Article 964
Yuzhu's words were extremely sharp, at first Gu Tingzhen was still listening to refute, and after Yuzhu finished speaking, she started scolding, "You...... You little is about to turn the sky upside down, Chunhuan can't come over to clean up this for me, and he is disrespectful to the master, and he won't beat me! ”
"It's the master!" Chunhuan also approached the carriage and was about to come up, but before he could climb up, he was kicked down by Yuzhu, which made Chunhuan scream: "Ah......"
went down and rolled several times, and the new lake-green clothes that were newly changed in order to go out this morning were all dust, Gu Ting's chaste chest rose and fell: "It's the other way around, this cheap maid has bullied the master's head one by one, if you don't give me the carriage today, you also beat my slave and maid, I won't give up today!" ”
After speaking, he looked at Qingyi viciously, Qingyi put down the book elegantly and said: "Yuzhu, how do I usually educate you, this shrew is a sick person, what do you care about with a sick person, such a person has no normal thinking at all, how can we have time to reason with her, it is better to play the piano to the cow than this, and just get out of the car directly if you are verbose." ”
Yuzhu listened to the master's words, and his eyes were full of smiles, so Yuzhu was not polite, and directly pushed Gu Tingzhen, Gu Tingzhen fell down lightly, but this person is usually pampered, and his clothes are all gray, and his hair is messy, which is similar to a crazy woman.
Gu Tingzhen didn't expect Qingyi to really drive herself down, she didn't care about her feelings at all, Gu Tingzhen got up embarrassed with the help of Chunhuan and Chunyan and said: "Okay, you Qingyi, you don't care about your sisters' feelings at all, you wait for me to go back and tell my grandmother, I don't believe that I am not as good as you in Gu Mansion, let's go!" ”
Qingyi looked at the embarrassed Gu Tingzhen and said: "We are not sisters in the first place, I am like this, whoever is good to me will be better to whoever is good, whoever looks at me and I will never please the other party, what ability is there, just do not offend me, I will not offend anyone, if someone offends me, I will repay it twice!" ”
After Qingyi said categorically, he ordered: "Yu Ping, let's go." ”
Yu Ping had already looked at Gu Tingzhen unpleasantly, but because the master didn't speak, it was also the rule of men and women's defense, so he didn't do it, and when he heard the master's words, he immediately turned the horse's head and walked outside the house, Qingyi lifted the curtain and saw Gu Tingzhen jumping there vigorously, the red embroidered shoes were full of dust, and she went back to the house angrily.
Qingyi knew that it would be troublesome to come back, but the visit in front of her was imperative, Shui Mama and they quickly followed behind, and they arrived at the door of the prefect's house in less than half an hour.
When he saw Qingyi's carriage, he asked, "It's Miss Qingyi?" ”
Mama Shui said: "There is Lord Lao, and it is my young lady who is sitting in the car, I don't know if the prefect and his wife are free at this time?" ”
Wang Zhenyong said: "I learned about the letter from the Gu family to visit yesterday, and now it is here, please come in with me." ”
After Qingyi's carriage stopped at the second gate, the soft sedan chair in the prefect's mansion carried Qingyi into the inner courtyard, if ordinary merchants come here, they are basically in the study of the outer courtyard, but Qingyi's identity is more special, although he is the head of the Gu family, but he is also a little girl who has not left the cabinet, so it is better to have the prefect's wife in the inner courtyard to receive together.
The four of them followed behind, and the other guards couldn't go in the outer courtyard, Qingyi soon arrived at the meeting hall on the prefect's mansion, Qingyi looked at the direction, it should be the meeting hall of the main house, this prefect only has two concubines, so there is no meaning of other rooms.
When I arrived at the door of the conference hall, I heard that it was quite lively inside, and the prefect's wife said, "Master, the little head of the Gu Mansion should be here." This voice sounds soft, it sounds very comfortable, Qingyi can't help but think, this prefect's wife has been running the house with an iron fist for so many years, and she has kept the house in order, and only two aunts don't even have a concubine, which is also a skill.
A deep voice said: "It should be here, although the Gu Mansion is a businessman, but the previous old family owner has made a great contribution to the tax payment of the imperial court, I heard that this little family master is the granddaughter of Gu San's in-laws, and it is some ability to be elected as the head of the family, so we must not neglect this child." ”
"What the master said is very true, the concubine has been taught!" The prefect said respectfully.
Qingyi heard clearly outside, there were still a lot of people in the hall just now, and there would be a prefect and a husband and wife at this time, but listening to them, I felt that they were a sensible couple, and it was an eternal truth that there were good wives and husbands in this family.
Qingyi walked a few steps to the door, and immediately a big maid went to tell her, and immediately came out and said, "Miss Qingyi, our lord and lady have been waiting for a long time, please come in with the slave." ”
Qingyi and a few people followed the big girl in, the furnishings in the room are not luxurious, but they are not flashy, there is a sense of scholarly door, I heard that this Lord Ye is also a scholar, and his ancestors have been famous literati.
As soon as he entered the hall, he saw Prefect Ye and Mrs. Ye sitting at the top, Qingyi stepped forward and said slightly: "Qingyi has seen Lord Prefect and Mrs. Ye." ”
At the moment when Qingyi came in, Mrs. Ye and Lord Ye's eyes flashed with fierce surprise, although this child is young, but this national color and heavenly appearance is indeed rare, the whole body has a strong aura like a spirit jade, and the lilac gauze makes Qingyi Although it is significantly more mature, it is more amazing!
Qingyi also looked at the prefect, although he had reached the age of not being confused, but the official authority that he had cultivated all the year round was vividly exerted, and the dark robe sat there really seriously, and the eyebrows were all righteous, but the shrewdness and sleekness revealed in his eyes made people feel that they could not be underestimated, and such a person was a master when he played politics.
Look at Mrs. Ye again, the pearls are round and jade, and the maintenance is very good, especially the autumn-like eyes, which are full of warmth, and they are even more charming against the backdrop of a red embroidered white peony dress, but the smile is also right to whom.
Mrs. Ye relieved herself and said, "This is Qingyi, sit down quickly, this hot day, the heat is bad." ”
Mrs. Ye's expression and eyes are very in place, as if she is really a relative who has known her for a long time, so Qingyi knows that the most powerful thing about this Mrs. Ye is affinity, no wonder even if she is here, she is still the lady who puts the prefect first.
Qingyi returned the salute and said, "Thank you, Mrs. Ye, for the seat." ”
Qingyi sat down politely, there are no outsiders here today, so Qingyi is a little more cheerful, Qingyi said to Mama Shui: "Mama Shui, hand our gift to Mrs. Ye." ”
Mama Shui respectfully handed it to the eldest grandmother beside Mrs. Ye, and the eldest grandmother took the gift list and handed it to Mrs. Ye, although Mrs. Ye looked at the gift list, although it was not the most, but it was extremely outstanding, at least Tianyun Jin was there, and there was also the snow forging of Xuechen Country, which were all priceless things, obviously Mrs. Ye was extremely satisfied with this gift list.
So he smiled lovingly at Qingyi and said, "This kid is coming, what else is he carrying?" ”
Qingyi said: "Let the adults and Mrs. laugh, Ning'er is young, and I don't know if the preparation is sufficient, whether everyone likes it, Ning'er was still very worried when she came." ”
Mrs. Ye covered her mouth with a water-blue handkerchief and smiled: "Master, look at this little family master, she is really powerful, and she can't even talk about her as a concubine, she is really a woman." ”
Ye Zhifu also smiled with his wife, and didn't say much, because on this occasion, he shouldn't have been there, he should have avoided it, but this Qingyi was also the head of a big family at a young age, so this face still has to be given.
Qingyi smiled and said: "Mrs. Ye is laughing at Qingyi, I have been here in Suzhou and Hangzhou for so long, and I have always heard that Lord Ye is a good official who is diligent and loves the people, and has done a lot of good things for the local people, so Ning'er is deeply admired, and after Ning'er's position as the head of the family is stable, she will adjust the industry, and then plan to do some good things, and it can be regarded as the Gu family of our lineage to do something beneficial to the people, and it is a lifelong benefit, I believe that in three years, the prefect Ye will return to Kyoto to take office, This can be regarded as the selfishness of the Gu family in my hands to go on for a long time. ”
Lord Ye and Mrs. Ye glanced at each other, they didn't expect Qing Yi's idea to be like this, originally they thought that it should be a convenience in the loophole of doing business, but it was definitely beyond their expectations, even Lord Ye thought it was a child at first, so he didn't pay much attention, and he had to sit upright and prepare to listen to Qingyi continue.
There is no one in charge who doesn't like the people to praise him, especially the officials who have really done a lot of things, such as Lord Ye, so Qingyi's sycophants are very good, which greatly satisfies the vanity of the Ye Governor's Mansion, and there is a possibility of promotion in the future official position, so Lord Ye couldn't help but ask: "This official doesn't know what the Gu family master is going to do to benefit the country and the people." ”
Qingyi said with a smile: "The Gu Mansion will be completely separated in the next few days, only our three rooms are left, and the rest of the people are all separated, as for what they do in the future, it is not about our three rooms, today Ning Er is here to make a solid deal with the two elders, this is also the meaning of my grandfather Gu Sanye, so I implore Lord Ye and Mrs. Ye to also give a witness to the head of the family today, if the separation does not go well, it will be troubled by the prefect, and the prefect only needs to deal with it impartially." ”
Qingyi's words made Lord Ye a little suspicious, what this kid said was quite simple, but was there really no trouble at that time?
So Lord Ye said: "Need to let this official deal with it impartially?" What if it's unfair to your three rooms? ”
Qingyi said: "Please also rest assured, Lord Ye, the affairs of the Gu Mansion are nothing more than a matter of money, Grandpa decided to divide the Gu Mansion this time to find out the previous property of the Gu Mansion and divide it equally among them, Grandpa inherited the wealth of the Gu family has nothing to do with them, so they will definitely make trouble, but after so many years, they should have taken what they deserve and should be greedy for ink is enough, so Grandpa does not plan to let it go!" ”
"I have already discussed these coins with my grandfather, and then all the industries of the Gu Mansion will be closed and adjusted anew, but the taxes will be paid correctly, and our Gu family does not want to cause trouble to Lord Ye on this issue, after all, the tax payment of local officials is a very important part of the imperial court's assessment of local officials, and if the gap is too large, it will not be good for Lord Ye."
"After that, I will take out a house with a good foothold to prepare for a free private school, as for the maintenance costs and the cost of inviting Mr. to be bound by the Gu Mansion, it can also be divided into several age shifts, all of which are free of charge, as for the details, I will discuss with the prefect carefully at that time, this is a big matter for the benefit of the people, as for the matter of arranging Mr. Ye Prefect can find it now."
It may be that Ye Zhifu has never seen such a generous businessman, so for a while, Mrs. Ye was a little stunned, and she didn't know what to say, in this case, Gu Fu would be much less profitable, and such a big private school would also have several gentlemen, and the cost of this bundle would be several hundred taels every year, and if Mr. Teaching was a little famous, there would be more, which made Ye Zhifu puzzled, or did this child want to use himself to divide the family and promise not to fulfill?
So Governor Ye looked at Qingyi suspiciously, but Qingyi's eyes were clear, and this person was still sitting there frankly, which made people ignore the actual age of this child.
So Qingyi said: "If there is anything that Governor Ye doesn't understand, you can ask, although Qingyi is young, but he thinks that it is good to say everything in front, so as not to have a dislike in the future, and it will be unpleasant to cooperate." ”
Governor Ye once again confirmed that this child was the real hope of the Gu Mansion, which made Governor Ye think a lot, so Governor Ye said: "This official wants to know that this businessman is interested in interests, why would the head of the Gu family go the other way?" ”
Qingyi said sincerely: "Lord Ye, maybe you can't understand Ning'er's thoughts for a while, but what Ning'er wants to say is that the Gu family can have such an influence today is also due to the purchasing power of the local people, if everyone does not support Gu's business, I'm afraid the current Gu family is long gone, in Youqingyi is not to emphasize fame and fortune to say how many literati and ink writers to cultivate, but I just hope that the people in Suzhou and Hangzhou can have some knowledge, some cultures can know a few big characters, at least know their names,"
"In this way, in the future, you will understand more truths in raising children, and even girls are needed to come to the school to study, but you need a female teacher, as a girl when she is young, she knows the truth, and she can only support her husband when she marries her husband's house, and it is a great responsibility to educate children, and it is beneficial for our whole country to be able to read and write, and in the long run, among the four countries in the future, I hope that our land is the most powerful."
Qingyi's words made Lord Ye and Mrs. Ye see a perfect blueprint, Lord Ye is also a scholar, so his love for culture is extremely high, but his ability is limited, and many things can't be done at all, but Qingyi's words reminded him of the oath that he said that the officials who could do it one day would contribute to the people's reading.
Mrs. Ye also had to look down on this little girl, who was several years younger than her daughter, but her daughter was spoiled, and she didn't know the suffering of the people, where did she have such a heart and mind?
Master Ye walked down to Qingyi even more excitedly and said, "If this matter can be done, this official will thank the Gu family master here for the people of Suzhou and Hangzhou first." ”
Where did Qingyi dare to accept such a big reason? So dodge dodged.
