Waiting for the Zhou family to take Lang Zhai and the slave out of the hall, the Qi family took Su Ning'er and went to the Tanghua Courtyard together.

Qingchun and Shuang'er each carried a lantern in their hands, and followed the two of them one after the other without hurrying.

Just entered the gate of Tanghua Courtyard, Qi seemed to have figured out something, and couldn't wait to ask: "Ning'er Fangcai's words were deliberately said to your second aunt, right?" ”

"Hehe", Suning'er couldn't help but chuckle: "It's for A-Niang to notice." ”

Qin'er on the side was also so happy that she couldn't help but interject: "The slave maid saw that Yiniang had been emphasizing things like Zhanli, and I thought that Yiniang was going to be as iron-faced and selfless as the second lady, but then I saw that the second lady's face improved, and I noticed that Yiniang's words had a deep meaning, and Yiniang deserved to be favored by the saint and was smart." ”

"You stinky girl", Qi Shi glanced at her angrily: "I don't know if I know it, I don't know anything about it, it's not that I almost hurt the slave family and want to scold Ning'er." ”

"Slave, slave......"

Qin'er was so frightened that she didn't know how to defend herself, so Suning'er hurriedly took over and argued with her: "A-Niang is right like this, the second aunt's temperament, if she detects the intentions of our mother and daughter, she will not redeem the thirteenth uncle." ”

"Well, your second aunt is indeed the master of oil and salt, blindly begging bitterly, she will definitely not care about your thirteenth uncle's affairs, but it is Ning'er's words", Qi Shi pursed her lips and smiled bitterly: "Well, she still has to worry about your second uncle's feelings, even if your thirteenth uncle has more of it, if he loses his life because of a hundred yuan of silver, he will be cold." ”

"What A-Niang said is", Suning'er hesitated: "It's just that it's not a way to go on like this after all, Uncle Thirteen has no family and came to the Western Capital alone, but he can't go back to his home, wandering like a lonely ghost, he will inevitably be disheartened, and he still has to think of a way to let him retract." ”

"This matter, your second uncle still takes it to heart, otherwise he wouldn't have taken fifty yuan of silver to ask A-Niang to give to your thirteenth uncle last time he went to the Pure Industry Temple, it can be seen that he has your thirteenth uncle in his heart."

Back in the wing, Qi sat her on the edge of the bed with her, and continued with some complaint: "It's a pity that in those days, your second uncle was entangled in business matters, and he was afraid of arguing with your second aunt because of the thirteen things, but after all, blood is thicker than water, your ancestor and father have always been at ease with no less than thirteen during their lifetimes, how can he watch your thirteenth uncle become a lowly status, and he has no face when it is spread like this." ”

"I don't know when the second uncle will come back," Suning'er thought about it: "Before leaving, he also acquiesced to pick up the thirteenth uncle back." ”

"Let your second aunt take it back and live in the house first, so that people can look at it well, but in a month, he has lost more than 100 yuan of private savings and the mansion, and he can't let him go out to make trouble again", Qi Shi looked at Suning'er with a worried face:

"It's those words that Fang Cai Ning'er said to your second aunt, and when they reached the ears of the thirteenth, he was afraid that he would be unhappy again."

"Haha", thinking of the scene of seeing Lang Thirteen these times, Suning'er couldn't help but show a silly smile: "It's just that I was scolded by Uncle Thirteen a few words, compared to being abused by someone in the Persian mansion, this grievance is nothing." ”

Listening to these words, Qi Shi was quite moved, his heart was warm, and he didn't know what to say.

Stretching out the slender fingers and gently stroking her hair with pity, Qi became more and more pleased, and finally took a long breath and sighed slowly: "Ning'er has really grown up." ”

Seeing that her sadness had disappeared, and a stretched smile began to appear on her face, Suninger also sincerely felt that this grievance was nothing, and she just hoped that it would be calm and calm next, and that nothing would happen again.

The mother and daughter were talking, and Qingchun had already brought some snacks and put them on the table.

Qi Shi helped her over, sat on the chair and stool, and instructed with a kind face: "At this hour, Ah Niang thought that you shouldn't eat too many sweet and greasy things, but I was afraid that Ning Er would go to Shangshu Mansion for the first time and feel that it was a little bit raw, so I still let Ah Chun prepare some, you should eat less." ”

"Hehe, Ning'er knows", Suning'er picked up a piece of snack and put it into her mouth with some embarrassment, although she was a little hesitant, she still chewed it slowly.

Today in Ye Lanlan's house, he didn't feel too angry as Qi said, that is, when he encountered those things, he didn't have a good appetite.

Now that I have returned to my own yard, I have been tossing for a long time, I am already hungry, and I think that weight loss should be taboo, but the food prepared by Qi every time is really delicious, how can I live up to it.

Oh, let's talk about losing weight tomorrow.

Qi Shi quietly watched her eat most of the dim sum after a while, and wanted to blame but felt distressed, so he had to endure the blame, and asked softly: "Ning Er went to Shangshu Mansion today, the second mother of the Ye family is extremely enthusiastic about you, right?" ”

"Well, it's good, Erniang also gave Ning'er a pair of Zihao", she thought about it with her mouth screw, and she said again: "Erniang also passed some words for King Qing, and asked Ning'er to convey them to the second uncle on his behalf." ”

"Oh? What are the words that you want to bother the little lady of the Ye family to convey to your second uncle? ”

For this reason, Suning'er couldn't talk to the Qi family in detail, so she could only relay what Ye Lanlan said to her: "Now that the Beisi party is in charge of the government, King Qing doesn't want the second uncle to compete with the Tao family for business for the time being, and only needs to make a good deal with Hu Shang. ”

Qi's deep eyes suddenly blinked heavily, and then fell into deep thought.

After a while, she said slowly: "The world is like this, how can your second uncle not understand these things, now your second uncle wants to come back to Yangzhou, Luoyang, Hezhong Mansion must also be arranged, this year our Su family production of silk is only afraid that Hu Shang can consume, or have to point to the transaction with the imperial court, when you marry into the Qingwang Mansion, other things can be slowly figured out." ”

Su Ning'er thought carefully, this year, the business of all the shops was taken over by the Tao family, and the rest of the positions were some remote places, and if they lost the interests of this end, if they lost the weaving department, the Su family would indeed be unsustainable.

Moreover, as the Qi family said, at present, the Su family has invested their furniture in the business of exchanging silk for war horses next year, and Su Jing is also already arranging sericulture matters everywhere.

"This matter, A-Niang will mention it to your second aunt tomorrow, but this year's business must be fully promoted", Qi said solemnly:

"Your second uncle and second aunt have bet all the property in the house on this business, if you rashly withdraw the family assets, the loss is immeasurable, and now the war is about to start, the war horses are very huge, our silk in the south of the Yangtze River is in short supply, how can your second uncle and second aunt be willing to lose this deal."

"Hmm."

Suninger calmly analyzed, judging from the current situation, this is indeed the case.

The Tao family's business is not in silk, and there is no way to compete with the Su family.

Moreover, the amount of silk needed by the imperial court for this Yima was indeed huge, and the copper coins could not be traded directly with the Turks, and the gold and silver reserves were insufficient, so they had to rely on such hard currency goods in exchange for high-quality war horses.

So after thinking about it, she also thinks that this business should be done well this year.
