Cui's is not afraid that she will lose face in front of the noble girl, but she knows that she has no business skills, and she is unwilling to miss Du Baozhu's plan.

Du Baozhu didn't think so.

Now that the Du family is at a critical juncture of survival, if you don't push the Cui family, let her stand up and take care of the housework. In the future, when the emperor flees west to Chengdu, who will pull this stupid father who is loyal to the monarch and serves the country at home? Could it really be that Du Rang could take the family to death in a hurry?

Therefore, she ignored Cui's retreat, and her two white lotus-like arms were softly ringed around Cui's neck: "A-Niang, think about it carefully, you have to be from a famous family and have a good reputation, and you have a good vision and good popularity, who else in our family can do these two things besides you?" There's really no way to ask you to come here. ”

Her tone was soft, like a freshly steamed glutinous rice cake, sweet and sticky, which made Cui's heart soft and hot, and she couldn't help but feel relieved: "That...... I'll just try my best, shall I? ”

"Thank you, Auntie!" Du Baozhu didn't give Cui Shi a chance to regret it, and immediately pulled her to his small study, spread out the paper and planned carefully.

Early the next morning, the three concubines of the Du family gathered in the Yunhui Hall of the Du Mansion.

In fact, in the past few months, Zhou and Hu have been meeting and gathering with Cui's from time to time as usual. However, Du Baozhu was busy with business matters, so he met them less often.

As soon as they met today, she found that her second aunt Zhou had undergone a lot of changes.

"Jiaojiaoer." When Zhou saw Du Baozhu, he still smiled and hugged Du Baozhu into his arms as usual: "I haven't seen you for a few days, why have you lost a lot of weight?" Bai is still as white as before, as tender as tofu, I envy me. ”

It's just that her smile is much more reluctant than before, and even the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes seem to have a few more. She is obviously five or six years younger than Cui's, but at the moment, the two of them are sitting together, but Cui's looks like the small one.

Du Baozhu couldn't help feeling distressed, but he still pretended not to see it on his face, and pulled Zhou's coquettish with a smile: "How can I be thin, this is just right." ”

She is young now, and she doesn't have so many scruples about talking, but her childish words have made Zhou a lot happier. I met with Hu again, and a group of people sat down in the hall.

"Sister-in-law came to us today, but is there anything wrong?" Although Zhou's life is unsatisfactory, his cheerful temperament has not changed. As soon as the crow's head served tea, she quickly got down to business.

When Cui Shi heard this, he subconsciously looked at Du Baozhu, and was secretly pinched by Du Baozhu's palm, and then calmed down: "There is a matter that I want to ask you to help with." ”

Cui Shi whispered to reveal Du Baozhu's plan, and Zhou couldn't help but take Du Baozhu into his arms and rub two handfuls after hearing it: "My Jiaojiao'er, it's really amazing." I used to see you open a small tea shop, and I thought it was a joke. It's only been a few months, and you've gotten to this point! ”

"It's not enough to come up with rare things like martial arts tournaments and promotion tournaments, but you can also come up with such interesting ideas. I really don't know how your brain grows, how can you come up with so many ghost ideas that ordinary people can't think of? ”

Zhou loves Du Baozhu very much, and seeing her achievements is happier than making money in business. As he spoke, he took off the newly bought jade bracelet in his hand and gave it to Du Baozhu as encouragement.

Du Baozhu didn't have anything to do with Zhou's temper, so he had to solemnly ask Wen Xi to put the bracelet away. Only then did he return to the original topic: "Second aunt, there are few people in Chang'an who know more about makeup and hair accessories than you, I think it is most appropriate to leave this matter to you." ”

Zhou nodded with a smile: "Isn't it just to find a few more capable makeup grandmothers, this matter is on me." ”

Du Baozhu hit the idea on the three aunts early in the morning, and none of them were wasted. Seeing that Zhou agreed to her request, he looked at Hu with pity: "Third aunt, now that I can invite all the people I can invite, and there is still a 'grain and grass official' who mediates, you can have pity on me!" ”

Among the three concubines, Cui's is the niece of the famous Cui's family, and Zhou's background is not obvious but his pockets are bulging.

However, Du Baozhu remembered that Hu's father was a talented Confucian scholar. was banished to the history museum to cultivate history for a lifetime, completely because this Confucian scholar was too upright and couldn't tolerate sand in his eyes at all. Whether it is the Son of Heaven or an important minister, as long as there is something wrong, he will write an article and scold him, which is disliked by the Son of Heaven.

Probably because his father suffered a loss in his mouth, the third aunt Hu's mouth became very reliable. When the three concubines got together for recreation, their voices were barely audible. If it weren't for the three of them, she would have been completely ignored.

At this time, Hu Shi was named by Du Baozhu, and there was still not much emotion leakage on his cold face, but he nodded with a smile: "As long as you don't dislike the third aunt for being stupid, the third aunt will definitely help." ”

And that's it! Du Baozhu secretly worshiped his grandfather and grandmother in his heart, thanking them for teaching the Du family's family style so well, not being a demon or fighting, and helping the three families together in case of an accident!

Who knows, before the words of thanks were finished, the porter sent a servant: "Madam, the second master is here." ”

Now that Du Baozhu's grandfather and grandmother have passed away, Du Rangneng has become the master of the family. Then these two masters are naturally Du Baozhu's second uncle Du Yanlin.

The laughter in the room paused, and Du Baozhu subconsciously secretly looked at Zhou, only to see Zhou's eyebrows wrinkled slightly, but he quickly pretended to be nothing and looked into the distance.

She knew that Liu's purchase of Changle Liquor Store may not have been hidden from her second aunt, and she couldn't help sighing in her heart.

The second uncle, Du Yanlin, had already entered Yunhui Hall, and when he saw that Zhou's Hu was also there, a trace of discomfort flashed on his face: "Zhou's ...... Why are you here? ”

Zhou's lipstick-coated lips curled slightly, and a sarcastic smile appeared: "Naturally, my sister-in-law invited me here, what are you doing here?" ”

"I ......" Du Yanlin unconsciously avoided the side: "I haven't seen Jiaojiao'er for a long time, I'll come and see her." ”

As he spoke, he bent down to tease Du Baozhu: "Jiaojiao'er, now that you have a lot of scenery, the second uncle has heard your majestic deeds in the academy." ”

Because the Jinshi in the Tang Dynasty was very difficult to take the exam, there were many people who couldn't pass the exam in their fifties, so Du Yanlin is still studying in the academy today.

Du Baozhu had already classified himself as the second aunt's camp, and when he saw Du Yanlin, he didn't have a good face, and after saluting and calling 'second uncle', he obediently sat on his stool and loaded wood.

Du Yanlin was embarrassed by Du Baozhu, and touched the tip of his nose in embarrassment, and it was difficult to say what he wanted to say, so he could only gossip with Cui's and Hu's two people.

Zhou looked at it coldly, and the irony on his lips became thicker and thicker.

When Du Baozhu saw it, she knew that it was inconvenient for the adults to say something in front of her, so she took the initiative to jump off the stool: "I almost forgot, I made an appointment with Shopkeeper He to discuss things!" ”

Cui Shi breathed a sigh of relief: "Then you go early and return early, be careful on the road." ”

Du Yanlin was a little reluctant, he came with a mission today. If you can't get Du Baozhu's letter, how will you face the Liu family when you go back?

Thinking like this, he scooped up the corners of his robe and stepped to catch up with Du Baozhu: "Which way is Jiaojiao'er going?" If it's a stop, the second uncle will give you a ride! ”

He is an elder with long legs, and before Du Baozhu refused, he had already walked to Du Baozhu's side.

Looking back at Yunhuitang, and seeing that the Zhou family didn't chase him out, he bowed down and said in Du Baozhu's ear: "Jiaojiao'er, the second uncle has something to discuss with you." ”

Du Yanlin and Du Rangneng are brothers, they look six points similar, but their demeanor is completely different.

Du Baozhu looked at him, he felt very uncomfortable, and finally suppressed his temper, tilted his head and smiled: "What did the second uncle ask me to discuss?" ”

"Ahem-" Du Yanlin looked back weakly, and pulled Du Baozhu to the corner of the garden: "Jiaojiao'er, what is that promotion conference you made recently?" ”

"Isn't the second uncle studying in the academy? Why do you care about these little things in business? ”

Du Yanlin touched the tip of his nose and said with an embarrassed smile: "Second uncle, I have a godsister who runs a wine shop, she heard about the promotion conference from others, and she wants to participate but can't wipe her face, so please let me pass on a message." ”

Who else can this godsister be besides Liu? Du Baozhu couldn't help but laugh when he saw his posture of covering his ears and stealing the bell. I didn't even bother to pretend to be ignorant, so I was stunned and asked: "I know most of the wine shops in Chang'an City, but I don't know who the godsister you are talking about, second uncle?" ”

"Yes...... It is the shopkeeper of Liu Kee Wine Shop, Liu Niangzi. The topic was clear, but Du Yanlin breathed a sigh of relief. smiled and said: "She went to the bond store to find you yesterday, do you remember?" ”

"It turned out to be her." Du Baozhu put on a look of sudden realization, and said with a faint smile: "Second uncle, my promotion conference is just a little trick to lose money and make money, you are so interceding for her, and you don't make money when the time comes, won't she complain about you?" I can't afford it. ”

"It's not just for this ...... either"

Du Yanlin didn't know anything about doing business, and the little private money in his hand was all painstakingly saved from the pen and ink allocated to him by the Cui family every month. Hearing Du Baozhu say that the promotion conference was not profitable, he immediately believed it, and talked about the second thing that Liu explained: "I heard that Wang Debao, the shopkeeper of Changle Wine Shop in the past, was cheated by you for a sum of money and held a grudge, and now he is pulling several mansions in Xishi to retaliate against you, how do you plan to deal with this?" Do you need help from your second uncle? ”

The Liu family and Wang Debao are not of the same heart, but they are both Sun Fang's subordinates. Therefore, she thought of being a double-faced spy and being a fisherman when Du Baozhu and Wang Debao Sandpiper competed.

After being kicked out of the coupon store by Du Baozhu yesterday, the more she thought about it, the more she felt that Du Baozhu deliberately pretended to be stupid to fool her, so she asked Du Yanlin to come to Du Baozhu again to talk to her.

Although Du Baozhu didn't guess what Liu's calculations were, just because Liu's willingness to be the second uncle's outer room and her changing tricks to provoke the second aunt, she knew that she was not a fuel-efficient lamp.

At this time, after listening to Du Yanlin's words, her mud-like eyes turned flexibly, and she looked at Du Yanlin seriously and said, "Second uncle, I do have a way to deal with Wang Debao now, but this is my secret, and I can't easily tell it to others." Otherwise, the news leaks out, and this method will not work. ”
