Chapter 0297: Red Candle

In the Garden of the Four Monarchs.

Most of the maids and servants withdrew from the garden after receiving the money.

In the garden, only the eldest maid of Kou Mansion and the personal maid who married Xiang Yan were left guarding the door.

After Liu Heng, Cao Tong and others helped Kou Ji to the door of the room, they handed over Kou Ji, who was a little drunk, to the two maids.

After the maids took Kou Ji, they helped Kou Ji into the door.

Liu Heng, Cao Tong and others did not leave, but stepped forward and hid on both sides of the door, quietly eavesdropping on the movements in the room.

The maids helped Kou Ji into the door.

Kou Ji declined and continued to support them, slowly straightening up.

He was just slightly drunk, not really drunk.

The reason why he pretended to be drunk was also to prevent someone from climbing on him and continuing to pour him wine.

in the room.

Xiang Yan sat on the edge of the bed, and Xiang Yan's nurse stood beside her with a smile, holding a scale rod in her hand.

Kou Ji paced to the side of the bed, and after bowing to the courtesy, the nurse handed the weighing rod in her hand to Kou Ji.

Kou Ji picked up the scale pole and slowly lifted the hijab on Xiang Yan's head.

The hijab was removed, revealing a pink, red, and cute face.

Kou Ji's heart fluttered, and he called softly, "Lady......"

Xiang Yan lowered her head shyly and replied in a low voice, "Official......"

The nurse held two glasses of wine, and when she came to the two, she laughed in a low voice: "Uncle, girl, it's time to drink the wine......

Xiang Yan shyly picked up a cup, and Kou Ji also took a cup.

"Lady, please ......"

"Official, please ......"

The two of them raised their glasses and drank them all.

The nurse happily took the empty cup and placed it on the table.

"Ahem......"

The nurse walked quickly to the door of the room, which had been closed by the maids, and coughed twice.

Liu Heng, Cao Tong and others, who were guarding outside the door, rushed in.

They rushed through the door screaming and began to make a fuss in the cave.

It took less than a quarter of an hour.

Zhao Zhen happily entered the room accompanied by Chen Lin.

After he came in, the cave room was not very lively, but began to develop in a bit of a ritualistic direction.

But he stayed and didn't leave, and there was nothing anyone else could do.

It was a good hour.

Zhao Zhen, Liu Heng, Cao Tong and others withdrew from the room.

But the nurse, Xiang Yan's personal maid, and the big maid of Koufu, did not leave.

Kou Ji looked at the three of them, a little dumbfounded.

"You're not going to step down?"

The nurse covered her mouth and smiled like a chicken thief: "If the old body retreats, who will guide you to the cave room?" ”

Kou Ji was a little confused.

The nurse smiled and said, "If the girl can't bear it, Chun'er has to take it for the girl." The girl in your house was sent by your grandfather to verify her identity. ”

Kou Ji originally thought that the cave house was a matter of two people.

It wasn't until this moment that he knew that the cave house was most likely a matter of five people.

A white cloth was spread on the bed, and the matter of verifying the virgin body did not exist at all, and a living person was sent to watch it.

For a spring palace painting, there is no such thing as letting the husband and wife learn on their own on the bed, and they are sending a living person to guide them.

Not only that, considering that the groom is a virgin, the bride may be a little unbearable, and a substitute was also dispatched.

Seeing Kou Ji's blank face, the nurse laughed in a low voice: "Uncle, it's time to wear a wide coat......"

Xiang Yan leaned towards Kou Ji a little shyly.

Kou Ji slowly came back to his senses, and said dryly to the nurse and the others: "You guys retreat first......"

The smile on the nurse's face was a little stiff, and the expressions on the faces of the two maids were also a little unnatural.

Each of them has an important mission to play.

If it was because of their mistakes that Kou Ji and Xiang Yan's cave room was not completed perfectly, they would be scolded.

"Uncle, this is not in accordance with the rules......"

The nurse said embarrassedly.

Kou Ji said with a dark face: "What's not in line." Let you go out, and ye will go out. ”

Seeing Kou Ji's tough attitude, the nurse asked Xiang Yan for help with a bitter face, "Girl......"

Xiang Yan said to Kou Ji shyly: "Why don't you ...... Let the nurse stay ......"

Kou Ji's face was even darker, "no one left ......"

Seeing that Kou Ji's attitude was still tough, the nurse bowed down and said, "The old man is waiting outside the door with them, and if my uncle has any orders, just pass them on." ”

The nurse didn't dare to embarrass Kou Ji, and led the two maids out of the room.

As soon as I left the room, I saw three old men, swaying by the window.

After a closer look, the three of them hurriedly gave a salute.

"Master, Prince, Duke Li......"

Kou Zhun, Wang Zeng, and Li Di did not have the slightest shame of eavesdropping on being caught.

Instead, Kou Zhun nodded indifferently and said, "Let's listen to ......."

“……”

The three nurses nodded hurriedly.

In the room.

Kou Ji and Xiang Yan breathed a sigh of relief after seeing the three nurses leave.

However, before the smiles on the faces of the two of them bloomed, they heard the voice of the nurse outside the door calling out to Kou Zhun and the three of them.

Moment.

The smile on the faces of the two froze on their faces.

Xiang Yan leaned on Kou Ji's arms and asked shyly, "What should I do?" ”

Kou Ji's face was cloudy, and after groaning for a long time, he pecked Xiang Yan violently, lifted the quilt, and said in a low voice: "Regardless of them, let's cover the quilt and take our time......"

“……”

“……”

“……”

Following.

Early morning.

Kou Ji sat up slowly, his arms covered with pinch marks and bite marks.

Xiang Yan wrapped herself tightly in the quilt and hid in the quilt.

Kou Ji touched his arm with pity and said in a low voice, "You are too ruthless......"

Xiang Yan hid in the quilt and said in a small voice like a mosquito: "People are too painful...... You can't call it ......."

Kou Ji opened his mouth, ready to speak.

The nurse and the two maids, at this time, broke into the door with their washing things.

"Uncle, girl, it's time to wash up......"

"The master is still waiting for you to serve tea......"

“……”

Kou Ji got up and washed up.

Xiang Yan also washed up under the service of the two maids.

After getting dressed.

Kou Ji helped Xiang Yan to the main hall of Kou Mansion.

Kou Zhun sat on the seat.

Kou Ji led Xiang Yan to kneel down in front of Kou Zhun, and both of them offered a cup of tea to Kou Zhun, Kou Zhun smiled and tasted it, took two small boxes, and handed them to the two of them.

In one box is the title deed and house deed of Koufu, and in one box is the title deed and house deed of the shop under the name of Koufu.

Kou Zhun instructed Kou Ji: "Ji'er, you are already married, and you will be an adult in the future." The old man will treat you as an adult in the future, and will no longer treat you as a child.

Everything in Koufu, the old man will hand it over to you.

The old man will not ask much in the future.

Don't just destroy the Kou Mansion before the old man dies. ”

Kou Ji smiled and said, "Grandfather, don't worry, my grandson will definitely not lose the family property of Kou Mansion." ”

Kou Zhun nodded and said to Xiang Yan: "Yan'er, you are a well-informed woman, Ji'er is busy with government affairs on weekdays, and she doesn't have much time to manage family affairs.

You are the only hostess in the family, so you have to help Ji'er manage the housework. ”

Xiang Yan nodded slowly and said, "Daughter-in-law Sun understands." ”

Kou Zhun nodded with satisfaction, "The affairs of the house will be left to you." The old man went to the palace. ”

Leaving everything in Kou's mansion, Kou Zhun entered the palace freely.

There are only two masters left in the Kou Mansion, Kou Ji and Xiang Yan, as well as a large group of servants.

The two lingered on the house like glue for three days.

Three days later.

Xiang Yan returned to the door, and Kou Ji accompanied Xiang Yan to Xiangfu.

The people in the mansion were very enthusiastic, but they guarded the property and other things in the mansion strictly, as if they were afraid of asking Yan for it.

In this regard, Xiang Minzhong sighed vigorously.

He felt that the house was full of mallets.

If it weren't for his own birth, he would have been able to pull out this group of mallets and bury them all.

He kept giving money to Koji, for what?

It's not for this group of mallets.

Is Kou Ji short of money?

Kou Ji is clearly not short of money.

Then why did he give Kou Ji a hard stuffing of money?

In order to further bring the relationship between Kou Ji and Xiang Fu closer.

As long as the relationship between the two families is close enough, even if Xiang Fu is contaminated with the disaster of annihilation, Kou Ji will also help one or two.

Not only that, but if Kou Ji is in the future when he is in the picture, he will also bring the juniors of the Xiangfu with him.

It's a pity that few people in the Xiang Mansion can understand his hard work.

They always think that if they marry Koufu, they are already tied to Koufu.

But they don't know that the relationship between in-laws can only be relied upon if they have common interests.

Once there is no common interest, people don't care if you live or die?

There are many martial artists who marry each other in Bianjing City.

But after the outbreak of the erysipelas case before, how many martial artists helped those martial artists who were contaminated with the erysipelas case to speak?

Not a single one.

Not only did no one speak for them, but many people decisively broke off the father-daughter relationship to protect themselves.

What Xiang Minzhong's sons didn't see clearly, Kou Ji saw clearly.

In Xiang Yan's boudoir, he rejected the deed and title deed of Xiang Mansion handed over to Xiang Minzhong, just so as not to be involved in too many interests with Xiang Fu.

"Ji'er, you're much smarter than those stupid things that the old man gave birth to......"

This is what Kou Ji said when he left Xiangfu with Xiang Yan, Xiang Minzhong took Kou Ji's hand.

Kou Ji shook Xiang Minzhong's hand and said with a smile: "Grandfather-in-law, you are laughing......

Xiang Minzhong shook his head gloomily and said, "The old man didn't laugh, what the old man said was the truth." ”

After a pause, Xiang Minzhong held Kou Ji's hand tightly and said, "The old man only hopes that when Xiang Fu encounters great difficulties one day, you can help one or two." ”

Kou Ji nodded and said, "For your sake, I will definitely help you." Never let the incense of Xiangfu be cut off. ”

Xiang Minzhong nodded solemnly.

Xiang Minzhong sent Kou Ji all the way to the gate of the mansion, and said: "In two days, the old man will play together and ask for the bones of beggars." If the old man expects it to be good, the official family will definitely play it.

After all, with the old man's current body, there is no way to stay in the court anymore.

If you stay any longer, you will only be impeached, saying that the old man is greedy for power.

The old man will nominate a person to serve as the governor, who do you think is suitable? ”

Kou Ji groaned for a moment and said, "Li Di ......"

Xiang Minzhong nodded and said, "The old man understands." ”

Kou Ji arched his hand and left Xiang Mansion with Xiang Yan.

On the way home, the two rode together in a sedan chair.

In the sedan chair, Xiang Yan said with some sadness: "The concubine never thought that after getting married, my father and mother would treat the concubine like this......"

Kou Ji hugged her and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?" ”

Xiang Yan said mournfully: "The concubine is in a hurry to get married, and I didn't bring many of my favorite jewelry when I went out. When I went home today, I wanted to take it away, but my mother wouldn't let me. ”

Kou Ji smiled indifferently: "It's out of the way...... We don't lack those. ”

"But ......"

"What is a must be. Later, when I went to court, the money in the house was taken care of. This year, my Kou Mansion has a lot of income, so you can count it with Kou Zhong when you go back. When you've finished counting the belongings in the house, it's not too late to tell me this. ”

“……”

Xiang Yan hesitated for a moment and asked, "There is a lot of money in the house?" ”

Kou Jishen said mysteriously: "You'll know after you click on it." ”

Xiang Yan groaned: "After the concubine returns home, I will count it and see what you are selling to the concubine." ”

Kou Ji nodded slowly, "That's just right, I just happen to be busy with something." ”

After returning to the house.

Xiang Yan called Kou Zhong, called the account office of Kou Mansion, and went to count the property of Kou Mansion together.

Kou Ji went to the courtyard where the craftsmen were.

The broken matter of Jiaozipu in Shuzhong, the Mu family has already handled it properly.

Now the owner of the Jiaozi shop in Shuzhong is only the Mu family, the Meng family, and the Qian family, three families.

plus the Kou family, there are four in total.

The Mu family, the Meng family, and the Qian family each hold two components.

The remaining forty percent were handed over to Kou Ji.

In addition to the one that Kou Ji possessed, the remaining three components were also pulled out of the mouths of the three of them by Kou Ji.

The three have quite a few complaints about this.

Kou Ji told them that these thirty percent of the people were to be given away.

And they said no more.

The broken matter of Shuzhong Jiaozipu has been dealt with, and Kou Ji naturally has to help Shuzhong Jiaozipu get back on track.

The original Shuzhong Jiaozi shop, its reputation has been rotten.

Kou Ji proposed to set up a new Jiaozi shop, which would always be laid in Bianjing City.

The Jiaozi shop in Shu and the Jiaozi shop in Jiangning Mansion are retained.

However, before the newly established Jiaozipu opened, Kou Ji had to help Jiaozipu make a set of Jiaozi printing templates that others could not imitate.

Jiaozi printing template, but the key to Jiaozi anti-counterfeiting, a slight mistake, may cause a lot of losses to Jiaozi shop.

So Koji had to design a well-designed template.

Kou Ji entered the courtyard where the craftsmen in the house were, and the craftsmen in the house all pounced.

Don't wait for Koji to speak.

A craftsman spoke first: "Little master, there is something wrong with this set of harness you built before. The people from Baozhou sent someone back to spread the word, saying that the horses could not support such heavy harnesses. ”

"Baozhou has already started forging horse harnesses? The armor of the soldiers is ready? ”

"That's not ......"

"The armor of the soldiers is not complete, what kind of harness do you make?"

“……”

The craftsmen were reprimanded by Kou Ji and didn't know what to say.

Knowing that it wasn't their fault, Koji didn't embarrass them anymore, and he said to the craftsmen, "What's the problem? Are there any drawings for me to see? ”
