Chapter 172 Prepare to stop
The world thinks that he is deeply favored by the emperor's uncle, his father is a prince, and he is the king of the county.
But no one knows what kind of darkness and conspiracy are hidden behind this glamorous and honorable quilt.
For example, he made a gesture of befriending powerful people, took the initiative to show favor to Ouyang Yongshu, a master in the literary world, and through his affection with Di Yong, the second son of the Di family, in order to secretly get the support of Lord Di.
Everyone thought that he was determined to win the throne, but who knew that he was just hiding the eyes and ears of the imperial uncle in the way that he wanted at the request of the imperial uncle. The result of this is nothing more than pushing himself in front of others, becoming a pawn in the battle for the crown prince, attracting all eyes to himself, becoming a shield for the heavenly family, and fulfilling his plan to delay the army.
Seeing that the future crown prince was deeply loved by the Heavenly Family, the ministers always had the bottom in their hearts, and felt that it was a foregone conclusion that he Chai Qingyan would become the next Heavenly Family of the Great Song Dynasty in the future, so they would not force his imperial uncle too much, and make an order as soon as possible to make him the crown prince.
Just as this time in the court in Beijing, when the storm was surging over the issue of the crown prince, he secretly avoided Jiangnan on the orders of the emperor's uncle, and investigated the Yunnan-Guizhou border and the Dali Kingdom secretly colluded in order to rebel.
On the surface, when he left Beijing this time, anyone would think that it was the protection of the emperor's uncle, and he didn't want him, the future prince with the loudest voice, to be limited to the battle for the prince, and become the son of the royal family who was eager to defeat him and ascend to the throne, but in fact?
Uncle Huang's true intentions, no one knows.
Even if he knew a thing or two about the imperial uncle, he had to pretend that the imperial uncle knew nothing about his fate and obeyed his will. Be the most obedient and commendable imperial nephew of the heavenly family.
The royal family of Beijing. There are countless children, why is he friends with Di Yong alone?
It's just because Di Yong has something in him that he has always longed for but will never be able to have.
When a person walks in the darkness for a long time, he will yearn for all the attributes of light.
Chai Shijiu looked at Di Yong and laughed again: "It's like in the past, others didn't understand why I just added your blue eyes." Ah Yong, don't you think that the eight girls of the Zeng family are as clean as the breeze and the moon? ”
The breeze is as clean as the moon.
Di Yong chewed these words, and suddenly his heart was clear, and he nodded unconsciously.
Chai Shijiucai smiled again: "I have never had a love for her. I just like it. Just like I like you. What's more, I am afraid that you and I are not able to make decisions about the marriage. You are my uncle's most proud guard, and I am his favorite nephew, and I treat me like a son. Our marriage is always decided by the emperor's uncle. So, don't ask me those stupid things again. We've rested enough, so let's hurry up. If you can't do your errand, don't even think about going back to Beijing. ”
Di Yong said: "Isn't that as you wish? ”
Chai Nineteen sighed rarely: "There are some things that I have to do." ”
Di Yong was silent. Thinking about the marriage he said, he couldn't help but lose his mind.
Chai 19 threw down a piece of broken silver, got on the horse with Di Yong, galloped away, and the two went all the way to the west.
After lunch, Banniang and Wu Sanjie, Lu Siniang and Cang'er went to the silk village, bought a lot of good Lingluo silk and satin yarn and other things, let the carriage with the carriage carry the goods, and then the four of them went to the embroidery workshop together, found the best embroidery workshop in Nanfeng City, set the pattern, detailed the requirements one by one, and left the silk, so that the embroidery workshop could return the required finished products within a month, and then they went home.
And so it was evening.
Because Wei Garden has been cleaned by people, and everything is made first, Shui Guo sent Banniang's usual bed, couch, desk and other things over, and after a little tidying, it can already be lived.
So after dinner, Banniang went back to the Wei courtyard to rest.
The new room, after all, is a little unaccustomed, waiting for Alan to take Xiao Shi to sleep, July and September also went to sleep in Pixiali, Banniang leaned on the head of the bed, there was a pair of fans, listening to the cicadas in the night outside the window, I couldn't sleep in the end, so I simply put on a tulle and went to the yard. Sit down under the crape myrtle tree, smell the flowers and think about your thoughts.
She has been in this world for two years, and in the past two years, first with a serious illness, and then with a poor family, step by step to today, it seems to be smooth sailing, and she is working hard, but in fact, only she knows best.
Because of the love of her family, she seems to slowly regard this time and space, and the family here as the support for her life. And with Lu Seventeen by his side, occasionally mentioning all kinds of previous lives, some people can also understand that this kind of life cannot be said to be unsatisfactory.
But she always felt empty in her heart.
If you can't fill it up, you can't see through it.
Something seems to be missing. But she obviously lacked nothing.
The first quarter moon of July is like a jade belt hook. With a hazy light, the sky was full of stars, and Banniang looked at it for a long time before she felt that the night was deep and heavy.
When I returned to the house, I couldn't help but be stunned when I looked at the shirt and dress that I had changed into during the day.
Fu pursed his lips again, smiled, got into bed, put down the curtain, and had a good night's sleep.
In the days that followed, I was single-mindedly busy.
Because thinking that the Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, let the pastry chef of Sheraton study the production of moon cakes, in order to make a lot of money during the Mid-Autumn Festival, and he and Wu Sanniang together, busy with the opening of the wood shop, first against the heat, ran to the timber shop in the nearby cities, bought a batch of good wood, transported to the workshop, by the Liu family father and son with a few Liu Uncle invited masters, and a few apprentices began to according to the pattern drawn by Banniang, the sample that needs to be displayed in the shop, the workshop is divided into two courtyards, the backyard to make wood, The front yard is reserved for lacquer and storage.
By the beginning of August, the first batch of samples had been rushed out and transported to the freshly assembled carpentry shop, and all the things ordered in the embroidery workshop were also delivered one by one. Banniang asked Liu Erlang and Qiao Junsheng to lead the workers in the workshop to help place the samples, and when the samples were placed, they asked Wu Sanniang and Lu Siniang to lead the maids in the two houses and several maids from the Zeng family, July and others, to come and arrange the ornaments, calligraphy and paintings.
By the time the entire carpentry shop was fully furnished and it was able to open, it was the end of August.
Wu Sanniang and Banniang stood in the shop, looking at the large and small exhibition halls that were separated out, and they all showed satisfied expressions.
Wu Sanniang said with a smile: "I can be regarded as having seen the rich, not to mention anything else, only my family, in this Nanfeng City, there is no comparison, but in this shop, when I came, I didn't want to leave." Eighth sister, if anyone says that our shop can't make money in the future, I won't believe it first. ”
Banniang said with a smile: "Sister knows the decoration of this shop, why am I so particular, I would rather spend more than a month more, but also to decorate this shop, one by one according to the requirements in place, before I plan to open?" ”
Wu Sanniang looked around, and then smiled: "Eighth sister, you are really a genius in business. You ask me why, is this a test of me? I don't care about other big things, just one point, let me tell you, I look at this room one by one, I want to go home as it is, not only the house, but also everything else. ”
Banniang covered her sleeves and smiled: "It's not in vain that I have been working hard with everyone for two months, if the third sister has such an idea, it proves that we are not working in vain." That's why I said before that if I want to cooperate with that silk village and embroidery workshop for a long time, it is not in vain. ”
"You want to sell even these trinkets or bedding?"
Banniang smiled: "Sell, why don't you sell it?" Not only does it have to be sold, but the price is half higher than elsewhere. Sister, don't underestimate these, if they sell well, the profits from these items alone will be enough to cover all our costs except for wood. ”
Wu Sanniang was puzzled: "I don't believe this, can I really do it?" ”
Banniang said: "The way is what people think, I don't believe that the guests are not moved when they see this." Besides, no matter how good the furniture is, if there is no suitable thing to match, the effect will be discounted, even if the guest can't think of it for a while, when the things are moved home, they find that no matter what, they are not so gorgeous and exquisite as they see in our shop. It's a pity that my sixth sister got married, or the soft family I designed in the future will be handed over to my sixth sister to do, how much trouble will be saved. ”
"What do you mean by a soft family?"
Wu Sanniang is used to the new words that pop out of her mouth from time to time, but some still don't quite understand what they mean, but if you think about it, you can understand it.
But Banniang thought of this, and her heart moved.
When Liu Niang was in Linchuan in the past, she was able to organize a temporary embroidery team to take over her work and sell those dolls, which can be seen in the business and is also shrewd. Nancheng County is not far from Nanfeng, and it is not very easy to worry about the embroidery workshop, why can't you say that you can move Liuniang, set up an embroidery workshop, and take over the work in their woodware shop alone?
First, you don't need to do much, as long as you recruit a few top-notch embroiderers. Second, she can also ensure the supply of goods, and she is not afraid of the things she designed to spread out, even if someone imitates it in the future, she is the one who eats the first cake.
told Wu Sanniang about this idea.
Wu Sanniang also felt reliable, and the two simply asked someone to send pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and wrote a letter to Liuniang on the spot, and sent it over.
