This night's sleep is really heavy.

There was a faint light outside the window.

A new day has begun.

Banniang got up and pushed the quilt, but found that yesterday's dress had not been taken off, and this night came over, it was already wrinkled, so she was going to get up and put it on cleanly, and someone had already picked up the bed. For a while, the light came in, Banniang squinted, and only after half a ring did she see that it was May.

"Miss, are you awake?"

May said as she helped her to sit down.

Banniang was puzzled: "Why are you here?" ”

Looking at her appearance, she looked sleepy, not like she had just gotten up, and she was still wearing yesterday's clothes.

It's been a night without sleep?

I heard May laugh and said: "After returning to the house last night, I found that Miss had slept without taking off her clothes, and the slave thought that Miss Xing would wake up in a while, so she guarded the house." ”

And he kept watch all night. Cang'er had instructed her, Miss Eight probably encountered something, when she entered the house to look, the light was on, but she saw Miss Eight frowning and falling asleep, with tears on her face.

Although she didn't know what was going on, but since Miss Cai came during the day, Miss Eight had been a little uneasy, could it be that something went wrong with Di Ergongzi's family? Otherwise, how could the young lady be so sad that she was even shedding tears when she fell asleep? She has been in Zeng's house for so long, and she has always been smiling when she sees her, how can she ever see Banniang sad?

And so it was kept all night. I'm afraid that Banniang will wake up in the middle of the night and there will be no one to serve in front of her.

Banniang also saw that this girl really hadn't slept all night, so she said angrily: "You girl, why are you so stupid, if I wake up, won't I call someone?" Do you have to keep a night in the house on such a cold day? I can do such a stupid thing again in the future, and the little maids should all get up in a while, and you can ask someone to bring me some water, and go to sleep quickly." ”

May was busy with her with a change of clothes, and said with a smile: "The house is warm, the slave and maid have added enough carbon fire, where will it be cold, but the slave and maid are not sleepy at this time, serve the good lady first." ”

Banniang said: "You just listen to me, sleep for a long time and then get busy, our master will come to the capital in a few days, the second brother is going to get married again, there are many things to do, and the son of the Li family is about to return to Nanfeng, and there is no one to help with the outside affairs in the future, I will probably be busy, those maids and women are newly bought, and only you can help me, how can I do it if I don't rest?" ”

"Miss is saying that the master is also coming to Beijing?" May rejoices.

Banniang smiled: "Exactly, but it's not here to play, the lord is being used, the heavenly family has issued an edict, I heard what the seventeenth brother said yesterday, but I don't know what the official position is, but since it is the mouth of the heavenly family himself, it won't be bad if you think about it." ”

That's a great thing.

Banniang said again: "Hurry up and rest, just call the little maid to serve." ”

May knew Banniang's temperament, and she didn't insist, so she called someone to come, and after serving Banniang and washing up, she changed her clothes and went back to the house where she lived, but she was wondering in her heart, the master was reactivated, this was a good thing at that time, why did Miss Ba still cry last night? Is it joyful? But it's not like that.

But this morning, her expression didn't look like something was really going on.

Because I sat all night, I was really sleepy, and I didn't think about it for long after I fell asleep on the bed.

Banniang cleaned up, opened the window, saw the sun rising on the horizon, and secretly said to herself: "No matter what happens, life goes on." If you want to live, you should live happily. ”

She is a person who has lived two lives, and she has been tortured by illness to the point that life is worse than death, and there is nothing more important than living well.

I went to the back garden and punched for a while, my body was sweating, and the knots in my heart seemed to have been evacuated a lot, so I put away my fist, and was about to go back to wash my face and change my clothes, when I saw Cang'er walking towards her.

"Wake up so early? I don't know how to call me even if you punch me. ”

Banniang also sighed, wiped the sweat on his face with a handkerchief, and said with a smile: "I went to bed early yesterday, and I got up early today." Don't punch any people today, let's have breakfast first, and then go back to find the eldest brother of the Li family, he will be returning in a few days. I have something to ask him for. ”

As a result, the two of them had breakfast, and before they went out, Li Yong came to the door, and Banniang smiled: "Brother Li is early, and the luggage is packed?" I'm going to look for you with Sister Cang'er, and I just want to ask you to bring something back. In addition, just let Xu 13 go with you and go back to Nanfeng together. ”

Since his father is coming to the capital, and the second brother is going to get married, it is better to bring her mother together and play all the time. Her mother really hasn't been to the capital. In this era, it is not easy for women to go out, and now that her grandmother has passed away, her mother has no constraints to serve her elders, and she should be relaxed when she comes to the capital. And there are several sisters-in-law in the family who preside over the feed, and her mother is idle at home.

When Li Yong heard this, he said, "I haven't eaten breakfast yet, you hurry up and ask someone to bring some up, I'm hungry." ”

Banniang hurriedly asked people to come over early, only to hear Li Yong say again: "I'm just afraid that I won't be able to return to the capital for a while." ”

Having said that, there was joy in his tone.

Banniang said: "But what happened? But looking at Brother Li's appearance, it's a good thing. ”

"It's not a good thing, but it's not a bad thing. Do you know that I actually met Zhao Wuye from Dingnan Houfu yesterday. ”

Zhao Zhe? Zhao Wulang?

"Fifth Prince Zhao? What did he say to you? ”

"Exactly. He said that his house has a few shops, not bad, and heard that I am looking for shops, his shop because of the poor management of the shopkeeper in front of the house, in order to save some trouble, is planning to rent out, so I asked me if I want. I asked about the location, but the one in the state bridge, and a few others in the Hongqiao, are all good locations. ”

"You agreed to rent it?" Banniang hurriedly asked.

Li Yong rolled her eyes, and while eating the porridge and side dishes sent by the maids, he said: "Look at the little eighth sister, what you are asking, it seems that I really don't understand anything, although the boss said that Zhao Wulang can be handed over, but that Zhao Wulang's identity is not ordinary, where do I dare to respond directly?" Be cautious. I only said that this shop is for a friend to find someone, and I have to ask my friend what he means, so I can answer him, no, I discussed it with the boss in the evening, and the boss thinks it can be rented, so I came to ask what you mean. ”

Banniang smiled, and said in her heart that this guy is really different from before. But it has become coarse and fine.

I heard Li Yong continue: "But Zhao Wugongzi also said that this matter can't be delayed, and there are many people who want to rent the golden location of the shop." ”

Banniang thought for a while, and then said: "Brother Li, it's better to be like this, you go to talk to Zhao Wugongzi today, and don't mention whether the two rents are rented or not, just make an appointment with him, and one day you have to have a tea together, just say that in addition to you, there is a friend who wants to meet him." ”

"Why is that?"

Banniang smiled: "You don't plan to open that shop?" And the off-season planting thing I mentioned last time, you don't plan to do it? ”

"Nature is what to do." Li Yonghui came to his senses, "Little Eighth Sister is saying, this Fifth Prince Zhao, can you help us?" ”

Banniang smiled and said: "I just thought you were different from before, who knew that you were still so careless, you have to think about everything carefully, the two shops in the prime location of the Houfu may not do good business, so you have to rent it to other families?" ”

Li Yong smiled: "I naturally know this, but I see that although Zhao Wugongzi is ruthless, he is not a business material, could it be that he really wants to do business with us?" I'm not worried that he has something else to ask for, and we won't be able to agree. ”

Banniang said: "Whether there is anything you want, or whether you can do it, we have to talk about it to know." ”

"Cheng, I'll look for him when I turn around."

"Don't go in person, just send someone to send him a post, set a time and place, and ask him out for tea. As for whether he will come or not, he will naturally give you a reply. ”

This is all taken to show goodwill, if you can sit down and talk, Zhao Zhe will definitely not refuse.
