The next day, wake up early.

Cheng Chubi followed his father Cheng Yanjin into the carriage and slowly came to the Yiguo Mansion.

Qin Qiong, the prince of Yiguo, Qin Shubao, is a well-known hero in the Tang Dynasty, the most famous person in the Tang Dynasty, stepping on both sides of the Yellow River, beating half of the sky in Shandong, filial piety seems to be specialized, making friends Sai Mengwei, speaking of the second brother of Qin, who does not give a thumbs up and shout "Good man!" ”？ The word two-rib knife comes from 'Qin Shubao took a fork in the road for his friend Liangrib Village'.

It can be said that Qin Qiong and Qin Shubao are famous figures in the Tang Dynasty.

As the car slowly moved forward, it soon came to the outside of the Yiguo Mansion, there was a halberd standing in front of the door, so it was not majestic, and the copper knocker on the gate became golden because it was often wiped.

After getting out of the carriage, Cheng Yanjin strode forward, knocked on the door, and an old servant opened the door to reveal a head.

Qin Qiong and the Cheng family are world friends, and Cheng Biting Jin and Qin Qiong can be said to have grown up with bare butts, so the two families are very familiar. Walking into the Yiguo Mansion, Cheng Chubi's brows couldn't help frowning slightly.

The courtyard is a little dilapidated, and the houses are a little old, it seems that it can be determined that it has not been renovated for a long time, even if it is an ordinary rich family, it is estimated that it is better than that of Yi Guogong.

"Grandpa, the place you really brought me here is the Wing Kingdom Mansion?" Cheng Chubi couldn't help but ask, "You didn't bring me to the wrong place?" ”

"Isn't it shabby?"

"Compared to our Cheng family, it's a slum." Cheng Chubi couldn't help but say, he really couldn't figure out why Qin Qiong's Mansion was so shabby.

No matter how you say it, Qin Shubao is also the Duke of Yiguo.

However, soon, Cheng Chubi figured it out, and it was Li Er's cautious eye that made trouble. Qin Shubao is kind to the Li family, when Yang Guang sent people to hunt down and kill Li Yuan's family, it was Qin Shubao who rescued their family, it can be said that if there was no Qin Shubao, the people of the old Li family would have died a long time ago.

When the Tang Dynasty was just established, Qin Shubao was named the Duke of Yiguo and Shangzhuguo. However, at the time of the Xuanwumen Incident, he was neutral, which made Li Shimin quite unhappy, so when Li Shimin won the throne, he was still the Duke of Yiguo, eating 700 households, which was the least among all the princes. Later, he died, was named Hu Guogong, and ranked first from the bottom on the Lingyan Pavilion.

Whether it is Yi Guogong or Hu Guogong, they are all relatively low-grade.

To put it bluntly, Qin Qiong is loyal to the Tang Dynasty rather than to the emperor, and his merits are high. So since the Xuanwumen Incident, Qin Qiong's treatment has been getting worse and worse.

"Hey!" Cheng Yanjin couldn't help but shake his head and walked forward quickly.

"Ahem......"

Suddenly, there was a coughing sound from the room in front of him, and then a tall figure was helped out of the room, and it was Qin Qiong.

"Ugly here? Come on in. Qin Qiong said with a slight smile, turned around and walked forward.

"Ugly? Is Dad's nickname really called Ugly? Cheng Chubi almost burst out laughing and said, "Grandpa, how ugly were you when you were a child?" ”

"Gourd." Cheng Yanjin glared at Cheng Chubi fiercely and said.

The crowd walked into the hall and sat down. There was a faint smell of Chinese herbs in the air.

"Ugly, what is the matter with San Lang coming to the door today?" Qin Qiong smiled slightly, with a bit of a joke, and said, "Is it for my Qin family's daughter?" San Lang, the Qin family doesn't dare to marry their daughter to you. ”

"Uncle Qin said with a smile, my nephew is here to play this time." Cheng Chubi smiled slightly and said, "Why don't you see Huaidao them?" ”

Qin Huaidao, that is Qin Qiong's sister-in-law, who is only ten years old now.

"I went out with his sisters." Qin Qiong said lightly: "It's a pity, if San Lang came earlier, he wouldn't have to go out to have fun." ”

Qin Qiong has only one son, so she has great expectations for her son, and as a world friend, she naturally prefers her son to have more contact with the Cheng family.

"Second brother, I'm here to do business with my second brother this time." Cheng Yanjin said straight to the point, and then told Qin Qiong about his intention this time.

When Qin Qiong heard this, her brows couldn't help frowning slightly, and after a long time, she spoke, and said, "Ah Chou, I know that you are pitiful, but this thing must not be done." ”

"Second brother, don't shirk." Cheng Yanjin couldn't help but say.

"Yes, Uncle Qin, even if you don't look at it for your own sake, you have to look at Huaidao's sake, for the sake of the sisters of the Qin family, right? Huaidao is still young, and in the future, he will have to invite a master to learn literature and martial arts, and it is all money. And the sisters of the Qin family have also reached the age of leaving the cabinet, if they don't have a dowry, how can they get it? Doesn't it make the world underestimate the Wing Country Mansion? Didn't the in-laws underestimate them? Besides, Uncle Qin, you also need a lot of money for your bones. Cheng Chubi couldn't help but say: "Uncle Qin, I know that you are high-spirited, but even a saint has to eat, don't you?" The expenses of the huge Wing Kingdom Mansion are also a lot. The dilapidated house needs to be repaired, right? Qin Chengben's family, why do they have to see the outside world like this? ”

"But so-and-so really can't come up with the money." Qin Shubao couldn't help but sigh and said, how did he not know that this was a profitable business, but the Yiguo Mansion was really out of money.

"Isn't this a trivial matter?" Cheng Yanjin laughed and said: "This money, my Cheng family is out, so it will be regarded as the second brother who borrowed me, and when the time comes, just share it from the profits and return it to so-and-so."

"Uncle Qin wants to refuse, what he gave to you is better than giving it to the saint, anyway, the saint has empty gloves and white wolves, and he has taken so much profit but he doesn't give a penny." Cheng Chubi pursed his lips and said.

"You bastard. Saints are not what you can orchestrate! Cheng Yanjin glared at Cheng Chubi and said.

"It's not enough to say that you have so many shares for nothing." Cheng Chubi was quite unhappy in his heart.

Qin Qiong didn't say a few words, and then she began to cough, she bled too much when she was young, and she was the first in every battle, and she was extremely brave, of course, she was injured and bled countless times. Now that I'm old, my body can't bear it.

"Uncle Qin hasn't taken those prescriptions I wrote recently?" Seeing that Qin Qiong was lacking in energy, Cheng Chubi couldn't help but ask.

"Hey, San Lang doesn't know, your prescription is good, but our Yiguo Mansion really can't afford it." Qin Qiong's wife couldn't help but speak.

Now that the yellow eel meat has been a pound for a long time, where can you afford to eat it every day? Not to mention those medicines that tonify the body, don't look at the appearance of the Yiguo Mansion, it is actually very poor.

The poorest princes in the Tang Dynasty belong to Wei Zheng and Qin Shubao. Although the Qin family has 700 households, the Qin family is generous and never oppresses tenants, so naturally there are fewer things to collect. As for the Wei family, it is said that Wei Zheng's wife has to weave her own cloth and sell it.
