Chapter 290: The New Mansion of the Li Mansion
In the Lixiang Garden of Rongguo Mansion, when everyone saw an invitation letter sandwiched in a silver ticket, even Xue Pan, who was usually used to hip-hop, suddenly quieted down.
In fact, the invitation letter is very simple, "Invite the two heads of the Xue family to come to the Tongzhou branch tomorrow to meet." "The payment is the Tongzhou Branch of the Shunfeng Transport Dart Bureau, and it is stamped.
Then bursts of laughter erupted in the pear fragrance garden. Even Aunt Xue, who has always been on the shelf of elders, let out a "haha" laugh. When she realized that something was wrong, she quickly covered her mouth reservedly.
Aunt Xue found that no one noticed her at this time. All of them were immersed in joy.
Only Xue Zhen was hiding his face and crying, and Xue Zhen was also crying with joy. Although it is already known that the cooperation with the Downwind Transport Dart Bureau is a foregone conclusion. But when I saw the invitation, I couldn't help crying.
Xue Zhen suddenly let go of his heavy burden, and only crying could express his emotions.
Early the next morning, Xue Pan and Xue Zhen took the carriage of the Shunfeng Transport Dart Bureau and went straight to Tongzhou.
At night, in the pear fragrance garden of Rongguo Mansion, the lights are colorful. Xue's family room and second room gathered together. The joy at this time can only be shared by those close to you. Therefore, the Xue family did not invite guests and friends.
Xue Pan, who was already strong in wine, was happy today, and even Aunt Xue did not interfere. Soon Xue Pan began to speak with his tongue open. "Brother Tad, Li Miao has helped us a lot this time."
Xue Zhen was really a little ashamed at this time, and he was still too excited. Now it's not as good as Xue Pan, who has drunk too much. Li Miao must be thankful. Now it seems that there is also a great possibility of cooperation with the Chamber of Commerce of the Southern Bureau.
At this time, Xue Pan had been helped back to rest by Xiangling. It's rare that Xue Pan didn't go crazy tonight. Shortly after lying down, he began to snore.
Xue Pan, who was asleep, also laughed "hehe" from time to time. Xiangling, who has been cautious and waiting on the side, is relieved. Tears glistened in his eyes.
At this time, there were still Aunt Xue, mother and daughter, and Xue Zhen brothers and sisters on the wine table. Xue Zhen's eyes looked like he was looking at Xue Baochai, and his meaning was self-evident. Xue Baochai, who had a few glasses of wine, was seen by Xue Zhen, and his face was even more red.
Of course, Xue Baochai understood what Xue Zhen meant. Isn't that how to thank Li Miao? Xue Baochai was embarrassed to say, in fact, as soon as you left in the morning, I went to thank you. Although it is still the same old thing, Xue Baochai feels that Li Miao still likes it.
Xue Baochai knew that Li Miao's willingness to help the Xue family this time was completely for the sake of his own face. As for Xue Zhen's second room, it's just incidental, that is, to find a reason. But how could Xue Baochai say this.
So, Xue Baochai could only look at Aunt Xue, and then look at Xue Baoqin. It's just to defuse the embarrassment. Xue Baochai really didn't mean anything else. But the rest of the room may have misunderstood, and they all began to ponder.
Xue Baoqin also took a few sips of wine tonight, lowering his head as if he was thinking about something. Xue Baoqin, who had a good amount of alcohol, was blushing like something at this time.
Xue Baoqin pondered, this time it may be difficult to escape and become the fate of Li Miao's concubine. How many women in the big family can escape the fate of family marriage?
Especially seeing the reluctant eyes of his brother Xue Zhen, Xue Baoqin felt that this matter was basically decided. 's father has died, and the eldest brother Xue Zhen could have decided his marriage in one word.
Xue Baoqin was of course not very satisfied with becoming Li Miao's concubine. Her family knows her own family affairs, and it is not too aggrieved to be Li Miao's concubine. The point is that she doesn't want to be one of the many concubines. But what else can be done now?
Xue Zhen now knew Li Miao's strength. Li Miao is committed to the promotion of high-quality seeds. The foundation of the Downwind Transport Dart Bureau comes from the cultivation of the guard forces of each grange. It can provide a steady stream of excellent dart masters for the downwind transportation dart board.
As for the Southern Bureau Chamber of Commerce, it should be the same. There are also a lot of granges under the Southern Bureau Chamber of Commerce. A large number of guards and sailors came from the Grange under his name.
So now it seems that Xue Zhen can have a relationship with the Shunfeng Transport Dart Bureau and even the Southern Bureau Chamber of Commerce, and the relationship is not shallow. Probably because of Li Miao's relationship with promoting high-quality seeds.
Obviously, Li Miao's energy is not shallow, and with the addition of a young official from the fourth grade, the future is immeasurable. It is also a good choice for my sister to be able to give Li Miao as a concubine. Besides, if Li Miao can contribute to this matter now, can't he sabotage this matter in the future?
It's easier to destroy than to build. Therefore, the marriage between the Xue family and Li Miao has become inevitable. Although he knows his sister Xue Baoqin's personality, he may not be willing to be Li Miao's concubine. But in the face of the overall situation, the personal feelings of children still have to stand aside.
Early the next morning, the Xue family received a letter from Jinling's hometown. Inform the Southern Bureau that it has begun to audit the Xue family's industry.
Everyone in the Xue family seemed to be like that, and they were not as happy as expected. Was it expected? Plus yesterday was a bit too excited. The crowd may have been numb for a long time. Only Xue Baoqin seemed preoccupied.
Xue Zhen also knew about Xue Baoqin's affairs, and he couldn't delay it any longer. The audit of the Chamber of Commerce of the Southern Bureau has been going on for almost ten days. According to the efficiency of the Southern Bureau Chamber of Commerce, it should not be much worse than the downwind transport dart bureau.
In other words, the day when Xue Zhen and Xue Pan will leave Beijing is not far away. Xue Zhen's brother and sister relationship is still very good, and Xue Zhen still decided to talk to her sister. If the marriage with Li Miao is successful, the Xue family will have to rely on Xue Baoqin in the future?
The atmosphere of the conversation between the two brothers and sisters was quite harmonious. Although this kind of thing, Xue Zhen should not come forward directly. But Xue Zhen was also helpless.
Xue Baoqin, who has always been heroic, was slightly resentful in his shyness, but Xue Zhen just didn't see it. It's been like this, what can I say?
On the morning of the same day, Aunt Xue was entrusted by Xue Zhen to go out in person and go straight to the Li Mansion.
The current Li Mansion has long since moved. A few days after Rongguo Mansion bought Laifu, an auspicious day of the zodiac was chosen and the relocation was completed. The low-key Li Miao didn't have any banquets. My family got together, had a feast, and was done.
The Li Mansion suddenly expanded tenfold. Whether it is a master or a slave, it is not very suitable all of a sudden. The original Li Mansion was a little smaller, but it was only a little smaller. A few more yards would be just fine.
Now both the front yard and the backyard are really empty. For example, the woman in the backyard used to have one yard for one person, which seemed a little insufficient. That's because Lin Daiyu didn't add people on her side, and she was also empty.
What now? Li Miao's wives and concubines lived in ten courtyards by themselves, almost barely full. In other words, the idle rate of Li Miao's backyard is ninety percent. Think about what this concept is. Li Miao's wives and concubines also joked that there are indeed too few sisters.
It's Li Miao's fault for a long time, it's still not enough! Later, the backyard was simply divided into three courtyards: east, middle and west.
Jia Yingchun in the East Courtyard, the population is the most prosperous of the three rooms. It can only be gathered together, and the yard close to the big garden can only be temporarily sealed. It seems to be a lot more popular.
Jia Yingchun lives in the main courtyard of the East Courtyard, and a small courtyard in the main courtyard houses Si Qi. The two opposite courtyards next to the main courtyard live Li Wen and Li Qi sisters.
Maybe it's used to it, the master bedroom in Li Qi's yard is always empty. In addition to getting Li Miao's hints, Li Qi will occasionally stay in the hospital for a few nights.
Next to Li Wen's courtyard, there is Xing Xiuyan. Miaoyu, who is also a teacher and friend with Xing Xiuyan, is next to Xing Xiuyan's yard. It is also the most remote courtyard in the East Courtyard, and of course it is the first choice for those who love quiet Miaoyu.
The courtyard opposite Xing Xiuyan was prepared for Third Sister You. Third Sister You, as the concubine of the East Mansion, left a courtyard for her. Even if you don't live at night, you can have a place to rest during the day.
At the beginning, Third Sister You also lived occasionally. Third Sister You is very satisfied with this courtyard. happened to be at the opposite door of Xing Xiuyan. But the third sister of You and Miaoyu are in conflict, and one loves quiet. One likes to be lively.
Third Sister You and Miaoyu are diagonally opposite the door. You Sanjie, who has a ready-to-wear shop, is destined to be in the market. If you don't make a clothing shop, you can only close your doors. As a result, Miaoyu repeatedly warned to no avail, "You are an outer room, you shouldn't live here." ”
If it weren't for the fact that Xing Xiuyan had a good relationship with the two, the persuasion would have been successful. The two almost fought. Next, Third Sister You, the outer room that enjoys the concubine's room, began to be unworthy of its name.
Miaoyu was angry and moved to Lin Daiyu's west courtyard on the same day. Of course, Lin Daiyu has no opinion. Except for the small courtyard of the main courtyard, where purple cuckoos live, it is considered full.
Now in the entire West Garden, only Miaoyu and Ding Qiusheng live in the other courtyard. And it's all borrowed. Miaoyu doesn't need to say much, it belongs to the East Courtyard.
Ding Qiusheng is a maid who belongs to Li Miao, and now has the status of a concubine. It also belongs to the Kerr Middle Court. As the peach grew up, Ding Qiusheng, a maid who was a baby, was also honorably laid off.
Now the middle courtyard is completely idle, so Ding Qiusheng can only live in Lin Daiyu's west courtyard.
Lin Daiyu's West Courtyard finally gained a little popularity. For this reason, Miss Lin was nagged by Lin Ruhai. is really a child without a mother, Lin Shilang can only go out in person.
Miss Lin is also aggrieved, as if she is something. "It's not that I'm jealous or servant. It's that Ermu is too good to speak! ”
