++++++++++++++++++ the dividing line of Luoyang trip (X) (middle).

At the first moment when Fang Yan appeared, Xinjie knew that his trouble was coming, His eyes had been focused on her in his mind, but he saw her casually throwing out such a sentence, although she looked calm on the surface, Fang Yan estimated that she would not please her hands, but he knew her better as the person next to him, and he was afraid that he had already scolded him at this time, and he had to go back and coax him. Fangyan, this little girl, really doesn't save him trouble.

"It's Yan'er, we're talking about business here, you little kid don't make trouble here, let's go out and play."

"People are not children, last month my mother gave me a ceremony, people are adults, the eldest young master was in Luoyang at that time, and gave me a lot of things. Didn't Brother Jie prepare a gift for me? ”

"I really don't know. Go back and let Steward Zhou take you into the city to Xianghua Zhai to pick one and record it in my account. ”

"I know you're not short of money, but it's insincere, I want you to go with me by yourself, pick it out and put it on for me personally."

"I've been very busy lately, and I don't have time, so let Manager Zhou take you to pick your heart slowly."

"Steward Zhou is such an old-fashioned old woman who understands something, I want you to accompany me to go shopping and pick it out. You haven't been to Luoyang for many years, and you haven't taken Yan'er to the street for five or six years. ”

Xinjie was a little impatient, five or six years ago she was still a child, just followed her widowed mother to settle here, because of the loss of her father and brother, at that time Fang's face was dull and thin, he was in sympathy, when he went to the city to do errands, he let people take her out for a walk, and after shopping for a long time, he showed his lively nature. and soon revealed his presumptuous nature. Over the years, one is that he rarely comes over, and he rarely sees her in a hurry, and the other is that he has always thought that she is a child, and he usually does not pay much attention to her. If she hadn't called herself Yan'er just now, he wouldn't have reacted for a while, this is Fang Yan, the niece of the second aunt's family. Fang Yan's father was the elder brother of Tang Wei's wife, and he was also in Tang Wei's army at the beginning. After the death, Mrs. Tang's sister-in-law, Mrs. Ju, took her daughter to live in Luoyang. Mrs. Ju was born in Luoyang Zhu, the Zhu family is not only famous for winemaking, but also the descendants of the Zhu family are all ancestral good martial arts. Mrs. Ju is even older than Mrs. Zhu, and she has a deep attainment in a secret weapon and a mandarin duck sword. Although the Zhu family has done a lot of business in recent years, like every big family, there are many dark spots inside. Second Mrs. Tang was afraid that her sister-in-law would be bullied when she returned to Zhu's house as an orphan and widow, and Mrs. Ju was unwilling to go back to Zhu's house to wade into troubled waters, so she begged Mrs. Tang to take care of Tang's family. At the beginning, Mrs. Tang and her daughter thought that Mrs. Ju was very good at kung fu, so they asked her to live in Zhuyuan to help train Jingwei. Mrs. Ju has a superior family since she was a child, and her dowry is rich, although she is widowed, her in-laws also let her take away most of her husband's property, even if she doesn't live here, she can arrange a rich day for herself, coupled with the relatives of the Tang family, Mrs. Ju always feels that she is half a master here, She looks down on those Baihuatang people from poor families, and usually does not take everyone seriously. Although everyone in Baihuatang is self-sufficient, they have hired a bunch of servants for themselves and their daughters, and there are servants waiting everywhere they go. For Fangyan, it is even more pampered, to be windy, to rain and rain. In addition, most of the stewards in the bamboo garden, Jingwei, have some skills and are magnanimous, and few people care about them, which makes the mother and daughter more arrogant and take it for granted. However, not caring doesn't mean that everyone likes it, for example, today's matter, no matter what Fang Yan thinks about Sanshao, being so rude and ignoring everyone has already aroused everyone's disgust.

Not long after Fang Yan began to speak, Madame Ju walked in, and did not greet the rest of the room, but looked at the window. In her eyes, there was only the man in the jade body and the girl in front of her, and no one else existed for her. Listening to her daughter's words, she didn't seem to care, as if it was taken for granted. After marrying her husband in her early years, Mrs. Ju saw Tang Wei, and compared her husband from time to time, regardless of talent and status, demeanor and appearance, Tang Wei was a thousand times better than her dead ghost husband. In her heart, she secretly hated that the husband chosen by the elders of the Zhu family for her was too unpopular, she felt that she was no worse than her sister-in-law, why could her sister-in-law marry so well.

The sister-in-law took care of her family in many ways, and she felt that it was because her in-laws felt that they had treated her badly and compensated her. But she and the Zhu family both understand that the Tang family must stutter, so no matter how arrogant or jealous she has been for many years, she has been kind to her sister-in-law and pretended to be weak in front of her. Later, in the army, she saw other men of the Tang family, and she was even more envious, and after having a good face, she was determined to marry her daughter into the Tang family. After being widowed, although she couldn't be in the barracks, but through her sister-in-law, she successfully took her daughter to live in the Tangmen's property, and after Xinjie took over the management of Baihuatang, she became the ideal son-in-law candidate in her mind. What her daughter wants coincides with her, so she has been daydreaming about her own beauty for the past two years. I was thinking that Fang Yan and Lu were about to write a letter to my sister-in-law and ask her to come forward to propose, Fang Yan was also her niece no matter what she said, this time it was good, Xinjie came before she started.

Although everyone in Baihuatang is rumoring that the so-called Miss Biao is the woman chosen by the third young master, Mrs. Ju feels that she is married to Xinjie, and without the words of the matchmaker of her parents, from the perspective of her parents, she is just a woman who waits. is an orphan girl who is poor and white, how can she compare with Fangyan. Fangyan is talented and outstanding, and she and her husband's family property is left to Fangyan, not to mention anything else, that is, several wineries in the capital in her dowry, a shop in Luoyang, and the dividends of the Zhu family's wine cellar, and the annual income is not comparable to the large families in Luoyang City. Xinjie has been opening a hotel tea club all these years, and she is also a person who loves money and ideas, and has a relationship with her sister-in-law, she is confident that she can win it.

After coming in, she heard Fang Yan and Xinjie talking like that, not only did she not feel rude, but she felt that Xinjie should be smart and take advantage of the situation. As for the young lady who pretended to sit there and listen to the reply of the housekeeper of Baihuatang, she was just bluffing and pretending, and she didn't bother to pay attention to her at all. Baihuatang's poor sourness, she didn't pay attention to it, and she didn't bother to look at it. Looking at his daughter and future son-in-law with full eyes. Regarding the behavior of her mother and daughter, everyone in Baihuatang secretly disliked it in their hearts, and they didn't expect the third young master to look at the mother and daughter differently.

Sure enough, I only heard the third young master politely replied: "If Yan'er has nothing else to do, go out to play first, there is something to talk about here, and if you want to, you can go to Xianghua Zhai and pick one and record it in my account." ”

"People want you to accompany me, just like that year, take me shopping, buy snacks, and then go to Xianghuazhai." Fang Yan said and came to take his hand.

He keenly staggered and stepped away, and chuckled: "Yan'er said that she is a big girl, she should be sensible, I am very busy here, you can go play by yourself." ”

"I don't want it, people have been waiting for you for a long time, and I have a lot to say to you. Let them do it, you are the master, is it difficult for them to do things and you need to accompany them? It's rare for you to come here, so go out with me and have some fun. ”

"Yan'er, I really have something important to do here, and I can't go away." The patience has been worn out between the words, because it is a relative, it is not good to tear the face, but there is already impatience in the faint way.

"Then I'll sit here and wait for you to finish your busy day, accompany me into the city to go shopping, buy jewelry, and buy clothes. And your Yuehuaxuan in the city, I like it there so much, I usually go to a lot of people, often there is no place, every time the person in charge pretends not to know me, I want to waste my tongue for a long time, only barely find me a place, too eyeless, I want you to teach those minions a good lesson. ”

Although Steward Qin was still working on this, everyone in the room was paying attention to the movement here. As soon as Mrs. Ju entered the door and looked at Fangyan and Xinjie's eyes and style, Lian'er guessed that this was Mrs. Ju, and when she saw her acting with such an attitude, she knew in her heart. While consulting with Steward Qin, she paid attention to everyone's demeanor. The arrogance of the little girl and the connivance of her mother made her quite unhappy. At this time, Steward Qin's words came to an end, she glanced at Mother Liu, Mother Liu was an old man brought out by Mrs. Tang, so she coughed lightly, half-turned to look at Mrs. Ju, and said to Fang Yan: "Miss Fang Yan, the young master came to Luoyang this time to be ordered by the old lady to do business, and he is busy every day, and now there are still some important things here that need to be handled by the young master here, so the girl should go back first." Besides, the girl also said just now, you are already a big girl, unlike a few years ago when the girl first came when she was still a child, now that you are older, you have to pay attention to etiquette, how can you let the young master go out with you, and ask the girl to respect herself. ”

"Where are you an old woman, I'm talking to Brother Jie, what's your business?" Fang Yan was immediately displeased, and turned her face faster than turning a book.

Before Liu's mother could speak, she heard Mrs. Ju speak: "You are just a subordinate, the master is talking here, how can you interject?" ”

Although Mother Liu had come to Baihuatang several times with Mrs. Tang, Mrs. Ju did not pay attention. As soon as I came in, I saw her standing respectfully beside the young lady, and I thought it was just a servant woman next to the girl of the Bai family.

"In the Hundred Flowers Hall, there is no master and no subordinates, only people who are self-reliant." Everyone only heard the third young master say in a rare indifferent and deep tone: "Mother Liu has followed my grandmother for many years and is familiar with the promotion and operation of Baihuatang, so the old man sent her out with us this time, so that she can introduce and mention various matters to Miss Bai at any time." It is also regarded as the new deputy of the white girl who is the head of Baihuatang. How could such an important person in Baihuatang be interrupted by the teaching of a bamboo garden when he spoke? Mr. Zhou, how do you manage this bamboo garden? ”
