Put down the marriage to that girl Su?
Wen Chuying looked at her husband with a smile and said, "Husband, do you know how much money it costs to buy a house like Su Mansion in Xiaotianshui Lane?"
"Our house cost 20,000 taels. I heard that their house is twice as big as ours, so let's just call it 50,000 taels."
Cao Zhan said, his voice a little hollow.
Fifty thousand taels is not something he can easily come up with now.
What's more, she is a child bride from a small place.
Wen Chuying smiled and stretched out two fingers: "Husband, it's not fifty thousand taels, it's this much..."
Cao Zhan's eyes twitched.
"It's not as much as I thought, is it?"
Wen Chuying nodded: "It's just as much as you think."
Cao Zhan called her "my mother" and thought, "She is a child bride, how can she get so much money?"
Even if it's stealing or robbing, you still have to have that ability.
"I also heard that this Miss Su started to look at the shops in Kyoto as soon as she came to Kyoto. Who is Cai Yazi? Even you and I are not special, but I personally took Miss Su to all the popular shops in Kyoto. ."
Cao Zhan opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.
"So your husband still thinks she is an ordinary child bride?"
After being shocked, Cao Zhan asked in a low voice: "According to what you say, madam, Gu Ziyuan's unmarried daughter-in-law is very powerful!"
"Let's see, not everyone is so superficial."
Wen Chuying said, turned around and went to the inner room. When she came out, she had a thousand taels of silver note in her hand: "Didn't Bai Fun Tower set up a gambling game? Husband might as well make a bet on this Miss Su." , can firmly sit in the position of No. 1 Lady."
"Ma'am, is this too much?"
Cao Zhan was shocked by Miss Su's wealth.
But it was only a moment of shock.
But he didn't believe that Su Yixin, a girl, could compete with the daughters of nobles in Kyoto and win.
Let's just say that Sir Xia Xunwei's daughter, Xia Xunwei, after passing the palace examination and the imperial list was posted, made a bold statement under the list that she wanted to marry this new top scholar.
At that time, Gu Ziyuan was talking to Chen Keming, who was second in the list. Xin Zisheng came out of the palace and ran away.
So I didn't see the grand occasion of being ranked down at that time.
If it hadn't been for this period of time, when Xia Song was impeached by the admonishment officials many times, and because of the uproar caused by the affairs of his wife and concubines at home, and was denounced by the officials, then Xia Xunwei would have chased him long ago.
In this world, men chase women across the mountain, and women chase men across the veil.
In addition, Xia Xunwei came from a good background. His father was once Xia Shuxiang, and now the revolutionary figure Fan Chongyan was promoted by his father's recommendation.
Even if Su Yixin could make money, it would be impossible for her to be as good as Xia Xunwei.
"If you ask me, this Gu Ziyuan will most likely marry this Xia Xunwei. As for Miss Su, it would be good to be a common wife or a noble concubine."
Su Yixin, who was not favored by Cao Zhan, was now wearing men's clothing, bringing Lian Qiu, who had transformed into a servant, and the colorful ice lotus, which had transformed into a human form, to the most prosperous restaurant in Beijing - Baifanlou.
Naturally, she also heard about the gambling game in Baifan Tower.
There was also a special betting game for the new top pick, so Su Yixin came over to take a look.
Look at the girls from other families and the people who fall in love with her.
"Sir, please come inside."
"Third floor, private room."
Little Zhouzi bent down slightly and greeted Su Yixin to the third floor with a smile: "It's a coincidence that our guest is here today. The private room on the third floor is usually full. It was just vacated."
"Really? It's better to come early than to come by chance."
Su Yixin changed her voice, and with the guidance of spiritual energy, she looked like a handsome husband to ordinary people.
After sitting down, Su Yixin asked the waiter to serve a pot of good wine, then ordered a few signature dishes, and then began to ask about the gambling game: "I heard that there are gambling games in the building, I wonder what they are?"
The gambling game is set up in Baifan Tower, and a commission is required.
Therefore, the more people participate in gambling, the happier the owner of the restaurant will be, but not everyone can get into this gambling game.
Little Zhouzi replied cautiously: "My lord, this game of gambling is not for ordinary people to play. Ordinary people can still eat, drink, and be happy."
"Are you afraid that I have no money? Or are you afraid that I am a spy for the government, here to stir up trouble?"
"Lang Jun, isn't this a joke?"
Su Yixin smiled and said nothing, and winked at Lianqiu. Lianqiu took out five thousand-tael silver notes from the purse at her waist and slapped them on the table where they were eating.
"Brother, I heard that there is a gambling game between Gu Ziyuan and his unmarried wife in Baifanlou. I am very interested. I wonder if I would like to introduce it to me in detail?"
Yes, of course I do.
According to his introduction, it would be beneficial for the guest officer to place such a big bet.
Qin Lian followed Su Yixin all over the country for some days. Su Yixin had blocked the people who coveted her. When she heard what the waiter said, she said angrily: "Listen to what I said, the one with the highest voice right now is Three, and the fiancée of the new number one scholar has no chance of winning at all?"
"Everyone with a discerning eye can see that today's officials attach great importance to this new champion, otherwise they would not make an exception and directly appoint him as a privy minister. This champion has a bright future, and the wife he wants to marry in the future will naturally be with him. It will be helpful in his career. I heard that his fiancée has some money, but no matter how much money she has, it can't be worth having a good father! If Gu Langjun values love, maybe she can become a noble concubine, and the position of the head wife will be Don’t think about it.”
"Bullshit."
Qin Lian spat domineeringly: "My husband will give these five thousand taels to Gu Langjun's fiancée, betting that she can win."
Xiao Zhou's eyes changed.
You look like a fool, but this is a white fan building, and the quality of the servants is pretty good.
I also know that the people who come here are either rich or noble.
Maybe five thousand taels of silver is nothing to him.
In other words, the higher the odds, the higher the chance of losing money.
If you lose, the money belongs to Bai Fan Lou.
"Lang Jun has thought about it, and the little one is going to place a bet. What is Lang Jun's name? I can record it."
Su Yixin glanced at Qinlian, who coughed and said in a rough voice: "Su Qinlian."
"Okay!"
The clerk was afraid that the old man would regret it, so he ran downstairs quickly, and ran up again after a while, brought a pen and paper, and completed all the procedures.
Finally, I took the banknote and went downstairs happily.
Lianqiu looked at the cheerful boy and sighed: You are happy too early. Sooner or later, you will have to spit out ten times the amount of the banknote. Then you will cry.
The food at Baifanlou was really good. Su Yixin asked Lianqiu to sit down and eat with her and Qinlian.
After eating, we also listened to music at Baifanlou.
It was getting dark when I came out of the Bailun Building. I didn't expect to meet Gu Qingjue at the door.
There is another chapter in the evening. I have been updating late these days because my baby’s cram school has ended and my one-on-one life has started again. It’s terrible! ! ! !
