Chapter 43: So ruthless

Qin Xi looked at Lin Ruyu with a puzzled expression: "Silver? What silver? ”

Lin Ruyu: "Isn't my cousin going to give porridge?" I'll take the money to buy food and help my cousin with porridge. ”

Qin Xi looked surprised: "My cousin helped me with porridge, didn't my cousin give me money?" ”

Lin Ruyu was dumbfounded: "I'll help you give you porridge, of course it's you who give the money!" Shall I give you the money and the money? ”

Qin Xi looked surprised: "Can't you?" I've helped my cousin with a lot of money, right? You can't go out once? ”

Lin Ruyu: "......"

"It's not no, my cousin also knows that my father Fenglu is not much, how can I have 300,000 taels? If I had, I would have helped my cousin out! Lin Ruyu said sincerely.

Qin Xi's expression faded, and he said lightly: "Oh, if I want to pay the money myself, then my cousin shouldn't say that I will help me with the porridge, after all, I have maids, maids, and stewards by my side, is there still a lack of someone to help me with the porridge?" Forget it, you don't need your cousin's help this time for soup kitchen! ”

Lin Ruyu was dumbfounded: "What do you mean by not having my help?" ”

"It just means that I don't need my cousin to help me with the porridge."

Lin Ruyu was anxious when she heard this!

You don't have to help her with the soup yourself!?

If she doesn't help her with soup kitchen, what will happen to her dowry?

And she promised Brother Huan and her father to give them 100,000 taels!

She doesn't help her with soup kitchens!

Where did she go to find 200,000 taels for them!

"Cousin, how can you go back on your word!" Lin Ruyu said angrily.

"What kind of backsliding is this? You're the one who backtracks! Now I don't need your help, and you have nothing to lose! What are you angry about? Jade peach send-off. After Qin Xi finished speaking, he turned around angrily and went back to the study to continue drawing the design of the restaurant.

"Cousin, please!" Yu Tao made a gesture of please.

Lin Ruyu panicked, she hurriedly chased after her: "No, cousin, I have already released the rumor, you will take out 300,000 taels to give porridge, if you don't give it now, it will affect your reputation!" ”

Qin Xi didn't pay any attention to her.

Yu Tao stopped her: "Cousin, please!" ”

Pomegranate stood in front of her and blocked her.

was stopped, and Lin Ruyu refused to leave: "No, cousin, really!" Your reputation will be ruined! You can't be famous for 300,000 taels! In this case, if you marry into the Jin Palace, you will dislike the Princess of Jin! You'll ......."

Lin Ruyu shouted unwillingly, trying to convince Qin Xi.

But no one responded to her!

Yutao glanced at the pomegranate, and the pomegranate directly carried her on her shoulder and walked out!

Lin Ruyu still shouted: "Cousin, you don't care about reputation, but aren't you worried that you will make King Junjun a laughing stock in the capital?" Cousin ......"

Lin Ruyu was carried out of the mansion by the pomegranate and thrown into the carriage of Changchun Bofu with a shout.

Her tall and mighty body stood in front of the carriage, staring at Lin Ruyu with a fierce face: "What are you arguing about?" My girl has helped you with so much silver, can't you help my girl once? Can you be a good person? ”

After speaking, she turned around and went straight back to the house, and closed the door with a "bang"!

Lin Ruyu was almost shocked by the sound of the door closing with this "bang"!

No!

Her 300,000 taels!

At this time, the little maid in Changchun Bofu ran over: "Miss, the third master is here, the master is also looking for you, you should go back to the house quickly!" ”

Finished!

200,000 taels are here!

Lin Ruyu's eyes darkened, and she fainted directly!

~

In the evening, Qin Xia gathered 200,000 taels of silver and handed them over to Changchun Bo and Xiao Huanhuan.

Lin Ruyu's eyes were red from crying: "Mother, did you give all the money to Brother Huan?" ”

Qin Xia gritted her teeth and said, "Give it!" What a Qin Xi, this time we were definitely put on a show by her! ”

200,000 taels, she not only took out all her savings over the years, but also sold a lot of jewelry, and even went back to her parents' house to borrow 50,000 taels from her mother, only to make up 200,000 taels!

Qin Xi, this dead girl is so ruthless!

200,000 taels!

This is almost the time to spit out all the money that the two mothers and daughters have fished from her over the years!

Lin Ruyu was relieved when she heard that she gave the silver to Xiao Huanhuan, but she couldn't help but say, "Mother, then my dowry ......"

If there is no good dowry to marry into the Jin Palace, how can she hold her head up and be a man!

Qin Xia closed her eyes: "What dowry do you want?" My mother also sold a lot of jewelry this time to make up enough for 200,000 taels! But don't worry, your dowry is not much, and Qin Xi's don't think too much! ”

Qin Xi dared to cause her to go bankrupt, don't blame her for being polite!

The second brother has earned so much money over the years, she doesn't believe that he hasn't escaped a penny in taxes!

That night, it snowed heavily.

The next day, led by the imperial court, many families in the capital began to set up sheds outside the city gates.

Because there are many poor people in Xicheng, the Qin family's porridge shed was built outside the Xicheng Gate.

Towards noon, the sheds of each family were set up, and every household began to boil porridge.

Many thinly dressed people lined up in front of the porridge shacks to receive porridge.

Because it was the first day, Fu Shi and Qin Tingyun both felt that since Qin Xi had a marriage contract with King Junjun, as the future royal daughter-in-law, it was best to have a good reputation, so even if the two couples felt sorry for their daughter this time, they called Qin Xi to go to the soup kitchen together.

"Today is the first day, Xi'er came out to help, and it won't be needed from tomorrow, and the girls from other provinces are like this." Fu Shi said in a low voice.

"It's okay, I can come every day." It just so happened that she could secretly take out the food in the space and add it in.

Qin Xi really hadn't gone out to give porridge once in his previous life, so he couldn't help but look around, and the wives and ladies of the nearby porridge sheds really went out.

It's time to make a name for yourself, and no one wants to miss it.

"Mother, I'll go see if the porridge is ready."

She wanted someone to add some kelp in.

Every day, the island would send some kelp, seaweed and the like, which would be dried directly on the beach, and she would take it directly, put two bags before going out, and secretly put it in the kiln, so that the pomegranates could be carried on the carriage and brought over.

And the reason why Qin Xi would add kelp from the island to boil porridge is because in his previous life, Xirong spies gave Xiao Xuanxuan the plague, in addition to the soldiers in the military camp who were infected with the plague, many poor people were also infected, and many people died.

The food on the island is in good health, hoping to avoid the plague.

Qin Xi even suspected that Xirong's spies were mixed with the poor people and successfully infected Xiao Xuanxuan with the plague.

After all, during the soup kitchen, the emperor would send one or two princes or grandsons out to inspect every day.

Qin Xi motioned to the kitchen to take out the kelp and soak it, while paying attention to the surroundings to see if there were any suspicious people.

~

The porridge shed of the Xu family happened to be set up opposite Qin Xi's house, Xu Moyan saw Qin Xi also coming, and saw her instructing her subordinates to add something to the porridge.

She glanced at the porridge at home, which was so thin that it was almost all porridge water, and she said to the person next to her who was cooking porridge: "Put more rice in the porridge to boil, and then steam some steamed buns." ”

When the Xu family heard this, they couldn't help but remind in a low voice: "Miss, the soup kitchen has to be given for several days, and you can't use up all the food at once." Such porridge is fine! The steamed buns have already been steamed on a plate, and you can take them out when a noble person comes later. ”

Experienced soup cooks try to thin the porridge as much as possible, and the steamed buns are brought out when there are nobles patrolling.

This will allow you to give it for two more days! Otherwise, where is there so much food for the daily soup kitchen?

"Do what I say!" Xu Moyan had a sense of arrogance in his heart, and he didn't want to be compared to Qin Xi at all!
