After a generation of doctors

Chapter 153 You are happy, help the Liu family

"That's a good idea." Xu Zihou narrowed his eyes, and there was a wretched smile on his somewhat simple and honest slightly dark face.

"You have to seize the opportunity this time, and if you mess up again, I won't be able to help you." Bai Yutong hurriedly urged.

Before she came to the capital, Shangfeng told her that she must support Xu Zihou to take over the position.

It stands to reason that Xu Zihou's literary and military skills are good, and he is shrewd and vicious enough, but for some reason, she tried so many ways to help him, but she still couldn't push him up.

Seeing that the time Shangfeng left her was running out, she could only resort to extraordinary means.

"Don't worry, I will definitely seize the opportunity this time." Xu Zihou also knew that this might be his last chance, and if he still couldn't do it, he could only follow the army to the frontier and start from a small leader.

"By the way, the Dong Yun'er you placed in the palace is said to be very favored, so why can't you use her strength?" Xu Zihou said dissatisfied.

"Hmph, that girl's heart has become wild after being favored now, and now she doesn't listen to my orders." Bai Yutong's face immediately darkened, and he said, "Sometimes she will beg me."

Seeing Bai Yutong like this, Xu Zihou knew that Dong Yun'er was out of action, so he focused the topic on Yu Zishan, discussed many details with Bai Yutong before leaving.

Lei Ming stood in the alley and watched Bai Yutong leave the house, and asked his subordinates to continue to follow him before going back to report to the master.

"Bai Yutong first went to the Chu Palace to find Princess Anyang, and then went to meet Xu Zihou. His subordinates were afraid that Xu Zihou would find out, so they didn't dare to go in and eavesdrop. But looking at her like that, I'm afraid they wanted to hurt Miss Yu."

Although that Xu Zihou was a bit profligate, he still had good skills, and they were all talking in the secret room, so it was useless to eavesdrop outside.

"Keep an eye on them, and if necessary, pull out Bai Yutong's minions." Xiao Jingchen said coldly. Originally, he wanted Bai Yutong to dance around for a while, but she didn't know what to do to provoke Yu Zishan. Necessary to stay too long.

"Don't worry, Your Highness, this subordinate knows what to do." Lei Ming nodded solemnly.

Yufu, Xiyun Courtyard.

Since the banquet ended, Yu Zishan stayed in the yard and did not go out.

Whether it was the opening of Gu's rouge and gouache shop or Tian's new dresses, she did not attend.

There is no way, the last time Anyang Princess came to make a big noise, and now everyone in the capital is discussing the topic of Miss Yu's dedication to Prince Bai's refusal.

Everyone's eyes were fixed on the Bai family, the Yu family and the Chu Palace, wishing they could watch a few more good shows.

Although everyone knows that the words of Princess Anyang cannot be believed, this does not affect everyone to discuss it after dinner.

Yu Zishan didn't want to add to other people's talk at this juncture, so she simply cultivated at home and prepared a new prescription for Xiao Jingchen by the way.

When she checked Xiao Jingchen last time, she found that the residual poison in his body had already started to be eliminated, and the dosage of the prescription had to be adjusted down.

But after getting the prescription, she didn't deliver it in person, but asked Ye Ling to send it away.

Hey, she really has no face to see Xiao Jingchen now.

Because Xiao Jingchen had just given her the hint that the phoenix spread its wings and be with her for a lifetime at Phoenix Villa, but in the end, the scandal of chasing Bai Yichen and being rejected broke out in the blink of an eye, it was embarrassing to think about it.

Although she tried her best to deny it during the banquet, but with Xiao Jingchen's methods, she can definitely find out that this matter is true.

For a man, especially a man who is proud and outstanding, this is simply a slap in the face.

Yu Zishan doubted whether Xiao Jingchen would get angry and drag her to the blacklist and then ban her.

She didn't dare to ask again, so she could only hide like an ostrich.

Gu Ling came in with a basin of freshly washed crystal grapes, and saw his young lady sighing again.

She couldn't help worrying, ever since the Anyang princess made a big fuss at the banquet, her own lady often sighed like this, with a troubled look on her face, but unfortunately she couldn't help to solve it.

"Miss, you haven't gone out for a long time, do you want a servant to accompany you out?" Gu Ling asked considerately, before, the eldest lady loved to go out, either to the Zhang family, or to the homes of some good sisters. Otherwise, it is the Yuwu Tea House, where people rarely stay at home without going out.

Yu Zishan glanced at Gu Ling, she knew that this maid was doing it for her own good, but how could she have the face to go out, so she picked a grape and stuffed it into her mouth sullenly.

Gu Ling immediately realized that she had said something wrong, and she quickly made up for it: "By the way, Miss, after the second lady's silk shop opened, I heard that the business is very good, and now the second room is full of joy every day, but Aunt Liu is so sissy. It must be done."

"Why is Aunt Liu so angry?" Yu Zishan finally raised some interest.

"In the past, the Second Household had a bad life, and everything depends on Aunt Liu's face. Now that the Second Household is getting better, she speaks rich and powerful, picks on Aunt Liu everywhere, and even goes to tell the old lady that Aunt Liu is hosting the ceremony. For so many years, life in the mansion has become more and more difficult every day, and it seems that they want to take over the affairs of Zhongfu." Gu Ling said.

"The life in this mansion is difficult, and we can't blame Aunt Liu entirely."

Yu Zishan said in good conscience that Aunt Liu supported Zhongjiu with all her heart, and the main reason for the poor life was that the old lady didn't know how to do business.

There are still several Zhuangzi and shops under the name of Yufu, but these Zhuangzi and shops have been engaged in a kind of business for so many years, without any progress, and the money they earn is only enough for the government's expenses.

But after Yu Tianyou became an official, he had to use money to cater to everyone.

The money cannot be used as Zhang's dowry, otherwise the Yufu will really lose face and throw it at home.

Therefore, most of the expenses of the Yu Mansion were given to Yu Tianyou to take care of it, and the days became tighter and tighter.

But these have nothing to do with Yu Zishan, her food and drink expenses are paid by the Zhang family, including Zhang's own dowry money, which has nothing to do with Yufu.

No matter how many money-making ideas she has, it is impossible to show filial piety to the old lady, because this will only make the old lady more proud, and then trample them under her feet.

"Miss, you are so kind-hearted." Gu Ling saw that the eldest lady was helping Aunt Liu, and he really felt that his master was really kind-hearted.

Yu Zishan smiled slightly and remained silent. If she was really kind, then Zi Lin Wan would not become her pharmacy.

While the master and servant were chatting, Yu Ziqi suddenly came over with an aggrieved expression.

"What's the matter, who provoked you?" Yu Zishan asked Yu Ziqi to sit down.

Ever since Yu Zijiao got married, no one in the house dared to offend Yu Ziqi, and it had been a long time since she looked so angry and wronged.

"Who else could it be? It's not the group of people surnamed Liu." Yu Ziqi said with red eyes.

"Surnamed Liu?" Yu Zishan slightly raised her eyebrows, only Aunt Liu and the old lady had the surname Liu in the Yu Mansion.

"It's Aunt Liu and the old lady." Yu Ziqi looked furious, she had never dared to call the old lady by name like this before.

"What did they do?" Yu Zishan had been staying in the yard for the past few days, so she really didn't know much about what happened outside.

Yu Ziqi turned to talk about one thing about Ling, "The Liu family came to spread word that Yu Zijiao is pregnant."

"Really?" Yu Zishan asked in surprise, seeing Yu Zijiao and Liu Caihua screaming and screaming all day long, she thought they would be like this for the rest of their lives.

"It's absolutely true, it was Liu Xiaoqing who came here to announce the good news in person."

When Yu Ziqi talked about Liu Xiaoqing, her fair face turned red with anger, and she cursed, "You don't know, that Liu Xiaoqing is so thick-skinned, he said that after Yu Zijiao became pregnant, the Liu family kept tight on her, and life became more and more difficult, and then she encouraged The old lady asked our two families to give gifts, saying that the wedding banquet was not held well last time, which made Yu Zijiao feel wronged. She wanted to hold a good one this time, but she didn't have any money. Our two families give presents, heavy gifts, so as to supplement their Liu family."

"She really has the face to say it." Yu Zishan's face also sank. The last time Yu Zijiao got married, Zhang's dowry of 500 taels of silver was cheated by them, which was not enough, and they even filled a shop to go in. It's a trick to get money.

"Isn't that right? The old lady actually agreed very much, saying that in addition to giving gifts to the Liu family, there is also a need to prepare for the New Year. Recently, there are too many things spending money in the mansion, so let our second room pay [-] taels for the public. [-] Two, the shops run by my mother can’t earn six hundred taels a year.” Yu Ziqi said excitedly.

It was during this period of time that their second room got better. Taking out six hundred taels of silver is equivalent to cutting flesh.

The most exasperating thing is that this money has to be used to subsidize Yu Zijiao.

They are all daughters of the Yu family. Yu Zijiao is just a concubine, and she is even more delicate than her concubine daughter. The old lady's heart is really too biased.

"The old lady is taking this opportunity to take a bite." Yu Zishan sneered.

The Yu Mansion has not yet separated, everything comes from the business, and the business cannot make ends meet, so the old lady is naturally anxious, she can't think of other ways to get money, so she fixes her eyes on the dowry of several daughters-in-law .

In the past, when Mrs. Zhang was rich, she focused on Mrs. Zhang, but now she didn't even let Mrs. Tian go. It would be embarrassing to say it.

"Yeah, my mother is going to die of anger, but there is nothing I can do. The old lady has spoken, and my mother dare not say anything."

Yu Ziqi looked at Yu Zishan pitifully, she ran over specially to ask Yu Zishan to help her find a solution.

"What's not to say?" Yu Zishan glanced at Yu Ziqi and said, "Tell the old lady directly, your mother just opened a silk shop, and the money is so tight that she has to help her mother's family. It’s okay if you don’t come out?”

Tian's silk and satin shop borrowed silver from Yuzishan, a total of 1000 taels, and the borrowed money was still in Yuzishan's money box.

At this time, Tian really couldn't get the money out.
