Chapter Ninety-Five: Sunrise in the East and Rain in the West
"Gongzi Xie, you and Huo Jiuye are old acquaintances?" The person who spoke was Li Zhen, the third son of the Li family.
Xie Sicheng smiled: "Huo Jiuye is a frequent visitor to the Chuwen Hall. ”
Huo Roufeng immediately understood that Xie Sicheng did not hide his identity anymore, he appeared in Hangzhou as the owner of the Pick-up Hall.
She also smiled and said, "Yes, when I met Gongzi Xie in Zhuwentang before, I didn't know that Zhuwentang was Gongzi Xie's property. ”
Li Zhen smiled: "Huo Jiuye is also a book lover? ”
Huo Roufeng said: "I am young and have not read a few books, but my father is a lover of books. ”
The implication is that the Huo family wants to run a righteous school.
Li Zhen was stunned, he didn't expect the Huo family to have this plan, it didn't cost much money to run a righteous school, but it was not something that could be done if he wanted to, and if he was not careful, he would have a reputation for grandstanding.
Master Huo had this idea back then, but he didn't do it in the end, thinking about it, this Huo Jiu is young, he doesn't know the height of the sky, the literary style in Jiangnan is prosperous, and everyone in Shilin abounds, and the Huo family is just a small businessman, the Huo family runs a righteous school, and where are those famous families?
But this kind of thing can't be said to your face, Li Zhen's impression of Huo Jiu is a little worse, the legendary shrewd and capable Huo Da Niang, at least she didn't teach this only brother well.
"It turns out that Huo Jiugongzi wants to start a righteous school, which is similar to the original intention of our Chuwentang, if Jiugongzi is free, you might as well find an opportunity to sit down and discuss this matter."
Xie Sicheng's tone is slow, but every sentence and every word seems to be able to penetrate into people's hearts, he is as intimately as the moon on the horizon, but his voice is like a warm spring breeze, which makes people's hearts move.
As soon as his words came out, Li Zhen was slightly stunned, Xie Sicheng actually intended to befriend Huo Jiu? He and Xie Sicheng can also be considered to be able to talk, but they have never heard Xie Sicheng talk about starting a righteous school.
This Xie Sicheng, how many things are there that they can't see through?
Huo Roufeng's little face bloomed with a smile again, and she said to Xie Sicheng: "Okay, I'll be the east another day, and invite Gongzi Xie, Gongzi Li, Gongzi Jiao, and Gongzi Meng to sit together." ”
Coming out of the Li family, Huo Roufeng walked with the wind again, not only did she meet Xie Sicheng at the Li family, but this time, Xie Sicheng took the initiative to have a relationship with her.
That's right, they all said that they should discuss it well, and that is to communicate.
After living for two lifetimes, it was the first time she had friends she could make friends with, and she was very happy. In the short fourteen years of her previous life, she was a lady of the heavens, although there was no shortage of nobles around her, but there was a difference between monarchs and ministers, they were not her friends.
In this life, her sister has always protected her, and although all the sons and brothers in Hangzhou know her, none of them are her friends.
Before that, the Song brothers played more with her.
There is also Zhanhuai, but that guy, don't mention it.
When Huo Roufeng returned home, she asked Cai Qin to sew her clothes embroidered on the cuffs, and asked for a jade wrench.
The next day, Jumbo Xuan sent her a few good jade wrenches for her to choose, she tried them one by one, none of them were fit, her hands were too small, and her fingers were so slender that even the smallest wrench could not be fitted.
Fortunately, Huo Jiuye had a big heart, and soon threw this matter out of the clouds.
The Song brothers came to her and brought a letter from Wuxi.
As Huo Roufeng guessed before, the case of the Zhao family ended with Zhao Qingtai's suicide, the Zhao family was fined 50,000 taels of silver, all the rice and grain in the granary were confiscated, and Zhao Zishan and Zhao Zishen were sentenced to forty canes.
Although the forty canes were not fatal, the two masters of the Zhao family also died nine times for life, and they are still lying in bed.
The Song family paid a fine of 10,000 taels of silver, and was fined 1,000 quintals of rice, after the old lady Zhao committed suicide, Wuxi Wei seized many rice shops of the Song family, although there were no other hardships, but the Song family's business was all over.
Previously, Song Erye and Song Sanye were arrested by Wuxi Wei, and the Song family spent a lot of money in order to redeem people, and now they have paid fines and fines, and they have spent all the money from the sale of the house.
The two brothers burst into tears, and when they came out of Wuxi, they never thought that their family would come to this step.
Now that Mrs. Huo has gone to the capital, it is rumored in Hangzhou that the second room of the Huo family is also going to move to the capital, and the brothers of the Song family are even more flustered, what should Song Shen and Mrs. Huo's relatives do? Huo Jiu is gone, can they still stay in Hangzhou? What's more, they are still doing business with the Yongfeng.
Huo Roufeng understood their thoughts and asked, "Two Brother Song, do you want to go to the capital to have fun together?" ”
Song Shen's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said: "I have long heard that the capital is a place of wealth and wealth, and it is really a pleasure to go to visit." ”
Huo Roufeng looked at Song Song again: "Does Third Brother Song also want to go?" ”
Her eyes were bright, her big black and white eyes were like a stream of spring water, Song Song's face was red for no reason, the corners of his mouth moved, and he said after a while: "My family is still in Wuxi, I want to wait until the business is completed, and then I will take the silver back to Wuxi to have a look." ”
I wanted to send some money back to my family.
Huo Roufeng nodded secretly, and couldn't help but glance at Song Song a few more times, but saw that Song Song's face was as red as the morning clouds, and she asked, "Are you hot?" ”
Without waiting for Song Song to answer, he said to the servant beside him: "Go and bring two bowls of chilled mung bean soup." ”
A bowl of chilled mung bean soup went down, and the red tide on Song Song's face faded.
His elder brother is a grandson, and since he said that he would not go to the capital, then this matter was settled.
Song Shen pursed his thin lips tightly and did not speak again.
Since he had already spoken, Song Song simply said what he meant: "Ninth brother, I heard that you are going to the capital, I don't know how that business can be done at that time, I have a reluctant feeling, and I want to ask the ninth brother to say hello to the shopkeepers before leaving." ”
Huo Roufeng said with a smile: "Third Brother Song, don't worry, I will take care of this matter before leaving." ”
With her words, Song Song breathed a sigh of relief, this silver is too important to the Song family today, if it was Mrs. Huo who let them become shareholders in the first place, he would not be worried, but Huo Jiu is just a child, and he has no longevity, maybe he will forget about that incident in a blink of an eye.
Back in the rented yard, Song Song was about to go back to his room, but Song Shen stopped him: "Third brother, if you stay in Hangzhou and keep an eye on business, I will follow Xiao Jiu to the capital, we can't give up halfway about the things that the second uncle and father explained." ”
Song Song sighed and patted Song Shen's shoulder distressedly: "Fifth brother, in this family matter, it was our Song family who climbed high at the beginning, otherwise my father and third uncle would not let us have a friendship with Huo Jiupan, and now that it is today, you see the attitude of the Huo family, as if you can marry us?" ”
