Yan Cigui.

Chapter 8 What kind of firecracker did you eat?
In the house, the oil lamp was dimmed.

Lin Yunyan was about to continue talking to Xiao Duan about her views on business when she saw Qingyan coming with a thin blanket.

Qingyan is the eldest maid in Zaishouyuan, as a child of the family, she has been highly valued by the Duan family these years.

Lin Yunyan didn't like her at all.

She hated to betray the master's things!

Once upon a time, after my grandmother fell ill, two maidservants who had been released from the mansion earlier pooled up some money and quietly sent it to my grandmother to ask for a doctor.

I can't afford the best medicinal materials, so I only have ordinary prescriptions, just for comfort.

Qingyan took the initiative to grab the medicine, and never returned with the money.

Although the amount of money was not too much, the one who did such a thing was a maidservant I trusted, and my grandmother couldn't stand it even more.

Lin Yunyan pursed her lips: This kind of person should be removed from grandmother sooner.

With a thought, she asked, "Sister Qingyan, is this blanket for me?"

Qingyan heard the sound, and hurriedly replied: "It will be a little cold at night, the princess used it to cover her stomach, this piece has only been exposed to the sun at noon, it is clean and soft."

"That's great, my sister gave it to me, I just need to cover my legs first," Lin Yunyan said with a smile, "It looks a bit dark in the room, can my sister dial it?"

A few words and everything is arranged.

Qingyan looked at Lin Yunyan's outstretched arm, and subconsciously passed the thin blanket over.

When her hands were empty, she saw Lin Yunyan covering her legs with a blanket. Qingyan blinked twice, oh, yes, she has to cut the wick.

Only then did Lin Yunyan continue talking to Mrs. Duan.

She didn't bother to suppress her voice either: "If the business makes money, I don't think it's worth it to ruin my family's fortune just because of the eldest sister's marriage."

A look of surprise flashed across Xiao Duan's eyes, and she said strangely: "I thought you sisters have a very good relationship..."

Such a good relationship, why is there a bit of disdain in the words?
"You want face, and I want it too," Lin Yunyan didn't hide the straightforward emotion in her tone, "Sisters who grew up beating up, how can you not be 'good'?"

This is too direct.

Straight to it, Xiao Duan seems to be wrong for a while.

Lin Yunyan continued to be nonchalant: "Eldest sister leaves the court, the dowry is less, you can't bear face. Just like what you said to your uncle, you are the first in Yun's generation, and you must have a good reputation. You are always in and out, and you treat elder sister very well." Beloved, it’s really less, not only Xu Guogong’s mansion is dissatisfied, but other old ladies who have a lot of contacts also see you as a joke.”

Xiao Duan's complexion turned pale.

She knew what others would say behind her back, even by raising her toes.

"It's not biological, it's just different."

"You pretend so well on weekdays, but when it's time for real money, will you reveal your secrets?"

"Hypocritical, not as good as those real villains!"

For someone who cherishes her feathers so much, how could she be reluctant to give Yun Jing a better deal?

"Your mouth," Xiao Duan nodded Lin Yunyan's lips in reproach, "Grandmother's kindness is so kind, I think you should be stingy."

Lin Yunyan couldn't stop laughing.

If she were to judge, grandma loves her face, but her sincerity towards her eldest sister is still six or seven points.

It's not for the sake of heart and lungs, but it's also cared about.

Knowing in her heart, Lin Yunyan still made trouble deliberately: "You really don't feel sorry for Yinzi? The second uncle left early, and the second room's daily expenses all come from the public house, but there is no return. I feel sorry for you giving so much dowry! But I I can also understand you, you want Eldest Sister to marry as soon as possible, so that Duke Xu's government can support Third Uncle."

The smile on Xiao Duan's face was almost unstoppable.

One's own situation, one's own knows best.

The Lin family is very harmonious, even if there is a little friction, if there is a few complaints in the heart, the matter will be over in a blink of an eye, and the dissatisfaction and discord have never been clearly displayed.

What kind of firecracker did this girl have today?
It's not like the baizi cannon, crackling and deafening, but like fireworks, colorful and overwhelming, it's dumbfounding!

She was really dumbfounded, for a while, she was not sure whether Lin Yunyan was telling the truth.

It's a far cry from the way things used to be!

Furthermore, in-laws support each other, which is too common in officialdom.

The same is true for the marriage between the two families, and the Xu Guogong's mansion paving the way for San Lang.

How did it come out of Yun Yan's mouth that they treated Yun Jing as a hot potato and sold it quickly for money?
It's ugly, it's so ugly that her old lady is too embarrassed to hold a wedding right away!
If it wasn't for his thin skin, Xiao Duan would have covered Lin Yunyan's mouth and said to her, "Little ancestor, don't understand the old woman!"

Lin Yunyan saw that Xiao Duan was sitting on pins and needles, so she winked at her: "I still have something to tell you secretly..."

Xiao Duan finally didn't have to listen to the "random understanding", and immediately cleared his throat.

Qingyan had already dialed up the wick, and after hearing the sound, she understood, bowed and backed out.

What Qingyan should listen to, she has already told her to listen.

Now, Lin Yunyan wants to say something that Qingyan shouldn't listen to.

"You said earlier that it would be difficult to make money in Honest Lane only doing the original rent-collection camp. I sound reasonable, but I have a business," Lin Yunyan kept her voice low even though there was no one else in the room. "I heard in the Compassion Ning Palace that Enke should be opened next year.

During the criminal record, the Ministry of Rites put forward the idea of ​​the government supporting the students, and the Enke will probably arrange accommodation uniformly.

This time, Shuntian Mansion took over the hot potato from Honest Lane, and they had to reciprocate courtesy and arrange candidates here. "

Xiao Duan's eyeballs rolled.

She did not doubt Lin Yunyan's news at all.

Although there was no rumor of Kai Enke outside, but with the empress dowager's prudence, since the old man mentioned it, even if it was not a certainty, it was almost inseparable.

And asking the yamen to collect money is definitely less worrying than collecting money from individual retail investors.

"Candidates take the exam for two to three months," Xiao Duan pointed out, "it's not a long-term business."

Lin Yunyan nodded: "So, the yamen won't stop you from doing other business at other times.

According to the old practice of previous years, Chunwei candidates range from more than a thousand to as many as three or four thousand, and about [-]% of them get the Jinshi.

There are 63 houses in Laoshi Lane, and the left and right side rooms of the main house are arranged, which can accommodate two to three hundred people. According to this ratio, there can also be thirty or thirty high school students.

After the list is released, beat the gongs and drums, and the common people will know that this alley has good feng shui and can be listed..."

Little Duan knows how powerful rumors are.

No matter what the facts are, everyone says that the honesty is prosperous in studies, and students who study in Beijing every year are willing to spend money to rent.

Those students who stay in the capital all year round are usually from wealthy families, generous spending, high rent, and easy money. They are accompanied by servants and mothers-in-law.

"Sounds good," Xiao Duan thought for a while, and then said, "However, if you earn [-]% in Honest Lane, you can also get [-]% in other places. If you start beating the gongs and drums, people will follow."

"Other places are collected by the yamen, and they are temporarily moved out for candidates to prepare for the exam," Lin Yunyan said. "Old Shi Lane has been newly repaired, and there is no old lease. If you like it, you can make an appointment, and you can move in on the same day after paying the money."

New, convenient, and hassle-free, it's on sale!
"Think about it, if there is a champion..." Lin Yunyan gave a thumbs up, "If you don't want to rent it out, there are people standing at the entrance of the alley with money."

　Thanks to book friends Xu Bicheng's official girlfriend, a certain fox, and Ning Xia Qianmeng for their rewards, and Xiaoxiang book friend Qing Yingying for their rewards.
