Chapter VII Preparation
readx;
As Nie Xiaofan expected, Xia Yue really secretly arranged for people to keep an eye on the fleet. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info And it is estimated that the messages were received earlier than her.
Nie Xiaofan didn't think about it anymore. Left and right, this is indeed Xia Yue's business. Let him be.
Nie Xiaofan opened the account book and took a cursory look. He left behind 500,000 taels of silver tickets, which shocked Nie Xiaofan. Didn't he keep any silver bills for circulation? Looking at the account books carefully, Jing Yongnian only had some rare treasures left in his hands. Nie Xiaofan knows some things, because people don't know, so he can buy them at a low price and sell them at a high price, does Jing Yongnian want to do this?
Jing Yongnian seems to be uninhibited, but in fact, he is very good at doing business. and has been crawling and rolling on the rivers and lakes for many years. Maybe he can do this kind of thing.
I really don't know how Xia Yue found this baby.
Jing Yongnian appeared for the first time, and he should have come to protect Xia Yue at that time. But Xia Yue didn't know him... In this way, he is not necessarily Xia Yue's person, maybe, this person is loyal to Concubine Min...
The more Nie Xiaofan thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible. Jing Yongnian is obviously not of the same age as these people. Xia Yue's gang wants to subdue him, and he won't be loyal so quickly.
In this way, the concubine Min who favors the sixth palace is not simple...
Nie Xiaofan shook her head violently, she opened her mind again. It is said that Concubine Min can pamper the six palaces, which is naturally not simple.
Xia Yue asked for 200,000 taels when she opened her mouth. And let Nie Xiaofan use the money to make money again.
"Then the only way to do this is to reopen Juxian Building. Nie Xiaofan said calmly.
Xia Yue thought for a long time and didn't speak. Nie Xiaofan took it as his acquiescence.
"I've been researching how Jude House works lately. My aunt is very good at opening a restaurant, and when the time comes, she will account for 50% of the shares. Nie Xiaofan said.
Xia Yue raised his eyebrows, Lian's family accounted for fifty percent of the shares, so what else did he have left? He was just about to speak, but after thinking about it, let Nie Xiaofan toss it. This restaurant may not be able to be opened. When Nie Xiaofan tosses to seven or eight, wouldn't it be better for him to make another move to add icing on the cake?
"You can do it. Xia Yue said. "But you seem to be getting married, don't you?"
"Oh... If you don't say it, I'll almost forget!" Nie Xiaofan said pretending to exaggerate.
In fact, in her opinion, the matter of marriage in ancient times was precisely the most idle. Especially the bride, the average girl won't even ask.
Xia Yue was speechless, feeling sorry for Zhou Jiulang for a second.
"You don't have to put all your mind on this restaurant, maybe I will have other financial resources for you when the time is right. Xia Yue said again.
Of course it's good. Nie Xiaofan said in his heart.
"As long as it's serious. She added.
It suddenly snowed that night, and overnight, the capital became white. The next morning, the sun came out again, and the drowsy sunlight was not warm, but like a lamp in a refrigerator. Nie Xiaofan went to Xifu to find Zhou Qiaoqiao to build a snowman, but she was not there.
At this time, Zhou Qiaoqiao, who was dressed in men's clothes, appeared in a dart game.
This dart game is called Hengyuan Dart Bureau, and it is the one that Xia Yue's people monitored.
"Young master, there are a few more people watching around. The subordinate said.
In the conference hall of the dart game, Zhou Qiaoqiao sat in the first place, looking coldly at the masters of the Crow Gang below.
"Let him go. Zhou Qiaoqiao said. She knew it was Xia Yue's people, and if it wasn't, she wouldn't have been able to find it. "Pay attention to what I have to say. Don't forget. ”
Several masters all looked embarrassed, and this "What you have explained, if the deputy gang leader has a new order," one of them said.
Zhou Qiaoqiao looked at the man casually, and the gloom in his eyes made him dare not say any more.
The so-called deputy gang leader is the person who Master Zhou Qiaoqiao once told him to take care of the Crow Gang. Now that the shelf is getting bigger and bigger, she has infiltrated the forces in the gang for two years, and she has not seen that person's face.
"Do as I tell you, and no one dares to say a word. Zhou Qiaoqiao said this lightly.
It's just that the people below are getting more and more distressed. The two immortals fought, and their little ghosts suffered.
Zhou Qiaoqiao stepped on the snow, rarely walked slowly on the streets of the capital, and returned to Xifu under the glow of the setting sun.
Nie Xiaofan was still waiting for her.
"Where have you been?" Nie Xiaofan said with a smile: "I came to look for you to build a snowman, but you weren't there." She said cheerfully and came over and took her hand: "Let's go, build a snowman while the snow still melts." ”
Zhou Qiaoqiao was stunned. Then a smile appeared on his cold face, and he said, "Build a snowman," but his footsteps didn't move for half a minute.
"There's no sun now, it's too cold. She said.
The cheerful smile on Nie Xiaofan's face gradually cooled, and she immediately scratched the back of her head again, and said, "Oh, it's too cold." Maybe there's another one tonight."
Nie Xiaofan said as he went back to the room, sat cross-legged on the pit, and said with a smile: "Where did you go to play today? Why don't you take me?"
Zhou Qiaoqiao slowly sat down beside her, just like when they were in Changping.
"Didn't go anywhere. She said. The expression is serious.
"I'm going to the dart game. In less than two months, you will get married, and I think that when the time comes, I will go to Liaoguo to see my master. ”
To Liao?
Nie Xiaofan was silent.
Because it's a long way to Liao, you need a dart escort, right?
"It's companionship. Zhou Qiaoqiao said again. "I don't want to go on the road alone. Then he smiled again, but the smile was bitter.
The two were silent again.
Zhou Qiaoqiao had nothing to say, and Nie Xiaofan didn't know what to say.
Do you persuade her to stay?
Lonely and as Qiao Qiao as Zhou Qiaoqiao, maybe it really doesn't fit here. Maybe she went out for a walk and suddenly realized what she wanted?
Nie Xiaofan didn't want to deprive Zhou Qiaoqiao of the right to choose.
"I don't know what the Zhou family is like?" Zhou Qiaoqiao said suddenly.
Nie Xiaofan's heart jumped.
"That's where you'll live your whole life. I'm curious. Zhou Qiaoqiao added.
Is it because I am afraid that she will misunderstand, so I explained?
Zhou Qiaoqiao pursed her lips and looked at Nie Xiaofan with some apprehension.
"That's right. I asked you before and borrowed 50,000 taels of silver. Now that my business is profitable, I want to pay you back with interest," Nie Xiaofan suddenly said arrogantly.
After speaking, he put the 60,000 taels of silver tickets on the kang table very loudly, and looked at Zhou Qiaoqiao expectantly.
Praise me!
Change the subject? Zhou Qiaoqiao smiled.
"Xiao Fan is really amazing. She said, "But the money doesn't have to be returned." Just add makeup to yours. ”
"Then how can it be done," Nie Xiaofan said. With so much silver, she can't take advantage of Zhou Qiaoqiao.
"Take it. My master is a general of the Liao Kingdom, can I still shorten the silver envoy?" Zhou Qiaoqiao said.
"That's not going to work!" Nie Xiaofan's attitude was very resolute.
"Do you have to be polite to me with money?" Zhou Qiaoqiao said.
The atmosphere was very cold for a while.
"After I'm gone, maybe we'll never see each other again. Zhou Qiaoqiao said a little sadly.
Yes, after she leaves, if she doesn't come back, she really won't be able to see her. If they return, they will be on opposite sides and may never see each other again.
"I hope we're all okay. ”
――――――――――
Nie's mansion began to put up lights, on the one hand, to prepare for the New Year, and on the other hand, to prepare for Nie Xiaofan's marriage.
"Girl, try this dress. Liu Yu and Fennel unfolded a big red wedding dress and said to Nie Xiaofan, who was sitting by the window watching the bamboo leaves.
She turned her head in a daze, and saw the overwhelming red. The red was so dazzling, Nie Xiaofan smiled when he looked at it.
"It's so beautiful. ”
It's so red and vibrant, as if it can suck in all the troubles of the world, it's really beautiful.
"Then try it!" urged Lyric Fennel.
"Not trying. It's all made to my size. It won't be inappropriate. Nie Xiaofan said.
"Girl," Liu Yu said coquettishly.
Nie Xiaofan is really lazy. Regardless of Liu Yu's coquettishness, her chin rested on the window in a daze.
"What a strange girl!" Liu Yu said. "Other girls are happy to get married, but they are too lazy to become worms when they come to you. ”
Liu Yu was packing her things. While shaking his head and complaining.
Nie Xiaofan pretended not to hear.
She knows that marriage is a good thing, but the problem is that it is not her to get married now. What did she expect?
Zhou Jiulang didn't hate her, she was already happy. She was just thinking about Zhou Qiaoqiao, and she didn't know what to do.
In fact, Nie Xiaofan is really not a smart person, she encounters a problem that she can't handle well, and she can't come up with an answer after really thinking about it.
It's like now. Zhou Qiaoqiao's matter, she has been in a daze for several days.
She said that she wanted to go and see, she was leaving the capital, and she wanted to see where her sister would live in the future, which was reasonable and reasonable. But the problem is
Nie Xiaofan sighed again.
"What's the matter, the bride sighed?"
Nie Xiaofan turned around and saw that it was Nie Xiao'e, who was as quiet as water, and followed by Liu Er with red clothes in both hands.
"I personally made you a set of close-fitting clothes. Nie Xiao'e said. As she spoke, she unfolded a red mid-coat. The fabric is made of soft cloud silk.
"The stitches are so fine, you really have a heart. Nie Xiaofan said with a smile.
Nie Xiao'e said: "This bride's dress, although it costs a lot of money, but what, they will do the phoenix crown with their hearts, but they will not pay attention to the quality of the middle clothes, because no one sees the middle clothes, so I will help you do it, there is only one day to get married, and you have to wear the best everything, you say yes." ”
"The second sister has a point. Nie Xiaofan said: "I like it very much." Liu Yu, go and put it away. It was made by the second sister herself. ”
After Nie Xiaofan finished speaking, he turned to Nie Xiao'e and said, "I don't know how to make clothes." Why don't you send a few horses to my sister as a gift in return?"
"Yo, I don't dare to bear it. If you want to do this, you won't have to pay for your death?"
"I'm going to send it. Nie Xiaofan said, and personally served tea to Nie Xiao'e: "Sister's heart is rare, and craftsmanship is also rare." I don't lose!"
――――――――――――
Zhou Jiulang was detained by his grandmother in the study to review his homework, and the closer the wedding date, the more anxious he became. But when he thought of his grandmother's words, he didn't dare to waste any time. The grandmother said, "Your daughter-in-law will be brought to the house in two months." It's useless for you to be in a hurry, if you become a jinshi after she enters the door, then her reputation as a prosperous man will not be able to run. But if you don't win, then your daughter-in-law will have to be tired of your reputation as Kefu, and you have to weigh it yourself!"
Zhou Jiulang shuddered when he thought of his grandmother's words.
Grandmother is too ruthless, not only using his future to force him to work hard, but also using Xiaofan's future to force him to work hard. Zhou Jiulang didn't dare to relax at all.
So I studied hard every night, and Mr. invited two of them, one during the day and one at night, both of whom were really knowledgeable people, and they couldn't teach dead books, so Zhou Jiulang didn't feel bored.
He is working hard for the future of the young couple, and every night when he falls asleep tiredly, he is fulfilled.
The little couple thought about it, and the corners of their mouths and eyebrows were smiling.
When she turns around, people should call her the Ninth Young Lady.
Even the two gentlemen all guaranteed the prime minister: "Ling Lang works hard in the academic class, and he is also smart, so here in Chunfu, there is no need to worry too much." ”
Zhou Youxiang said: "Rao is like this, and he can't be taught to relax." This kid works so hard, and this heart is what teaches me to appreciate. Whatever you do in the future, you won't be bad at it. ”
"Yes, yes, yes," Mr. said. "It's all taught well by the prime minister, although the ninth prince is not your child, but in all aspects, he has your demeanor"
Zhou Youxiang waved his hand to stop him from continuing to slap his ass.
Zhou Jiulang has his demeanor so much that he doesn't necessarily have it. It's kind of like his father. When he was young, he was disobedient, ran away for a while, and when he came back, he became sensible and motivated.
This is the father and son in the end. They're like.
The difference is that Zhou Jiulang's father was away from home for three years before returning. And he doesn't have such a good life as his son.
Zhou Youxiang could only shake his head when he thought of the third brother. But Jiurou can be cultivated well.
Among the grandsons of the Zhou family's generation, Zhou Youxiang had three sons, and the two eldest sons were not thinking about the imperial examination, and they were bent on going to the frontier to serve the country. The youngest son is still young
Needless to say, the old man's child on Tuesday is the only son of the third brother, and the more Zhou Youxiang looks at it, the more satisfied he becomes. Get ready for a good nurturing.
Besides, Zhou Jiulang suddenly received an invitation from Xia Yue on this day.
Xia Yue asked him to drink when he was depressed, and he has refused many times recently. This time, Xia Yue actually came up with a new trick.
In the note sent by the little maid, it was written: "In Qingfeng Garden, someone is looking for you." ”
Zhou Jiulang seriously suspected that this was Xia Yueyu's trick for him to go out, so he crumpled the note and threw it away without hesitation.
But after thinking about it, I felt that maybe it might be Nie Xiaofan looking for him?
Why don't you check it out?
Zhou Jiulang threw the book down. He changed his clothes and went out of the house like a wild horse. Rode his horse and galloped out.
The little guy couldn't stop shouting in the back.
"Let him go, he hasn't rested for more than a month, how can he stand it?" Mrs. Zhou disagreed.
Although she wants Zhou Jiulang to work hard, she can't be trapped at home every day like a log.
The prisoners still have to let the wind go.
