An Ge's idea was this: find the most well-known painter in the whole capital, paint a portrait of Jing Lan, and then use the white drawing as the base to make Jing Lan's portrait stereotype, and then print it on the front page of the Di newspaper to attract people to sell.

Dali has long had an illustration book, and it is not difficult to draw illustrations, but it involves cost. If you only print words, movable type printing is enough, and you can put illustrations and pictures to be painted and engraved, which costs a lot of money, and it is basically useless when you run out.

The price of books is generally much more expensive than Di Bao, and the books are more widely circulated, not only in the capital, but also in the whole of Dali. However, because of its timeliness and the particularity of dissemination, Di Bao spends money to engrave pictures, how many copies must be printed after engraving, and how much a copy is sold for must be calculated so as not to lose money.

After An Ge came up with this idea, he sat there muttering, pinching his fingers to calculate, Jing Lan looked at her with a chin and a smile, and asked, "What idea did you come up with?" What sacrifices my hue? What the hell are you going to do? ”

An Ge didn't say anything.

Jing Lan saw that she was still thinking about ignoring herself for a long time, so she smiled and said to Steward Cao, who was busy outside: "Uncle Cao, come over with an abacus and give Miss An a good calculation." ”

An Ge was interrupted like this, forgot all the numbers he had just calculated, glanced at him with a twisted eyebrow, suppressed his anger again, and said, "The general will go and meet Zhang Luo'er, and then come and talk to the general when I calculate how much it will cost." ”

With that, she really got up to leave.

Jing Lan looked at her steadily, her eyes dark, and asked, "You asked me to see Zhang Luo'er?" She really wants to stay in the General's Mansion permanently. ”

An Ge looked strange, hadn't he already talked about this topic? The General's Mansion was not opened by her, what qualification does she have not to let Zhang Luo'er in?

Oh! That's right! An Ge suddenly thought of something, and suddenly became nervous, her expression fell on Jing Lan's eyes, and Jing Lan's heart also skipped a beat, did she finally realize it?

"By the way, you must not let Zhang Luo'er know that "Beijing Daily" is operated by you behind your back, and I hosted it, and we are competitors with them in the end, you know?"

…… Jing Lan's heart skipped back, it seemed that this elm-headed woman was real, and she really wouldn't have any ideas.

Ah, forget it, take your time, people have already deceived their own men anyway.

"You go, I'll send someone to pick up Zhang Luo'er." Jinglan said in a deep voice.

An Ge nodded, he really didn't care, just at this time, Steward Cao really took an abacus, An Ge took it, thanked Steward Cao and left.

Over there, An Ge went back to calculate the cost, and here Jinglan really sent someone to carry the sedan chair to the gate of the Dibao Mansion and pick up Zhang Luo'er.

When Zhang Luoer heard the person at the door in the side hall and Liu saying that General Jing had sent someone to pick her up, her hand shook, and the ink-stained pen fell to the half-written article with a "snap", but she didn't have the heart to care, so she was busy in the small room behind to tidy up her makeup, and then came out, Liu Yongxu explained a few more words to her, and she got on the sedan chair in the General's Mansion.

Zhang Luo'er secretly made up her mind in the sedan chair, the last time she was disturbed by An Ge's good deeds, this time, no matter what, she will have a substantial breakthrough with Jinglan.

And this time Jinglan obviously attaches importance to her, and she is more sure in her heart.

When her feet stepped into the threshold of the General's Mansion again, Zhang Luo'er found that the General's Mansion seemed to be more magnificent than last time, although in this area close to the Imperial Palace, the General's Mansion could not have an entire mountain and lake like those gardens in the suburbs.

But it's already the biggest and best mansion in the area.

It wasn't long before she was hers.

When she saw Jing Lan, Jing Lan was having dinner. Zhang Luoer greeted him, and Jinglan thought about asking her to go down first and ask Steward Cao to arrange a room for her.

Anyway, he suddenly wanted to call her over at that time, in order to be angry with An Ge, to see if An Ge was jealous, how did he know that An Ge ignored him at all, Fang Cai Ning Jiu came over to report that An Ge was still calculating the cost of the mansion in his small courtyard.

Steward Cao was on the side, and when he saw a trace of embarrassment flashing on Zhang Luoer's face, he was relieved and asked with a smile, "Miss Zhang hasn't had dinner yet?" ”

Zhang Luo'er nodded, and glanced at Jing Lan delicately, thinking that Jing Lan should ask her to sit down and eat together at this time, right, Jing Lan couldn't finish the meal on that table alone......

Jing Lan, who was picking up chopsticks to pick up the vegetables, seemed to have suddenly thought of something, and glanced at Zhang Luo'er, which almost made Zhang Luo'er unstable.

"Since you haven't eaten, let's sit down and eat together." Jing Lan suddenly said with a smile.

Zhang Luo'er's face turned red, Jing Lan didn't have this attitude towards her last time, that time all day, Jing Lan didn't smile at her, and the whole person was very indifferent.

And this time...... Zhang Luoer held back the joy in her heart, bent her knees and thanked Jinglan, and sat down.

Jinglan said to Steward Cao again: "Uncle Cao, go and call An Ge and Yuan Qulu over and eat together." ”

Steward Cao answered and hurried away.

When Zhang Luo'er heard the name of "An Ge", she instantly felt suffocated, and was stunned for a long time before she muttered, "An ...... An Ge is also in the General's Mansion? ”

"Hmm." Jing Lan nodded casually.

Zhang Luo'er lowered her head, could it be that An Ge disappeared these days, and he came to the mansion to report it? Biting his lower lip, he calmed down after a while, and said softly: "General Jing, Miss An is a beautiful girl, is there anything wrong with living in a man's house and sitting and eating with a man?" ”

Jing Lan glanced at her and couldn't help laughing: "Aren't you also sitting down, and you're also going to live in my general's mansion, it's okay if you do it yourself, it's not appropriate for An Ge?" The truth of the world is all made up by your family? ”

Zhang Luo'er's heart was stagnant, and she was almost out of breath, but she was so ashamed and ashamed that she grabbed the gown on her knees with both hands.

She thought ...... thought that he was different in Jinglan's heart, why did he compare her with An Ge?

After a while, An Ge and Yuan Qilu were rescued, but in fact, An Ge had calculated the account, thinking that he would tell Jinglan by the way after eating, so he didn't refuse.

She came in and saw Zhang Luo'er sitting next to Jinglan with her head down and her face red, thinking of the matter of the Di Bao Mansion, she also had an unnatural smile on her face, and sat down beside her.

An Ge didn't pay attention to her, but he didn't expect Zhang Luo'er to laugh affectionately, and said to An Ge: "Sister An, I haven't seen you for a long time, I thought that you would go back to Yangzhou after Lord Liu drove you away that day, but I didn't expect to live in the General's Mansion all the time." ”

An Ge heard that the person was not good, looked at her, and suddenly smiled: "Luo'er, why are you here too?" Is it that you can't write anymore, so you come to the General's Mansion again to look for any articles that you can copy? ”

Zhang Luo'er's face turned from red to white, and her eyes when she looked at An Ge were full of sourness and resentment, even if she also lived in the General's Mansion, she dared to show her face for plagiarism in front of the general!

There is nothing worth talking about at all about his family background, only self

His own literary brilliance is also worth mentioning. In these years, men in the world always look up to talented women. But An Ge actually said this to Jinglan's face!

Zhang Luo'er's eyes were red, she stood up "rubbing", and knelt on the ground again, looking at Jinglan pitifully: "General, I really don't know where I offended Sister An, Sister An will say this about me as soon as we meet, when Sister An was driven out of the mansion by Lord Liu because she was too arrogant, I also interceded for Sister An, I don't ask Sister An to give me anything in return, I just ask Sister An to stop suppressing me for the sake of my loneliness......"

An Ge looked at her silently, but Jing Lan asked with interest, "What other bad things has An Ge done?" Let's talk about it. ”

"Sister An......" Zhang Luoer was overjoyed, and really wanted to say all of An Ge's dislike in one go, but she reacted immediately, which also seemed to be too bad to say it directly.

She thought about it for a while, seemed to be a little reluctant, looked at An Ge deeply, lowered her head in fear, and said, "Sister An, there is nothing bad about it." It's all Luo'er's fault, she was in the Dibao Mansion before, and it was because Luo'er occupied Sister An's position that Sister An hated Luo'er. In short, it's all Luo'er's fault. ”

These words not only expressed that she was more talented than An Ge, and as soon as she went, she occupied An Ge's position in the Di Bao Mansion, and confirmed that An Ge really hated her and bullied her.

Jinglan nodded and asked, "Is there anything else?" ”

Zhang Luo'er shook her head and said, "No, there is nothing bad about Sister An, it's all Luo'er's fault." No matter what the general asked, anyway, Luo'er just said a word, it was Luo'er's fault, and it was not Sister An's business. ”

Jing Lan nodded, looked at An Ge again, and asked, "Why haven't you explained?" ”

An Ge burst out laughing, looked at Jing Lan and said, "My father is a Qing official and general also knows, so when I was a child, my father never had the money to take me to the big play. ”

As soon as he said this, let alone Jinglan, even Yuan Qilu, who had been holding a straight face beside him, couldn't hold back and laughed.

Zhang Luo'er was still dying and struggling: "I can't understand what Sister An said......

"You can't understand me when I say it so clearly, so it's no wonder that your brain can't write an article and you have to copy me." An Ge sighed helplessly, and persuaded sincerely, "Don't worry about how to provoke me all day long, read more books, I believe that you can also write articles by yourself one day." ”

"Sister Ann is still going to continue to humiliate me?" Zhang Luoer covered her face and cried bitterly.

An Ge was really speechless, no matter how she reasoned, Zhang Luoer had one way: pretending to be pitiful.

"General Jing, can we eat? Hungry. Ange simply ignored her.

Jing Lan smiled again, looking at An Ge's eyes with an incomparably gentle light.

Zhang Luo'er looked at Jing Lan and lost her mind, at that moment, she wished that Jing Lan's smiling face was facing her.

But soon, her attention was drawn back from the dream, and she looked at An Ge with hatred, as if she was going to eat her in her stomach.

After a long breath, Zhang Luo'er's eyes flickered, and she suddenly said to An Ge: "Sister An, I know that you have a strong tongue, and no one in the Dibao Mansion can say anything about you, and I can't say anything about you, but you insult my innocence so much, how can my daughter's family stand it?" Today, I will die in front of Sister An! ”

After that, Zhang Luoer stood up and slammed into the wall, as if he was really going to die here.
