The young man was smiling at first, with a hint of casualness in his tone, but later on, he brought out a bit of threat.

When Mama Xu heard the young man's slightly cold tone, she couldn't help but shudder.

Although she didn't know whether the rules of the young man were true or false, she also knew that these "people in the rivers and lakes" had their own set of rules when doing things, and if they were found, they had to follow their rules, otherwise they would invite trouble.

These people are different from the official family, they will be destroyed if they don't agree with each other!

Jianghu is a very mysterious place for a person like Mama Xu who has lived in the mansion all her life, and it is a place where even the imperial court can't manage it, how can she manage it as a housekeeper?

Therefore, after listening to the young man's words, he naturally agreed with a good voice.

The young man saw that Mama Xu nodded in response, but he was also happy, so he directly took out a small bamboo tube from his arms and handed it to Mama Xu, "Well, here is what you want, you can order it in person, save yourself from saying that we took the money and didn't do anything, and deliberately coaxed you!" ”

When Mama Xu heard this, she naturally didn't care about being polite, and hurriedly opened the bamboo tube and pulled out a paper roll from it.

After the paper roll was unfolded, there were two plain papers, which were the kind sold by the most ordinary pen and ink shops in Beijing.

Mama Xu didn't care about studying these, so she went to look at some things on the paper first.

The small characters on the paper are densely written, and Mama Xu is old, so it takes a little hard to read, but it doesn't delay to see it.

Two pieces of paper, on which a total of five girls' information were recorded, which was very detailed, and it was better than Mama Xu expected.

Therefore, she thinks that Hu Da is a capable person.

"I received the things, go back and tell you Boss Hu, this errand is good, if there is a need in the future, I will go to him again."

This is just a kind word, God knows that she doesn't want to go to Hu Da again at all.

Dealing with these Jianghu people, I always have no bottom in my heart, whether I can go or not.

The young man listened to Mama Xu's words, smiled a little meaninglessly, and then turned around and left in a dashing manner.

Mama Xu stuffed the two pieces of paper back into the bamboo tube, put them in her sleeve pocket, and hurried back to the house.

When the Xu family came back from the palace banquet, Mama Xu immediately presented the bamboo tube to the Xu family.

Xu had just come back from the palace banquet, and he was a little tired, but today because he saw Gu Ningwei, who was with Concubine Rong at the palace banquet, he was in a good mood, so he heard that Mama Xu said that there was news about the matter he inquired about, so he asked Mama Xu to show it to her with great interest.

The words on the paper were very small, and Xu Shi had a lot of effort to read, so it took some effort.

After reading it, Xu put down the two pieces of paper, pondered for a while, and asked Mama Xu: "Have you seen this thing?" ”

Mama Xu didn't dare to say that she hadn't seen it, but she didn't know the intention of Xu's question, so she said that the young man said that he must "inspect the goods" according to the rules.

The implication is that she has already seen it.

Xu Shi was not unhappy when he heard this, and asked again: "Since you have seen it, I will not repeat it to you, then tell me, do you think, which of the girls above is more suitable?" ”

Mama Xu saw that the Xu family was not unhappy because she had read the news first, but asked for her own opinion, so she thought about it carefully and replied: "According to the slave maid, if you talk about the identity, it is naturally that Miss Xu Hanlin's family is more noble, but this Miss Xu's family is poor, so I am afraid that it will be difficult to have much dowry...... And if you want to talk about the dowry, it is the fourth lady of the Dali Siqing family, but unfortunately this fourth lady is a concubine, otherwise, it is really very suitable......"

The Xu family is actually a person who takes his concubine more seriously, so Mama Xu doesn't dare to say this.

Xu was obviously very hesitant, otherwise, he would not have asked Mama Xu's opinion.

After listening to Mama Xu's words, Xu frowned and thought for a while before he said again: "That's what you said, so let's think about it again, anyway, I can't be too anxious about this matter." ”

"What the old lady said is very true." Mama Xu was busy flattering when she heard this.

......

Soon, it was late afternoon.

In August, after evening, the weather cooled down, and the Gu family's family banquet was placed in the garden, with a fresh breeze and the fragrance of golden cinnamon, which was also very suitable for the occasion.

It's just that because of the dowry for Gu Ningwei before, the Yongning Marquis Mansion was cleaned up, so the specifications of this year's Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet are a little worse than usual.

As soon as Xu arrived at the place, he frowned a little when he looked at the surrounding layout.

When the food and drinks were delivered, the frown became even deeper.

When Shen saw Xu's frowning brows, he was a little worried.

She knew that this year's Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet was a little "shabby" compared to previous years, but she couldn't help it, she also wanted to do it better, but there was no silver in the treasury, so she couldn't put her dowry in!

Song lowered his eyes and pretended not to see Xu's frowning, but he secretly disdained it in his heart.

I don't have that ability and I still want to talk about pomp, and I don't look at how thick the family is, if it wasn't for her in previous years, the Gu family would still be able to maintain the surface scenery, dream!

This year, she paid attention to her eyes and refused to make up for it, and sure enough, she could see the difference!

Sooner or later, she will go out of this home, she really doesn't want to stay in this home for a moment!

Because the specifications of the Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet were not as good as in previous years, Xu was a little uninterested, and after using the dinner hastily, he said that he was a little tired, so he went back to the room first, and did not stay to enjoy the moon with others.

As soon as Xu left, the others had nothing to talk about, so they all excused themselves to leave.

Within a moment, the huge garden was cold.

After Xu, who was a little tired and wanted to rest, returned to the room, he did not rest, but called Mama Xu and instructed: "Ming'er, you go out again to inquire about the character and appearance of that Miss Zhao Si, and see if it is the same as what the above said." ”

As soon as Mama Xu heard Xu's words, she understood that the Xu family was probably going to set this Miss Zhao Si, so she hurriedly lowered her head and said yes.

......

Early the next morning, Mama Xu went out to inquire about the fourth lady of Zhao Yang's family in Dali Temple.

Mama Xu had just gone out not long ago, and An Sheng got the news.

An Sheng curled the corners of his lips and smiled, but did not speak.

Qinghui was surprised: "Miss, Mama Xu really went out to inquire about Miss Zhao Si!" ”

She said, how could the old lady not be tempted when she saw Miss Zhao Si's large dowry!

"yes, I know." An Sheng responded to Qinghui's words with a smile, looking in a good mood.

As she thought, last night's Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet really made Xu's mind completely determined.
