Chapter 105 The Jiangnan Private Salt Case Extra Story Bai Xiaoyan Gathers Money to Find Her Husband ([-])
The summer of the 40th year of Jiajing came quietly.

"Got it, got it, got it..." On the sycamore tree outside Beizhen Fusi, the cicadas kept chattering.

Liu Dazheng, the governor of Beizhen, was on duty to give orders to the eunuchs under his command.

A school lieutenant came forward and reported: "The governor, there is a woman outside the door who claims to be He Liuye's wife. She said it's too hot, and she wants to send watermelons to He Liuye!"

He Liu, who was sitting at the lower head of Liu Da, was stunned: Wife?My wife, Xiangxiang, died four years ago!
Suddenly, He Liu thought of the woman he married in eight sedan chairs in the south of the Yangtze River—Bai Xiaoyan!

He Liu said apologetically to Liu Da: "The governor, I'll go to the gate of the yamen."

Liu Da laughed and said: "I heard that the sixth son married a beautiful wife in the south of the Yangtze River. It seems to be the goddaughter of the deceased Jin Laosan, right? Oh, it seems that the sixth sister-in-law knows how to love others. You go first Let's go. Don't forget to let us have a fresh taste of the watermelon! The weather is so hot that it makes the mouth dry."

He Liu came outside the yamen.Bai Xiaoyan was holding a basket in her hand, waiting for her.

The sun shines on her face, her face is so touching.A breeze blew, and her white dress fluttered with the wind.

He Liu looked at this woman and thought of Chang'e and Xi Shi in the opera.

"Why did you go to Beijing? You came to Beizhen Fusi Yamen to send me some watermelon..." He Liu asked.

Bai Xiaoyan said: "The concubine is the continuation of the sixth master who carried a big sedan chair to marry into the door. She worshiped the heaven and the earth! Why can't the concubine come to the capital to find the sixth master?"

He Liudao: "Didn't I tell you? If you really follow me, it will be like a pig taking over your good cabbage! Didn't I give you 1000 taels of silver, just find a good man in the south of the Yangtze River and marry him! "

Bai Xiaoyan smiled wryly: "I am Jin Wanguan's goddaughter. Jin Wanguan has been selling salt in Jiangnan for so many years, and he has offended countless people. Does Liu Ye think those people can make me feel better?"

Bai Xiaoyan is quite proficient in talking nonsense with her eyes open.Who would dare to touch her "Mrs. He" in Jiangnan now?
Bai Xiaoyan obtained Jin Wanguan's property deed, bank notes, and store accounts from Sifang Teahouse.Those industries and shops are all over Jiangnan.It took her several months to travel to 28 counties in five prefectures in the south of the Yangtze River.Through the local yamen, all these industries were passed under the name of He Liu!
Although these industries are obtained by Jin Wanguan reselling salt.But he "died of sudden illness", not beheaded for sin.These industries are not dirty.It is not considered a dirty property, so it can naturally be transferred and traded.

In addition, Bai Xiaoyan pulls the tiger's skin to pull the banner, claiming to be the wife of the sixth master of Jin Yiwei.Who would dare to offend Liu Ye in Beijing from the magistrates and magistrates of the yamen in various places in the south of the Yangtze River!They opened the door of convenience for Bai Xiaoyan.

Within a few months, there were dozens of businesses in the south of the Yangtze River, and tens of thousands of acres of mulberry and tea gardens were all under the name of He Liu.

In a few months, the officials in the Jiangnan officialdom also knew about Bai Xiaoyan, the "Mrs. He".

With the title of "Mrs. He", who in Jiangnan would dare to seek revenge from Bai Xiaoyan?Who is tired of work and dares to provoke that "mad dog" He Liuye from Beizhen Fusi?

Officials in the south of the Yangtze River all know Zheng Bichang, the former governor of Zhejiang, Yang Jinshui, the former chief eunuch of the Municipal Bureau, and Zhang Jin, the former secretary of the Nanjing household department. . . .Those people with prominent official positions are tied together, and they have never fought He Liuye, the Fusi of Beizhen!

Bai Xiaoyan lied in front of He Liu.

He Liu thought for a while, and believed Bai Xiaoyan's lie: She is a weak woman, if she is really alone in the south of the Yangtze River, maybe a seventh-rank sesame official can make her survive or die.

He Liudao: "Okay. You go back to my house first. Let's make a long-term plan. My house is..."

Bai Xiaoyan smiled: "Master Liu, that is our own home. How could I not know where it is?"

After speaking, Bai Xiaoyan handed the basket containing watermelon to He Liu, turned her head and left.

He Liu took the basket and went back to Liu Da's room.

Liu Da rubbed his hands: "The watermelon is here. Come, brothers, quench your thirst first."

Li Zipian, the eleventh, and Zhao Ci, the twelfth, surrounded him.

"Oh, our sixth sister-in-law is really considerate! I put ice in the basket! This watermelon is so sweet!" Elder Eleven Li Zipian said.

Elder Twelve, Zhao Ci stretched out his hand and said, "Brother Eleven, give me a piece!"

Li Zipian slapped Zhao Ci: "Don't stretch your claws, you finished the autopsy last night, haven't you washed your hands yet?"

Several people are eating watermelon.Liu Dao: "I'm talking about the sixth son. After you got married in Jiangnan, the brothers haven't seen the sixth sister-in-law yet! One day you set a table for wine at home, and we will go to meet the sister-in-law."

He Liu replied with a thoughtful "Oh".

After leaving the business, He Liu returned to his small courtyard.

In the yard, Bai Xiaoyan was hugging Xiangxiang, looking at the goldfish in the water tank.

He Liujia's water tank was always empty.It seems that Bai Xiaoyan bought the goldfish.He Liu frowned: Judging by her posture, it seems that she really wants to live with me in this small courtyard.

Bai Xiaoyan kissed Xiangxiang's little head: "Look, how beautiful this goldfish is!"

Xiangxiang's answer startled He Liu: "Mother, can this fish be stewed in soup?"

mother?Xiangxiang actually called Bai Xiaoyan "mother"?
This little guy Xiangxiang is actually very nice to serve.As long as you give her delicious food, don't let her call Bai Xiaoyan "Mother", even if you ask her to call Bai Xiaoyan "Grandma" or "Grandma Grandma", she will agree.

Bai Xiaoyan smiled sweetly: "Silly Xiangxiang. This goldfish is for viewing, not for eating."

Xiangxiang pursed her lips: "Hmph, fish that cannot be eaten are not good fish!"

He Liu coughed, "Cough."

Bai Xiaoyan turned her head: "The master is back? The meal is ready! I'm just waiting for you to come back! Let's go to eat."

"Okay, mother." Xiangxiang replied simply.

He Liu followed Bai Xiaoyan and Xiangxiang to the kitchen in embarrassment.

Several delicate side dishes have been placed on the table.

Xiangxiang "bajibaji" was full of oil: "Mother, it's delicious!"

Bai Xiaoyan's success in capturing Xiangxiang's stomach is equivalent to successfully capturing her heart.

We finished our meal.He Liu said to Xiangxiang: "Xiangxiang, you go out to play. I have something to say to your sister Bai."

Xiangxiang flashed a pair of big eyes: "She is not my sister! She is my mother!"

After talking, Xiangxiang bounced and left.

He Liu asked Bai Xiaoyan: "Miss Bai, what are your plans for the future? Since the south of the Yangtze River is not safe, I think it's better for you to live in the capital. Find a house, and I'll find you a good family..."

Tears fell from Bai Xiaoyan's eyes: "Sixth Lord, you brought me in a sedan chair eight times, and then you worshiped me and entered the bridal chamber. Do you want to deny it now?"

He Liu was about to cry: "Miss Bai, we entered the bridal chamber, but I didn't do anything, did I?"

"You didn't do anything! Others would think you did everything!" Bai Xiaoyan glared at He Liu and said angrily.

He Liu looked at Bai Xiaoyan, and suddenly felt that a pretty woman even looks angry - so pretty.
