Chapter 59: Gathering in the Courtyard

The big cleanup of the Forgotten Moon Residence, and the whole house heard the movement.

The second and third rooms are just waiting and seeing, and they have little to do with them. The old princess got the news and sent a few rough envoys.

Shen Qingru accepted it in full.

The old princess is also on her trust list. And the old princess is very measured, and only sends some people who are ready to fight.

Only Gong Lan made a big fire in Tao Ranju.

It's not going well for her at all these days.

Gong Ling poisoned and murdered Xiao Shizi, although it didn't climb on her. The prince didn't get to the bottom of it.

But Gong Ling is still grounded. How to buy the descendants of the Forgotten Moon House, and where did the poison come from. She, the aunt in charge of the palace, is always inseparable.

Gong Lan obviously felt that the prince had been cold to her in the past few days.

In the past, although I didn't often stay in Taoranju. But she asks to see, and she will always meet. This time, I haven't seen anyone from the prince for several days. Requests for meetings were denied. Even Xiao Yueluo went, but the prince didn't see him.

What's even more infuriating is that since the old princess handed over the housekeeping power to her, she hasn't asked about the palace for more than ten years. Now I suddenly got in my mind. I sent Mother Li to check on it several times a day.

said that he saw that she was tired and helped her share some of it. But Gong Lan knew that the old princess didn't trust her anymore. It's a warning to her.

Gong Lan secretly resisted several times. was easily resolved by the old princess.

Although the old princess has not been in charge of the palace for more than ten years, Yu Wei is still there. And she's just a side concubine, and her name is not right. Many old people in the palace did not buy her account.

Gong Lan remembered his hard work for more than ten years, and thought that he was in power. Unexpectedly, it was just a mirror. The old princess only threw a stone, and everything was gone.

Gong Lan almost ran out of breath and couldn't get up in bed.

When I heard that Forget Yueju was cleaning up the people on a large scale, I was even more furious. Is there anyone else who takes her seriously?

It's a pity that Gong Ling's lessons are still there, and Gong Lan doesn't dare to touch Shen Qingru's moldy head easily. I can only sulk on my own.

Shen Qingru didn't have anything to worry about these days, and she was refreshed. I personally cooked a pot of braised pork and eight-treasure chicken, packed it in a food box, and brought Mai'er and small buns to Cui Lao.

After Cui Lao detoxified the little bun, he came to the palace again. Shen Qingru was given dozens of bottles of antidotes and poisons.

In addition to his own development. The common and rare poisons in the rivers and lakes and backyards, Cui Lao collected some and gave them to Shen Qingru in one go.

There is also a book of poisons that he wrote himself.

Shen Qingru knew that Cui Lao was still blaming himself. Although Xiao Baozi's poisoning had nothing to do with him, no one was angry with him. But Cui Lao himself was unhappy, fortunately he was in the capital, otherwise, wouldn't Xiao Ji'er have to die under his poison?

Shen Qingru was helpless, so he had to make some food, hoping to comfort Cui Lao.

When I arrived at the small courtyard, it happened that Liu Yang was also there.

He came to explain business matters to Aunt Liu.

Since returning to Beijing, everything has been busy, and Shen Qingru has had a lot less time to pay attention to business.

Fortunately, all the workshops are on the right track, and all the sales are outsourced to Jiang Zifeng. Aunt Liu would go to the palace every two days to report on the movements. It's not a delay.

After Xiao Baozi was poisoned, Aunt Liu also went twice. Every time, he just visited Xiao Baozi and Shen Qingru, and rarely mentioned business matters, only saying that everything was going well.

Shen Qingru was not very relieved at first, after all, Aunt Liu and the others had little experience, and it was easy to make mistakes. Later, I learned from Aunt Liu that it was Jiang Zifeng who took care of everything. He solved all the problems, so that Shen Qingru could take care of Ji'er with peace of mind. Aunt Liu was afraid that Shen Qingru would be too tired, thinking that it would be good to have less trouble.

After Shen Qingru knew, his heart warmed. It is about Jiang Zifeng who looks very much like her previous bamboo horse, so she has always regarded Jiang Zifeng as her brother. Although Jiang Zifeng was born in a businessman, he is warm and thoughtful and very righteous. Accompanied by the development of Pleasant Goat step by step to the present. Shen Qingru was also very grateful to him.

Cui Lao saw that Xiao Ji'er was alive and well, and he felt a little better. Looking at it again, Shen Qingru brought delicious food, and hurriedly asked Aunt Liu to bring wine, he wanted to have a good drink.

Cui Lao is a good drinker, he is not happy with alcohol every day, and he often gets drunk. Aunt Liu took all his wine, and only allowed a small glass at each meal.

Shen Qingru came on a rare trip, and Aunt Liu didn't want to ruin everyone's interest. What's more, Cui Lao has been in a low mood for the past two days, and it is rare to be interested, so Aunt Liu hugged her daughter Hong, who has been in two altars for a long time.

Cui Lao occupied an altar, lifted the lid, poured a large bowl, drank it all in one gulp, and said with emotion: "It's still like this." ”

Aunt Liu glanced at him, "It's a pleasure now, and I won't even be able to find the way later." ”

Every time, Chang Dazhuang and Chang Shan carried him back.

Cui Lao didn't care, raised his wine glass and said, "This wine can relieve a thousand sorrows, but it's a good thing." ”

Shen Qingru said with a smile: "There is wine today and drunk today, tomorrow will be sorrowful, tomorrow will be sorrowful." Isn't it, Master? ”

Cui Lao was stunned for a moment, chewed on these two poems, and said: "Good sentence, there is wine today and drunk today, tomorrow is sorrowful, tomorrow is sorrowful, it is worthy of being my apprentice, and the mind is different." ”

It's a pity that Shen Qingru is not a man, so he can't accompany him to drink until dawn. I had to catch Chang Dazhuang. It's just that Chang Da Zhuang talks little, rarely speaks, and drinks with a stuffy head. Cui Lao said ten sentences, and he could get a "hmm", which was a little boring. Better than nothing. Once you're used to it, it's not fun.

The two men were only interested in drinking. Leaving Shen Qingru and a few people chatting while eating.

The small courtyard does not distinguish between dignity and inferiority. Everyone gathered around a table and ate and drank together. Shen Qingru felt very warm. Whether it is in the palace or in the Hou Mansion, there are only a few masters who can eat at the table, at the beginning, Mai'er and Aunt Lan stood on the side and waited for her to eat, Shen Qingru was still very uncomfortable, and slowly got used to it.

It was this small courtyard that made her feel more kind.

The light rain has not been seen for many days, and it is becoming more and more watery. Aunt Liu found her husband again in Beijing. Now embroidery has been learned, and etiquette has been learned a lot.

Even if it can't be compared with those ladies, it can be regarded as a proper little jasper. When she is older, she will choose a good family, don't ask for great wealth and wealth, just be safe and smooth.

After experiencing the incident of Shen Qingru and Xiao Baozi now, Aunt Liu deeply felt that it was better for these powerful families not to be touched, or not to be touched.

Xiaoyu is holding a rattle and teasing the little bun. The child is simple-minded, and she and Chang Shui are the fastest to accept the change of Shen Qingru's identity.

In her heart, no matter what Shen Qingru's identity is, she is the big sister who gave her sour jujube cake at the beginning.

Now that the family has money, she can buy whatever she wants. But Xiaoyu's favorite food is still sour jujube cake.

Shen Qingru's waist hung the first purse embroidered by Xiaoyu. The feet are crooked, the embroidered mandarin ducks are like ducks, Shen Qingru took them in the palace, and was laughed at several times.

Xiaoyu saw her today, was happy for a while, and said to Shen Qingru: "Sister Shen, when I learn well, I will embroider you with a better look." This one is so ugly, don't bring it. ”

Shen Qingru touched her head, "Okay." I waited for the purse of the light rain. ”

After eating, Liu Yang got down to business: "The young master plans to open a store in the capital, specializing in selling Pleasant Goats. The shop is already optimistic and will be able to open in two days. "Today, he just came to Aunt Liu to talk about this, and it happened that Shen Qingru was there, so he asked Aunt Liu to run again.

After two months of publicity, the things of Pleasant Goat once became the favorite of the nobles in Beijing. Shen Qingru and Jiang Zifeng both plan to take the high-end route, and all the things sold are checked at various levels. Everyone is spreading that the Pleasant Goat product must be a high-quality product.

There is already a Pleasant Goat hot pot restaurant and pastry shop in the capital. Everything else was sold in the Jiang family's shop. Now I have my own specialty store.

Shen Qingru said: "Gongzi Lao Jiang has bothered a lot. Go back and bring me a thank you. ”

Liu Yang said with a smile: "The young master said, this is all as it should be. After dividing the money, it is natural to do things well. ”

Jiang Zifeng shared half of Pleasant Goat's income. Now he has made a lot of money.

Although for the Jiang family, it is still a drop in the bucket. But the prospect of the Pleasant Goat, even the elders of the Jiang family are very optimistic.

Jiang Zifeng also cooperated with Pleasant Goat early because of his foresight and monopolized the business. was praised by his father. The position of the Jiang family is also becoming more and more stable.

Liu Yang said again: "The young master also wants to invite the princess to go with him on the opening day, just opposite the Zuiyue Building on South Street." ”

Zuiyue Building, Wangjiang Building, Juxian Building, are the three major restaurants in Beijing.

Wangjiang Tower belongs to the Jiang family. Juxian Building is said to belong to the Gong family. Only the origin of Zuiyue Tower is a mystery.

Jiang Zifeng was able to open the shop opposite the Zuiyue Building, which shows that he has worked hard.

Shen Qingru asked, "When?" ”

Liu Yang said: "March 12, seven days later. ”

Shen Qingru thought about it, and he didn't have anything to do that day, so he agreed.

After the two finished speaking, they looked at it again, and Cui Lao and Chang Dazhuang had already drunk under the table.

Chang Dazhuang hugged the chair legs and fell asleep. Cui Lao took the wine jar that had been out of wine for a long time, put it in his mouth, and kept pushing Chang Dazhuang, "Come, continue to drink..... True...... It's useless. ”

Shen Qingru supported his forehead, and Chang Shan and Liu Yang drove one by one and went back to the house.

Looking at the backs of the two, Aunt Liu and Shen Qingru complained: "Xiaoshan is eighteen years old, and he still doesn't care about marriage, so he will wait when he mentions it." Xiaoyang is even more, he is twenty-three years old this year, and he has no daughter-in-law, before going to Beijing, Sister Huaihua also asked me to have a good family, and I told him one earlier. ”

Twenty-three years old was indeed considered an older leftover man in ancient times. Liu Yang had no long things before, wandered outside, and didn't say anything about his relatives. Now that he is with Jiang Zifeng, and because of his business with Shen Qingru, he has become Jiang Zifeng's right-hand man. But they still didn't mention the matter of kissing, Chang Huaihua and Liu Yi were inevitably anxious.
