Chapter 190: The Eve

It costs money to start a business.

Why do many wealthy businessmen need to be whitewashed? Because the money or means of starting out are not clean.

As large as a country, Westerners started their business, mainly plundering foreign countries, one is to plunder manpower through slave trade, and the other is to plunder resources through slaughter.

Qi Niang now has a big family, where does the money come from? Anyway, it wasn't given by the earth master.

Qi Xuansu guessed correctly, Qi Niang's starting capital was indeed obtained from Yao Zu's Palace. Although "Buddha relics" and "luxury are better than corpse poison", this kind of thing is difficult to sell, and ordinary people dare not ask for it.

Of course, Qi Niang will not admit it, strictly speaking, there is half of Qi Xuansu in it, and she doesn't plan to give it to Qi Xuansu. Stinginess and love of money are only part of the reason, and the oath she made made Qi Xuansu penniless for the rest of his life.

Qi Xuansu put away the two pieces of ink: "By the way, Qi Niang, on the day of the ceremony, will you go?"

Qi Niang thought for a while, "I don't need to go, it's enough to have Su Cihang."

Qi Xuansu persuaded: "Let's go, there are a lot of old acquaintances, it's good to reminisce about the past."

Qi Niang gave a rather nonsense reason: "I'm afraid of life."

Qi Xuansu didn't speak for a long time.

Xiao Yin is a child who is not afraid of birth, and Qi Niang is an old lady who is afraid of life, right?

Someone has to believe it.

Qi Xuansu no longer insisted: "Since you don't want to go, then forget it."

"That's it." Qi Niang walked out.

Early the next morning, Qi Xuansu went to greet many guests, of course the flying boat was not so slow, but it turned around halfway to pick up people, so it was delayed a lot.

With so many acquaintances, Qi Xuansu's face stiffened with a smile, and finally he saw Zhang Yuelu's family.

The first thing Qi Xuansu saw was not Zhang Yuelu, nor Xiao Yin, but Taiqiong.

No way.

As the saying goes, the road is narrow. Buddhism says, resentment will.

Qi Xuansu and this mother-in-law just don't like each other, and they don't like each other.

Because the Taoist sect talks about equality, the female Taoist priests of the Taoist sect are somewhat overkill, the upper part must control the in-laws, the middle must control the children, and the lower must control the Taoist couple, and the cats and dogs at home cannot be half disobedient.

If anyone is not controlled, the female Taoist priest will be uncomfortable. The female Taoist priest is uncomfortable, and the whole family must be uncomfortable.

Male Taoists, most of the male Taoists were disciplined enough, and the female Taoists said to go east, not to the west.

This kind of discipline begins at an early age.

However, Qi Xuansu did not receive this kind of discipline, at least not when he was a child, because in the Vientiane Dao Palace, the main thing is to cultivate family and country feelings, be loyal to the Daomen, and believe in Daozu and Xuansheng. When he grew up, although he met Qi Niang, Qi Xuansu was no longer small at that time, and it was difficult to change.

All in all, Qi Xuansu looked down on the controlling desire of a female Taoist like Taiqiong.

To put it mildly, Qi Xuansu eats soft and not hard, every time Qi Niang takes Qi Xuansu, she never speaks harshly, but wipes her tears, supplemented by the offensive of material and money, which is generally invincible.

Zhang Yuelu never wanted to control Qi Xuansu, she just wanted to change Qi Xuansu, even if it was, it was not a hard change on the head, but a subtle and subtle moisturizing matter.

Zhang Yuelu's major feature of doing things is that he occupies the word "reason", and there is no unreasonable trouble.

Qi Xuansu is not a saint without flaws, but a person who is intertwined with black and white, and naturally he will be afraid of Zhang Yuelu at some point.

The main contradiction between Taiqiong and her daughter Zhang Yuelu comes from the fact that Taiqiong can't control her daughter, and even this contradiction continues to Qi Xuansu.

Qi Xuansu was not used to her, so the two clashed repeatedly.

What to do the work of the mother-in-law in place, Qi Xuansu doesn't believe that, he can do Zhang Yuelu's work in place.

After all, Zhang Yuelu didn't do Qi Niang's job properly. Your mother is a mother, but my mother is not a mother? Coax this, coax that, or coax Xiao Yin.

However, Qi Xuansu will not be on the bright side

left a handle, or took the initiative to salute his father-in-law and mother-in-law.

Then Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu made eye contact, which is also the most common way for the two to deal with each other, everything is self-evident.

In the end, Qi Xuansu picked up Xiao Yin, who took the initiative to pounce, usually Qi Xuansu would not do this, except today, he wanted to help Qi Niang probe the tone: "Xiao Yin, Qi Niang wants you to go to her for a few days, are you willing?"

"Yes!" Xiao Yin did not hesitate or hesitate at all, and was overjoyed. However, after coming into contact with Zhang Yuelu's eyes, he temporarily changed his words without the slightest hesitation, "Yes?"

Qi Xuansu said, "What do you mean by 'willing, right?' What about you? Say whatever you want."

Xiao Yin peeked at Zhang Yuelu: "Go to Qi Niang, of course...... Still not good?"

Zhang Yuelu suddenly remembered the scene when he came back from Vientiane Dao Palace, and couldn't help but sigh softly: "You can go if you want, it always depends on what I do?" I still have a lot of thoughts."

Qi Xuansu said: "I have a lot of thoughts, I was also forced out by you, who doesn't know your style of acting, the people of the West Daomen have heard of your domineering across thousands of miles of oceans, and I was also trembling when I was under your hands."

Zhang Yuelu glanced at Qi Xuansu: "Trembling? I don't see the slightest bit of it. You two are used to pretending, when did you listen to me? I'm going to pretend to be like this."

Qi Xuansu coughed lightly and looked around. Xiao Yin, who was held by Qi Xuansu, looked up at the sky.

Xiao Yin really wanted to be afraid of Zhang Yuelu, so he wouldn't sneak out to mix the rivers and lakes by himself.

This little girl has learned badly, as for who did she learn from?

Naturally, it's Qi Xuansu.

Zhang Yuelu knew this, and she didn't really want Xiao Yin to listen to her in everything, but just demarcated a range for her, and there are no rules.

Taiqiong watched the conversation between the two coldly, she had no opinion on Xiao Yin, there were gains and losses, Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu were in high positions at a young age, and they couldn't do without cultivation, it was almost inevitable to have no children, and it was inevitable to adopt a righteous daughter.

She just couldn't get used to her daughter's methods, and she couldn't handle Qi Xuansu.

Although Qi Xuansu's position is higher than that of Zhang Yuelu, it is well known that there is an inequality between some male and female Taoists, such as a female Taoist priest's height of five feet is equal to the height of a male Taoist priest of six feet, and a female Taoist's monthly 300 Taiping Yuan is equivalent to a male Taoist 1,000 Taiping Yuan per month. And all that.

Therefore, the creation stage of a female Taoist priest is equivalent to the pseudo-immortal stage of a male Taoist priest, and the chief deputy hall master of a female Taoist priest is equivalent to the chief deputy hall master of a male Taoist priest.

So equal.

Fortunately, Zhang Yuelu never believed in this set of vulgar rhetoric, even if Qi Xuansu was only a seventh-grade Taoist priest, she didn't grasp Qi Xuansu's thoughts, she still thought about how to change Qi Xuansu's concept.

Now Qi Xuansu's position is higher than hers, she still adheres to her original intention, she listens to Qi Xuansu when she should listen to Qi Xuansu, and she will not be polite at all when she should be polite.

It's equality.

Lan Dazhen, Yao Shu and others all have their own places to live, and they don't have to worry about Qi Xuansu, but when their father-in-law and mother-in-law come, they naturally can't live in other places, and Qi Xuansu's new home is not a decoration - there is no need to mention any new house, this house is older than the third master, and it is not as poor as that. Besides, the guests will not stay in the middle road main courtyard of Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu.

On the way to Taishangfang, Qi Xuansu said, "I have already asked people to clean up the guest room, and my uncle and aunt will live on my side. Qingxiao's previous residence was a little smaller, and the Daomin was also sent by Qingxiao to help me, and there was a shortage of manpower."

Taiqiong has long known that Qi Xuansu has bought a big house, but she rarely comes to Yujing, and she has never seen it with her own eyes, the furniture is in charge of the Zhang family, and the two of them are embarrassed to take the initiative to ask, they can't chase their son-in-law to ask about the house and the bride price like the small family has never seen the world, so they only know that there is such a thing, the Zhang family is very satisfied, it should be good.

At this time, Taiqiong finally couldn't hold back her curiosity and asked, "Tianyuan, how big is this princess's mansion?"

Qi Xuansu said: "It is the specifications of the Imperial Palace, it should be the largest in Taishangfang, and the others are about the same, and there is no bigger one."

Zhang Yuqi was taken aback. Yujing is not as good as Dijing, Dijing can be expanded, Yujing is on Yuxu Peak, but it can't be expanded, here is a real inch of land, and it is possible to buy a mansion the size of a palace in Yujing, which means that the palace of Dijing is far from being comparable.

Not to mention, Yujing Twenty-four Fang, Taishang Fang is a well-deserved first Fang.

Zhang Yuqi couldn't help but say, "It cost a lot of money, right?"

Qi Xuansu replied truthfully: "When I bought it, it cost 1.45 million Taiping money, and later it was renovated and it cost more than 100,000 Taiping money, I have no money, the big head is from Qi Niang, and the small head is from Qingxiao."

Tan Taiqiong stopped talking.

Don't care how Qi Niang and Qi Xuansu settle accounts, in the eyes of outsiders, Qi Niang's money is Qi Xuansu's money, not now, sooner or later.

Soon, the group arrived at Qi Xuansu's new home.

"It's magnificent." Zhang Yuqi stepped out of the carriage and couldn't help but admire.

After the renovation, the whole mansion has been renovated, although Zhang Kuqi and his wife have also seen the world, but they are still a little shocked. In the end, it was the mansion that made the two real people who were involved in the fight for it be extraordinary.

But then again, no one used this house as Qi Xuansu's article, probably because he was afraid of setting himself on fire, after all, where the fire would burn was usually not something that the person who lit the fire could control. The one who lives in a big house is not just a Qi Xuansu, nor is it more private like the affairs of men and women, they are all concentrated in Taishangfang, and it is easy to offend the entire Taishangfang by making a fuss about this kind of thing.

Qi Xuansu led the group into the new home, Xiao Yin cheered and ran to the back garden - she planned to stay there tonight and look up at the stars.

Zhang Yuelu led her parents to the guest room to settle down.

Tantai Qiong looked around, and couldn't help but praise a few times, she likes it very much, but she doesn't want to live for a long time, at this point, Tantai Qiong and Qi Niang are the same, who wants to live under the same roof with the two of you? Let me see your faces? Dream on.

Losers don't lose.

Qi Xuansu did not accompany him, but greeted Chen Jianqiu, who was waiting here, and went to the study together.

He had to ask Chen Jianqiu to draft his speech in the Vientiane Dao Palace, and he himself had to make some preparations for tomorrow's apprenticeship ceremony.
