Chapter 171: Clues

Chapter 171 Clues

Ming Fei and Gong Yuanhe talked about the families picked out by the Chen family: "In a hurry. I really can't find anything suitable, so I pick and choose, and there are only these three. One is the Fuming Bu political envoy from the Liupin experience, 24 years old this year, widowed, childless, but alcoholic; the other, although he is a showman and has a medium family, it is a pity that he is a posthumous child, and there is a particularly powerful mother-in-law in the family; There is another one, it is Fang Qi, the youngest son of the owner of the drunken Linglong Wine Workshop, you must also know each other. ”

The youngest son of the owner of the drunken Linglong Wine Shop is handsome and smart, not to mention, he is still a good hand at doing business. It's a pity that there are too many brothers in the family, and they are destined to move out and be self-reliant. Gong Yuanhe tilted his head sideways and thought about it for a while, and said, "Don't mention the first one, tell her the last two first, focusing on Fang Qi." If she is willing, you can call Aunt Zhu to talk to me again. ”

That night, Ming Fei heard Gong Yuanhe tossing and turning.

Breakfast was had on the second day. Gong Yuanhe said: "You prepare fifty taels of silver for me, and I won't come back for dinner." ”

Ming Fei raised his head to look at him, the morning light illuminated the skin on his face as smooth and delicate as jade, and his chin that had just been shaved looked extremely cold and hard, and the indecent look on his face seemed to be becoming more and more rare these days. She stretched out a finger and gently wiped his chin: "Do you want to prepare a decanting soup?" ”

Gong Yuanhe was a little moved by her sudden gentleness, and blinked: "No, I won't get drunk." ”

Ming Fei said, "Is there anything you want to tell me?" ”

Gong Yuanhe lowered his head and said for a long time: "I'm going to find Fang Qi for dinner." ”

Ming Fei smiled slightly: "You be careful." I also have to pay my aunt's expenses for the next month in advance according to what we agreed before. ”

Gong Yuanhe raised the corners of his mouth: "Okay." ”

After not seeing her for a few days, Second Lady Gong looked very tired, I don't know if it was a psychological effect, Ming Fei felt that the green shadow under her eye sockets seemed to be heavier.

Gong Jingqi saw Ming Fei looking at Second Mrs. Gong's face, so she smiled and said, "I went to my grandmother's house yesterday, it was very lively, and my mother was happy and drank more wine." Hungover. ”

Ming Fei looked at Aunt Zhu: "Please make some porridge to warm the stomach and nourish the stomach to eat, adjust it for a day or two, and it will be fine." ”

Aunt Zhu smiled obediently: "Exactly, but Mrs. said that she has no appetite." The big * milk just persuaded the lady. ”

Ming Fei said a series of nice and sympathetic words, and Second Mrs. Gong was a little annoyed when she heard it, and held her forehead coyly: "Okay, okay, just serve it." Go and settle your accounts, and settle it as soon as possible, so that I can teach you the rest. ”

Ming Fei smiled: "Auntie is uncomfortable. How can a nephew and daughter-in-law abandon it? It's time to serve soup and medicine. With his hands and feet, he quickly took the conpoy winter melon soup served by Gong Yanbi and sent it to Mrs. Gong.

Seeing that she was smiling attentively, Second Mrs. Gong had a very bad premonition, so she reluctantly drank two sips, and then lost her temper with Aunt Zhu: "How did you do it, it's so salty, you ruined that scallop in vain!" ”

Aunt Zhu lowered her head to admit her mistake, and Second Mrs. Gong jumped out in a row: "How many years have you been an old man, you know that the family has a lot of expenses, and you are nervous, this scallop is expensive, and you are so careless in surviving." Punish you with half a month's monthly money to compensate for this scallop! You go to the kitchen and tell whoever wastes the ingredients in the future will use his monthly money to pay for it! While supplies last! ”

Ming Fei stood aside with a smile, and watched her pretend to be a poor concubine, no matter how mad she was, she didn't open her mouth to persuade her. Since she has a hangover, she must have a dry mouth, she doesn't replenish the soup, and she is still mad here, and there will always be times when her mouth is dry.

Second Mrs. Gong said with a dry mouth. I didn't see Ming Fei come to persuade or talk, and I saw that she was calm and relaxed, and she was a little puzzled, didn't she come to ask for money?

While she was in doubt, Ming Fei had already followed her topic: "My nephew and daughter-in-law are wondering why our family's money is not enough?" It's obviously those people, and the cost of partiality is very large. Listening to my aunt say this today, I finally understood what the problem was. If I knew this, I should have asked my aunt. ”

Second Mrs. Gong sneered: "That's right, I don't know the price of firewood and rice if I don't have a family, so I said that I want you to follow me to study hard, and it really makes sense." ”

"Exactly." Ming Fei said with a smile, "Auntie, we gave the silver for the happy event yesterday, and we only have fifty taels of silver left, but in a few days, Mrs. Zhou Tongzhi will celebrate her birthday, and these fifty taels of silver can't even prepare a decent gift, can Auntie advance next month's silver to us?" Anyway, it's not a few days away. ”

I didn't hear Second Mrs. Gong's answer for a long time, Gong Jingqi leaned over to take a look, and smiled apologetically: "Sister-in-law, my mother is weak and fell asleep, otherwise sister-in-law, you will come again after settling the account?" ”

Even if she settles the account and comes again, Second Mrs. Gong is still asleep, playing a scoundrel, right? Who wouldn't. Ming Fei smiled, shook the fan and said, "It's okay, I'll discuss your brother first, take something to be it, and then talk about it after this time." Third sister, take your needlework. Accompany me to the bookkeeper to settle the accounts. ”

Gong Jingqi said embarrassedly: "Sister-in-law, my mother is not feeling well today, otherwise, please ask the second sister to accompany you?" ”

Ming Fei said reluctantly: "Third sister, it's so easy for me to beg you once, and you will push back." That's it, I'm not too strong, second sister, do you also dislike me? ”

Gong Yanbi was waiting for the opportunity to ask Ming Fei about her family's lifelong events, and when she heard this, she hurriedly smiled: "The third sister is more careful than me, and it is more suitable to take care of Mrs. As long as my sister-in-law doesn't dislike it, I'm naturally willing. ”

Seeing that Ming Fei and Gong Yanbi went out hand in hand, Gong Jingqi sent Aunt Zhu away under the pretext of excuse, complaining to Second Mrs. Gong: "I can't hide and hide, in short, I can't rely on them." You have to give it sooner or later, why do you pinch her? I know her temper best, and I categorically refuse to say it again, this time we have to take the initiative to ask her and send her silver. She still remembers the last time she was in a dress turmoil.

Second Mrs. Gong was irritable: "As soon as she wants me, I will give it to her?" What if she uses up the next month's money in a few days, and then comes and withdraws the next month's money with me? ”

Gong Jingqi was also a little irritable, "What's next month's silver?" How long can you survive? It's just a matter of two pieces of silver. Didn't I tell you about it? In a few more days, we'll ...... How confused are you! Like a child. What kind of gas to bet on? This is the time to be angry? ”

Second Mrs. Gong was reprimanded by her daughter so much that she couldn't find anything to say, and said angrily: "I'm just angry but they calculated, if only your brother was more angry." ”

Gong Jingqi took the opportunity to say: "The far rank is good. But you're too strict with Yuanji, and you're too doting on Yuanji. Yuanzhi is not a child anymore, you listen to his thoughts more, scold him less, Yuanji let him be with his fifth cousin less, you see yesterday, he was a child, and he was drunk with adults, what does it look like? And so on. I'm afraid it's about the same as my fifth cousin. ”

Second Mrs. Gong was listening before, but later when she heard the mention of Shao Wu, she felt that her daughter and son couldn't look down on her mother's family, and remembered that she and her mother-in-law mentioned the matter of repaying the money, but she was sneered at by her sister-in-law and brother-in-law, but her mother and brother didn't speak. Do you learn from your brother to discipline me? What happened to your fifth cousin? Where is he inferior to man? You look down on your grandfather's family, but you are born out of my belly! ”

Gong Jingqi was beaten for the first time when she was so old, and she was aggrieved and angry: "It's not that I look down on them, they have to be looked down upon." I borrowed our family's money and didn't pay it back, I didn't remember anything at all, and I didn't say anything, as if I was an enemy. The fifth cousin acted like that, causing our sister and brother to lose face in front of the world! There are no impermeable walls in this world, and you yourself recall that since that incident, several people have been willing to ask us ...
