Chapter 135 Refusal (Pink 675)
Ask for a pink ticket, there will be it at night.

The man whipped his horse, and rode forward in a frenzy, and the wind swept in front of them like a dust, leaving only a strong fragrant wind. Among the two people chasing behind, one of them saw Peony and the others, clasped his fists and saluted, but he didn't have time to say hello, so he chased after him.
Rong Niangqi said: "Auntie, do you recognize the person just now?" ”
Peony shook his head: "Some of them are familiar, probably from Jiangjiazhuang, and they have been to our Zhuangzi with them." Others don't know. ”
Aunt Feng said: "The son who rode the purple horse is so angry, so desperately beating the horse regardless of it, I am afraid that the horse will go crazy, if I encounter any ditch to stop the control, I am afraid that it will be difficult to escape." ”
Ying Niang said: "I saw that Uncle Jiang and Manager Wu were both precious to this purple horse, and I don't know what kind of person this person is who is so bad about this horse." ”
After a while, I saw three or four big men in brocade clothes chasing after him on horseback, standing at the intersection and looking left and right, and saw Peony and others, one of them was missing half an ear, and the fat man with a full beard stepped forward, without any politeness, and said in a rough voice: "There was a son who rode out on a horse just now, where did he go?" As he spoke, he stared at Peony's face.
Although Peony hated him for being rude, he thought that the person came out of Jiang Changyang's Zhuangzi and rode Jiang Changyang's purple horse, if something happened, he was afraid that the horse would not be able to get rid of it, so he motioned to Aunt Feng to reply. Aunt Feng raised the tip of the whip and pointed forward: "Go forward." ”
The man did not thank him, but turned back and beckoned the other three to follow, and rode after him.
Shu'er took a sip: "Where did you come from, the reckless man, it's rude." ”
Peony said: "There are thousands of kinds of people, so don't worry about him." It's important to hurry. ”
There was a cup of tea again, and someone shouted behind him, this time he directly named the name of the eldest lady, but it was Wu San who led four or five gray-clothed little men to ride forward and salute, and asked where the young man was just now.
Wu San heard that someone had already caught up, so he simply slowed down and asked Peony with a smile: "Is He Niangzi going back to the city?" I'm afraid I'm going to stay in the city for a while this time, right? ”
Peony smiled: "Father and brother are going to go far away, and I want to accompany them for a few days." ”
Wu San frowned slightly: "Is this time going to sea?" Have you set a date to travel? ”
Before Peony could speak, Rong Niang had already spoken quickly: "It's the twenty-sixth of this month." ”
Wu San thought for a moment, then clenched his fists and said goodbye: "The son of Shicai is the second son of Zhu Guogong's mansion, and he came here with Zhu Guogong as a guest, and he is a guest. If something goes wrong, the little one has to catch up and take a look, He Niangzi, you go slowly. ”
"You're busy, don't worry about us." Only then did Peony know that person was Jiang Changyang's half-brother, and that was not a good match. And Zhu Guogong, who appeared in Jiang Changyang's Zhuangzi at this time, is probably also related to Mrs. Wang's remarriage, and I don't know what he will ask Jiang Changyang to do? Unexpectedly, Peony remembered Qiu Shi's words, and couldn't help but sigh softly, and beat the horse quickly.
When they arrived at Xuanpingfang, it was almost noon, Peony and others entered the door, and Li led Rui Niang to greet him with a smile: "Say Cao Cao, Cao Cao has arrived." Father and mother were still thinking about it just now, if you don't come back today, you will have to be picked up tomorrow, but it just so happens that you will come back. ”
Peony was surprised: "Didn't Dad go to the shop?" ”
Li said: "There are guests at home today, except for your fourth brother and sixth brother who went to the shop, the rest of the people stayed at home. ”
Rong Niangqi said: "Who is it?" ”
Bai led a few maids holding fruit tea and came over and said with a smile: "It's Lu Wulang." ”
Peony thought to herself, people like Aunt Duan, presumably He Zhizhong and others are also very willing to socialize, since everyone is interested in each other, it is normal to deliberately entertain and socialize. didn't take it to heart, and only asked: "Is there any news of Qin Sanniang?" ”
Bai Shi said in a low voice: "It seems to be a little eyebrow-raising." Dad asked someone to inquire around the West Market, and some people knew that one of the attendants who went out with Qin Sanniang that day was from King Jing's Mansion, but the others didn't know it. Now it's not sure whether the person has anything to do with King Jing's Mansion. ”
King Jing? The name is somewhat familiar. Peony pondered for a moment, and suddenly remembered that this was the big idler who Jiang Changyang said before, who raised many good florists and was said to be unknown. If Qin Sanniang is really related to King Jing's Mansion, then how did she get to King Jing's Mansion? What kind of role is it in the palace? Peony couldn't help but shake her head slightly, life is really unpredictable.
On the side, the Bai family and the Li family passed their eyebrows for a long time, and the Li family said: "Two days ago, the Li family father and son came to apologize. ”
Peony was silent and said, "What do you say?" ”
Li said with a smile: "How else can you say that people come to apologize for their carelessness, and my father and mother can still drive people out?" Naturally, they were still relatives, leaving them to eat and drink, and sent them out happily, and they also agreed to come on the twenty-sixth day to say goodbye to their father and your brother. The cousin of the Li family said that the matter of the Meng Ruren was known by King Ning, and he was angrily reprimanded and scolded, and he was demoted to a grade and became a sixth-grade concubine, and he was not allowed to enter and leave the mansion freely. A large number of minions in the palace were also disposed of. ”
Peony couldn't help but be a little strange: "That punishment is really heavy." Originally, Madame Bai had told her that this matter could be big or small, depending on what King Ning thought, but now it seems that she really responded to Princess Fen's words, and she was punished according to the heaviest punishment. But dealing with a large number of minions is definitely not for their own sake.
Bai said with a smile: "Killing chickens and monkeys, punishing several crimes, the specific reason, the cousin of the Li family will naturally not talk to us in detail, but thinking about people like her, it is impossible to only do this bad thing." As for the other minions, according to me, it is long overdue for a good life, and a little steward in the Zhuangzi dares to come nonsense and act as a prestige, not to mention others. ”
When it came to the matter of Steward Deng, Peony remembered what Li Xun had said at that time that it involved some things between the clans, and he couldn't help but speculate, maybe this time it was the same, King Ning just took the opportunity to deal with a group of people. But Ning Wangfu and her, the Li family and her, are almost so far away from heaven and earth at this moment, and Peony quickly forgot about this matter.
After entering the backyard, I saw Mrs. Cen, and after the gossip, Peony roughly talked about the situation in Fangyuan, and said that she wanted to pick a few clever and responsible, well-behaved little maids to follow the Li florist to learn to take care of the flowers and trees. Mrs. Cen said, "What's so difficult about this? Pick a few children to go, a few days ago several people told me that my son is older, I want to ask for an errand, and later let your sister-in-law take the roster, you go to pick one by one, and after picking what is not enough, I will buy it again. ”
As soon as Mrs. Cen finished speaking, Zhen said: "Danniang, my companion Pan Wu family happens to have a pair of boys, one is seven years old and the other is nine years old, elf, and his hands and feet are clean, so he happened to follow you." ”
As soon as she started, the Bai family, the Sun family and others were a little moved. I think that Fangyuan is easy to live there, and you can entertain guests in the spring, and those who go are rich, as long as you are clever, you are indispensable for rich rewards, and you are a child who goes from home, and you can't do a steward or something, the best thing is that if Fangyuan is really good to make money, and the people under your command learn a good craft, it will be a way to make a fortune in the future, so they want to stuff their own people into it.
Peony had long expected such a situation, and had already thought of countermeasures, so they all readily agreed to it one by one. Seeing that she responded without difficulty, everyone else opened their mouths, some were not from the He family, and some even asked if Peony Fangyuan had a general manager, and the number of people gathered to more than ten in an instant, and there was a trend of continuing to rise.
Mrs. Cen looked at Peony suspiciously: "Do you need so many people?" "It's not her picking people, but someone else picking them for her, can these people use them? The deed of sale is not in her hands, when will someone come to the bottom of the kettle to draw salary, and she will not be unlucky? It's not good for Mrs. Cen to say this in front of a few selfish daughters-in-law, so she can only indirectly remind Peony.
Peony smiled: "Fangyuan is so big, of course I can use it, and I can afford to pay a few times more money to buy people, and I can afford to raise it." But it's just that the sisters-in-law plan for them, but I'm afraid they won't agree. After all, Fangyuan is not as good as the city, bitter and lonely, not prosperous, but also have to dig soil and carry water, fertilize and weed, and do the head at most is a manager of flowers and trees, where is better than going to the shop in the city to be a buddy, not only can learn skills, but also have a future. I was worried that no one would go with me, but fortunately my sisters-in-law recommended it for me. ”
When Zhen heard this, he couldn't help but widen his eyes: "What kind of money to buy people?" ”
Peony looked at her with a smile, and said as a matter of course: "Li Huajiang told me that it is not difficult for him to teach his apprentice, but he must be the one who signed the death contract to me, otherwise he will not teach." This old man has a strange and stubborn temper, and often asks me to listen to him, and if he doesn't listen, he will be angry, and he has a good craft, so he can't leave him. And I recruited a few new florists, because they only signed a short contract, they didn't listen to my greetings, so I made up my mind, after that, anyone who wants to enter Fangyuan to plant peony flowers must be a dead contract. In the end, I'm embarrassed to use my family and sisters-in-law in vain, where can I not give money? The brother clearly settles the account, and this money must be given. ”
Zhen was originally conceived with two hearts, only thinking about lending people to Peony, and the deed was still held in his own hands, but now when he heard Peony say this, he was a little reluctant, so he smiled dryly: "Danniang is reasonable, I have to ask their mother and son about this matter first, so as not to complain about me for dismantling the flesh and bones." ”
"That's exactly what happened." Peony lowered her head and blew a sip of tea soup, took a sip of tea casually, and asked Bai and Sun, "Do you want to ask first, sisters-in-law?" ”
Bai and Sun glanced at each other and said with a smile: "Naturally, I want to ask." After asking, I'll come and talk to Danniang later. ”
Peony smiled slightly, knowing that this matter was basically revealed, and no one would stretch out his hand indiscriminately after that. After all, if others want to learn from her to grow peonies, as long as they can afford the money, they can invite craftsmen to go, and there is no shortage of these little florists, and among these little florists, if one of the ten can be outstanding, she will be very grateful. It's just that she asks her subordinates to be of the same mind to her, focusing on her orders and interests, and this mess goes to a group of people, each with its own master, each with its own interests, which will inevitably affect the overall situation.
