Chapter 488: Mysterious Mind

Returning from Fu'an Courtyard, Xin Yi asked Taoyu to go to the pharmacy first, telling Lu Shi to wait for a while, and then call a few stewards and the account office to come in and talk.

Her mind is not in the back house, and she firmly believes that "there is no doubt in employing people, but not in doubt", and the account books in the house often take half a month to look at once.

When the stewards received the news, they were a little apprehensive when they came in with the account books, for fear that something would go wrong and provoke the master's mother.

Xin Yi patiently drank a cup of tea and flipped through the account books.

"Are all the expenses of the ninth master paid by Grandpa Sun?"

No one could figure out what she meant.

In the past, the princess of the county never cared about the expenses of the princess, but the princess has not returned to the house in the past few days, so what is she suspicious?

"Yes, princess." The bookkeeper said with a smile: "The ninth master's use has always been that Grandpa Sun takes the right cards to withdraw, and we will enter them one by one." โ€

Xin Yi lowered his head and read the bill again, "Later, Father-in-law Sun will come to withdraw the silver taels, let him come and ask me first, and with my consent, he can make the payment." โ€

Both the stewards and the bookkeeper were a bit surprised.

looked at Xin Yi in a daze, and didn't answer for a long time.

Xin Yi looked up: "Do you have any questions?" โ€

Everyone responded in unison, "There is no princess of the county." โ€

Fu Jiuqu ate and drank well in the courtyard of Yulin Lane, was served, no one was in charge, and his life was quite leisurely.

After a few days, he became more and more satisfied with the courtyard and was ready to transform it into a simplified version of a biology laboratory. The utensils ordered in the early stage arrived one after another, and he asked them all to move here, and asked Sun Huai to find a few craftsmen to prepare to renovate the back room.

Who wouldn't have a career?

In ancient times, would he lose to a small doctor when he was engaged in infrastructure construction? Joke.

As soon as the sky was at dawn, Fu Jiuqu got up to practice martial arts. After about half an hour, he rode out of the city on horseback and ran along the Bianhe River for a while, and the whole person was full of Tai.

He also liked to exercise before, but he didn't have the self-discipline as perverted as King Guangling. Xu shares a body and imperceptibly inherits some habits. got up early to practice martial arts and riding archery, and from resistance to acceptance, he became more and more aware of the unity of man and god, which he found very interesting.

It's not too late to go back to Yulin Lane.

He, Cheng Cang, and Duan Sui rode horses and hooves, and a small sedan chair stopped in the oblique stab, and someone greeted him.

"Virtuous nephew. Go to my house and sit down? โ€

Zhao Yunliang, the king of Huayuan County, is the grandson of Taizong, Zhao Zhen's cousin, and is a child of the clan who has nothing to do.

Fu Jiuqu has never dealt with him, but now he lives next to him, Zhao Yunliang brought his family to visit that day, and he did not embarrass people, he is familiar.

"I wonder what my cousin has to say?"

Zhao Yunliang said with a smile: "I got a pot of wine, would you like to have a drink?" โ€

The relationship between the two people did not reach the point of drinking and arguing, Fu Jiuqu naturally refused.

"I'm going to go out later, and I won't drink the wine, and it doesn't hurt if my cousin says anything directly."

Zhao Yunliang said: "That day, I saw a silk painting of Li Zhaodao on the Ajiu Mansion, I wonder if the virtuous nephew can cut his love?" โ€

Seeing that Fu Jiuqu didn't answer, he arched his hand and said: "Virtuous nephew, don't worry, the price will not lose you, and thank you again." โ€

Fu Jiuqu was not interested in the Song Dynasty's favorite playthings, and he didn't pay attention to Li Zhaodao's paintings at all, but he refused without thinking about it.

"That's what I love, and I'm sorry for my cousin. Leave! โ€

After saying that, he bowed his hand slightly, and drove his horse to go straight back to his other courtyard.

Zhao Yunliang was disappointed.

Although his surname is Zhao, whoever is close to the people in power is the real magnate. Therefore, even if he felt uncomfortable, he could only sigh helplessly.

Sun Huai was talking to his son Sun Lu when he heard the king of the county returning to the house, and ran over to serve.

Fu Jiuqu exercised, sweated slightly, took a hot bath, and sat in the hall to drink tea.

"Did the princess send someone?"

Sun Huai shook his head, looking at him a little erratic.

Fu Jiuqu put down the teacup and snorted, "Look at her." Since she refused to apologize, she should be hung again. โ€

After that, he put this unpleasantness behind him and asked Sun Huai again.

"Have you found the craftsman? Call me for it. โ€

Sun Huai said in a snort: "It's good to find it." It's just, it's just ......"

"Just what?"

"Master, the craftsman said that the Chinese New Year is coming soon, and he must advance some work food before he can find a small worker......"

Fu Jiuqu said impatiently: "This is all a trivial matter, as long as it can be trusted, it is an advance." โ€

Sun Huai glanced at him with a humble heart and said cautiously.

"But, sir, we don't have that much silver."

Fu Jiuqu frowned and looked at him.

Sun Huai gritted his teeth secretly, and decided to tell him, "Today, the little one went back to the house to find the account room to get the money, and the account room said that the princess of the county had confessed, and the lord's cards were not good, and she had to ask her for money......"

"What?" Fu Jiuqu couldn't believe it.

Sun Huai's eyes were aim, "The small thing is to say that the princess of the county is not only not ready to apologize to the lord, but also cut the lord's use." โ€

If you spend a tael of silver, you have to ask your wife for it, and Sun Huai also feels that his ninth master is pitiful.

"The princess's move is really a bit excessive."

"Shut up!" Fu Jiuqu has never suffered from lack of money in his life, no, he has never suffered from lack of money in his two lives, but what he can't stand more than suffering is the sympathy of others.

He glared at Sun Huai.

didn't let him scold, but he scolded in his heart.

The property under his name was given to that woman by the love saint of the king of Guangling County, and he had nothing but himself. And the expenses of the house are all controlled by her, and she didn't think there was anything before, but now it's terrible to think about.

She had to agree, let alone the lab.

This woman could even starve him to death.

Fu Jiuqu kept rubbing his temples.

"How can this be justified, how can this be justified......"

Sun Huai made an idea for his master, "Do you want to go back to His Highness?" No matter how fierce the princess is, she can't control the head of the eldest princess. โ€

Fu Jiuqu was angry and didn't come anywhere.

"A dignified man, looking for money from your mother? Are you going to die? โ€

Sun Huai: ......

"But I don't ask for the eldest princess, I have to ask for the princess of the county." Sun Huai looked down at his toes, his shoulders shrunk and said pitifully, "The glass experimental bottle ordered by the Ninth Master is almost here, and the money has not been paid off, so it is a lot of expenses......

Fu Jiuqu's fingers rubbed on his knees for a moment, "The eldest husband can bend and stretch." โ€

Then he got up and left.

Sun Huai was overjoyed, thinking that the master had finally thought about it and was ready to reconcile with the princess of the county, so he happily followed. Unexpectedly, he saw his master take down a landscape silk painting hanging in the hall and ordered lightly.

"Go, find a box for me to put on."

"Huh?" Sun Huaibai's chubby face wrinkled into a bun, "Yes." โ€

The Pingyuan County Palace, which was less than a hundred meters away, Fu Jiuqu led Sun Huai on foot, and Zhao Yunliang soon came out to greet him.

Seeing Sun Huai holding the painting box in his arms, Zhao Yunliang smiled brightly.

"The virtuous nephew came just in time, thirty years of old spring, just waiting for you to come and taste."

The Northern Song Dynasty was wealthy, and Zhao Yunliang, a son of a clan who led idle errands, had a wealthy family that was comparable to a wealthy gentry. There are several children, a group of wives and concubines, the people in the house are prosperous, and they enjoy tea and paintings every day.

The first time Fu Jiuqu was a guest at the royal family's house, he still came to sell paintings, and his face was not very bright, but as long as he didn't go back to ask for Xinyi, he was willing.

Zhao Yunliang put the banquet in a waterside room with rockery landscaping, and called a few beauties to play the piano and dance, and it was a good enjoyment.

Fu Jiuqu couldn't sit still for a moment.

Fortunately, Lao Chun wine tasted good, he patiently listened to Zhao Yunliang appreciate paintings and poems, and his teeth were so sour that he was about to fall out, and finally drank a pot of Lao Chun, mentioning the matter of silver.

Zhao Yunliang asked: "How much silver does the virtuous nephew think this painting is worth?" โ€

Fu Jiuqu looked at him, raised his eyebrows and smiled.

Zhao Yunliang was slightly stunned, and he was a little embarrassed to look at him, for fear that Fu Jiuqu would think that he was trying to take advantage of him, so he hurriedly bid.

"Look, how about that number?"

Zhao Yunliang stretched out five fingers.

Fu Jiuqu squinted at his fingers, really didn't know how much money he was talking about.

In his previous life, his ancestors had been in business for generations, but he was not here, but he didn't expect that now he would have to bend his waist for a few stinky money.

Zhao Yunliang saw that he didn't say a word, but his face became more and more ugly, and his fingers were silently retracted, and he smiled awkwardly.

"I don't expect my nephew to look down on this money. You are willing to cut this painting painfully, completely for the face of my cousin...... Okay, I'll double that number. What do you think? โ€

Fu Jiuqu didn't want to bargain, and felt that with Zhao Yunliang's preference, it must not be too little, so he simply went back to the high wind and bright festival.

"It's all up to my cousin."

If he didn't have the right mind, he would turn his head and take it back.

Zhao Yunliang lightly high-fived, and the next person brought the silver ticket, Fu Jiuqu looked at the thick stack, and did not raise his eyelids, and motioned for Sun Huai to accept it.

"Then don't bother my cousin Yaxing, I'll go first."

Zhao Yunliang got up with a smile and said mysteriously: "Uncle Cousin also received a good thing, and then asked someone to send it over to thank the virtuous nephew for his grace and beauty, which is a slight expression ......of his heart, and I hope that the virtuous nephew must smile and accept it."

The poor are crazy, and those who come do not refuse.

Fu Jiuqu raised his eyebrows, "It's easy to say." โ€

That Lao Chun drank refreshingly, but he had a lot of stamina, and he was a little upset after eating, so he didn't say hello to Zhao Yunliang again, and went straight back with Sun Huai, and fell asleep.

Half an hour later, Xin Yi drove her little donkey cart and came over with Taoyu and Xingyuan, and as soon as she arrived in the alley outside the gate of "Yiyuan", she saw a mother-in-law who looked like a housekeeper, leading a young woman with a delicate figure to enter through the corner gate.

Only half of the face is exposed, but it is delicate and visible to the naked eye.
