The red building is so arrogant

Chapter 322 Bowling Hou's Mansion [Part [-]]

But he said that a group of people had arrived at Shi Xiangyun's boudoir.

Seeing Jiao Shun, Shi Xiangyun was taken aback for a moment, then quickly pulled Shi Teng away, and asked with a blushing face, "I told you to take Brother Jiao around, why did you bring him to me?"

Because she heard that the elders were arguing in the flower hall, she felt very ashamed, so she asked her cousin La Jiaoshun to come out and wander around, so as not to embarrass the historian.

Unexpectedly, Shi Teng promised well in person, but turned around and led Jiao Shun here.

Shi Teng shook his head and broke away from his sister's pull, and asked with a playful smile: "Apart from sister, what else is there for brother-in-law to see?"

"you!"

Shi Xiangyun raised his hand to strike, but Shi Teng had dodged and hid behind Jiao Shun, pulling his eyes and pinching his mouth to make a grimace.

Shi Xiangyun was so angry that he wanted to stomp his feet, but seeing Jiao Shun secretly sizing him up, he had no choice but to suppress his anger, and gave Jiao a blessing in a generous way: "My brother is so naughty, I made Brother Jiao laugh at me. "

Mrs. Wu glared at her son, and said in hindsight: "I just said that girl Yun can't do such a thing—Brother Teng, hurry up and review your homework!"

Shi Teng agreed, and reluctantly took two steps outside, then turned back suddenly, pulled Jiao Shun's sleeve vigorously, motioning him to lean down and speak.

Just as Jiao Shun was about to bend down, Shi Xiangyun guessed what his cousin was thinking, and immediately said: "Auntie, Brother Teng said he wants to get a musket and follow others to hunt bears!"

The hopeful expression on Shi Teng's face froze for a moment, and then he turned around and ran outside without even thinking about it, shouting, "I'm going to review my homework, please don't bother me to improve my studies!"

Seeing that the brat seemed to fly away, Shi Xiangyun greeted the three aunts to take their seats, and asked someone to move Zhang Xiudun for Jiao Shun, separating the two parties far away.

When the servant girl served tea, Wu Shi and Shi Shi were about to rush to speak, but Madam Zhongjinghou made a connection first: "My natal nephew, Wei Ruolan, I heard that he has some friendship with Changqing, but I don't know if it's because of that. True or false?"

It turned out that Mrs. Zhong Jinghou was Wei Ruolan's aunt, and Shi Xiangyun was hired by Wei's family in the original novel of Weidao.

Jiao Shun nodded slightly at her, and said with a smile: "Little nephew just had a drink with Big Brother Wei, but he never heard him talk about this relationship. When we meet next time, I'll punish him for a few drinks."

Mrs. Wei wanted to speak, but Mrs. Baolinghou hurriedly said, "This capital city is big and small, and there are relatives everywhere around the corner. What's so strange about it? Let's go first." Say it's important!"

As she said that, she turned to Shi Xiangyun who was standing beside her, and said with a smile all over her face: "Girl Yun, I wish I could keep you by my side, but your uncle is always afraid that I can't take care of him alone, so before he takes office, he wants to send you to The old lady lives there for a long time, you see..."

"Xiangyun!"

Before she could finish speaking, Shi hurriedly interrupted: "You are grown up now, you should think more about yourself, now that there are so many gossips outside, moving to Rongguo Mansion at this time, wouldn't it be a blow to the wind and waves? ?!"

As he spoke, he pointed to Madam Zhongjinghou at the side: "Although your third uncle's family is in a bit of trouble now, they are close relatives after all, unlike Rongguo Mansion, which is separated by a floor, and the daily care must be more comprehensive— ——If something is really incomplete, I will never forgive your third uncle!"

As he spoke, he slapped his chest so toweringly and tremblingly.

Hearing what the two said, Shi Xiangyun was in a dilemma. From her heart, she naturally preferred to live in Rongguo Mansion for a long time.

But what my aunt said was not without reason.

Seeing that Shi Xiangyun was hesitant to speak, the two sisters-in-law started arguing with each other, and gradually lost their sense of proportion to Maimang.

Shi Xiangyun didn't hear right, glanced at Jiao Shun in embarrassment, quickly stopped the conversation and said: "My aunt and aunt ignore Brother Jiao, but what are you doing with these gossips? Where am I, I can't write two words in one stroke." History comes!"

The aunt and sister-in-law were startled to lose their composure, but they refused to lose their momentum.

Shi sneered: "You are a good girl, but it's a pity that other people don't necessarily think so. Employing people forward does not require others to look backward-you know my aunt, and I have never been the one who loves to calculate, but I just can't stand it." leisure!"

She is not lying.

The one born by the Shi family has a similar image to Xiangyun, and his temper and temperament are also seven to eight percent similar. Although Bao Linghou was self-defeating before, she was pushed out to do something wrong, but she didn't mean to press for debts. .

Unexpectedly, it was so easy to force her husband to calm down, and turned his head to the door to show his heart to his brother and sister-in-law, but Shi Nai and his wife acted like they were guarding her against the wolf, making it clear that the horses and horses were going to renege on their debts.

Whether or not the creditor asks for it is one thing, but what is the reason for the debtor to put on such a posture?
Shi Shi annoyed Baolinghou and his wife because of this, so he started a fight with Zhongjinghou.

Hearing her sarcasm, Mrs. Wu hurriedly retorted: "You are a good girl, but it's a pity that other people don't necessarily think so. They are like black-eyed chickens who fight for the benefits-we can't control it, but the old lady is still there. Well, you just need to live with the old lady, who would dare to make trouble when you see it!"

Seeing that the two aunts and sisters-in-law were about to start a fight again, Shi Xiangyun was angry and anxious for a while, but it was not easy to get angry in front of Jiao Shun, and his eyes were red with aggrieved eyes.

At this time, Jiao Shun suddenly stood up, first gave Shi Xiangyun a calm look, and then said in a loud voice: "There are some things that my nephew shouldn't be talking about here, but I want to ask the elders to help me go into details." That's fine too."

The three aunts and sisters-in-law all looked at Jiao Shun with different expressions.

Jiao Shun didn't hide it, and said straight to the point: "My nephew has been thinking about it recently, and found that the post of Consul General in Europa actually has a lot to do - the year before last, Wuxi invaded our sea area, Bingfeng went to Jinmen ! Later, although the imperial court returned troops to the southeast, it was only an overseas enclave of the other party, and it was still a hundred and eight thousand miles away from its homeland."

"That's why His Majesty has stated more than once that after the imperial court's navy is rebuilt, it is necessary to go to Usyan, our country's prestige—but how is it easy to travel thousands of miles away? If you are not familiar with the hydrology and geography along the way, it may be dangerous and difficult to march rashly. Measurement.

"Nowadays, we only see Western merchants coming and going. We merchants from Xia Kingdom set prices on the ground. We have never heard of merchants from Xia Kingdom going to Europe to do business. Even this time, Marquis Bowling can only take a Westerner's merchant ship to take up his post."

"What if the steamer ship is built without changing this situation first?"

"So in my opinion, we might as well take the opportunity of Marquis Bowling's appointment to formulate corresponding policies to encourage merchants in the southeast to conduct ocean trade. After arriving in Wuxi, the embassy will make overall arrangements and record in detail the hydrology and geography along the route and the local area. After the navy is rebuilt, Bingfeng can point directly at Wuxi!"

After Jiao Shun finished his long speech, the three women looked at you and I looked at you, but they all didn't understand.

All they thought about was Shi Xiangyun's betrothal gifts, so why would they care about the reconstruction of the navy and what the soldiers pointed at?
On the contrary, Shi Xiangyun thought about it carefully, and found out some tricks. He couldn't help standing up with his eyes shining, and said, "Brother, these words should be said to the uncles!"

Jiao Shun immediately gave her a salute, and said with a chuckle: "I should have told the uncles, but it's rare to see my sister, so I can't control my mouth for a while, I hope my sister will forgive me."

These words are actually quite frivolous, but Shi Xiangyun thought of the look he gave him before he opened his mouth just now, so he didn't know that he said these words to relieve himself?

Therefore, instead of feeling abrupt, it seemed like something was pressing in my heart.

She was busy and gave a deep salute, and said solemnly: "Brother Jiao devoted all his energy and wisdom to my family, Xiangyun can't thank you enough, why don't you forgive me?"

After a pause, he couldn't wait to order: "Cuilu, hurry up and invite the second master, third master and uncle together, and listen to Brother Jiao..."

"How dare you work for your elders?"

Jiao Shun hurriedly said, "Let me go and report in person."

Shi Xiangyun didn't force it, and even forgot about any taboos, and personally sent Jiao Shun out of the courtyard gate, watched him go away, and then turned back into the house.

As soon as they entered the door, Wu Shi and other aunts and sisters-in-law gathered around and asked Jiao Shun what he meant by those words.

Shi Xiangyun thought for a while, and said seriously: "Auntie and aunt should have heard about Bowanghou opening up commercial routes in the Western Regions in ancient times, right? According to Mr. Jiao, uncle's envoy to Wuxi this time can be compared with Bowanghou. Old things, open up a sea silk road!"

Seeing that the three women were still ignorant, she shook her head helplessly and said, "According to Master Jiao, when those wealthy businessmen go to the West to do business, the first person they need to call on is uncle!"

Now the three women finally understood that since they became the ones that the wealthy businessmen couldn't get around, wouldn't they be able to sit and wait for the big scale to share the money? !
Immediately, the Wu family seemed to be happy or something, and pulled Xiangyun to praise Jiao Shun as indeed he was capable and knowledgeable, and it was thanks to his wife and his wife's insightful eyes that they made the decision to allow his niece to him!
But she completely forgot that when she first heard about this marriage, she thought only that the other party was from a humble background and would normally give a generous dowry, so she insisted on accepting it.

And Shi Shi and Wei Shi looked at each other, and they didn't care about tearing her down, they both silently calculated what benefit this matter would do to their family.

【EMMM, I will make it up anyway...】
