Text Chapter 386 - A Lifesaver
As Qiao Lixi planned, when they embarked on the return journey, they happened to have half a month to spend on the road.
When I come back this time, everything that should be dealt with has been dealt with, and the rest depends on whether the two princes are fighting or not.
The undercurrent of the capital and Jincheng, she didn't know, the group returned to the Dingguo Marquis Mansion in a mighty way, Qiao Lixi asked Astragalus to go to the main courtyard to report, and she went back to the "Wutong Pavilion" directly.
For her hurried trip to go and back, outsiders don't seem to think anything strange.
In fact, the Zhenyuan Hou family gives people the feeling that in addition to being powerful, it is mysterious.
Stationed in southern Xinjiang for decades, there has not been a single defeat of the strong.
Shen Jiajun Shenlong saw the mystery of the beginning and the end.
Besides, everyone already knows that Qiao Lixi returned to Jincheng to deal with the affairs of the camp and the horse farm, and went to the arsenal to hang around by the way.
Thinking about it now, Mrs. Lu has handed over the affairs in her hands to Qiao Yixi.
Before, due to the door of the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion, others did not dare to approach easily, and it would be much easier to change Qiao Lixi, at least, the worship post went directly to the Dingguo Marquis Mansion, Qiao Lixi's head, and there was a serious mother-in-law-Feng.
There is no follow-up to the gatehouse where the post is sent to the "Wutong Pavilion", and outsiders have no chance to see Qiao Lixi, but it does not hinder the people in the Dingguo Marquis's mansion.
Qiao Jinwen relied on her relationship with Qiao Lixi and took the initiative to go to the "Wutong Pavilion".
It's just that the porter didn't let her in, but invited her to the back garden of the Dingguo Marquis's Mansion, and after a while, Qiao Yixi also went to the back garden with wolfberries and angelica.
"Jojo." Seeing Qiao Yixi's figure from a distance, Qiao Jinwen stood up.
When she found out that her actions were a little impatient and flattering, there was a slight annoyance in her eyes.
During this time, she didn't have a good time in the Hou Mansion, how many people scolded her in the past, and how much they made it difficult for her now.
gave birth to a stillborn baby, she was still a monster, she was not sent away, it was entirely because the fourth room of the Qiao family was still useful, Gu Jinxuan had to keep her as an appearance, if her father's "splendor" was gone, then ......
She's going to be disposed of like a hoodoo!
Look at the people around her, in addition to the dowry maid and grandmother she brought with her, the people in the West Courtyard, which one still treats her as the master?
Aunt?
Her current situation is not as good as the maid in the house, and she is still an aunt!
Qiao Lixi!
Qiao Lixi is her last hope!
Therefore, when the front foot learned that Qiao Lixi was back, she couldn't wait to get to the "Wutong Pavilion" on the back foot.
Fortunately, Qiao Lixi didn't turn her away thousands of miles away, which shows that everything still has a turnaround, isn't it?
"Aunt Wen." Qiao Lixi greeted with kindness.
Qiao Jinwen was a little excited, standing in place, and waited until Qiao Lixi entered the pavilion and sat down, and then she sat down opposite her.
"Qiaoqiao has lost weight, and he has suffered a lot on the road, right?" Qiao Jinwen said as she poured a cup of flower tea for Qiao Lixi with her own hands, and pushed the pastry in front of her in front of Qiao Lixi, "This is the flower tea made by the third sister, it is the flavor you like." The third sister still remembers that before leaving the cabinet, you liked to pester the third sister to drink tea the most. This is osmanthus cake, osmanthus was picked by the third sister last year and preserved, you can taste it. ”
Qiao Lixi lowered her eyes and glanced at it, but she didn't move.
Qiao Jinwen sighed melancholy and withdrew her outstretched hand, "Also, now that our sisters have become concubines, we have lost the intimacy before leaving the cabinet." ”
"Aunt Wen," it was Goji Berry who said this, "the slave thinks you are afraid that there is some misunderstanding." My wife and Gu Er, milk, and milk in the second room are concubines, and Aunt Wen really have nothing to do with each other. ”
If it was in the past, Qiao Jinwen would definitely be furious, and even reprimanded a few words.
But after listening to Goji Berry's words today, she just smiled miserably, "Qiaoqiao, the third sister understands, the third sister is like this now, everyone avoids it, who will talk about the love of the past." ”
The wolfberry still wanted to slam back sharply, but Qiao Yixi spoke, "Aunt Wen, you are not reluctant, you know best, when you were in Qiao's house, what kind of mood and purpose you had for me, so it is better not to say these righteous and awe-inspiring words, so as not to lose your face." Don't be sarcastic about me, why now that my status is different, my sisterhood has changed. When blaming others, think about yourself first. I'm willing to come to see you today, not to hear you say these things, so if you have anything to say, what is your purpose, let's just say it, so polite and tempting, I'm afraid I'll pretend to be stupid. I don't want to be entangled in unnecessary people and things, so I'll give you a chance to talk slowly. ”
Qiao Jinwen was stunned.
I thought that Qiao Yixi might turn her face, but I didn't think that she would be so direct, so direct that she didn't show any affection for each other.
Taking a deep breath, Qiao Jinwen also lost the flattery she had before, and looked into Qiao Yixi's eyes, and her tone was also the same as before, "Qiao Qiao, I just want to ask, did you come to Jincheng this time to help Mrs. Lu do things?" ”
"Yes."
Qiao Lixi said a simple word, and Qiao Jinwen choked up.
Qiao Yixi was so simple, but it made her feel uncertain.
Qiao Lixi slowly picked up the flower tea in front of her and took a sip.
The fragrance of the flower dilutes the astringency of the tea, with a slight sweet and greasy taste, which is not very delicious, but it smells really good.
With a roll of her eyes, Qiao Jinwen asked again: "Are you going to deal with the affairs of the camp and the horse farm?" ”
"Yes."
Qiao Lixi's simplicity made Qiao Jinwen make persistent efforts, "The horse farm and camp are on Niutou Mountain?" ”
"Aunt Wen, you are testing the military situation like this, if there is a problem between the Shen family army and the horse farm, the first person I want to suspect and interrogate is you."
Qiao Jinwen paused before saying, "The third sister is afraid that you won't handle it well, so I care about you a few more words." ”
"If you are not in her position, you are not in charge, Aunt Wen, I am Grandma Gu, I am General Gu's wife, do these have anything to do with you? I really want to elaborate, you are a person from the second room, we are incompatible in Qiao's house, and in the Dingguo Marquis Mansion, we are also hostile, do you think, is it really good for you to say this? ”
Qiao Jinwen was only embarrassed for a moment, and recovered in the blink of an eye.
"Qiaoqiao, you are like this, the third sister is not down-to-earth in her heart, you shouldn't be fooling me, right?"
Qiao Yixi immediately smiled, "If you can let you know, outsiders can also know." I went out with great fanfare, and I didn't believe it myself to say that there was no tail in the back. Since I don't hide my whereabouts, it means that I have nothing to hide, not to mention, you have already guessed in your hearts, and it doesn't matter if I admit it or not. Instead of going to great lengths to hide it, why don't I admit it generously? I'm not going to do stealing chickens and dogs, I'm contributing to the Shen family's army and the safety of the dynasty, I wish everyone knew what I did, you ask, I will naturally answer. It's just, Aunt Wen, the brain is a good thing, you have to learn to catch it, ask what you shouldn't ask, if something happens, no one can save you. ”
Qiao Jinwen stared at Qiao Lixi directly, and the fire under her eyes almost materialized.
Qiao Lixi raised her eyebrows unexpectedly.
Didn't have a seizure?
Qiao Jinwen's picture is a bit big.
"Yes, it's the third sister who thinks about it, and the third sister also cares about you."
Although Qiao Lixi said that she didn't want to be with Qiao Jinwen, the habits in her bones could not be changed, and after saying less than two sentences, Qiao Jinwen began to chew words again.
Qiao Yixi snorted softly in a nasal voice.
"Qiaoqiao, as you said, you must have followed a lot of tails when you went out this time, have you dealt with them all? Mrs. Lu handed over these things to you, firstly, to cultivate your ability, and secondly, to prepare in advance, and those affairs will fall on you in the future. The third sister knows that you don't trust me now, and in other places, the third sister can't help, but if you need silver, the third sister can still help you think of a way. ”
Qiao Lixi looked at Qiao Jinwen with a strange expression.
Qiao Jinwen explained: "The third sister heard that you transferred all the funds of the property left in Jincheng, but what difficulties did you encounter? You must know that the Shen family army is not the Shen family army of the Marquis of Zhenyuan, but the Shen family army of our dynasty, if you need silver, the third sister can help you find a way. ”
"The third sister's 'splendor' is no problem?"
Qiao Lixi swallowed gently, and if it didn't hurt or itch, it made Qiao Jinwen's face change.
Qiao Qiao's words poked the third sister's heart. Our four rooms are incapable, not as good as the long room, but the third sister really wants to help, the third sister is incapable, but the third sister can help find a way, there are so many people in the circle, so many people in the dynasty, everyone do their part, and they will always get out of the predicament. ”
"Aunt Wen is too worried, the Shen family army and the horse farm are very good, I mobilize funds, naturally there is a use for me, Aunt Wen doesn't have to speculate anymore."
The more Qiao Lixi didn't say it, the more Qiao Jinwen thought it was greasy.
Others may not know, but she knows better than anyone what the net profit of those industries in Qiao's house is in a month.
Qiao Lixi mobilized all industries in one go, all the funds this year, although this so-called "this year" is only a quarter, but that amount of money makes her heart scratch like a cat!
If there is such a large amount of silver injection, not to mention the normal operation of "Splendid Beauty", it is more than enough to bring "Splendid Beauty" back to life!
Of course, the most important thing is, where did Qiao Yixi use all this silver?
Before, Qiao Lixi swindled back more than one million taels of silver from the Feng family, although it was to repay the debt in installments, how many people could be ready to move?
Now, Qiao Lixi has mobilized such a large amount of money, is he going to make trouble?
Is it for the Shen family army and camp, or for the development of the capital?
Whether it's the former or the latter, it's a threat to her.
No, it is a threat to the development of the current situation in the capital!
Moreover, what she wants to know most is about the camp and the Shen family's army, which is related to whether she can turn over!
As long as Gu Jinxuan knows that she is still useful, her past favors will come back!
This has almost become Qiao Jinwen's obsession.
Look at Qiao Ningdai, and then look at Qiao Lixi, her two "good sisters" are now going to be windy and rainy, how can she not be jealous?
