Chapter 146: Business Doesn't Need Money
The skills were displayed until the afternoon, and Mrs. Wu invited Lian Xiaojun to have dinner together.
Although it was still through the curtain, Mrs. Wu Shao talked to him more and more, Mrs. Wu Shao never seemed to go out, but even Xiaojun rarely went out, and could only talk about the things around him, such as how he and his family went to see the lanterns when he was a child and how they were robbed.
"Does everyone in your family look as beautiful as you?" Mrs. Wu asked.
Lian Xiaojun said: "I am the most beautiful." ”
He did not belittle his own family, nor did he prevent the idea of calling other family members.
Young Lady Wu's laughter came from inside.
"But there's one person who is more beautiful than me." Lian Xiaojun said again, "It's my sixth aunt, but she has passed away." ”
Mrs. Wu asked this person curiously, but even Xiaojun refused to say more, only said that it was very beautiful, because it was too beautiful to keep in the world, please forgive the young lady, he didn't want to talk about this beautiful aunt who died early, it seemed that this was a blasphemy against the deceased.
Mrs. Wu didn't ask any more questions, invited Lian Xiaojun to drink tea, and then asked, "What else will you do?" ”
He has shown so many skills, just sitting here is equivalent to a rare treasure, the young lady is really a young lady, and it is easy not to be attracted.
"What does the young lady want me to do?" Lian Xiaojun asked.
Li Minglou smiled, she was not interested in sitting down with him anymore, looking at him and listening to imagine what life her mother was like when she was young.
"You say you're a treasure, you say I'm in danger." She asked, "And can you save me from my danger?" ”
Lian Xiaojun nodded and said, "Yes." ”
"What are you going to do?" Li Minglou asked.
Lian Xiaojun said: "I can earn money for the young lady." ”
The prefect of Song walked around the front hall, his expression was sometimes happy, sometimes worried, sometimes nervous, and Changshi looked uneasy.
"The young lady beat those two writing gentlemen to death?" He asked in a low voice.
Song Zhifu was taken aback: "What nonsense! He corrected again, "Even if those two writing gentlemen are killed, it can't be said that Mrs. Wu was killed, but only by our government."
"He was convicted and punished by our government, and he died of frailty." The long history was also corrected.
Mrs. Wu Shao can't kill people casually, and neither can the government, everything must be famous.
Governor Song snorted, flicked his sleeves, and sat down on the chair.
"What the hell happened to those two writing gentlemen? Adults go to see the young lady come back so sad? Changshi asked.
Governor Song beckoned to him and whispered: "I didn't see those two writing gentlemen, and there is one more person in Mrs. Wu's place." ”
"What others?" The long history is incomprehensible.
Song Zhifu was meaningful: "One, immortal." ”
.
Song Zhifu and Changshi stood at the door and stared, and in the evening, a carriage drove out of the back house and came back to enter.
The two servants who followed closely behind the carriage also hurriedly jumped into the yamen.
"I went to the inn to pick up Lian Xiaojun's entourage and luggage." They whispered, "The young lady also settled the cost of the hotel for them, and the attendant said that he would live with the young lady in the future." ”
Governor Song closed his eyes and waved at the two people: "Don't say that, you can't say that." ”
Before the words fell, a small official ran over from behind and whispered: "The young lady has arranged the garden room over there, and said that it is for the guests to live." ”
Governor Song held his forehead with his hand.
"Is it really that beautiful?" Changshi asked curiously.
All three officials nodded.
"The people at the inn said that this person can only be in heaven."
"I just took a look behind me, and the boy was walking across the stone bridge and looked back at me, beautiful like a painting."
Governor Song couldn't listen to it anymore and blasted them away: "Who dares to talk nonsense again and break your legs." ”
The officials shrank and fled.
Changshi said in a low voice: "So this man recommended himself with his beauty, and the young lady accepted it?" ”
Governor Song couldn't bear to listen: "Don't say it so exaggeratedly!" ”
But things are not only so exaggerated, on the second day, Mrs. Wu's carriage drove out of the house surrounded by more than a dozen guards, and the people gathered around to chant Mrs. Wu, and the curtain of the car was lifted with the wind to reveal a beautiful person, but it was a man.
This beautiful man sat in the carriage of Mrs. Wu Shao, and went in and out of the merchant restaurant under the escort of Mrs. Wu, buying all kinds of goods to eat, drink and have fun, which caused a sensation in the city.
"People are saying that in addition to martial arts, storytelling, singing, painting, and tricks, beauty can also be self-recommended." Nagashi learned the words on the street to the prefect, "Some people think this is a little inappropriate, and some people take it for granted, and most of the people who think it is understandable are women, saying that in the past, men always gave gifts to each other with beautiful people, and women can also get beautiful gifts."
Song Zhifu, who was holding his head with his hands, couldn't listen anymore, and interrupted him with both hands clapping his knees: "Don't say it, what is there to talk about here, young lady, she is a young lady, a married woman, first a Xiang family came to obsession, and then a Lian beauty, this time the young lady did not drive away, and stayed at home." ”
Changshi seemed to be distracted and thoughtful: "My lord, how do those two writing gentlemen look?" ”
Song Zhifu's hand on his knee slapped his forehead heavily again, hiding his face under his sleeve.
But no matter how much he didn't want to hear it, it became a well-known fact that the young lady was accompanied by a beautiful man, when the young lady went to the barracks to see the situation of the soldiers and horses, when she saw the government officials listening to the people's livelihood, and even when she looked at the account book, she had this Lian Xiaojun by her side.
"How are you looking these days?"
Although they are accompanied by each other every day, when they go out, Mrs. Wu puts on the veil again, and at home they still wear the curtain and do not show their faces in front of Lian Xiaojun.
Even Xiaoqiang thinks that this is self-ashamed, and many women have covered their faces because of the beauty of Mrs. Wu.
Even Xiaojun didn't have any guesses, he didn't want to ask casually, and when he heard the question behind the curtain, he put down the dishes and chopsticks.
"I'm pretty much there." He said, "Let me first make the most urgent business for the young lady." ”
"What business?" Mrs. Wu asked.
Lian Xiaojun said: "Buy grain." ”
Eating and drinking is indeed the most urgent and biggest crisis, and the food and grass of the soldiers and civilians of Gwangju Prefecture are becoming more and more scarce.
Li Minglou also put down the dishes and chopsticks: "How much money do you need?" ”
Lian Xiaojun said with a smile: "I don't need the young lady to pay, as long as I give five hundred strong soldiers as a guard." ”
Finally, the woman's laughter could be heard behind the curtain.
"Xiaojun can do business like this, it's really a treasure."
If you can't do this, even Xiaojun is not a treasure.
Words are a double-edged sword, boasting on one side and degrading on the other.
"This young lady is really ruthless." Lian Xiaoqiang complained while packing up her baggage, "You have been with her for a few days, and she has even kicked you out, and she doesn't pity you for how many hardships and dangers you have when you go out." ”
Lian Xiaojun looked at the mirror and reached out to touch her face: "It seems that she didn't like my beauty." ”
