Chapter 116: There is Brother Lao
In order not to do anything wrong, Mother Yang asked more: "Grandma, what if Miss meets Rong Liuye?" Do you want to avoid suspicion? ”
Liu pondered for a moment and said: "To the sixth master of the courtesy, remember to maintain the etiquette of a boudoir woman, and let the sixth master of the house know that the eldest lady of our family is a dignified and virtuous lady who abides by etiquette." Well, avoid it after seeing the ceremony, so that you can look like a well-behaved lady. ”
At this time, Mother Yang is 100% sure that the main family does have plans to marry the eldest lady to Rong Liuye, and she has a direction for what she wants to do in the future, at least she is not afraid of doing something wrong. As for whether Rong Liuye has a family and whether the eldest lady is a wife, the eldest lord and the eldest wife have their own considerations. As a subordinate, of course, I am not qualified to think more, let alone say more.
Liu then told her: "Wan'er, don't say much about it first, and when I'm free, I'll tell her slowly." ”
Mother Yang hurriedly responded.
Thanks to Ye Xinyan, she didn't know the thoughts of the Liang family's master and servant, if she knew, she was afraid that she would drop her jaw with laughter.
Jinrong is the son of the emperor, and he is a serious king, even if he carries a concubine into the palace, it is different from ordinary people. King Yu's concubine room, which is of grade and requires royal approval, where can they be allowed to pick and choose?
What the Liang family didn't know was that they were just ignorant about clinging to Rong Liuye, and the Liu family and Yang's mother still had some doubts about Rong Liuye's identity. And Zhou Bingyi, the prefect of Yuyuan County, who knew the inside story, was already very solemnly under the idea of climbing relatives with Yu Wangye. Moreover, the Governor of Zhou is very accurate in his daughter's positioning, as long as he can enter the palace, he will never dare to bargain with His Royal Highness King Yu on the status of his daughter.
It won't be long before Liang Wanqiu will have a strong contender to compete with her for this hot position. It's also biased to say this, the concubine room, a few more or fewer is not a big deal for the palace.
…………
What kind of plan the Liang family has for Jinrong, Ye Xinyan naturally doesn't know, even if she knows, it has nothing to do with her, and it will not affect her schedule.
Early the next morning, the people in the second room of the Qi family went to work as usual on the ox cart in the village.
The three of them removed the window panels and door panels of the small shop and began to do their daily work, and Qi Jiaer also followed behind Mama Jin, helping to deliver things and run errands.
As soon as Chen arrived, the Qi family's snack shop had not yet opened to welcome customers, and the surrounding shops had just begun to tidy up their storefronts, and Hongzhi came to the door.
Not only did Hiroshi himself come, but he was also followed by a middle-aged steward.
At this time, Mama Jin was busy in the store, and when she saw Hongzhi leading people over, she thought of Hongzhi's great help to her family yesterday, and her family still wanted to rely on King Yu in the future, so she naturally couldn't snub His Royal Highness King Yu's personal servant. Therefore, Mama Jin welcomed the two into the shop with unprecedented enthusiasm. beckoned Qi Younian to come over and talk to the guests, and she wanted refreshments here.
Hongzhi looked at the fact that there was no Ye Xinyan in the store, and hurriedly called out to Mama Jin and said, "Mama, don't be busy first, the two of us came after breakfast." We received the errand of the sixth master, and discussed things with Qi Niangzi, can you pass it on on your behalf. ”
Qi Younian arched his hand and smiled: "Little brother is polite, we are just ordinary farmers, where do we dare to call it a communication, I will call Ye Zi to come and speak." He turned to Mama Jin and said, "Mama is going to make tea for the two of you." ”
Ye Xinyan, who was busy making sorbets in the back hall, came out, and couldn't help frowning when he saw the middle-aged man next to Hongzhi and Hongzhi. Didn't he say to Jinrong that if he wanted to use her to take charge of things, he would only send the account office to supervise the accounts? Why did you still send a steward?
Seeing Ye Xinyan frowning, Hongzhi hurriedly took a step forward and explained: "Qi Niangzi, this is Steward Liu, who was sent by the sixth master of my family to negotiate with you on the cattle farm documents. When the documents are settled, we can bring the money and send the account office over. ”
Oh, Ye Xinyan nodded, "It's still the sixth master's thoughtfulness, it's early in the morning, you two have worked hard." ”
Hongzhi first introduced the middle-aged steward: "This is Qi Niangzi, the sixth master and Master Jiang plan to hand over the cattle farm to Qi Niangzi to operate." ”
He said to Ye Xinyan again: "This is Liu Qing Liu, who was transferred by the sixth master, and came to negotiate with Qi Niangzi. ”
Liu Qing arched his hand at Ye Xinyan: "Under Liu Qing, this is polite." The sixth master can hand over the matter of the cattle farm to Qi Niangzi, and I think Qi Niangzi is a person who can do things. ”
Liu Qing has been working in Yuwangfu, but he has never seen Ye Xinyan, the original owner, and he doesn't know her identity. And although the few little guys who served Jinrong personally had seen the eldest lady of Anguo Mansion in the capital, they naturally would not mention Ye Xinyan's original identity to uninformed people without Jinrong's permission.
Therefore, Liu Qing was extremely puzzled by his prince's actions this time. Although the prince of his family will be willful and unadjusted from time to time, but those are all innocuous little things, and the prince has never been unadjusted in business.
This time, I heard that the prince was going to set up a cattle farm, and that he was going to hand over the cattle farm to a country woman to be in charge, Liu Qing had a deeper feeling about the degree of casualness of the prince's work.
When I saw this woman again, she turned out to be a young woman, not only young, but also a little delicate. Can such a woman be in charge? Or a cattle farm. Raising livestock is not easy, is that what a woman like her can do?
Liu Qing muttered in his heart and stepped forward to salute, Ye Xinyan hurriedly let go, and said politely: "Steward Liu is polite." The cattle farm is a business that does not come to money, and the sixth master of your family is driving ducks to the shelves, so the little woman has to respond. Please sit down and speak. ”
At this time, Mama Jin came up with tea.
Liu Qing didn't sit down with Ye Xinyan's gesture, and said, "I received the sixth master's errand under you, and the sixth master is still waiting." Let's settle down the paperwork as soon as possible, and we can hand over the business to the sixth master as soon as possible. ”
Saying this, Liu Qing looked at the table of the small shop that had not yet welcomed customers, and his heart was not very steady. It won't take an hour for this restaurant to have diners, right? When the time comes, the diners in the snack shop come and go, making a lot of noise, how can you write essays with peace of mind?
Moreover, this matter is not easy to publicize in the occasion of people coming and going.
He expressed serious doubts that the document could be finalized in an hour.
Since Liu Qing received the dispatch of His Royal Highness King Yu, and he was facing an unreliable young woman, he naturally wanted to get the errand done as soon as possible.
"Qi Niangzi, why don't we find a secluded place to talk?" Liu Qing suggested.
Ye Xinyan had already sketched out the preparations for the cattle farm yesterday, and she knew it in her heart, so she naturally knew that the paperwork could be done in a short time.
She shook her head and said, "That's it, isn't Steward Liu in a hurry?" It is also laborious to dump the place. ”
Qi Jiaer learns to write these days, and she has to keep accounts on weekdays, and the pen, ink, paper, and inkstones in the store are ready-made. Ye Xinyan brought a pen and paper, pushed the pen and paper to Liu Qing with a grin, and said: "Although the little woman can write a few words, she can't see people when she writes. ”
Then he handed the inkstone and ink strip to Hongzhi: "There is Brother Lao." ”
