Ninefold Purple

Chapter 232 Visit

The next day just after dawn, Gu Yu left the British government residence, told the coachman: "Go to Jing'an Temple Hutong!" and then jumped into the carriage.

The coachman didn't dare to neglect, and drove all the way quickly, and within half an hour, he arrived at the entrance of Jing'an Temple Hutong.

Gu Yu jumped out of the car and saw a bean curd seller at the entrance of the alley. Because it was Qingli, there were only two or three porters sitting there.

He sent the people around him to the alley of Jing'an Temple, found a cleaner bench to sit down, ordered a bowl of bean curd, and ate it leisurely.

After a while, the bean curd stand became lively. [

When the stall owner was busy, he sneakily greeted two women who were standing in front of the stall drinking bean curd: "Sister Liu, why are you and Sister Wang going to sell vegetables together today? Are there any customers at home?"

"That's right!" One of the women in a lilac-colored vigilante laughed, "Today we invite people from Quanfu to our house, and we want to set up several tables for banquets."

According to the etiquette, to marry a daughter-in-law and a daughter at home, you have to invite the helpers, the hairdresser and others to the house for a drink a few days in advance to show respect.

The stall owner kept moving, laughing and gossiping with the woman: "It was really lively when the fifth lady of your family came out of the cabinet! It is said that she was invited by Mrs. Hanlin of the Imperial Academy to be a Quanfu person. I don't know if the fourth lady came out of the cabinet this time. Which wife is the Quanfu person!"

"Naturally, it's also Mrs. Hanlin from the Imperial Academy," the lady laughed, "but this time I invited Mrs. Zhao's family—Master Zhao and our lord are from the same department."

"This rich family is different," someone next to him said, "If you marry two daughters within a month, you will have to pay four to fifty thousand taels of silver, right?"

The two women smiled and remained silent.

Someone started coaxing: "Sister-in-law Liu, just tell us! I heard that Master Dou donated 1000 taels of sesame oil money to Jing'an Temple for marrying his daughter this time, right?"

The woman smiled and said, "How do I know? I'm just a servant on the stove. You have to ask the steward of our house about these things."

Another person said: "Why haven't I seen your senior officials these days?"

The woman said: "I greeted the senior officials before I went out..."

Gu Yu lost a piece of silver, quietly left the bean curd stall, found the carriage at the Hu side gate of Jing'an Temple, stepped forward and took off the clothes of the driver: "Wear it for me for a while." It didn't matter that the driver only wore a pair of clothes. Sitting on the shaft of the car with a face full of embarrassment in a thin coat, he went straight to the back door of Dou's mansion. With the help of two personal guards, he turned into the backyard of Dou's house, and quickly found the east wing where Dou Zhao was resting.

Dou Zhao almost stayed up all night, and didn't close his eyes until the sky was slightly white. At this time, he fell asleep and went back to the cage to sleep. Not only the wing room, but also the maids and women in the upper room walked on tiptoe, not daring to make a sound.

Gu Yu took out his pocket watch and glanced at it.

It's the third quarter of the first day.

I haven't woken up yet at this time, so it can be seen that I am a lazy person!

Gu Yu snorted coldly, put the pocket watch in his arms, and continued to stand motionless behind the pomegranate tree behind the wing.

The sun gradually rose, and there was movement in the east wing.

Su Xin brought a bowl of bird's nest porridge to serve Dou Zhao, smiled and helped Dou Zhao tidy up the quilt, and said: "Do you want to sleep again? There is still more than an hour before lunch!" [

Sitting on pins and needles, Dou Zhaoru couldn't sleep, and told Su Xin: "Go and invite Manager Gao, I have something to ask him."

Su Xin went away in response and invited Gao Sheng over.

Dou Zhao asked him: "Father always knew that he was not good at taking care of common affairs. These things were entrusted to third uncle or to you. Shengyinlou was not well-known that day, and no one had ever heard of it. Even if father wanted to Give me something quietly, you can use an excuse to gild the body of the Bodhisattva in the Zen temple or something, and take the money out of the account. How could you think of investing in the Risheng Silver Building? Why don't you persuade me? ?”

He happily lowered his eyebrows and smiled pleasingly: "That day, the shopkeeper Zhang of Shengyin Building found the master repeatedly. The master said that he is a man of work, and he found our house through Mr. Yan. He doesn't look at the face of the monk or the face of the Buddha. I took some money and sent him away. Just happened to encounter the matter of the young lady, so the master invested a large sum of money in it. However, the shopkeeper also took the master's money. In three or five years at most, the Risheng Silver House will definitely be done. Speaking up, although I dare not say that the master will take back all the shares, but the master's share capital will never be lost."

Dou Zhao heard that the tone of joy was also in favor, thinking that this person was born in white, and dared to use his wealth and life to block the king of Liao. It can be seen that he is also a hero, and it is no problem to make his father and Gao Xing surrender.

She said to Gao Xing: "The other two shareholders of Risheng Silver House are my father's colleagues. My father took out 5 taels of silver in one bite. If it is spread, it will attract people's attention. I am afraid that someone will come to ask my father to buy a share in the business. Master Guo is not good today, Master Zhao is not good tomorrow, and he offends others. Although there are 5 taels of silver in the family, I think it is impossible for my father to move 5 taels of silver to the shopkeeper in one go. The bank notes are guaranteed by the Bank House." Having said that, she took a happy look.

Gao Xing hurriedly said: "Miss is wise. It is Tongde Bank, which often deals with our family, who guarantees it. It has been agreed that the account will be received within fifteen days. Originally, the master wanted to wait for the matter of Risheng Bank to be settled before telling Miss. No Thinking of the fact that the master just got the shareholding contract and told the lady..."

Dou Zhao's forehead was sweating.

If my father hadn't drunk a little too much today, if she hadn't yelled that uncharacteristically, my father might still be secretly complacent in his heart, and he wouldn't tell himself until the money was in Risheng Bank's account, right?

She said: "Then you tell the Tongde Bank that this money should not be transferred to the Risheng Bank for the time being. Then go and explain it to the shopkeeper Zhang. There are two happy events in the family, and the uncles in the family are both born." He is prominent, he can’t spare a penny on things on the scene, he doesn’t have enough money now, and we won’t know if there will be any money for him tomorrow spring until the end of the year. Let him know clearly, for the Dou’s family to marry a daughter, for example, there is only 2000 taels of silver The dowry of Dou Ming and I is all from my father's private house. Although the Dou family is rich, the money is in the public house. If my father wants to use the money in his own name, he has to go through the third uncle."

If Zhang Zhiqi found his father just by chance, and met his father who took out 5 taels of silver in one go and didn't take it seriously, he would definitely send people repeatedly to persuade his father to give him the silver; The purpose must be to make friends with the ministers for King Liao, and his father had no money to give him, so he just took the opportunity to invest in a few more shareholders.

At that time, I will be able to judge Zhang Zhiqi's intentions.

Glad there was no doubt.

Many masters and young masters don't care about common affairs, and they don't know how much money is available at home. It's very common for them to owe a large amount of money outside and the family can't get it out for a while.He just felt that Dou Zhao's behavior had failed Dou Shiying's good intentions, so he was a little hesitant.

Dou Zhao was afraid of Dou Shiying's favor, but he insisted on investing money in Risheng Yinlou, saying: "Don't tell my father about this for now, I want to see what happened to Risheng Yinlou that day." If the people of Risheng Yinzi think that you are making things difficult for them, don’t say anything, just bring them to me, and I will deal with them.” Then I thought that Gao Xing is the most loyal to his father. If his father said something, he would definitely He acted according to his father's will, and said, "At the end of the year, when the provincial officials are reporting their duties in Kyoto, Cui Shisan got a big customer and agreed to lend 3 taels of silver to others this year. It’s ten cents more. Lend me the money first.”

She knew that she would tell her father about it when she turned around happily, and her father had always been generous to the sisters. If he knew that he would not only blame them unfairly, he might even ask her if she didn't have enough money, and let Gao Xing give her a penny.

I know I am happy, so I should be smiling.

Dou Zhao repeatedly told Gao Xing: "If people from Risheng Silver House come to beg you, you must tell me."

I was happy to reassure, and then I retreated.

Gu Yu, who was eavesdropping on the parapet, felt like his lungs would explode.

This woman not only intervened in the family affairs behind her father's back, but also gave loan sharks.

How could brother Tianci marry such a woman. [

No, he has to tell Brother Tianci about it!

No wonder Uncle Song hastily arranged this marriage for Brother Tianci.

Originally, I thought, if this woman is good-looking and has a dull personality, then I will be more dull. When I give birth to a son, I can just help look at it.Now it seems that he is a troublemaker!

3 taels of silver, according to her tone, it seems like 30 taels of silver, she looks like she doesn't know the price of firewood, rice, oil, and money, how can she be a person who can be the director of the family and preside over the middle donation.

Gu Yu didn't even look at Dou Zhao's appearance, turned around and left the House of Lords, rushing to the British government.

Song Mo was summoned into the palace.

He jumped up and down anxiously, going to the palace to find Song Mo.

However, Chen He pulled Gu Yu, and whispered, "It's Xuan's eldest son who came personally from Eunuch Lu who is beside the empress."

Could it be that the emperor's illness has occurred again?

Gu Yu was afraid that when he entered the palace, Princess Jingyi would drag him and cry endlessly, so that his aunt would teach him a lesson instead.

After thinking about it, he went to Yan'an Marquis Mansion.

Wang Qinghuai was talking to his father with the wedding invitation sent by the Song family, when he heard that Gu Yu was coming, he hurriedly welcomed Gu Yu into the study.

Gu Yu saw Zi's wedding post at a glance, and said, "You also know about this?"

Wang Qinghuai nodded, poured a cup of tea for Gu Yu himself, and said with a smile: "Hearing your tone, you didn't know until you received the wedding invitation." Then he complained, "Yantang is really true, we can't tell you even if we are married, I want to give it to you." It's too late for him to prepare a big gift, so I'm afraid he can only give more gift money."

Gu Yu sneered: "Don't give the gift money for now, I'll ask Brother Tianci first."

Wang Qinghuai probed calmly: "Why, doesn't Yantang know?"

How could Brother Tianci not know?

It's just that they don't know that the Fourth Miss of the Dou family is such a person.

"I went to find brother Tianci, he was summoned into the palace." Gu Yu said vaguely, "I haven't met him yet."

Wang Qinghuai smiled and nodded.

I understand in my heart.

This marriage is probably the British Duke's idea, but Song Mo doesn't even know about it.

I didn't expect the gap between their father and son to be so big.

Fortunately, I didn't marry my younger sister to the Song family, otherwise I would have eaten all my bones.

He laughed and said: "My sister is getting married on the fourth day of September, and you and Yantang will also come to have a drink at that time!"

Sisters, brothers, I wrote it at four o’clock in the morning, but there was a power outage, and the online card data was not enough...~~~~(》_《)~~~~ Just wait for the Internet cafe to open at dawn or find a way to recharge before posting up.

ps: I rubbed the network cable in Xiaozhizhi's school and finally posted it.

Here I would like to thank Xiaozhizhi's teacher, Sister Yin.
