Ten days, how is it possible?
Brother Rong shrugged his nose, thinking to himself that he was not a little Teddy. At most, one leaf has five thorns, just like the red maple leaves in autumn.
Baochai said politely: "Although I don't understand the major affairs of the court, I asked a lot before entering the palace. Brother Rong, please don't stay too long when you go to Zhen's house. You are now by King Zhongshun's side. Man, the Zhen family, the president of Tirenyuan appointed by the Supreme Emperor, becomes more and more dangerous the closer you get."
"It's easy." Brother Rong laughed and gently scratched Baochai's nose. There was a sense of powerlessness in his heart.
Embodying benevolence, embodying benevolence, does the Zhen family embody the benevolence of Emperor Guangxi, or the benevolence of the current Emperor Xiande?
The Zhen family served as the eyes and ears of the Supreme Emperor and the powerful ministers of the Southern Kingdom. Although his official position was under the governor of Jiangnan, his power was above that of the governor of Jiangnan, and he could even control the recruitment and release of local officials in Jiangnan Province. Just like Duan Lang, who was promoted to a local magistrate in Jiangnan Province, the Zhen family was involved.
If it is said that the Jia family formed a party for personal gain, it is still difficult to find evidence; but if it is said that the Zhen family sold their official positions and gained titles, it would be accurate to accuse them. It just depends on whether the person in the palace wants to touch him or not. However, the Zhen family and the Jia family are so close that they are inseparable.
Seeing that he was dishonest, Xue Baochai yelled: "Don't make trouble."
Brother Rong took Baochai's little hand and put it on his body. The best thing about this girl is that her body is warm and soft. Holding it in my arms, it feels like an extremely soft and comfortable warm water bottle.
He said: "I should have come back after paying the money from the Zhen family, but I can't stay in the city for a long time. There are still many things to do in the kiln factory. After tonight, I won't be able to see my treasure for some time."
Baochai was very unaccustomed to such a boring name. She stood up a little and glared at him: "Brother Rong, you should just call me Aunt Bao. You won't be allowed to call me by my nickname until you tell your mother."
"How reluctant are you to part with a nickname?" Brother Rong patted her, feeling a surging emotion in his heart, and he saw the surging scenery.
Baochai put his hands on Brother Rong's shoulders, turned his head away, and chuckled. "Why do you always like to push your limits? Maybe you will call out some weird nicknames in the future."
"It is a man's nature to push beyond the limits, and it is an innate ability." Brother Rong chuckled. I sighed in my heart, but it was a pity that I was not a superman, only half a foot tall at most.
well……
Xue Baochai's face turned red with embarrassment after hearing his nonsense. He said angrily: "I changed the subject before I said a few words. Do you want the shopkeeper of the Xue family to help your Jia family?"
"I want it, I want it, I want it more," Brother Rong said repeatedly, "How can I not want it anymore? Without the help of the shopkeeper of Bao'er's family, Jia Chang and Jia Ling would not know how to buy."
Xue Baochai said leisurely: "The Rongguo Mansion only sent a letter asking you to withdraw the money, and I didn't ask you for the purchase. It's none of Brother Rong's business, so why should you be so concerned about it? Although the two houses are one family, they are not really What’s the difference between the two families?”
Baochai is the best at weighing pros and cons, but unfortunately she is sometimes not very humane. Brother Rong smiled bitterly, which was why he was in trouble. If he says he doesn't know about it, it doesn't matter what he does. Now that I know it, it is wrong to just watch Rongguo Mansion lose money, but it is also wrong to have a mother's heart and meddle in other people's business.
Seeing his hesitation, Xue Baochai said calmly: "Since the Rongguo Mansion has calculated the list of thirty thousand taels, all the money has been spent. Since we have asked Brother Rong to make the decision, why not let the Rongguo Mansion do the job and save money?" I have taken care of other worries. You asked me to borrow some manpower, and just ask the shopkeeper of the Xue family to go to the comprador, and Jia Chang, Jia Ling and others can accompany you."
Brother Rong smiled and said, "Bao'er is easy to calculate."
Xue Baochai was scratched by him, and he said with a playful smile: "The Chinese New Year is coming in a few months, and we can't let them celebrate the New Year or go back. They have been doing hard work like shopping in Jinling. Our Xue family is in Ziguang, Jiangnan Road. Naturally, it will be more thoughtful than those headless flies. I will find two reliable shopkeepers. If there is a large balance, I will temporarily charge it to the kiln until now. I will pay it back with gifts when the Rongguo Mansion is happy. "
Uncle Rong laughed, Baochai's idea was exactly what he wanted. "Hao Bao'er is indeed a good strategist. I thought so too. That's why I invited you to come and borrow the help of several shopkeepers from the Xue family."
"Someone has done the purchasing work. Naturally, they each received twenty taels of carriage fare to return to Beijing. At least the trip was not in vain. Even if we didn't pay the carriage fare, they, the workers, took the purchase back to Shenjing. The master and his wife in the mansion Can you still give them a reward?"
Xue Baochai smiled proudly. But suddenly she saw Uncle Rong hanging his head and staring at something with confusion on his face. She said with a shy face: "It's the underwear designed by Brother Rong. I... improved it and asked the tailor in the shop to make it specially."
"Good improvement!" Brother Rong let out a burst of laughter, so that the underwear will be used in future generations. No wonder I always felt something was different about Baochai today. I thought it was her second growth, but I didn’t expect it to be...
He said: "Don't wear anything that is too tight. My dear baby is still young, so wearing it too tight... is not good anyway."
Xue Baochai lowered his head with a cry, his face filled with clouds. He said lightly, "Did you learn this from heaven?"
"That's natural. For the health of Dayan woman, I studied a lot when I was in heaven."
"Pooh!"
"Haha... uh..." Brother Rong fumbled with his inquiring hands, his eyes blank. "How do you solve this thing?"
Xue Baochai snickered. She could bear his teasing in front of her, which made her ears turn red and her heart skip a beat. Seeing him looking at her now, with a look of confusion and confusion on his face, he actually felt a little amused in his heart.
When Brother Rong saw that Baochai ignored him, it was worth lowering his head and reaching behind his back to explore. However, he still found that he couldn't untie it. This thing... is really annoying.
It’s no longer cute, and it’s no longer surging.
The more anxious he became, the messier his hands became, but he couldn't find a way to untie it.
My head dropped lower and lower, and I almost couldn't breathe.
At this time, Jia Rong could hear her heart beating faster and faster. It was beating loudly, as if it was about to burst out of your throat. It's so embarrassing, I was just bragging. result……
Slap in the face.
What a slap in the face!
Um?
Brother Rong suddenly stopped and listened carefully. There were two beating sounds. It's very clear, very clear. It was like it was in his body, blood, and ears.
I wanted to continue listening, but suddenly I felt a sense of suffocation.
He quickly raised his head and took a few deep breaths. Wiping the sweat from his forehead, he smiled awkwardly. "that……"
Baochai blushed and scolded him, "Brother Rong called me here just for something like that?"
"Of course not." Brother Rong's expression suddenly became serious, and he said sternly: "We just discussed the first important matter, and now we have to discuss the second important matter. Believe me, I have no evil thoughts, I just want to Look what Baoer’s improved little underwear looks like.”
Xue Baochai gently patted Brother Rong's hand away and got up from his arms. The pink cheeks are getting more and more blushing, and the face is like a peach blossom. Her white and tender little hands gently unbuttoned the plate, and then took off the yellow rosewood chair where the goose-yellow dress was hanging.
Uncle Rong only saw a beautiful scenery, and his pupils could not help but dilate.
The small goose-yellow clothes cover the crystal clear skin, and two round cotton ropes hold the clothes on the shoulders of snow-white muscles. He was afraid that the two ropes would not be able to bear the weight and would suddenly break.
"We're getting closer, let me take a good look at where there is room for improvement." At this moment, he kept Baochai's goodness in mind, and said with a smile: "The clothes you wear close to you must be particular about the fabrics, and don't let the coarse cloth It hurt my baby."
"The Indestructible King of the Great Village"
Xue Baochai slowly approached.
Brother Rong's eyes were too focused and moved up and down. He is absolutely attentive to what he does and is never distracted. Because of this, my blood is boiling at this moment, and even the turbid air in my mouth feels hot.
There was a burst of laughter in the room.
In the early morning of the second day, Baochai asked the time and became even more anxious.
Xiao Queer, who had been listening to the storm all night, looked at Baochai on the bed with resentment and asked in confusion: "What is missing?"
Xue Baochai put on her skirt and shirt and said angrily to Brother Rong, "Where did you throw that thing?"
Xiaoque'er didn't know why, but seeing Baochai's true face for the first time, a feeling of extreme inferiority suddenly arose in her heart. I sighed to myself, no wonder the uncle likes Miss Bao, she must be good at giving birth.
It's a pity that Xue Baochai is in a hurry to find something, so he doesn't understand her thoughts. Urgently urging: "Quickly find a goose-yellow coat. There is also... a piece of goose-yellow cloth with three sides."
The three of them searched the room for a long time before finally getting Baochai dressed neatly. She had only been wearing new-style underwear for two months, but she didn't feel at ease when she sat down next to Sister Feng. It seems that there is always a cold wind blowing in from the trousers, making the body feel chilly.
Jia Rong led Jia Chang, Jia Ling and others to Zhen's house. Although the Zhen family tried every means to persuade him to stay, Rong Geer shied away from his busy schedule and came back to chat later, and left in a hurry without staying too long.
On the other hand, Jia Chang, Jia Ling and others followed behind but hesitated to speak.
Bu Guxiu asked: "Uncle Xiao Rong plans to ask the shopkeeper of the Xue family in Gusu to help?"
Brother Rong raised an innocent smile on his face and said: "That's what I think. Having the shopkeeper of the Xue family in Gusu to help me is naturally much better than being confused. Things will be much easier to handle with one more familiar person, Xue We are all relatives at home, so we don’t have to worry about passing it off as good or cheating.”
"this……"
Shan Pinren was speechless for a moment, his hand stroking his beard stopped in mid-air. I worked so hard to follow along, do you think the Xue family will intercept this good job? It's a job worth 30,000 taels of silver. Not to mention the benefits of getting a few thousand taels per person, it's also reasonable for each person to get a thousand taels of carriage fare.
Now that the Xue family has intervened, the cost of a thousand taels of carriages and horses is gone.
Shan Pinren was heartbroken, extremely heartbroken. He gently covered his chest with one hand, feeling extremely uncomfortable. He pressed his dry old mouth hard, his beard trembled slightly in the wind, and said bitterly: "Uncle Xiao Rong is kind-hearted, and it is natural to trust relatives. But all the people in the Xue family's affairs are hired shopkeepers. Manager, these people may not recognize the relationship between the two houses. There is no need to trouble the Xue family to come forward for this trivial matter."
Jia Rong knew that these people had good plans. He asked Uncle Rong to go to Zhen's house and pay the money with a check, but they used the money to buy things, and made a lot of profit by the way. How dare they think of such a beautiful thing.
Since I have troubled him, Uncle Rong, he will take care of this matter first. If there is really a lot of money left, just follow Baochai's advice and wait for the Rongguo government to hold a celebration and pay it back in kind. In this way, his trip was not in vain, and the Rongguo Mansion was not at a loss either.
As a result, Jia Chang, Jia Ling, Bu Guxiu and Shan Pinren were not happy.
Aunt Zhao's two sons, Zhao Tianliang and Zhao Tiandong, who followed behind, were not happy either, but they did not dare to show any emotions. If it were anyone else, the two of them, as second master Lian's milk brothers, could still talk to each other, but when facing Uncle Xiao Rong, they could only hide behind and pretend to be mute.
After all, Jia Ling was young and had a bit of a temper. Said: "Every errand has been done by the Xue family, isn't our trip in vain?"
Jia Chang and others did not agree with Jia Ling's words, but they all looked at Brother Rong, agreeing with this statement.
Brother Rong smiled calmly and said: "How could it be in vain? As Shan Xianggong said, the Xue family are relatives, but the shopkeeper of the Xue family may not recognize this relationship. Therefore, during the purchase, the brothers and husbands must be careful to guard against the shopkeeper of the Xue family. Buy back the defective products. This purchase is for the sake of my wife’s marriage. No matter whether the girl or the musical instruments and accessories are treated casually, I must at least be worthy of the thirty thousand taels of silver."
After hearing this, Bu Guxiu and Shan Pinren felt their tongues taste bitter. Does Mr. Xiao Rong mean to spend all the thirty thousand taels? This... doesn't leave any money for the carriage fee.
Jia Chang and Jia Ling felt even more aggrieved. If they had known better, they would not have gone to the kiln to invite Brother Rong. Being fined in a kiln factory is considered a trivial matter, but being criticized by someone from the inspection team would be embarrassing. After taking such a trip, I didn't reap the benefits and felt aggrieved.
Why did you come all the way from Shenjing?
Now they are asking a few of them to supervise the shopkeeper of the Xue family. They don't have any money, so what are they supervising?
Seeing the gloomy expressions on everyone's faces, Jia Rong comforted them and said, "Why do you have such expressions? After this matter is done, can you still refuse the reward when you return home? If you are worried, we will also give you a carriage fee after the purchase is completed."
"this……"
Jia Chang and Jia Ling hesitated. Bu Guxiu, who was behind, agreed first and said, "Thank you very much, Uncle Xiao Rong, for taking care of me."
"You're welcome." Uncle Rong chuckled. "It's a long way to go to Suzhou, and there is so much gold, silver, and money. With the Xue family traveling together, we can take care of each other."
Shan Pinren asked: "Uncle Xiao Rong, don't we go together?"
Jia Rong shook his head and said: "There are too many official duties, so I can only entrust the purchasing matters to others."
When everyone heard this, they were secretly happy. Thinking that as long as Jia Rong didn't go, they could still do something about the purchase. Jia Chang and Jia Ling also came to their senses and quickly agreed to the errand.
Jia Chang Zhengyi said: "Brother Rong, please don't worry. We will supervise the purchases made by the shopkeeper of the Xue family and never let anyone steal anything."
"I'm relieved because of Brother Chang's words." Brother Rong nodded slightly, but there was a hidden meaning in the smile on his lips. He hoped that these guys wouldn't be too disappointed in the end.
