Chapter 161

Although Ah Lian's family suffered a big loss, the business was done, and there was a curtain of flags that said "Lonely Goose Mansion Pavilion" was picked out horizontally, which was extremely eye-catching. And when the people who went to the Lonely Goose Mansion to give gifts saw this "Lonely Goose Mansion Pavilion", the first thing that came to mind was the boy in brocade. Besides, wherever you wash the horses, it's better to patronize the Lonely Goose Mansion. But Ah Lian's family is not bad, Juanzi just washed the horse, the old lady served tea, and Ah Lian sent buns. This family of four got up early and worked greedily at night, so busy that they didn't even have time to eat, and in five days, they actually earned a lot of broken silver, estimated to be forty taels, and the whole family couldn't keep their mouths together. But Ah Lian is an honest person, and she thinks that her business is so good because she played the signboard of Guyan Mansion, so she felt that she should give half of the silver to Guyan Mansion, and it should be taxed. She sewed a small cloth bag, filled it with twenty taels of silver, and greeted her younger siblings: "Sister will go to the Lonely Goose Mansion to hand over the silver." He walked twelve or thirteen miles away from home, and inquired about the Lonely Goose Mansion all the way into the city, and said to the man guarding the door: "A few big brothers, please report, I want to see your old lady." When the donkey heard this "old lady", he smiled and said, "Girl, there is no old lady in our house." Ah Lian thought to herself, it must be that the old lady of the Lonely Goose Mansion is long gone, so she said, "Then, I will look for your old lady the same." The donkey said happily: "Girl, there is no old lady in our house." Ah Lian felt desolate and sad when she heard this, and felt that this brocade-clothed boy was too pitiful, and even the two elders were gone, so she took out the bag of broken silver from her bosom and said, "Then I will find your housekeeper." When the donkey heard this, he was about to speak, and when he saw Bai Wen walking out with the spirit ape, he hurriedly pointed at Ah Lian and said, "Miss, what seems to be the matter with this girl." Bai Wen looked at Ah Lian, who was in shabby clothes, and thought that it was impossible for him to give a gift. He took a step forward and said with a smile: "My brother Xiao is busy, just tell me if you have anything." Ah Lian said what she meant, Bai Wen felt that this was an honest man, so he said: "This silver is earned by your family's hard work, and Guyan Mansion doesn't want it, and you can't ask for it." By the way, after the Mid-Autumn Festival, there will be no people who give gifts, so what will your family do in the future?" Ah Lian smiled faintly and said, "Miss." We were born to be miserable. It's okay. Bai Wen said: "Otherwise, there are more than 100 miscellaneous horses in Guyan Mansion that need to be fed, if you are willing, let your mother and younger siblings come to my house to raise horses." The Lonely Goose Mansion will take care of your whole family's food. Live. Wear. There are also moon flowers, and there are silver rewards for festivals. Just this time, my brother Xiao married a wife. The people in the house also got five taels of silver. Ah Lianle was happy, knowing that her honesty had been rewarded, and the whole family didn't have to worry about food and accommodation anymore, so she hurriedly said: "Miss, the house must be very busy at this time, and you need to employ people, so my family will come to do things today." Seeing that Ah Lian was so sensible, Bai Wen's heart was also happy, and he felt that he had not helped the wrong person, so he said to the donkey: "You go and set up a carriage and go with this girl." It's twelve or thirteen miles away, and it's tiring enough to walk, so let's pick up her whole family. ”

However, it was said that the Qingzhou Mansion had been idle for a while since it had the Lonely Goose Mansion, but in recent days, it has suddenly become busy again, which makes the prefect Zhang a headache. There are so many boats in the Laiqing River that the river is blocked, the inns and inns in the city are all violent, the restaurants and restaurants have no seats all day long, and even the government post station is crowded with foreign officials. There are even worse things, Qingzhou City for the first time there are more outsiders than locals, there are many people in trouble for a while, food is short, the butcher has no pigs to kill, vegetables have become a hot commodity, the shopkeepers of nearby villages and towns come here to do business like a market, the streets and alleys are crowded with people, the women in Qinglou are not enough, the gambling house is boiling all night, there is no place to rest the horse, there are more people than Jingshi. But this is not over, those who want to come to the Guyan Mansion to take refuge, those who come to be lively, and those with heavy gifts are still pouring into Qingzhou City, and even those who sing and play tricks are pouring in from all over the world, as a result, many people can't find a place to eat, and they have to worry about their residence at night. Master Zhang really couldn't think of a way to save the emergency, so he had no choice but to go to Tianxiao and ask him to give an explanation. But when I arrived at the front yard of the Lonely Goose Mansion, there were so many guests that they were the same as on the street, eating and drinking had to be divided into batches, and there were so many gifts that they didn't have time to move, and the white flowers and silver were basking in the sun, and many people were complaining that tonight's accommodation had not yet been settled.

Tian Xiao was laughing with a group of evil stars of the Dragon Slayer Sect in front of the building, and Ke San came over. "Childe, the prefect Lord Zhang is here, he looks very anxious, I have invited him into the guest hall, you can go quickly. Hearing that the parents had arrived, Tian Xiao hurriedly said to Yun Zhongpiao: "Second senior brother, Master Zhang is here, it's not good for me not to go, then I will be out of company." Then he turned and squeezed into the crowd, and arrived at the guest hall in the front yard. Lord Zhang was chatting with a few foreign officials, and when he saw that the master was coming and didn't wait for him to take a seat, he went straight to the point and showed his many hardships, and then said with a smile: "Who made you famous all over the world, bold and bold, and married seven wives, making many people on land and water, you are the culprit, you have to solve all these things, I can't do anything." Hearing Tianxiao's laughter, he sat down and said, "It doesn't matter who is the culprit, your business with Master Zhang is my business, but it will definitely be too late to build a building." But I know that the more than 2,000 acres of land outside Ximen City are all owned by the government, and I won't embarrass you Zhang, just sell it to me at the price. I took the land and immediately threw silver to let people build a simple house, implement the stables, and solve the problem of food and lodging, what do you see?" Lord Zhang got up after hearing the laughter and said: "Then this piece of land is your Guyan Mansion, and I will come to go through the formalities after you get married, I still have a bunch of official business to be busy, I will go back first, and I will come back to disturb you again in the Mid-Autumn Festival, and ask for a cup of wine to drink." After Master Zhang left, Tianxiao left immediately for fear of causing the unhappiness of these foreign officials present, and they also sent golden gold, white flowers and silver to the Guyan Mansion very sincerely. Therefore, he also had to spend some time with these officials, and he exchanged pleasantries with them for a long time before leaving.

Fortunately, the seven brides all live in the Lonely Goose Mansion, which saves the worldly trouble of marrying the woman's family, and also saves a lot of trouble. As the wedding day approaches, the seven families of the woman's family at this time have also arrived at the Lonely Goose Mansion one after another, and fortunately, the bride has her own carved small building in the backyard, with eight side rooms, four lower rooms, one in the guest hall, and an independent kitchen, so it is convenient for the mother's family to eat and live.

Geng Feng's family came to more than forty people, and his in-law Zhao Tietou also mixed in, bringing a total of 300,000 taels of silver. Twenty sets of wedding embroidered clothes, marrying the old slave Geng seven, Geng eight, Geng nine, Yahuan Rongrong, Qingqing. Maybe because of the death of Luzhou Ba and Old Man Mo, Mo Fu is still holding a grudge against the son of Jinyi, so Mrs. Mo came alone, marrying the old slave Mo Xiu and Yahuan Jinniang. There are also few people from Xiulan's family. One is that the Mughal Empire was too far away. The second is that his father Akbar had just conquered most of the territory of Afghanistan and needed to rule. Third, the fighting in the northern part of the Deccan Plateau was not very stable, so only Akbar, three relatives, and thirty retinues came. Fifty barrels of exotic wine were brought. Two elephants. Three leopards, three lions, eighty rubies. A barrel of perfume, and the maid Messa, as a dowry for her daughter Ballace Shag. Qingyun's mother's family seems to be all here, in addition to parents, four brothers, four sisters-in-law, five sisters, four brothers-in-law, and a sister-in-law, there are also two uncles, three uncles, two aunts, four uncles, and more than 20 juniors, crowded so that they can only lay on the floor. In addition to her mother, three brothers, three sisters-in-law, twelve juniors, and her uncle's family, Jasper used ten high-grade BMWs, fifty silks, and 250,000 taels of silver as a dowry, which can be said to be wealthy. In addition to her parents and brother and sister-in-law, Xiao Fei'er's family also came to Qi Zhongtian's family, young and old, and took the restaurant and inn opposite Guyan Mansion and 800,000 taels of silver as a dowry, which is also a big face. There were also a lot of people from Lang Na Gege's family, and Nanlongtou brought thirteen wives, twenty-seven children, and more than twenty seven aunts and eight wives, as well as two envoys from Nurhachi, and as a result, the floor was crowded with people. But there are many people and dowries, 200,000 taels of silver, 5,500 taels of gold, 10 boxes of rare treasures, 50 boxes of leather goods, maid Liduo, Snow Lotus, Gu Li, 2 house slave stones, 3 Yang, 25 high-quality horses, 100 wild camels, 100 strong oxen, 500 fat sheep, in exchange for a "Abba" from the boy in brocade, and he was so happy that this Nanlong's head laughed out loud in the middle of the night, feeling that it was too worth and too face-saving.

In terms of family background, Lao Jiu Qingyun was the worst among the seven ladies, but Tianxiao spent the most energy on her. Since returning to the Lonely Goose Mansion, Tianxiao has always been busy with the Li family's predicament, and secretly stuffed his mother-in-law with 50,000 taels of silver tickets, and repaired a letter for people to go to Dolan City to hand over to Basang to discuss cattle and sheep, leather goods, and gold mining transactions. Today, the prefect Zhang sent it to the door himself, and Tianxiao also did a favor and ate all the more than 2,000 acres of land outside the city, so that the Li family could move first, otherwise how would this family live in the future. Besides, the Qi Yue family is both shrewd people, and they also know the current situation of the Li family, if the Li family doesn't do something to do, then the Qi Yue family will sooner or later become famous, knowing that it must be Tianxiao who stuffed a lot of money into the Li family in the dark, and if the ladies don't make trouble, then this Lonely Goose Mansion will not be peaceful again.

Tianxiao plunged into Qingyun's building, went upstairs into the main wing, and saw that the bed was covered with colorful wedding clothes, Qingyun was letting his parents, brothers and sisters, sisters-in-law, sister-in-law and brother-in-law wear which sets of clothes to wear during the wedding banquet, seeing that her husband suddenly broke in, she thought that something had happened again, Qingshan Town's Liaodong Five Monsters always made her feel palpitations, and hurriedly asked: "Is there any demon again?" Tianxiao shook his head and hugged Qingyun and said to her father Li Song: " Dad, you also saw it, Qingzhou City was crowded with people, and there was nowhere to eat and live with silver in their arms, and there was no place to tie horses. Mr. Zhang had just come, and I took the opportunity to eat the official land outside the city, which was about 23,400 acres. A merchant is a businessman, Li Song had already heard the taste, and hurriedly asked: "Then what do you mean?" Tianxiao said: "Dad, take 30,000 or 40,000 taels of silver from me, which is considered a gift from me to your family." Qingyun's mother listened and said, "This is not good. You gave Yunyun 204,000 taels of silver tickets before, and a few days ago you stuffed me with 50,000 taels of silver tickets. Tianxiao smiled, shook his head and smiled: "Mother, you are not as strict as you think." Then he said to Li Song: "Dad, you ride my BMW out of the city immediately, there is a bamboo field eight miles to the south, you will transport all the bamboos and green bamboos there, and immediately recruit people to set up a simple shed." Let the second brother buy 800 beds, and the third brother buy 800 sets of bedding, and this temporary inn will be there. Well, I can't build a building in this hurry, and the customers will run away when I finish building. Then set up a stall, the eldest brother-in-law will buy hundreds of sets of tables and chairs, and the second brother-in-law will buy dishes, chopsticks and plates. Big brother, if you go to buy wine, you don't have to worry too much, but I'm afraid that it won't be enough. Dad, find the sixth master to get the silver, let the steward Shi do the other things, and the man in charge and the guy immediately asked Meishan to go to Qingshan Town to find it. Look, can this business still be done?" Li Song has been thinking about how to make a comeback all day long, where to borrow silver and two as capital, and now the sixth son-in-law has put the business in his own hands in a word, and it is clear that the Li family will take the opportunity to make money, this kind of gratitude is indescribable, so he hurriedly asked the second son-in-law to take the abacus he carried with him, and asked Tianxiao with a smile after pulling it out for a while. "Do you estimate, how many people can't find food and shelter?" Tian Xiao estimated in his heart: "Dad, right now, if not more than two thousand, there are seventeen or eight hundred, but people are still coming to Qingzhou City." Li Song nodded and smiled, patted Qingyun's face and said, "Good girl, now it seems that he is most distressed by you, you can't forget today's incident." In order to catch up with business, he hurriedly took his son and son-in-law away, and then called his second brother, three younger brothers, two sisters, and four uncles, and said Tianxiao's thoughts like this. These are all relatives who rely on Li Song for food, and they are naturally happy to hear it, and they all say that the Li family finally has a good son-in-law. (To be continued......)
