Chapter 72 Getting Interested

The five-day family-visiting leave had passed, and in the morning the eldest and second house sent off the three sons, and Mao stayed in the mansion to raise the baby and wait for delivery.

Huayang left the mansion through the back door and went to the Zhaixing Building.

"I didn't expect Miss Hua's fortune to be so good. This year seems to be a rare scorching heat, which is more than 20 days earlier than usual. In a few days, the price of ice will increase."

Xiao Yan showed the tea ceremony gracefully, while Hua Yang desperately shook his round fan, his face was still a little sweaty:
"Why don't you use ice here? You have to make your own ice?" She felt strange.

But looking at the person in front of him, he was still wearing two layers of robes but not sweating.

Xiao Yan couldn't help laughing: "It's natural to be calm and cool, I've always been more resistant to heat."

Pushing back the cash share that Huayang handed over: "It's agreed, I'll be the owner of Miss Hua's voice from now on."

"How do you know I still have business?" Hua Yang was puzzled, as if he could read her mind very well.

"Isn't it?" Xiao Yan asked with a smile.

Not wanting to play charades with him, Hua Yang directly admitted that she really couldn't do such a big business by herself anyway: "I'm going to hoard coal now with the money I earn, but it can't be stored in the ice bank, it will be damp."

Xiao Yan's eyes lit up: "It's easy to say, I don't have any shortage of good warehouses under my control, and you will ask Pan Wei to come to Shopkeeper Xin when the time comes."

Hua Yang was curious, this person looked like a businessman, and it was definitely not a mere owner of the Zhaixing Building who could have such financial resources.

But I haven't heard of a rich merchant named Xiao in Da Zhou.

Moreover, the aura around this person did not have the shrewd smell of a businessman, but instead had an aura that she was familiar with.

A bit like Sima Jiao.

The noble air of the king.

Who is this person?

She didn't ask. She and this person were not even considered friends, they were just doing business together, and she might not be able to tell if she asked.

It's not necessarily true.

Under Xiao Yan's usual indifferent and alienated smile, she was also secretly surprised. This girl is very smart, not only because of this year's scorching heat, she can immediately think that this winter will be a century-old winter.

And he already had doubts about his identity, but he was able to press curiosity and not ask more questions.

He felt that he was becoming more and more interested in this girl, and he had shouldered this responsibility that he didn't want to bear since he was a child.

Never had what he really wanted, until he found out that he was interested in her.

Unable to bear the sweltering heat in the attic, Huayang went out of the Zhaixing Building, looked at shopkeeper Xin who was delivering to the door, and said, "Treasurer Xin, let the staff come to fetch ice every day from now on, the attic is too hot."

After looking at the attic again, he turned and got into the carriage.

Shopkeeper Xin also looked towards the attic, but the bottom of his eyes was full of torrents. Did the young master get too close to the granddaughter of Grand Master Hua?

Bringing Qingquan back to the mansion, Banxia hurriedly reported: "Miss, Luo Shi of the third room took Miss Ying and the two concubines to the old lady's place, and they have been crying for an hour."

This Luo Shi was still unwilling to settle down, and asked, "Have my mother and second aunt gone?"

Ban Xia shook her head, "Madam accompanied the Second Madam to the British residence today, and she went with a gift of thanks."

Hua Yang knew that it was because of yesterday's incident, so he reunited with Hua Yan and his second cousin by the way.

Going through three letters and six ceremonies, and setting the date of marriage, it seems that I will be dragged by my mother to see her soon, otherwise, the sister is in a hurry to get married before the sister is engaged, and it will not sound good to spread the word.

Thinking of Sima Jiao, the man said that he would come to propose marriage, but he didn't know if it was true.

If it really came, what would my grandfather's reaction be?

Shaking his head, he threw these thoughts out of his mind, and took Banxia and Qingquan to Cangsongyuan.

"Mother, it's my fault that I offended my sister-in-law. It was my greed that hurt Sanfang, but these children are also Hua's flesh and blood. Why are they so cruel?"

As soon as he entered the yard, he heard Luo's crying.

"If you have something to say, talk about it, don't bring your sister-in-law with you in everything." The old lady lost her temper after being tortured by her.

"Why can't we say that, we have neither established a family nor separated, so we just gave up the property in the mansion. My sister-in-law is so cruel that she doesn't send ice to the third room."

"Third Aunt, you said that my mother didn't deliver ice to the third room? Then I have to ask the servants, is it possible that the daily iceberg was swallowed up by the servants?" Hua Yang stepped into the main room.

Luo's howling paused, then he snorted, and took out his handkerchief to wipe his tears:

"It's really nice to say that there is only one iceberg per day, and the population of Sanfang is not enough. This year is another scorching summer, isn't this trying to kill these children?"

"Third Aunt, every house here is an iceberg. If you want more, you can use your own private house to add more, even Cangsong Courtyard is the same. Isn't it like this all these years?" Hua Yang knew Roche hasn't given up yet.

I want to ask for money by using ice.

"Previous years are previous years, and it wasn't so hot in previous years. In previous years, children in the third room didn't need so much ice. This year is different." Luo Shi stared at Huayang.

"The third aunt thinks that there is not enough ice, so she can just buy it with money, and it's the same with other houses." Huayang collected all the ice storage this year, and except for the common people, all other houses raised the price.

Including Washington, otherwise it would be easy to find out, and other officials and officials would make trouble.

"You sound good. Do you know how expensive ice is this year? It's already double the price compared to previous years. I heard that it will double in a few days. I don't have the money to buy expensive ice every day."

Luo Shi has long scolded Datong Trading Company in his heart, it is really too much, he controls the ice price in the whole capital, even if he wants to pretend to be a commoner to buy ice.

"Mother, you know the dowry of your daughter-in-law. If you don't want to save her, then let the children of the third room die from heat." Luo Shi began to play a rogue.

He didn't even look at Huayang, but just stared at the old lady and kept begging. Now the marriage between her natal nephew and Guo Yunxiang is impossible.

The elder sister-in-law of her natal family also wanted to see her, and Hua Zhenmin completely disliked her, if only she could ask for some money or part of the property from the old lady.

Seeing that Hua Zhenmin would still speak sarcasticly to her.

"Okay, okay, how much money do you want?" The old lady wanted to calm things down, and she also cared about the children of the third room.

Luo Shi's eyes lit up, and he pinched the handkerchief and said: "When the money is always used up, the daughter-in-law will not have the face to come and cry with you again and again, why don't you give us some of the property that was originally going to be distributed to the third room."

After finishing speaking, she still didn't forget to wink at Huaying who was beside her, and then pinched the two bastards hard to make them cry louder and more miserable.

Huaying understood immediately, and looked at the old lady pitifully: "Grandmother, look at what the elder sister is wearing, and then look at Ying'er, it's no comparison. If the third house has no family property, Yinger's dowry will be comparable to that of her sister in the future." It's too shabby."

She has been influenced by Luo Shi since she was a child, and she also hates Huayang and Dafang very much.
