Chapter 480: Showing Favor in Every Possible Way

Xue Yi immediately did so, but the Ye family was very tight, and she couldn't find out anything at all, only to hear that Ye Pei had been sick for the past few days and couldn't go to court, and he was recuperating in the mansion.

But this is not a secret, you can find out when you ask Shao Huaigu, so Xue Yi basically didn't find anything.

Although Qian Qianqian was a little distressed, it was also in her expectation, if the Ye family was so easy to hear the news, I am afraid that it would have disappeared in this capital long ago, and it would not become a big family in this capital, even if it was not liked by the emperor, it would still stand.

"Miss Qian, Mrs. Li is here."

At this moment, Xue Yi walked in, bowed slightly beside Qian Qianqian, and reported.

Qian Qianqian came back to her senses, suddenly raised her eyes, and waited for several days, she could be regarded as waiting, this "Mrs. Li" was really a distinguished guest.

"Let's go, meet her."

Qian Qianqian stood up, straightened the clothes on her body, and walked out with her feet raised.

In the front hall, a noble lady sat on a wooden chair, plump, combed with a rich auspicious cloud bun, although the were half-old, but the charm still existed, and she must have been a beauty when she was young.

"Mrs. Lee."

Qian Qianqian bowed slightly towards the woman, her eyes narrowed slightly, and the smile on her face was just right, friendly, but with a touch of alienation, with indescribable inquiry.

"Miss Qian, the concubine has wanted to visit you for a long time, but the affairs in the house are entangled, and I really can't get out, and I am afraid of disturbing you, so I haven't been able to come, and I invite you Haihan."

Mrs. Li is very polite, her every move is very respectful, when she came over just now, Xue Yi told her that this Mrs. Li is Li Huai's daughter-in-law, and she is also from an official family, and her status in the Li family is quite high, and she rarely lowers her eyebrows so much with people.

"Madame, what are you talking about, you are much older than me, no matter what, it should be me who visits you, you came here in person, it really tormented me."

Qian Qianqian immediately went over to help Mrs. Li, since Mrs. Li was so polite, then she naturally couldn't be rude, wasn't she just pretending? When who won't.

"A few days ago, the dog collided with the girl's carriage outside, and the girl not only didn't care, but also sent someone to send him back to the house, and also sent a lot of silver taels, which really made our Li Mansion ashamed."

Mrs. Li sat aside, sighed, and frowned, which made Qian Qianqian a little surprised, this family, one singing white-faced, the other singing black-faced, didn't know what it meant.

"Madame's words are serious, it was my carriage that accidentally hit and injured the son, the compensation is due, the little son is fine."

Qian Qianqian sat down on the wooden chair opposite, in fact, she could have sat on the main seat, but she and Xiao Mohan haven't really married yet, and Xiao Mohan is not there, she doesn't want people to think that she is using Xiao Mohan's identity to fake the tiger.

"He was only slightly injured, and now he is fine, thank you for the girl's care."

Mrs. Li bowed slightly, and said every word humbly and respectfully, making Qian Qianqian feel uncomfortable.

It stands to reason that this Mrs. Li is also an official lady, and she has been given the order of the fourth grade, so there is no need to be so deferential to her, if she is really the general's wife, she is just a grass man now, Mrs. Li treats her like this, she really wants her to die.

"Mrs. Li, I don't know why you came to the door this time?"

Qian Qianqian got straight to the point, picked up the tea at hand, and said quietly.

"I don't hide it, my lord has been idle in the house, no official and no position, I heard that the girl is a businessman, can do business, and has done well in Lianzhou and the capital, so I specially came to learn from the girl, so that the girl can also teach us."

Mrs. Li took a sip of tea, but she said it with great interest, but Qian Qianqian felt very ridiculous.

In the entire Xiao country, merchants are the lowest status, especially those small merchants and hawkers, not only are they driven away by official errands, but they are also often suppressed by large merchants, which is simply miserable, and it is not as comfortable as being an official.

"Mrs. Li, don't tease me, when Lord Li retires one day, the position of this squire in the Ministry of Industry will belong to your husband sooner or later, and you will learn to do business again, isn't that self-surrendering?"

"Wait for this day, we have to wait until the Year of the Monkey and the Horse Month, our Li family has not been treated by the emperor all the time, I think the career of the Li family will stop here, there can be no reversal, so I and the master both feel that we can't go on like this forever, we must find another way."

Mrs. Li explained one by one, it seemed that she was very helpless, this Li Mansion is not as good as a day, and hundreds of people in the mansion have to eat, so they have to think of a way.

"So you want to do business and make money?"

Qian Qianqian glanced at Mrs. Li, her eyes were full of cunning, she tilted her head slightly, and her eyes were full of indescribable agility.

"Hmm." Mrs. Li nodded heavily and met Qian Qianqian's gaze, her eyes full of hope.

"There are so many businessmen in this city, Madame came to me, and she inevitably looked up to me too much, compared with those big businessmen in the capital, my little trick is nothing at all, so Madame should find someone else."

Qian Qianqian is not a fool, her business in the capital is not known at all except for a few people in the General's Mansion, this Mrs. Li said so, obviously investigating her clearly.

"You can do business with General Xiao, looking at the entire Xiao country, who else has this ability? We all believe in General Xiao's vision, and the person he likes must not be wrong. ”

Mrs. Li's mouth was as sweet as honey, but even so, she couldn't coax Qian Qianqian.

"How can General Xiao and I cooperate in business? General Xiao is not a businessman, madam, where did you hear this news, it is simply nonsense. ”

Qian Qianqian's eyes widened, pretending not to know anything, her eyes wandered away from Mrs. Li, and she looked innocent.

This Mrs. Li is also a shrewd person, seeing that Qian Qianqian didn't want to admit it, she didn't continue, anyway, what the truth is, she has a mirror in her heart.

"Miss Qian, I know that for the sake of those fields, our people in the Li Mansion have offended you, and the lord has already punished them heavily, I really didn't expect that the field turned out to be Lord Shao's, we offended, if you see Lord Shao in the future, you must say a few more kind words for us."

Mrs. Li's words changed and mentioned this, just as Qian Qianqian was about to speak, but this matter came out of Mrs. Li's mouth, and it seemed that there was always something else.

"Your people are not wrong, they carry out the things ordered by the master with their hearts, as dogs, they are indeed qualified, but as for Lord Shao, it is a matter between you and him, I can't control it, so Mrs. found the wrong person."

Qian Qianqian said very firmly, and she didn't mean anything close to Mrs. Li, no matter how Mrs. Li showed her goodwill, she didn't take it.

"Miss Qian, these are the silver you sent to us before, and I added a little more, and I sent it to you on a special trip, you see."

Mrs. Li still squeezed a smile and pretended, Qian Qianqian looked at her actions, and felt tired for her, so smirking all day, I'm afraid half of her face is stiff.

"No need, I don't lack this bit of silver, and the General's Mansion is not lacking, so Madame should keep it for herself."

Before the silver was raised, she was rejected by Qian Qianqian, her temperament has always been like this, and she will not change easily if she decides, and there is no room for maneuver when she refuses.

"Miss Qian, why are you so resistant? I'm here today to make amends, not to find faults, so you don't have to be so guarded against me. ”

Mrs. Li also saw the clue in this, from just now to now, Qian Qianqian is like a hedgehog, which is completely unapproachable, there must be something wrong with this.

"In this case, I have received your reparation, and it is clear, I will not blame you for what happened before, even if this matter is over, I will treat it as if it never happened, and I will not mention it again, you can rest assured."

Qian Qianqian didn't show weakness, she still didn't plan to look at the box brought up by Mrs. Li's people, no matter what treasures were in it, she was not rare.

"I know that the girl is the most sensible, no wonder she can stay by General Xiao's side for so long, if the girl becomes the general's wife in the future, the future must be limitless."

Mrs. Li is very good at complimenting people, every sentence is just right, Qian Qianqian even thinks that with this Mrs. Li's emotional intelligence, if she was born in modern times, she will definitely be able to make a great career.

"Thank you, Madame, for the compliment."

Qian Qianqian didn't deny it, anyway, she was going to marry Xiao Mohan sooner or later, so there was nothing to hide.

Mrs. Li glanced at the entourage not far away, and the two entourages put the big wooden box in front of Qian Qianqian, and then opened the wooden box, and the golden gold in it came into Qian Qianqian's eyes.

"So much gold, madam, I asked myself if I didn't give you so many silver taels, I can't afford to accept your gift."

Qian Qianqian sighed, fortunately, she has also seen the world, and she has seen a lot of good things with Xiao Mohan, otherwise she would really be carried away by these golden things.

"These golds are not only reparations, but also filial piety, the relationship between our Li Mansion and the General's Mansion has always been bad, General Xiao is often absent, we don't think it yet, but as the days go on, we feel that we can't go on like this, you will be the general's wife sooner or later, so our master specially asked me to come to visit you, I wonder if there is a chance to repair the relationship with the General's Mansion?"

Mrs. Li looked at Qian Qianqian, holding tea in her hand, and almost replaced the wine with tea and toasted Qian Qianqian.

"Madam is really joking, don't say that I am not the general's wife yet, even if it is my business, this kind of thing cannot be decided by me, everything I have today is given by General Xiao, so can I reconcile with the Li Mansion, I don't count it, General Xiao said it."

Qian Qianqian quietly kicked this trouble to Xiao Mohan, anyway, Xiao Mohan was not there, no matter what the Li Mansion wanted to do, Xiao Mohan would not appear.

"Having said that, General Xiao likes you so much, you should be able to speak better than anyone else in front of him, as long as you are willing to say a few good words for our Li Mansion, the general will definitely not blame the past and reuse our Li family."
