Chapter 071: Confirmation
The big beggar holding the silver in both hands said with an incomparably bright smile: "Lin Zhengbei's wife is a jealous woman, so he doesn't dare to do anything on the surface, but this foreign master has raised an outer room outside with his wife behind his back. That woman also has a background. She is the world's famous Yangzhou thin horse. This woman is not only petite and exquisite, beautiful and moving, but also won Lin Zhengbei's heart. As soon as he was free, he would run to the woman. Hehe, the little lady also gave birth to a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses for him. This year, the two children should also be seven or eight years old. ”
Li Wenxuan's interest was immediately aroused by him, and he said, "Do you know the woman's residence?" ”
The big beggar who put the silver in his hand into his arms smiled and said: "At the end of Chengnan Street, Lin Ji Rice Shop turns right, walks about twenty steps, and you can see a house with two lanterns hanging at the door of the house. ”
Listening to Li Wenxuan's detailed narration of him, he estimated that most of this matter was true. I thought that although Lin Zhengbei had done a lot of things due to lack of morality, it did not let him cut off his children and grandchildren, but on the contrary, he was thriving, and he was spreading more and more. He felt that this person had really responded to the scourge for a thousand years, and a good person would not live long, so he smiled strangely and said, "He's quite convenient." ”
I could hear that he was a big beggar who had something to say, and he understood exactly what it meant. He laughed, and after promising the word "indeed" in his mouth, he was about to leave, after all, he had already finished what he should have said when he saw Li Wenxuan this time. Li Wenxuan, who didn't have any more beggars, raised his hand and waved it, signaling that he could go. He got a silver ingot and was rewarded, and when he walked out of the side door, he was in a very good mood and hummed a prodigal little song, and went slowly.
In order to be safe during the period, Li Wenxuan went back to the concierge to see Zhu Biao, and repeatedly asked him to confirm the two things that the big beggar said. For Li Wenxuan, the news that "the Lin family brothers are not harmonious" and "Lin Zhengbei is raising children outside the room" is of great value. I believe that Zhu Biao, who knows the three sects and nine streams in this city, has a way to get relevant news. Zhu Biao, who received the order, followed his instructions, and went out to find his friends to inquire about the corresponding news without saying a word.
Li Wenxuan, who wished that these two things were all true, walked inside with his hands behind his back. With his brains activated, a strange smile appeared on his face again. The breakthrough I needed appeared. Li Wenxuan, who returned to the study, had no intention of continuing to read, but began to plan and plan while waiting for Zhu Biao to come back.
The sun was setting in the west, and the sunset was burning the sky. When it was time for dinner at home, Zhao Tianer and Su Meiniang took turns to come to the study to ask Li Wenxuan to eat, but he urgently needed Zhu Biao to bring back the confirmed news, so he repeatedly excused himself from having no appetite and didn't want to eat, and asked them to eat first. When the two girls saw that he didn't need dinner, they had to wait and eat.
Su Meiniang, who can observe words and emotions and has a delicate enough mind, although she can see that he must have something in his heart, but she can't figure out what it is. Since Li Wenxuan didn't mean to take the initiative to say it, she didn't go to the bottom of it. I can know that this woman is too smart, which may not be a good thing. She was really a little hungry, sitting in the flower hall with Zhao Tianer, eating pastries to cushion the bottom.
Zhu Biao, who was sweating profusely, did not sit down to take a breath and drink water after returning to Li's house, but trotted directly to the study. Li Wenxuan, who saw him come in, stood up abruptly and asked eagerly, "How about the things I asked you to inquire about?" ”
Zhu Biao, who exuded a strong smell of sweat all over his body, replied 1510: "Those two things, all of them are true." The two brothers Lin Jiafu and Lin Jiagui are not harmonious, and it is a matter of everyone who knows that they have arrived. As the eldest son, Lin Jiafu, what he likes and supports, then Lin Jiagui, as the second son, will definitely hate and oppose something. In recent days, in order to compete for the top girl Peony in Baihualou, the two brothers have reached the point of tension and incompatibility. As for their son Lin Zhengbei raising a concubine outside, I asked a friend who was mixed in the south of the city, and confirmed that it was indeed the case. ”
"You've worked hard this time. Let's go down and eat! Li Wenxuan, who knew that Zhu Biao didn't love money, didn't reward him, not because he was stingy, but because the more he used him, the happier the other party became, as if he was regarded as a kind of cultivation.
"It's not hard." Zhu Biao, who smiled very honestly, said quickly: "I can serve you, but I am accumulating blessings for myself." In this regard, Li Wenxuan, who did not feel any surprise, just nodded with a smile. Zhu Biao, who had retreated, also felt hungry in his stomach, so he went to the kitchen to eat.
Also realizing that Li Wenxuan, who was already "cooing" in his stomach, walked out of the study. I also wanted to go to the kitchen to find some food, but halfway through, I met Su Meiniang, who came to call him for dinner. Li Wenxuan, who didn't say that he was not hungry, went to the flower hall with her. He was in a good mood and had a good appetite, accompanied by Zhao Tianer and Su Meiniang, but he didn't eat less.
"Mei Niang, you take out a silver ticket of three hundred taels of silver for me." Li Wenxuan, who was chewing food in his mouth, thought that he would have to spend a lot of money in the future, and he couldn't help but worry about making ends meet, and ordered: "If those people from the official gentry family have contact with you in private, then you can sell the pill to them at your own discretion." As for how much to sell, you can decide for yourself on a case-by-case basis. But if there is one, it can't be sold too cheaply, and the cold incense pill will not be sold for the time being. ”
Su Meiniang, who didn't ask him what was the use of taking the silver ticket, responded with the word "good". The reason why Li Wenxuan didn't sell cold incense pills was because he thought that this kind of big tonic pill could not be taken casually like painkillers and Qingxin pills. Qingxin pills and painkillers will not cause much trouble if you eat too much or too little, and cold incense pills have a very big relationship with the physique of the user.
When Li Wenxuan thought of the masters of these official gentry families, he didn't dare to say that they were all full of brains, and they were also people who were not lacking in supplements under normal circumstances. If they take too much of the cold incense pill, even half a pill is likely to cause nosebleeds and continue to have fever caused by overtreatment. If you want to do more than that, you're going to die.
Since he didn't want to make trouble and find trouble, Li Wenxuan wanted to concentrate on dealing with Lin Zhengbei. Only by cleaning him up can the long-standing resentment and imbalance in his heart be dissipated.
"Brother Wen Xuan, what do you think of tonight's dishes?" Zhao Tian'er, who saw him eating happily, asked casually.
"Not bad. As soon as you eat it, you know that this should not be the kitchen that you and Mei Niang personally went to. Li Wenxuan, who could eat the taste of the dish, smiled.
"You're a good eater." Su Meiniang, who had already tried the cooking skills of the cuckoo, if she hadn't recognized her, she wouldn't have casually brought the other party's fried dishes to the table.
Zhao Tian'er, who took a large piece of fish meat, first removed the fish bones from one of her empty bowls, and then sandwiched them into Li Wenxuan's rice bowl, and asked with a sweet smile: "Brother Wenxuan, do you think that I, Sister Su, and Du Juan, who has better cooking skills?" ”
"Each has its own characteristics, each has its own strengths, and each has its own merits." Li Wenxuan, who sent the fish meat into the innermost part in one bite, did not worry at all that there were residual fish bones in the fish, and commented very objectively.
"Brother Wen Xuan, you are so cunning." Zhao Tian'er, who thought he was playing tricks, pouted and sneered.
Li Wenxuan, who didn't make any excuses, felt that the little girl was going to start messing around again. However, I really like her character with a little woman. He always felt that no matter whether it was a girl or a woman, she had to be coquettish in front of men from time to time, and that was what made her cute.
Peony, who walked in with a pot of mushroom lean meat soup in both hands, came to the table and carefully placed the soup in the middle of the table. Li Wenxuan, who casually glanced at her, asked casually, "Who is this?" ”
"Isn't this one of the three slaves I just bought? Now, her name is Peony. The maid in the sweet room. Su Meiniang understood that he couldn't recognize his own slave who was dressed and dressed neatly for a while.
The peony that consciously took a step back made a very standard gesture towards Li Wenxuan: "The slave has seen the master." Li Wenxuan, who heard the word "master", was really unaccustomed to it for a while, after all, he was used to being shouted by Zhao Tianer and Su Meiniang on weekdays, one Wenxuan brother, and one Wenxuan. If she calls herself son-in-law, she will be more comfortable than calling him master.
Li Wenxuan, who temporarily put down the chopsticks in his hand, looked back and forth at Zhao Tian'er and Su Meiniang, who were sitting on his left and right, and quipped: "She has called me master, so should I call you Miss and Mrs." ”
Zhao Tian'er, whose face was a little red, felt that this name was not right, so she was embarrassed and didn't say much, but Su Meiniang said generously: "According to your meaning, do you want the slaves and maids in the family to be called Miss Slave and Mrs. Tian'er?" ”
Li Wenxuan, who laughed, stroked his chin and joked, "It's okay to do this." It's really not easy for me to have a daughter as big as you all of a sudden. Come, Mei Niang, be good, obedient, call Dad to listen. ”
Seeing that he was not doing right, Su Meiniang pretended to be anemic and dizzy, and said with a smile: "If you die without conscience, you can think of it." If you really dare to respond, then the slave family will dare to call you father. ”
The peony standing on the side was also confused by what they said, and worried that she would be punished for making mistakes in the future, so she asked in a low voice: "In the future, what should I call you?" ”
