Chapter 224: Raising Tigers is a Problem
Song Yao is used to taking a nap, unless it is a big event, the next person will not alarm her.
After waking up, Red Sleeves went into the room and reported: "Yun Gongzi is here, this will be sitting in the flower hall." ”
"How long have you been here? Why don't you call me? Song Yao said sleepily.
Since returning to Yunzhou City, Song Yao has not met Yun Zhongxiao, but she has been paying attention to Yun Zhongxiao's situation and secretly helping a little.
The brother and sister silently did things for each other, but neither of them told each other what they meant, because they didn't want each other to owe favors, otherwise there would be no point in worshipping.
The red sleeves skillfully served Song Yao to wash and change clothes, combed her hair, put on light makeup, and followed Song Yao to the flower hall to meet guests.
"It's all red-sleeved, this girl is not sensible, and the eldest brother won't wake me up when he comes, and he will punish her with moon silver when he turns around." Song Yao greeted with a smile.
"If she wakes you up, she's ignorant." Yun Zhongxiao put down the teacup and said, "Little sister, are you separated from your eldest brother?" ”
"Big brother misunderstood, it's just that big brother has so many things to deal with now, how can I keep you waiting." Song Yao had just woken up and was a little thirsty, so she picked up the teacup and took a sip.
"You're in such a hurry to go to the capital, but what's the matter?" Yun Zhongxiao asked straight to the point.
"Hmm." Song Yao didn't hide it, so she told Yun Zhongxiao everything Hu Jiayue mentioned in her heart.
Recently, he has been too busy, Yun Zhongxiao has not paid too much attention to the affairs in the capital, and there are a lot of secret letters in the secret passage, but he doesn't know that Song Yao's business has been destroyed.
"This jade pendant little sister put it away, and you and I bowed orally that day, and we have not exchanged tokens. This jade pendant is my belongings, if you hold it, anyone in the Yun family's shop can call it, that is, several old grandfathers of the Yun family will sell face. Yun Zhong untied the jade pendant around his waist and handed it to Song Yao.
What Yun Zhongxiao didn't say was that this jade pendant represented his identity as the concubine of the Yun family, and he could also withdraw 100,000 taels of silver at one time with this thing.
It's not to guard against Song Yao, but Yun Zhongxiao is afraid that after he says it, Song Yao won't take it.
"Then I can take it all, it may be of great use to let the Yun family sell face like this." Song Yao accepted it with a smile.
Although the Yun family is a businessman, many of the daughters of the Yun family are married to the children of the official family, and there is also a concubine in the palace, and she is very favored.
With this token, it is tantamount to giving yourself a lot of contacts.
"The little sister doesn't have the ability of the eldest brother, and the role of this jade pendant is not as good as that of the eldest brother, but if the eldest brother is in a hurry, he can use this jade pendant to go to any store under the name of Song Ji, and it is not a problem to use people and money." Song Yao's return gift is also a big gesture.
Yun Zhongxiao originally wanted to help Song Yao give her this jade pendant, but at this moment, seeing that Song Yao returned such a big gift, if she didn't receive it, she was afraid that Song Yao would not accept him.
After a little thought, Yun Zhongxiao smiled and put it in his sleeve pocket.
"Little sister who knows me, in order to keep the name of the young master of the Yun family, I am really poor. And after cleaning up so many people, it is indeed a bit lacking now. Yun Zhongxiao laughed.
"I'll go to the capital tomorrow, here in Yunzhou City, if the eldest brother is inconvenient to come forward, and if there is a place where the younger sister needs help, just go to find someone who is cute, and she will handle it herself." And over there in the capital, does my eldest brother need me to bring some things back? Song Yao asked.
"I got something interesting, you can help me bring it back to Yaoyao." After Yun Zhongxiao finished speaking, he smiled and said: "Sister Yun Zhongyao, nine years old this year, has a quirky temperament, and likes the dolls you designed the most." ”
"The eldest brother's sister is my sister, but I never thought that there was such a fate, and there is a Yao character in the name." Song Yao chuckled, turned back to Red Sleeves and ordered, "You go and take the things, remember to remind me to send them to Sister Yaoyao." ”
"Yes, ma'am." Red Sleeves answered.
"My little sister is about to set off, and there must be a lot of things to bring, so I won't give you those cumbersome things for my brother. There is a congratulatory gift with 10,000 taels of silver tickets, and the little sister has a smooth journey. Yun Zhongxiao took out 10,000 taels of silver and put it on the table, and said to the red sleeves: "On the occasion of the city, thanks to the care of the girl with red sleeves for a long time, there are some intentions outside, which are given to the girl with red sleeves, and I hope the girl will accept it." ”
"Childe is the brother-in-law of Madame, and he is also half of the master of the slave, how dare the slave and maid be a thank you gift to the son." Red Sleeves is busy.
"What the righteous brother gave you, you can keep it, just keep it as a dowry." Song Yao knew that Yun Zhongxiao didn't like to owe favors, so she smiled and quipped: "Qingshan has already proposed marriage, and when Red Sleeves finishes keeping the filial piety period for his deceased mother, he will get married." If the eldest brother is there at that time, he will come to support the scene, so that the kid in Qingshan knows that Red Sleeves has a backer, lest he marry my baby and not know how to cherish it. ”
"Madame!" Red Sleeves blushed embarrassedly, and hurriedly curtsied: "The slave and maid will go and tidy it up, and the lady will call the slave and maid if she has something." ”
Red Sleeves went out at this moment, also to make it convenient for Song Yao and Yun Zhongxiao to talk.
There were no outsiders in the house, Yun Zhongxiao restrained his smile and said to Song Yao: "If you can set fire to your shop in the capital, those people must have some background, you must not fight head-on, otherwise you will only suffer." There is a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger in the capital, and the relationship is intertwined, maybe you provoke an inconspicuous person, and there is a big backer behind you. ”
"What the eldest brother said is very true, and the younger sister will pay attention." Song Yao nodded.
She naturally thought about these questions, but Yun Zhongxiao reminded her, which was also a heart, which made Song Yao more vigilant in her heart.
Yun Zhongxiao has lived in the capital since he was a child, and these things are all too familiar.
"In addition, when you go to the capital this time, you have to expand your network of contacts. The daughters of the Yun family are all marriages of interest, and I don't guarantee that every daughter of the Yun family will give me face, but I believe that you look at people's eyes. To put it bluntly, as long as there are interests, and there is me, the young master of the Yun family, they will give you some face, and it will be convenient for you to act. Afraid that Song Yao would be embarrassed to use this jade pendant, Yun Zhongxiao said it thoroughly.
Song Yao looked at the jade pendant in her hand, and suddenly felt extremely heavy.
Yun Zhongxiao's words have already given her the Yun family as a backer, and she understands it.
"After you go back to Beijing for a short rest, you will take my post to Yunfu to meet my mother and little sister, and give this letter to my mother, and she will help you." Yun Zhongxiao took out another golden post, and a letter painted with fire paint.
It was not because he was afraid that Song Yao would peek, but in order to let his mother know that Song Yao did not know the content of this letter.
"Thank you big brother for being so thoughtful." Song Yao took it with a smile, shook the post and said, "It's very much the status of the Yun family, this golden one, you can know that it is something from a rich family at a glance." ”
The price of gold dust is not cheap, and the gold dust on the prayer post really contains gold, although it is very small, but it is not something that ordinary people can use.
But Song Yao didn't know that the Yun family's worship posts were also divided into three, six, nine and so on, this kind of golden worship post did not need to be greeted in advance, as long as you took the post, you could enter the door of the Yun family.
Yun Zhongxiao didn't explain, he couldn't stand by Song Yao's side to protect her as his sweetheart, so he silently did these little things for her behind her, just watch her be happy.
"Also, if you need manpower, you can go to the shopkeeper of Song's sister-in-law's restaurant in the capital, and he will help you arrange everything." Yun Zhongxiao specially commanded.
The shopkeeper in the capital seems to be a middle-aged greasy uncle, but in fact he is a hidden stake buried in the clouds, not only collecting intelligence for him, but also a contact point with the secret guard.
Song Yao didn't like Yun Zhongxiao's kindness, so she said, "Okay, my little sister has written it down." ”
"It's not early, there is still something to do at the Chamber of Commerce, so I'll leave first, let's see you in the capital." Loose in the clouds.
There is still a month and a half before the New Year's Pass, Song Yao is setting off now, if she is in a hurry, she can get to the capital in about half a month.
And Yun Zhongxiao will return to Beijing at the latest in a month, which is a common practice.
But Yun Zhongxiao didn't tell anyone that when he returned to the capital this time, after the New Year, he would have to rectify the Yun family well, so that those who were careful would either crawl under his feet or disappear from the Yun family completely.
Of course, this disappearance has two results, one is to enter the ancestral grave, and the other is to never be a child of the Yun family again!
Song Yao didn't know Yun Zhongxiao's thoughts, otherwise he would definitely say, 'Big brother, you should have done this a long time ago, those people don't treat you as a brother in order to fight for power, they are the real enemies.' ’
"Big brother, you said so much, and my sister also has a few words to say to you." Song Yao pondered for a moment, and then spoke as he was about to get up.
"You and I are brother and sister, just say what you have to say." Loose in the clouds.
"Governor Lin's family was poisoned, eldest brother should know, right?" Song Yao asked.
"Hmm." Yun Zhongxiao nodded.
"Second Master Lin murdered Governor Lin's family for power and money. Although the Yun family is not famous, the wealth of the Yun family is the most moving. Big brother, as a young master, if you can't let the Yun family work together, then the Yun family will be eaten away sooner or later. The heavy responsibility on the eldest brother, I don't need to say more, I definitely don't want to see that day come, right? Song Yao asked again.
Yun Zhongxiao smiled bitterly: "The Yun family's business is all over the Great Zhou Kingdom, and when it really falls apart, it will not be far from the extinction of the clan." ”
The property of the Yun family, the royal family is jealous and wants to possess it at the same time.
As long as there is a crack in the Yun family, it will definitely let the royal family take advantage of the loophole, and if there is a big crime of robbing the family and exterminating the clan, everything in the Yun family will be royal.
Don't say it's royal, even those peers will want to compete for the Yun family's business and drive the Yun family to a dead end.
Song Yao can still see through an outsider, but the Yun family can't understand this.
Maybe some people can understand that it is only in the face of interests that human nature is selfish, and they all want to keep the best for themselves, thinking that they have the ability to control the world, but because of their different backgrounds, they do not have the opportunity to show their talents.
"Since the eldest brother knows, he shouldn't give those jumping clowns a chance, and if he doesn't trample them under his feet, he is betting with the Yun family's century-old foundation. Even if the eldest brother doesn't care about these wealth, but the Yun family still has so many followers of the eldest brother, as well as the closest relatives that the eldest brother cares about, does the eldest brother want them to take risks with you? ”
Song Yao said: "Second Master Lin is an example, I hope that the eldest brother will not follow in the footsteps of Governor Lin, raising tigers will eventually be troubled!" ”
Yun Zhongxiao's hand holding the tea cup tightened, and the joints made a gurgling sound due to the exertion.
Song Yao knew that Yun Zhongxiao could listen to what she said, and it was not difficult to see from Yun Zhongxiao's expression that Yun Zhongxiao had also thought about this, so he didn't say anything anymore.
Even if the two of them are married, they are still brothers and sisters of the opposite sex in the end, Song Yao doesn't want to participate in the internal struggle of the Yun family, otherwise it will only bring trouble to Yun Zhongxiao.
Sending away Yun Zhongxiao, who was full of worries, Song Yao turned around and put away the silver ticket and other things.
is about to go to the capital, I don't know if Helian Sheng will sweep the couch to greet him.
I haven't seen him for a few months, but I really miss him.
"Lian Sheng, we are about to meet, if you dare to provoke the rotten peach blossoms, see how I clean you up." Song Yao's expression was fierce, but there was sweetness in her eyes.
