"By the way, have you calculated how much money you've 'spent' so far? I can't let everyone pay this money, count the expenses and make an account, and I will pay it back in the future. Xiangru brought up something that had always been in her mind.

"What's that, it's our pleasure to 'spend' money on you, not to mention that we haven't 'spent' a few dollars so far, except for the initial hook and 'spent' some drink money, there is no 'spending' money. Now that hook is long gone, who can blame your eldest brother for his own depravity. "Xie Ziyan and Xia Baotong, the two young 'milk' and 'milk' who have a big family, don't care about this 'spending' at all.

"It's better to do the math, I know that the contact person for this matter is the relationship with Xiang ***, that person is separated from me by a layer, not as close as the master and uncle, so I don't want to owe someone a big son."

"Well, Xiangru's concerns are also reasonable, so let's sort out the expenses and transfer all the scattered 'spending' fees to our name, which also saves Xiangru from worrying about this matter." Xie Ziyan knew Xiangru's 'sexuality' and made concessions.

"It's better to make an account book, reconcile the accounts regularly, remember how much money I 'spent', and pay it back when I make money when I leave the palace."

"Xiangru, if you want to say this money again, I'm going to be angry, don't think that this will 'cost' a lot of money, to tell you the truth, it's really not much, counting the later matchmaker to the 'door', the travel expenses, accommodation expenses and hardship expenses are added together, and a trip is only a few taels of silver, your plan to get out is time-consuming, and it doesn't cost money, so don't worry about money." Xia Baotong really had an expression that was about to turn his face.

"That's right, it's time-consuming, it doesn't cost money, we just blow a little 'wave', and then we just stand by and watch the play, and applaud and cheer when we see the 'fine' color, if you are happy, you will give a little more reward, let them perform more lively, and we must ensure that you can catch up with the last high 'tide'."

Xiangru hung three black lines on the 'door' of her brain, "Master, it turns out that you are also very bad." ”

Xie Ziyan shook her fan, glanced at Xia Baotong with a smile, and did not deny it, "If we were from a family like ours, if we were as pure as a white rabbit, we would have died a long time ago." Just like your little uncle's father-in-law, Second Young Master Hu, he is a son-in-law, and the eldest brother above is a concubine, that aunt in order to protect her son's status, tsk, it's really unscrupulous, the second young master of the Hu family almost didn't have to be born. ”

Xie Ziyan's big revelation made Xiangru stunned, she could understand and experience the cruelty of the competition between the royal children, but she didn't think that ordinary rich families would have such a thing, and her aunt would dare to harm her mother.

"So Xiangru, our plan to get out is to find the right person, we are familiar with doing this kind of thing, Xiangru, you just need to put one hundred and twenty hearts."

"I am naturally relieved of my master and uncle, I am afraid that the insider is reliable, there are many people around you who are waiting, if anyone among them is a little bit of a fuss, I sent the news to Gusang County in advance, and then it reached the ears of my family, then ......"

"Heh, if such a thing happens, we won't keep this subordinate, once it is verified that he will be driven out of the house on the spot, and by the way, he will release the news, saying that he betrayed the master's house and was driven out, and this person will no longer be able to find anything to do, see who dares to risk his future." Regarding Xiangru's worries, Xia Baotong said that there is no need to worry at all.

"So it's okay, there's nothing to worry about."

"Originally, I really don't know what Xiyue told you in the palace, why are you still worried about these nonsense things that are not worth mentioning." Xia Baotong hugged his head and screamed.

"Oh, Xiyue is not also blind and deaf in the palace, she doesn't know much, okay, okay, just say everything that needs to be said today, Xiangru will live the rest of the day with peace of mind, pull madder when she is free, she has been in the palace for a long time, don't be confused by other people's ways." Xie Ziyan played a round.

"Well, I also 'confessed' to Madder before I came out, she is still a new doctor this year, no one in the palace will call their names, they are in the duty room to see the ***, but next year I am afraid I will have to contact the harem girls."

"At that time, I hope that Madder can adapt to the situation, no matter how low the level of the concubine is a mother, there is no big mistake in being careful."

"Zi Yan, I think you're thinking too much, with Xiangru here, no one dares to touch the idea of madder, even if there is *** who makes a mistake and wants to find someone to carry the black cauldron, you have to see who is behind you."

"I'm not afraid that Madder is young and ignorant, and she crashes into it by herself, and she falls into someone else's way, no matter how hard the backer is, it won't be too late to move, and no matter how much you settle it afterwards, you can't make up for the suffering at that time."

"That's not necessarily, who in the palace doesn't know that Xiangru is taking care of the eldest princess outside the palace, and who doesn't know the relationship between Imperial Doctor Shao and Xiang *** and the two of them? Who dares to touch a sweat 'hair' of madder? You just love to '' your mind, and you just forget about yourself when you patronize '' others. ”

"Xiangru and Madder are both my apprentices, shouldn't *** heart be? What do I have to worry about, I'm still early, but you have to pay more attention, Wen Po said that she should give birth in a few days, right? ”

Xia Baotong 'touched' his belly, and a mother's tenderness appeared on his face: "Well, it's just these days." ”

Xie Ziyan stroked her stomach and smiled lovingly, Xiangru stood on the side and looked at the two of them enviously, in view of the huge difference in ideology and culture, she no longer had the intention of marrying, she could only watch others enjoy the joy of family as mothers.

The room was temporarily quiet, everyone was immersed in their own minds, no one spoke for a while, and a warm atmosphere surrounded it.

I don't know how long it took, a girl reported outside the 'door', breaking the warmth of the room, for no other reason, just because the car from the Hou Mansion to pick up Xiangru arrived.

"Master, uncle, it's time for me to go, but unfortunately I don't have much time, and I can't write you some confinement food recipes, but fortunately, there are many doctors in the master's family, so I won't be ugly in front of experts."

"It's okay, it's okay, it's a long time coming, I can't eat your recipe this time, and there will be opportunities in the future. Next time, when it is convenient, write a letter to make an appointment, so that the master can entertain you well. ”

"Okay, that's a deal. Master, uncle, I'll take my leave first, take care. ”

Xiangru reluctantly said goodbye to her master and uncle, Xie and Xia sent Xiangru out of the bedroom with the support of the girls, and watched Xiangru walk out of her sight before returning to the room, while talking about her sister's thoughtful words, while waiting for the next opportunity to meet.

Xiangru went to the street 'door' under the leadership of the next person, and after getting into the car, Xiangru 'handed over' the coachman to go around the market, bought some small gifts to take back to give away, and enveloped interpersonal relationships.

After washing her face and changing her clothes, and dressing up again, Xiangru went to find Sister-in-law Lu to cancel her leave, and by the way, she asked the eldest princess how she felt today, and Xiangru retreated to the kitchen to arrange dinner dishes.

After the meal, there was nothing to do, while the sky was still light, Xiangru sat in the courtyard with a sewing basket and continued to make rag dolls, attracting the girls in the same courtyard to learn to do it together.

The next time *** came to visit the eldest princess, he brought Xiangru the news that Xu Dashao's 'milk' and 'milk' Xia gave birth to a boy safely, and Xiangru was happy to thank her repeatedly, and personally sent *** away for a while.

A girl heard Xiangru's conversation with *** and reported it to the eldest princess, the eldest princess smiled, and said with Sister-in-law Lu that she didn't want to have another boy, this son was enough for a headache, if there was a more naughty one, the two brothers might be able to lift the roof of the Hou Mansion together.

Xiangru sent *** back, and was so happy that she couldn't sit down, and she didn't do needlework that day, she went to bed early at night, and the next day she bought a lot of snacks with Cui Niang when she went to the street to buy vegetables, and shared this happy event with everyone.

Xiangru has been in the mansion for a long time these days to use these little favors to win over people, everyone who sees her is happy with a happy expression, everyone is willing to help her with anything, the popularity is very good, Xiangru's days in the Hou Mansion are like a fish in water.

Another month passed, and Xiangru got the news that her master Xie had given birth to a child safely, and she was happy to send snacks to celebrate again, and took the opportunity to ask Sister-in-law Lu for leave, wanting to go out to see the master.

The eldest princess's condition has been good, and Sister-in-law Lu happily granted leave and arranged for a carriage and horse to send Xiangru to Yu's house on a good day.

Xie Ziyan had been recuperating for more than ten years at this time, and she was white and fat, Xiangru first asked the master to say goodbye, and then went to tease the little baby, who had just eaten the 'milk' in the arms of the 'milk' mother, and the little baby who had just eaten the 'milk' was sleeping soundly next to Xie Ziyan.

Xiangru sat in the master's room for a long time, Xia Baotong and Xia Xiyue came over one after another, and the four masters and apprentices got together again, sharing all kinds of thoughts, and by the way, they showed Xiangru the account book that they said they were going to do last time.

I remember very well every pen in the ledger, the biggest 'spending' is the 'flower' in the restaurant, brothel, casino, totaling more than 100 taels, the largest expense is in the brothel, and the rest is some tea expenses, travel expenses, accommodation expenses and other fractions, even copper plates. Because this trap has been successful, the person who made the hook has already retired without any 'spending' costs, so this amount is the current total 'spending' costs.

"What's the matter, I didn't 'deceive' you, I didn't 'spend' a few dollars. They sold you 800 taels, and counting the grievances you suffered when you were a child, we won't finish if we don't squeeze out all their family resources. Xia Baotong knocked the melon seeds and smiled.

"In the future, send a matchmaker to the 'door' to act, count her ten taels a trip, send ten times I think it's a lot, as long as you go to one three or four times, let the villagers know that someone in the capital wants to marry you, even if your family doesn't talk for a while, the Lu family may not be able to calm down." Xie Ziyan continued.

"Actually, I don't think you need to send a matchmaker, the matchmaker is an outsider in the end, the three aunts and six matchmakers are one of them, I don't worry about the matchmaker's mouth. I think it's better to send a reliable family member to pretend to be a matchmaker, anyway, people in Gusang County don't know the matchmaker in the capital. Xia Xiyue put forward her own considerations.

"Yes, I agree with Uncle Xiao's words, the matchmaker is an outsider in the end, the official media is tight but it is not easy to invite, and it is difficult to say the mouth of the 'private' media. You have sent someone to investigate, you should know what my stepmother is, if she knows that I am behind my back, even if I successfully get out and return to the capital, she will definitely try her best to find the capital to trouble me. A big hat of filial piety was buttoned down, and I would be held firmly by her, unable to resist. Xiangru agreed with Xia Xiyue's statement.

"That's right, the matchmaker's mouth is really unreasonable, so she still sends her own people. Hey, just choose the right person from the mother's concentration of close girls, this relationship is always close, and the mother-in-law is good at chewing the root of the tongue with people, just go and let go of some breath, they should be able to successfully complete this errand. Xia Baotong's mind was spinning quickly, and the idea came immediately.

"Okay, give these mothers-in-law the hard money for the matchmaker, they will do the errand seriously, and they know the roots, which is more reassuring than the matchmaker." Xie Ziyan also agreed with this suggestion.

"Okay, that's it. When your eldest brother sells the remaining twenty acres of land, it's time for our people to come into play. Xia Baotong clapped his hands and decided.

After talking about the matter, the four of them relaxed and chatted about some gossip until the Houfu coachman came to pick up Xiangru
