Yang Baodai looked at Zhou Xiangli and had a lot of courage around her, she should be about the same age as her, she hadn't reacted yet, so she saw that Zhou Xiangli had already gotten into her carriage and naturally became familiar with her: "Then how about going to the nearest Tangxiang Building?" There are a few people in that place who have retired from the imperial dining room in Beijing, and the pastries made are authentic, and the taste of Fuzhou is even more first-class. Zhou Xiangli said and took the initiative to take Yang Baodai's hand and patted it: "You don't have to worry about your man, don't say that the people don't fight with the officials, even if they are businessmen who make money every day, they don't dare to fight with the officials rashly." ”

Chao Chao felt that this person was very rude, and was about to open his mouth when he heard Yang Baodai say: "Listen to Mrs. Zhou." ”

"But I can't afford Mrs. Yang's voice, I'm two years older than you, can I call you a sister?" Zhou Xiangli said, gave Yang Baodai the jade bracelet in her hand and withdrew it to her wrist, and looked at the girl next to her who was dressed dirty but beautiful and cute: "This little girl is a rare good look, now that the refugees in Quanzhou are scattered, and Lord Zhao is willing to follow, I don't know how many children are displaced, but my sister is going to adopt her?" ”

Zhou Xiangli said that a hairpin flower on her head fell on Jia'er's head and rubbed her head: "It's a blessed doll." ”

Yang Baodai does have such a plan, if this girl's mother does not go to the mansion to adopt, it is better to stay and raise it, and it is not bad to grow up with Sister Chun in the future.

When she arrived at the restaurant, Yang Baodai instructed Chao Chao to play with Jia'er, and left with Zhou Xiang into the private room.

Zhou Xiangli ordered a few plates of exquisite pastries and two pots of tea, and then talked straight to Yang Baodai, "My Zhou family has not been involved in this matter, my Zhou family has had several dealings with your man's business before, but this time I also asked my sister to say a few words for my Zhou family, and I hope that your man will not take revenge on the old days." Saying that, he got up and bowed to Yang Baodai: "My Zhou family has half of the country in the Fuzhou Chamber of Commerce, but my family will never dare to go against the government." ”

Yang Baodai was a little confused, and raised her hand to hold the person: "Since you call me a sister, and you have business dealings with my husband's family before, and you also invite me to eat exquisite pastries, just tell me about this matter." ”

"The cause is Zhao Yuanzhi, no, it is Lord Zhao who wants to clean up the business road as the source, and he beat a corrupt official in Fuzhou, they are greedy Isn't it just to make us do business and make money, but the Chamber of Commerce can't send money to your husband's post, and he also caught a businessman who has a relationship with the Ministry of Industry in the capital to play the board, which caused many people to feel uncomfortable······ This is something that someone said casually before, and I always really, who knows-"

Zhou Xiangli's eyes also warmed up after speaking: "Although I have a lot of interests, I definitely don't dare to joke with human life, my sister goes back and tells your family, even if you want to clean up the merchant Jia Li's boldness, you should take your time, otherwise, otherwise your business will also be implicated, doesn't my sister want to be a tea merchant?" Since you are going to stay in Fuzhou, also, in short, my sister still asked Lord Zhao not to force it too much. ”

"Sister Zhou, is this a favor for the Fuzhou Chamber of Commerce? Since you said that it has nothing to do with you, even if my husband retaliates, he will not implicate Sister Zhou, Sister Zhou didn't mention a name just now, and I know who it is, you businessmen are relatives, and I am not stupid for Sister Zhou to mean this. ”

Yang Baodai said and took a sip of tea, broke the pastry and said with a smile: "I am also a person who wants to establish a foothold in Fuzhou to do business, and I don't want to make the relationship too much, it's just that my husband is a member of the cabinet, don't you want to think about the real meaning of coming to Fuzhou?" She looked at Zhou Xiangli's stunned appearance, swallowed her throat and continued: "Quanzhou refugees have always been a matter of concern for the imperial court, although there are not many businessmen in Fuzhou, but they go to account for 20% of the tax revenue of the imperial treasury, what is the name in it, and the court is also very curious, I say this, Sister Zhou understands?" ”

Zhou Xiangli held the teacup in his hand fell on the table, Yang Baodai said: "I appreciate my sister's down-to-earth and capable temperament, this New Year is the most important thing in every family, since my family can't have a good New Year, then our family doesn't feel that there is anything wrong with making a fuss." ”

"Thank you, girl, for giving me that." Zhou Xiangli said and took Yang Baodai's hand: "If there is anything convenient for my sister's business, just ask." ”

Seeing that the person was leaving, the mother who followed next to her asked, "Mrs. Just said that the old slave didn't understand something." ”

Yang Baodai bit the pastry and smiled: "Even if she didn't participate, but because she knew who was involved, it was impossible for the Zhou family to stay out of the matter, since she was the big head of Fuzhou, Yuan Zhi knocked on the mountain and shook the tiger for fear of moving her head, "Now if Zhao Yuanzhi is determined to kill someone, it will be very easy, if Zhou Xiangli really wants to stay out of the matter, he has to state the position of the Zhou family in this matter."

"By the way, you go buy some children's gadgets and send them to the Zhou family, Guan Ming Zhengda will send them over, it's best for many people to watch them." Yang Baodai said and raised her hand to refill a cup of tea for herself.

Back at the mansion, Yang Baodai looked at Jia'er who was washed and brought out and felt that she was very beautiful.

Grandma Sun also said: "I thought that our sister Chun was very beautiful, and there are mountains outside the mountains." ”

Jia'er changed into a small pink jacket, added a goldfish mouth armor with a square collar outside, a group of begonia red butterflies below, two buns wearing a pair of butterfly hairpins, and a wishful lock around her neck, a goose egg face is white and tender, and there is a small red mole under her apricot eyes, which is very cute.

"I think I'm familiar with this kid, as if I've seen him somewhere." Yang Baodai beckoned the child to come over: "Your mother will come to you in a while, you stay here obediently, and tell Grandma Sun what you want." She touched the doll's head and asked her to take her to play with Sister Chun.

"It's really a sin, how can you be reluctant to be a good-looking doll." Mama Sun's uncomfortable eyes were red: "If my mother doesn't want it, and then I will be watched by someone with a heart, how about buying it to be a thin horse." ”

Yang Baodai comforted: "Wait, if her mother doesn't come, we will leave her behind and be a playmate for Sister Chun." ”

Grandma Sun also felt good when she heard this: "The little girl has a good conversation, and she just memorized two poems for me——"

As he was talking, there was a rumor that a man who claimed to be looking for a child asked to see him.

How did it come soon.

Soon Chao Chao walked in with a woman, the woman looked extremely good, although she was dressed plainly, but she couldn't hide the delicate spirit between her eyebrows, she hurriedly stepped forward to give Yang Baodai luggage: "Thank you Mrs. for taking care of the girl for me, I was negligent for a while." ”

Yang Baodai waved someone to bring Jia'er and asked, "What is the name of Madame?" ”

"It's all refugees who have been displaced from the road, if Madame doesn't dislike it, call me Dongniang."

"Mother." Jia'er immediately threw herself into Dong Niang's arms.

Dong Niang pulled the child to kneel down to Yang Baodai: "Thank you Mrs.——"

Yang Baodai felt that this Dong Niang was afraid that she was not an ordinary refugee, I was afraid that she was a person from a scholarly family, and she was neither humble nor arrogant when she encountered things, so she said: "It just so happens that there is a lack of people around me, are you willing to stay and do things for me, your daughter can also grow up with my girls to grow up, they can grow up and study together, I see that you are also polite, but you are willing to stay." ”

There are no people around her who can be used now, the people on the other side of the capital have been cultivated by her for several years, she wants to leave it to Yang Baoyuan to use, this person probably has no relatives and friends, she saved her in the midst of fire and water, and she was also kind to him.

"No, I don't have to, I can still feed my children." Dong Niang shook her head.

Mama Sun said: "You person, what's the chaos outside, it's a big winter day, where can you go with your child, and you're not afraid of being abducted by a kidnapper?" She said and looked at Jia'er: "Do you think it's pitiful for your child to be a girl for us, whose girl can read and write with the girl." ”

Jia'er hugged her mother, "Mrs. is very good to me, let's stay, so that no one will rob us of our quilt at night." ”

Yang Baodai looked at Dong Niang and said, "Then that's it, Chao Chao, you take their mother and daughter down, and find a doctor to take a good look at the disease first." She paused: "Look at your appearance, you have also read, if you can learn, you can also give the girl yesterday's enlightenment in the future." ”

Zhao Yuanzhi heard about this when he came back at night, for fear that he was a messy person, so he went over to ask in person, and finally felt that Yang Baodai had really picked up a treasure.

"You think that kid is pretty, don't you?"

"Her mother is afraid that she is a person from a scholarly family, she has read the four books and five classics thoroughly, and she has also dabbled in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.

Nurse? That's good.

Yang Baodai nodded: "I saw Zhou Xiang today and left." ”

"I know." Zhao Yuanzhi said and fell on his wife's knees, holding her hand in his arms: "She sent me a list of troublemakers, and also gave me 50,000 taels of silver, Madame is really a good means, otherwise how about you go to the yamen on an errand for me, I will give you all the money." ”

"Less poor mouth." Yang Baodai rubbed his head, as far as Zhao Yuanzhi's squandering methods are concerned, that little monthly example is definitely not enough: "Then how are you prepared?" ”

"Let them have two copies, in the end we still have to live in the governor, His Majesty has passed me a book today, guess what he said?"

"How did I guess it, I didn't let you kill people and set fires."

"I want this kind of trivial matter, what do you want Beizhen Fusi to do." Zhao Yuanzhi smiled: "Our Majesty wants to survive for a few years, and is ready to open up the mutual market in the east, but it just so happens that I am here again, so this matter will fall on my head, Bao Dai, if we do it well, it will be a big fortune, and we may make more money than the treasury." ”

Open a trade market?

"It's not going to be easy."

"I'll do it first, if you want to use the knife, Luo Xuanxue will come over." Zhao Yuanzhi didn't care: "I am also familiar with the eastern business road, and the Zhao family's business used to be on the other side, and it was okay." ”
