Chapter 208: Promise (Ask for Subscription!) )
"In the end, the cloth number is not in a hurry in advance, I have asked the Qi family to help, and I have set up two dyeing workshops in Yangzhou Mansion, and Zhao Boan, the dyeing wizard of the Dongsheng Zhao family, will lead the work."
"Of course, the dyeing workshop can't stay on Jufeng Island, the dye urn is full of poison, stay there, it won't be long before Jufeng Island becomes a dead island, Jufeng Island, only dye is blended. The dyeing workshop is looking elsewhere......"
"The cloth number should be laid after the integration of the Feng brand is completed, and moreover, it will be borrowed from the collected embezzlement."
"At present, that's all, the livelihood of the ice room, Wanxiang Building, Shengshi Bookstore, Mr. Storyteller's Guangde Society, Sixi Team, Taiping Teahouse, Taiping Cloth ......"
"Although there are people everywhere taking care of it, the ice house and Wanxiang Building are directly in the hands of the Qi family, and we are only responsible for supervision. But we still have to put everything together, and it takes a lot of effort. I worship my second uncle as the treasurer of the Delin, and that's why I worship. ”
When Baoqin came back, he first saw his drunken cousin Xue Pan leaning on a chair and smirking when he entered the door, and his brother Xue Zhen sat quietly at the door of the inner room, with admiration on his face, listening to the conversation in the inner room, and when he saw her enter the door, he hurriedly signaled her to move lightly and not to alarm the inside.
Bao Qin was curious, and after walking over to listen for a while, she heard the conversation inside.
After listening to this paragraph, her beautiful eyes widened, but her brows frowned, she looked at Xue Zhen and whispered: "Brother, Brother Qiang wants to worship Daddy to be the big shopkeeper?" But Daddy's body is ...... bones."
Xue Zhen smiled and said softly: "The treasure medicine of Ning Temple is extremely symptomatic, and my father is already much better. Besides, the second brother said that I don't need my father to run around more, when the time comes, I will run more errands. ”
Baoqin still couldn't figure out how her brother would agree, she said curiously: "Brother, aren't we going to do our own business?" ”
Xue Zhen heard this, but he couldn't laugh faintly, he shook his head and said: "I shouldn't have told my sister about the outside thing, because I was afraid that you would be worried, and I was also worried that my mother would be bored if I found out...... But now, at this point, it can be said that the truth is true. After the uncle passed away, the Xue family was not as good as a year, and it would be good if the cousin was more competitive, but ...... Alas.
As for our family, my father was originally a concubine, and he went out early, and the remnants of the Xue family couldn't fall on our heads. This business is not as simple as buying and selling goods, and there will definitely be official matters involved behind it. If it doesn't matter, just those little ghosts who eat and take cards can toss business and send half a life.
Dad can get better when he is strong, and he can always maneuver around, but over the years, Dad can only recuperate at home for most of the time, and our own business is declining...... Not to mention our family, even the Feng number in my cousin's hand is not much better. ”
Baoqin is very smart, and after understanding, he hesitated: "Doesn't the Xue family have a lot of old relatives? ”
Xue Zhen smiled bitterly when he heard this, shook his head and said, "There are old relatives who are old and old, it is the uncle's room, not us." And even if it is an old relative, it needs to be the right person to go long-term. If one party becomes a poor relative and a poor friend, this road will not be long-term. But ......"
After a pause, Xue Zhen showed a smile on his face and whispered: "Now that my father has promised Second Brother Qiang, when he is the big treasurer of the Delin, the situation is different again." Although Second Brother Qiang is young, he is an extraordinary person. Not to mention it in Beijing, only in Jiangnan, not long after he came, he did so many powerful things. In Yangzhou Mansion and the Qi family, the Xu family intersected, the Chen family, the Li family, and the Peng family had related interests, and Lin Yushi, the Yamen of the Yanyuan, also valued him very much.
The road on the official face has been paved. Not to mention, the Jia family's foundation in Jiangnan is already very deep, and there is only one Zhen family, so there is no need to mention other places.
With these relationships, the Delin is naturally easy to do, and it is not much more tiring than my father. And the second brother is benevolent and righteous, and is willing to take Feng Zihao to do it with our family, which is to take care of our family. With this relationship, distant relatives who were estranged in the past soon returned. ”
It's a little hard to say, and it's a little poignant, but that's the reality.
Although Xue Zhen is only fifteen this year, in the past two years, he has been running back and forth several places, and he has seen more people in a warm and cold world than most people have seen in a lifetime.
At first, I felt sad, humiliated and hopeless, but later I gradually realized that this world is like this.
Now Jia Qiang needs the help of Xue Ming and the Xue family's Fengzihao, and by the way, she also takes them to succeed together, and is willing to share her connections and official resources with the Xue family, which is a win-win situation.
Therefore, Xue Zhen was very happy.
Baoqin didn't care much about these, as long as she knew that her family had turned the corner, she looked at Xue Pan, who had already begun to snore, and said with a smile: "When I was young, my uncle and father were most worried about whether my cousin could support Fengzihao, and I didn't want to ......."
Before she finished speaking, she suddenly saw Xue Zhen pointing to her mouth, signaling her to be quiet, and pointed inside.
Baoqin closed her voice and listened to the conversation inside, her face flushed.
I shouldn't have listened to it, but it involved lifelong events, so I still endured my shame and listened to it......
"Second uncle, do you have any thoughts about the Mei family? Most of the Mei family's eldest lady and all her relatives were released, and a set of second-entry courtyards was returned to them for residence. In addition, Mei Huai, the eldest son of the second room of the Mei family, will also be released, and the Yanyuan Yamen and the Liangjiang Governor's Mansion will repay him. When he is elected to high school, he will be promoted. ”
After roughly talking about the number of lines on several businesses, Jia Qiang was about to leave, but she remembered the Mei family, so she said to Xue Ming.
When Xue Ming heard this, his heart was miserable.
At the beginning, he married Mei Zhen, who had just entered Hanlin, and of course the Mei family had an unspeakable future in the future, but at that time, the Xue family was far from the point where the rivers were declining.
and Mei Zhen's family, it can be called a good match.
Mei Zhen Huangbang High School, the relationship with the Mei family's big house has eased a little, and he has also borrowed a lot of silver.
But in a place like the Hanlin Academy, it is an excellent place to worship the teacher diligently and ask for advice from the old-timers in the same year.
If you want to get out of the top early, you need to spend a sea of gold and silver.
If you can afford it, you can naturally come out early and rise step by step.
If you can't afford to spend it, you can watch the government in the Hanlin Academy, build up your qualifications, and look forward to the day when you will come out.
This day may be three or five years, ten or eight years, even more than twenty years, and it is not absent.
Mei Zhen needed too much silver in order to win a position, and the Jiangnan Mei family was still in charge of Mr. Fu Weng at that time, and he didn't like the face of the second room when he was competing for property, so it was impossible to supply too much.
Mei Zhen borrowed tens of thousands of taels of silver from Xue Ming......
Originally, it was said that Mei Zhen would pay it back when she went through the state capital, but in the past few years, the Xue family's momentum has not been as good as a year, and the Mei family has never mentioned the matter of repaying the money.
Xue Ming also admitted it, and only regarded it as the dowry for Baoqin to marry into the Mei family in the future.
I didn't expect it to come to this point.
Mei Zhen's face after tearing her face that day really shocked Xue Ming.
He couldn't figure out how an old friend who had been friends for decades could be such a face?
This is also a Hanlin who reads poetry and books?
At this point, not to mention that the Mei family has already planted a big heel, even if the Mei family still has an unlimited future, it is impossible for him to marry a daughter in the past.
's daughter is in such a family, and she is not bullied to death?
Thinking of this, Xue Ming shook his head and said: "Speaking of what happened that day, Brother Qiang, you are also present, what you saw with your own eyes, not in the eyes of my Xue family's forces, just ...... Alas, since this family business has been broken, then it will be broken. No matter how big an official the Mei family father and son can be in the future, my Xue family can't afford this family business. Otherwise, if Qin'er marries, she will be bullied. ”
Jia Qiang smiled and said, "Okay, if that's the case, I'll understand." You don't have to treat Mei Huai as a relative......"
Xue Ming smiled bitterly when he heard this, and said: "Although the matter has come to this point, I also ask Brother Qiang to tell the Mei family father and son on his behalf, and the tens of thousands of taels of silver borrowed by the Mei family do not have to be returned, so the Mei family father and son ...... also asked Brother Qiang to try to get them out of Yangzhou Mansion alive, so as not to have an accidental fire and die, and end up in the water. ”
When Jia Qiang heard this, she somewhat understood why Xue Ming didn't attack the Feng brand after Xue Li's death for so many years.
This is indeed a rare kind person.
It's just that he doesn't understand the truth that if you don't die if you fight a snake, you will end up with trouble?
What's more, the person that the Mei family's father and son hate the most is not the Xue family, but him Jia Qiang.
However, on the surface, Jia Qiang still agreed to Xue Ming......
……
Coming out of the guest house, go back to the small study.
When I opened the door, I saw Daiyu sitting in front of the bookcase, drawing in circles with a pen, obviously correcting the practice he had done before.
Hearing the sound of movement at the door, Daiyu looked sideways, and when she saw Jia Qiang entering the door, she said with a deep meaning: "I didn't expect that now you are so busy, and you still have the time to make a fuss...... Sister Baoqin went back? ”
Jia Qiang laughed in her heart when she heard this, but said solemnly on her face: "I went back, but I didn't see it, she was serving her mother." As for busy...... My aunt doesn't know, but now in the eyes of others, although I am amazingly talented, handsome, turning my hands into clouds, covering my hands for rain, resourceful, rare talents, and ...... every day."
"Poof!"
Daiyu couldn't hold it back, and said with a smile: "I found out that you are getting more and more cheeky!" ”
Jia Qiang shook her head and said: "In short, although it seems to outsiders that I am very busy, I know in my heart that most of those busyness and majesty are empty, and my foothold is fundamental, and I have to rely on myself to get a reputation first." Therefore, I dare not slack off for a day. Of course, with a famous teacher like Aunt Lin here, I am very confident. ”
Seeing his sincerity, Daiyu nodded with satisfaction and praised: "You can have this heart, why worry about not being famous?" But just after praising it, suddenly the ground changed, and he looked at Jia Qiang with unkind eyes and said, "You coax me again!" ”
Jia Qiang was "stunned" and said: "Where is there a coaxing word? ”
Daiyu gritted her teeth and said: "You always use some nice words to coax me, obviously treating me as an eleven or twelve-year-old child!" ”
Jia Qiang said with a strange expression: "How is this possible? Auntie, you're thirteen years old this year, not eleven or twelve! ”
"I you, and I knew you were going to orchestrate me again! I won't spare you today! ”
Daiyu blushed with shame when she heard this, got up and put down her pen, and came to arrest Jia Qiang.
Jia Qiang laughed and dodged, but after running for a while, she saw that Daiyu was sweating on her forehead and panting, so she deliberately missed and was captured, and after raising her hand and beating her twice, Daiyu looked at Jia Qiang and "threatened": "Do you dare to coax me?" ”
Jia Qiang shook her head again and again: "Don't dare, don't dare anymore!" Actually, I didn't mean to coax you, I just wanted to see you smile more. Somehow, seeing Aunt Lin smiling more, I felt very comfortable in my heart, and even if the fatigue of the day could be dissipated, most of it could be dissipated. ”
When Daiyu heard this, her pretty face turned red in an instant, and she couldn't even raise her head, so she only said softly: "You...... Don't say anything like that again, or I'll tell Daddy to go." After a pause, he said: "I have not been at peace in my heart for the past two days, so you should be careful when you are outside." ”
Jia Qiang smiled warmly: "After finishing tomorrow, I will stay at home and go out after the New Year." ”
After saying "um", Daiyu slowly raised her eyes, glanced at Jia Qiang, and turned to leave......
