Chapter 111: Mother-in-law is really busy!
Song Yixiao led Qiao Qin and the others to the flower hall, saw that the seal on the cage was correct, and asked someone to open it.
These three boxes, one of which holds the title deed and the house deed; A mouthful of antique pieces; The last bite is a dazzling array of pearls.
The ancestors of the Pei family were a family of several prominent dynasties, and the famous family recorded in the history books gradually fell since the rise of the imperial examination in the previous dynasty. But as a descendant, he has never been too fierce and a loser, and his heritage still exists.
How many years of accumulation, of course, can't be fit in a mere three-person box. Song Yixiao estimated that these should be placed in the imperial capital by the Pei family since the Dingding of this dynasty.
Even so, it was enough to Qiaoqin and other people to be speechless: "The Pei family is so rich? ”
"People have accumulated for generations, how can they be underestimated?" Song Yixiao took a slight inspection, knowing that taking out one of the two boxes at random was enough for ordinary rich and noble families to make heirlooms, and he was also very surprised.
But when I thought of what I saw in Jian Limiao's place last time, I was relieved, "I look at these things a little worse than what I saw at the third uncle last time, and the really top ones may have been sent back to Youzhou long ago!" ”
Don't look at the Pei family's current power is not as good as the Jian family, if you want to talk about the ancestors, the Pei family has been an official eunuch for generations; Jian Pingyu was very poor when he was young, and he cherished his feathers, and the power leaning towards the government and the opposition was also known as "incorruptible". Therefore, Song Yixiao felt that Jian Limiao could have that room of things, and it was reasonable for the Pei family to send these three boxes now.
As for why the Yanguo Mansion does not have such a rich and noble style, the treasury is not to mention that it is far worse than Jian Limiao, and it is far worse than these three boxes, it should be because Jian Likuang and the eldest princess of the Jin Kingdom are still alive, and they have not yet divided the family for their children!
She gave the maids a few words about what she had seen in Jian Limiao's mansion, and when everyone's shock dissipated, she promised that if there was a chance in the future, she would take turns to take them to Jian Limiao's to open her eyes, and then she began to do business: first ask someone to take out everything and compare it with the roster sent with the box.
After checking that it was correct, he put the things in the box as they were, re-sealed them, and then ordered: "Put them in the library first, and Ming'er will go out to investigate the market separately, and then send someone to find out the specific situation of those land deeds and house deeds with me!" ”
If you sell so many things in one go, you will definitely suffer a loss, and the loss is not small - otherwise Pei Yourui will not entrust it. can only be slowly figured out, so as not to be bargained. This kind of long-term selling method has to keep an eye on the market.
Qiao Qin and the others agreed in unison.
Jin Xun looked at the sky and came up and said, "Grandma has seen things this afternoon, it's time to rest!" ”
Song Yi smiled and heard this, glanced at the copper leak in the corner of the house, and knew that Jian Xubai was coming back soon, and when the time came, he would definitely ask himself about going to his mother-in-law today, so he bowed his head: "I'm also a little hungry, ask the kitchen to make two plates of snacks." ”
- She used her lunch today in the mansion of the eldest princess of the Jin Kingdom, and the food and drink were all fine, but there was Ji Mingfei first, and then her in-laws had a big fight in front of her, if it weren't for her mother-in-law who didn't dare to leave, she would have been hiding in the clouds.
In this case, if you are left to eat by your mother-in-law, how can you have any appetite?
After eating the single cage of golden milk crisp and concubine red taken by Jinxun, Song Yixiao took a sip of the warm rose dew, and was about to speak, when he caught a glimpse of Jian Xubai walking in while pulling the collar of the plate, he hurriedly wiped his fingertips with a handkerchief, and got up to greet him: "Are you back?" Is it hot? ”
I didn't want to immediately attract a cold glance from Jian Xubai: "You did a good thing!" ”
Song Yi smiled inexplicably, and when he waved his subordinates away, put down the hand that was covering him, and saw the wound on the side of his neck that had become purple, she quickly bit her lip, held back her laughter, and said in a tone that was as gentle and concerned as possible: "God! How did it get like this! Let me see! ”
"Look, what?" Jian Xubai sneered and brushed her away, "Can you just look at it?" Why don't you go get the medicine for the wounds! ”
Song Yixiao knew that he was wrong, and after taking the medicine according to his words, he went to the outside to call someone to get hot water, brought it in person, and wrung a handkerchief to wipe his face - such a courtesy, Jian Xubai was still as cold as iron, and he didn't look at her with his eyes, he went to the inner room to change into a homely robe, and scattered his long hair to cover the injury, before he came out and asked coldly: "What did my mother say over there?" ”
"My mother said she would do it herself." Song Yixiao pushed the single cage of golden crisp saucers with two remaining at him, "Are you hungry?" The meal is going to be over, eat some mats first? ”
Jian Xubai ignored it, and only asked in a cold voice: "But I told my mother that the time is urgent, if the order is not issued within ten days, the righteous sister and father and daughter will still set off for the north?" ”
"Naturally." Song Yi smiled and simply described the whole conversation with her mother-in-law, and then mentioned her father-in-law, "When I went today, my mother hadn't gotten up yet, so I waited outside for a while, and just rushed my father over, and when he saw me, he asked about manpower." ”
"It's just a perfunctory sentence on the scene." Jian Xubai wrote lightly, "If it's in private, you just push it all on me and ask him to ask me!" ”
Song Yi said with a smile: "I told my father that Scholar Pei wanted to be a scholar, take my sister back to Youzhou, and asked us to help sell the property, so I'm afraid I won't be able to spare time to do other things these days." Dad didn't have anything to say after hearing this, so he left - then my mother knew about it, she was very angry, and called my father back in front of me, and the two elders really reasoned, I didn't dare to leave or stay, I was really embarrassed to say! ”
Talking about the theory of the in-laws, this is to save face for the father-in-law.
In fact, at that time, it was purely the eldest princess of the Jin Kingdom who unilaterally reprimanded Jian Likuang - Song Yi laughed so much that he would recall his father-in-law's expression at that time, and he felt shocked.
It's just that she is a daughter-in-law, and she is never qualified to take care of things between her in-laws.
This will mention to Jian Xubai that if Jian Xubai is willing to persuade peace, it can be regarded as a tactful help to his father-in-law.
"My mother has never liked my father to take care of her affairs, and my father doesn't know it, and he still has to intervene, so it's strange that my mother doesn't settle accounts with him!" However, when Jian Xubai heard this, he only said lightly, "The next time you meet them quarreling, just go out to talk to the fifth sister, if your mother wants to find you later, she will naturally send someone to pass you back." Otherwise, you can leave after talking to the fifth sister. ”
He also said, "My mother has never been very restrained about us as juniors, she doesn't make mistakes in the big rules, and she doesn't care about small things." After all, my mother doesn't live with us, and there are many things in the eldest princess's mansion that she needs to worry about, where does she always have the leisure to keep an eye on her daughter-in-law's every move? ”
"Mother-in-law is really busy!" Song Yi smiled and thought of Ji Mingfei today, and couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood again, "My mother-in-law never took the initiative to ask about the Yanguo Mansion, is it to give me face, and can't you be free for co-authorship?" ”
She saw that Jian Xubai had no intention of persuading her parents to make peace at all, and even instigated herself to look on coldly, so naturally she would not continue - no one is in a hurry with her own son, what is her urgency as a daughter-in-law?
So I didn't talk about Jian Likuang anymore, but said: "My mother said that she would try it this afternoon, and when there is news, she will send someone to tell her immediately." ”
Jian Xubai bowed slightly, and was about to summon someone to serve, when he saw her strange expression, his heart moved, and he asked, "Is there anything else?" ”
“…… Without. Song Yixiao wanted to ask him Ji Mingfei, after all, this cousin's actions are shocking, his style is chic and fierce, and he is even more willing to bow down, but he is still a relative, unlike the last time Mr. Qiao was just a musician, she was both curious and puzzled, and naturally wanted to inquire with her husband - but when the words came to her mouth, she thought about whether this was the privacy of the elders, or don't mention it, and immediately swallowed it back.
"What the hell is going on?" It's just that her hesitation fell in Jian Xubai's eyes, it was inevitable that there were no three hundred taels of silver here, Jian Xubai squinted slightly, but he was going to get to the bottom of it, "You go to the mirror by yourself, this is what you have nothing to say?" ”
Song Yi smiled and couldn't prevaricate, so he said cautiously: "I was on my mother's side today, and I saw a person named Ji Mingfei, who said it was ...... Our relatives? ”
As soon as he heard this name, Jian Xubai was also stunned, and then he also showed an expression of wanting to vomit blood, and his face turned pale for a while before he said vaguely: "It's a relative, he is Ji's cousin - I mean Ji Zifu's cousin, his parents died early, and he was personally brought up by the old Fuyang Hou." In order to distinguish him from Cousin Ji, my fifth sister and I both called him Cousin Ji. ”
"Well, I see him acting differently." Song Yixiao tried her best to think of a non-derogatory wording, "I haven't heard you mention it before, so just ask casually - there's nothing else, look at your sweat, do you want to go take a bath now?" ”
Jian Xubai saw her open the topic, and he was also secretly relieved, obviously he also knew the relationship between Ji Mingfei and the eldest princess of the Jin Kingdom, and he couldn't care about being angry with his wife, so he immediately borrowed the slope to get off the donkey: "You go and let them prepare, I'll go to the bath later!" ”
After Song Yixiao went out, he was blown by the autumn wind, and he realized that he was also in a cold sweat, so he wiped a few times with a handkerchief, and then calmed down, and then called someone and ordered him to go down.
When she went back to the house, she always felt that something was wrong.
But looking at Jian Xubai, sitting there with a dignified demeanor and tasting tea, his slender and white knuckles elegantly holding the tea bowl of sweet white glazed ink bamboo bushes. At first glance, when I saw the young man's black hair and snow muscles, his face was like jade, his lips were like blood, and under the black, white and red, he couldn't hide the shocking amazement even if he was full of wealth.
It's just that his expression is cold and reserved, and his face is not shocked.
"Delusion, huh?" So Song Yixiao didn't take it seriously, and told him after sitting down: "I've gone to the kitchen to carry water, and it should be fine in half a moment." ”
Jian Xubai put down the tea bowl and nodded flatly.
After a while, the people below came to tell that the bath room was ready to use, and after Jian Xubai got up and went forward, Song Yixiao ordered someone to come in and clean up the remaining refreshments, and then suddenly came to his senses: "There are two left, and there is one left...... How could this be gone? ”
The maid didn't have the courage to steal the snacks that hadn't been withdrawn yet - besides, the husband and wife just talked about it, and they cleared the scene!
Where these three snacks went, don't ask!
"This man!" Song Yixiao thought about it clearly, couldn't help crying and laughing, shook his head and sighed, "You eat the dim sum I pushed in front of you in front of me, are you so faceless?!" ”
I don't want to think about who asked to "borrow" half of her couch when she didn't get married!
"Shameless for a moment, shameless for a moment, and face for death for a moment!" The more Song Yixiao thought about it, the more he felt that his previous evaluation of him was right, "This is not moody, are there still moody people in this world?" ”
It's so insecure to rely on such a person to live, a way out or something, it's really necessary!
