Chapter 339

Xiao Wenxuan returned to the bedroom, and Su Muling instructed Mama Chen to pour out the cold water and replace it with a hot one.

Xiao Wenxuan took off his coat and went into the bathtub, and Su Muling picked up a cotton handkerchief to gently wipe his back for him.

"Why don't you ask me what they're here for?" Xiao Wenxuan closed his eyes and the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned.

Su Muling raised his eyebrows: "If you want to tell me, you will say it without asking." ”

Xiao Wenxuan smiled, opened his eyes and pulled her in front of him. "Do you remember Shao Yi, the uncle of the fourth prince, who has a nitrate mine hidden in Ling County?"

"Nitrate? You seem to have told me. Nitrate is one of the important raw materials for making black powder. The emperor was furious when he found out, the Shao family secretly hid nitrate, bought a large amount of sulfur, and the private soldiers in the villages on the outskirts of Lingxian County, the emperor thought that the Shao family had the heart to support the army and rebel. So the Shaw clan was exterminated. ”

"Yes, I sent Li Feng to Lingxian to steal Shao Yi's letters. asked Su Han to steal Ding Tiancheng's letter. Then have people imitate their handwriting to make a few fake letters. Didn't Ding Tiancheng want to be unfavorable to the Su family, I told him that life was better than death. ”

"What are you going to do?" Su Muling looked at him excitedly.

Xiao Wenxuan stretched out his arm and carried her into the water, kissed her on the red lips, and chuckled: "Let him be the substitute ghost of the four princes." ”

"Let the emperor think that the nitrate mine is his?" Su Muling hugged his neck and his eyes lit up.

Xiao Wenxuan nodded: "Yes, it is a capital crime to possess nitrate ore privately." ”

"Count Song Mingjie as well." If you break your leg and don't forget to worry about the Su family's things, you should die.

"Keep him for now, and you can use it later!" After saying that, he leaned down and grabbed her lips......

Su Muling slept until nearly noon before dragging his sour body up. Xiao Wenxuan was not there, and Pomegranate said that he went out in disguise.

Su Muling simply ate lunch and took the pomegranate to the shops for a walk.

She finally came to Qihuju, and Zhang Yan was also there.

Seeing that the owner was back, Zhang Yan hurriedly let people into the backyard hall. Holding a stack of ledgers and a box of silver tickets, Zhang Yan stood aside.

"Shopkeeper Zhang, please take a seat, how is the business recently?" Su Muling politely gave up his seat and opened the account book.

"The jewelry sent by the eldest lady is now a tenth of the stock left." Zhang Yan sat down in front of Su Muling.

"Oh, what's left?"

Zhang Yan took out one from the pile of ledgers beside him and handed it to Su Muling.

"The rare jade has basically been sold out, leaving only agate, pearls and tortoiseshell."

There is no shortage of rich people in the capital, and the more expensive and better things will be sold.

"What about the other shops?" Su Muling looked at the account book and asked again.

"Business in other shops is generally good. Although the shop has not been open for a long time, it is profitable. ”

Su Muling put down the account book and said, "From tomorrow, you want to transfer all the shops out." Those that can be sold are sold together with the shop, and those that can't be sold are rented out. The things of Qiwuju are sold as much as they want, and the rest is packed and brought back to Songjiang. ”

Zhang Yan was surprised: "What? What happened? ”

Su Muling smiled: "It's okay, it was forced by the situation to buy a shop to do business." Now that I'm leaving the capital, the shop is useless. It's best to recover the cost, and it doesn't matter if you can't get it back. ”

Zhang Yan breathed a sigh of relief: "Yes." ”

"Give you a month. Is it enough? ”

Su Muling knew that it would take a month to process the goods and find the right person to sell, and it was really nervous.

Zhang Yanlu pursed his lips and said in a half-eyed manner: "I'll do my best." ”

"Okay, I'll take the ledger back and look at it. I live in Sycamore Lane, and come there to find me. ”

Su Muling got up, and Pomegranate shook off the cloak in his hand and draped it over her. Then he held the ledger and the silver ticket in his arms.

After Zhang Yan sent her out, he turned around and said a few words to the counter, and went to the shop next to him.

When Su Muling returned home, Xiao Wenxuan hadn't come back yet, so he asked Pomegranate to put away the silver ticket, Su Muling climbed onto the kang and began to read the account book.

I don't know how long I watched it, but she only saw that her eyes were numb and swollen, so she closed her eyes and lay down on her back.

"Miss, do you want to go to a restaurant outside for dinner?" Pomegranate came in to add her tea, and asked by the way.

Su Muling raised her mouth in her mother's house, and the cooking skills of the cook at home were average, Su Muling didn't eat much for lunch, and Pomegranate was afraid that she would be hungry.

"I'm out there." Xiao Wenxuan arrived before he arrived.

Su Muling was overjoyed in her heart and quickly got up.

Xiao Wenxuan walked over with a smile and kissed him lightly on the head. When he walked away, Su Muling had a small package in his arms.

"This?"

Looking at the familiar color and size of the package, Su Mu Lingle was happy: "Have you returned to the palace?" ”

Xiao Wenxuan washed his hands, took a handkerchief and came to sit down beside her: "This is the bride price I gave you." ”

Su Muling opened the package, looked at the thick silver ticket and smiled evilly: "You are my son-in-law, you don't need so many dowries." ”

"Too much? Then I'll give it to someone else. Xiao Wenxuan is about to rob.

Su Muling slapped his hand away and glared at him: "You dare." Pomegranate, find a box to put away. ”

Su Muling handed the package to Pomegranate.

"Yes."

Pomegranate took the package and widened her eyes: so heavy? This uncle is from an extraordinary background, and the silver tickets are all packed in packages.

Xiao Wenxuan brought too many silver tickets, and ordinary boxes couldn't fit at all. Pomegranate entered the inner room and began to look for a suitable box.

Listening to the sound of pomegranates turning over boxes and cabinets, Su Muling suddenly had a brainstorm.

She leaned closer to Xiao Wenxuan, and asked in a mysterious whisper, "Can you ask Chen Sheng from Huai'an's side?" ”

Xiao Wenxuan was puzzled, blinking his long eyelashes and questioning: "What do you want him to do?" ”

Su Muling pulled his arm closer again, and lowered his voice: "Have you forgotten Chen Sheng and Pomegranate in the previous life?" ”

Xiao Wenxuan suddenly realized, he glanced in the direction of the pomegranate, and fell on his back.

Su Muling dragged a pillow and stuffed it under his neck, and continued to lie on him: "I want to find a good in-law for a few girls according to the direction of the previous life. Wuying and Xichun don't bother, the two of them are already secretly in their hearts. Pomegranate is a big grinning and fiery temper, and only Chen Sheng can tolerate her, how about it? Can you come? ”

Su Muling's serious planning at this time made Xiao Wenxuan really in love.

He reached out and pressed her against himself and agreed, "Okay, but it's easy to be personal, what's the reason?" ”

Su Muling straightened up and rolled his eyes: "Let's just say that there is a shortage of manpower when you go out." Huai'an owes you a favor and will definitely agree. ”

Xiao Wenxuan smiled happily when he saw her calculating against Wei Huai'an: "If he knew that you calculated him like this, he wouldn't regret helping you in the first place." ”

Su Muling also smiled a little embarrassedly: "No way." Fortunately, I didn't owe him a debt of life in this life. ”

"By the way, there are also Sifeng, I want to bring Sifeng with me this time. You still have Su Han and Li Feng left in your hand, which one do you think is suitable? ”

Xiao Wenxuan couldn't help laughing: "You want to turn the people around me into your people." ”

Su Muling pouted and coquettishly said: "They have followed me since childhood, and I am reluctant to let them marry outside." What if the married person treats them badly, beats and scolds them, and suffers hardships? Only the one who marries you can guarantee that they will live well and that I can keep them with me. ”

"I want to take Su Han away. Li Feng, I will stay in the capital. ”

Xiao Wenxuan reached out and rubbed her thumb lightly on her red lips, her eyes full of pity. Su Muling's eyebrows fluttered, and she opened her mouth to bite the thumb he had placed on her lips.

Xiao Wenxuan exaggeratedly shouted: "Ungrateful! …… Unloading and killing ......"

"That's not how the donkey barks, cluck!"

Su Muling laughed so hard that Xiao Wenxuan turned over and pressed her mouth to block her......

The Su family shop was transferred, and each shop hung out a sign for the transfer. Soon more than 20 days passed, and after Zhang Yan's eight-sided exquisite skills, four of the five shops were sold with a guaranteed capital. Only odd goods are left and there is no deal.

Being able to dispose of the goods with the shop in such a short period of time without losing any money, Su Muling was amazed at Zhang Yan's ability.

On this day, Xiao Wenxuan was teaching Su Muling to play chess, and Wei Huaian suddenly came to visit Wutong Lane alone.

Let people into the hall, Su Muling greeted him, and after a few polite words, he entered the house, leaving pomegranates in and out to serve them tea and water.

Wei Huai'an waited for the pomegranate to go out, stretched his neck and leaned in front of Xiao Wenxuan and whispered mysteriously: "What you asked me to hand over, I asked my father to present it." The emperor was shocked when he saw it and ordered a thorough investigation. As a result, a nitrate mine was found in the suburbs of Lingxian County. ”

Master Li of the Criminal Department searched the principal's home on the spot and found several letters between him and Ding Tiancheng. Master Li took the letter and interrogated him on the spot, and the man couldn't stand the torture and confessed that Ding Tiancheng was the owner of the nitrate mine. Master Li took the evidence to seal the mine and took people back to the capital. ”

"Just now, the emperor ordered Ding Tiancheng's house to be raided."

A smile appeared on the corner of Xiao Wenxuan's mouth, and he sneered: "Ding Tiancheng is ambitious, and he has developed a lot of wings over the years. If you look closely, you will gain a lot. ”

At this moment, there was the sound of footsteps in the house.

Su Muling opened the curtain and said with a smile: "The prince sits down first, I have something to go out, so I won't accompany you." Su Muling said and was about to leave.

Xiao Wenxuan stopped her: "Ling'er, where are you going?" ”

Su Muling glanced at Wei Huai'an, grabbed Xiao Wenxuan's shoulder and whispered, "Go and see the house." ”

Xiao Wenxuan was stunned in place, what's so nice about copying the house?

"Drop by and order a drink."

Su Muling threw down another sentence and walked briskly.

Wei Huai'an stared at Xiao Wenxuan for a long time, and suddenly asked, "Do you really want to wander the world with her?" ”

Xiao Wenxuan glared: "There are no rules." She is your sister-in-law, who has worshipped heaven and earth. ”

Wei Huaian pouted: "Don't forget, your surname is Xiao, you are a royal person, and your marriage is not up to you." ”

Xiao Wenxuan walked to the unfinished chessboard and sat down, picked up a black spot and dropped it. disdainfully retorted: "From the day I was rescued by her, Xiao Wenxuan has been dead." My name is Zhen You'an now. ”

Wei Huai'an also got up and sat down opposite him, and took out a white piece to cut off his back road. "You and her are leaving, but it's like this game of chess, there is no way out."

Xiao Wenxuan smiled: "In my life, I am like this chess piece, I have no ego and am at the mercy of others." She was the one who gave me a new lease of life and allowed me to enjoy a bright future. How could I allow myself to be trapped in this cage again, to live that dark and gray life? ”

"But if the emperor knows about this, not only you, but even the Su family will be unprotected." Wei Huai'an looked at him worriedly.
