Chapter 118 Apportionment of Responsibilities
It's just that they didn't expect Mama Shen to catch the pre-arranged murderer in the first place.
Mrs. Sun is also smart, knowing that Mama Shen has already interrogated the pretending murderer, with the methods of the Gu family, what should be known and what should not be known, Qiao Lixi knows everything, so she will make a deal with Qiao Lixi in the end.
Although she knew that Qiao Lixi might retaliate, Qiao Lixi's top priority was not the Sun family, she still had a chance, besides, she didn't know who would lose or win in the end, she still had a chance.
It's just that......
Looking at the finches trembling on the ground, and staring at her daughter for a moment, Mrs. Sun sighed.
"Mother......
Sun Xian looked at Mrs. Sun worriedly.
Pretending to be stupid before, she couldn't say a word, but this didn't affect her to see the situation clearly, although she didn't say anything, she knew that she lost this game.
"Que'er, you can go to Zhuangzi with Mama later."
"Madame......"
"Mother!"
Mrs. Sun glanced at Sun Xian, who was immediately silent.
"Que'er, you should know that if you go to Zhuangzi, you still have a way to live, and staying with Miss is a dead end."
"Madame......" The finch was unwilling and was still dying.
She is the big girl next to Miss, who doesn't look down on her in the backyard, and follows Miss when she is young, and she is Miss's henchman. Over the years, I have done so many things for Miss openly and secretly, and every single one of them has won the hearts of Miss Miss. It's not that she's arrogant, the people around Miss, and only she has this ability, and in the future, Miss will become a monk, and she may be able to be an aunt. Once she went to Zhuangzi, there was nothing.
"Que'er, you are a smart one, you know what choice is the best for you, you are the big girl next to Xian'er, you have done your best all these years, I will not treat you badly, after this matter, I will arrange for you to marry a steward, and you will be prosperous in Zhuangzi."
So, she can't go back to Jincheng?
You can only hide on Zhuangzi like a mouse.
How beautiful can it be on Zhuangzi?
Charge?
To put it nicely, it's not a mud leg.
It's true that she is a maid, but she is the big maid next to the young lady, even the aunt also did it, she grew up pampered, her food and clothing are comparable to that of a small family jasper, and she is more than a little better than the daughter of ordinary people outside, and she wants her to marry a clay-legged man, how willing is she!
"Sparrows?" Mrs. Sun's eyebrows were undisguised impatience.
The people in the backyard, from the master to the minions, which one is not ambitious.
It's good to be ambitious, but it also depends on whether you have the blessing to support your ambition.
Finch, apparently, didn't have that life.
"Yes, ma'am, the slave and maid obey Madame's arrangement."
Mrs. Sun nodded with satisfaction, "It's best if you can figure it out, okay, you and Miss say goodbye well, and immediately follow Mama to Zhuangzi." ”
After Mrs. Sun left, the queen knelt in front of Sun Xian with a "plop".
"Miss, the slave maid can't serve Miss in the future, and she can't do things for Miss anymore, Miss, you have to take good care of yourself. You have a bad stomach, you must eat on time, the following girls, although a little stupid, can be well adjusted, there are times when they can be used. If they do something wrong, miss, don't be angry and leave it to Mama. Anger hurts your body, your body is weak, don't hurt yourself for those who don't deserve it. That Qiao Yixi, miss, don't worry, the slave and maid will help you think of a way in the Zhuangzi, as long as the slave and maid are still there, the slave and maid will help you out of this breath. ”
"Sparrow ......" Sun Xian also burst into tears.
After all, he is the most comfortable person to use, and the few around him are smart, but they are not alert and steady. In addition, over the years, Que'er has secretly helped her do a lot of pickled things, if she holds a grudge and arrives in Zhuangzi, I am afraid that she will be uneasy.
With a roll of her eyes, Sun Xian took Que'er's hand and held it hard, "You first wronged Zhuangzi for a while, and when this matter is over, you come back with another identity, even if you can't follow me, I will also arrange a proper place for you." You know how many shops I have under my name, and it will be my dowry shop in the future, and when the time comes, you will be a housekeeper and be my companion. ”
"Slave, thank you, Miss, for your kindness." The finch knelt down again.
In the middle of the night, the finch followed Mama to the Zhuangzi.
This is also what Mrs. Sun said to Qiao Yixi.
Que'er offended Qiao Lixi first, but Qi'er is a member of the Sun family, Mrs. Sun is not for anything else, even for the sake of face, she will not hand over people to Qiao Lixi, and Qiao Lixi will not be an enemy of the Sun family for a maid, so she directly sends people to Zhuangzi, and finally gets sick and dies, and both parties can get the results they want.
……
The restaurant in partnership between Qiao Lixi and Jin Baijin was opened, and it was the first restaurant in Jincheng to operate medicinal food.
The general medicinal diet, the people still know, but Qiao Lixi and Jin Baijin took a lofty route, originally the two only planned to be the owners behind the scenes, but after Qiao Lixi had a new plan, the owner of this restaurant has become a small industry for Jin Baijin.
The name of "Yipinlou", not only in Jincheng sideways, but also in the capital also has a reputation, the entire dynasty, where there are people, there is "Yipinlou", and even in southern Xinjiang, close to the town where the Shen family guards are stationed, there is also a "Yipinlou".
The Jin family is not the richest man in the dynasty, and it is not far from the richest man.
But the people of the Jin family are very low-key and very smart.
Every year, he will donate a sum of silver, or help the people, or donate it to the imperial court, which is not too big or small to mix up the name of "great benevolent", and the relationship with the ministers of the court and the central government is also very good.
Speaking of this, Qiao Yixi had to admire the intelligence of the Jin family, the ministers they befriended, there were nine-rank sesame officials, and there were also fourth- and fifth-grade officials, and the positions were neither high nor low, and there were no more. The people of the Jin family do not touch the high-ranking and powerful people, and they are not friends with the ministers of a certain gang, whether it is the princeling, a certain prince's party, or a neutral and royalist party, there are all factions, and the number and power are equal, check and balance each other, so as to avoid unknowingly becoming the unjust leader of a certain faction, and finally tied to a certain party.
It stands to reason that the Jin family has such a rich heritage, not to mention being resident in the capital, it should be a top family in Jincheng. But the Jin family's except for the semi-annual inspection of the shops will leave Jincheng, and the large army has been staying in place. Even in the Chamber of Commerce, he is just an ordinary member, abiding by the responsibilities and obligations of the members, and not interfering in matters that exceed his identity.
It's just a pity.
Qiao Lixi glanced at the enthusiastic Jin Birkin.
The Jin family's heirs are difficult, and each generation is a single transmission, that is, occasionally giving birth to a second child, and one of the two children will also die without accidents.
Just like Kimberkin's father, there are so many aunts, and there is only one golden pimple in Kimberkin, in order to continue the bloodline, the men of the Jin family get married very early, and Kimberkin's mother is three years older than his father, which is also for the purpose of facilitating childbirth.
Being stared at by Qiao Lixi with obscene eyes all the time, Jin Baijin's heart was numb, "Qiaoqiao, what advice do you have?" ”
I'm so scared that I can't even speak so politely.
"You're thirteen, aren't you? I heard that your aunt is showing you a daughter-in-law? ”
Kimberkin's little face fell, "It's a friend, don't say such a bad thing." ”
"It's a happy event." Qiao Yixi said deliberately.
"Hehe, marry a housekeeper and go back, there is no freedom at all."
Yo, there is a future of strict wife.
"Okay, let's get down to business," Qiao Yixi retracted the topic, "It's been three days since the restaurant opened, and the income has exceeded my expectations." ”
"That's," said Kimberkin, proud of his restaurant, "I don't look at who I am, I'm a professional." ”
The word "professional", Jin Baijin still listened to Qiao Lixi.
"General medicinal diets are very common, but many of my family's recipes are from the palace, which have been collected and improved by my family for several generations. However, as you said, the richer and more powerful people are, the more attention they pay to maintenance, and who doesn't want to live a few more years and enjoy money and power while seeking more money and power. People take food as their day, and it is an acceptable way for everyone to take food as their day, and it can also show their status. ”
Looking at the chattering and shaking his head, Qiao Yixi shook his head amusedly.
"The recipe is yours, you only take care of the kitchen, but you have to listen to me when you buy medicinal herbs."
Jin Baijin looked at Qiao Yixi with a strange expression, "Qiao Qiao, didn't you say that the medicinal herbs came in from the Li family before?" ”
"I came in from the Li family."
"But ......" only said two words, and Kimberkin stopped continuing.
As a partner, Kimberkin naturally believes in Qiao Lixi.
Foodmakers are especially cautious about what they want to eat, which is not only related to word of mouth, but also related to life. Just like an ordinary medicinal diet, if used well, it can regulate the body, treat some minor problems, strengthen the foundation, and if it is not used well, it can also be a deadly poison.
Therefore, the same thing, in the hands of different people, because the purpose is different, the role is different, and the result is even different.
……
Jincheng, a courtyard somewhere in the suburbs.
An ordinary carriage stopped at the back door of the annex.
The first to jump out of the carriage was a little maid, who looked around alertly.
This is a suburban courtyard, surrounded by tenants, and the location is on the side, and people in the village rarely come here.
The owner of the predecessor of the yard is said to be a large landlord of this land, and after his son developed in the capital, he sold the yard, and the land was still kept, rented to tenants, and he also earned a little more every year.
"Husband, miss, no one." Too nervous, the maid almost called the wrong name.
The people in the car snorted dissatisfiedly, and got out of the carriage slowly, wearing a cloak and a hood covering their entire faces.
The figure didn't stop long, entered the courtyard directly through the back door, walked a few steps quickly, waved his hand, and took off the hood on his head.
"Miss." The grandmother beside her cautiously reminded.
