The fire wall was burned in Chuyang Hall, Zhou Yan only wore a true red carved silk sleeve shirt, black green silk with a peony bun, inserted a golden wind and swayed, and a ruby the size of a lotus seed was attached to the phoenix's mouth, and then looked at the Ming Wang Jue in her ear, the white jade ring on her finger, and the jade pendant on her waist, Zhao involuntarily lowered her head, "I don't know if Mrs. calls the concubine, what are the orders?" ”

Zhou Yan smiled lightly and put down the teacup in her hand, "It's nothing, Mrs. Zhao has put in so much effort, and what she wants to do has come true?" ”

Zhao glanced at Mama Guo in amazement, what else did he not understand, and knew that in front of this Mrs. Zhou, there could be no trace of concealment, "The old lady is merciful, she responds to the concubine, and the concubine family will not forget the great grace of the Hou Ye!" ”

"Well, Master Hou does have the intention to promote your second room, but," Zhou Yan swept her eyes and saw Mama Guo say to the Hu sisters, "These days, I am picking out a pattern to embroider a skirt for our young lady, and the two young ladies help the old lady to work on the staff?" ”

Only Zhou Yan and Zhao were left in the warm pavilion, the quiet needle drop could be heard, the Zhao family waited for a long time, did not listen to Zhou Yan, this sweat came down, she is a girl who grew up in the capital, Peiguo Mansion still knows what kind of people are, if they offend this Mrs. Hou, even if Mrs. Quan wants to protect them, the Zhou family can drive them out of the capital!

"Speaking of which, you are also a daughter of the clan, you don't have to be like this," Zhou Yan sighed, "For the sake of your daughter's future, you and the second master can do this, and it is also a pity for the parents of the world." ”

It turned out that she was not looking for trouble, and Zhao's heart finally let go, but she believed that Mrs. Zhou specially called someone to call her over and would never just come to express sympathy, so she didn't dare to speak, and only lowered her head to listen to Zhou Yan.

"There is nothing wrong with your husband and wife's plans, my mother's family also has a business in Jiangnan, your Hu family is shaking the north and south of the river, is the situation inside," Zhou Yan smiled, "I also know a little bit, and it is understandable that you are unwilling." ”

Zhao silently wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, "Mrs. Xie is considerate. ”

"The Hu family is not in the capital and doesn't understand the rules here, you are also surnamed Zhao, do you really believe that as long as you send their sisters to the palace, they will have a bright future? The second master of your family will definitely be able to get the position of the head of the family? Zhou Yan knew that the Zhao family didn't trust her, and she didn't go around in circles, so she said directly.

"This," Zhao pondered, there was no way to say that she had confidence in her daughter's appearance, what kind of place was in this palace? What kind of daughter doesn't have one? is no, this draft, will also pick the best to enter the palace, like Rong Lan.

"The old lady said that she was willing to help the two poor girls in the concubine body think of a way," Zhao Shi glanced up at Zhou Yan, "If the two stupid girls in the concubine body have a future......

"These vain you coax the old lady is enough, tell me that these are useless, why donate most of the family property, are you all decorations when you are the court law? How big is our small Xiuwu Marquis Mansion, how big a belly can we swallow half of the Hu family? Zhou Yan sneered, "It's just that the two of you have written the document of refuge, can my Hou Ye still force the good to be cheap?!" ”

This, the Zhao family didn't expect that he could coax Mrs. Quan with a little bit of caution, but he couldn't hide it from Mrs. Zhou, what she said was not wrong at all, the Hu family's huge family property, countless fields and shops, can only rely on a Xiuwu Marquis to take it? In the future, they are not going to use the Hu family, as for the amount of dividends, it is not their second room that has the final say?

"Madam, the concubine doesn't dare to deceive Madame," Zhao's legs were weak, and he wanted to kneel down for Zhou Yan again.

"You are also surnamed Zhao, you don't have to be like this, I don't deserve your big gift, you and the old lady are careful, I also blame you, after all," Zhou Yan stopped the Zhao family in a loud voice, and said disapprehantly, "What the old lady said can protect the future of your two daughters in the palace, it is just a promise of an unprecedented future, no matter how long our hands in the Wuhou Mansion are, we can't reach out to the palace." ”

"Huh? Madame, what does Madame mean? Zhao was stunned by Zhou Yan's words, "This, this,"

Zhou Yan looked at Zhao condescendingly, "You don't have to put on this look, the old lady sends a word, and the Hou Ye will naturally find a way to send Ling Qianjin into the palace, but after entering the palace, where will it be distributed, and whether there is a chance to come out, this, it is really not up to the Hou Ye to decide, as for the old lady, she is also a New Year's holiday, and she has only the opportunity to meet her mother, if Mrs. Zhao can trust her, she can wait slowly for a few years, and the old lady will eventually help Ling Qianjin find an opportunity." ”

Wait slowly? The daughter's family has only been in good years for so many years, how dare the Zhao family ask his daughter to wait slowly in the palace? Especially that they did all this behind Rong Lan's back, if Rong Lan entered the palace in the future, how could she give her two daughters the opportunity to tell them to "wait slowly"?

"Ask Madame to show our mother and daughter a clear way," Zhao knelt willingly this time, "Madame, you say a number, and our husband and wife will definitely do it!" "Mrs. Quan has the ability to do this, the Zhao family is really not sure, that is, if this Mrs. Zhou must block her daughter's way, it will be their mother and daughter who will suffer in the end.

Zhao knelt in front of Zhou Yan for a long time before Zhou Yan called her up, "Let's make a deal, after I finish speaking, you go back and discuss with Second Master Hu, I won't force you, even if you don't agree, the old lady will still count your affairs, how about it?" ”

"Madame, you say,"

……

After listening to Zhou Yan's conditions, the Zhao family was already so frightened that he couldn't get up on the ground, "This, this is to destroy our Hu family, no, how can this be?" ”

"Ruined your Hu family? The whole world is not the king's land, do you think you shouldn't do this, the court won't be able to destroy your Hu family? ”

Zhou Yan and the Zhao family grinded their tongues for a long time, and they were tired, leaning back, and found a comfortable posture crooked, "In my opinion, it is better for you husband and wife to wear the guilt and make meritorious contributions, and leave a way back for the Hu family, think about it, the two daughters of the Hu family have become nobles in the palace, and it is also appropriate for your second master to seal his background, and those illegal things of the Hu family have nothing to do with your second room, at that time, at most, it is to fold some property, maybe the son is gracious, and even the lives of the long room and the third room can be saved,"

Zhou Yan watched Zhao's face gradually become bloody, and said with a smile, "Mrs. go back and take care of it, Enyihou and Niangniang are waiting for your letter, after all, this is getting closer and closer to the small election, if Xueqing Xuerou's two girls can see the sky before the show girl, the gap here, Mrs. must understand." ”

The queen received her two daughters to serve her, and then found an opportunity to recommend them to the emperor, and promised that as long as she accepted the favor, she would definitely give a noble position first, Zhao's mind was full of what Zhou Yan told her, and she didn't know how she returned to Sitiao Lane, and Hu Xueqing's sisters were also frightened by their mother's appearance, and no one dared to speak out all the way, silently followed Zhao back to her courtyard, and wanted to go in and ask Zhao what happened, but was driven out by Zhao, and they looked at each other for a long time, In the end, he honestly returned to his yard.

Hu Xueqing and Hu Xuerou returned to the West House where they lived, and when they asked, they learned that Rong Lan had not come back yet.

They went to the Marquis of Xiuwu's Mansion, and their mother begged and knelt down, and even promised half of the family property, before they asked Mrs. Quan to promise to help send them into the palace, and Rong Lan is now a guest of the Yan'an Marquis Mansion, and entering the palace is already a sure thing, and she is also a concubine!

The more Hu Xuerou thought about it, the more unhappy she became, and sat down next to her sister and said, "What did Mrs. Zhou say to her mother today?" Can my sister guess? ”

Hu Xueqing was also thinking about this, and sighed and said, "How could I possibly guess it?" Just looking at my mother's face, I'm afraid it's a tricky matter, and I don't know how my father will decide when he comes back. ”

"Alas, why is it so difficult for us to do anything, just because we are merchants?" The more Hu Xuerou thought about it, the more sad she became, and she couldn't help crying, this kind of humiliation had never been felt before in Jiangnan.

My sister was crying because of the injustice in her heart, Hu Xueqing rubbed the soft Liuhaier on Hu Xuerou's forehead with pity, "Don't cry, isn't my mother desperately trying to find a way?" Later, if your eyes are swollen, you can see them there, and it's not good to be suspicious again. ”

"How can she bother with us? People will be concubines in the future," thinking of Rong Lan's fulcrum cui hairpin, Hu Xuerou's eyes could be on fire, and she stood up suddenly, "I'm going to see my mother!" ”

Hu Jiagui heard that the Zhao family sent someone to call him, and he had rushed back to his yard, and he was facing the Zhao family at the moment, not knowing what to do, the Hu family's business was all over the south of the Yangtze River, but he was used to being idle, and he never really took the idea, and now, what the Zhao family put in front of him was a major matter related to the life and death of the Hu family!

"Mother, father," Hu Xuerou ignored the obstruction of her subordinates, strode into the inner hall, saw that Hu Jiagui was also there, and went directly to him, and said with tears, "Dad, you must send me and my sister into the palace, and when our sister inherits the emperor's grace, our Hu family will no longer have to be looked down upon because it is a small business!" ”

After thinking all the way, Zhao already had a fixed opinion in his heart, and after listening to his daughter, he also tried to cry, "Master, it is a Congbapin, that is also an official body, not only our two sons, but also the grandchildren in the future, can also be a man with his head held high!" ”

She pointed to Hu Xuerou, whose eyes were red, "These two girls have been sensible since they were children, and they have been looked down upon by others when they go out these days, in fact, what are they less than others?" It's just a father who is an official! ”

Speaking of this, Zhao leaned down on the big pillow on the kang head and wept, "My poor Xue Wan was given to an old man in his seventies at a young age, could it be that Jing'er Chang'er and their daughter also want to be small?" ”

It's okay to mention others, but when Zhao talked about his two sons, Hu Jiagui couldn't hold it anymore, could he also be like himself, and live by looking at his brother's eyes all his life?
