After Laba, the carriages of various families and provinces began to fill the streets to send New Year's gifts to each other.

This year, if anyone can get the cooked silk of Songzhu Zhai and sprinkle gold paper to give away, it will be really a face-saving thing! Especially cooked silk, it is something that the emperor himself praised! It's a pity that Songzhuzhai cherishes feathers and refuses to let go at all: a horse in January is a horse! It was useless to discuss again, so everyone had to buy some flower notes to make up for their regrets.

Who wants to even make flower notes a hot item!

Xue Tao's note won with dyeing, and Bai Tang took another way to publish the poem of "Famous Paintings". Hence the name, each painting is taken from the paintings of the ancients.

The light yellow paper, a vivid red slender carp in the water waves, is from "A Group of Fish Playing Algae". On the pale blue paper is the white crane in the "Crane Picture". The pale cyan paper is printed with Cui Bai's wild geese, and the gray and white feathers are depicted in detail. The color and composition of this set of poems are perfectly compatible, novel and chic, and in order to prevent other companies from buying pirated copies, the whole manager only sells them to familiar large customers. The people who bought it were pleasantly surprised, and when they took it out to show off, everyone knew that Songzhu Zhai had a new product, but they were told when they came to buy it: "It's a VIP exclusive New Year's gift!" It's sold out! ”

Naturally, someone asks, "VIP?" How can you be considered a guest of honor in your Songzhu Zhai? ”

The steward said with a smile: "If you spend a certain amount of silver in our store within a year, you are our honored guests." If there are any new products, limited editions, and commemorative editions, we will give priority to notification! ”

The crowd was silent for a moment, and immediately someone said, "I'll pay you the money now!" Can I become a VIP too? ”

The whole steward was stunned: "Now, now?" ”

The man's mind spun very fast: "Yes! I'll put the money with you, and every time you buy something, you can just deduct my money! It will definitely run out in a year, and if it can't be used up, it's mine! ”

The steward was dumbfounded: Is this okay?

Bai Tang happened to hear this, and he was also surprised: Isn't this a membership system? All right!

Bai Tang pushed the boat down the river and accepted the first batch of members in the Ming Dynasty!

Songzhuzhai guests came to the door, and the carriages and horses that delivered New Year's goods did not stop. After Wei Guogong, the Qin Mansion, the Ye family, and the big and small peers in the city all rushed to give gifts to Bai Tang, and the small courtyard was full of all kinds of New Year's goods, and Bai Lan and her mother were busy sorting and classifying. Wan Niang brought pen and ink to help keep accounts. Her words are unexpectedly tall and handsome, and she doesn't see half of a woman's weakness.

Bai Tang was quite surprised: It is not strange that a girl who lifts people can write well. I just faintly feel that it is a miracle that Wan Niang's old lady Liu, a vulgar and powerful mother-in-law, can raise a girl like Wan Niang!

Su remembered that last year, when the mother was kicked out of the house when it was cold, Songzhu Zhai was so cold that there was no bed to warm the quilt. This year, there is plenty of food and clothing, and I let out a long sigh, like in a dream.

"Wan Niang," she couldn't help but relieve Wan Niang, who had been depressed recently, "As for people, there will always be times when the tide rises and falls." You see that my house is so lively now, do you know the tragic situation of our mother and wife at this time last year? Endure it, what sin can't be overcome? What's more, a smart person like you, even if you don't marry in the future, you can live happily by relying on your own skills. In the past, let them blow up with firecrackers! ”

Wan Niang raised her eyebrows and smiled, bowing slightly.

"Madam, there is another person who delivers New Year's goods!" There was no joy on the face of the whole manager, and he looked at Wan Niang and said, "It was sent by Chen Ju's family." ”

Wan Niang changed color slightly, and then listened to the whole steward: "Chen Juren personally sent it." said that he still wanted to see Wan Niang. ”

Su Shiha's voice: "He still has the face to see Wanniang?" Bai Lan pulled her sleeve: After all, he is someone's own brother, and he is a lifter, so it's not good to be too offended. It was Su Shi who pursed his lips and said to Wan Niang Wen Yan: "Wan Niang can you want to see him?" ”

Wan Niang shook her head without hesitation.

Unexpectedly, Su Shi patted her hand lightly and said, "Why don't you see it?" Let them see how well you can live by your own ability! ”

Wan Niang thought for a while, and finally nodded with a smile: The Liu family was defeated, and the formation was not dead. He who goes forward and one after the other calculates himself. Today, simply teach Chen Lin to die!

So she pointed to the small courtyard she rented next door, indicating that she would like to see Chen Lin over there.

Bai Tang clapped his hands and said with a smile: "The master is here in person, I, the boss of Songzhu Zhai, always want to see me!" ”

Chen Lin behaved elegantly and spoke politely and thoughtfully. Seeing Bai Tang, he took a long time: "Chen Lin has long admired the name of Songzhuzhai." Lian Gongzi is a young talent, and he admires it. ”

Bai Tang looked at his delicate appearance and humble attitude with a slight sneer, and did not answer, but hung him for a while before he smiled: "Chen Juren, Bai Tang has also admired your name for a long time!" ”

Chen Lin's white face turned red: "There is a son of labor training to take care of my family, Chen Lin is ashamed!" ”

Yo, do you know how ashamed you are?

Bai Tang was born in a metropolis in his previous life, and he has also seen many cases of patriarchy. It is hateful and pathetic for parents who raise a boy with the strength of the whole family and never give up until their daughter is crushed dry, because their son with high hopes often can't hold up to the wall, and ends up becoming a waste of inheritance.

Is Chen Lin really ashamed? Did you go early?

"Chen Juren doesn't have to be ashamed." Bai Tang was angry with him, "If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have had the opportunity to ask Wan Niang to be my offering to Songzhu Zhai!" ”

Chen Lin's eyes really crossed a trace of hatred: Hitting people without slapping their faces, practicing Baitang is too much to bully people! But what about him? Knock out your teeth and swallow them in your stomach. Automatically ignoring Bai Tang's malice, he laughed and said, "I don't know if Wan Niang is there?" Lian Gongzi won't stop our sister and brother from seeing each other, right? ”

"How could Chen Juren think like this?" Bai Tang pretended to be puzzled, "I'm not such a ruthless, unrighteous and unreasonable person!" Seeing Chen Lin grinding his teeth, Bai Tangfang smiled, "Please ask Chen Juren to come with me." ”

Chen Lin took a deep breath. Follow Bai Tang to the courtyard where Wan Niang lived, and saw that the flowers and trees in the small courtyard were sparse, and the layout was clean and elegant, and he couldn't stop thanking Bai Tang.

Bai Tang smiled lightly: "Wan Niang is my family's business partner, and talents who are hard to find in the world are naturally to be worshipped!" ”

Chen Lin nodded again and again, and said with a smile of relief: "Wan Niang is blessed!" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, a figure turned into the cloister of the courtyard. Thin and slender, graceful.

Chen Lin stepped forward quickly, only looking at Wan Niang, with a mixture of joy, embarrassment, and guilt on his face. After a long time, he choked up and called, "Wanniang, I'm coming to see you!" ”

Somehow, Bai Tang's arm immediately formed a layer of thick pockmarks.

Wan Niangdai raised her eyebrows slightly, did not hide the mockery in her eyes, only looked at him coldly, and asked with her lips: Why are you here?

"Wan Niang!" Chen Lin's eyes were red, "My mother and I broke your heart." I'm sorry for you. You blame me and blame me, I understand. ”

Wan Niang listened lightly, unmoved.

Chen Lin was stunned and continued: "It was because I was worried that the Li family would not accept the widowed sister, so I said that my mother would leave you in Ruyifang. It's all my fault. It is I who is selfish and ungrateful. ”

Wan Niang's eyebrows frowned slightly, and her eyes gradually showed hesitation: What did he want to do with this?

Chen Lin cried and said, "It's me who is sorry for you." But this matter has nothing to do with the mother. She didn't get you home last time, and she fell ill not long after, and she was talking about you in her dreams. Wan Niang, thinking about a mother-daughter relationship, can you go back and see her? ”

Wan Niang hooked her lips and sneered.

Chen Lin said again: "It looks like the New Year is coming. You always have to go home for a reunion dinner, right? ”

Bai Tang raised his eyebrows: It turned out that he was waiting for him here! Chen Lin's request is reasonable, but it is not easy to refuse. For the New Year, I must be going to take Wanniang's annual leave. If Wan Niang refuses to even eat with her mother at the reunion dinner, she can't say anything. I'm afraid that it will spread out, and it will not be good for Wanniang's reputation. As for what the Chen family wants to calculate, we have to see if he can let them calculate!

So he coughed lightly twice and said, "Wanniang, since your brother said so." You should do it. Filial piety comes first. ”

Wan Niang glanced at Chen Lin deeply and nodded in agreement.

"Good. Chinese New Year's Eve, I will send a carriage to pick you up! Chen Lin was overjoyed. As long as people enter his house, she can't help herself!

Wan Niang looked at his back, her eyes were as cold as the ice edges under the eaves.

"Wan Niang, don't worry." Bai Tang comforted her, "I will definitely arrange it for you." ”

Wan Niang made a thank you gift: There is Lao Dong's family.
