Although Qiu Yulan's words were powerful, but thinking that Qiu Jinzhu's sisters and brothers were not very old, they forced them to kneel for a long time, and with Zhou's mother's plea, they let them go.

However, the subordinates who came with them couldn't get out of it: "Su He, you go and admit it, you have done the right thing with us in the past, especially those who have wronged you, don't let any of them go, all of them are allowed to leave after the board!" ”

Qiu Yulan has a very good memory: "What Mother Sun, Mother Fan, Xiuyan, and the coachman and entourage who sent us to the General's Mansion last time, all dragged me over to teach me the family law - those who are not here also call over, dare not come, you remember the name and tell me!" I'm going to give them the rules myself! ”

It was easy for her to persuade Ruan Qingyan to let her go, just to seize the opportune opportunity to rob while the time was right, how could she not use the topic to play?

So Qiu Yulan ordered Chun Dye: "You go too, in case Su Hemian is tender and soft-hearted, you go and hold up the scene!" Be sure to let them know today how to treat me in the future! It's not just me, it's you! ”

…… When Xia Ran came back from the General's Mansion, he heard the sound of crying and shouting in the courtyard from a distance. She was taken aback for a moment, and hurriedly ran into the courtyard gate, only to see Su He leading the two mothers-in-law brought back from the General's Mansion, who were urging the subordinates in the courtyard to take the board, so she breathed a sigh of relief.

"What's going on?" Xia Ran asked in surprise.

"The county lord ordered them to follow the rules!" Su He was young in the end, although he invited himself to come out to supervise the punishment, listening to the cries of forgiveness one after another, he was still a little nervous, and said absent-mindedly, "Sister go in, the county lord is waiting for you to reply." ”

Xia Ran looked around suspiciously, and then stepped into the door.

"Does my cousin also know about this 'end of the world'?" Qiu Yulan was a little surprised when she heard her advice, "Their business is quite good?" ”

Xia Ran whispered: "Last time Sister Dong Ran went out at night, she was actually looking for them. ”

Then the strength of this organization is really not weak - you must know that the assassination case at the gate of the Gongyuan has not been able to find the murderer until now, and the case cannot be closed, Qiu Dian spent a lot of effort to ensure that Li Gui was not imprisoned......

"Then my cousin must know their market?" Qiu Yulan asked.

"Childe said that you let the Lian family go over and entrust him, and the accounts will be written to him." Xia Ran's voice was low, "Childe has looked for them several times before, and the steward over there was only transferred from the south...... I'm very familiar with Childe.。 ”

Qiu Yulan almost bit her tongue: "Familiar?!" "Listening to the tone, it's like an old customer to the point where you can get a discount without having to take out your membership card, how many times has Ruan Qingyan done business with them?

A terrible thought came to her mind: shouldn't her cousin have done business with his former mother-in-law and brother-in-law with "Tianya"...... So I heard that the Queen Mother went to find his former mother and brother-in-law......

Xia Ran said embarrassedly: "In short, it's good to keep accounts, and you don't need to pay for it from the county lord or the Lian family." ”

Qiu Yulan looked at her expression that she didn't know how to answer, hooked the corners of her mouth, and said, "Since that's the case, then I'll ...... tomorrow Oh, tomorrow won't work, I've got to thank you. Let's go to the Lian family to explain the day after tomorrow. ”

Speaking of this, she was suddenly surprised: "Shane's cousin...... How is it written? ”

The people immediately looked at each other!

Seeing this, Qiu Yulan sighed and put down the tea bowl: "What, go see if Xiuyan is carried back?" Ask her to open a copy of her aunt's former Shane book and copy it for me...... No! It's to learn how to write a gratitude table! ”

Xia Ran bit her lip and smiled, bowed and withdrew to find someone.

But after a while, she came back in a hurry and announced: "The daughter and eldest lady of the Uncle Qian family have come to visit, and now they have been invited to sit in the flower hall in front of them!" ”

"Miss Kazuya?" Qiu Yulan suddenly thought of the young lady he heard when she sneaked next door last night, and was shocked, "Could it be her?" Why did you come to me all of a sudden? Did she notice me hiding in the house yesterday? ”

She groaned and didn't answer immediately - Mother Zhou, who came in with her feet, hurriedly persuaded quietly: "County Lord, you should go and see it, although this Miss He's father is not a court official, he is the descendant of the general of Zhenbei, and his grandfather is still Jiang Xiang's master!" ”

"Why don't I want to see him, but I wonder why this one has never heard of him, why did he suddenly come to me?" Qiu Yulan frowned.

Mother Zhou didn't think so: "Miss He's shrewd and capable...... her voice was low, "Loved by people...... Profit-seeking. There are many people she visits inexplicably, and she probably finds a way to get money that the people who are visited have not found out...... However, I heard that she is still very well-behaved when it comes to business, so don't worry. ”

It's better if she really comes to talk about business, I'm afraid that she is not here to talk about business, but to find trouble!

Qiu Yulan smiled bitterly: "Okay, I'll go see you, don't make people wait for a long time and think that I have a shelf!" ”

When I arrived at the flower hall in front, I saw more than a dozen Chinese clothes surrounded by a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl, sitting upright in the hall, holding a fragrant tea and tasting it slowly.

Hearing the footsteps of Qiu Yulan entering the door, the girl got up with a smile and greeted her: "I took the liberty to visit and disturb the county lord!" He bowed.

"Don't torture me, this sister." Since Qiu Yulan knew that the other party was not small, he naturally couldn't really hold up the county lord's shelf, so he stepped forward politely to help, and took the opportunity to look - this and the eldest lady is a hibiscus face that is happy and hateful, with bent eyebrows, burning phoenix eyes, wearing ultramarine ground and branch patterns, wide sleeves and curved skirts, a fallen horse bun, not many hairpin rings, and about two or three emerald beaded flowers and a pair of jade steps at a glance.

There are no flashy decorations on the whole body, but it also does not lose everyone's delicate bearing, Qiu Yulan guessed whether she was thinking that she was dressed like this in the filial piety period? While stretching out his hand to greet the guest, he asked her to return to her seat.

The two sat down, and the eldest lady introduced herself with the small word "water gold", and Qiu Yulan hurriedly said her girlfriend name - and then the eldest lady pulled her, chatting all the way from the weather, season, and diet, and knew that Qiu Lulan also raised a little lion cat, and told her about the experience of raising cats for a long time......

Qiu Yulan also tried to find the key point from her topic at first, but later found out that ...... This eldest lady ...... Is it a special door-to-door chat? It's all about it!

Finally, seeing that Chenguang was not early, He Shuijin took the tea and moistened his throat, and then said with a smile: "Look at my memory, I took the liberty to come to the door today, and there is something to discuss with you, Sister Qiu." ”

Qiu Yulan secretly wiped her sweat: "You can be regarded as getting to the point!" Busy preparing for battle: "Sister, please speak!" ”

"Dare to ask Sister Qiu if there is a female gentleman to teach?" He Shui Jin asked with a smile.

"But there is no ......" Qiu Yulan guessed that she might have to introduce a female gentleman to herself-she immediately hesitated, as if she didn't want to accept the cousin of the Lian family to live with her in the palace before, who knows if the female gentleman introduced to Shui Jin is good or bad?

In particular, he has an extraordinary identity and pursues profits for others - but how much benefit can he get by introducing a female gentleman? If something goes wrong, there must be an inside story!

"That's right." Sure enough, when He Shui Jin heard this, he smiled heartily and said, "I recommend a Mr. Shao to my sister, who is also from a beautiful girl, and is quite famous in the boudoir in Beijing - she is now teaching Princess Chunfu in the Jiang family courtyard next door to the palace, but Princess Chunfu has learned almost in the past few years, and she wanted to continue to keep Mr. Shao as a companion, but Mr. Shao insisted on 'no merit and no luck'." As for Princess Chunfu, she wants to associate with Mr. Shao often, so she asked me to ask my sister if she would like to hire Mr. Shao? ”

She also explained, "Princess Chunfu is the eighteenth lady of the Jiang family, Jiang Qizheng. ”

This statement sounds reasonable, but when Qiu Yulan thought of Jiang Yashuang's proposal last night, he always felt that He Shuijin was actually entrusted by Jiang Yashuang.

"If my sister is worried about Mr. Shao's harshness, she doesn't have to." He Shui Jin saw Qiu Yulan bowing his head and thinking deeply, speculating on her concerns, and said, "Mr. Shao has a gentle temperament, gets along with his disciples, and has always been like a sister, never restraining people. ”

Qiu Yulan breathed a sigh of relief - she didn't care what Mr. Shao could teach, as long as she didn't take care of herself everywhere with Mr. Shao, after all, Heshuijin's identity was not low, and she came to the door under the trust of Princess Chunfu, so it was naturally not appropriate to reject it if she could give her face.

Thinking of this, Qiu Yulan smiled and said: "Sister, you misunderstood, I was thinking that I used to be taught by my mother, and I never invited a female gentleman, so I don't know how to invite a gentleman...... After thinking about this etiquette of inviting Mr., I was out of my mind! ”

He Shuijin knew that she was talking about the scene, and he didn't break it, and said with a smile: "What's this?" Mr. Shao is a broad person, and you are now keeping filial piety, in my opinion, it is enough to do a simple job. If you don't understand, I'll send someone to help you. ”

At that moment, the two discussed and invited Mr. Shao to come to Xihe Wangfu to sit in the hall after two days - because Qiu Yulan considered that it was about to be the day when Ruan Qingyan participated in the palace examination, and Princess Chunfu was eager to keep Mr. Shao, so they decided to set the date after the palace examination rankings came out, so that Qiu Yulan could start studying with confidence.

After saying the matter, He Shuijin excused himself on the grounds that it was late, excused himself from Qiu Yulan's stay, and left.

Of course Qiu Yulan wanted to send her - the two walked hand in hand, and said in a low voice with Shui Jin: "Sister Qiu, we just talked very happily, and we have known each other since then." If you have any inconvenience in the future, even if someone comes to me, even if I can't help you, I can ask someone for you. ”

“…… Thank you and sister. Qiu Yulan's face was grateful, and he thought to himself - it was really entrusted by Jiang Yashuang!

After sending off this eldest lady, she took Su He and the others back to her yard, but halfway, she was stopped by Kang Lizhang with an eager face: "The eldest cousin injured the seventh cousin!" ”

Qiu Yulan asked strangely: "What does this have to do with me?" ”

"It was the seventh cousin who wanted to kill the eldest cousin, and the eldest cousin injured him when he resisted." Kang Lizhang spoke quickly, "According to the seventh cousin, it was because I heard you that the eldest cousin wanted to harm him and Qiu Jinzhu, so I took a dagger and went to the eldest cousin - the eldest cousin asked you to ...... Oh no, please go to the side hall and talk now! ”

Qiu Yulan sneered and said, "You asked the eldest brother to call all the punished subordinates in my courtyard over to interrogate him, when did I mention him?!" She flicked her sleeves in annoyance, "This kind of mess makes them make trouble on their own, and don't bother me!" ”

Taking advantage of the fact that Kang Lizhang was pushed away, Qiu Yulan quietly caught the paper ball she handed from the bottom of her sleeve......
