Chapter 220: How could he be reluctant to make Nan Jiaojiao lose face?
was watched by the wealthy businessmen and gentry and powerful families of the entire Shu County, and Nan Baoyi's cheeks were hot.
Some Shujin merchants who usually look at the Nanjia unpleasantly have fallen into the ground:
"Is the Nan family defeated? How did this father and daughter eat and take it! ”
"The richest man in the house actually only donated two taels of silver, and said that he was a good family of goodness? Could it be that the previous reputation was obtained by deceiving the people? ”
"It seems that this time the imperial merchant quota belongs to the Zou family. Congratulations to Boss Zou! ”
"Where, where! Hahaha! ”
Nan Yan shook the fan lightly, also smiling.
Seeing Nan Baoyi's bad luck, she was happy in her heart.
Behind her, the noblewoman turned her head to ear:
"Hey, last time I went back to the night banquet of Xue's Villa, Nan Yan also went, but she was reluctant to donate jewelry, and in the end, Cheng Gongzi couldn't see it and forced her to donate a hairpin. It seems that Nan Yan's stinginess is inherited from her father! ”
"Look at Nan Yan, she is embarrassed to laugh, not ashamed but proud, she is so thick-skinned!"
Nan Yan: "......"
Isn't it good to laugh at Nan Baoyi?
Why get involved with her!
Xue Mei gloated: "Two taels of silver, it's a joke to say!" Last time in the snow disaster, Nan Baoyi took people to repair the houses and give porridge and grain for the people in the house, I thought she was generous, but it turned out to be nothing more than that. Two taels of silver, her father can get it! ”
The ridicule was endless.
Fine sweat broke out on Nan Baoyi's white and tender forehead.
She sat back in place silently and pulled Xiao Yi's wide sleeve, "Second brother, borrow your sleeve for use." ”
She buried her little face deep in his sleeve.
Xiao Yi's thin lips pursed into a light smile.
The little girl was ashamed to burrow into his wide sleeves, like a quail buried in his head.
He said gently: "In ancient times, there were arrows in the sleeves, but now Benhou has a little beauty in the sleeves......"
"Second brother, I've lost all my face!"
The lights are bright, and the young phoenix eyes are gentle.
How could he be willing to embarrass Nan Jiaojiao?
He clapped his hands twice.
Shi Ku and the others escorted a large mahogany box and stepped into the hall.
The wooden box is affixed with a neat seal, and the handwriting of the dragon flying and the phoenix dancing is written "Nanfu Disaster Relief Silver".
Standing under the hall and saying loudly: "On the order of the old lady of the Nan family, I specially sent 880,000 taels of snowflake silver to relieve the people of Shu County." Please check it overseer! ”
880,000 taels of snowflake silver!
Everyone in the hall gasped at the same time!
This is about to catch up with the share of all of them combined, and the Nan family is so generous!
Gu Chongshan, who had always poured spirits lightly, raised his eyes coldly.
He smiled with red lips and motioned for the little eunuch to accept.
It is no surprise that the quota of the imperial merchant was pocketed by the Nan family.
Nan Baoyi drilled out of his sleeves, his eyes were shining, "Second brother, it turns out that you and your grandmother have been prepared for a long time, which really worries me." ”
Xiao Yi was noncommittal.
The Nan family can do such a big business, of course, the news is very well-informed, and they have long known that Gu Chongshan came to Shu County this time to select the Shu Jin Imperial Merchant.
Disaster relief money or something, ready early in the morning.
Take 880,000 taels of silver, in exchange for the status of an imperial merchant, connect with the royal family, and reduce seventy percent of the tax, for the big businessmen who can do business, blood earns.
Xue Mei looked at the brother and sister and frowned dishappily.
Xiao Yi was originally her husband, why did Nan Baoyi spoil him?
She shook the fan and sneered: "It's already rich, but it's just a donation of some silver, as a matter of course, what is there to get?" ”
Nan Baoyi asked rhetorically: "Miss Xue said it easily, then have you donated money?" ”
Xue Mei was speechless.
She really didn't donate.
But so what, my father said that when the drought passes, he will take the merits of other people's disaster relief on her alone, ask the court, and canonize her as the county lord!
Nan Baoyi took in her expression, and turned to Gu Chongshan with a smile, "Nine thousand years old, I don't know, this eldest girl of the Xue family is a well-known disaster relief lady in Shu County, born with a delicate and kind heart, this drought is so fierce, Xue eldest girl will definitely take the lead and live up to the name of 'disaster relief lady'." ”
"Oh?"
Gu Chongshan drank half a glass of wine and smiled playfully, "Miss Xue, then you have to donate silver." ”
Xue Mei squeezed the jade handle of the fan tightly, and her face turned pale.
Gu Chongshan is a person close to the emperor, if the emperor knows that her name of "disaster relief lady" is fake, he will definitely not want to canonize her as the county lord.
She was angry in her heart, but she had to smile reluctantly: "Overseer, the little girl is willing to donate 20,000 taels of silver for disaster relief." ”
As he said this, his heart was dripping blood.
20,000 taels of silver is her own money that she has saved hard over the years.
Tonight, because of Nan Baoyi's words, it all came to naught!
She glared at Nan Baoyi.
Nan Baoyi relied on Xiao Yi's support and smiled fearlessly.
Xia Minghui helped Xue Mei, and said quietly: "Miss Nan doesn't think it's too much to force others to donate silver like this?" ”
"In his position, he seeks his government." Nan Baoyi said frankly, "Could it be that the name 'Disaster Relief Lady' was given for nothing? Speaking of which, Miss Xia and Miss Xue are close friends, and they must be as kind as her, but do you want to donate some? ”
This trick is too poisonous.
Xia Minghui was unwilling to give half of the copper plate, so she kept silent, and only lowered her eyes and drank tea quietly.
The girls who Xue Mei befriended were afraid that they would be blackmailed by Nan Baoyi, so no one dared to squeak.
Gu Chongshan fiddled with the ebony beads, looking at Nan Baoyi from a distance, his eyebrows and eyes were gloomy.
He said softly: "Jingxi Hou's sister, it's so interesting......"
His eyes were rather dangerous.
Nan Baoyi's little face stiffened slightly.
Xiao Yi thoughtfully handed her the wide sleeves, "Do you want to go in and hide?" ”
He liked the way Nan Jiaojiao hid in his wide sleeves.
……
After a lot of planning, the night banquet finally ended.
The carriages parked on the side of the street gradually dispersed, leaving only the moonlight on the street.
Nan Baoyi was about to board the carriage when a "slow" came from behind.
She looked back, Gu Chongshan stood on the steps, the navy blue embroidered smoke ripple official robe hunted and flying, the moonlight lower lip red teeth white, it was an extremely handsome posture.
His voice was hoarse: "Jingxi Hou's sister, what's your name?" ”
Nan Baoyi thought about it and replied generously: "Nan Baoyi." ”
"My mother chose the name for me, and I hope that someone will treat me like a jewel and have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of my life." She glanced at Xiao Yi, who was stepping on the horse, and smiled, "Nine thousand years old, in this life, many people treat me like a jewel, and I am very happy." ”
Her eyes seemed to be sprinkled with tiny stars, and they were amazingly bright.
Gu Chongshan's eyes darkened.
A sudden, dull pain in the heart.
It seems that in the distant past, I also knew such a girl.
It's just that the girl has been miserable all her life, and no one treats her like a jewel, and no one protects her without worrying about food and clothing......
Nan Baoyi lifted the gauze skirt and boarded the carriage, opened the bamboo curtain, and suddenly turned to Gu Chongshan again, "Nine thousand years old." ”
"Why?"
"May you be blessed every year, and everything will be auspicious."
The girl smiled sweetly and leaned into the carriage.
The past is like a dream, out of reach.
She was born because of Gu Chongshan and died because of Gu Chongshan.
The grudge entanglement with him, from now on, should only be written off.
