It wasn't until night that Qin Yizhi returned from the Li Mansion. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Big brother, you're back..."

Practicing in the front yard of the study, seeing the eldest brother coming back with a frown, as if he was preoccupied, Qin Madman shouted.

"Second brother, haven't slept yet?"

Seeing the second brother waiting for him in the courtyard, Qin Yizhi replied softly.

With that, Qin Yizhi turned around and walked into the study.

"Big brother, you have been to the Li Mansion for so long and have not come back, I don't worry..."

After receiving the exhalation, the Qin madman followed the eldest brother into the study.

"Big brother, why are you so sad? What happened?"

When he came to the study, Qin Yizhi sat on the wooden chair in front of the desk, and Qin Madman came to his side and asked with concern.

"Alas... Master Li is a strong man..."

Hearing this, he picked up the teacup on the desk and took a sip, Qin Yizhi sighed.

"Is it difficult for a strong man? Big brother said to listen..."

Immediately moved a wooden chair and sat next to the eldest brother, Qin Madman asked in a rough voice.

"Alas... Now that the end of the year is approaching, a few shops at home have rushed to make a batch of jewelry, but the deposit for this rush to make jewelry is a large amount..."

With his brows furrowed, Qin Yizhi said with a solemn face: "Now that all the funds in the family are circulating in a few shops, I really can't raise this batch of silver taels to rush to make jewelry..."

"Big brother, since that's the case, wouldn't it be better to return this batch of jewelry?"

Hearing this, he didn't know the business relationship, and Qin Madman suggested in a rough voice.

"Hehe, if you can retreat, then it's fine..."

Shaking his head, Qin Yizhi smiled bitterly: "A few days ago, I was just going to rush to make this batch of jewelry, and those dignitaries didn't know where to get the news, and they came to order, and now this batch of jewelry has already been ordered by many officials in the imperial court... If we retreat, we will offend these court officials..."

"What are you afraid of, big brother, if they dare to touch you, I will destroy his family!"

Hearing this, he stood up, patted his chest with his big hand, and said in a violent temper.

"Sit down! How many times has your eldest brother said this?

Seeing this, Qin Yizhi snorted, and said with a solemn expression: "The people don't fight with the officials, we don't have a relationship in the imperial court, but we can't afford to offend these officials! If they make a trick, it will be easy, and our store can be sealed, what should we do then?"

"It's... What the eldest brother said is that the second brother is reckless..."

Hearing the words of the eldest brother, after thinking about it carefully, he really couldn't offend these officials, and then frowned, and the Qin madman asked in a rough voice: "Big brother, then what should we do? Where did all this silver come from?"

"Hehe, today Master Li invited me to go to the Li Mansion for a talk, and he promised to lend me two silver taels..."

Hearing this, he glanced at his second brother, and Qin Yizhi sneered.

After laughing, Qin Yizhi's brows were deeply locked: "This Master Li is really cunning, he promised to lend me two silver taels, but he gave charcoal in the snow, and then put forward the condition that he married his little daughter..."

"Big brother, isn't this a good thing?

Beside him, with a rough smile, Qin Madman was simple-minded and quipped.

"Hehe, second brother, you have to remember that pies will not fall from the sky!"

The big hand patted the second brother on the shoulder, and Qin Yizhi said earnestly: "On the surface, Master Li is a charcoal in the snow, and then appreciates the eldest brother, and is willing to marry his daughter to me, but Master Li is a scheming man! Second brother, do you know that our biggest rival in the business of the Qin Mansion... Who is it?"

"The biggest rival... Isn't it the Li Mansion..."

Hearing this, the Qin madman naturally knew, and immediately replied in a rough voice, but before he finished speaking, he frowned, and realized in his heart.

"Yes, our Qin Mansion's business rival is the Li Mansion! Think about it carefully, if I marry Miss Li, wouldn't Master Li become my father-in-law? On the surface, it seems that they have become in-laws, and the two families are united, but in fact, the eldest brother's every move is in the eyes of Master Li, and when the time comes, Master Li will be my father-in-law, so don't I have to obey him?"

Hearing what the second brother said, Qin Yizhi nodded and explained in a loud voice: "Second brother, if the eldest brother didn't guess wrong, our Qin Mansion rushed to make a batch of jewelry, and this rumor was also spread by Master Li..."

"Hmph!

Furious in his heart, Qin Madman stood up, slapped the desk with his big hand, and roared angrily.

Angry, Qin Madman looked at the eldest brother with a solemn face: "Big brother, then you agreed?"

"Hehe, second brother, has the eldest brother ever suffered a loss in business?"

Hearing this, Qin Yizhi shook his head and smiled indifferently.

The implication of this is that he did not agree.

"Big brother, since that's the case, then the silver taels that rush to make jewelry... Where do I go?"

Nodding, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and then glared at the tiger's eyes, and Qin Madman asked worriedly.

"Second brother, don't worry, the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge, these days, the eldest brother will go to the homes of several friends to visit, hoping to borrow some silver taels..."

Frowning, looking at each other with his second brother, Qin Yizhi sighed.

Then he glanced at the sky, and seeing that it was getting late, Qin Yizhi said softly: "Okay, second brother, it's not early, you can also go and rest early, if there is anything, let's talk about it tomorrow..."

"Big brother, don't think about it, go to bed early..."

Nodding, the Qin madman comforted in a rough voice, and after that, he strode out of the study and left.

"Ugh..."

Looking at the back of the second brother leaving, Qin Yizhi sighed.

Suddenly, as if thinking of something, Qin Yizhi shook his head and smiled bitterly, glanced at the account book on the desk, and walked out of the study.

The stars were shining, and by the moonlight, Qin Yizhi came to the courtyard of the maids' wings.

When he walked into the courtyard, he saw a maid in a green dress, with her back to herself, sitting in the pavilion, looking up at the bright moon in the night sky.

Tonight, there were troubles in her heart, He Xiuniang couldn't sleep in the room, so she came to the courtyard to relax.

"Young Master..."

Suddenly, I heard footsteps behind me, turned around and looked, it was the eldest young master, He Xiuniang hurriedly got up and saluted.

"Xiuniang, haven't slept yet?"

Looking at He Xiuniang, Qin Yizhi asked with a smile.

"Well, I can't sleep, so I come out and walk around... Young Master, it's getting late, what are you here for?"

Shaking her head, looking at the handsome smile of the eldest young master, He Xiuniang murmured softly.

"Xiuniang, for the sake of business today, I missed the appointment, I'm sorry..."

Looking at He Xiuniang, Qin Yizhi said apologetically.

Hearing this, He Xiuniang stared at the beautiful eyes and looked at the eldest young master in surprise.

The trouble I was about was because the eldest young master missed the appointment before lunch, and he never taught himself to learn calligraphy.

But I never thought that the eldest young master would come to apologize to him in person.
