Volume 1 The Wind Rises in Tianjing Chapter 89 The Steward or the Helmsman

"Let's talk about it, what did Jin Guo promise him, he wants to betray me." Yuhuzi's face sank like water.

"I drew him a big pie, saying that I would go south in the future, and give him your place to sit."

"He believed such an obvious lie."

Judging by what he was doing now, he did believe it, and he felt that he really had that day. Maybe he's cursing you to death day and night, so do it quickly. Qingzhi said, laughing, "I never doubted him. ”

"Me too." Yuhuzi said, got up, there were a few delicate pastries on the small wooden table in front of him, he picked and chosen, took a piece of mung bean cake, and took another piece and handed it to Qingzhi who was sitting aside, and said: "He has been with me for many years, you just said so, I still don't want to believe it." ”

Qingzhi put the teacup in his hand aside, took the mung bean cake, opened his red lips lightly, bit a small piece in his mouth, glanced at Yuhuzi with slanted eyes, and said, "Do you want to tell Jiang Huo?" ”

Yuhuzi's figure was stunned, he understood that what Qingzhi said was not that he was afraid that Jiang Huo would know about his father, but that he was afraid that Jiang Huo would have something to do with what his father did, Jiang Huo was a person close to Yuhuzi, and it was too easy to find an opportunity to be unfavorable to Yuhuzi.

"He doesn't know." Yuhuzi said intuitively: "He has stayed in the barracks for the past few days and has not left, I want to hand over the Qingbei Army to him." ”

"Let's take a look first, you can't have a heart to defend against people. If you don't believe what I said, you can also observe Jiang Nanfeng's next move of the old thief, although he has a lot of soldiers and horses, but compared to the ones in your hands, the quality is much worse. If he really does it, maybe he can help you get rid of Guo Yi. ”

Since it was said of Guo Yi, Yuhuzi simply asked again: "Then what has Guo Yi been doing recently, he doesn't pay attention to the rules, and even I, the general of Zhenbei, don't come to pay respects?" ”

"The person came out of Xu De's hands, there must be something wrong when he came to see you, you better expect him to never step into Yan Zhucheng."

Yuhuzi finished eating a piece of mung bean cake, saw that it tasted good, took another piece, sat back in his place, and asked while eating: "Have you sorted out this year's accounts over there, seeing that it is winter, the military will be used again." ”

"You don't have to worry about the military use, don't you worry about me?" Saying that, Qingzhi smiled playfully, and then said: "It's just that this account is still being sorted out, there are too many catalogs, and the speed of more than a dozen old shopkeepers is still not fast enough. Their two hundred cannons and a thousand muskets were staggeringly depleted. ”

"With that money, you can pull a good cavalry team." Yuhuzi has always scoffed at the firearms brought by those foreigners, thinking that they are just children's toys. This idea has been passed down from generation to generation for their royal family, from the earliest Yuyong to the current Yuhuzi, and the three generations of grandparents and grandchildren have believed that the power of steel is better than those flashy fires.

Hearing Yuhuzi's contemptuous voice, Qingzhi said: "The power of foreigners' firearms is actually good, I can bring some to show you next time." ”

How do you know that when Yuhuzi heard this, he waved his hand again and again, and said with a smile: "You, you, now you are still doing business to your own family." Yuhuzi was not hungry, but after eating two pieces of mung bean cake, he stimulated some appetite and ordered his subordinates to prepare a table of wine and food.

Yuhuzi got up, looked at Qingzhi, and said, "Let's go, eat something, and drink two drinks with me." You're so busy these days, and you have to help me check things up. ”

Qingzhi did not refuse, got up and said: "I am first the butler of the General's Mansion, and then the helmsman of the Jinli Commercial Bank. ”

Yuhuzi looked at Qingzhi's delicate face, smiled, pushed open the door, and took Qingzhi to the dining room. Along the way, Qingzhi began to act like a housekeeper, telling Yuhuzi about the recent expenses and personnel changes in the house one by one. Yuhuzi doesn't believe in everyone in the world, or rather, doesn't fully believe in everyone in the world. Because it is difficult to gain his trust, it is difficult for Yuhuzi to accept that Jiang Nanfeng will betray him. But Qingzhi is different, this is his biggest reliance in life, she is his military advisor, his staff, and his general. Except that it's not his wife, Qingzhi is everything to him. At this moment, listening to Qingzhi almost nagging about how expensive the silver silk charcoal burned by the earth dragon, he felt an unreal satisfaction.

And the cloak of red gold silk pinched flowers wrapped in green branches, someone had already calculated the time and put it on the carriage. Speaking of which, there is now only one female butler left in this general, and there is no helmsman of Jinli Commercial Bank.

The dining room of the General's Mansion is not very luxuriously decorated, and Yuhuzi has no requirements for these foreign things, and there is only one thing to say, that is, comfort. This dining room is large and clean, and it is a place to sit and eat, but not to sit and sing about the wine and the geometry of life.

Outside the dining room, there are maids carrying hot water, waiting for Yuhuzi and Qingzhi to wash their hands. After washing their hands, they entered the dining room and sat down at the white marble table, the dishes were ready, quite simple, all home-cooked food from the Northland, and the wine was still warm on the stove. There is no one in this dining room, and when you drink, you need to take it down and pour your own wine, and take a sip, whether it is the host or the guest, it is warm and comfortable.

Yuhuzi poured wine for Qingzhi, but Qingzhi picked up the chopsticks and tasted a little bit of each dish. Her movements are elegant, simple, and stylish. Mitoko filled her glass and poured herself a full glass. He sat down and saw Qingzhi's amorous faux pas, but he smiled bitterly and said, "Don't worry, someone has tasted it, no problem." ”

Qingzhi put down the chopsticks in his hand and said, "I'm used to it, besides, I'm just hungry and want to taste it first." ”

"Eat more when you're hungry, both of us, I won't laugh at you." As he spoke, Yuhuzi took a piece of lamb chop with his hand and handed it to Qingzhi.

Yuhuzi likes spicy food, so the food in the house is adapted to his taste, the seasoning is very heavy, and the green branch has not been picked up, and he can smell the spicy taste of the lamb chops, but he takes it hard.

Yuhuzi took another piece for himself, and when he bit into it, he only felt that the umami and spices of the mutton spread in his mouth, rushing to almost every corner of his body. Yuhuzi ate the mutton on that piece in a few bites, took another piece, and when he was about to eat, he saw that the mutton chops in Qingzhi's hand barely moved, and he smiled: "You just don't believe me, eat these things to ensure that you don't get sick, look at you, how thin you have become." With that, take a bite of the lamb chop in your hand.

Looking at Yuhuzi's eating appearance, Qingzhi frowned. Looking at the shiny appearance of the lamb chops in his hand, he finally put them on the plate in front of him, and said with a smile: "I can't eat this thing, it's too greasy." You too, how can any woman think that she is thin. ”

Yuhuzi looked at Qingzhi's face and said, "You are just strange, sooner or later you will be blown away by the wind." As he spoke, he picked up his wine glass, stretched out to Qingzhi, and said, "Let's go, thank you for being busy these days." ”

Qingzhi picked up the wine glass with both hands, knocked lightly with Yuhuzi's wine glass, and said, "I'm still a general's person." With that, she raised her head and drank the wine from her glass, her slender neck as beautiful as a swan.

It's a pity that Yuhuzi is addicted to lamb chops and can't extricate himself, and he doesn't care about these so-called beauties at all.
