Chapter 213: Catch a Big Fish
Yang Qiqi smiled slowly, and said as a matter of course: "She is loyal, and there is nothing wrong with her."
Do you still expect to be able to use those few hundred taels to make these slaves of the family forget their masters? That's really an underfed dog! β
Zhuzhi said very unevenly in her heart: "She is now working as an errand next to the girl, and they all say that she eats other people's soft mouths and takes other people's short hands. Even if you don't help you in turn, don't help the second lady to spy on you openly and secretly! β
Yang Qiqi shook his head indifferently, nodded and said, "There are two sides to everything, and we are naturally tied up when she spies on me." But to monitor this kind of thing, it should be when I am in the light and she is in the dark. Now she's in the light, I'm in the dark, and she doesn't know anything about it. So, whatever I want to show her, she has to see. β
Zhuzhi suddenly realized: "No wonder the girl is so delicious and delicious that people serve Li Yuanzhong and his wife, just to let them relax and be careless, and show them whatever they want!" β
Yang Qiqi smiled and said metaphorically: "Both the enemy and us have been in close contact several times, and you still don't know how to fight this battle!" β
Zhu Zhile said: "It's the slave who is too confused." β
Yang Qiqi pursed his lips and sighed: "Isn't that the truth!" The three of you are all extremely smart, but you are all focused on the matter of who, who, and who I want to marry, but it's really useless! β
Zhu Zhi couldn't help but distinguish wrongly: "Girl, in our hearts, don't we feel that the big things are not as big as your life's big things." Let's not talk about anything else, Mr. is a famous Confucian all over the world, and he is promising enough. But the most important thing for Mr. is your marriage. Although I don't mention it to you in my letters on weekdays, I have heard Mr. Chu talk a lot, saying that Mr. Chu always writes to ask her about the trivial things around you. The most asked question is how Zhang Shizi is a person. Mr. Chu doesn't dare to tell Mr. your idea, and he tries his best to perfunctory Mr. every day! β
When Yang Qiqi heard this, he was overjoyed, "It's also difficult for Mr. Chu." This time, the 300,000 taels, take out 10,000 taels and give it to our people. There is also Li Yuanzhong's family, continue to dot. After all, the good days are numbered, so let them enjoy more! β
Zhu Zhi said: "According to the temperament of the second lady, if you tell her that the money is gone, I am afraid that she will even have the heart of the girl who has been devoured alive!" β
Yang Qiqi seemed to see Li's face, smiled at the bamboo branch, and said, "If you eat me alive, you won't come back for the 300,000 taels of silver." β
"It's just that these 300,000 taels are a little less, and we also gave back 70,000 or 80,000 taels of silver before and after, and the girl should really ask for an extra 1.8 million taels at that time." Bamboo branches are still a little bit afraid of the lack of money.
Yang Qiqi shook his head and smiled, "These 300,000 taels have already emptied most of Mrs. Li's private treasury." She is now planning to quietly dig a gold mine with Murong Shi, and if the gold mine is to be reopened, she will have to throw out a million taels. Mrs. Li wants to share more, so naturally she can't take less. After all, it is a mountain of gold, as long as she spends money, she can see gold, how can she give up this opportunity to drop pie in the sky because she is shy in her pocket? β
Zhuzhi originally thought that Yang Qiqi just wanted to simply pit Mrs. Li for some money, but who knew that Yang Qiqi said this, and it was actually included in the matter of Qinling Jinshan, and Zhuzhi felt that this matter was very complicated.
Yang Qiqi saw her look of ignorance, and reminded patiently: "Mrs. Li doesn't have this silver, either from the Li family, or from the silver in the public school." Although she is a housekeeper, there is no separation in the public middle school now. Not to mention that she moved tens of thousands of taels, even if she moved dozens of taels for her own personal use, it would be a troublesome matter! When the time comes, when they have almost thrown away the gold, and then expose the matter of this gold mine, then Mrs. Li can be regarded as losing her wife and breaking her soldiers, if Murong Shi is smart, and the two of them can not be discovered by the emperor, then it will be considered lucky. But despite this, the silver in her private treasury is gone, and the silver in the public cannot be made up. How could Mrs. Cui and Yang Fu not find out? When the time comes, she doesn't want to touch the power of the ruling power. Therefore, in the matter of the seventh aunt before, I left the third aunt until now, just so that she could add fuel to the fire. When Mrs. Li is no longer useful, it doesn't matter whether the third aunt stays or goes. β
Zhuzhi listened to Yang Qiqi say this, and said in shock: "So, girl, this is a plan to kill many birds with one stone?" β
"Pull down Mrs. Li, and when Murong is introduced, let him and the prince turn against each other, and take Li Yuanzhong and his wife to clean up. They count as three birds? Yang Qiqi counted his fingers easily, which was extremely leisurely and comfortable.
Zhuzhi couldn't help but sigh, this is really a long line and caught a big fish!
Let's say that Yang Yuyan vaguely heard what Murong Shi said to Yang Qiqi in the house, although she didn't hear it too clearly, she knew that whatever Li Guifei and tricks said were all lies.
After leaving the courtyard, Yang Yuyan immediately ordered the people around her to take a look to see if the Seventh Prince had really entered the palace again.
After she returned to the Yuguo Mansion, the person who went out also came to call her back, saying that after Murong Shi opened from the other courtyard, he went back to his house directly, and he never entered the palace at all.
When Yang Yuyan heard such a return, her nose was crooked. Murong Shi lied to her, but he didn't even want to be perfunctory to the end, and really regarded her as a fool, as if he wasn't afraid of what she knew.
Yang Yuyan felt that she could no longer sit still. Even if Yang Qiqi is her sister, even if she is a sister, she shouldn't snatch love. Now her mother and father attach great importance to her Yang Qiqi. If it weren't for her grandmother's hatred of her, where would she have lived in another house?
I thought the other courtyard was a desolate and dilapidated place, but what happened?
Although the courtyard is small, it is really not much worse than the Yuguo Mansion. Yang Qiqi lives there by himself, living a good and wandering life, and does not have to get along with those sisters who are stupid to death and hateful to death. The whole courtyard only looked at her Yang Qiqi's eyes! Where is suffering, this is clearly living a nourishing life.
But, why! Why is she Yang Qiqi begging for benevolence, there is a young and promising fiancΓ© like the Marquis of Yongping, and the seventh prince and the thirteenth prince have now become her ministers under her skirt, why?
Obviously, she Yang Yuyan is more beautiful and gentle, and she has known these people for a longer time. But as soon as Yang Qiqi appeared, he took all of these away!
Yang Yuyan hated so much that the roots of her teeth were sour, she didn't think too much, she stood up directly, and went to Mrs. Li's main courtyard angrily.
Originally, Mrs. Li tactfully asked Yang Yuyan to inquire about the situation over there, but when she saw Yang Yuyan entering the door, she was so angry and sullen, and her heart hung in vain, and said, "Xian'er, what's wrong?" No news over there? β
Yang Yuyan made a bitter face and said, "I'm just afraid it's difficult!" β
Mrs. Li asked Yang Yuyan in a bit of a panic, "What's so difficult?" β
Yang Yuyan flattened her mouth and said, "I said, if you want to point to the 300,000 taels of money back, it will be difficult." I went to ask the seventh sister today, and she said that there was no news from He Qianfan's side at all. And it is common to go to sea, not to mention three or four months, but more than a year and a half. Listen to the meaning of this, what is a year and a half? β
Mrs. Li asked Yang Yuyan in disbelief, "Your seventh sister, did she really say that?" β
Yang Yuyan nodded heavily and said, "Mother, I don't dare to lie to you or hide it from you at all, that's what Seventh Sister said." I looked at her secretive expression, as if she already knew something, but she didn't dare to tell us. You said, could it be that something went wrong with this matter, and the seventh sister didn't dare to say it, so she told us that it would take a year and a half? She's not dragging her feet. β
Mrs. Li's heart was pounding with fear from Yang Yuyan, "Where would she have such guts!" β
Yang Yuyan said with added vinegar: "How much does Gongzhong spend on the seventh sister every month? β
Mrs. Li said, "Twenty taels." β
Yang Yuyan reminded Mrs. Li: "Mother, look at those minions in the Seventh Sister's Courtyard! Twenty taels is enough to feed these people, plus the same expenses as the seventh sister and the boy who scattered wealth! Today, I listened to Li Yuanzhong's family! The seventh sister's expenses in the other courtyard are not one hundred and eighty taels a month, which is by no means enough, and the seventh sister is extraordinarily generous. Not to mention the New Year's holidays, whenever she is happy, she will give a lot of silver to the slaves. Li Yuanzhong's family has only been with the seventh sister for a few months? Now the seventh sister in his hand has twenty or thirty taels of silver. I heard that there are a few close to the seventh sister, and the steward surnamed Chu in the back office, and the reward is more! β
Mrs. Li hesitated: "She doesn't have a shop, the shop always earns." β
Yang Yuyan provoked with strong words: "Mother, there are losses and profits in that business, where can she guarantee that she will have endless silver." But your 300,000 taels are enough for her to squander! β
Mrs. Li didn't fully believe it, or rather, Mrs. Li didn't dare to think so at all. If that's the case, then she won't be able to recover the money, let alone the money. That 300,000 taels is not a small amount!
Mrs. Li's brain hurt for a while, and she reluctantly supported her forehead and said to Yang Yuyan: "You go back first, I have my own opinions on this matter." β
Yang Yuyan emphasized to Mrs. Li bitterly: "Mother, even if the seventh sister comes back from outside, you shouldn't indulge her like this anymore. Who knows how many other wrong things she can do in the future! β
Mrs. Li was speechless and waved her hand at Yang Yuyan. He went to call Li Kangping's family to come in, and ordered: "Wait a little later, you go to the other courtyard and ask Li Yuanzhong's family to come back while you have time." Besides, let people go outside to check whether the He family really has a boat out to sea, where did they go to sea, and when did they leave. β
