The laws of the Great Xia Dynasty strictly forbade officials to do business, and even the wives and concubines of the official family and other immediate family members were not allowed to deal with business matters.

Who doesn't know now that Zhao Xiaoxi is the shopkeeper of the hope card? Who doesn't know how big the business of Hope is doing? As Zhao Xiaoxi's husband, Xiao Jingrui's every move has also attracted the attention of the big guys.

If you are a businessman and an official, isn't this going to be poked in the backbone by the big guys? Now that Xiao Jingrui has made up his mind to do a good job, doesn't he have to think about entering the court as an official?

However, the court has given permission again, if she disobeys, it may be another turmoil. Zhao Xiaoxi is a real person, and asked on the spot, "My family official is a solid person, since he has decided to do a good job, he will definitely not think about doing anything else." After that, if my family officials don't go, will it become disrespectful to the decree? ”

Who still doesn't want to be an official? The eldest lady of the Lejia family was stunned when she heard this, and she squeaked for a long time, "No, Zhao Xiaoniang is a hero, if her own husband is unwilling to be an official, no one will be reluctant." It's just that this opportunity is rare, it can be regarded as the grace of the favor, Zhao Xiaoniang, you ......"

"I'll go back and discuss it with my father-in-law." Zhao Xiaoxi was slightly embarrassed, and always felt that he was a typical shameless.

There was no longer any longer delay in the Prime Minister's Mansion, she hurried and quickly arrived at the restaurant.

The business of the restaurant has been very busy in the past two days, and Xiao Jingrui is in the restaurant if nothing else. Sure enough, he's still here, and he doesn't know what's going on, he's talking to his guys.

Looking at the past from Zhao Xiaoxi's perspective, I feel more and more that Xiao Jingrui is a handsome man with a dragon posture and a phoenix and a jade tree. Once you enter the Jinluan Palace, life and death are in the hands of others, isn't it very aggrieved? However, such a good thing as the purple ribbon gold medal, how many of them are not uncommon for ordinary men? Zhao Xiaoxi was not easy to call the shots for Xiao Jingrui, sighed, and walked into the restaurant.

Seeing Zhao Xiaoxi coming, the big guys all said hello respectfully. Xiao Jingrui habitually took her little hand and went up to the private room on the second floor.

"Why is the lady here at this hour?" He was suspicious in his heart, and poured Zhao Xiaoxi a cup of warm fruit wine by the way, "Something happened in the house?" ”

"Nope." Zhao Xiaoxi shook his head stiffly, his face changed suddenly, "Xianggong, the emperor gave him permission and said that we have made meritorious contributions to disaster relief and let you enter the court as an official." ”

"The lady already knew, and now I'm focused on the business of our hope cards, and I have no idea about officialdom." Xiao Jingrui's eyes were burning, and it didn't seem like he was telling a lie.

It seems that this man is holding the intention of breaking out of the business sea to work so hard in the hope brand.

But this opportunity is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, where can ordinary people have such luck? Zhao Xiaoxi felt a little sorry for his father-in-law, "Why don't we try to be an official?" If you don't like it, we won't do it in the future, and it's the same. ”

At this moment, Zhao Xiaoxi's understanding of officialdom is still too shallow, and he really thinks that he is adhering to the principle of mutual willingness and signing equality terms. As long as one party is no longer willing, they can withdraw at any time.

"Who did the lady listen to about this? Father? ”

"No, it's Sangkook." Zhao Xiaoxi touched his little face and sneered, "It's really a good thing, they sent someone over early in the morning to let me go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to discuss, and I can't make decisions for you, so I have to come to discuss with you." ”

"Don't think about it, I just want to do business with my wife." Xiao Jingrui looked at Zhao Xiaoxi with a determined face, and seemed to be smiling, "Lady doesn't think that your father-in-law is a rebel?" ”

"No, no, no." Zhao Xiaoxi waved his hand and hurriedly shook his head, "I didn't mean that, I just felt that the men and women all wanted to seal the wolf Juxu, and how many of them wanted to do business or something?" You are the concubine of the Hou Mansion again, and you follow me to do business, it seems that you are a little unproductive, right? ”

"Lady, the situation is changing now, and businessmen are not inferior." He stretched out his hand and wiped the stains on the corners of Zhao Xiaoxi's mouth, and his smile grew, "We hope that the card will develop so well now, why do you want to run to the court to get angry?" ”

That being said, there are very few people who can really be so open-minded. Zhao Xiaoxi has already brought the words, as for the rest of the matter, if Xiao Jingrui is unwilling, she has no way.

At this time, there was news from the other end of Fengle Town, only that it was KTV that was smashed, and as for who it was, it has not been found out.

In the end, Zhao Xiaoxi couldn't rest assured, and hurriedly went back with Xiao Jingrui.

The piece of land used as a KTV is not big, but it is more than enough to accommodate more than 100 people to listen to music and watch dramas. In addition, the decoration and style inside are first-class, so there are many people who come to hang out every day.

Tickets are very cheap in the end, and the big guys are basically hoping that the cards will work, with one more income, and the consumption level will increase, so they naturally don't feel sorry for these two small money.

But now that the KTV has been smashed, everything in it has been swept away, and it is a mess, where are there any guests coming to the door? The only thing to be thankful for is that Liu Er has nothing to do with the girls and young masters who live inside, but she was a little frightened.

After Zhao Xiaoxi and the others came back, Liu Er and the others still had palpitations when they talked about this stubble.

"I don't know which one is so lacking in morality, seeing that our KTV business is good, it will harm people like this!" Liu Er was very angry, she is now the second shopkeeper of the hope card, and she is responsible for everything, facing Zhao Xiaoxi at this time, the boss is embarrassed, "I also blamed me for not being good that night, but I just wanted to pull the big guy to drink together, if I heard the movement, it would not make them so arrogant." ”

Seeing Liu Er feel so guilty, Zhao Xiaoxi shook his head and sighed, "You can't be blamed for this, it must have been planned for a long time to destroy our KTV like this." Even if you don't do it on the day you eat, you will definitely do it later. ”

"Who is so enmity with us?" Actor A looked angry, especially when he thought that a play they had rehearsed had come to an end and would soon be performed on stage, he was even more unhappy.

Now that there is such a fuss, why can't it be pushed back? It's sad to think about. One minute on stage, ten years of work off stage, rehearsal for so long, just waiting for the day of the performance, and someone smashed the performance stage, so what a fart do they play?

Listening to the big guy, you and I said one by one, Zhao Xiaoxi heard a little clue, and said busily, "Is there anything rare recently?" ”

"Rare? There are those who say yes, and there are no who say no. Liu Er stepped forward and took Zhao Xiaoxi's hand, "A few days ago, there was a rich fourth master who fell in love with Xiao Yao. That day, he had to take Xiao Yao back with him, just saying that he wanted to ask her to be Aunt Jiu's grandmother. But our Xiaoyao is only fifteen years old, and the fourth master can be her grandfather at the age of the fourth master. A few of us had no choice but to find Yuan Daguan, and then drove them away. ”

Fourth Master? Which fourth master? Zhao Xiaoxi didn't know much about the rich squires in ten miles and eight towns, but when he listened to it, he vaguely felt that something unusual was here.

There are eight or nine squires with aunts and grandmothers, which should be quite famous, right?

"What is the real name of the fourth master?" Zhao Xiaoxi sat on the side, looking at the damaged performance stage, his face was not very good, "We hope that the relationship between the card and the big guys is very good, I have said it before, we hope that the artists of the cards and the big guys have to be respectful." Why are there people like the fourth master, who come to us to beg for aunts and grandmothers? ”

"He is a squire of Ziyun County, surnamed Zhuang, called Zhuang Zili." Liu Er said the news she had found out during this time, and her face was extremely bad, "That Uncle Zhuang has a very strange temperament, and he has suffered hardships with his mother-in-law. ”

This should all be said by the people of Ziyun County, right? Zhao Xiaoxi can't be sure, this is not from the same county, and it is much more difficult to investigate certain things.

"He's been here with us recently?" Zhao Xiaoxi then asked, after all, you can't give up lightly if you have a clue, right? If it was really Zhuang Zili, she would not let him go.

"I also came to Fengle Town once, but I didn't come to our KTV, I ran to Chunxiangyuan." Liu Er's old face turned red, after all, she was also from a Qinglou.

Chunxiang-in? Zhao Xiaoxi really didn't hear that they had another Qinglou in Fengle Town! Seeing that Liu Er looked frightened, she didn't ask what the situation was in Chunxiangyuan, and said busily, "Can we find out which girl entertained Zhuang Zili that day?" ”

"It's Momo-so." Liu Er had already inquired about everything here, as if she was waiting for Zhao Xiaoxi to come back and ask, "Taoxiu is an honest girl, and she will say everything as soon as she asks." He also told me that Zhuang Zili had a very strange temper, and he tossed her so much that he almost saw her grandmother in the underworld. ”

"Did Taoxiu say what Zhuang Zili said that night?" Zhao Xiaoxi touched his chin, and always felt that the matter here was far from being as simple as he imagined. After all, no matter how rich and powerful a squire is, he wouldn't dare to offend the Hou Mansion, right? Isn't there someone behind his back?

"Net said bad things about the cards we wanted." Liu Er sighed, with a look of indignation, "We Xiaoyao are such a good girl, how can we not give it to an old squire who is almost sixty years old." ”

That night, Zhao Xiaoxi sent someone to investigate Zhuang Zili's details.

I thought I would be able to find out soon, but the news that Zhao Xiaoxi received the next day turned out to be blank. Except for knowing that he started in business, has land and land in Ziyun County, and has a few aunts and grandmothers, there is nothing else.

How so? It must be the forces behind Zhuang Zili who have blocked all the news and made them have nothing to check.
