Yu Tang Golden Boudoir

Chapter 30 Each has a plan
"Only you and I know about this, and our boss knows about it. Don't worry, sir, Lao Wang is not a talkative person." The shopkeeper Wang simply agreed, Yuan Xiucai didn't say this, he would say it, the boss told him The money must be secretly sent to Yao Xianxian and Zhou Zhoulang. Since Yuan Xiucai said it first, it will save trouble.

In the small courtyard by the lake behind Qingfeng Building, shopkeeper Huang Er shook the tabloid in his hand, with a bit of worry on his face, looking at the fifth prince Qin Yu who was lying on the couch with his legs crossed and seemed to be sleeping but not sleeping, and said: " Unexpectedly, this Yutangchun show is getting more and more lively. Shopkeeper Min told me the day before yesterday that more and more people came to Qingfenglou to call for Yutangchun these days. He asked people to go to Qianchunfang to ask for some Yutangchun, who knows It is said that there is not even a bottle left, I think, if Qianchunfang pushes Yutangchun to come out in this year's wine competition, it is really hard to guarantee the number one of our Liuxia wine."

"Hmm." The Fifth Prince shook his feet with his eyes closed, and gave a specious 'hmm', and Huang Er shopkeeper went on to say: "Doesn't this lady of the Li family know that Qianchunfang didn't get a single Quyin this year? This matter Shopkeeper Zhao of Qianchunfang must be clear about whether he didn't tell his boss, or...something else happened? There is no Qu Yin, what's the use of spending all this time and money fighting for the first place? Qu Yin was taken by Wen Guogong's house I took it, even if Duke Wen's mansion planned to go back to Rong'an Hall a few years ago, this time it must be planning to go to the winery again, could it be that the Duke of Wen's mansion took action to compete for the first place in the wine competition?"

"It's definitely not in Duke Wen's house." The fifth prince closed his eyes and said lazily, "Wu Chenglin's intelligence is all in women, Ningguo." Damn, if she has this ability in business, why would she need to be so shameless to seize other people's shop?"

"Fifth Master is very right, but there is no reasoning for it. What if Li's wife wins the first place? I can't figure it out." The second shopkeeper Huang frowned, and the fifth prince waved his hand lazily: " If you can’t figure it out, don’t think about it. You’ll know after April? If you don’t have the first one, you’ll be gone. It’s not a big deal. Don’t worry, the winery will be in Ningguo’s hands, and it won’t take more than three or five years at most. Pay it off."

"Oh, it's a pity that this Yutangchun is here." The shopkeeper Huang Er regretted, the fifth prince raised half of his eyelids and glanced at him and said: "I really want to, Xun Ningguo will buy this Yutangchun when the time comes."

"It's good if I can buy it." Shopkeeper Huang Er shook his head helplessly and said: "This eldest princess, alas, I really don't know what to say about her. At the beginning of last year, Wen Guogong found shopkeeper Liu and said that there are some medicinal materials that are not used in the library. And a few prescriptions to sell to us, shopkeeper Liu picked Zhang’s pill prescription for throat disease, who knows that the eldest princess said that the prescription was a secret recipe in the palace, and it would sell for 50 taels of silver, and said shopkeeper Liu had seen it, It’s okay if you don’t buy it, this matter It’s still a useless thing in her warehouse.”

"Well, it's sticky and sticky and shameless." When it came to this matter, the fifth prince's face darkened, and he felt sullen when he thought of it. When he knew about it, the Duke of Dongyang had already pressured Duke Wen's mansion to settle the matter. No, he had to owe fourth brother a favor, and the fifth prince waved his hand annoyedly: "Then don't, what is there to regret about other people's things? Besides, there are so many regrettable things in the world."

"That's true." Shopkeeper Huang Er said with a good-tempered smile.

In the back garden of Duke Wen’s mansion, various kinds of precious peonies are placed in the upper room of the main courtyard. Princess Ningguo stands in front of a half-person-high flower stand, admiring with satisfaction a pot of half-bloomed deep purple and near-ink rare peonies. Lin Shushu leaned on the chair, stretched out his hand to grab a petal from an extremely gorgeous bright yellow peony on the table next to him, put it under his nose and smelled it, then threw it on the table, looked at his mother and said, "Shopkeeper Zhao!" He said that there were only thirty or forty jars of Yutangchun stored in the cellar, and he didn't dare to take them out, preparing them for use in our house. Shopkeeper Zhao also said that this year's new wine list was double that of previous years, and he procrastinated and confiscated them. The order money, I am afraid that if the order money is collected, I will let the little girl of the Li family take it with me, and he will not be able to stop it."

"He is sincere." Princess Ningguo moved to the side, changed a pot of peonies and said while looking at it: "I told you last time, I have to find a treasurer quickly, this one surnamed Zhao has used up a year Aunt told you, this kind of traitor to the Lord cannot be used for long, he can help us behind the back of the Li family, and he can also help others behind our backs!"

"Don't worry, Auntie, I've already found two or three shopkeepers, and I'll arrange them when the wine shop is available." Wu Chenglin was confident, and Princess Ningguo said with a sigh of relief: "Bring them all here for me to have a look, this shop depends on the shopkeeper. , people can find good things.”

"Ah Niang taught you a great lesson." Wu Chenglin flattered in a happy mood. Princess Ningguo admired several pots of flowers, took the handkerchief, cleaned her hands and sat back on the couch. Looking at Wu Chenglin, she said with a little emotion: "This Sister Tian, ​​like her grandmother, is a rare expert in housekeeping. Who would have thought that she would use this method to sell wine? However, this method is quite effective. Whether or not she knows how to do business is really a bit particular. Xiao Nizi, if there are children and grandchildren of the right age in the family, they can marry back no matter what, and this is bringing home a silver mountain."

"That's right, the family doesn't even have any similar descendants, and it's all my son's fault. A few years ago, concubines should have been spread out, so it wouldn't be as difficult as it is today?" Wu Chenglin extended Ningguo's regret to his own. Regrettably, even though there are thousands of women in his backyard, there are still too few.

Princess Ningguo let out a not-so-annoyed 'hum', Wu Chenglin frowned twice, and suddenly had a good idea: "Mother, I have a good idea, why don't I accept this little girl and forget it." , this silver mountain can’t get out at all!” The more Wu Chenglin thought about it, the more he felt that this method was perfect, and he heard that the girl was born very well: “That little girl had beautiful features when she was young, although I haven’t seen it in these years , with the foundation that I had when I was a child, it probably doesn't look too bad."

"You bastard!" Princess Ningguo's chest ached from Wu Chenglin's idea, and she took a long while to breathe. She pointed at Wu Chenglin and didn't know where to start scolding: "That little girl has such a heart, is it?" Can you live in it? You miss your home! Let me tell you, don’t make such useless ideas. No matter what, she is also the daughter of the Duke’s family. What do you mean by bringing her in? The temper of the family is the most disgusting and indulging in women. How many times have you beaten you? You dare to accept that girl, and you don't want to think about what the whole capital will be like. Let the officials know later, it is not a matter of kneeling at the palace gate Already! Get rid of this useless thought as soon as possible!"

"Let me just say, you can't do it if you say no. I don't feel sorry for Auntie. I don't want Aniang to work hard. You can't do it if you say no. This noble girl is like a piece of wood. It's the most boring. How can those young ladies be good? There are so many styles..." Wu Chenglin slipped his lips, seeing that Princess Ningguo raised his eyebrows again, he hurriedly waved his hands and said: "If there is nothing wrong with Auntie, I have to go out. If there is something important, my son is leaving." While talking, Wu Chenglin clasped his hands and took two steps back, turned around, took two steps out of the upper room and slipped away.

In a blink of an eye, it was the day when Yingxiang Pond opened the ceremony. Early in the morning, Lin Ke hurriedly drank half a bowl of porridge in the Nanning Prince's mansion, put down the bowl and said with a smile: "Mother, take it easy, I'm leaving first !" The voice fell, and the people jumped up and ran out, Princess Jiang hurriedly shouted: "You come back!" Lin Ke had already rushed to the door, one foot in and one foot out, and turned to look at Princess Jiang waving his hands Said: "Remember it all, first take Sister Tian to see Eldest Sister, Eldest Sister misses her, alas, it's getting late, Yaoyao will be ahead of me again, I'm leaving!"

Princess Jiangjun sighed helplessly, lost her appetite, stood up and rinsed her mouth, turned to the side room, leaned on the kang under the south window, took the tea offered by her confidant mother-in-law Bai Nanny, and took a sip Chatang sighed and said: "A Ke grew up like her aunt, but she didn't follow her heart at all. Look, they are so big and so rough."

"Second Sister's temperament is a blessing, Mrs. Lin's life is not good." Bai Nanny laughed, Jiangjun Princess gave a soft 'hmm', retreated from the crowd, and signaled Bai Nanny to sit down and talk. Mammy sat sideways on the edge of the kang, Princess Jiangjun said softly: "That girl Tian'er doesn't follow her appearance, but her heart follows her ten-tenths. I didn't dare to touch her too much about the matters of the Yan Mansion. I thought about it, but so many things happened in the year and the year, and what kind of Yutangchun drama happened here, I can't help but think about it."

"But." Bai Momo strongly agreed: "The matter of Rong'an Hall, no matter how you think about it, how strange it is, if it's a coincidence, it's too coincidental, and she performed the ceremony in Qingtong Courtyard, she's really courageous , I heard that everyone in Duke Yong's mansion dare not go to her yard easily, this matter of gods and ghosts... Amitabha, no one should respect, isn't the fifth lady afraid?"

"Well, it's because of these things that the more I think about it, the more I feel that this girl is not simple, she has a heart and courage, and she has a lot of money in her hands. Alas, who knows how much money she has, my aunt is so unpredictable, But this girl is also the same, I just think that Rong An Tang is her plan, but it is really unbelievable, it is too shocking, she is only fourteen after the new year! If she really did it, this She is so clever and scheming, she is a bit more powerful than my aunt back then." When Mrs. Lin was mentioned, Princess Jiang was in a daze for a moment, and then said: "It would be best for the Leng family to retire. I didn't like it at first. With such a scheming character and such luck, it would be a pity to marry into the Leng family."

"Speaking of this luck, this sister's luck is really good. Just after Mrs. Lin's funeral, the brothers of the Yan family did such a stupid thing, and they were saved by the fourth prince. This is really... I can't even find a lantern Good luck." Bai Momo sighed, "It would be great if Sister Tian had such good luck today."
