Chapter 217: What Men and Women Want to Marry
After going down the mountain, Mi Xia Yao went straight back to Xiaochunfeng, and first reviewed the account books of the past two months.
After Chen Xi's report, after the beautiful auction three months ago, the reputation of this smile spring breeze is simply rising.
In addition, the gambling house on the second floor of Xiaochun Feng has a unique new way of gambling, which has long attracted people from all nearby cities.
Even, people who have come all the way from the capital can vaguely see the list of acquaintances on the register.
But Mi Xia Yao didn't care how popular these smiling spring breeze signs were now, and she began to prepare to open a new branch.
When she walked out of the laughing spring breeze wearing stars and moons, there were few people on the avenue.
After walking a few steps, I heard the sound of horses' hooves stepping lightly on the ground, which was quite obvious in the empty street.
When she raised her head, she saw Pei Xingyuan straddled the horse, and after he turned over and dismounted neatly, he approached Mi Xia Yao.
The faint smell of pen and ink on her body came into her sense of smell.
"I heard your brother say that you came down the mountain today."
With one hand, he pulled the slightly thick coat on Mi Xia Yao's body.
It's now autumn, and the cool breeze is just right during the day, but it's obviously a little cold at night.
Mi Xia Yao retracted her thoughts, only to find that her robe was a little hastily dressed when she went out.
"I heard that Duan Honglin was fished out of prison, and he even prepared for tomorrow's wedding seamlessly, so he was a little curious."
"Curious?"
Pei Xingyuan raised his eyebrows, his deep eyes were filled with vague disbelief, "Are you curious about why he was favored by Miao Qi, or are you curious about how the wine was served at the wedding of the second marriage?" ”
"You reminded me, I really should go and see how his second wedding was arranged, and I can use it in the future."
Mi Xia Yao nodded clearly, she subconsciously followed Pei Xingyuan's words and was talking nonsense.
Pei Xingyuan was amused by her serious nonsense.
"Ahem," Mi Xia Yao realized that she had gone off topic, and pulled herself back, "Seriously, Miao Qi must have spent a lot of money to get him out of prison, right?" ”
She tugged on Pei Xingyuan's arm, and said with a half-squinted gaze as if she were examining his soul.
In fact, when she heard the news from Gu Yun's mouth at that time, she vaguely had such a conjecture in her mind.
Just when she was thinking about why Duan Honglin was able to get out of prison, Shun Teng thought about it for a long time.
In this Linzhou City, rounding off is almost Pei Xingyuan's henchman on the back of his hand, and being able to leave the prison under his nose is either Pei Xingyuan's acquiescence, or Pei Xingyuan's ability is not in place, and he has not completely assimilated Linzhou City.
The latter, Mi Xia Yao thought about it and felt that it was unlikely.
The Chamber of Commerce can be played with by Pei Xingyuan, not to mention a small prison.
Well, there is only the former.
A certain party walked beside Mi Xia Yao, he held the reins, and he was not surprised by Mi Xia Yao's keen awareness.
He was even waiting for Mi Xia Yao to take the initiative to bring this topic to him.
got Mi Xia Yao's attention, and he was willing to explain.
"The money Miao Qi took from the old rich man before, to be honest, should be a bit thick."
Pei Xingyuan said such a sentence meaningfully.
Mi Xia Yao made it clear at one point, "Ah-so how much money did you cheat from Miao Qi?" ”
"How can it be called fraud, the official is in accordance with the rules and regulations and procedures, it is her own ring after ring, and the ring has to pay a lot of money, the official is in his hand, in the end, it is still a little unbearable."
Being able to hear these four words in Pei Xingyuan's mouth, Mi Xia Yao couldn't help but twitch at the end of her eyes.
"It's not much, it's just 109,000 taels of gold."
Mi Xia Yao: "......" mere?!
She let out a long sigh, "It is worthy of the old rich man that Mrs. Miao has a crush on, it is indeed rich and rivals the country." As someone else's continuation, in less than half a year, he can take away so much money, and he does have a little money ability in it. ”
Pei Xingyuan sneered and laughed, "In the future, every brick and every piece of land in Linzhou City will have the shadow of these 109,000 taels of gold." In my opinion, tomorrow's big wedding will have to make the whole city thank the rich man. ”
"No, I'll give the people of Quanlinzhou a good stage tomorrow, this is called squeezing out her last bit of money."
Mi Xia Yao sneered and ironic.
——
Early the next morning, the streets were filled with the sound of gongs and drums.
The pomp and circumstance was almost vigorous, and everywhere I went, there were traces left by red firecrackers.
Mi Xia Yao sat up from the bed by this noise, and stared at the noisy place with a blank face.
One neatly turned over and got out of bed, pushed open the door, and saw Gu Yun and Chen Xi standing on the corridor with their hands crossed over their chests with the same unhappy faces.
"What kind of quality, people's first marriage and marriage start gradually at the right time of the meal, how can there be such a person."
"People can't wait to keep a low profile when they get married for the second time, they seem to want the whole city to know that their second marriage is going to get married."
Chen Xi was probably annoyed for a while, forgetting that there were two sisters around him who were waiting for a second marriage, "A second marriage, why can't you keep a low profile!" ”
Gu Yun glanced at Chen Xi, "What's wrong with you in your second marriage?" ”
"The second marriage quarreled with me to sleep-" Chen Xi blurted out the words, and realized the ambiguity of his words later.
Hurriedly clasped his hands together and looked at Gu Yun flatteringly, "Good sister, you know I didn't mean that, I was just scolding Miao Qi." ”
Mi Xia Yao walked over with her robe and said indifferently: "Don't worry about watching the excitement when you stand here, come over and do business with me when you wake up." ”
She dragged the two men into the study.
The three women who had not had time to change their clothes and were sitting in the room wearing only thin single clothes began to re-plan their plans to drive the laughing spring breeze into the capital.
"Xia Yao, it's so early, why don't you ...... Shall we take a good rest and prepare for the storm that comes today? ”
Chen Xi looked at the account books in the morning and only felt dizzy, and she painfully wanted to ask for a little benefit.
Who knew that he was gagged fiercely by Mi Xia Yao's warning gaze.
"The main output of the storm today is not with you either, what do you have to consume? Watching the excitement can still make you tired? ”
Mi Xia Yao questioned Chen Xi coldly.
She is quite ambitious and destroys all her lazy thoughts.
"I reflect!"
Chen Xi raised his hand and hurriedly straightened up.
The content of the discussion in the study to move back to the capital gradually came to an end, and after Mi Xia Yao saw that there was progress, she let go and motioned for them to go back to rest.
After Mi Xia Yao went back, she just took advantage of the time to freshen up and take a short nap.
After Song Qiao fixed the last hairpin, Mi Xia Yao opened her eyes sharply and looked at herself in the bronze mirror with a deep expression.
