Chapter 166: Worry
Jiang Beiyu and Feng Lanyu went back to Linhu Courtyard together, and it was just time for dinner, so Jiang Beiyu went directly to Feng Lanyu's side courtyard, and Feng Lanyu was not surprised.
Before the meal was delivered, the two sat at the table in the small courtyard and talked.
Feng Lanyu said without giving up: "The prince hasn't said yet, if you help you bring down the Soldiers and Horses, how can you thank me?" ”
Jiang Beiyu looked at Feng Lanyu and was speechless for a while.
He always felt that Feng Lanyu separated herself from the entire Hou Mansion, although she has now married into the Hou Mansion and is the envy of the world, but she doesn't seem to have a sense of belonging to the Hou Mansion.
No matter what she has done for the Hou Mansion now, it is just because she is in her current position and feels that she should do these things, so she does it, not because she regards herself as the future mother of the Hou Mansion and treats these as her family affairs.
The most obvious point is that she seems to be very short of money, if she is the head of the Hou Mansion and holds the Hou Mansion Zhongfei, how many silver taels she wants to take, the account office will give her it, she really doesn't need to tell herself about these conditions.
And she even went to sell beauty prescriptions.
Jiang Beiyu looked at Feng Lanyu, his expression was a little complicated.
He asked, "What benefits does Madame want?" ”
Feng Lanyu smiled and said unceremoniously: "I don't lack anything, why don't you pay me some hard money?" ”
As expected, it was asking for money again.
Jiang Beiyu: "......"
He frowned slightly, and said, "As far as I know, the Feng family is not in difficulty at present, what does Madam want to do when she asks for money?" ”
Of course, Feng Lanyu wouldn't tell him the truth, so he said casually: "Ah, that's the case, I think Hongxing Building is very good, and I want to buy it." ”
Jiang Beiyu: "......"
His expression became more complicated.
Hongxing Building, in fact, was opened by him, but few people know about it.
Unexpectedly, Feng Lanyu actually wanted to buy his Hongxing Building?
It's not impossible, Jiang Beiyu pondered, he gave her money, and then she took the money to buy his Hongxing Building, and in the end the money and the building were in the hands of the husband and wife, so it didn't hurt to give her money, she liked it, so let her toss it.
Jiang Beiyu thought about it and felt that there was no problem, so he nodded: "If Madame can really bring down the Soldiers and Horses, it can be regarded as a merit for the people to eliminate harm, since Madame wants benefits, I don't know if 10,000 taels is enough?" ”
Feng Lanyu's eyes immediately widened.
Ten thousand taels?
is worthy of being the prince of the Marquis of Wenchang's Mansion, and his shot is really generous.
Feng Lanyu was afraid that he would regret it, so he immediately nodded: "Enough!" Thank you, Shizi! ”
Jiang Beiyu looked at her sparkling eyes, sighed helplessly, and told Jiang Wen to get the money.
After Jiang Wen came out, he was still a little inexplicable, I don't know what kind of fun the husband and wife were playing, the young lady is now the mother of the Hou Mansion, and the entire Hou Mansion is hers, and she is still entangled with the prince of the world, what does it mean?
The prince is also good-natured and accommodating, and he doesn't understand the happiness of raising a daughter-in-law.
Feng Lanyu has a small abacus in her heart, she now has a huge deposit of 13,000 taels, with this money by her side, as long as she saves some flowers, she doesn't have to worry about it in this life.
Last time, Mrs. Feng said that she would go back to the south after the year, and she might be able to go with her.
With her identity, after leaving the Marquis Wenchang Mansion, she is definitely not suitable to stay in the capital.
Jiang Beiyu didn't know that Feng Lanyu was playing Xiao Jiujiu in her heart, and when she saw her holding her chin in a daze, she asked, "What is Madam thinking?" ”
Feng Lanyu's eyes rolled and looked at him: "What am I thinking about to bring down the soldiers and horses, I have received the money from the prince, of course I have to do something practical." ”
When Jiang Beiyu heard this, he couldn't help but want to laugh: "Madam doesn't have to be pressured, it doesn't matter if this thing is not done well, I have other ways." ”
He intuitively felt that those theft cases would not stand up to investigation, but it was difficult to say, if they were really investigated, the people above would be reckless and negligent in their duties, and they would put all the charges on the Command Department of the Soldiers and Horses Division and others, and it would still be difficult to shake those people above.
How this will be done still needs to be carefully pondered.
Feng Lanyu narrowed his eyes and said with bad intentions: "I can't hide it, I want to drag Jingninghou's Mansion into the water." ”
Jiang Beiyu raised his eyebrows and looked at Feng Lanyu in surprise.
"Madame has a plan?"
Feng Lanyu shook his head: "None." ”
Jiang Beiyu: "......"
Feng Lanyu looked at him, smiled, and said casually: "I just think that the old lady will definitely not let me go, for the sake of her own safety, so I decided to strike first and bring down the Jingning Marquis Mansion first." ”
The most effective way to screen out the danger is not to avoid the other party, but to get rid of the other party, not to mention that the other party is not a good person in the first place, and she does not need to be soft.
I also had this idea when dealing with Pingyang Bofu before.
Jiang Beiyu agreed with Feng Lanyu's words, thinking that in the past, the old marquis was because he was soft-hearted and did not have the heart to deal with those people, so it would lead to a backlash, and those who were murdered by those people were almost dead.
Jiang Beiyu said thoughtfully: "Madame is right, to deal with the enemy, you should strike first. ”
The two of them were talking, and the food from the kitchen was also delivered.
Usually, when the two of them eat together, the meals are basically the same, but tonight is a little different.
Feng Lanyu looked at the soup cup placed in front of Jiang Beiyu, and then looked at his own, although it was all chicken soup, the taste felt wrong.
She came over curiously, smelled the smell, and asked Jiang Beiyu, "Huh?" How does chicken soup taste different today? Do you have injuries on your body? ”
She remembered that the chef in the kitchen had been in the Wenchang Marquis Mansion for decades and knew medicinal food very well, and if Jiang Beiyu was injured, the chef would stew medicinal soup for him according to his injury, internal injury or external injury.
A few days ago, she had a scar on her forehead, and the kitchen stewed her all the medicinal food for beauty, saying that it was good for her skin to drink it.
Jiang Beiyu shook his head, picked up the spoon and took a sip, and said, "No, it may be a new dish." ”
After all, meals are also divided into men and women, which is normal.
When the ordinary kitchen maid heard this, she covered her mouth and smiled, and said to Feng Lanyu: "Young lady, today's master's chicken soup is stewed in one pot, but the young lady's chicken soup is filled with red dates and ginseng slices, the third young master's is added with walnut kernels and pine nuts, and the prince's is added with deer antler wine." ”
Jiang Beiyu's hand holding the spoon was stunned, and his face turned dark.
Feng Lanyu sighed: "Ah, I really have a heart, the third young master has been doing a lot of homework recently, and he really needs to make up for his brain." ”
As she spoke, she looked at Jiang Beiyu meaningfully, and stopped talking: "Shizi, drink more, it's good for your health." ”
The corners of Jiang Beiyu's mouth twitched, he also glanced at Feng Lanyu meaningfully, silently put down the spoon, and picked up the chopsticks to eat.
Why did the kitchen cook this soup for him, and serve it in front of her, what did it mean, didn't she understand?
The chef watched Jiang Beiyu grow up, and he didn't know what was going on recently, and he always cooked some inexplicable dishes for him in his daily meals.
The matter of the prince and his wife living in the two courtyards has long been known to the people of the entire Hou Mansion, and from time to time someone breaks their hearts for the two of them behind their backs.
When will the prince and his wife have a round house, it has become the heart disease of almost every old servant.
Even Manager Jiang had to inquire about Jiang Hu from time to time, and his hair was a few more gray.
It's really hard for them.
