Jin Niang pondered the dowry in her heart, but when she looked up, she saw that Xu Erlang had fallen asleep leaning on the head of the bed without knowing when.

She paused, stepped forward slightly, and heard Xu Erlang snoring slightly. And on his handsome face like jade, there was a blue and black under his eyelids, and his face was still full of tiredness that could not be concealed, which showed that he was really tired during this time, otherwise, he would not have slept so quickly.

Jin Niang was naturally distressed, and she was not in the mood to say anything about the dowry at this time, so she removed Xu Erlang's boots and moved his legs and feet to bed. During this period, Xu Erlang opened his eyes and moved in obediently after seeing that it was her, and the person also lay flat. He beckoned to Jinniang, "Come up and rest." "Then don't wait for Jin Niang to get on. bed, he had slept again.

Jin Niang's distressed heart, I can't even mention it. really felt like her heart and liver were crushed, she lay on the bed and snuggled up to Xu Erlang, touched his thin body, and felt unbelievably distressed.

You said how good it is to be a comatose official, you don't have to worry about anything, just eat, drink and have fun. But to be a loyal minister, to be a parent official who loves the people like a son, it is really hard work every day. Not to mention that you always have to rush to the front line, but you must be a thousand times more tired. Just look at Xu Erlang, he usually eats a lot, but after coming to Hezhou, he didn't grow meat at all. Although he was good-looking, she took good care of it. In fact, not only did he not get fat, but he lost a lot of weight. I can't usually see it when I'm wearing clothes, but when I wipe my body, it's really a handful of ribs.

Jin Niang hugged Xu Erlang sadly, and was suddenly taken into Xu Erlang's arms. She thought she had woken him up, and immediately settled down. As a result, Xu Erlang just slapped her twice by reflex, and then fell into a deep sleep again.

When Xu Erlang got up the next day, Jin Niang knew it, but she thought about it the night before and slept too late, so that she couldn't open her eyes that were still sleepy. Seeing this, Xu Erlang slapped her twice, and Jin Niang fell asleep again. When I woke up, I heard the maids say that Xu Erlang got up on the third watch, got up and cleaned up after a simple breakfast, and then took a few little boys out of the city.

Jin Niang: "......" is sorry for those children. Let's just say that they came to Hezhou in a hurry as soon as they had a holiday, why did they come to Hezhou? Xu Erlang is the kind of person who is very serious, how can he see a few children wandering around and playing all day long with nothing to do. Now it's okay, I was dragged to "supervise the river", but I have something to do.

Jin Niang asked Xiao Yu'er, Brother Rong, triplets and Changle about the situation again. Xiao Yu'er is now in class, and so is Brother Rong; As for the triplets, they woke up and were held by the grandmothers to feed the supplementary food, and now each person can eat a small half bowl of egg custard, and their appetite is very good. As for Miss Changle, she is not at home today, and it is said that she has gone out to talk to people about business.

Jin Niang was surprised, "What kind of business are you talking about?" "She still believes that Changle is going to practice medicine, and it doesn't match Changle to talk about business.

Qing He said, "I don't know the specific slave maid, but I still heard the little maid below babble a few sentences, which seems to be related to the branch of the rouge shop." ”

Jin Niang didn't think much about it, and thought that it was one that wanted to buy from their house. This is not uncommon, after all, these rouge gouaches have been improved by Anlan, and now they work very well. There was a businessman who was particularly business-minded, and when the merchant came to Hezhou, he wanted to bring some rouge gouache to sell. These things are packed in small boxes, which do not take up space, and they are also very light to carry, which is very suitable for selling to other places.

There have been a few cases of this business, so it's no wonder that Jinniang didn't think about anything else.

She was also lazy, and after breakfast, she asked the grandmother to pick up the three little ones and tease them. When the three of them yawned, they slapped and coaxed them to sleep, and then the three little ones left, and then Jin Niang began to deal with the affairs of the house.

Jin Niang's life is leisurely, and her mood is very comfortable, but Changle's mood at the moment is a little unpleasant.

She was not happy to see Li Mingzhao again, but this person had no self-knowledge at all, and she was in a hurry to find her uncomfortable. Why did you send a shopkeeper to talk to him about the rent was insulting him, why did he insult him, and the shopkeeper of her rouge shop couldn't take it?

These words are a bit remarkable, which makes Changle not mention how angry he is.

She couldn't tell if she was angry because the shopkeeper was more upset, or because she had to meet more people she didn't like. After all, she just didn't feel good in her heart.

But this kind of unhappiness can't be seen by the family, otherwise it won't be good to trouble the aunt to tease her or worry about her. She is also unwilling to oppress people with power, forcing people to bow their heads, as if she is very uneducated.

It's not good like this, it's not good like that, but this matter has been dragging on for several days, and Changle is getting more and more depressed when he urges him tighter and tighter.

Yesterday, the brothers arrived, and Changle really wanted her brothers to deal with this matter for a moment. It's a pity that she just thought about it, and before she could figure out how to speak, her brothers were arrested by the second uncle and were going to the river to be exposed to the wind and sun......

What else can I do, I have to do it myself.

Changle also wanted to end this matter as soon as possible and calm down early, otherwise she would be depressed when she thought about this matter every day and thought of Li Mingzhao every day. It's not worth bothering about this person, let alone being disturbed by him, it's even more inappropriate, so let's end this matter as soon as possible.

With this kind of thought, Changle went out early this morning. She didn't let anyone send a letter to Li Mingzhao in advance, but it was such a coincidence that she had just arrived at the two-story building, and before she got off the carriage, she saw a figure turning from the corner of the street in the distance.

The man walked like a child, and the expression on his face was still a little unruly and gloomy, and he didn't look like a good person.

Changle was already stumped in his heart, and he said in his heart where did this come from. She hadn't asked anyone to send him a letter, but he was out in front of him, this fatal fate was really enough.

The person who turned around from the corner of the street was not Li Mingzhao, he raised his eyes and saw Changle jumping down from the carriage with his skirt, and he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows in surprise.

It is said that the early bird gets the worm, look, this old saying is the old saying, this truth is really true.

Normally, he was still sleeping in the house at this time, and who would have thought that he would get up and go out for a stroll today, and catch someone he wanted to arrest.

Li Mingzhao immediately stepped forward and looked down at Changle condescendingly, "Morning, Miss Xu." ”

Changle had a calm little face, and he didn't want to respond very much. But there were people on the street, and she couldn't do anything to hang them. Not only did it lose their share, but it also seemed that the girls in their Xu Mansion were very uneducated. She won't make a mistake and give someone a handle because of this little mustard.

Despite the reluctance of the new headquarters, Changle took a deep breath and returned Li Mingzhao's half salute.

Then she raised her head and said to Li Mingzhao, "It just so happens that I have something to find my son, since we have met now, let's talk about it." ”

Li Mingzhao asked knowingly, "What are you talking about?" ”

"Let's talk about rent increases."

Li Mingzhao pulled a long "oh" sound, "This matter, this matter is not in a hurry." I got up early today, and I haven't had breakfast yet, I don't know if Miss Xu has used it? If it's useless......"

Changle intercepted his words in time, "I went out after breakfast, so I won't bother my son." If Childe feels hungry, he can go to the meal first, and then come back to negotiate the rent without mentioning it. ”

Changle's tone unconsciously brought out a little contempt, didn't he say that this person was receiving the city gate, and he got up so late, what else should he deserve? Sure enough, it's the second generation who came down to experience just for gilding, and treats errands as fun, and goes if you want to go, don't you want to go?

In this way, this person is really far worse than her two brothers. The two elder brothers drove for more than ten days to come to Hezhou from the capital, but they rested for an afternoon, and got up on the third watch today to go to the river with the second uncle.

Although this trip was coerced by the second uncle, the result was good. At least in Changle's view, this is proof of the brothers' progress. Looking at this Li Gongzi again, Changle is reserved and doesn't say anything.

But if she doesn't say it, Li Mingzhao can't see it?

Changle is not a deep-minded person, on the other hand, because she is well protected by her family, she is very shallow-minded. Although it is not enough to be seen at a glance, it is almost the same.

No, Li Mingzhao saw the doubts and disagreements with him in Changle's eyes. What does she question him, what does she disagree with him?

Li Mingzhao immediately frowned. He felt uncomfortable, so he wanted to pull Changle and ask what was going on, but as soon as his hand stretched out, he saw Changle take a big step back vigilantly. At this time, Wen Qing, who was holding a box in his hand, also got off the carriage, and hurriedly blocked his own girl's side when he saw this, beware of this young man who didn't know where he came from.

"What do you do?" Wen Qing wanted to overwhelm people with momentum, and at the same time called Uncle Wang, who went to park the carriage, "Please bring me this box." ”

Everyone knows what this means, and for a while, Uncle Wang walked up to him in three or two steps with fear, and Li Mingzhao, his face was completely dark.

Li Mingzhao sneered, it was not the first time he had been treated as a thief, but this feeling, this feeling...... He clenched his fists, stared at Changle firmly, and said casually after a while, "The master is still going to the city gate to be on duty today, and I don't have time to discuss the rent with the girl, this matter is not in a hurry, and I will mention it later." ”

As he spoke, he turned his back and turned to leave.

Where is Changle allowed him to leave like this?

Doesn't his departure mean that she will have to see him again in the short term? Changle was unwilling, so he immediately called him and directly listed the conditions. "I heard the maid say that the rent of the shops here has increased by about 20 taels in a month, and we will directly give you a 30 tael increase, what do you think?"

Li Mingzhao paused as he took a step forward, turned his head coldly, stared at her immature cheeks, and snorted coldly, "The young master seems to be a person who is short of money?" ”

These words stopped Changle.

If you are not short of money, what rent do you raise? You have to let her master, come forward to negotiate, are you idle?

Changle brought it out on his face, and Li Mingzhao saw that the first Buddha ascended to heaven and the second Buddha was born. And he was somewhat annoyed by Changle's staring, and he also felt that his previous actions were indeed very inexplicable. Worried that Changle would think too much, and he was also worried about being seen something, his face immediately froze, and he casually dropped a sentence of "unreasonable". Then he snorted softly and walked away with stiff steps.

Changle was angry again. Why is she unreasonable?

How many words did she say from beginning to end? There are less than five sentences, and every word is not out of line, so in the end, the sentence inappropriately stabbed him, and provoked him to ridicule him like this.

Chang Leqi's eyes were red, and he was very aggrieved with his hands holding the handkerchief. This made Wen Qing's heart ache.

She took the box from Uncle Wang's hand and comforted her girl, "Don't be like that person. What kind of person, it's so impertinent, we don't have him, he talks so excessively, he is unreasonable. ”

Wen Qing said again, "We are also unlucky, why did we rent a house occupied by such a person." I have to deal with this person every month, but it's really a long life. Don't be angry, girl, let's find a broker and take a look around, maybe we can find the right one. ”

Wen Qing is also clever, and he guessed the identity of the young man just now from a few words from Changle Fang. It's a pity that she reacted a little late, otherwise, she would have thrown the box in her hand over.

She had heard Wenhua say that the young man had said something unpleasant to his girl last time, which made the girl cry angrily.

I met him again this time, and this young man is still the landlord of the small building they rented, this fate is really, bad fate!

Wen Qing regretted it at this time, he should have brought Wen Hua over today. In terms of force value, she is not as good as Wenhua, and the young man looks like she has also practiced, she is definitely not an opponent. If Wenqing comes, their sisters and sisters will work together, and they may be able to give the girl a breath. As for what will happen after beating people, Wen Qing didn't expect it. However, it is better to get out of the air first. After all, no matter what, the situation must be stronger than it is now - the girl was inexplicably bullied again, and was said to be "unreasonable", thinking of this Wenqing, he was angry, and he really hated to catch up and fight back.
