Chapter 860
Outside the Yuhua Pavilion, on the long and narrow palace road, Erfu looked back at the vermilion and copper-studed palace door that had been re-closed, was silent for a long time, and sighed faintly and said: " It seems that she can't go back, I remember that she was not like this before, when I was a child, Guo Luo Luo Fujin didn't like me, Ama was far away in the frontier to guard one side, my status in the house, even those face-saving maids can't compare, eat coarse tea and light rice, melon and fruit snacks are not to think about it, but she will always excuse herself to eat, send those fresh fruits to me, and specially arrange the reliable maids around me to serve, whenever she cuts new clothes, she will also find all kinds of reasons to persuade Guo Luo Luo Shi Fujin to prepare for me, although the material is not as good as hers, but it will not be unclothed timeγ Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
At that time, Guo Luo Luo Fujin wanted me to enter the palace to fix her favor, and she also tried to persuade Guo Luo Luo to dispel this idea, and even later Guo Luo Luo arranged for Sangege to come to the house to block me, and she came forward to solve it for me, there are many more such things, but now how did we come to such a strange road, I am really uncomfortable. As she spoke, Erfu raised her eyes and looked at the fourth master who was standing opposite her, threw herself into the arms of the fourth master, and sobbed softly.
"It's a wise move for her to do this, she understands that your identity can't be hidden from others, you used to be my side Fujin, inside and outside the palace, you also often go in and out, and you know a lot of dignitaries in the palace, but you are now a member of the Niu Hulu family, if you are always walking around with the concubine, it will inevitably make the people of the Niu Hulu family think more, which is not conducive to your foothold in the house, and you also have to take into account the emperor's views, you are not even willing to do the least cover-up, it will always give people a feeling of deliberately losing the emperor's face.
Okay, don't think about it, the emperor won't let her stay in Yuhua Pavilion all the time to reflect on her mistakes.
E-Niang is still waiting for us to go back for lunch, and the head of the family should also have a lot of things to say to you, let's finish the matter and leave the palace early. The fourth master stroked Erfu's slightly trembling back, waved his hand and retreated from the palace maids who were waiting beside him, and lowered his voice to persuade him.
"I'm fine, I'm just a little uncomfortable. Erph nodded with a sob.
"Okay, quickly wipe away your tears, I will cry and cry on the second day of this wedding, if I let Ilgen Jueluo Lao Fujin see it, I can't blame me for not taking good care of you, besides, there are many people in this palace, and there are many people in this palace, and there may be some gossip, and when the time comes, it will cause trouble to the concubine and the concubine. The fourth master hooked the corners of his lips slightly, raised his hand and pinched the handkerchief to wipe the tears on Erfu's face, and softly comforted, seeing that Erfu finally stopped sobbing, he greeted the poetry who retreated to the side and waited.
Poetry is specially selected by Ilgen Jue Luo to serve Erfu to dress up, usually in charge of Erfu's precious jewelry and auspicious clothes, dresses and other valuable clothes, this child entered the palace with her, that is, when the fourth master was afraid that Erfu would lose control of his emotions, he didn't expect it to really come in handy.
"Cover the tears on your master's face. The fourth master commanded softly, and then walked to the side and waited.
There was about a cup of tea, and then Erf came over.
Erfu, who had re-put on makeup, had a slight smile on the corner of her mouth, and her emotions calmed down, and she accompanied Concubine De Niangniang to have a very rich palace banquet in Yonghe Palace, and just about to leave the palace with the rewards of the palace maidens, the old man Kangxi led Wei Zhu and other entourages from the Qianqing Palace.
The old man Kangxi who changed out of his court clothes was as kind as an old man from an ordinary family.
He was wearing a long robe with a plain brocade bamboo leaf pattern, and a small melon skin hat inlaid with jade on his head, and walked into the palace door with a smile on his face, looked at Erfu and the fourth master who got up to salute, and glanced at several brocade boxes placed next to him, and joked happily: "Why are you in such a hurry to leave the palace, there is no cannibalistic tiger in this palace, why don't you accompany your daughter-in-law more with your mother-in-law, or our fourth brother married his daughter-in-law and forgot his mother, and hurried home to live his own little life." β
"Huang Ama, you are really wrong to blame the minister!
Erchen is afraid that Eniang will be tired, Eniang only returned to the palace in the middle of the night in order to handle the marriage for Erchen yesterday, and got up early this morning to prepare for the meeting gift to Xinfujin, I am afraid that I haven't had a good sleep until now!"
It's just that before the fourth master's words landed, Concubine De Niangniang followed the words of the old man Kangxi next to her, and then added oil and vinegar and said: "Your Majesty, according to the concubine, this bastard boy is married to a daughter-in-law and forgot his mother, which means that the concubine understands the character of the girl Erfu and knows that this girl is a good child, otherwise the concubine really doubts that the new daughter-in-law is stirring up something in your ear, so that the concubine is a good brother and enters the palace, and he doesn't even bother to say a word to the concubine!"
"Don't follow the side drum, frighten the new daughter-in-law, and look back carefully at the fourth child to show you face. The old man Kangxi knew that Concubine De's words were a joke, and he also knew that Erfu was a thin-skinned person, so he pulled the words back with a smile, turned his head to look at Erfu, who was bowing his head and making a shy appearance beside the fourth master, and continued, "This Niu Hulu family is married to the fourth family, but I have to take care of the mess in the fourth house, do my duty as a concubine, take care of the female dependents in the house, don't let those women have other thoughts, and make a mess again. β
This is what the old man Kangxi said with a straight face, and he really planned to do so.
If Erfu can't afford those things in the fourth mansion, he still has to re-elect the right famous female dependents for the fourth to be Fujin, after all, he is interested in the fourth child inheriting the unification, and Erfu is the mother of the country in the future. The snobbery of the ministers in the court, now that Erfu has come forward to take care of the affairs of the Fourth Master's Mansion, in the eyes of the old man Kangxi, it is just for her to practice her hands temporarily, and if she does it well, he can really rest assured.
Erfu and the fourth master both heard the subtext of the old man Kangxi's words, she looked at the fourth master sitting next to her uneasily, and nodded solemnly: "Huang Ama rest assured, before the concubine got married, the concubine's mother, Yiergen Jueluo Fujin, carefully taught the concubine to take care of family affairs and entertain people, although the concubine is talented and blunt, she will also work hard to do a good job, even if there is something you don't understand, don't the concubines still have the two big Buddhas of Ama and Niangniang to support the concubines!"
"Hehe, you can think about it, I and your mother are ready.
However, you have to pay attention to the rules in doing things, and you must have the stomach to be a concubine, and you must not learn from the deceased Wulanala clan's brute force and nonsense, and do some stupid things to dig into the hearts of the old four, after all, no matter whose belly those children crawled out of, in the final analysis, they are the children and grandchildren of our Aixinjueluo family. "The old man Kangxi is over half a hundred years old, and he really likes a girl with a pure character like Erfu, and he is happy to indulge her, but if he should be beaten, he is not polite, and deliberately preaches with a straight face.
Erf wasn't a stupid girl either, so she smiled and nodded.
The old man Kangxi stayed in the Yonghe Palace and talked for a while, and then left under the pretext that there were political affairs to deal with in front of him, and the fourth and Erfu also followed the old man Kangxi out of the Yonghe Palace, along the stone path in the imperial garden out of the palace gate, and took the carriage to the Xuancai Fang, which was also specially requested by Erfu, according to the second day of her passing the door, she shouldn't show up like this, but for the sake of An An Baijiao's thoughts, she couldn't take care of it so much, who let her not find a chance to send a message to Bai Jiao for so long, although the Xuancai Fang has now passed to the name of the fourth master and has become the private property of the fourth master's mansion, but the wealth is moving, and it is inevitable that some people will be greedy, want a piece of the pie.
In the dazzling color workshop, it is still so magnificent.
A female guy wearing a light pink and purple tooth shirt skirt, dressed neatly, standing behind the counter with a glass countertop, smiling and groaning to receive the guests, especially Erfu, a famous lady who wore gold and silver, and was dressed in a flag costume, entered the store, and was brought out by two Bai Jiao personally came to entertain.
"Where's your shopkeeper?" said Erph, walking up the stairs inside.
One of the big guys smiled and replied, "The shopkeeper is upstairs."
The little one looks at Fu Jin as a regular customer in our store, but what's the matter with the shopkeeper?
"Your eyesight is really not very good, I didn't see the lantern on the carriage we sat in, the bright Yongzi, the owner of your Xuancai Fang, you said that we are looking for your shopkeeper something, don't hurry up to lead the way for us, be careful I let you clean up the shopkeeper in vain, and deduct your monthly money and dividends. Erfu looked at this big guy quite well-matched, smiled and quipped, stretched out his hand and pushed open the door of Bai Jiao's exclusive private room, and walked directly inside.
On the contrary, the fourth master followed behind, a little awkward, not embarrassed to go inside, although this private room is used by Bai Jiao to entertain distinguished guests on weekdays, but it is also Bai Jiao's boudoir, he is a big man who is embarrassed to go inside, but Erfu seems to have not seen it, has sat at the table with a big grin, poured himself a cup of tea, is looking at Bai Jiao with a smile, asking about the accounts in the shop.
"Ahem, ahem, ahem......" The fourth master stood awkwardly at the door of the private room and cleared his throat.
Bai Jiao smiled and saw this scene, stretched out her hand and poked Erfu's waist and eyes, and said in a low voice: "Your fourth master is a big man, I'm afraid it's not good to go in and out of the private room upstairs, it's better to let someone lead him to the back to go around, over there Master Hu has a good piece of Tianhuang stone, just carving a private seal for your fourth master to play." β
"Since you have said so, then you can arrange for someone to accompany the fourth master to walk around, in the end, it is the big owner of the shop, and no one knows anyone who comes to the door. Erfu smiled and looked back, just in time to see the fourth master nodding again and again, and joked softly.
Seeing the fourth master turn around and walk back, Erfu retracted his gaze, glanced at Bai Jiao, and softly ordered Shiqing to guard the door, then followed Bai Jiao into the inner room, and asked in a low voice: "Is there any eyebrows about the things I asked you to investigate? Have all the people sent overseas have been sent? In addition, how are those three-story small buildings over there in Nancheng built?"
"When you came, I knew there was definitely something. Bai Jiao, who was asked several questions by Erf, rolled her eyes angrily, backhanded out a booklet from the dark compartment in the bed, handed it to Erfu, and muttered unhappily, "Let's take a look for yourself, the deed of sale in this booklet was the first two times I went out with those foreign devils, and I don't know if I can pass safely, I don't know if I can come back, I don't even know if it can be useful, I spent thousands of taels of silver in vain, and I have to arrange a place for the families of those children, which is another big expense." β
"If you are willing to give, you will have to give.
This foreigner's stuff is rare, and you can also see those palace dignitaries, Rich businessmen and giants, for such a palm-sized small mirror can be willing to throw one hundred and eighty taels of silver out, let's send these children out, the total cost is not more than 10,000 taels of silver, as long as a few of them have learned the craftsmanship of these foreigners, our silver is not like flowing water, as for those fields, put in the poor people's homes is the ancestral property, planting that little food is reluctant to eat, put it in my hands, but it is just an industry to make pocket money, can help a handful, let alone have these people in their hands, for those children who go abroad, it is always a stumbling blockγ
What's more, this trip to the sea is to fight for the future, just as a settling-in fee.
You said that you are also the big shopkeeper of such a big industry, why are you still so stingy. Erfu smiled and put the booklet into his sleeve, and casually threw out a pair of jade cards to Bai Jiao, comforting Bai Jiao, who was distressed and holding his heart, and said softly.
"You don't have a backache when you stand and talk, and this money doesn't come from the wind.
The little thing you left here with me, that is the less and less you use, you have a number in your heart, you are not as good as before, I wish that half of the shops in the city are your dowry, and throwing out a thousand hundred taels of silver is not a matter, and now you have returned to the fourth master's mansion with empty hands, and your monthly share of silver alone is not enough to reward the next person, and you are so generous and do not know how to restrain, sooner or later let you know the taste of hunger. Don't say it, don't be angry, listening to Erfu say this, Bai Jiao couldn't wait to slap Erfu awake, casually pulled over a thin booklet, pointed to the few properties on it that were getting fewer and fewer, and said angrily.
Erfu knocked on the jade plate thrown in front of Bai Jiao's eyes with one finger, and said with a smile: "Didn't I send you silver, this pair of jade cards is the withdrawal voucher of the heyday ticket number in front of Dashilar, and the 100,000 taels of silver prepared for me by Niu Hulu's family before let me save it, you take the time to take it out later, don't be cheap, you touch it yourself, do something business, money makes money, and profits roll, I will point to you to earn me private money to buy flowers and wear." β
"Yes, this Niu Hulu family treats you as an adopted daughter really well.
I heard before that your dowry of Sifujin is ten miles of red makeup, I thought it was some flashy goods, but I didn't expect that this Niu Hulu family was so willing to fill in for you, and the 100,000 taels of silver were about to catch up with the accumulation of an ordinary merchant family for several generations. Bai Jiao had also seen a lot of money, and she didn't show much surprise, she just smiled and received the jade card to the dark grid, and continued to talk about the things on the side.
