+++++++++++++++++++ the dividing line between the marriage of a loving mother and my son (VII).

Chen Biyan flipped through the outline of the major events of Baicaotang in the past few days sent by Lian'er, and put it aside.

"I've been busy these days, and I forgot an important thing, Mother Chen, you asked someone to inform the general manager of the general ledger room, Li Jian, to come and see me. Then bring me the box I asked you to pack yesterday. ”

A half-foot-long mahogany box with a quaint pattern, but this pattern is not common. Chen Biyan gently stroked the box, and Lian'er felt that the old lady had some nostalgia or complicated emotions for this box, as if she was recalling something.

The box lies on a set of red gold heads, and the style is very simple and elegant. There are two rows of white porcelain bottles next to the head, which look like pills, each bottle has a small label, and there is a jade comb and a very thick jade next to the bottle, without carving, it is a boxy piece of jade, which looks like a piece of tofu.

"This box and a set of red gold noodles here were given to me by a close friend of mine when I was younger, and he specially ordered them for skilled craftsmen." Chen Biyan picked up a hairpin and twisted it gently, revealing the hollow in the middle, "You take it back and play slowly, I rarely walk alone on the rivers and lakes now, and I don't need these things anymore." These antidotes and life-sustaining medicines are renewed every five years, and the formula is placed on the lower layer of the box. ”

With that, she lifted the top of the box, revealing two booklets and some receipts underneath.

"In addition to the recipe of the medicine, there are also the title deeds of several wineries in Jiangnan and Beijing. There are also the title deeds of all Baiyuzhai in Jiangnan. You may not know when you were in Jiangnan that Baiyuzhai has tofu workshops and restaurants in the big towns in Jiangnan. At first, it was famous for making tofu, but gradually it became a variety of vegetarian dishes. Bai Yuzhai started with tofu and delivered tofu to large families in the city every day. The proprietress of Bai Yuzhai in every city is called the White Lady, and the mother-in-law under the White Lady is best at making tofu, stinky dry, tofu skin and bean curd, etc., so she has also made friends with the cooks of large families around the world. In most things in Jiangnan, almost all the white ladies have a way to inquire. The details of each of the white jade houses are in this booklet. The White Lady only obeys the order of those who have the order of white jade tofu. Bai Yuzhai does not belong to the Tang family, but it is a big help for the Tang family in Jiangnan. This was built with my sisters when I was younger, and this white jade tofu order is a piece of our hands. Now except for the queen mother in the palace, everyone else has left us. This token was scattered, one was in the queen mother in the palace, one was in the jade gate in Jiangnan, one was in the hands of your grandmother, and I temporarily took care of it after the accident of the Zhou family, which was in this box, and the other one I gave to your Aunt Xiaoxiao back then. In the early years, I handed over this Bai Yu Zhai to your Aunt Xiaoxiao to take care of, and at that time she once said that she would take good care of it, so that Bai Yu Zhai would not only be in Jiangnan, but also in the capital. Over the years, after your aunt became a monk, she has been taking care of her close maid Yingzi back then. Now I hand over this white jade order to you, and I hope you can make it to the capital. Eiko will return to Kansai before the year, and she will tell you everything in detail at that time. ”

Lian'er knew that the old lady could actually wait until Yingzi arrived in Kansai to give her all this, and now she took it out early, just because of the messages that have been flying all over the sky in the past few days. The old man didn't want to talk about it, but just used actions to make her understand her importance.

After Chief Manager Li Jian came, he was brought in directly by Chen's mother. Chen Biyan didn't say much to this old subordinate, and went straight to the point: "The accounts of the gold shop and the winery that Xiaoxiao married at the beginning don't need to be handed over to me from now on, they will be handed over directly to the white girl, and all the mediation will be used by the white girl." ”

Although Li Jian was a little surprised when he heard this, he didn't show it. These properties were the dowry of the old lady at the beginning, and the aunt gave the aunt as a dowry when she got married. After my aunt's accident, my aunt and grandmother brought it back, and he has been taking care of it all the time. All the income is not included in the general account of Tang Zhuang, but is stored separately, according to Tang Xiaoxiao's confession back then, these are the private rooms of the future third young master after settling down, and now it is given to the white girl, Isn't it to confirm the rumors outside about the marriage of the third young master and the white girl, and also veto the remarks of the eldest lady Zhang Luo now to the third young master. When the old lady behaved like this, didn't she secretly slap her in the face again. Li Jian was a little sweaty when he thought of this, and he didn't know how the eldest lady would react at that time. After so many years, the old lady still hasn't thought about the problem of treating her daughter-in-law, and she still looks at her unpleasantly. It's just that he never gives his wife a face in public, but he directly ignores the existence of his wife in his intentional or unintentional actions, and doesn't take the wife from the Earl's Court in his eyes at all. For decades, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have been living like young mothers to ignorant children.

Following Chen Biyan to the north and south for decades, constantly expanding the power and family business of the Tang family, Li Jian has long practiced the incorruptible body of King Kong, although he was full of slander and snickering at the childish behavior of his master, but his face was unusually calm, as if he just heard Chen Biyan tell him to report on daily affairs, and gave Lian'er a general introduction to the main shops in several big cities.

Xinjie hurriedly returned to Xianyang City from Donglin to deal with the affairs, and after the lights were on, he wanted to go to Lian'er's favorite pastry shop to buy some pastries, and went out of the city before the city gate was locked. As soon as he got off the horse at the door of the shop and stepped on the steps of the shop, he saw He Liangwei coming out of it with a snack.

"Yo, isn't this our hero? Shouldn't you be busy with blind dates right now? How can I have time to buy food at the pastry shop? Could it be that a young lady fell in love with her, and specially came to buy snacks to please her? ”

The disdain in He Liangwei's eyes made him feel a little uncomfortable, Since he was a child, this kid has never looked at him like this: "What nonsense are you talking about?!" Thanks to Lian'er, I've invited you to drink tea in the Zhuangzi a few times, and every time I asked you to bring this ice orange cake to her, you are standing here now and talking nonsense, and you are not afraid that she will not let you go to the Zhuangzi to drink her tea next time? ”

"To be your friend, I really don't know if I will have the face to ask the white girl for tea in the future. I knew that you would treat her like this, Ah Zhi and I would not have helped match you at the beginning, it really hurt such a good girl, it is not an exaggeration to marry which family to be the grandmother of the main house, and I prefer you to be a concubine like a prodigal son, so that those of us who are friends feel that we have no face to see her. It's better for you to let go and let our brother give her a good in-law, so that she can live a stable life, and at least make my heart feel better. You see that people are an orphan girl and they do this, which is too much. Ah Zhi and I really helped the wrong person. Then he turned his head and wanted to leave.

Where did Xinjie let him go, and fished it back: "You make it clear, what is a concubine?" What is the main house grandma? ”

"You won't say you don't know that your wife is all over the city to marry you, right? You are a big hero, you are out of the limelight, and you saved the nobles of a city with a wave of your hand, and you will not look down on other people's white girls. Don't talk about the prefect lady, the daughter of the Overseer, I really can't look down on them with any eye, but you have done the best for those mundane grievances. ”

As usual, Lilian'er in Tangzhuang went to the big study after dinner to continue her medical studies. In a huge study, she sat alone in front of a huge desk, and the flickering candlelight looked a little thin and lonely to her figure.

The two little girls on duty outside the door whispered: "This person can really settle down, It's time to read and read books." ”

"What if you can't see it, it's not the life of a concubine. No matter how much she reads, she is just an orphan girl who runs away, and she can't become a noble girl. ”

"Yes, but it seems that my wife usually doesn't like the third young master very much, but this time the meeting is so serious, obviously the third young master saved his wife this time, moved his wife, and wanted to say good family affairs for the third young master."

"It's not quite, it is said that many female families rushed to discuss the third young master. It was the third young master who was too majestic that day, which made the young ladies moved. ”

"Also, in the past, those young ladies thought that the third young lady was born to a concubine and not a wife, and she once married a lowly woman like Lan Xin, although she didn't worship the church, but it was uncomfortable to say anything. Now no one mentions this anymore, and they all feel that Sanshao is a big hero, how heroic and handsome. ”

"It's really a time and a moment."

"Yes, but Miss Cousin is pitiful."

"Every man has his own fate, and some things are to accept his fate."

"But then again, with Miss Cousin's character, this stability, it is really rare to be able to calm down and study at this time, even if it is those noble girls, that is, the parents are more noble, and I don't necessarily have it to be really good, maybe it is far worse than Miss Cousin." As she was talking, this girl suddenly felt a gust of wind blowing around her, and looked at the flowers and trees around her without moving, and thought that she felt wrong, and before she could react, she heard someone talking in the study, it was none other than the third young master.

When Xinjie came, his ears were good, and he heard the discussion of these two girls from afar, and his brows furrowed. Looking at the lonely and beautiful figure reflected in the window paper, where could he wait and walk slowly.

Lian'er was just about to stand up and go to the bookshelf to find another book, when she felt a cold rush over, and then she was enclosed in a warm embrace, and her neck was tickled by the breath that she carried when she spoke, and her heart fluttered for a while, and she didn't care what he was talking about.

Seeing that she didn't react after talking for a long time, he was anxious: "Are you really angry?" I really didn't know my wife would do that. If you're really unhappy, let's get out of here now, leave this big crowd of people, find a place with beautiful mountains and rivers, and let the two of us live in peace, and have nothing to do with this place in the future. ”

"Do you want to spoil your concubine and kill your wife?"

"As long as you are happy, spoil the concubine and kill the wife, spoil the wife and kill the concubine, whatever you like. It doesn't matter if you are a wife or a concubine, I just spoil you. ”

"I don't want to compete with people for men."

"You don't need to rob it, I'll help you grab it, can I dedicate myself automatically?"

The two girls on duty at the door now feel that their faces are red to the base of their necks, although they are not very old, but I heard the older girls say, At this moment, the three young people really deduce this, so that they don't blush.
