052 Xue Zhijian
She was greedy for money, and she didn't know if things would really go as smoothly as Xue Baobao said, so after thinking about it for a long time, she decided to take another look, but she ordered most of the money to be recovered, and the money was also pressed a lot.
Xue Baobao told her that she would wait for three months, and she would give it to her at the end of the year.
Wang Xifeng only felt that he had never looked forward to the New Year so much, and finally looked forward to the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month, but there was still no news from Xue Baobao.
By the thirtieth of the Chinese New Year's Eve, Wang Xifeng had eaten lunch, and there was still no news.
Just when Wang Xifeng was eager to rush to Xue's house and question Xue Baobao's collar, Ying'er came to bring food to Sister Qiao'er.
Wang Xifeng's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he didn't even have time to explain what was at hand, so he ran back.
Ying'er had already explained what she had eaten to Sister Qiao'er's nurse, and was playing with Sister Qiao'er, when she saw Wang Xifeng, she got up with a smile and saluted, "Hello second grandmother, our girl told me to come and send food to the eldest girl, and send some fat powder to the wife, grandmother and girls in the house, this is a gift list."
Ying'er said it was a gift list, but it was a small box.
Wang Xifeng endured his excitement, rewarded Ying'er generously, and ordered someone to send her back.
I hurriedly went back to the room to look, and sure enough, there was no gift list in the box at all, but a thick stack of silver tickets, all of which were 1,000 taels.
Wang Xifeng hurriedly counted, a full 37,000 taels!
It's only been three months!
Just a few rouge gouache recipes that she casually asked for!
And I will continue to send her money in the future!
For a moment, Wang Xifeng couldn't even see the silver ticket in front of him clearly, and it took a while to come back to his senses, hurriedly put away the silver ticket, and then looked at the letter pressed at the bottom of the box.
Wang Xifeng opened the letter and found that he was illiterate!
Wang Xifeng, "......"
Wang Xifeng would never dare to let Jia Lian know about this money, Jia Lian's virtue, she couldn't be clearer, even the silver in the oil pot dared to fish out the flowers.
If he knew that she had this money, he would have to steal it, and he would have to dig her, the key is that he didn't do anything good with the silver, and slept with his wife all day long!
Ping'er can rest assured, but if she wants to flatter Jia Lian, or she feels sorry for Jia Lian's tight money, or she accidentally leaks her mouth......
Wang Xifeng thought about it for a long time, but she didn't dare to ask others to read the letter for her, so she lit a brazier and burned the letter and smashed it again, so she was relieved.
But it's just a matter of money, and I'm not in a hurry, after a few days, my aunt always has to bring my cousin to Rongguo Mansion to pay New Year's greetings, and when the time comes, wouldn't it be better to ask in person?
If this business can continue, she should study well, not to mention anything else, be able to recognize a few words, read and write letters without asking for help......
She was thinking wildly, when Ping'er opened the curtain and came in, holding a box in her hand, which was also a silver ticket, as well as a ledger and a borrowed coupon.
At the end of the year, the money should be settled, and those silver bills are the money that Wang Xifeng got this year.
The rule of printing money is to give profit money at the end of each year, but only the principal will not be returned, unless it is no longer released.
Wang Xifeng counted them, but there were a lot of them, and they couldn't be compared with what Xue Baobao sent.
Wang Xifeng counted it, and ordered Ping'er to read the account book.
After Ping'er read it, he said, "Shocking, there is not much money all year round, go and get all the capital back, and I won't let it go next year."
They don't just put the money in the print, but they give it to the people who put the money, and then the people in China give it to the borrowers.
Ping'er was very puzzled, and couldn't help arguing, "It's grandma who withdrew some of the money and lowered the profits, so it is inevitable that it will be less."
Wang Xifeng ignored her, took the account book from her hand, and instructed, "These are no more than fifty taels, if you really can't pay them back, don't even ask for the capital, just think of it as a blessing for your sister."
You send people to keep an eye on it, don't let those who put the money get out of it.
Take a little effort, tell them one by one, and be humble in your attitude, don't waste money, and make people hold grudges."
Although Ping'er was suspicious, she didn't dare to say anything more when she saw that she had made up her mind, so she went.
Wang Xifeng smiled, with money and income in hand, who wants to do those things that damage yin morality?
Her master is a person who can't get in and out, and this huge Guogong Mansion is also full of food, and her inner bag is all up, so she can't sit and eat empty.
Wang Xifeng sighed while burning the account books and borrowing coupons of the printed money in the past few years on the fire just now.
She didn't want to use it as a gun, and in the end, she pulled it to pad her back, and her daughter forced someone else to be her mother!
Wang Xifeng got the benefits, so he urged Sanchun and Baoyu to toss fresh clothes and jewelry, fat powder jewelry.
Although she is illiterate, she is extremely smart and powerful, and she can draw inferences from one another, and soon she has the idea of recipes and maintenance recipes accumulated by the Rongguo Mansion for so many years.
Although the Xue family is not involved in the business of food and drink, Xue Baobao wanted to befriend her, so he personally threaded the needle and found a way for her.
Wang Xifeng's small treasury is getting fuller and fuller, and naturally he doesn't want to put money in India and take over lawsuits, and even his enthusiasm for the housekeeper to make oil and water is much less.
Of course, that's all for later, so let's not mention it for now.
Besides, Xue Baobao and Lin Daiyu were happy to get what they wanted, so Xue Baobao planned to fulfill their previous promise and take Lin Daiyu out of the city to go shopping and learn to ride a horse.
Xue Zhijian had no news for a long time, and she didn't dare to go to Yu Xin easily, for fear of leaking the collection and causing trouble for Yu Xin and Xue Zhijian.
She also wanted to take the opportunity to go out to see if she could find a chance to go around the door of the Zhenfu Division, and when she went out, it was always more convenient for her brother to contact her than for her to hide in the inner house of the Xue Mansion.
Xue Baobao thought like this, so he asked Xue Pan to find a better horse farm outside the city and charter it down, so that it was convenient for Lin Daiyu and Zhen Yinglian to learn, while he secretly planned how to break away from the big army and make some small moves.
Xue Pan is now a good baby in front of Xue Baobao, inquired around, and went to see it in person, and finally found a satisfactory one, paid a deposit to the owner of the horse farm, and instructed the time to clear the idle miscellaneous people, so that it is convenient for a few sisters to learn to ride a horse.
Xue Pan did a good job and felt a sense of accomplishment, so he hurried home.
When he did something wrong, although his sister was very fierce, she would starve him and beat him, but when he was not a bastard, his sister never hesitated to praise her, and she also took his wife, Cousin Lin and Zhen Yinglian to praise him together!
Xue Pan thought that his mother and sisters were praising him all over the room, and the maids and women who were waiting for him were also praising him vigorously, praising his wife and sisters for enjoying his blessings, and he couldn't help but smirk.
It's not that he wants them to praise him, but without his help, it's not easy for his sisters to learn how to ride a horse!
Even he found this suitable horse farm for a long time, and it took a lot of thought!
Xue Pan was smirking, and suddenly saw a team of brocade guards coming quickly, thinking that there was some urgent official business to do.
He didn't dare to delay the Jinyi guard's errand, and hurriedly urged the horse to avoid the side.
The team of brocade guards swept past him, and he didn't care, when he saw them passing, he wanted to urge the horse away, not wanting to hear someone behind him calling Master Xue.
Xue Pan hurriedly turned his horse, but saw that it was Yu Xin urging the horse to turn back and talk to him.
Xue Pan was suddenly flattered, and hurriedly urged the horse to greet him, and gave his hand again and again.
Yu Xin asked, "Where did Lord Xue come from?" ”
Xue Pan saw that he deigned to greet him, and he didn't think of lying at all, so he said honestly, "Xue went to see the racecourse, and thought about bringing his mother and a few younger sisters to relax when he was resting in a few days."
Yu Xin praised, "I often hear that although Lord Xue was born in a wealthy family, he has no ambition.
Now it's easy to take a break, I don't want to go out to drink and travel, but I am willing to sacrifice my rest time to spend time with my mother and sisters, which can be seen as a good thing.
I wonder if Master Xue has chosen his favorite horse farm?
The horse farm in the capital, Yu is very familiar with it, if he is not selected, he can recommend a good one to Lord Xue."
Xue Pan hurriedly reported the name of the horse farm, and said that if he needed it next time, he would trouble him again.
Yu Xin nodded, let go of the topic, and said, "That day, I went to Wuwen Pavilion to buy medical books, and I happened to meet Lord Xue's sister who also went to buy medical books.
My daughter's family likes medicine, but it's rare, I don't know which sister of Lord Xue is? ”
Xue Pan had already been praised by Yu Xin, and he was dizzy, where did he remember that he couldn't easily mention the matter of the daughter of the boudoir to outsiders, and replied honestly, "Xue has only one sister, and the other is Aunt Lin's cousin and a righteous sister."
The person I saw should be my sister-in-law, who has always liked to serve medicinal herbs."
Yu Xin sighed, but did not say anything about this topic, and after a few more pleasantries, he said that he was on official business and took his leave.
After Yu Xin left, Master Wu frowned and spoke, "The reputation of the daughter of the boudoir is important, and the uncle shouldn't have casually talked to Lord Yu about the three girls just now."
Xue Pan also reacted, but it was too late to regret it at this time, so he had to say with a tiger face, "What can't you say?" You don't look at who Lord Yu is!
If you really want to inquire about your sisters, and you don't know how many ways there are, you need to come and ask me deliberately?
It's just a casual greeting, and you think too much! ”
Master Wu saw that what he said was reasonable, so he stopped talking.
Xue Pan was afraid that he would go back to complain to Xue Baobao, so he hurriedly threatened, "You are not allowed to sue the girl when you go back!"
It's a trivial matter for Lord Yu to lose face, if Lord Yu knows that we are guarding against him like this, and remembering a grudge, how many heads you have are not enough for him to cut with the embroidered spring knife! ”
Although Master Wu felt that he had said a few words to a deep girl, Yu Xin would never know.
But since he entered Beijing, he has heard all kinds of terrible things about Jinyiwei all the time, thinking that he is not afraid of 10,000, he is afraid of what happens, so he has to nod.
……
……
Xue Baobao didn't know that his stupid brother was stupid again, and he was preparing for the autumn trip with great interest.
Autumn outing, the standard configuration must be food, an autumn outing without food is definitely a soulless autumn outing!
Xue Baobao thought of the bags of junk food and drinks stuffed when he went to the spring and autumn outings in his previous life, and his saliva was about to fall.
Now that she has no of the conveniences of the new society and the great abundance of materials, she will do it herself!
The young lady of a large family will bring pots and pans, tables and benches, tea, wine and food all with her when she travels, but it is inconvenient outside after all, and she must prepare a few cold dishes first.
First of all, there are four kinds of vegetarians: cold salad three silks, yuba mixed with fungus, cold salad fish-flavored eggplant, and then a cold dish standard, pouring sauce and preserved egg tofu.
Then there are four kinds of meat: cold boneless pig's trotters, secret duck tongue, dry mixed spicy beef, and then Xue Baobao's favorite, lemon sour and hot chicken feet.
After it was done, the impatient Xue Baobao grabbed a chicken claw with her bare hands and gnawed it, for the sake of everyone's "decency", she has not gnawed chicken feet since she entered the world of Red Mansions!
This sour, spicy and flavorful chicken feet will always be one of her favorites, whether she is a lady or not!
Soon, a big bowl was gnawed by Xue Baobao to the bottom, Xue Baobao was satisfied to wipe his mouth, took a big sip of the black plum soup prepared earlier, and sure enough, this is life!
After eating to your heart's content, I continue to prepare the main food for tomorrow.
Rice is inconvenient, Xue Baobao is going to make oily spicy noodles, noodles and oily spicy noodles can be prepared today, bring them tomorrow, and then just put up the pot and cook, convenient.
After exercising during this time, Xue Baobao is no longer the Wuxia Ameng of the past, his wrist strength and arm strength are very strong, he refused the help of the cook and a few maids, pulled the noodles himself, and went to fry the spicy seeds.
To make the oil and spicy pepper delicious, the first thing is that the chili pepper should be in good condition.
Xue Baobao had already sneaked out some chili peppers from the space and made chili powder, fine chili pepper powder with seeds, which was just right to use at this time.
The second important thing is to master the heat well.
Xue Baobao used a big pot stove to make oil and spicy seeds for the first time, and he was not satisfied with the previous two times, and he was finally satisfied after making the third pot.
The staple food is ready, and tomorrow I will bring two baskets of crabs to steam, and a room of women will not be able to eat much, so it should be about the same.
In the end, there was a snack, Xue Baobao calculated the taste of Mrs. Xue and others, and decided to prepare eight kinds of pastries, and then add some melons, fruits, walnuts, etc.
After everything was ready, Xue Baobao ordered that the staple food tonight would be oily and spicy noodles.
He also ordered a big bowl of lemon sour and spicy phoenix feet and dry mixed spicy beef, a plate of soufflé and a plate of chestnut cake to Wang Xifeng, and he personally brought a plate of soufflé to Lin Daiyu to talk to.
This soufflé is made with white fine flour, cheese instead of fat oil, and added dates and chestnuts as filling.
Iron furnace, iron cover, blazing charcoal on both sides, bake until crispy.
The best thing about it is that it is not as sweet and greasy as other pastries, full of milky flavor, very crunchy, and has an excellent taste, which Lin Daiyu likes the most.
No matter what, it is always the best freshly baked, and Xue Baobao will send it to Lin Daiyu as soon as it is ready.
Lin Daiyu was writing, and when she saw that she had brought a soufflé, she put down her pen and ate with her.
There are a total of 12 soufflés on a plate, two of you, one for me and one for me, and they will be wiped out in a while.
Lin Daiyu has been raised in the Xue family for four months, and her appetite has really been raised a lot by Xue Baobao.
After the two finished eating snacks, Lin Daiyu showed Xue Baobao the letter Lin Ruhai wrote to her, and said happily, "Sister, look, my father said that he is very likely to go to Beijing at the end of the year, and he will stay in the capital in the future, and it will be confirmed in another month."
It will take ten to fifteen days for this letter to be sent from Yangzhou, and soon the news will be confirmed, and maybe my father will soon send someone to clean and repair the house in the capital."
The fifth prince of the Lin family, there are naturally many officials in Beijing, and Lin Ruhai himself has been an official in the capital for a period of time, and he naturally has a house in Beijing.
Xue Baobao was also happy for her, and said with a smile, "Then Sister Zhen and I will also go to give ideas to your family's house."
We can also move some branches from my fruit trees and flowers, so that you don't have to buy them again."
Lin Daiyu also felt good when she heard it, and the two called Zhen Yinglian to choose flowers and trees together.
Mrs. Xue and Mrs. Zhen also came to help when they heard about it, and there was a lot of laughter in the back garden.
Xue Baobao also laughed unconsciously, it was another day when everyone in ancient times had nothing to do but was extraordinarily fulfilling!
……
……
Early the next morning, everyone in the Xue family got up early in the morning, had breakfast, and after a busy time, they went out of the city in a hurry.
Xue Pan had already wrapped up the racecourse, except for the two boys who were left by the owner of the racecourse to take care of, there was no one quiet.
Mrs. Xue and Mrs. Zhen commanded the children and maids of the Xue family to first pull up the curtain on the masters' resting feet, and then set up the tables, chairs, benches, pots and pans, etc.
They were busy, and Xue Baobao and the others went to see the horses and pick up the horses.
In view of the fact that Lin Daiyu and Zhen Yinglian have never ridden a horse, and only dare to pick a docile pony, Xue Baobao will slip away and pick the same one as them.
Lin Daiyu and Zhen Yinglian rode a horse for the first time, and it was very difficult just to get on the horse, and they didn't dare to tremble.
Xue Baobao simply got on the horse stool, pinched Lin Daiyu's waist with both hands, and with a force of his arms, he hugged her onto the horse, and then hugged Zhen Yinglian on the horse as it was.
Xue Pan, "......"
It's a shame that he didn't dare to fight against his sister all the time, just with this strength, it can't hurt more than Master Wu to beat him!
got Lin Daiyu and the others on the horse, Xue Baobao turned over neatly, also got on the horse, and followed the two unhurriedly, while telling them about the skills of horseback riding.
Lin Daiyu and the others were very nervous at first, but when they saw that the ponies were very docile and the boys were holding tightly, they slowly relaxed.
They were just when they were fresh, and they were led around the horse farm by the boys over and over again, and they were not bored, but very excited, chattering and exchanging the feeling of riding.
The occasional neighing of the horses, or the urge to graze on the side of the road, can surprise them.
Mrs. Xue and Mrs. Zhen sat in the curtain, making female celebrities while watching several girls laugh.
Xue Baobao, "......"
The entertainment life of ancient women was so scarce!
I think back then, she didn't make such a fuss when she experienced the roller coaster for the first time.
About half an hour later, Lin Daiyu and the others felt tired and got off the horse.
Mrs. Xue and Mrs. Zhen were busy taking handkerchiefs and water to serve a few girls in person.
Girls of this age, whether ancient or modern, are about the same, as long as they are not bored at home and studying, it is good to go out anywhere.
At this time, the autumn sun is just right, basking in the sun and blowing a small breeze, eating snacks, how can it be comfortable?
Lin Daiyu and Zhen Yinglian are definitely birds that have been locked in the cage for too long, and as soon as they fly out, they must fly everywhere, and after eating and drinking, they discussed slowly riding a horse and walking far away, playing in the water, and picking flowers.
Mrs. Xue and Mrs. Zhen were very happy to see them, and they couldn't bear to be restrained, so they asked Xue Pan to take care of them and let them go.
Xue Baobao said, "I'll ride around the front first, see what is interesting in front of me, and then come back and call you."
By the way, step on the spot and see if there is a chance to find a justifiable excuse to break away from the main army.
Xue Pan didn't dare to ask her to run forward alone, so he hurriedly told the boys to follow, and as for the maids, they didn't know how to ride horses.
Xue Baobao got on the horse, and when she felt that her palm was stuffed, she was stunned before looking at the little maid waiting for her to get on the horse.
The little guy lowered his eyebrows and looked pleasing to the eye, as if he hadn't stuffed her at all, and he was one of the boys left by the horse farm to take care of.
Xue Baobao glanced at him, urged the horse to move forward slowly, and when he was out of the sight of Xue Pan and Lin Daiyu, he opened the note that was stuffed into the palm of his hand under the cover of his sleeve.
The eyes were simplified Chinese characters written with an eyebrow pencil, and the handwriting was even more familiar to her.
Brother!
Xue Baobao's nose was sour, and a layer of fog suddenly covered his eyes, and it took him a long time to see the words on the note: Xue Zhijian of Qianjin Pharmaceutical Group would like to ask the girl to see it.
Qianjin Pharmaceutical Group!
Xue Zhijian!
Although Xue Baobao bit his lip stubbornly, tears still fell down crazily, brother, it's brother! It's her brother!
It's not Xue Pan, it's Xue Zhijian, it's Xue Zhijian!
Enter V, friends support a lot~
