Chapter 162: Don't embarrass her

"I've seen Miss Four." Wen Qingzhu quickly entered the state and played the role of a good peony.

Mother Ye also hurriedly saluted.

Wen Qinglan retracted her gaze, walked over with a smile, and helped Mother Ye up herself.

"Mother Ye is polite, they are all a family."

Mother Ye said with a straight look: "Fourth Miss, respect and humility are different, you and Miss Seven are a family." “

Hearing Mother Ye say this, Wen Qinglan's mood was a little better.

She was just about to speak, when the voice of green pottery came from behind her.

"Mother! Why haven't you come back! ”

Wen Qinglan turned around suddenly and saw the green pottery trotting over.

Wen Qinglan smiled and said, "Green Tao, why did you come out?" Aren't you going to accompany your young lady? ”

Green Tao glanced at Wen Qinglan angrily, didn't reply, only turned around and ran over.

The moment she saw the peony, her face was overjoyed, and she hurriedly shouted, "You're finally back!" ”

Wen Qingzhu smiled and asked her, "Has Aunt Wu gone to see Miss?" You should have stayed there. ”

"Yes." Green Tao is very similar to talking to Wen Qingzhu, but Wen Qinglan is here, she can't say anything, so she can only hold her hand, "Anyway, you follow me back!" ”

"Fourth Miss, then let's go first." Wen Qingzhu spoke, turned around and followed Lu Tao to the east courtyard.

Wen Qinglan looked at their backs and felt very strange in her heart.

She thought for a long time before asking, "Yuan'er, do you think this peony is not the same as before?" ”

Yuan'er looked at their backs and said very seriously: "The slave feels ...... Why is Peony a bit like Miss Seven? Did the slave just hear her talking about us? ”

Wen Qinglan's eyes sank, and it didn't seem to be very difficult to change her appearance.

Especially now that the year is over, Mother Ye will go out and forget it, what will Peony do when she goes out?

But she also thought clearly, the smoke of Fushoutang came.

"Fourth Miss, the old lady is already waiting over there, please trouble Fourth Miss to hurry over."

"I'm sorry to keep my grandmother waiting." Wen Qinglan immediately showed a perfect smile.

……

In the hall of the East Courtyard.

Peony sat on the main seat with the appearance of Wen Qingzhu in disguise.

Next to her was Aunt Wu, who was holding a needle and thread, and said with a kind smile: "I haven't seen you for a few days, Miss Seven has even forgotten the stitching?" ”

When Aunt Wu said this, Peony's whole body stiffened.

However, she glanced at Wen Qingzhu in a blink of an eye and quickly stood up.

"Peony! You're back! ”

Peony walked over and nodded with a smile: "Miss, I'm back." ”

Seeing this, Aunt Wu felt a little weird.

This peony used to be very sensible, why is he so arrogant today, even if he doesn't pay respects, he even forgot to call himself!

"Aunt Wu, I have something to do with looking for peony, why don't you go back first." Peony finally put her mind at ease and gave Aunt Wu an unceremonious order.

Aunt Wu came here to drag Wen Qingzhu, how could she leave.

"It's okay, Miss Seventh can be busy, the concubine can wait."

"Then you wait." Peony glanced at her, turned around and led Wen Qingzhu into the backyard.

Mother You, who was following Aunt Wu, saw that there was no one around, so she whispered: "Auntie, the slave feels that this Seventh Miss is a little strange. ”

"You feel it too?" Aunt Wu looked sideways, and the scene when the peony came back just now was hovering in her heart.

Half an hour later, Wen Qingzhu walked out with the peony green pottery.

As soon as Aunt Wu got together, Wen Qingzhu raised her hand: "Auntie, let's go back!" I'm going to Fujudo here! ”

"Miss Seven! Didn't the old lady give you a holiday! It's freezing and snowy, you don't have to go over! When Aunt Wu heard this, she put the suspicions just now behind her.

Wen Qingzhu stared at her with a smile: "What? Can my aunt still stop me from leaving? ”

Aunt Wu saw that her eyes were a little unkind, and hurriedly lowered her head: "I can't hide!" The concubine is overstepping! ”

"Then auntie go back!" After Wen Qingzhu said this, he turned around and left.

Aunt Wu in the back gritted her teeth, she couldn't forcibly stop Wen Qingzhu now.

After thinking about it, she decided to throw an olive branch.

"Miss Seven! Wait a minute! The concubine has something to say to you! ”

Wen Qingzhu didn't look back at all, only raised his hand: "I'll talk about it when I come back!" ”

Aunt Wu was a little flustered, and hurriedly followed, and said behind Wen Qingzhu: "Don't you care about the fact that the fifth prince wants to accept you as a concubine?" ”

Hearing this, Wen Qingzhu stopped abruptly.

Aunt Wu was just about to breathe a sigh of relief, but she saw Wen Qingzhu smile and said sarcastically: "Aunt Wu! The five princes are even the crown princes! I'm also rare! ”

Wen Qingzhu didn't give Aunt Wu a chance to talk nonsense at all, and left the east courtyard quickly.

On the way back just now, I ran into condensation.

Obviously, the two sides were going to bump into each other, but Ning Yan deliberately avoided her and Mother Ye.

That means that Ning Yan didn't come to find Wen Qingzhu.

It happened that Wen Qinglan went out.

Why did she, a prejudiced grandmother, summon Wen Qinglan?

In less than two quarters of an hour, Wen Qingzhu arrived at the gate of Fushoutang.

When she was at the door, she was running into Wen Qingxin, who was about to enter.

When Wen Qingxin saw her, his eyes were a little evasive.

However, she still greeted kindly: "Seventh sister, you are also here." ”

Wen Qingzhu said with a smile: "Yes, I heard that the fourth sister came over just now, so I was curious, my grandmother was willing to see the fourth sister, I was really worried, so I came over to have a look." ”

"Well, let's go in together." Wen Qingxin looked quite calm. Huaxiu Chinese

The two of them arrived at the door of the house.

Wen Qinglan's voice happened to come from inside the room, sounding a little excited.

"Grandmother! What the granddaughter said was true! As long as the grandmother agrees to let the aunt straighten it out! Uncle will definitely be able to help solve the matter of grandfather and father! ”

Wen Qingzhu stepped in and said loudly, "Is Uncle Wu so powerful?" In this case, if he really wants to be good friends with the Wen family, he can simply help directly! Now there is a problem, the uncle needs 200,000 taels, it is better to let the uncle of the Wu family help by the way. ”

Wen Qinglan, who was kneeling on the ground, changed her face suddenly.

She turned back abruptly and asked her unwillingly, "Why is the seventh sister here?" ”

Wen Qingzhu ignored her, but walked to Liu's side and sat down.

She kindly held Liu's hand and deliberately coquettishly said, "Grandmother! If the fourth sister is sincere, the uncle just needs help in this matter, so it is better to let them help the uncle, so as not to suffer in the prison. ”

"Seventh sister!" Wen Qinglan was really disgusted with Wen Qingzhu's appearance, and couldn't help but interrupt her.

Wen Qingzhu looked at Wen Qinglan innocently: "Am I not right?" Now the uncle's matter is the urgent need of the Wen family. ”

"Xiao Qi is right." Liu rarely agreed with her words.

Wen Qingzhu chuckled and glanced at Wen Qingxin next to him.

She also secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing Wen Qingzhu's appearance, Wen Qinglan could only explain stubbornly: "Grandmother, the matter of the uncle is really not something that can be solved all at once. ”

"Really?" Wen Qingzhu interrupted her with a smile, "But I heard that Uncle Wu was transferred to the household department, then he will definitely be able to transfer the silver in his hand, and it will definitely be no problem for only 200,000 taels!" It's a big deal, it's borrowed by the Wen family! ”

"You...... How can you ......" Wen Qinglan really couldn't believe it, how did Wen Qingzhu know where Wu Shan was doing.

Wen Qingzhu lowered his head and smiled, and went out to give porridge in the morning.

She didn't run for nothing, the person who followed Master Kim.

She looked at it several times, and it always felt familiar.

On the way back, she finally remembered.

Isn't that person Jiang Yuancheng's secret chess in the household department?

The reason why Jiang Yuancheng was able to turn over was precisely because his roots in the household department were too deep.

Since Jiang Yuancheng chose to have lunch, and now he can't show up for lunch, then Jiang Yuancheng will definitely arrange him in the household department.

Only in the household department can Jiang Yuancheng fully guarantee that Wu Shanwu can make the best use of it.

Liu immediately turned around: "Xiao Qi! Are you telling the truth? Is Lord Wu really a household? ”

Wen Qingzhu nodded affirmatively: "Isn't Wanjia a little related to the household department?" If you spend a little more money and inquire, you will definitely be able to know, but if the fourth sister is sure, we don't need to spend this silver. ”

Hearing this, Liu turned his eyes to look at Wen Qinglan on the ground: "Is your uncle in the household department?" ”

Wen Qinglan supported the ground with her hands, and her heart was so flustered that she couldn't do it.

How did Wen Qingzhu know?

Why would she know? And how can you be sure!

"Isn't it?" Liu was a little impatient.

Seeing that Wen Qinglan still didn't answer, Liu gave an ultimatum: "If you can ask your uncle to help your uncle, then persuade the third child to correct your aunt's affairs, I will allow it!" ”

"This ......" Wen Qinglan hesitated in her heart, she didn't know if she was doing this right.

The fifth prince said that his uncle can't come to the light now.

But just now, Liu relented and promised to help her aunt straighten out.

As long as her aunt straightens things right, she will be the concubine of the Wen family.

Then it is not impossible to marry the fifth prince and be a concubine!

Wen Qinglan was very moved.

She was caught in a whirlpool of struggle.

Wen Qingxin, who was next to him, saw this and knew what Wen Qingzhu had in mind.

She helped to persuade: "Fourth sister, you are already old, obviously you are in time, no matter what, I have to find your in-laws!" There is a big difference between going out as a concubine or going out as a concubine! ”

was stirred up by Wen Qingxin, and Wen Qinglan finally made up her mind.

She raised her head, looked at Liu and said, "That's right! Uncle is indeed in the household department, but at present, he has borrowed someone else's name, and he can't operate it in a big way yet. ”

"It's only 200,000 taels, it's definitely nothing to your uncle!" The smile on Wen Qingzhu's face became deeper and deeper, it seemed that Wen Qinglan was a little smart, but she was not home yet.

"Two hundred thousand taels...... I, I have to discuss it with my aunt......" Wen Qinglan was very scared, she had never seen 200,000 taels of silver in her life.

At the beginning, Aunt Wu was in charge of Yanyuan, and she only had 8,000 taels of silver after saving for several years.

So in Wen Qinglan's heart, 200,000 taels of silver is too much.

"But do you have to hesitate about 200,000 taels?" Liu was actually a little frightened, because 200,000 taels was definitely not a small amount.

But seeing that Wen Qingzhu and Wen Qingxin didn't feel anything, she settled down.

The household department is in charge of the treasury tax and silver, and it may not be a big deal to borrow 200,000 taels temporarily.

Thinking of this, Liu's expression became solemn and began to be aggressive: "Give you a cup of tea time to think about it, just think about it!" ”

Wen Qinglan's palms were covered with cold sweat, and she didn't know if she should agree or not.

Two hundred thousand taels of silver.

It's not a small amount!

Yuan'er stood aside, listening to several masters talking about 200,000 taels lightly, as if they were talking about 200,000 taels.

She felt that something was wrong.

She was just about to speak, but Peony suddenly stepped forward and pulled Yuan'er away: "Sister Yuan'er, I heard that the matter between you and Ah Hu is going to be completed?" ”

With such a distraction, Yuan'er had no space to remind Wen Qinglan at all.

The time was almost up, and the cold sweat on Wen Qinglan's forehead fell drop by drop.

Wet on the carpet and disappear in a moment.

Finally, Wen Qinglan raised her head and stammered, "I, I-"

"Lan'er!" Aunt Wu suddenly trotted in.

She knelt beside Wen Qinglan, shook her head secretly, and fell to the ground to explain to Liu: "Old lady! Lan'er has a lot of things she doesn't know! Please don't embarrass the old lady. ”
