Jingyi took her things and walked out, closed the door of the study, and went upstairs alone, and the moment she sat down, she felt that her limbs seemed to be making noise...... She carefully studied the two lines she had written on the paper. Tao Xiang's words are so powerful that it is a little difficult for her to imitate. If you blindly exert yourself, I am afraid that it will be too much, and I will be very careful when I write. The handwriting is already very similar, unless someone who is very familiar with Tao Xiang, it is enough to confuse the pearls...... She watched, and the handwriting on the card began to shake and was a little blurry. She realized it was her own hands that were shaking.

She folded the cards and put them in her snug pocket......

At dinnertime, Tao Xiang returned, although it was a little earlier than usual, but the family who had gathered in the front hall to eat because of the return of the Er'an family still delayed the meal time.

Jingyi saw that although Er An had been jailed during the day, she really saw Tao Xiangmian, who was her beloved brother, and she didn't have a word of reproach. After dinner, I brought my husband and sons to Langyuan to sit with them. During the chat, Fu Lianzhi mentioned the recent business of the Fu family, which went north of Mongolia from Suiyuan, and was often delayed due to the extremely strict investigation, and wanted Tao Xiang to take care of it. Since he held a position in the previous government, he didn't specifically manage the business of the family, so when he mentioned it seriously, Lian Er Andu Nahan, said with a smile: "Is this the sun coming out of the west?" My mother said a few days ago that you are obsessed with being an official, and you don't care about the family business. She can't wait for Yanqing to grow up as soon as the wind blows. ”

"I don't care anywhere." Fu Lianzhi said with a smile.

Tao Xiang said: "The recent strict investigation is mainly due to the embargo on weapons and drugs. The Fu family's tea and salt business is not among them, and it stands to reason that it should not be. I'll just get a special pass. Da"

"You don't have to do that, you just have to say hello to the people below. It's not just a matter of your words. Fu Lianzhi laughed.

When Er An heard this, he said: "We have to say hello and give a pass, so we don't have to be polite to him." The Fu family is doing a legitimate business, and giving some care is not to make trouble for him, so what's not okay? Can't I touch this little bit of mother's light? ”

Jingyi refilled the tea for Er An, and saw Tao Xiang leaning on the sofa and said lazily: "Eldest sister doesn't need to say that, I agreed." As he spoke, he stood up, and went to the study, and after a while, handed Fu Lianzhi a special pass.

Er An snorted, looked at Qilin'er and his sons who were playing with the white lion on the side, and said, "The world is difficult, and it is not easy to do business. I hope that there will be more stability, whether it is trade or industry, there will be improvement. Making the country rich and the people strong is not something that can be done with words. ”

Fu Lianzhi smiled and said to Tao Xiang: "I have not cared about the family's business for a long time, but your eldest sister often has to worry about it." If you want me to say it......"

"No wonder my mother said you were the shopkeeper. If I don't worry about the family affairs anymore, my mother will have even more hard work. Tao Eran frowned, and in a blink of an eye saw Jing Yi sitting on the side taking care of them drinking tea, "Presumably Jing Yi can understand something." The seventh child also doesn't care about family affairs. ”

Jingyi looked at Tao Xiang and smiled silently.

Tao Xiang said: "The eldest sister can say a few words to me no matter what." ”

"Speaking of which, the Cheng family's banking business is getting bigger and bigger." Er'an said, smiling rather than smiling. "According to me, Uncle Cheng's best investment is actually in people. Look, the third young master is now alone, and it is a holy decree to say a word, the ninth young master has been supported to run a bank in the past few years, and he sees that half of the business on the financial street in Shanghai has to be done with the surname Cheng. Not to mention a few daughters, all of them are well married...... Only Miss Seven has not yet left the cabinet, but it is even more special. I heard that she is now co-founding a girls' school with others, and she is also a teacher, which is really admirable. ”

Jingyi listened carefully to what Er An said and nodded. Zhiluan, she really insisted on her opinion. Zhichen refused to marry her beyond the distance, and she resolutely refused to marry the person chosen by the third wife for her...... Although Zhiluan is a piece of the third wife's heart, he is also the most maverick among the many children of the Cheng family. In her opinion, the future of Luan may also be the most accomplished in terms of personal achievements.

Jingyi thought about it every time, but felt that although this seventh sister was not on good terms with her, she was very worthy of her admiration in this regard.

Er'an shook his head and nodded, and it was inconvenient to praise and dismiss. Fu Lianzhi felt that she was talking a little too much tonight, and seeing that the time was about the same, he reminded her that it was time to go. Out of Langyuan, Fu Lianzhi said: "Don't you talk about the Cheng family in front of the seventh brother and seventh sister." ”

"Why don't you mention it? The Cheng family's business is booming, it's like cooking oil, I don't believe that such a big stall is being manipulated, is it losing money and making money? Hurry up and pay back all the money you owed to the Tao family back then, and it will also save Lao Qifan from having to make some moves, and he can't do anything if he doesn't make it up. I felt sorry for him. Er'an frowned.

If it weren't for the fear that her brother-in-law Jingyi wouldn't be able to get over in person, what she just said would be more straightforward. This is all the truth, and Jingyi also knows it, and there is nothing to avoid.

"Not necessarily. Isn't the Tao family also called a 'rich country'? It is not known whether the Cheng family is the same. In the end, the Cheng family has a Cheng Zhichen, and some of the good and some of the bad have to bear some right and wrong. Life is good or bad, after all, we are not them, how do we know the inside story? Besides, is the seventh brother really not rich? Fu Lianzhi asked with a smile.

Er An glanced at him, took the hand of his youngest son Yan Bin, and said, "If he has money, he is still like this?" ”

Fu Lianzhi just laughed.

Er An frowned and said, "There is something wrong with your words tonight, don't be a small official with a sesame mung bean, just take chicken feathers as an arrow, and find fault with the Yue family." I'll tell you ......"

Fu Lianzhi saw that his wife was going to be annoyed, so he smiled and made amends, and said with a smile as he walked: "Your temper is also unbearable." It's only been a day since I returned to my parents' house, and you don't dare to provoke it except for your father, so you can fight with it one by one! I'm also going to break down the situation with you. But let's talk about it, it's between us husband and wife, why not? ”

"Don't talk nonsense!" Er'an grimaced.

Fu Lianzhi smiled: "Okay, good, never talk nonsense in the future...... So Fei Yuming has been engaged in auditing recently, can this always be said? That's what we're thinking about. ”

Er'an listened, silent.

"In my opinion, Fei Yuming's intentions are obvious. It's best if the seventh brother is not short of money, if he is really short of money, he should really think of a way as soon as possible. If it drags on, I'm afraid Nanjing will not sit idly by. It's hard to say if you take the opportunity to make trouble. Although Fu Lianzhi was still smiling, there was already worry in his eyes.

The husband and wife looked at each other and knew each other that Fei Yuming would not take such a risky move no matter what.

"Which province is not in a mess of finances today? There are problems with checking. Er An scoffed.

"That's what I said. I believe that my father and the seventh child will never seek personal gain in their position. Not to mention, counterinsurgency and bandits all need money. If you don't give it from above, but you want to fight from below, what kind of calculation is this? Fu Lianzhi said.

Er'an looked at him and said softly, "You have to come with me to visit your father because of this?" ”

Fu Lianzhi smiled and said, "Who do you think of me?" This is my father-in-law, and of course I'm going to visit. Anything else...... Don't talk about business at home, this is the teaching of my father-in-law. ”

Er'an smiled and said as he walked, "I think of a joke at this point." ”

"What joke?" Fu Lianzhi asked.

"I just married into the Fu family back then, do you remember? The fourth grandmother didn't look at me very much-she wanted to give her niece's niece and granddaughter to you as a wife back then-one day the fourth grandmother said that the Tao family claimed to dominate the northwest, but in fact, it was just famous, and the Fu family was just sweeping the brick cracks, and it was enough for the Tao family...... It's the first time I've heard someone speak in such a big tone. Er'an smiled.

"You remember that. The fourth grandmother just said it casually. Fu Lianzhi smiled.

Er'an said: "I wanted to give it back to her as it was. But it's only been a few days since I entered the door, and I can't bear it. After many years, I could touch the Fu family's account book, and I realized that the reason why the fourth grandmother was so angry was that I still had a little bottom in my heart. The Fu family is wealthy. ”

Fu Lianzhi looked at her with a smile and said, "I guess, you want to sweep the brick cracks of the Fu family now, right?" ”

"Let Lao Qi sweep the Tao family first. or sell his daughter-in-law's dowry first to resist for a while...... Anyway, it was her brothers who caused it, what else could she say that she couldn't say? As for the Fu family, let's sweep and keep it for ourselves, and count the money to play when we are old. Er'an also smiled. The couple joked with each other and walked away......

After the couple left, Tao Xiang and Jingyi came back and went into the study.

“…… A friend of Father Joseph was sending a batch of donations. It is said to be medicine and food, and possibly some clothing. Nothing else, the drug embargo has always been strictly ......" Jingyi said slowly, "Joseph has approached Dunhuang, and this matter is not within his authority—now that it is specially approved, you have to speak to make it work?" ”

Tao Xiang listened, and Jingyi seemed to be talking to herself.

"At this time." As he spoke, his eyes fixed on her.

"I went out today and saw the joint operation, which is really scary." Jingyi said.

She carefully opened the gift from Er'an. She was given a tiny beaded brooch. Diamonds the size of a grain of rice are embellished with pearls and have soft curves. Holding the brooch in his hand, he raised his eyes to look at Tao Xiang, only to find that he was looking at himself...... I don't know how long he'd been staring at it like this, but his gaze made her heart chuckle.

"Do you want to give your eldest sister something?" She asked softly. Tao Xiang probably won't think about these little things. It can be seen that Er An has never been very satisfied with her, and for Tao Xiang's sake, she is still very polite and even lovely. "I still think that the eldest sister likes to take pictures, and the second cousin just gave me a Wheela, so why don't you transfer it to the eldest sister...... Pastik? ”

Tao Xiang stretched out his hand and pulled Jingyi to sit beside him.

"Look at it. The eldest sister of the camera saved all day, and I didn't see her take a few photos. He said.

"Then I'll think again." Jingyi said. She wanted to open the gift that Er An gave Tao Xiang, but Tao Xiang pulled her and didn't let her move. She had no choice but to give up.

"How's the car going?" Tao Xiang asked.

"So-so." Jingyi listened to him and looked at him, "But Uncle Zhang said that I can go out alone." I'm driving myself when I go out today. ”

Tao Xiang smiled and asked, "Where have they gone?" ”

"Yongping Street. Go get Madame Stone's clothes. I also bought something for Qiu Wei. Jingyi said. As he let go to get the cigarette, she pumped her hand back and rubbed it.

"Where else have you gone?" Tao Xiang lit a cigarette and tilted his head to look at her.

"I ran by the Yellow River. It's a pleasure to drive. Jing Yi smiled and said to Tao Xiang. She picked up the wet hand towel on the coffee table and folded it.

Tao Xiang looked at her, folded the handkerchief in half, and folded it again...... It's boxy, but it's open.

He picked the towel with one finger and tossed it aside. Jing Yi was stunned, and he turned his face to kiss her on the lips. Jing Yi was unprepared for a while, stunned, and was pressed into the corner of the sofa by Tao Xiang...... His fingers nimbly unbuttoned under her chin, and as soon as the neckline opened, he kissed and moved down...... But it wasn't too much, only twisted the two horizontal buttons side by side, kissed her neck, and sucked gently.

Jing Yi tugged at his sleeves, and was in a panic in his heart, and opened his eyes to look at the colorful crystal lamps above his head...... Tao Xiang stopped, lifted her face, and looked at her.

She was even more confused by his eyes, frowned slightly, and said coquettishly: "Why do you look at me like this?" ”

The corners of Tao Xiang's mouth tugged, the big hand holding her slender waist turned, ironed her clothes, and said in a low voice: "I don't seem to have taken a good look at you for a long time." ”

"You're too busy." Jingyi sniffed.

Tao Xiang talked to her like this, and she was a little sad. In a moment, she raised her hand and hooked his neck, making him sink closer to her own and kissing him on the lips...... The kiss tended to intensify, and she gradually felt her cheeks burn hot, but Tao Xiang left her lips. She opened her eyes and looked at him.

Tao Xiang patted her cheek and said in a low voice, "Go up and rest, I still have something to do." ”

Jingyi looked at him and nodded. There was not a single complaint.

"Sometimes I think, if only you weren't so sensible." He seemed to be joking.

He took her hand, fingertips running over the ring on her ring finger.

"If you didn't have this, would you still be willing to stay with me?" He asked.
