Chapter 111: The Wife of a Wealthy Family in the Republic of China (6)

Although Ye Chenxiao said that she would stay as his shield and deal with the old lady who hugged Sun's heart, she still had other places to rely on his power, and it was necessary to curry favor.

At breakfast, Mrs. Ye looked at a table full of colorful breakfasts and was pleasantly surprised, "Who made this?" Looks pretty good. After speaking, he directly sandwiched a meat bun.

Ye Chenxiao also sandwiched a spring roll, which tasted really good. He has never been particular about eating, as long as he can fill his stomach.

Yue Xuanzheng walked over with a big bowl of millet porridge and smiled, "Old lady, what do you think?"

"You did it?"

Yue Xuan nodded shyly, "Hmm." Do whatever you want, I don't know if the old lady likes it?"

Old Madam Ye nodded with satisfaction, "Yes, it looks very appetizing." It's just a few of us eating, isn't it too wasteful? In the past, in the countryside, we were hungry. And it also costs money. ”

"The old lady taught me a lesson. If the old lady doesn't care, let Adjutant Hong and them come in to eat together, and have a good time. Yue Xuan lowered his eyebrows and was pleasing to his eyes, and his delicate eyebrows and eyes became more and more well-behaved and lovely.

made Mrs. Ye feel more love in her heart.

"Adjutant Hong!"

Ye Chenxiao gave an order, and Adjutant Hong, who was standing at the door, was in high spirits, and hurriedly ran in to pick up the dishes and chopsticks and eat.

That's called a gobble, swallowing thousands of miles like a tiger.

Soon it was a mess.

Let Ye Chenxiao regret calling them in a little, it was like a wolf entering the sheepfold!

"Report to the Commander, we're done eating!" Those soldiers were all clever ghosts, and when they saw that the situation was not right, they wanted to escape.

"Humph! It's really finished! Ye Chenxiao's face was cold, and he was angry.

Yue Xuan lowered his head and held back a smile, these soldiers were quite humorous. She only has six normal people's food here, but five are five big and three thick soldiers, so the amount of food is naturally large, and it is estimated that she is not full. Especially the youngest one, he stuck out his tongue and licked it.

Yue Xuan beckoned to Xiaoxi, leaned into her ear and muttered a few words, Xiaoxi nodded, and went down quickly.

After Ye Chenxiao finished reprimanding, when they were about to leave, a little girl stuffed two steamed buns into their hands, and the aroma of meat in them was mouth-watering.

The young soldier began to wipe away tears.

"What's going on?" Yue Xuan was puzzled.

The soldier sobbed a few times and said in a local accent: "I think of my brother, he fought on the front line, the conditions were difficult, and I don't know if I can eat enough." Now that the war is tight, the salaries are tight, and the commander does not allow us to collect taxes from the people, and those rich people do not give money just by talking, if this continues, the soldiers will not have enough to eat, and those foreign invaders will attack us. ”

Yue Xuan's face was solemn, she knew that it was not only Shanghai now, but also the whole of China. The vast majority of Shanghai's economic lifeline is in the hands of the four major families, but they are all mercenary businessmen. In business, even if the national crisis is at the head, interests come first.

Hum! Without the backing of a strong state, the powerful means are just groveling in the hands of others and surviving for a long time.

"How much is missing?" Yue Xuan asked.

The soldier was stunned for a moment, and quickly replied: "The more the merrier." ”

"The more the merrier." Yue Xuan raised his head and thought seriously for a moment, "I have a way, but I don't know if it's feasible?"

Adjutant Hong sneered, "We can't help it, what can you do as a woman?" was glared at by Ye Chenxiao's eyes, and lowered his head in amusement.

Ye Chenxiao was interested, "You say! ”

"Although I have never read any books, I have heard my grandfather say that when you go to the army, you must attack your heart, and you must not be brave. Instead of waiting for them to show kindness, let them send money willingly. Yue Xuan's tone was calm, his eyes were bright, and he was a bit of a general.

Where is this young woman who has lived in the boudoir for a long time?

Suspicion flashed in Ye Chenxiao's eyes, and his gaze became more and more aggressive.

"It's easy to say, how do you get them to send money?" Adjutant Hong's eyes were contemptuous, he didn't believe that the other party could do anything.

"Don't worry. As the saying goes, fight cattle across the mountains, knock on the mountains and shake the tigers. They knew that Commander Ye was a person who was strict with military orders and strict self-discipline, so they were so foolish. The rise and fall of the world is the responsibility of the husband, and the world has its own public opinion. Don't underestimate the literati.

Second, the neighboring provinces of Shanghai are under the jurisdiction of the warlord Yu General, who is rigid and self-serving, happy with great achievements, greedy for money and lustful, and plucks goose everywhere he goes. The generals below are even more evil, and the people there are not having a good time. Why didn't the commander invite this person to Shanghai to discuss joint operations against the aggressor, and after the matter was completed, he would be the main leader? In this way, even if they have a lot of money, they must be able to keep it. ”

Ye Chenxiao's eyes were shocked, watching Yue Xuan finish these words unhurriedly, and there was a storm in his heart, "This is what you think?" What kind of woman did he save?

Yue Xuan smiled shyly, "It's a little bad, you can add it." ”

Adjutant Hong was indeed amazed by the other party's words, "Wouldn't it lead the wolf into the room if it's just like this?" Our equipment is not as good as theirs. ”

"The strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, and General Yu is unpopular, and the officials below naturally have patriots. Good birds choose trees to perch, and virtuous ministers choose their masters. Commander Ye's words and deeds are known to everyone in the world for the people and the country. General Yu's subordinates defected, and the troops and equipment in his hands were naturally captured, which was faster than planning slowly. ”

To put it bluntly, it is the Ming Xiu plank road to darken Chen Cang and cut off the beard.

This made Adjutant Hong's blood boil when he said this, "Wonderful! That's a great idea! ”

Yue Xuan originally thought that Adjutant Hong was a person of five big and three coarse, but he learned from the other party that his ancestor was the champion of the dynasty, and he had studied in Germany.

Yue Xuan tried to find a trace of the literati breath from the other party's full beard, but in vain. However, Adjutant Hong was a little embarrassed, thinking that the other party was taking a fancy to him, and Commander Ye's fierce gaze made him even more creepy.

"Good!" Final word.

Ye Chenxiao has always been a resolute person.

Soon released the news, General Yu got the telegram, and he was very excited, and it hit him. He was thinking about how to annex Shanghai, and when he fell asleep, he sent a pillow.

Yue Xuan walked out of the door, she looked at herself carefully, and her makeup was indeed a little old-fashioned. The original owner was only twenty-four years old, and Xiao Ya was twenty-eight years old, dressed beautifully, and looked very young, really not like a woman who had given birth.

So it all starts with appearances.

After all, she still has a tough battle to fight today.

Yue Xuan carried a small bag, took Xiaoxi, and went to the barber shop to perm his fluffy curly hair, which was neatly pulled up, revealing a smooth forehead. A pair of gentle eyebrows and eyes, a fair-skinned and delicate little face, with the calm atmosphere of everyone's ladies, and the delicate and lovely of a small jasper.

Yue Xuan looked at himself in the mirror, it was the first time he had seen himself so harmless.

"Miss, how is this dress?" As soon as the clerk saw Yue Xuan's dress, he knew that he was a rich man, and his attitude became more and more enthusiastic.

"That's it!" Yue Xuan picked out a sleeveless champagne-colored cheongsam, and after changing it, his skin became more and more fair, his body was slim, and his thin waist was not full.

"Miss is really a good eye." The clerk couldn't hide his amazement, and the other female customers also said yes when they saw it, and asked the clerk to bring one for themselves.

But even if the same style is worn on his body, it is not commensurate, and the pearl and jade are in front, and he has to give up without the original charm.

Yue Xuan smiled at a rich lady and said: "Madame has a plump figure, and her complexion is as white as Yang Guifei's favorite lychee, and this improved purple cheongsam shows Madame's elegant and noble temperament." ”

Mrs. Fu's face is happy, and women always like to be complimented, and the same is true for Mrs. Yang, who is the tax collector.

"Really? Then I'll try. Mrs. Yang gave it a try, and sure enough, as the other party said, it was very in line with her temperament, and her waist was loose, so she didn't have to hold her breath when she walked, and she was beautiful and not tired, which was really good.

"Yes, yes." Mrs. Yang was very satisfied with this dress, and proudly asked the sisters to take a look, and they all felt that Mrs. Yang had a vision, and they also asked Yue Xuan to show her clothes.

Yue Xuan naturally wouldn't let them down.
