Multiple women in the family are not a problem, but this woman is indeed beautiful.

At the age of twenty, the maintenance should be good, but it looks a little weathered, but after seeing Li Xiangqian and the two, he saluted politely: "Mei'er has seen two adults." ”

Li Xiangqian nodded and said, "Who is this?" ”

Li Xiangjun said: "I was on the road, but I met this sister, so I invited her to sit down...... Without hindering the two adults, we can go to the pavilion and eat......"

didn't wait for Li Xiangqian to speak, Chen Xiaoshui said with a hippie smile: "It's okay, it's okay, we don't pay attention to those vain, my sister just sits." ”

Li Xiangqian didn't care, and said: "Look at this table, but I prepared it for you a few days ago, and they are all Daming-style enjoyment that we haven't eaten, especially these pastries, but the famous teachers in Suzhou, and these snacks, ha." ”

He winked and hinted that the reason why these pastries were lost was only related to the virtue of "I Daqing".

At this time, Jiangnan cuisine has not been polluted by Huaiyang cuisine, but there is already a prototype and orientation, basically, the style selected by a cuisine has to rely on the local climate geography and output in many cases.

The climate in the Northeast is cold in winter, and in many places it is naturally difficult to spend a few months in winter, so the food is also known for its large amount of calories, which is actually similar to the diet of Europeans, and the European mainland is closer to the Arctic than China, and if it is not for the warm current brought by the sea, it can be cooled relatively down, in fact, it is a very cold place.

And this place in the south of the Yangtze River is another situation, the climate is warm and mild, at least warmer than the north, so there is not much to eat, so it has embarked on the road of refinement, at least the rich merchants eat very finely, the knife work is beautiful, and the aquatic products are more characteristic.

However, Chen Xiaoshui completely lost his appetite at this time, it was originally an official trip to run away, but he suddenly had an affair, he naturally knew the fact that Li Xiangjun was taken down, of course this is not a secret, Li Xiangqian never planned to hide it, but it will not be made public, this kid is actually eating one, is he still going to look at one? I'm not afraid of being skinned alive by the wolves in the imperial capital.

The so-called not suffering from widowhood but suffering from unevenness, in the era when everyone can hook up with palace maids, basically nothing happens, and now gradually penetrates into the society, and no one cares about it when there are more opportunities, but Li Xiangqian, this kid, first ate a well-known famous prostitute in history, if he takes advantage of his position during a business trip to search for beauties in Jiangnan, it will not be a street lamp, but the end of everyone donating gasoline.

In terms of population base, the Yangtze River region at this time is the most populous place, although the so-called beautiful women in the south of the Yangtze River are rumors, and under any normal social order, there will be many beauties.

The proportion of beauties everywhere is about the same, but there are many people in Jiangnan and it is safe, which naturally gives people such a feeling.

However, Chen Xiaoshui's flattering face is too eye-catching, this Mei'er is obviously used to seeing men, but it didn't let him take advantage of it too much, but I have to say that he coped with it very well.

However, Li Xiangqian can't let him continue to be embarrassed, he wants a woman, if he doesn't consider the bad impact, he can transport women back and forth at any time, but that is based on the wear and tear of the elders' will.

"Is Miss Kou from Jinling, the accent is slightly different from Miss Li's."

Li Xiangqian couldn't stand it anymore, and interjected: "He asked where your husband's family is and how he came to Suzhou." ”

Chen Xiaoshui seemed to be taken aback, and immediately realized that he originally knew that the identity of this woman was only between the Qinglou and Chu Pavilions, but the man wanted this tune, and he didn't take it seriously, but the hat of this married young woman is not easy to say.

Kou Mei'er smiled, where could she catch Chen Xiaoshui's mental activities, and said: "I received Xiangjun's letter, and I have been waiting for it, so I will find a reunion." ”

"Hmmm......"

Li Xiangqian said: "If you need help, just speak." ”

Chen Xiaoshui was also like a goose, nodding again and again: "Yes, I didn't say it." ”

Kou Mei'er said: "It's Lord Lao who is worried about it." ”

Li Xiangqian patrolled back and forth on her, thought for a while, and said, "I'm afraid that your recent days are not good." ”

As soon as these words came out, I saw that Kou Mei'er suddenly had tears in her eyes, but she couldn't help crying.

Chen Xiaoshui was surprised: "How do you know, the intelligence network ...... "Could it be that the elders' intelligence network is so powerful that any woman from Nanjing knows it well?"

"It's nothing, it's just some simple reasoning, you're not old, but you should have lived well these years, pampered, but the situation has been a little bad in recent months, and the maids around you are afraid that they will be lost, so you can only grope yourself to learn how to do housework, and there are some new friction marks on your hands, which is easy to observe, and your jewelry is soft and soft, and it doesn't look good to be sold recently, however, since you and Xiangjun are sisters, although they are not dressed up to attend, but as a married woman, there is no jewelry, So I can only judge that you have something, and it's not small, so you don't have to have any burden, just say it, you see, I have no problem with positions below the battalion commander. ”

Kou Mei'er looked down at her slender jade hand, indeed, she has never suffered a lot in her life, but she has suffered a lot of grievances and labor in recent months, she tried her best to cover it up, but she was still seen by this man.

She sighed, she thought she was the best woman, but now that she looks, it's not like that.

But in the blink of an eye, Li Xiangjun followed a rebel party in the imperial capital, and suddenly became a rich lady, but she was ......

"Thank you for your concern, I ......"

"Who is your husband's family, the official gentry of Nanjing?"

Li Xiangjun said in a round game: "I didn't expect your eyesight to be so good, it's all used in our woman's family, but how can these things be easy to say, after eating, I'll talk about it in private." ”

All right.

This meal is also casual, but Li Xiangqian looked at Kou Mei'er and hesitated in his heart, and no longer forced her, a married woman can be open and upright instead of eloping, obviously her husband's family either agrees or can't control him anymore.

Moreover, before Li Xiangjun went south, he did not send letters to too many people.

"This is the latest Junshan hairy tip, try it."

Chen Xiao took a sip of water and said enviously: "It's better to be sent abroad, the food is better than that of the imperial capital." ”

"What do you think, in fact, in terms of quality, it may not be much worse, but it is better than freshness, and I have not exceeded the food standard, but the consumption level in Jiangnan is not as high as we imagined."

Of course, this is also related to the elders' preferences for life, which are different from the Jiangnan gentry, at least Li Xiangqian is not used to pretending to light sandalwood in the house.

Of course, the reception banquet is just like this, Chen Xiaoshui has to build more than a dozen bell towers in Jiangnan within a few months, and he has to ensure at least ten years of independent maintenance work, as well as site selection, site selection, and foundation laying, not to mention leaving space for the department store to be built next to the bell tower in the future, and he has to be careful about what damage will be caused to the bell tower when building the department store.

This point, I have to say, when it comes to architecture, in fact, the Chinese are unique in the world, the future London will be in 1666 to ignite a skyrocketing fire, the whole London into a sea of ruins, wood London is finished, rats burn to death, the plague ends, there is the future "stone London" reconstruction, that is, only three hundred years.

It is also interesting to note that in 1657, the Great Fire in Edo, Japan, left only a small part of the city to survive due to the change in wind direction, and the rest was completely destroyed, with a population of up to 100,000! After the Onin Rebellion, Kyoto was in ruins, and it was even more miserable.

It can be said that if the history is long, in fact, it is still the long preservation of China's buildings, at least there are thousands of miles of the Great Wall and terracotta warriors and horses poking there.

So in terms of architecture, there are still uniqueness, at least in the calculation of the elders, the design service life is more than 100 years, which is quite remarkable, you must know that even the British own Palace of Westminster and Big Ben have undergone several major repairs to ensure that they are in good condition.

The two chatted about the construction plan for a while, but Chen Xiaoshui was obviously absent-minded, his time was too tight, and there were twelve large bell towers that needed to be built, so purely technical, it was very difficult to build.

Fortunately, his idea is to "raise war with war", and after supervising the construction of one in Suzhou, he can appoint apprentices everywhere, and he will act as a supervisor and a person who checks the quality of spot checks to ensure that the project is completed on schedule.

However, after waiting for a while, Chen Xiaoshui finally said the purpose of tonight's itching, and said: "I said brother, this is a trip to Jiangnan, if I don't get a few beauties away, it's really a little unspeakable." ”

"The last stop is to Nanjing, after all, Nanjing is the center, and it is also very important, the building there is more demanding, and when we stay there longer, we will naturally have your chance."

"I think that woman just now is really good."

Li Xiangqian smiled and said: "Although we are strong, but people are estimated to be concubines who have passed through the door, well, you can see it by looking at the hairstyle, the new time and space is not popular to raise other industries, of course, there are many beautiful women on the Qinhuai River, just spend some money and let them find one for you." ”

"Sounds like that."

Li Xiangqian said indifferently: "One is willing to marry, the other is willing to marry, there is nothing uncomfortable, but it is better to keep your spirit and go to Nanjing, but that woman is really strange, suddenly came to the door, I will ask in the evening." ”

arranged for Chen Xiaoshui and his party to live, fortunately, the ground of the Humble Administrator's Garden is not small, which is convenient for people, and Chen Xiaoshui and Kou Meier actually live not far away, so they don't have to wait until midnight, Li Xiangqian leaned on the side of the bed, thinking about something, and heard Li Xiangjun returning to the room.

"Settled?"

"Yes, but don't be so scary next time, the girl from the white door was in the mood when you said it, but she was startled, and she almost left in shame."

"We can only do the same thing...... If you know that your friend is hungry, but you want to compliment him that he is a god who can not eat the fireworks of the world, a tough guy who would rather starve to death than ask for help, and when you know that your friend wants you to send him money, but you are only willing to send him a letter full of comfort and encouragement, and tell him how noble it is to be self-reliant, then I can guarantee that your only friend is yourself, but unfortunately, neither of us are, but there are two ways to help others......"

Li Xiangqian held her in his arms, touched her wantonly, and said: "I have seen a kind of person who knows how to help people, but when everyone wants to go to a very expensive restaurant to eat together, he observes that person from a bad family and asks to go home with him, this is to save face, but that Aunt Kou doesn't want face, she really needs help, otherwise, her husband won't allow his wife to run out like this." ”

Li Xiangjun sighed and said: "Husband is really insightful, but one thing is right, Mei'er's family has some problems, otherwise his notoriously jealous prince would not allow her to come over for help." ”

Li Xiangqian's eyes finally lit up, "Guogong? ”

"Nanjing Baoguo Gong, Mei'er has been married to him for five years."

Li Xiangqian said: "There has never been any information about this person, so it must have no impact on Nanjing's government affairs." ”

"Sort of, he was Chongzhen's fifteenth year to marry Mei'er, the scene at that time was lively, and the people in half the city knew it, and I was still crying at that time."

Li Xiangqian silently complained in his heart: It's a pity that it's over now.

"That shouldn't be easy, what is the purpose of her coming?"

Li Xiangjun sighed: "I can't imagine that the Ming Dynasty can't even support the Duke of the Kingdom now, and he has no way to ask for help, so he naturally comes to ask his husband for help." ”

Li Xiangqian laughed and said: "This Nanming can't even raise the Guogong, hehe, no, even the Guogong refuses to raise it...... On the other hand, they refuse to pay taxes and exclude others, and on the other hand, they never take any responsibility, refuse to pay taxes, and continue to collect taxes. ”

Li Xiangjun said: "The Zhu family has not received the full amount of money for two years, and with this shortfall, the rent of those fields is not easy to collect, so naturally there are many problems. ”

Li Xiangqian thought for a while and said, "Can't eat the old book?" ”

Hundreds of years of Guogong, the Guogong of the Ming Dynasty, no matter how you say it, there should be hundreds of years of accumulation, but two years of famine can't bear it.

Li Xiangjun sighed: "Although Mei'er didn't explain the situation clearly, I know that the grandfather is a character who spends money like running water, on the day of the wedding, thousands of soldiers helped seal the road, and there are so many flowing water seats, and there are a lot of expenses on weekdays." ”

Landlords.

The landlords relied on the government's ruling class bonuses to obtain land and relied on rent collection to maintain their position as the ruling class.

But for a family like Baoguo Gong, they can't touch the military power, and when it comes to the demise of the Ming Dynasty, they are anxious and have no choice.

Without input, I still refuse to save money.
