Two days after their meeting, the pearl arrived. On this day, Chen Wenhui, Wan Qiaozhen, and Huang Yuyan all made an appointment to go to the dock to pick up Mingzhu.

When I arrived at the dock, I waited for a while, and saw several large ships slowly approaching the shore, and one of the main ships had an official's lantern hanging on it, which should be Liu Jingyuan's official title. walked in and took a look, sure enough, Liu Jingyuan was already an auxiliary minister of the cabinet. This upgrade is fast enough. When he did, Chen Wenhui's father was also an auxiliary minister in the cabinet. However, Liu Jingyuan is young. Although the ministers of the DPRK and the Central Committee also criticized, the emperor overrode public opinion, and everyone knew that Liu Jingyuan was the emperor's confidant, so he didn't dare to speak anymore.

Mingzhu has become a first-class lady at such a young age, which is really amazing, so Chen Wenhui is not the only one on the dock, almost the entire Jiangnan ladies have arrived, and there are incense cars everywhere, but Chen Wenhui's status is the highest, and everyone can only let Chen Wenhui be at the front.

After the boat docked, a few servants came down first, all sorted out, and the pearl slowly appeared, only to see her wearing a hairpin with tired silk silver phoenix beads, and the pearl flower inlaid with pearls in silver wire, although a plain white, but also trembling, a piece of pearl and treasure. He was draped in a dark green plain mink cape, which looked particularly luxurious. This is still considered to be her Qianqianyu hand, and she is still holding a beautiful woman.

This beautiful woman is also a dazzling silver ornament on her head, her posture is not worse than Mingzhu, but a little more graceful, and the ladies in the entire Jiangnan are guessing who this beautiful woman is walking with Mingzhu, and when she walks side by side with Mingzhu, Wan Qiaozhen has been surprised and said: "Oh, it's Sister Caiyu." ”

Isn't. It was Lan Caiyu who disembarked with Mingzhu.

At this moment, the entire Jiangnan noblewoman layer was shaken, and I had long heard that Lan Caiyu, the married daughter of the Lan family, had a good relationship with the county lord of Wenhui and Mrs. Mingzhu in the boudoir, and now I see that it is true. Didn't you see it, the county lord personally went to the dock to greet him, and Mrs. Mingzhu accompanied her, and the state was still so close.

The whole Lan Caiyu is now called Lady Lan, but she was a popular figure in Jiangnan some time ago. She and her husband reconciled and left. Originally, among the noblewomen. Heli is big news. She is still a wealthy family in Jiangnan. The next head of the Wang family, the maiden bank of Concubine Wang Xian in the palace, and the next head of the Wang family.

After He Li, he got a large amount of money, which has shocked Jiangnan, and it is even more bizarre. Soon. And the royal family fell. Slaughtered all over the house. Everyone is not amazed, Mrs. Lan escaped the catastrophe, it is really prescient. Madame Lan, who escaped the catastrophe, did not keep a low profile. Instead, she rescued the old lady of the Wang family, who was her ex-husband's grandmother. also returned the gold and silver grange that the old lady gave her to the old lady, and bought back the Wang family's old house in Ancheng for the old lady. settled the old lady's old age.

This is already very admirable, I heard that she didn't have time to care about the opening of her own shop, and went to the capital to redeem her former mother-in-law. This time she became famous in Jiangnan, and there were dramas about her in the teahouse.

During this period of time, she received the most praise in Jiangnan. This is already a dare not underestimate her. Now, as soon as she appeared, it was such a big pomp, the county lord took it personally, and Mrs. Mingzhu joined hands. The noblewomen of the entire Jiangnan are planning in their hearts, whether they have a good impression of Mrs. Lan or not, in the future. Be friendly.

I also have to tell my husband and family not to conflict with Mrs. Lan, and to unite Mrs. Lan. Her backing is too strong.

What do these Jiangnan ladies think, Chen Wenhui and Mingzhu don't care. The sisters finally got together easily, and they were all busy holding hands tightly, and after half a sound, Chen Wenhui said, "Let's go, Sister Mingzhu and Sister Caiyu have worked hard along the way." We have already booked a banquet in Qinghe Building, so let's eat in Qinghe Building. ”

Mingzhu hesitated for a moment and said, "Let's go to Qinghe Building tomorrow, right?" I also wanted to go see my father first. I haven't seen my father in years. ”

Caiyu was also busy saying: "I went to the capital to redeem my mother-in-law, and also redeemed some stewards, maids, grandmothers and the like, a lot of people, all of them have to be arranged." Shall we meet again in the evening, or tomorrow? ”

Chen Wenhui thought about it and said, "In this way, let's just go to Qinghe Building tomorrow for a party." In this way, Sister Mingzhu can also meet her father first, and Sister Caiyu should also settle down. I'll send a maid to talk to Qinghelou. Anyway, my mother's restaurant is out of the way. ”

Huang Yuyan and Wan Qiaozhen had to agree.

However, the few of them went to the teahouse next to the pier to find a private room, sat down and talked for a while, drank tea, and then dispersed.

When drinking tea, Wan Qiaozhen couldn't help asking: "Sister Mingzhu is coming back, we got the letter in advance, why did Sister Caiyu come back with Sister Mingzhu." Such a coincidence? ”

Lan Caiyu said with a smile: "It's not a coincidence, it's that I have already agreed with Mingzhu and come back together." ”

Now everyone understands.

Lan Caiyu said: "You probably know about me, I went to the capital this time to redeem my mother-in-law and some subordinates." Of course, he also redeemed several children of the Wang family. However, you know, how inconvenient it is for me to be a woman to do things in the capital, so I didn't think about it so much, I directly found Mingzhu and told her the reason, Mingzhu is also a simple one, so let people do everything for me. From beginning to end, I'm just going to provide a list of who you want. ”

Mingzhu held her mouth and laughed.

Lan Caiyu continued: "Some of these people are still in prison, some have been assigned to the Teaching Division, and some are living on the streets. There are also those who have been sold to others as slaves. As soon as Sister Mingzhu's steward came forward, whether it was the yamen, officials, or the rich businessmen who bought these people, they didn't say a word, handed over the people, and didn't even ask me for money. So, even though I brought a bunch of people back, I didn't spend much money. ”

Chen Wenhui laughed: "This business is earned, no money is spent, but the reputation is won, and it is worth it for the children to have a good reputation in the future." ”

Lan Caiyu also smiled and said, "You are still smart, and you know my intentions at once." I went all the way to the capital, do I really have a relationship with my mother-in-law? I'm here for my kids. said that I was selling my reputation, and I also admitted it. If you want to talk about the relationship with the Wang family, I just have feelings with the old lady of the Wang family, and she is really good to me. There are also a few loyal subordinates in my time of danger, and some upright stewards. But, the others, hmph, forget it. ”

"If I go to the capital and just rescue a few stewards and subordinates, then the world will say about me, and I am not afraid to say it, I am afraid that it will affect the reputation of my children. So, simply, I rescued my mother-in-law and the children of the Wang family. After all, although adults are hateful, children are innocent, and they and my children are connected by blood. For the sake of the children, I also have to reach out. ”

When Chen Wenhui heard this, she was very happy and said: "I'm just afraid that you are too virgin, you will use all your bad intentions, and you can't save them. Why bother with them. However, Sister Caiyu, you did a good job this time, saved these people, gained a good reputation, and it will be beneficial for you to do business in the future, the future of your children, and your marriage. ”

Mingzhu nodded and said, "That's what I said too." Take me, for example. My mother is divorced, and my future is not good, and it will be difficult to get married. However, my mother was inadvertently known for her medical skills, and of course it was all my stepmother's help. Now in Da Chu, anyone who mentions me respects three points, first, because of my husband, and secondly, because of my mother's good name, which is too important for children. In fact, I am the daughter of a divorced woman, and I am the father of a criminal, all of which are hidden from my mother's great reputation. ”

Caiyu smiled slightly and held Mingzhu's hand.

Chen Wenhui said: "Sister Caiyu, you didn't save Wang Zhicheng's concubines and his second wife, right?" ”

When Lan Caiyu heard this, her face turned cold and said, "Where do their beauties need me to save them?" Wang Zhicheng's blood was not cold yet, so they went to find their own homes. Most of them were bought by the next family that had been found a long time ago, and they went to the big families to be concubines, call slaves and maids, and work against the master's mother. There are also those Wang Zhicheng who got it out of the Qinglou, and it is even simpler, and he goes back to the Qinglou directly, and it is still a red card. Live a good life of singing every night. As for the second lady, she didn't get any benefits. ”

After all, their family is an official family, and they can't let their daughter show up outside like this, so they redeemed it early, and took into account people's discussions, and ransomed the children born by the second lady and raised them. I don't have to worry about that, and I don't want to worry about it. ”

Chen Wenhui smiled slightly and looked at Mingzhu.

Mingzhu said: "I am familiar with the second lady's house. The second lady was originally a concubine, and she was not treated well at home, or she couldn't be a concubine. Now, when I return home, where is there still a place for her to stand, I have heard that it is extremely bitter, and she and the children can't even eat, it is not as good as when Sister Caiyu was in Anseong. ”

Chen Wenhui frowned and said, "After all, it's an official eunuch's family, why don't you even give you a full meal?" ”

Mingzhu sneered and said, "Whose family is missing so little food, isn't it intentional?" I can't eat enough, I can't dress warmly, I go back and die, it's not their family's business, and I don't shame their people. At least it's better than dying outside. The most disgusting thing in this is Wang Yaozhen. It's our friend in vain, something so big happened to her mother's family, she can't stop it. After that, I should always go to the Workshop Division to save my mother, right? The bloodline left by the eldest brother should also be taken care of. Although she fell out of favor in the palace, she was still one of the four concubines, her status was respected, and the money of the Wang family was still in her hands, so she was reluctant to take it out, which was really chilling.
