late Qing Dynasty arrest

Everyone had a sumptuous dinner together in Baozhi's room. Li Guolou was tired from the journey and took his family away first.Li Guolou hugged Zheng Lingling, and the five of them squeezed into a carriage full of salutes.While joking, Li Guolou calculated the outcome of another matter.Unable to hold back, he said, "Grandma, your eldest nephew will come to dance the lion tomorrow, and you have one thing to tell him. Hu Xueyan opened the Hu Qingyu Hall in Hangzhou to the capital, and he opened many houses at once. Master Huang's treasure Zhilin's business has plummeted in the future, you let him change his career, and you pay the principal, it doesn't make much sense if the Dieda gymnasium is all sunset and yellow."

Chen Xiangfang said: "Who knows what a man thinks, Huang Qiying has his own thoughts, I can only talk about it, I don't know if he listens or not?"

Li Guolou said: "Xiaofang, your niece is about to give birth, and you always have to help. Chen Rou is in confinement for a month, what should I do here?"

Xie Xiuzhu said: "Isn't there still me? I'm fine with the daily purchases, and it's fine if someone fools me when cooking."

Li Guolou said: "In the future, I will let Mrs. Qian manage Baozhi's house, and let her earn more money. When the women in the family have money, they will speak loudly. Right?"

"To your head!"

Li Guolou's pigtails were pulled by three grandmas, causing him to grin his teeth in pain and beg for forgiveness loudly.Only Zheng Lingling helped the new father, arguing with the three mothers in a childlike voice.

After a while, Yelia asked: "Mike, Hu Xueyan said that the business he opened, Hu Qingyutang, was losing money. He spread the profits thinly, and opened a family to lose money. Is it true?"

Li Guolou said with a smile: "Don't listen to Hu Xueyan putting gold on his face. He is a big businessman and he will settle big accounts. Opening a cheap medical center store is guaranteed to be a loss at the beginning. But his family has a big business and support After passing this hurdle, now that it has scaled up, it will make a lot of money. Now that it has reached out to the roots of the imperial city, the business is getting bigger and bigger. The common people will know how black-hearted the doctor is when they go to Hu Qingyutang to see a doctor. Hu Xueyan opened a Hu Qingyu Tang offended all the doctors in the Qing Dynasty."

Yelia said, "Mike, do you think it's right for him to do this?"

Li Guolou said: "Huge profits will always pass away. Cheap medicine stores are the future trend. Chinese medicine will also be impacted by Western medicine. There will be more and more Western medicine hospitals opened by churches. Hu Xueyan is not so great. The model of his store is still The old-school way will still be eliminated in the future.”

"If you can't eat grapes, you say grapes are sour, Mike, you are a little fox." Yelia exposed Li Guolou's dark heart.

"Yelia, you underestimate me, am I this kind of person? Tell me, do you think I am this kind of person?" Li Guolou was a little impatient, and he underestimated his capacity too much. Didn't he accept the untimely feudal cancer of the system of three wives and four concubines?

"Yes!" Zheng Lingling also spoke out her heart this time. Li Guolou had to accept the fact that he couldn't see himself clearly, but others could see it clearly.

Chen Xiangfang said: "Xiaolou, you really figured it out. After a busy day today, I lost four recipes. My own."

"That five!" Li Guolou looked up to the sky and sighed, he knew who did the crime without counting.

Chen Xiangfang said urgently: "Xiaolou, there are a group of thieves in that store, how will the business be done in the future, just fire them, I'll go and talk to that bastard."

Li Guolou said: "Forget it, Xiaofang, the hands and feet of the people in the kitchen are also dirty, and people in the restaurant business will encounter this kind of thing. Tomorrow you give Wuyi a new job, who in the shop has dirty hands and feet." Clean it up, let him catch it, give him the title of captain of security, then Wu guarantees that he will be able to complete the task excellently."

Xie Xiufang said in surprise: "Small building, it's okay like this, it keeps thieves."

Li Guolou said with a smile: "You don't understand this. The yamen also does the same thing. It's called the lesser of two evils. Except for the few of us who don't take things from restaurants at home, that Yan will also take things to the house." Take it at home, that’s how human nature is.”

Xie Xiuzhu said: "Xiaolou, even if you're wrong, we'll take it, but it's just taken as a fair one. Isn't it Lingling?"

"En!" Zheng Lingling raised a pair of silver chopsticks in her hand, and took the tableware for entertaining precious guests as her own.

"The detective is deflated!" Yelia said.

"What kind of trouble do I have to go to! Baozhi's house belongs to Xiaofang and Nabazi, I just need to get back the principal, and I don't care about Baozhi's house in the future." Let go of the shopkeeper.

"No! You have to come tomorrow, and sit in it for me at noon to recharge, otherwise I don't know what to do." Chen Xiangfang ordered.

"Okay! Second Mistress, how can so many of us enter the door?" Li Guolou was a little worried. Although it was dark now, they couldn't see anyone.

Xie Xiuzhu sighed: "Xiaolou, I can't hide it anymore. I won't live here in the future. I don't care what the neighbors arrange for us. I just go through the front door. We won't go through the back door in the future."

Li Guolou pleaded: "Then can I go through the back door alone?"

At the gate of Wei's house in Dengcao Hutong, neighbors gathered beside the carriage to watch regardless of the cold. Some women squinted at Li Guolou.Some people greeted Xie Xiuzhu, and more people just looked at the people in Wei's house and said nothing.

Yelia asked in English: "Mike, do you want to send some smoked sausage to the neighbors?"

Li Guolou also replied in English: "Don't do it, they will throw our things on the ground, ignore them, and continue to pretend to be a lady."

Li Guolou and Yelia walked into Wei's house first, booed behind them.

"Broken shoes!" "Adult!" Some women shouted loudly.

The door of Wei's house was closed with a "bang", and the people here never interacted with each other.

It is still important to light three sticks of incense every morning and evening, and Li Guolou took the lead in offering incense to the deceased Wei Wenshao.Back in the living room of the inner courtyard, the whole family chatted in the warm room, talking about these days.

After Li Guolou had roughly finished talking about these days, Xie Xiuzhu said: "Xiaolou, that lame Zheng, bought 2000 taels of antiques at our Zhenbaoxuan, and told me that he has been washed in the gold basin, and he doesn't care what his subordinates do in the future." Yes, we will do business in the future.”

Li Guolou nodded and said: "People in the Jianghu always want to leave the Jianghu. He doesn't want to get lame on the other foot, so he should get away early. Jade is a lot of money. Zheng Zizi has figured it out, so he should go the right way."

Xie Xiuzhu said: "Xiaolou, Zheng Laizi said that he really wants to open a jade shop. He is afraid that his subordinates will come to eat him, and he has to support a lot of people, so he can only live in seclusion. I am not interested in working in the downtown area." To open a jade shop, everyone will pay half of the principal.”

Li Guolou said: "Yelia, if you are interested, you can do it with the second grandma. I am not interested in stones. I just wipe the dust and practice sitting exercises. I am not a good person."

Yelia looked at her palms and said, "Second Grandma, I know who you're asking, don't worry, we'll repay the Wanjia Bank's loan tomorrow, and I'll support this bank from now on."

Li Guolou and Xie Xiuzhu looked at each other awkwardly, and their dark psychology was exposed by Yelia.

Xie Xiuzhu stepped forward and hugged Yelia, and said softly, "Third Grandma is really a living Bodhisattva who saves the suffering. Our family promises to make a fortune in the coming year."

Zheng Lingling crawled into Yelia's arms, and flattered the rich as well, and said in a childish voice, "It's good that I have the third mother's hair."

The whole family burst into laughter, and Chen Xiangfang sighed: "Hey, it's still too early, more and more people will eat small buildings, and the current housekeeper is not good enough. We need to find a very fierce and fierce person, otherwise Sooner or later our homes will be cheated out by the poor."

Li Guolou looked up to the sky and sighed: "A very vicious, very vicious person, where can I find him? Could it be that I will find a cell boss to be a housekeeper?" He was joking, he didn't really know how to find a cell boss to be a housekeeper.

Chen Xiangfang had an idea, and said: "Hey, this is a good idea. Ask Luo Yunxia tomorrow and ask her husband to help us find a retired prison boss to be a housekeeper. Whoever comes to Xiaolou in the future will have to pass him first. If the poor still have to spend money to get in, they won’t come. The rich already know the rules, and they won’t take it seriously if they spend a little money.”

"This is not good? It will ruin your reputation." Li Guolou was a little worried and did not agree with this bad idea.

Xie Xiuzhu clapped her hands and said: "That's it. Now I know why the official concierge must collect money before they are willing to report. There are advantages and disadvantages. Otherwise, those who are fine will come here every now and then. I can't stand it. Now this is the Wei Mansion, and the old neighbors of the small building dare not come to bother them, and in the future, they will come to the store to talk about books when they have nothing to do, just like Baozhi’s house, I agree with the idea of ​​the eldest grandma.”

"Vote!"

Li Guolou knew that he had no right to speak in the family now, and the three grandmas were in business together. As long as he made an idea, the money would not pass through his hands.Men turn bad when they have money, and the three grandmas didn't give Li Guolou a chance to turn bad.

As soon as her daughter Zheng Lingling left, Yelia began to tell about her ex-lover Robinson Robinson, who sent someone to Li Guolou to fight Li Guolou.

Chen Xiangfang looked at Li Guolou's expression, curled her lips and said, "Xiaolou, you agree."

Li Guolou sighed: "In order to win the love of the female antelope, can I not agree?"

Xie Xiuzhu asked urgently, "What do you want to compare with?"

Yelia took out the battle card from her small bag, and said arrogantly: "Fencing, musket, Western boxing, let Mike choose." She is the most beautiful female antelope in the jungle, and the male antelope will kill all directions to get her. .

Chen Xiangfang raised her hand and said, "Let me guess, Xiaolou doesn't know fencing, he won't choose. Musket and Western boxing - musket is too dangerous, no one can be sure, and Xiaolou doesn't know how to choose, only Western boxing .Am i right?"

Li Guolou smiled wryly and said, "Grandma is right, I only have one choice. After the Chinese New Year, I will go to the French Concession in Tianjin once again, and have a boxing match with Robinson."

Chen Xiangfang asked: "Xiaolou, are you confident to win?"

Li Guolou said: "Fight it. Although Robinson Robinson used to fight in boxing matches, he is now 40 years old, but time is not forgiving, and the rhythm of his punches will be deformed. I can win as long as I maintain my speed, you guys do not worry."

Xie Xiuzhu asked: "Yelia, how is that Robinson Robinson?"

Yelia said, "Well, he's ten centimeters taller than Mike, so there's always a weight difference of seventy or eighty pounds."

"Ah!" Chen Xiangfang and Xie Xiuzhu stood up in fright, glaring at Li Guolou as if they were going to eat him.

In the room on the east side of the upper floor, Li Guolou was lying on the bed alone. The three grandmas didn't give Li Guolou a good look. It was the first time he slept alone at night.This Spring Festival he will be abstinent, and the three grandmothers want him to prepare his body early, and he will start practicing martial arts with Chen Xiangfang early tomorrow morning.Before defeating Robinson, he could sleep with a woman for three days at most, and even the time was limited, and it became more and more strict in the future, even sex life was not allowed, and the days of an ascetic monk were coming soon.

Li Guolou wondered which grandma would come?But he guessed all wrong, and he fell asleep alone.
