Chapter 22: Sharing
After Duan Yunsleeve entered the door with the female palace soldiers, he saw that Mu Ping and Mu Qinxue had different expressions, and hurriedly asked about the situation.
"My father is worried that Liang Xiao will lead people to sell illicit salt ......," Mu Qinxue replied.
Duan Yunsleeve was stunned for a moment, forced a smile, and said, "He's not that kind of person. β
Mu Ping and Mrs. Mu looked at Duan Yunsleeve in surprise.
Duan Yunchong realized that he had slipped his mouth, and hurriedly added: "After all, he is the descendant of the Marquis of Lanling, and the palace has sent someone to visit him, so there is no problem with his conduct." Moreover, who would dare to sell illicit salt in the capital? β
Mu Ping looked puzzled: "Then ...... him?"
Duan Yunsleeve smiled: "If he wants to make sugar, he needs workers and guards. Lord Mu is worried that he will affect your Dingguo Hou Mansion, after all, the Dingguo Hou Mansion asked him to hire guards. β
Mu Ping just nodded awkwardly.
Duan Yunsleeve comforted again: "Lord Mu is too worried. However, this palace also understands Lord Mu's feelings, if Liang Xiao is really useless, he will only lose, and Sister Qin Xue will not take a fancy to him. β
"If you lose, you will lose......" Mu Qinxue subconsciously responded, and quickly changed her words, "Don't marry him......"
Mu Ping didn't dare to disobey, but kept nodding his head and saying yes.
After the husband and wife left, Mu Qinxue pulled Duan Yunsleeve to sit down, looking grateful.
"Thanks to Sister Yunsleeve covering me, otherwise I would have to elope with Liang Xiao in the future!"
"Elopement?" Looking at his best friend who was getting more and more bold in his thoughts, Duan Yunsleeve leaned forward and leaned back with a smile, "Sister Qin Xue, don't worry, he is really talented!" Even if you can't do business, you must be a great talent who can govern the country in the future! He is only seventeen years old, and the future is promising! β
Mu Qinxue was finally relieved and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Tell you quietly, my sister intends to let Liang Xiao be an imperial businessman first, and after my sister meets him, if she is really impressed by him, she will definitely focus on cultivating him!"
Mu Qinxue was so moved that she suddenly thought of something, as if she had made up her mind, and whispered, "Sister Yunsleeve? I promise you yours, and I'm willing to share everything I have with you, including Liang Xiao......"
"Divide and share Liang Xiao?" Duan Yunsleeve was taken aback, hesitated for a moment, blushed, and said, "People didn't take a fancy to him......
"We are good sisters, let's talk about it first, if you like him, let him be the master of the horse, I just hope you can allow him to take a concubine...... Mu Qinxue reminded.
"Sister Qinxue, that's your fiancΓ©!" Duan Yunsleeve blushed and complained.
Mu Qinxue said with a smile: "The eight characters haven't been skimmed yet, and he doesn't know that he is already in my bag." β
Duan Yunsleeve hurriedly changed the topic and said, "In short, let him show his talent first, so that your father and mother will be impressed!" β
The two sisters reached a consensus and began to "plot" how to deceive Liang Xiao......
Liang Xiao's Liang Mansion was once the Marquis of Lanling's Mansion, covering an extremely wide area, enough to accommodate 500 people.
Since the Lanling Marquis Mansion was sealed, the servants were all sent home, leaving the empty Lanling Marquis Mansion.
For Liang Xiao, this means that the workers recruited from the displaced people have a home.
The guards of the Dingguo Marquis' Mansion are arranging for the workers' families to move in, and Liang Xiao is also working hard to write.
Jiang Fuxue sat on the side, quietly watching Liang Xiao, with a little more curiosity in her eyes.
Liang Xiao's way of appeasing those displaced people just now was simple and rude, that is, he promised to let them eat enough and give them enough wages.
The scenes of those homeless people being grateful to her are certainly unforgettable.
But what she will never forget in her life is Liang Xiao's calmness at that time, neither arrogant nor domineering, but just calm as water, which is completely different from the past.
It was as if everything was under his control.
"In the past, my brother was also kind and charitable, but he always hit a wall everywhere with enthusiasm. Now my brother has become extremely calm and intelligent......"
"Is it because after a serious illness, you have a big understanding?"
Jiang Fuxue muttered to herself in her heart, looking at Liang Xiao into a trance.
The grandmother who was sitting next to her looked at Jiang Fuxue and was fascinated.
Only Liang Xiao was engrossed in writing and painting.
"Cher, you have something on your mind."
Liang Xiao suddenly spoke, pulling Jiang Fuxue's thoughts back.
Jiang Fuxue snorted: "Xue'er hopes that her brother can get rich, get ahead, and return with a beauty." The talented woman in the Dingguo Marquis Mansion is very good......"
"You haven't seen her yet, how do you know she's very nice." Liang Xiao stopped his pen and looked at Jiang Fuxue with a smile.
Jiang Fuxue replied: "Because she is the only one who sends someone to invite her brother, and she also has to use a carriage." After my brother came back, he didn't have any displeasure, and praised her for being worthy of her name. Therefore, Cher hopes that the best girls in the world can marry her brother......"
Liang Xiao couldn't help laughing: "Both? β
"It's my brother's master who wants my brother to marry three wives and four concubines!" Jiang Fuxue reminded.
Liang Xiao just nodded, noncommittal.
"Xue'er, in fact, there is an ancient person I admire, who once said a word. The Huns have not been destroyed, why should they be at home? β
Jiang Fuxue was stunned: "Is there such a person?" β
Liang Xiao's gaze gradually deepened, as if he was talking to himself.
"Not here, but my brother went to a magical place in his dreams, and there is such a history there. The Huns have not been destroyed, why should they be, is what the famous general who struck the Huns said. My father died on the battlefield, was shown to the public by the barbarians, and the country and the family hate, I will not forget. My master asked me to marry and have children as soon as possible, but he was also worried that one day I would die unexpectedly and it would be too late to leave an heir, after all, there are many people who die young. β
"No matter what, my brother will protect himself and protect you. Make meritorious contributions first, marry a wife, and fate will naturally come. β
Jiang Fuxue listened attentively and muttered, "When the time comes, it will naturally come......"
"You can say the same thing." Liang Xiao was stunned for a moment and laughed.
"My brother recruited so many workers and gave him such a good treatment, but he has a plan to make a profit?" Jiang Fuxue asked tentatively.
"When the sugarcane arrives, let's make sugar, and if we do it a little more, we will definitely be able to sell well." Liang Xiao said confidently.
Jiang Fuxue and Grandma glanced at each other, and when they saw that Grandma was suspicious, they glanced at her.
Grandma just sighed silently, didn't say anything more, and went back with Jiang Fuxue.
In the room, Jiang Fuxue said with a worried face: "When the time comes, can you buy the sugar that my brother sold at a high price and support his business?" β
Grandma replied: "Miss, this time you have to believe the young master, he has never been so confident and calm......"
Jiang Fuxue was sullen.
Grandma saw it in her eyes, and added: "Such a young master may be able to enter the master's eyes." β
Jiang Fuxue's eyes lit up, and her face was filled with a happy smile.
"It's too dangerous here, let's arrest my brother to Bashu in the future~"
Someone, who was drawing, suddenly sneezed, looked up at the autumn rain outside the window, and hurriedly added a coat to himself.
"The sugarcane of the Bai family and the Dingguo Marquis Mansion will arrive tomorrow."
