Chapter 618: Opportunity
"What!" Xing'er suddenly exclaimed, and the peach branch in her hand also fell to the ground. Visit download txt //
"Don't panic, you sit down first."
Li Xin hurriedly asked Xiaobi to help Xing'er sit down, but when she turned her head, she saw that Xiaobi was also frightened, so she couldn't help sighing and said, "I was also surprised when I heard about it, the fourth brother and sister didn't agree all the time, why did they suddenly agree again...... Hey, since the four siblings agreed, this matter is naturally like this...... But Ah Wendu didn't know yet, and the fourth brother said let me tell him......"
Li Xin was also annoyed, patted Xing'er's hand and said, "The two of them have the intention to hide it from us, and there is no way to do it." ”
"No, no...... "Xing'er shook her head quickly, "It shouldn't be like this!" ”
Even if Guan Quan and Hu Yueying reconciled, it couldn't be because of her relationship with Xiaobi...... How can this be clarified in the future? No matter how much she Luo Xing'er is, she can't be slandered like this!
"Sister-in-law, it's not like this, it shouldn't be like this!" Xing'er eagerly tugged on Li Xin's sleeve: "It's okay for her to reconcile, but it can't be because of this!" I didn't force her, even if she divorced, I wouldn't gloat! ”
"Okay, okay, I know......" Li Xin was really excited when she saw Xing'er, although she didn't know why, but she still hurriedly persuaded: "She agreed by herself, and she can't get along with you......"
"Poof!"
Li Xin was talking, but saw Xiaobi suddenly fall to the ground, her face was pale, and beads of sweat were oozing from her forehead, looking like she was too frightened.
Li Xin hurriedly reached out to pull Xiaobi again, and he suddenly felt panicked: "What's wrong with you two!" Xiao Geng'er woke up after a while, you guys are like this, do you want me to pick him up? ”
Li Xin's stomach was already up, and Xiao Geng'er was just when she was active, and her weight was not light, she would never dare to hug Xiao Geng'er.
Xing'er seemed to come back to her senses at this time, and hurriedly followed Li Xin to pull Xiaobi aside and sat down, took a few breaths and said, "Sister-in-law, you look at Xiaobi first, I'll go to see if Xiao Geng'er is awake." ”
Xing'er hurriedly went upstairs, and Li Xin looked at Xiaobi and said, "Why are you scared like this......"
Xiaobi cried out with a "wow", and tears flowed down her eyes as if the floodgates had been opened: "It has nothing to do with me, it really has nothing to do with me, I have nothing to do with Fourth Brother Guan, Fourth Sister-in-law Guan misunderstood, misunderstood!" ”
Li Xin heard it inexplicably, but he also caught something from it, and when he saw Xiaobi crying miserably, he paused and said, "You say...... Your fourth sister-in-law misunderstood that you have a greasy relationship with your fourth brother? ”
Xiaobi nodded vigorously: "Sister Xin, I told Guan Si's sister-in-law, I have nothing to do with Guan Si Ge, it doesn't matter!" But she didn't believe it, saying that we were dogs and men......"
Only then did Li Xin connect what Hu Yueying said before with what she did.
No wonder Hu Yueying has never been waiting to see Xiaobi, no wonder Hu Yueying wants to tell her and let her pay attention to the people around her...... It turns out that there is this meaning in it.
But Hu Yueying is too extreme, so she decided that Guan Quan had an affair with Xiaobi? And what does this have to do with apricots?
Thinking like this, I asked like this. Xiaobi sobbed and said: "Fourth sister-in-law Guan said that she and Fourth Brother Guan were reconciled, the first one who was happy was me, and the second was Second Sister-in-law Guan." Guan Si's sister-in-law was also there when Guan Si's sister-in-law scolded me that day, and she helped me say a few words, Guan Si's sister-in-law confronted her, and Guan Er's sister-in-law was also angry......"
Xiaobi stopped, took a breath, and then grabbed Li Xin's sleeve and said, "Sister Xin, you can't let Guan Si's sister-in-law just leave Guan Si Ge like this!" She misunderstood so deeply, how can I see people in the future! ”
If Hu Yueying said it outside, it was because of Xiaobi and Guan Quan's "adultery" that she had to reconcile with Guan Quan, then Xiaobi's reputation would be completely ruined.
Not only Xiaobi, but also her Li Xin.
The news that Xiaobi stayed in the Guan family to be Li Xin's maid, Li Xin deliberately blocked it. Sun Magpie was confined at home by Sun Pei at this time, and he and Diao Lao Demon became an official couple, so there was no conflict with Li Xin for the time being. But if this matter spreads, Xiaobi's existence will not be hidden, if Sun Magpie knows, will he make a fuss about this matter from Zhongxing, this is one of the questions.
The second problem is even more in front of us.
The sister-in-law's maid hooked up with the younger brother-in-law and squeezed away the original chaff of the younger brother-in-law...... It's a matter of where this kind of thing is placed! Others don't know how to say that she is a sister-in-law, it is good to say that she is not strict in teaching, if she has bad intentions, then she can't find a place to reason!
Li Xin looked at Xiaobi who was crying bitterly on her lap, and she really didn't know whether to comfort her or scold her.
If Xiaobi can hide a little bit, Hu Yueying is afraid that she won't misunderstand, right?
At the same time, Li Xin also felt extremely helpless about Hu Yueying's casual speculation and self-righteous character.
But what can be done? Hu Yueying thought so, even if others told her that it wasn't like this, she wouldn't believe it!
Li Xin shook his fist fiercely, and thought even more - I am afraid that Guan Quan didn't understand why Hu Yueying suddenly agreed and left.
"You tell me in detail, the last time I saw your fourth sister-in-law, what did you say, especially her, what did she say."
Li Xin looked at Xiaobi and asked, Xiaobi blew her nose, sobbed and told in detail a series of things that happened after Hu Yueying stepped forward to beat Aunt Cui and her that day.
Li Xin frowned: "She was angry and said that she wanted to fulfill such a thing?" also said that without the fourth brother, she didn't believe that she couldn't live? ”
Xiaobi nodded: "That's right." ”
Li Xin touched her forehead, sighed and said, "Don't cry, go wash your face." ”
Xiaobi nodded with a hiccup, got up to fetch water and wash her face.
Xing'er hugged Xiao Geng'er and sat down beside Li Xin.
"I vaguely heard it upstairs, Xiaobi told you, right?" Xing'er looked sideways at Li Xin, smiled bitterly, and said, "I think I'm such a person in her eyes, which makes me quite ashamed, so I didn't mention this to you." Xiaobi also felt that this matter hindered her reputation, and she didn't want to mention it, so she didn't tell you. Don't blame her. If you want to blame me, blame me. I'm older than her, and I've experienced more things than her, but I didn't think it through and made it vague. ”
Li Xin sighed, took Xiao Geng'er's little hand and teased it, and said, "It's not your fault, she looks at you like this, what else do you have to say." ”
Xing'er hung her head: "What should I do about this......
"The dust has settled, the wood has been completed, the fourth brother has already reconciled, what else can I do......" Li Xin exhaled a breath of turbidity: "What I'm worried about now is how to tell Awen, and I'm worried about what kind of rumors everyone will spread in the future." To put it mildly, the Guan family is a target now, everyone sees that our family is doing well, and they are all waiting to find out about our mistakes. ”
Xing'er nodded: "I know." Just like the pig I raised with Awu, one of the pigs was sick, and I asked Uncle Lu to help me take a look, and someone knew about it, so they said that the pig we raised had swine fever...... If Uncle Lu hadn't stood up and said that it was just a little cold, I am afraid that this rumor would have spread throughout the village immediately, and then those who saw that our life was prosperous would have shouted for the pig to be killed and burned, so that the hard work of me and Ah Wu for more than half a year would be gone......"
Xing'er sighed: "I'm nothing, she said that I didn't like her when she was a big deal, and I wished she was taken out of the Guan family instead of Heli, I could have not heard it." Ke Xiaobi ...... She's still a girl's family. If it's the fourth brother and sister...... Hu Yueying couldn't get angry, and said that Xiaobi hooked up with the fourth brother, what can she do with her reputation? She will talk about other people's in the future, with this reputation outside, it will be difficult for her to find a good family. ”
Li Xin also knows this truth, but Hu Yueying hasn't said anything bad now, and it's impossible for her to come to the door to warn her and ask her not to spread rumors or anything, right?
Isn't she the first wicked person to sue first?
"Perhaps...... She won't say anything. Li Xin said softly: "The fourth brother said that the two of them are also easy to talk about, and she didn't make a fuss." ”
Apricot sighed: "I hope so." After a pause, Xing'er asked, "Then if these words really come out of her mouth, how are we going to deal with it?" ”
“…… There is only one step at a time. Li Xin said.
Guan Wen came back in the evening, and he was in a very good mood, probably because he had received some big business in the shop. Guan Wen had already sent two familiar people in the shop to collect the leather goods with the ship, and Guan Wen, a craftsman who made nitrate leather, also found two or three. The people who went out this time went to collect the hides and skins that the hunters had beaten down, and brought them back to make their own nitrate, and the profits in the middle were even more considerable.
Guan Wen washed his face and said to Li Xin with a smile: "Didn't we say that we would open another shop to do other business some time ago?" I thought about it again and again, and felt that I could collect the specialties of our Hui County and sell them to those merchants in Hui County. ”
Li Xin blinked, Guan Wen smiled and asked her, "We have three treasures in Hui County, you know, right?" ”
"Old wine, Lilin, strange stones." Li Xin said casually: "You accept special products...... Is it selling alcohol? Selling lychees? Or sell stones? ”
Li Xin frowned: "The old winery won't let people interfere, the lychees are in season, and they will be gone after that time." As for the stones...... You're not too lazy to move? ”
Guan Wen said with a smile: "That's not going to happen, but it's useless for me to collect the stones, lychees are in season, at most, they are easy to sell during that period of time, and I can't see the shadow of lychees at other times." ”
Li Xin immediately frowned: "Then you are referring to wine." ”
Guan Wen nodded: "Wine can be stored, as long as it is stored properly, the longer the wine, the more mellow the taste." And I heard a piece of news. Guan Wen whispered to Li Xin: "Didn't there be some places that owed the harvest last autumn or something?" In the spring and summer of this year, the grain stocks in various places were reduced, and the price of grain began to rise, so that the price of raw materials needed for sake brewing was higher than usual, so naturally, the price of wine was higher than usual. ”
“…… So, do you want to stock up on liquor to sell? Li Xin was surprised, he didn't expect Guan Wen to have such a vision: "However, in our realm, there are a lot of wine sellers!" ”
Li Xin smiled in a low voice: "Didn't we let you build a granary?" My plan is to go to various places to buy grain first, fill the granary, and keep it for later. At least before the harvest this fall, the granary will be filled with grain. ”
"And then?" Li Xin asked.
"Stockpiling grain, selling grain." Guan Wendao: "After a while, the news of Jingshi will come over, the taste and craftsmanship of our children's wine here are excellent, presumably there will be no fewer people who plan to make a fortune during this special period, and they all want to buy wine and then sell it in other places." The winery's business will be very good then, but this is not the time for grain production, and food ...... is needed."
Li Xin's eyes widened suddenly: "Are you trying to buy and sell?" "If this is done well, it will be a huge profit!" But when the time comes, I will take the opportunity to raise the price of grain, and if it attracts the attention of the yamen, what will I do......"
Guan Wen suddenly smiled and said: "When the time comes, we will earn the money of those merchants, not the common people, the money comes from the merchants, and the yamen can't control it." Of course, it is inevitable that they will have to give up some of them to the yamen, and they will take the benefits, so that it will be convenient for them to do things. ”
Li Xin nodded, she still knew about these people's sophistication, but she was still a little worried: "Is this okay?" "If Guan Wen really does this kind of business, he will be a veritable nouveau riche.
Guan Wen said with a smile: "No problem, the shop will sell wine when it opens, and it will only say that we have opened a brewing workshop." Other breweries can't receive food, seeing that our family brews grain wine and there is no shortage of food, we will inevitably come to inquire, and when the time comes, we will look at the same industry, give up some hoarded grain for them, and we will raise the price appropriately, and give it to them. ”
Guan Wen wants to earn fame and make money.
Li Xin stretched out his hand and snorted Guan Wen's head, and praised: "You think really long-term, and you have a vision." If you seize the opportunity this time, our family may become rich overnight. ”
Guan Wen narrowed his eyes: "The source will not be wrong, just see that I will run it when the time comes." ”
As he spoke, he leaned down, put his ear to Li Xin's stomach and smiled: "Baby, dad earns a lot of money for the family." ”
Li Xin rubbed Guan Wen's hair, and when she thought of what she wanted to say to Guan Wen, she suddenly hesitated.
He was so happy now, if he told him about everything......
Guan Wen chatted with his unborn child with great interest for a while, before he raised his head with a smile, looked at Li Xin and said, "It's not too early, let's wash and rest." ”
"Ah Wen......" Li Xin called him, and when he saw Guan Wen looking at her, he suddenly didn't know what he was going to say.
"What's wrong?" Guan Wen asked with concern, "Is there anything uncomfortable?" ”
Li Xin shook his head and exhaled: "I have something to tell you...... The fourth brother is back today, let me tell you ......"
Guan Wen frowned, presumably wondering in his heart, what Guan Quan couldn't say in front of him, but asked Li Xin to convey it.
The fourth brother said that he and the fourth brother and sister had ...... and left, and the formalities were all completed. Li Xin's voice was soft: "The fourth brother and sister didn't make any more trouble, this matter ...... It was promised by her. ”
