Chapter 143: Matter
Then, she pointed to the maid who had just entered the door and said, "But this maid didn't let Lian'er enter the door, and asked why, but she couldn't tell why." In order to get rid of the crime, I actually found an excuse, why didn't I say it earlier! ”
"The master of the house, the slave and maid are wronged!" The maid immediately knelt down and cried in fright.
Zhou Hongmu frowned slightly, this matter is not good if it is more real, it is not good if it is not true, and the comfortable mood is making trouble again. He didn't know what Zhou Qinglian's little daughter's family was thinking, but he didn't care about it.
"Lian'er, since you are from Yu Wenwen, then go find her." Zhou Hongmu got up and sighed, straightened his robes and turned to leave.
Zhou Qinglian was stunned for a moment, strange, why is Uncle Zhou so cold to me?
Just when she wanted to turn around and talk to Zhou Lingmo, Zhou Huanchun stepped forward, helped the maid, and asked softly, "What's your name?" ”
"The slave's name is Xiaoli." She replied resignedly.
"Xiaoli?" Zhou Huanchun's eyes widened in surprise, she looked back at Zhou Lingmo and said, "Husband, didn't you say in the morning that there was a maid named Xiaoli who was very clever and wanted to give it to me?" ”
Zhou Lingmo glanced at her and couldn't help but smile, "Yes, it's this Xiaoli." ”
No way, she wanted to play, so I played with her.
Zhou Huanchun smiled, "Xiaoli, it's really a coincidence, before the young master of your family gave you to Mrs. Ben, you made a mistake and appeared in front of Mrs. Ben." ”
Xiaoli immediately shook her head and said aggrievedly: "Young lady, the slave didn't lie. ”
Although she looks weak, she dares to cry out for injustice. In this case, either the person's temperament is straight and tendoned. Either that's new here, and it's not been long since you did it.
But no matter what the reason, Zhou Huanchun likes people who dare to speak out, so she smiled and said, "Didn't lie? Could it be that the eldest lady of the Zhou family has wronged you? ”
After finishing speaking, he glanced at Zhou Qinglian. Seeing Zhou Qinglian sneered, "Joke, as for the lord of this county who wronged a slave!?" ”
The corners of Zhou Huanchun's mouth lifted lightly, "Also, after all, the eldest lady of the Zhou family is not so cheap!" ”
Zhou Qinglian's face changed, and a touch of yin flickered in her eyes, "Zhou Huan ...... spring"
"Someone!" Zhou Huanchun didn't wait for her to finish, and immediately interrupted her words, "Give the county lord another twenty slaps to the eldest lady of the Zhou family!" ”
At this time, a maid came forward, and without saying a word, she stretched out her hand to fight.
If Zhou Huanchun is not mistaken, this maid seems to have been following her all the time, and every time she called someone to slap her, she appeared, and it seemed that she only hit Zhou Qinglian once.
Bang Bang Bang ......
"Zhou Huanchun!" Zhou Qinglian stumbled, and almost didn't stand firm, but a little guy came over to support her.
"Twenty more slaps!" Zhou Huanchun looked at her with a smile on the corner of her mouth.
"Yes!" The maid took the order.
This time, Zhou Qinglian finally didn't dare to speak anymore.
Zhou Huanchun asked the slapping maid, "Do you know why the county lord wants to slap this person?" ”
"Go back to the county lord, because she calls the county lord by his name." The maid replied seriously.
Zhou Huanchun smiled with satisfaction, "What's your name?" ”
"Go back to the county master, slave Xiaomu." She is a person who doesn't talk much and is relatively cold.
It just so happened that Zhou Huanchun didn't have the maid given by the emperor to serve her, and this eyeliner could be inserted.
"You are very clever, and you will be by your side in the future." Zhou Huanchun smiled.
"Lord Xie." Although Xiao Mu is a delicate and lovely person, he is not smiling and a little cold.
Zhou Huanchun turned her head at this time, looked at Zhou Qinglian, whose face was swollen again, and smiled, "Oh, where is the shadow of the first beauty in the imperial capital?" ”
After ridiculing, she paused, stared sharply, and said in a deep voice: "Zhou Qinglian, the county lord warns you for the last time, the royal family is respected, and if you don't want to suffer, you will surrender obediently." After all, the prince's daughter is a county lord, but she doesn't even have a fief or a mansion! ”
Zhou Qinglian understood this warning. She gritted her teeth, very unwilling, but she didn't dare to speak again. Today's face is so easy to get swollen, as long as you cover it with rouge gouache, you can't see it obviously, but it's good, and your face is swollen again.
"Miss Zhou, aren't you looking for Wenwen? Let's take our leave. "Zhou Lingmo doesn't want to waste any more time here.
A voice of Miss Zhou made Zhou Qinglian's heart ache. Brother Lingmo, how can you be so alienated from me, you used to call me Sister Lian'er!
But she didn't dare to raise her head, so she could only lower her head and grit her teeth with hatred.
"By the way, Qinghe, you just go and send Luohongpa to the Sanwang Mansion to report a message." Zhou Lingmo's command came from outside the door.
Falling red pa......
Brother Lingmo, this kind of woman, with a scar all over her body, you can also eat it!?
Zhou Qinglian's tears finally couldn't help flowing, and she whispered hatefully: "Zhou Huanchun, you really deserve to die, I used to think that my mother was ruthless, but now it seems that if you don't die, I won't have a way to live!" ”
What she didn't know was that Zhou Huanchun's ears had already taken her words into her ears.
"It's really them." Zhou Huanchun muttered in a low voice.
"What?" Zhou Lingmo asked as she walked.
"Do you think the person who assassinated me is the Xue family, the second aunt of the Zhou family?" Zhou Huanchun asked.
Zhou Lingmo rubbed his lower lip, pondered for a while and said, "If you have a motive, there are still some motives. But there is no evidence now, but that Tao Qi is a breakthrough. ”
Zhou Huanchun glanced at him and chuckled, "I didn't expect that Master Zhou would be so serious?" ”
Zhou Lingmo looked at her and smiled, "Huh? Serious? When am I not passing by? I didn't even touch you in that situation yesterday. Look at the eldest sister of your family, who is in a hurry to be my woman! ”
The implication is that you are not interested!
Zhou Huanchun smiled, "Then you still don't accept it?" That's the number one beauty in the imperial capital! ”
Zhou Lingmo snorted lightly, "Beauty? See more. She is just the first beauty in the imperial capital, you have never seen a beauty in the south, small and exquisite, graceful, and charming with a smile. However, the children they give birth to may not have brains in addition to being good-looking! ”
"The smart woman in the world, but I'm not the only one Zhou Huanchun." She looked up at him.
Zhou Lingmo nodded, smiled lightly, and did not deny it.
Wind and rain building
This is Zhou Lingmo's yard, the area is not large, just a small courtyard, except for a specific maid to clean up, no one can enter this yard.
"I'll show you something." Zhou Huanchun hooked her fingers and motioned for Zhou Lingmo to follow.
She took Zhou Lingmo to the treasury, where all the finances of the two of them were stored. There are a total of four rooms in the treasury, two of which are Zhou Lingmo's original small vaults, and after Zhou Huanchun came, he occupied two more rooms.
It was the first time he had come to his own vault, and he had used to look at the ledger directly from Lin Yu.
"What?" Zhou Lingmo saw her mysterious look, and couldn't help but ask curiously.
Few people can do something that makes him curious. And Zhou Huanchun is one of the few.
Zhou Huanchun searched for a long time in her dowry pile before she saw a smaller box, and then pointed to the box and said, "Husband, quick, help me move out the darker, smaller box." ”
Zhou Lingmo raised his eyebrows, couldn't help but smile, walked over and moved out, it was not very heavy, the weight he could just accept.
"What is this? Could it be your dowry? Zhou Lingmo asked strangely, it stands to reason that the dowry cannot be so light, and this box is not the dowry box he sent!
"It's a dowry!" Zhou Huanchun raised her chin proudly.
After opening the box, Zhou Lingmo looked at the bottles and cans inside, as well as a bunch of wooden sticks, and looked up at her half-loudly and asked, "Are you sure you took it correctly?" ”
Zhou Huanchun asked the maids and servants outside to carry the boxes, and said, "That's right, that's it, hey, you take it lightly and send it to the side hall of the master bedroom." ”
Then, he said to Zhou Lingmo: "Believe it or not, with these things, I can double the profits of the Zhou family's business!" ”
Zhou Lingmo raised her eyebrows, "What?" Doubled? Do you know how big the Zhou family's business is? ”
The corners of Zhou Huanchun's mouth lifted lightly, "Of course I know, but I said that if I can double it, I can double it!" ”
After finishing speaking, he rubbed his stomach and said, "Hey, early in the morning, I want to go to Yunxiaolou for breakfast." ”
Zhou Lingmo looked at her with doting eyes, "Okay, Lin Yu, I was taken to Yunxiao Tower by carriage." ”
"Yes."
Chiyang Qinghe heard it and looked at each other. The things in this cloud tower are delicious and good, but the two of them eat them every day, and they feel a little crying without tears.
The same dish, eating too much is also tired! Why can't Zhou Huanchun get tired of eating!?
Sky Tower
It was still a private room, Zhou Huanchun was in need of replenishing her body, and she found that the recipes in Yunxiaolou were very in line with nutrition.
"Is it enough? Not enough to give you some more. Zhou Lingmo barely moved her chopsticks, just watched Zhou Huanchun eat there.
Although the sleeping appearance is indecent, the eating appearance is still acceptable.
Zhou Huanchun shook her head, "No need, my body just needs these things." ”
"Huh? Just need these things? What do you mean? Zhou Lingmo found that many times, he couldn't understand Zhou Huanchun's words, and almost all of them used guesses, and he could only guess a rough idea.
Zhou Huanchun smiled, "I just want to eat it!" Let's not talk about this for now, wait until you go to business with me! ”
"I'm going to do business with you?" Zhou Lingmo smiled, "I'll go with you, and you still have room to play?" ”
Zhou Huanchun pursed her lips and glanced at him, "Young Master, you think too much, please deign to be a guard for me." ”
Zhou Lingmo raised his eyebrows and said funny: "Zhou Huanchun, this imperial capital, you are the first person who dares to let me Zhou Lingmo be a guard." ”
Zhou Huanchun smiled, "Hmm...... For the money to be earned in the future, I'm afraid this guard should be worth it! ”
"I hope it's worth it." Zhou Lingmo smiled lightly, "This is the development you want to give the Zhou family in the future?" ”
He remembered that day Zhou Huanchun told him about business.
Zhou Huanchun snorted, nodded and said: "Yes, I have been preparing for three days, I dare to say that in this world, no one can be worthy of the dowry you give, only me Zhou Huanchun!" Of course, I'm talking about material values. In the future, if you have a beloved woman, it will be different. ”
"Matter?" Zhou Lingmo can only guess a rough idea, but he still has to confirm it.
"It's something that can be exchanged for money, and it's called material." Zhou Huanchun explained.
Zhou Lingmo sighed, "Is there still a spiritual value?" ”
Zhou Huanchun admired his cleverness, nodded and said, "That's what it means." ”
"Where did you learn these words?" Zhou Lingmo was curious.
Zhou Huanchun smiled, "I'll just dream, a god sect!" ”
Zhou Lingmo could tell that she was perfunctory, but it didn't matter.
After eating, Zhou Huanchun opened a small hand-held box, "You call Lin Yu and them up." ”
Zhou Lingmo got up and opened the door, and signaled to the three people who were eating at the table on the first floor, and the three of them immediately went upstairs.
