Chapter 40: The drunken face sent by Qi Xiu
The past few days have been calm, the Wang family has already made a decision, the date is before the year, while there are still two months left, everything must be ready. Fei Jingyue still greets Zhang's every day, and spends the rest of her time reading books, and occasionally goes over to help Fu Qingrou pick up some wedding things. Although it was a concubine who got married, Fei Fu couldn't lose face.
On this day, Fei Jingyue was still leaning on the window and reading a book, it was a miscellaneous book, about a travelogue by a person named Di Ning, it was a travelogue but not exactly a travelogue, this book wrote a lot of strange herbs, as well as the efficacy and medicinal properties of these herbs, some are poisons, and some are life-saving, Fei Jingyue is simply unheard of, and she sees it with relish, and she doesn't even know that Qi Xiu is here.
Since Emperor Chengshun gave Fei Jingyue the title of county lord, she has told Qi Xiu everything about that day. As for Tan Xiangya, who Emperor Chengshun occasionally mentioned that day, even he didn't know, so he had to inquire secretly, listening to the meaning of Emperor Chengshun's words, it seemed that this Tan Xiangya was the murderer who killed Queen Chunshan.
Qi Xiuli has already found out some eyebrows, why this Eastern Fence Imperial Concubine must cause Yue'er to die, but now is not the time to tell Yue'er. He came today for something else.
He gently hugged the little person from behind, feeling her body fragrance, which was the taste he thought about day and night. Fei Jingyue was startled by him, but when she felt that it was him, she quieted down and just let him hold her.
Since the two of them made up their hearts in the palace, except for not making it public at the moment, the others are no different from ordinary couples, Fei Jingyue no longer resists his approach, even if the next moment is a catastrophe, she doesn't want to leave him at this moment.
The two embraced each other quietly, and no one broke this beautiful tranquility.
After a while, Fei Jingyue turned around and asked, "What's going on today?" ”
"Miss you, can't I come and see you?" Qi Xiuli pulled her forehead hair and said with a smile.
She pulled away his restless hand, put down the book in her hand, leaned against the soft collapse and said, "His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince usually comes at night, and he ventured to come here in broad daylight today, there must be something important, right?" ”
The man seemed to be a little dissatisfied with her refusal, and also leaned on the soft collapse and said, "Can't you not be so smart?" ”
Looking at the woman in front of him smiling like a flower, with a faint smile, he seemed to forget the dissatisfaction just now and said with a smile: "Today I want to give Yue'er a gift." ”
After speaking, he took out a piece of paper from his arms, and Fei Jingyue took it and saw that it was a land deed, a shop at No. 30 Jiuqu Street.
"What are you?" Fei Jingyue was a little puzzled.
"This is a shop on Jiuqu Street, I bought it and gave it to you, you should need it." The man calmly drank the honey tea that Fei Jingyue had made for him.
Jiuqu Street is the most prosperous street in the capital, it is a place where all kinds of expensive items are concentrated, and the shops there are also the most expensive in the capital.
She really needs to.
All the expenses in this family are uniformly distributed by the Zhang family, in fact, it is pitiful that it is distributed to each courtyard, and most of the things that Fu Qingrou brought from her mother's house were swallowed up by the Zhang family, leaving only a small part for herself, but now it has been used.
The intelligence network built by Bixi requires a large amount of money, and her current small treasury can't last long. And in addition to bringing economic benefits to themselves, this shop can also find out the first-hand news of the whole capital, everyone knows that the most well-informed news in Kyoto is from the gossip of women, so Qi Xiuli can now be said to be a charcoal in the snow.
"This is a jewelry shop, and its name is Drunken Hongyan, which means that all Hongyan can't resist the temptation of the jewelry here, and they will all get drunk." Qi Xiuli said lightly.
Seeing her name written on the shop, Fei Jingyue was a little moved, this man is always like this, he seems indifferent, but in fact he is enthusiastic; It seems uninhibited, but in fact, it is as meticulous as a hair.
She hugged Qi Xiuli with her backhand, this was the first time she took the initiative, but it was out of sincerity, this man may only pay for him in his lifetime.
Seeing her initiative, Qi Xiuli was overjoyed, of course, a stormy kiss was indispensable.
Until the two of them reluctantly parted, Fei Jingyue snuggled in his arms.
"The boss's name is Lao Liang, he is his own person, I saved him before, so you can use it with confidence." Even these details have been considered for her.
"Well, I'll find a chance to go out and have a look."
After Qi Xiu left, Fei Jing pondered for a moment, in exchange for Biyu to put on a rose velvet shawl for herself, now it has begun to get cold, and you must wear a shawl when you go out.
After paying for the gentle instructions, she took Li Xiaoding, Bixi, and Biyu out of the door.
Fei Jingyue has been helping Fu Rou to buy these days, it is not difficult to go out, she will be fourteen after the New Year, and she will be in time for another year, and the cold in front of her is almost twelve, and it has been almost a year since she came to this world.
Just thinking about it, Xiao Ding said, "Miss, it's here." ”
Bixi and Biyu helped her down, looking at the drunken red face in front of her, this shop is not small, it is the common elegant style of Dashun, it is a two-story building, she estimated that it is probably about two hundred square meters, Qi Xiuli is really generous, and it is estimated that it will cost an ordinary family to buy such a shop in Dashun without eating or drinking for three years.
There were three guys in it, and there were four people in total, plus the boss.
Seeing their group, a man greeted them.
"Miss looked at the noodles, are you going to buy any jewelry? As long as you want in Quandashun, there are small shops. ”
"Well, take a look." She was not busy talking about it, she just said to see, and stepped into the store with the two maidservants.
The shopkeeper greeted him, looking at the old Liang in front of him, although he had a lot of gray hair, he looked quite strong, although he looked kind on his face, but he was definitely a shrewd person.
"Bring us the best of your picks and show it to our lady." Biyu will say to Lao Liang.
"Miss, wait a minute, our store's head jewelry is the best in the capital." Lao Liang winked at the guy.
A young man came over with a box of jewelry, Fei Jingyue picked it up and looked at it, it was indeed very good.
The blue pink earrings turned out to be a rare peach blossom jade, this is a kind of jade produced in Dashun, the chalcedony is surging inside, it looks green, because it comes from a valley called peach blossom pass, so it is named peach blossom jade.
"It's a good product, but I want to see a better one." Fei Jingyue said softly.
"Miss still wants better goods? Can I ask the lady who is in the house? This high-quality goods can't be left in the store casually, if the young lady wants it, the old man will pick it up and send it to the young lady's house. This old Liang said quietly.
Sure enough, he is a shrewd person, and ordinary people are eager to make a big business immediately, and the three of their masters and servants are also expensive, but the shopkeeper still changes his way to find out his origin, if the identity is good, then there is naturally a better product to take out, if it is an ordinary person, there is no need to reveal anything.
"You go and pick it up, Miss Ben is waiting in this store, it's okay." Fei Jingyue seemed to deliberately embarrass him.
"Then there's Miss Law waiting." Lao Liang was not angry.
After a while, the man took a delicate box, and when he opened it, it was a set of heads, and as soon as he opened it, it took the eyes of several people.
It is the most difficult gilding process to make, the financialization has been drawn, then woven, and then dotted on the jadeite skeleton after weaving.
"Miss, this is the best face in the shop, but the price is ....."
"It's okay, you just talk about it." Fei Jingyue looked like she really wanted to buy it.
"If the lady really wants to buy, then you have to tell the identity of the old lady and the lady, this is also the rule of the shop, the store never does business without knowing the source, and naturally does not sell customers who do not know the details. Moreover, the products of the small store are registered, which is also convenient for the owner to check the accounts. Lao Liang had already put away his head at this time, although he was respectful, he was neither humble nor arrogant.
Fei Jingyue is satisfied, such a shopkeeper is shrewd but accidental, and he is a helper who can help himself.
So he no longer concealed it, Biyu whispered his identity in Lao Liang's ear.
Lao Liang hurriedly invited her upstairs.
On the second floor is a small room, which is for big customers to see the goods, there are many big customers who are unwilling to show what they have bought, and the small room can also show the difference in identity.
After entering the small room, Lao Liang immediately knelt down and bowed.
"Lao Liang see the county lord of Xiaoning."
She helped Lao Liang up and said with a faint smile: "Lao Liang is an old man, and the county lord is very relieved." ”
Lao Liang was a little embarrassed, "The old man was clumsy, he didn't even see that the county lord was coming, and the seventh prince had already sent someone to inform him, but the old man still didn't dare to admit it, for fear that it would be bad to recognize the wrong person and expose the county lord, so he changed his way to find out the identity of the county lord." ”
"That's good, if someone with bad intentions takes something from the store, something will inevitably go wrong."
"It's inconvenient for the county lord to come over from time to time, and things in this store will trouble Lao Liang in the future." Fei Jingyue said.
"That's nature." Lao Liang said yes again and again.
"Also, I hope Lao Liang can write down any movements in this capital and send them to me in time, and I, the maid Bixi, will be responsible for contacting."
"Yes, County Lord."
"Bring me the ledger and I'll look at it." Fei Jingyue said again.
After reading the account book, Fei Jingyue said: "It seems that this Meng Hongwen is greedy for a lot of ink?" ”
Lao Liang was shocked, there are not many people who know this news, and this county lord knows it just by looking at the account books?
Seeing that Lao Liang was puzzled, she smiled and said: "The Meng family and the Fei Mansion will not be much different, but Meng Gaoyang has set a few sets of heads, which is already beyond the scope of her family's ability." and her sister-in-law Su Zhangrou ordered a set of peach blossom jade jewelry, which she could not afford as a child of a foreign sect, so the Meng family was naturally greedy for ink.
Looking at the county lord in front of him, Lao Liang admired in his heart, this county lord is not the kind of official lady who is ignorant of the world, her shrewdness is no less than herself.
Most of the official ladies in the capital will come to them to buy things, so naturally they have first-hand news, and the county lord actually thought of using it. But with an account book, you can analyze the situation of the Meng Mansion, and you must not underestimate it, and you really deserve to be the sweetheart of the Seven Princes.
