Chapter 263 Jin Xi Was Entrusted with a Heavy Task (Part [-])
"My lord, if you're not too happy to buy in Sun's Ji, and you're afraid that the items and designs of Sun's small grocery store can't meet your needs, then I'll go a long way and go to the place where you buy goods in the county town to buy for you. The shopkeeper is familiar with me, so I’m sure it won’t be more expensive than others, what do you think?”
The old Liangtou was relieved of his worries and was completely tempted. Without waiting for Liang Yulin to open his mouth, he clapped his hands and said, "Well, just follow what girl Xi said, and I will leave the purchase to you girl!"
"Father..." Liang Yulin opened his mouth unwillingly. Old Liang pointed at him and said, "From tomorrow on, you will follow me to the back mountain to cut wood. When the wood is ready, you will help your brothers and nephews. This matter, that's it! It's getting late, everyone should leave!"
……
Liang Yuzhou rested at Liang Yuzhong's house tonight. Before going to bed at night, Mrs. Sun brought neatly folded clothes to Jinxi's room. The desk was still lit. Jinxi sat there, flipping through a thick book thick scroll.
Sun remembered what Liang Yuzhong's family had come to tell her, so she pulled a stool and sat beside her daughter, looking at her tenderly.
Seeing Sun's appearance, Jin Xi knew that she had something to ask herself, so she closed the scroll and turned her face sideways. Under the light, her eyes were clear and energetic.
"Mother, what do you want to ask, just tell me." Jin Xi pursed her lips and said with a smile.
Mrs. Sun smiled slightly, then asked the question in her heart, and said: "During this time, you are not allowed to go anywhere, just stay at home. I will talk to you later about your grandma's purchases. Dad figured it out and thought of a way to push it for you!"
"Mother, is it possible that if Mao Shiba does not come to justice, I will not be able to go out for a day? That is not a long-term solution!" Jin Xi smiled helplessly, reached out to hold Sun's hand, and continued: "I know Mother is worried about me and is nervous about my safety, but mother, don't worry, let alone go shopping, you have to wait for the matchmaker on both sides to decide on the date of marriage. Dear friends, I opened the order and entrusted shopkeeper Zhang to go for a trip! Although I promised to give them the purchase price, if one of them is handed over, I will still make some money!"
The list of old Liangtou's purchases must be a long list of several, and nothing is earned.
Sun hesitated for a while, and said: "If it's according to my original intention, it's better if I don't pick it up. With your grandma, it's a matter of money, and it won't be smooth when I look back. There's no way to explain it!"
Jin Xi couldn't help laughing, she understood what Mrs. Sun meant, to put it bluntly, Lao Liangtou and Mrs. Tan were difficult to deal with, and she would rather not do their business, and just want to be quiet.
"Mother, our two views on this matter are different. I, to put it bluntly, am a profiteer. If I want to send it out, I will scratch everyone's head. If there is a business coming to the door, I have no reason not to accept it or make money. What's more, our family has three shops so far, but our grandparents have never done a single transaction in our shop, this time it will be considered as opening!"
Jin Xi sneered, before Liang Ji sold out, the daily necessities of the old Liang family were naturally taken from Liang Ji.After Liang Ji changed hands, the daily necessities of the old Liang family were all bought from the Wang shopkeeper in the village. The third son's family opened a grocery store, and the old couple never thought of taking care of the third son's business.On the contrary, every time Liang Yumei ran out of fragrant soap, Tan would beat around the bush and ask Liang Yuzhong for it...
Now, Jin Xi will naturally slaughter the fat duck when he gets his hands on it!
……
Changqiao Town, Magpie Bridge Alley.
The night breeze was blowing, sneaking into the house from under the propped up window, the air was filled with the faint fragrance of bamboo, diluting the smell of medicine and blood in the house.
Wending sat comfortably on the head of the bed, looking at the exaggerated bow on his right arm, with a slight smile on his lips.
Suddenly, hurried footsteps came from the corridor outside the house, and Wending looked away, only to see Fu Bo rushing into the house, holding a white pigeon in his hand.
"Young Master, I just received the Flying Pigeon letter!" Fu Bo said, handing over the pigeon to Wending.
Wending took the carrier pigeon, and deftly pulled out a rolled note from the bamboo tube under the pigeon's claws, glanced at the content written on the note, and his expression turned cold instantly.
"Master, what did it say?" Forbe asked anxiously as he stood aside holding the pigeon.
"The people we placed in Cuihongxuan were noticed by him!" Wen Ding said in a deep voice, thinking of the content on the paper, his face sank again and again.
"Miss Pomegranate has been silenced?" Uncle Fu asked in surprise.
Wen Ding shook his head, looked up at Uncle Fu standing beside the bed, and said coldly: "He didn't silence him, he chopped off the pomegranate's feet and asked them to put them in a brocade box."
Uncle Fu's face also turned pale, and he said in a deep voice: "His hobby is still so impressive! It's a pity that the line of pomegranate has collected a lot of useful information for us in Cuihongxuan in the past few years! Wait, young master, what is his idea of packing the jade feet in a brocade box?"
Wen Ding smiled coldly. He had been thinking about this question just now when he read the letter.
"His brocade box must be a meeting gift prepared for me! If my guess is correct, then at this moment, he may have followed us to the vicinity of Changqiao Town!"
Uncle Fu was always calm, but when he heard that the man was about to find this place, his face turned pale with fright, and he rarely panicked and anxious.
"Young Master, your guesses are always accurate. So what should we do?"
"In the ambush half a month ago, our side suffered heavy casualties. In order not to expose everything I have carefully laid out over the years, I have sent the most elite guards around me back to the mountain. Right now I am seriously injured, even if I hide around There are personal guards, but it is still difficult to compete with them." Wending thought.
"When I sneaked back to Changqiao Town, I thought I didn't leave any suspicious traces, but they can still trace back. But when you arrive in the town, you only need to bring my portrait and ask someone in private, and you will be able to find them soon. Queqiao Lane!" Wen Ding said, he was known by many people in the town as the nephew of the shopkeeper of Mingshan Pavilion.
"For the current plan, we only have 36 plans to go, first avoid his edge and then make a long-term plan!" Wen Ding thought.
"Young Master, I have a suggestion from this old servant. Your body is injured right now, so you are not suitable for riding a fast horse for long distances. Why not, let's temporarily hide in Jinji Mountain Village..." Uncle Fu cautiously suggested.
Wen Ding frowned, and instantly understood that Uncle Fu wanted to ask Miss Jin Xi to help him hide.Wending immediately shook his head and vetoed it. He just told her yesterday that if he didn't want to drag her into this troubled water, a man must do what he says. How could he go back on his word and lead the danger to the innocent villagers!
"I already have a place in my heart, you hurry up and prepare two fast horses, and let's go!"
Uncle Fu heard the words, no longer delay, turned around and prepared to go.Wen Ding pondered for a moment, then suddenly lifted the quilt and got out of bed, came to the desk, took out a pen, ink, paper and inkstone, leaned over to write quickly...
Soon, Uncle Fu was ready to rush into the house to report back, and Wending handed him two letters, saying: "Send these two things to Jinjishan Village secretly, and don't disturb other people, but please ask Miss Jinxi signed for it herself."
……
At night in May, the sound of insects came out of the window one after another.The rest of the family had already rested early, and Jin Xi was sitting at the desk by the window, burying her head in the pages of a book.Outside the window, the night breeze is blowing, and the first quarter moon is slowly inlaid in the dark blue sky, sprinkling the brilliance on the world.
Suddenly, there was a slight movement from the bamboo outside the window, as if someone jumped over the wall, Jin Xi raised her eyes subconsciously, and saw a figure standing outside the window.
Jin Xi was shocked violently, almost instinctively exclaiming, but unexpectedly the figure outside the window clasped his fists and bowed to her, and said in a low voice, "Miss Jin Xi, don't be afraid, this subordinate is here on the orders of the master. Give this object to the girl." After speaking, without waiting for Jin Xi's reaction, he threw the object through the window and landed on Jin Xi's scroll.
Jin Xi lowered her eyes to see that there were two letter papers with four large characters 'Xi'er Dear Parents' written on them, the handwriting seemed to be written by Wending.When Jin Xi looked up again, the person dressed as a guard outside the window had long since disappeared, leaving only a few sticks of bamboo in the corner, which were a little more swaying than other places.
Jin Xi breathed a sigh of relief, lowered the window, and opened the two letters to read under the candle.Brother Wen has never acted like this before, he acted so abnormally tonight... An ominous thought suddenly rose in Jin Xi's heart, and the movements in his hands quickened.
Soon, after reading the previous letter under the lamp in one go, Jin Xi was shocked, and immediately became more worried.
Wending stated in the letter that he would transfer all Mingshan Pavilion and its semicolon to Jin Xi's name.Although the business of Mingshan Pavilion has not been very prosperous in the past two years under the management of Wending's uncle Fang, but it can barely be regarded as the right way.Now, he has to leave here due to something, and the date of return is uncertain. In his letter, he entrusts Jin Xi with the full authority of Mingshan Pavilion.He only had one request, that is, he hoped that Jinxi would not easily replace those old buddies and acting shopkeepers in Mingshan Pavilion, because those people had been attached to Mingshan Pavilion for their livelihood for several years.
In the second letter, there was a contract for the transfer of Mingshan Pavilion. The content written on it seemed to be fabricated by Wending, saying that Mingshan Pavilion was not well managed, and it was transferred to the Liang Jinxi, the seal of the county government and Wending's signature were stamped on it.
Jin Xi looked at the contract in front of her and guessed Wending's opponent. If Mingshan Pavilion and her were found, this blatant transfer contract would help her to put aside any relationship with Wending, which was purely a business relationship.
And what really represented the identity of the owner behind Mingshan Pavilion was not the contract, but a red mud seal with a leopard head in the innermost part of the envelope!
Jin Xi put away the two letters properly, and put the stamp on her silver collar, wearing it next to her body to hide it.Sitting under the lamp, thinking about things intensely in her mind, the face against the light, she was shocked, worried, and after being entrusted, she felt the solemn expression on her shoulders full of responsibility, like a revolving lantern on her face switch back and forth...
