Chapter 105: The Huang Family Shows Favor
"I'm going to be blind." Wei Jin closed the box and sighed.
"It's useless, let's return this thing." She called Wei Zan and showed the things to the other party, "It's inconvenient for me to come to the door, so I'm going to ask Brother Azan to go." ”
Wei Zhan's face was also wonderful, he had lived in vain for more than 20 years, and he had never seen such an arrogant gift-giving method. Even if it is a royal reward for a noblewoman, it is a great gift to have two or three of them.
"I'm afraid this box has emptied the inner library of the Zhennan Mansion?" With a faint complaint, Wei Zan got up and asked people to pack up the box, "I'll go back, so as not to have too many dreams at night." ”
They will accept ordinary gifts, and just turn their heads and add one or two percent to return the gift. But this box, with all due respect, although the Wei family can't afford it, if they want to make up this amount, they have to hurt their muscles and bones.
Wei Zan sent people out with the box, and on the way he met the housekeeper of the He family who hurriedly came to find him.
"Young Master Zhan, when the eldest young master heard a piece of news, he ordered the servant to inform him."
After the housekeeper whispered the news about the little grandfather that Young Master He had heard, Wei Zhan's face sank slightly.
"I'm just going to the Zhennan Mansion, the housekeeper will rest here first, and I'll discuss it when I come back."
Steward He let out a "huh", stepped aside, and watched Wei Zan walk out quickly, followed by a servant who struggled to hold a wooden box that was not too big.
He only glanced at it, and then followed the Wei family's steward to the side courtyard to wait.
Wei Jin didn't know what Wei Zan told the little grandfather, it is said that he didn't even see each other, so he left the box and came back.
Later, the little grandfather didn't force it to be sent over again, but he just asked people to make up a lot of food and clothing things.
Wei Jin didn't care, she put all her mind on the banquet on the second day.
Guests don't come too early. It was the eldest lady of Dongfeng Pavilion, who led the girls in the pavilion to the Wei family early in the morning.
Wei Jin would not treat them harshly, and a small side courtyard closest to the water pavilion was cleaned up in advance, and it was very elegantly furnished, specially for the girls in the pavilion to rest.
There is a path from the small courtyard to the Jiuqu Bridge, a distance of about ten meters, which is the most suitable.
In addition to the Water Pavilion Pavilion, Wei Jin also deliberately cleaned up the two largest guest houses, after all, the banquet will not be short of drinks, some girls are born with no alcohol strength, and it is not good to sit dizzy, and the guest house is for them to rest temporarily.
It is said that it is a guest house, and it is more delicate and beautiful than the main courtyard of some people's homes. Even the spare bedding was the best to pick.
"The young lady of the Su family has been informed in advance that she can't come because of something, and among the female guests who come, only the Huang family can be on a par with the Duan family. You have a good look at these two courtyards, if the young lady of the Duan family of the Huang family wants to use them, don't get them together. Including other families that prefer two families on weekdays, you must also have a number in your heart. ”
Before welcoming the guests, Wei Jin brought the big girls and beat them again.
Lan Xiang and the maid in green clothes were each in charge of a courtyard. Among them, the maid in Tsing Yi offered her to serve Miss Duan's family.
"The third miss may not be too clear, the young lady of the Duan family sometimes makes a lot of requests, which are not easy to meet. If someone else comes, I'm afraid I won't be able to do this well. ”
Wei Jin glanced at her and bowed his head.
To her surprise, the earliest one was actually the young lady of the Huang family.
The Huang family is similar to the Su family, focusing on local development, but their main trading partners are the Nanyang island countries. It is said that it was the previous dynasty of the previous dynasty, the imperial court at that time opened the maritime trade, the Huang family was the first batch of families to go to the sea to do business, and later the struggle for the throne caused civil strife, the Huang family also used their own maritime trade ability, several times to avoid the war, the development of the Huang family's ancestral training is not to participate in any power struggle, only to do their own maritime business.
Of course, don't think that the Huang family is a businessman who can handle it at will. can dominate maritime trade for hundreds of years, the strength of the Huang family can only be said to be unfathomable, and even the Su family will not easily compete with the Huang family.
Miss Huang gave her face like this, and Wei Jin would definitely not take Qiao. When she heard that Miss Huang's carriage had arrived at the entrance of the street, she waited at the entrance of the middle courtyard with her sister.
The women's cars could be driven directly into the front of the courtyard, where there was a special area for horse-drawn carriages to be parked.
"Miss Wei San, Miss Wei Si, good day."
"Good day, Miss Huang Er. Who is this? ”
Before the post, he only said that Miss Huang Er would come, but he didn't say that he would bring someone here. Suddenly, there was a girl dressed similarly to Miss Huang, and she was not sure of her identity, so she didn't know how to call her.
"She is my cousin, my cousin's eldest daughter. Zhangzhou City, which I just arrived in yesterday, was too late, and I didn't have time to ask people to send a post over, no, I came over early to apologize to Miss Wei San. ”
"Oh, what are you talking about? It's too late for me to be happy when the distinguished guest comes, how can I blame it. Come in, I just have a headache and don't know the goods, Miss Huang Er has to help me. ”
Hearing Wei Jin's sudden words, Miss Huang Er was surprised, but a smile of interest appeared on her face.
"But if you get something good, you have to open my sister's eyes."
"I only know it's in the sea, but I can't tell the good from the bad. It just so happened that Miss Huang Er's family had a family history, so she had to help. ”
When they entered the room, they saw Miss He San lying on the table frowning and staring at the things on the table.
"What is this?" Miss Huang Er and her cousin also took a closer look, "Anemone? ”
In the sea, this thing is very common, Miss Huang Er has followed the elders of the family on the boat several times, and she is no stranger to sea anemones. But it was also the first time she had seen someone raise such a thing in a water tank.
"It's not easy to raise." Miss Huang Er hesitated and said.
Her cousin was upright and said that the anemone was going to die, and it was better to throw it out, otherwise it would stink.
"Miss Wei San, is someone deliberately playing tricks on you? Whoever sent it, how could he give it away. ”
Wei Jin was not easy to say, so he smiled but did not answer. Miss Huang Er knew that it was inconvenient for her to reveal, and when she saw what her cousin wanted to say, she quietly tugged at her sleeve and made a look to stop her from continuing.
"If Miss Wei San likes this, next time you go to my house to play, I will take you to the beach to see. There are a lot of them in my house, and there are also very beautiful small fish. ”
Although Taizhou is also close to the sea, unlike Zhangzhou, Miss He San is considered to be a family member and has never been to the sea to play. It's different when you sit on an offshore sea boat, and you can't see these beautiful little creatures at all.
"My cousin's house is on Sura Island, and it's a few days to get there by boat. If Miss Wei San wants to go, I will arrange it. ”
Wei Jin was very moved, but unfortunately she knew that she couldn't do what she wanted, after all, she represented the face of the Wei family at this moment.
Sihuaer looked at her sister, and then looked at her little friend who yearned for but was honest and silent, and didn't quite understand what was fun in the sea.
They had spoken for a while, and the maidservant came to report that the carriages of the three families were about to arrive.
Let Sihuaer and He San accompany the Huang family sisters, Wei Jin tidied up her dresses and went out again.
