Mama Zhao occasionally came to talk to Xia, and also let Xia Li borrow light to listen to a lot of "gossip" in the capital. For example, the Hou Qi family, who made a fortune by women, also made a fortune by women, and the Hou Qiu family, who also made a fortune by women......

Xia Li figured out that it was because of the deep sisterhood between the Empress Dowager Qi and the Qi family, Qiu Ze's straw bag not only kept the title of Marquis of Dongjin left by his ancestors, but also became a second-grade official.

Also because of the relationship between the queen mother, the Qiu family dared to accept the two peerless bows of the criminal minister Yang Fan, although they were impeached by many courtiers, the emperor did not deal with them. Moreover, the size of Qi Shita is shameless, and he often walks around with Yang An'an's jewelry, which makes people look down on him.

Xia Li consciously understood why Qiu Jili had failed Yang An'an, he, like his father, was exchanging women for his future...... It's even more scum than she imagined!

Xiao Qi's son is named Qiu Zhonghe, ten years old this year, two years older than his grandfather Qiu Ze, who has been studying for several years and can write no more than twenty words. Qiu Jili has only two sons, one and one concubine. He likes the clever Qiu Zhongshu very much and has always raised him in Hecheng. I don't know who the big and small Qi clan heard that Qiu Jili wanted to put Secretary Qiu Zhong under the original name, and when Qiu Jili went out on business, their people forcibly took Qiu Zhongshu and his aunt to the capital, and soon the aunt died of "illness", and Qiu Zhongshu was nowhere to be found......

also knew that Ye Feng turned out to be a prodigy, and he created many of the most in the capital. He has had the right idea since he was a child, and once he sees the direction, he doesn't listen to anyone......

After a long time, the Xia family also came back to their senses, and Mama Zhao should have gotten Ye Feng's gesture to say this. Ye Feng's attitude was to stand on the opposite side of Qiu Mansion with Xia Li, and he really took Lili to heart now. In the future, if Lili has a greater conflict with his future and family interests, will he unswervingly advance and retreat with Lili? Xia was happy and worried, and there were many contradictions in his heart, but there was nothing he could do.

At the end of October 15, Zhu Er dug up half a basket of potatoes. The current caramo hasn't grown up yet, so dig it up and try it. Brought together, there was also half a cart of bamboo made by Peng camels.

Zhu Er said with a smile, "Brother Peng said that the bamboo pieces for weaving these bamboo utensils were all bought in the morning, especially the spotted bamboo strips and purple bamboo strips that I bought at the shop introduced by the third uncle, and it cost a lot of money to ask someone to buy the road fee, and the total cost is ten and two hundred wen." He and his family worked day and night for two months, hoping to sell it for thirteen yuan. If you can't sell it, you can do it. If it goes any lower, they will work in vain. ”

Xia Li looked at it, these things are very exquisite, especially the six large vases and two flower arrangement stands, three pairs of Go boxes, using the color difference between the front and back of the bamboo or the color difference of different bamboos to weave patterns and fonts, and the shape is unique, extending what Xia Li said before better, there is a thick and low-key beauty, far beyond Xia Li's imagination, so she prefers to call it a handicraft.

Again, God closed the door and opened the window, but I didn't expect Peng Huozi to have this artistic cell.

Xia Li really wanted to buy two large vases to put in the hall by herself, and another flower arrangement stand to put in her side room. In the end, she only decided to buy a basket to make a sewing basket and a bamboo bag, and take the rest outside to help Aunt Peng become famous.

She had already told Manager He that she would take some bamboo weaving utensils to the provincial capital and sell them on consignment in the tea shop under Ye Feng's name. The other part will be consigned in Xiangliu Curie.

However, the thirteen yuan was too small, Xia Li was not very knowledgeable, and he also felt that such a good work of art should be worth at least twenty taels of silver.

In this era, money is equivalent to a tael of silver.

Xia Li came out with a large part and asked Tian Qing and his wife to go to Ye Mansion to find Manager He. They all went to the door and stopped again.

With such a rarity as potato, I invited Mr. He and Mama Zhao to dinner, and then talked about selling bamboo. I was embarrassed to invite my husband, so I asked Xia Juhe Xiaoqi to take a third of the potatoes and give them to Ye Mansion.

Mama Zhao came back with Xia Ju. She smiled and said, "Miss Xia, you invited us, why didn't you invite my husband?" ”

Xia Li said with a smile, "His old man is so tall, we are from a small family, how can we be embarrassed to invite him to dinner without anything." ”

Mama Zhao smiled again, "Please don't invite it, don't come to see his old man's meaning." ”

Oh, yes, too.

Xia Li smiled, and asked Xia Ju to hurry up and invite the old man.

A quarter of an hour later, Xia Ju ran back and said with a smile, "Grandfather Ye has agreed to come to dinner." ”

If the great god is coming, he must not only add food, but also invite guests. Xia Li asked Tian Qing to go to the military camp to invite Xia Shan and Zhao Liang to come to dinner in the evening, and it was best to come back earlier.

Zhao Niuniu on the side jumped up happily, "I don't have to go home to cook." ”

Xia Li drew up a menu with potatoes. Roasted pork ribs with yaw, sand sapano puree, barbecue yamo, shredded carba, the first two things are prepared first, and the last two things should be made fresh.

Tian Qing's family just needs to cook a few more good dishes.

Hearing that Shen's private school was out of school, Xia Li asked Xia Ju to call Erhu over for dinner, and asked Xiao Qi to go to Xia Zhu's house to talk about it.

At the time of the unitary time, not only Ye Laoguo came, but even Ye Feng and Liu Changzhao came, and the two dogs and one bear and the general manager He, Ye Li, and Ye Jin followed behind them. Ye Li and Ye Jin each held a package, saying that it was a gift from Miss Zeng and Fourth Master Zeng, as well as the food that Ye and Liu bought for the Xia family in the provincial capital.

Ye Feng and Liu Changzhao's hair was tied on the top of their heads with hostas, they did not wear crowns, they were still a little wet, and the fragrance of soaphorn on their bodies was also very obvious. They must have only returned home shortly after washing.

Xia Li and Ye Feng glanced at each other, and their mood instantly brightened. She had too many words in her heart to confide in him.

Ye Feng was wearing a bamboo-blue robe, and his temperament was as clean as the faint white clouds in the sky. He looked at Xia Li, his eyes lit up, and he grinned.

And Liu Changzhao has changed a lot, he has only not seen him for more than ten days, and he feels that he has grown taller and wider again, and the expression on his face is much more restrained and peaceful, without the dragging and awkward arrogance of the past.

Looking at this fast-growing teenager, Xia Li couldn't stop sighing, people must grow, but growing up too fast is also distressing.

When they entered the East Chamber, the old man was still joking about Liu Changzhao, "In the matter of finding a daughter-in-law, you are much stronger than Feng'er, he has to learn from you......"

Liu Changzhao glanced at Xia Li, who came to serve tea, and blushed. said, "I can't compare to my cousin, he has his own mother and grandfather to help him, he can be willful, but I can't." He hurriedly said, "If my aunt can persuade the emperor to marry me and my cousin Qingqing, it will also be my blessing." ”

Ye Feng said, "Miss Zeng is very good, it is indeed your blessing to be able to marry her." ”

There are four more big stomachs, and there are more dishes, so Xia Li asked Tian Qing to go to a nearby restaurant to buy a few lo-mei and come back.
