it is possible that Mingzi will have a great transformation in the future? ”

Shuilian wanted to speak and stopped, with a worried look on her face.

Chen Wenhui asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Shuilian said: "I have been observing for so long, and I have found that although there are many struggles in Mu Li Gongzi's house, and Mu Li Gongzi has always been partial to Mingzi and the two of them, but his punishment of these two southern Xinjiang women is not heavy, and every time it is thunder and rain. ”

Chen Wenhui showed a thoughtful look: "So, Mu Li has doubts about Mingzi and Gardenia?" ”

Shuilian said: "The maid we gave to Master Muli, Master Mu naturally knows that this is our person, I don't think he is for this reason." I think, actually. Mu Li Gongzi has the same attitude towards these concubines. It's just his plaything. He didn't give it sincerely, and even, he deliberately provoked their fight, as if to add fun to life. ”

Chen Wenhui probably understood. smiled, and was about to say something, outside, Shui Han came in and said, "County Lord, the Lan family received the post and knew that the County Lord was leaving." I sent some gifts. ”

Chen Wenhui nodded. Shui Han took the list and came over.

While looking at it, he said: "The Lan family has become a huge rich man in Jiangnan in the past few years. Their family followed my father honestly and loyally, I heard that several children of the Lan family have become officials of my eldest brother? ”

Shui Han said, "Yes." One is the deputy city lord of the Acropolis on the side of the eldest prince. One was the financial officer of the eldest prince in a city in the Wa Kingdom. ”

Chen Wenhui said: "Our family is also worthy of the Lan family. The Lan family did not suffer a loss with us, but the Lan family was indeed cautious. these years. I heard from my mother that the cotton cloth business run by our family and the Lan family has brought huge profits to our Xiao Chen family. ”

Shui Han said: "No, now, although the people in the north still wear kudzu hemp, they also use cotton quilts, and every family grows cotton." Jiangnan planted more, and the people didn't wear kudzu hemp anymore, and most of them wore cotton clothes. The Lan family is now giving those ordinary cotton cloth businesses to various cloth merchants, just to extract a little profit. Won the unanimous praise of those cloth merchants. The Lan family is now mainly engaged in the fine cotton cloth business. Now the price of fine cotton cloth is not at all cheaper than that of fine silk. ”

Chen Wenhui knows this. I also appreciate that the Lan family is so smart. This market is so big, if you dominate it, you may not get much, but you have set up a circle of enemies, it is better to take the most profitable piece, and distribute the rest to everyone, so that you can make money and get a circle of friends, which is a smart one.

Moreover, fine cotton cloth is indeed a luxury. Even in Chen Wenhui's previous life, muslin cloth was expensive. Now Chen Wenhui's underwear is made of muslin. Not only Chen Wenhui, but also ordinary wealthy families and eunuchs, most of them are like this now, so although fine cotton cloth is expensive, it has always had a big market.

It seems that before, as the Wen family said, the general distribution of Huzhou given by the Lan family to the Wen family is about the right to sell fine cotton cloth. The Wen family relied on this to make a lot of money.

Chen Wenhui said: "Help me thank the people of the Lan family, take my post, pick up a few things we brought from southern Xinjiang, and send them to the Lan family, which is a thank you gift." ”

The water cold hurriedly came down.

Chen Wenhui said to Shui Lian: "These things, pick them up, register them, put them on the salute, and transport them back to the capital." Take out these muslin cloths, and I will give them to the Huang family, the Yan family, the Cao family, and a few good families. And these horses, too, I will give to my sisters. There are also these ordinary horses, which we will take out and prepare to give to those who will give me gifts in the next few days as a return gift. ”

The water lotus was busy coming down.

As he was talking, Shui Han returned and said, "Mrs. Lan is here." ”

The Lan Caiyu referred to by Mrs. Lan here, Chen Wenhui was very happy when she heard it, and hurriedly stood up and went out to greet her.

The two sisters hadn't seen each other for a few months, and they were extremely happy, and Chen Wenhui had already sent someone to Zhuangzi next door to call Mingzhu over.

After Lan Caiyu sat down, she said, "Why are you in such a hurry to leave?" ”

Chen Wenhui said: "We have been away from home for a long time, and it has been half a year, how can we not want to go home quickly? It's just that after we separate this time, I may have to go to the northwest, if you do business, go to the capital, and you can still see Sister Mingzhu, but there are fewer opportunities for us to meet. ”

Lan Caiyu didn't have such sadness, and said, "I don't think so. We have indeed met less in recent years, but after three years, after the soybean oil business in Jiangnan has stabilized, I am ready to go to the northwest to start a business. ”

Chen Wenhui was overjoyed, and hurriedly grabbed Lan Caiyu's arm and said, "Sister, is what you said true?" ”

Lan Caiyu smiled and said, "Why shouldn't it be true." Didn't you say that? When I get to the northwest, I will encourage the people there to grow beans, so I won't go to open an oil mill? ”

It's really true that Chen Wenhui likes to laugh. It would be nice to see my sisters again in the Northwest.

Lan Caiyu handed out a list from her arms and said to Chen Wenhui: "The things on this list were left by Mrs. Wang before she left, she sent some things to me, and also sent some things to Mingzhu, this one is for you." What is given to you is the most abundant. I hope you can take more care of their orphans and widows. ”

Chen Wenhui said: "Even if I don't have these gold jewelry, I will take care of them." Not to mention anything else, back then, there was still some incense with Mrs. Wang. The two old ladies of them have fallen into this field now, they are a lot old, and they have left their hometowns and were forced by the Bai family to go to Nanyang, they are already very pitiful, how can I not take care of them? ”

Lan Caiyu smiled and said, "I knew that you were kind, and you would definitely not sit idly by." So, I can take these things with confidence. ”

Chen Wenhui smiled.

At this time, Mingzhu's voice came: "But Sister Caiyu is here." ”

As soon as the curtain was lifted, Mingzhu appeared radiantly in front of the two people.

Mingzhu said to Lan Caiyu: "Sister, are you really here?" I guessed that you were here, and the courtyard was full of golden light. It's really a royal style. ”

Lan Caiyu smiled and said, "You have to make fun of the Wang family's style every time, let me tell you, these things are for you and Wen Hui." You took it back and put it at home, and your house became a royal style. ”

Mingzhu asked strangely: "Why did you want to give it to us again?" Haven't you already sent it before? ”

Lan Caiyu said: "Before it was thanks, this time it was a resignation." There are fewer for you and for me, and the ones for Wen Hui are really good things, and there are more. This is to tie up the meaning of Wen Hui. ”

Mingzhu sighed and said: "These two old ladies are also pitiful, when I think of this, I hate Wang Yaozhen even more." Hey, her mother, grandmother did we rescue, we helped, it was really infuriating. What about her, she only cares about herself, and when she can use her mother's house, she uses it to the extreme, even taking care of her brother's house, and also looking for a concubine for her brother, and when she can't use her mother's house, she kicks it away, as if the Wang family has nothing to do with her. It's really bad, you say, how did Yaozhen become like this after entering the palace? It's really a monster in this palace, and any kind of person will change if you go in. ”

When Chen Wenhui heard this, her face sank, some people have changed when they enter the palace, such as Wang Yaozhen, and some people still maintain their original intentions after entering the palace, such as Shi Yuesi. Therefore, this is also the time to look at the essence of the individual, for Wang Yaozhen, Chen Wenhui is really disappointed, she said: "Hmph, when I return to the capital, I will naturally go to her." ”

Lan Caiyu originally had a very good relationship with Wang Yaozhen, but she didn't expect that in the end, she would get a second lady for her husband Wang Zhicheng, and it was her good sister, sister-in-law Wang Yaozhen, who wanted to put Caiyu's mother and son to death.

Therefore, Lan Caiyu's hatred for Wang Yaozhen is no less than her hatred for the second lady Ren.

Hearing Chen Wenhui say this at this moment, she knew that Chen Wenhui was going back to find Wang Yaozhen, but she didn't stop it. She is not the Virgin, at this time, it is already good not to fall into the well, how can it be stopped.

Mingzhu mourned for Wang Yaozhen for three seconds in her heart, and then changed the topic and said: "My sister is here just in time, we are about to go back to the capital, and we are about to see my sister." ”

Lan Caiyu smiled and said, "I heard yesterday that the two of you are back, Yu Yan and I and Qiaozhen said okay, let's come here with you today." I arrived early, and I guess they should come over in a moment. ”

Chen Wenhui instructed the maids to put away all the gifts in the courtyard, and instructed: "You hurry up and tell the kitchen, prepare a good banquet, a little vegetarian, a little delicious, and send it to the water pavilion, and we just happen to enjoy the spring flowers together." ”

The water lotus was busy coming down.

On this day, Chen Wenhui and several sisters drank once. (To be continued......)
