After all, the housekeeper is a person who is already very familiar with this industry, and many official lords, ladies and ladies know him, so this time Qingyi asked Steward Lin to work hard to "show up" and go to various mansions to send invitations, in fact, more precisely, it is a leaflet.

And Steward Lin himself is the guarantee of credibility.

Those officials inevitably wondered: Is "Chen Liufu" a Qi family's industry?

Even the masters and subordinates in the Qi Mansion occasionally passed by the shop and saw this person, and then saw Steward Lin busy there, and couldn't help but wonder: Isn't this tailor-made by Master Qi for the third son?

Even one day, when Qi Lianchen returned to the room at night, he approached Qingyi's side like offering a treasure, and said as if it were true or false, "Qing'er, I saw a good place today, and I have a lot of fate with my husband, and I am thinking that if that place belongs to my husband, then I don't have to worry about having no money to gamble for my husband in this life!" ”

At that time, Qingyi was drinking tea, and asked without raising his head, "What's the best place to go?" ”

"'Chen' Liufu."

Qingyi squirted out a mouthful of tea on the spot, but Qi Lianchen didn't speak, just stared at her with a smile, and his eyes were very weird.

Having said that, since the old lady was buried, ......, no, since this man refused to marry Zhu'er three times and called her "Qing'er" convulsively, he often looked at her with such an inquiring and almost see-through gaze, and the "Qing'er" also called her more and more smoothly.

Seeing that the name "Chen Liufu" has aroused reverie for all those who should and shouldn't, and the real owner of this store is Qingyi, although she has never shown up, except for Steward Lin and Master Qi, no one knows this fact, everything is Steward Lin's agent, but the store is hers, there is no doubt about this. Strictly speaking, "Chen Liufu" should be carved out of the traditional business of the Qi family.

So, Mr. Qi set up a conversation with Steward Lin, Qingyi and others, and said to the outside world: It was a shop opened by an old friend of Mr. Qi, and Steward Lin was experienced, so he was specially invited to help take care of it, and the real shopkeeper was that person, and the reason why he named it with the word "Chen" is because the person's table word is Chen'an, but what can be guaranteed is that the goods are absolutely true and fashionable.

In this way, everyone's suspicions were dispelled. And back and forth, the ladies and wives of the official family love to be pretty and love to be different, so the first batch of basic products in "Chen Liufu" was quickly sold out.

The so-called striking while the iron is hot, Qingyi asked Steward Lin to enrich a few more reliable goldsmiths to create the next round of products on the shelves, and the next round of products on the shelves, in addition to the previous basic products, add a batch of upgraded versions. The fine part is responsible for Ah Sheng alone, and those rough parts can be made by other masters first.

Ah Sheng is indeed up to the task, and every finished product he makes has almost no flaws, which is very consistent with Qingyi's design, which makes Qingyi very curious, and he really wants to meet this young goldsmith one day.

In short, Qingyi's gold shop is gradually on the right track.

And from recruiting to selling out the first batch of goods, in just half a month, Old Man Qi had to believe that this design was bigger than everything, but Qingyi told him that the real highlight had just begun.

In other words, "Chen Liufu" is on the right track, and while Ah Sheng and they are struggling to create the second batch of jewelry, the auspicious day of the zodiac selected by Qi Fuli for the concubine of the fourth prince is also coming.

Although it is only a concubine, the Qi family is the richest man after all, not to mention, when the fourth prince will find a suitable wife in the future, I don't know if it is the year of the monkey, so this time the concubine is also more lively and formal, except for the treatment that the concubine room cannot have, the rest of the procedures are not too taboo, and the five aunts almost all fought for Ju'er.

On the day of the concubine, the Qi family came and went, and it was very lively, although during the old lady's death, there were many guests coming and going in the house, but after all, the red and white ceremonies were different, how could it be so lively now?

What's more, it is the fourth prince who wants to take a concubine, the stupid and stupid fourth son, many people are reluctant to leave after giving gifts and eating a meal, and they all keep it to see if there will be any jokes when the four sons visit the church.

In order to congratulate the fourth prince on taking a concubine, Qingyi on behalf of the third prince of Qi, sent two big red brocade quilts, a white marble gift to the son Guanyin, a string of fine seawater pearl necklaces, two strings of sandalwood elm Buddha beads that the monk had opened, plus two hundred taels of gifts.

That Qin Yayun and Qingyi discussed, although Qi Liancheng is a concubine, but after all, Qi Liancheng assists the Qi family's business, so the things sent by the second son of Qi in one room are almost the same as Qi Sanshao's room, but the white marble sent to Guanyin is replaced by white marble Ruyi.

In contrast, the things sent in the eldest prince's room are slightly shabby, except for two brocade quilts, two pairs of mille-feuille soles of the century-old embroidered shoes, plus two newlyweds, there is nothing else, and even the gift money is less than half.

Although the fifth aunt has some whispers in her heart, she has excellent self-cultivation on her face, and she herself is a woman who rules other people's families, and she naturally does a very good job of being happy and angry.

The sixth lady seemed to have nothing to do with herself, leaning beside the eldest young lady and the fourth miss, pointing and not knowing what to say.

The eldest prince was pushed by the new maid Cha'er in a place where there were few people, he was inconvenient, so he naturally couldn't be in a crowded place, if he accidentally fell down, he looked like this, and it was not easy to blame others, but occasionally when he met Qingyi's sight, he smiled and nodded gently.

Qingyi returned the salute, but his heart flashed the figure of the masked man in black that day, but the eldest prince sat there, he really couldn't distinguish clearly, and the suspicion was just a fleeting thing, and soon, Qingyi felt that this was unlikely, after all, no one was stupid enough to sit in a wheelchair for ten years, and there was no benefit at all, and even the right to manage the business in the house was given up.

Impossible, very unlikely.

Besides, in the rooms of the Qi family, Miss Five and her mother and Aunt Four arrived last, this is probably because Qingyi has been in the house for so long, except for meal time, the second time I saw Miss Five on a non-dining occasion.

The fourth aunt is an absolute beauty, and her daughter is obviously more like her mother, and her appearance is the most outstanding among the sisters, even more beautiful than the second young lady, but unfortunately, she doesn't like to talk, and she looks like a bystander, standing next to her mother.

When everyone was chatting and laughing in the courtyard of the fifth aunt, Ju'er had already dressed up, covered her red hijab, and sat on the bedside of the fourth son's room and waited.

And the fourth son is the happiest one today, in fact, he doesn't understand anything at all, just because he sees that there are many people and lively today, so he is happy, especially when Qingyi and Qi Sanshao came, he immediately shook off other people and jumped up to the two of them, "Third sister-in-law, the Guanyin statue you gave me is very beautiful, and next time Liantang will also carve a Guanyin statue for the third sister-in-law." ”

Qingyi listened, crying and laughing, this big child naturally didn't understand the meaning of sending Guanyin, she turned her head to look at Qi Lianchen on her side, the latter was indifferent, it should not have taken Qi Liantang's words to heart, and besides, there was a small guy next to him who quietly approached Qi Lianchen and said, "Westinghouse has opened a handicap", where will the gambler let it go? Without saying a word, he followed the little guy away.

Qi Liantang didn't keep it, just looked at Qingyi's face, and continued to ask, "Third sister-in-law, do you like the Guanyin statue?" ”

"I like it."

"Do you like Liantang?"

"Uh......"

Such a question, probably the fourth prince can say it in such an innocent tone, he can't bear to hurt his "young heart", Qingyi nodded.

Qi Liantang laughed, and immediately decided, "Then another day, Liantang will give the third sister-in-law a statue of Liantang's own." ”

Qingyi bent her lips and smiled, her white teeth loomed, Qi Liantang looked at her, stunned, and then laughed too, "Third sister-in-law, you are so good-looking." ”

"Uh......"

For no reason, Qingyi panicked because of this childish saying, she glanced around, but fortunately, except for Liu Er behind her, no one heard it.

When she was struggling with how to take Qi Liantang's words, the fifth aunt's personal maid came over with a bowl of medicine and walked to Qi Liantang's side, "Fourth son, it's time to take medicine." ”

Qi Liantang's face was bitter, and as soon as he smelled the smell of the medicine, he pinched his nose, "Ah Xia, can you not eat it?" ”

"No, if the fourth son doesn't eat, then the slave can only go to Madame."

Obviously, such a drama should be staged every day, and the maid named Xia'er also figured out a way to subdue him.

Looking for a big lady? The one who is a mother shouldn't use the method of raw watering.

Counting it, the fourth son was seriously ill seven years ago, and he has been taking medicine since then, for seven years, every day, it is unbearable for anyone, not to mention, his mind is still just a child.

Looking at Qi Liantang pinching his nose and frowning over the medicine bowl, Qingyi really couldn't look past it, and then looked at the bowl of brown medicinal juice, and I didn't know what ingredients were put in it, the medicine smelled weird, and it was disgusting to smell.

For a moment, Qingyi even wanted to overturn the bowl of decoction, just this kind of messy thing can cure the stupidity of the four young? If it can be cured, it will be cured a long time ago, it is a three-point poison, maybe because he has been taking this medicine, the fourth son will not get better.

...... Wait, what just flashed through her mind?

"Fourth brother."

At the moment when Qi Liantang brought the medicine bowl to his lips, Qingyi opened his mouth.

Qi Liantang hurriedly turned his head to look at her, not caring about drinking medicine, "The third sister-in-law called me?" ”

Qingyi smiled, her eyes swept over the medicinal juice, "Is it bitter?" ”

Qi Liantang wrinkled his handsome face, "Bitter." ”

Hearing this, Qingyi turned her head and said to the fifth lady's personal maid, "Xia'er, such a bitter medicine, why don't you bring some candied fruit to the fourth son?" ”

"Third young lady, this medicine is not bitter......"

Qingyi asked with a cold face, "Have you ever drunk?" ”

Na Xia Er stopped talking.

"Why don't you go soon? I'll watch the fourth brother drink here, don't worry, Madame won't blame you. ”

Hearing her say this, Xia'er hurriedly retreated.

Seeing that the maid was leaving, Qingyi took the medicine bowl in the hands of the fourth prince, quietly poured out a little on his silk handkerchief, and then held it into a ball and handed it to Liu Er.

Liu Er and Qi Liantang were puzzled.

Qingyi smiled at Qi Liantang comfortingly, "It's nothing, the third sister-in-law just wants to try it, isn't it really bitter, drink the medicine." ”

Qi Liantang believed it, but Liu Er didn't believe that his wife was so mysterious, just to try whether the medicine was bitter or not.

It wasn't until later that Xia'er sent candied fruit to the fourth son, and after a while, the fifth aunt called her son away, and Qingyi whispered to Liu'er, "If you have the opportunity, take the medicinal juice on the silk handkerchief outside the house, find a Lang Zhong to test it, and see what kind of medicinal materials are in it and what effect it is." ”

Liu Er's eyes widened, and she almost exclaimed, "Madam, aren't you suspicious......" Qingyi glared at her and cut off her words, "What's the fuss?" It's just that the medicine is three parts poisonous, and even Tang has eaten it for seven years, and no matter how good a person is, he may be stupid, so I think this is strange, and I don't know if it is the prescription prescribed by the quack doctor in Ge Langzhong. - Don't look at me like that, that Ge Langzhong is definitely a quack. ”

If it wasn't for a quack, how could he have given her a pulse in the first place, and she was in poor health?

As for the medicine test for the fourth son this time, in fact, this matter is none of her business, helpless, looking at such an innocent and intelligent child, she really can't bear to take medicine every day......

Liu Er heard that his wife said that the only recognized old man in the Qi Mansion was like that, and she was very disapproving, "Madame......"

"Don't say anything, there is one thing that I never told you, when I was rescued from the lotus pond, I didn't drink a single sip of the medicine prescribed to me by the quack doctor."

"What?" Liu Er was taken aback, but after pondering, she finally pondered the taste, "Could it be that Mrs. poured it in that potted plant by the window?" ”

Qingyi smiled slyly, but avoided answering, "Remember what I explained, this matter has to be taken to heart, done well, maybe in the future I will find you a good in-law, let you marry as a young lady, and no longer have to serve people." ”

Liu Er blushed, "Miss! ”

......

That night, Qingyi only stayed in the chapel and left, she didn't like to join in the excitement, when she came out, the young lady stopped her, and said a bunch of bad things about Ju'er, which was nothing more than a hint that the child in Ju'er's belly came strangely.

Qingyi just smiled, pretending not to understand, so she shirked and said that she was going to the eldest lady, and left.

In fact, she has been worried in her heart, if there are really rumors about the child in Ju'er's belly in the house, if the people in the fifth aunt's room can stabilize it like the second young lady, if it can't withstand the provocation and make things bigger, in the end, it is actually the fourth son who will be laughed at.

This is not what she likes to see, but it is not something she can control, after all, there are too many people in the Qi Mansion who have nothing to do.

It's just that what she didn't expect was that Ju'er became Aunt Ju, but the next day, it spread in the house, saying that the child in her belly was not the fourth son's.

After hearing this rumor, the fifth aunt was relatively smart and knew that she should suppress this matter, but she did not control her arrogant and brainless daughter.

According to the news inquired by Liu Er, when Miss Six heard the rumors, she ignored the fact that she was just a yellow-haired girl who had not left the cabinet, and openly asked about that kind of Fengyue in her fourth brother's room.

How could the fourth prince understand this? After three or two nondescript words, the stuffing was leaked.

During the whole process, Ju'er was so frightened that she didn't dare to come out, her face was pale, and when the fifth lady saw Ju'er's appearance, she knew that there was nothing false about it. But her daughter asked questions as if she was afraid that things would not be bad enough.

"Brother, let me ask you, did she sleep in the same bed with you every night before she married you?"
