Chapter 34

Xiao Wanying gasped, as if a knife had been stabbed at the back of her neck.

"As expected of a national teacher."

Besides, she didn't know what to say.

"Xiao Shangshu's mansion has nothing to do with me. If Xiao Qianjin wants me to help you, then there must be more sincerity." The corner of the teacher's mouth raised higher, and his voice gradually elongated.

Xiao Wanying's eyes lit up: "The national teacher is free to speak!"

She expected the national teacher to be clever, but she didn't expect such a deep scheming.As long as he can make a move, Xiao Ning will never recover.

The national teacher smiled coldly and held out a hand.

"5000 taels?" Xiao Wanying was puzzled, this is not a small amount, it is really tricky for her alone.

"5 taels." The national teacher whispered, "Gold!"

Xiao Wanying's shoulders trembled in shock, 5 taels of gold, even the biggest wealthy businessman in the city would not be able to take it out casually.

"Xiao Qianjin's tea is good, and the wine is also good, I can drink it slowly." The national teacher then picked up the tea in hand, "You can think about it slowly."

Xiao Wanying's chest was like a beating drum, she didn't know that her face was as white as wallpaper.

5 taels of gold, even if you sell the private house, you can't get so much silver.For the authentic works of Taoist Qingsong, she had already sold off the gold hairpin jewelry, and the ones left behind were worth only 1 taels of silver at most.

"There are a lot of masters of the National Teacher, can you show your hand high. If the National Teacher needs help in the future, the Xiao family will do its best to help." Xiao Wanying's voice was a little trembling, but she had to bite the bullet and ask.

It is good to lose 1000 taels of gold.

The national teacher put down the tea that was delivered to his mouth, and knocked a little sound on purpose.

Although the voice was soft, it seemed like a heavy hammer to Xiao Wanying's heart.

"Xiao Qianjin has no official or job. If you encounter any troubles, you always go to ask Xiao Shangshu, your uncle." The national teacher whispered, "You came to me because you have already asked for help from him." Don't take advantage of it, if I'm in trouble in the future, what can you do to help me?"

Xiao Wanying was so choked up that she couldn't speak as if she had swallowed a stone.

"The Xiao family is different from the Xiao family. I don't know which Xiao family Xiao Qianjin is talking about." The national teacher sneered softly and shook his head.

No matter how glorious Xiao Wanying is, she is still a girl.No official, no job, it's just a beautiful vase.Uncle is the biggest official in the clan, so he will naturally ask him for anything, if he can't ask for it, they, the Xiao Clan, will all be in bad luck.

This remark was like a knife, severing Xiao Wanying's heart.

"Is it true that the national teacher can't hold his hands high?" Xiao Wanying's face was already a little desperate.

He is so calculating, he should know that she can't afford so much money.

"Of course you can raise your hands high, but I don't know if Xiao Qianjin is willing to listen to me." The national teacher raised his head, his eyes in the shadows were slightly strange.

"I still hope the national teacher expresses it!" Xiao Wanying heard that he was willing to let go, and her eyes lit up instantly.

"Jiangnan silk is famous all over the world, and one of the sons of the Hu family left a separate household and went to Beijing to expand the family business.

The year before last, I attended Xiao Qianjin's birthday banquet and gave you three luminous pearls from the East China Sea. "The national teacher said eloquently.

Xiao Wanying's eyes flashed, and she suddenly remembered that person.

The three East China Sea night pearls are each as big as a goose egg.If you put it indoors at night, you don't even need to light a candle.But last year, my father had already taken away the things and hid them somewhere, so she couldn't get them back.

"Mr. Hu made such a big deal. After Xiao Qianjin's birthday banquet, he even said that he wanted to obtain fame and fame. Guangzong is shining. Xiao Qianjin thinks, why does a young master with a lot of money suddenly want to be an official?" the tone of the national teacher Slightly lifted, slightly mysterious.

Xiao Wanying was also slightly awakened.

At the banquet at that time, Mr. Hu looked at her very differently.She just thought that she was so gorgeous that he couldn't help but watch more.

But thinking about it now, the meaning is quite different.

Most of the children of rich businessmen are arrogant and arrogant, and look down on officials who are tired all day long.If the young master of the Hu family wants to be an official, he must ask to marry a woman from an official family. Only when he is an official can he be in a good family.

This woman is probably Xiao Wanying.

"Most men in the world cheat money and sex, but this woman cheats people, as long as she uses the right method, she can catch her with her hands and she will be in every way." The voice of the national teacher was full of inexplicable temptation.

Xiao Wanying's heart moved, if it was Mr. Hu from the silk forging family, 5 taels of gold would be more than enough.

"However, Mr. Hu married a wife last year, so it would not be very convenient for me to come over as a guest."

If a man and an unmarried woman can be friends if they are not married, married women will inevitably be criticized.

"That wife was forcibly given to him by the family, and the two of them have long been in harmony. Mr. Hu sings every night, and often goes to the teahouse and wine shop, but the one he most often appears in is the Yipin Accord."

Yipin Yage is the most famous tea house academy in Beijing, where there are tea and books, and it is the favorite place for literati.After Hu Gongzi determined to obtain fame, he almost regarded it as his home and went there every day.

"Thank you for your advice, Master Guo, I will go to Yipin Yage tomorrow!" Greed suddenly flashed in Xiao Wanying's eyes.

"It's best to go tonight." The national teacher whispered, and looked up at the ceiling, "There will be a heavy rain tomorrow, this is a great opportunity, if you miss it, you don't know how long you will have to wait."

"Okay! I'm leaving now!" Xiao Wanying wished Xiao Ning would be unlucky, and she was also very excited when she heard that there would be a chance tomorrow.

The national teacher smiled evilly and took a sip of tea.

The night wind blows lightly, bringing a deep and biting chill.

Xiao Wanying took the carriage and soon arrived at Yipin Yage, where the literati often wrote poems until dawn.Many talented women in Beijing also like to come here, so no one will say anything when she meets Mr. Hu here.

She found an excuse to get close to Mr. Hu, his admiration was almost written on his face, and he didn't even blink his eyes when he looked at her.

Xiao Wanying shed tears while talking and laughing, and made up an unfounded cousin, saying that he needs a large sum of money as compensation, or he will have to go to court.

As a businessman, Mr. Hu knows that suing a lawsuit is nothing, as long as he is innocent, the government will naturally give him justice.But if there are relatives in the officialdom among the three clans, it will inevitably cast a layer of dust on the face of the relatives.

Even if he is innocent, it is possible to say that the officials escorted him through the back door, let alone if he is guilty.

The beauty spoke softly and shed tears, but Mr. Hu still relented and took out 5 taels of gold.

Xiao Wanying, who received the bank note, immediately sent the money to the National Teacher's Mansion.

This night, she couldn't sleep all night.

Looking at the dark and starless sky, waiting for the rainstorm that the national teacher said.

The next day, the sky was gray, and the sun was still not seen at Mao o'clock.

There was a bang of thunder, and the raindrops rushed down like sharp arrows, as if there were demons and ghosts in the world, and the gods were shooting arrows to surrender.

In just one hour, a lot of crops were washed away, and the stagnant water made it difficult for the people to move.The market was not open, and there was no one in the vegetable market, and there were complaints for a while.

"The day became really sudden." Xiao Ning listened to the noise outside the window, the raindrops were so big that they almost punctured the paper window.

"Yeah, it was sunny yesterday." Song Ading put on a piece of clothing, already feeling a bit chilly, "Thanks to Zhang Butcher's family who delivered the ingredients early, otherwise the restaurant would not have been able to do business for a day .”

Thunder roared, and the rain continued to increase.

"I'm afraid it's useless if it's delivered. Some people will come to order food in this terrible weather. Let the boys in the building rest for a day. The boys who deliver the food will pack three meals for them, and give them half of the usual amount." Send money." Xiao Ning didn't want to be that kind of black-hearted proprietress.
