He was betrayed at the beginning, from a cake seller to a wealthy person
Chapter 202 End of the Year
Jian Hongling's problem was solved like this, and Bu Si Shu became more and more popular day by day.
There are not many people on the first and second floors, not as much as Lu Ji, but each shop often sends their boys over to buy. On the other hand, whenever they have free time, these noble ladies come in groups. Those who like to play cards go to the third floor to play leaf cards, and those who like to read story books go to the fifth floor to read the newly released story books. They just like to chat with others. They went up to the fourth floor in small groups, ordered a pot of tea, a few snacks, and sat chatting.
Lu Yan likes to go to the fourth floor to listen to gossip when she has nothing to do. Because Lu Yan is from outside and doesn't know about these bad things in the capital, everything she hears is new. She looks at them with clear and confused eyes, and from time to time she says, "What then?" "Oh my God!" "That's it!" "Awesome!" provided these ladies with extremely high positive feedback and emotional value. Now when they saw Lu Yan coming, they all directly asked her to come over and sit down.
Today, as soon as Lu Yan brought up a plate of spicy peanuts, she was greeted by several ladies and sat down. Lu Yan listened to their chat while eating.
Today's game was prepared by Mrs. Li. Her husband was at the Yushitai, holding back the news: "Hey, have you heard about what happened to Huang Hanlin?"
Another lady came up and asked, "Huang Xu, right? I've heard a little bit about it, and it seems that he has been unlucky recently."
Mrs. Li nodded: "That's quite unlucky. It is said that I have not been able to live well in the past few days. I was either knocked here or touched that way. It was a bloody disaster!"
"A bloody disaster?" Someone asked meaningfully: "Is it the bloody disaster I thought about?"
"Who else could it be?" Mrs. Li lowered her voice: "I heard that his mother secretly went to the Prime Minister's Mansion to propose marriage to Miss Jian."
Several people were shocked: "Huh? Didn't everyone say that Miss Jian can't get married in the past few years, otherwise the other party will suffer a bloody disaster?"
"So I went there secretly, saying that I wanted to settle down first and get married in a few years." Mrs. Li lamented: "But the bloody disaster really does not let anyone who covets go. Mrs. Huang put this marriage together again Refunded."
Lu Yan couldn't help laughing when she heard this: "If the marriage fails, then Miss Jian's stepmother will be furious to death?"
Mrs. Li: "You know. How could she not be angry? But rather than being angry, she is probably more worried about her daughter's marriage now."
Lu Yan was confused: "What's there to worry about? Isn't her daughter still young?"
"Miss Jian is only thirteen." Mrs. Li said: "There are still five years before she turns eighteen. Miss Jian cannot get married in five years. How can Miss Jian get past her? If the eldest sister doesn't get married, she won't be able to get married. You have to hold it in, but it will make Mrs. Jian very sad."
Lu Yan loved hearing this kind of gossip and laughed loudly after hearing it. The ladies were also enjoying themselves, chatting and eating snacks. Lu Yan almost finished the plate of spicy peanuts she brought.
"Your peanuts are pretty good." Mrs. Li said, "Put two bottles for me when you leave. I'll buy them."
She didn't ask the price, she just took two bottles.
Several people around him also wanted to take him away.
Lu Yan clapped her hands: "Okay, I'll prepare it for you. Take it with you when you leave later. This plate doesn't cost any money. You can eat whatever you want. I'll grab another one for you that doesn't cost any money."
Not thinking about Shu can be regarded as making money every day. Such a table of noble ladies can eat out a dozen or so taels in an afternoon. Each table in the chess and card room is charged by the hour, one tael of silver for half an hour. Just counting the tables does not count the food. A person can go out with at least five taels of silver in one afternoon.
The cheapest one is the book bar on the fifth floor. A person can sit and read here for a whole day for just one or two silver. However, there are indeed a few ladies who are willing to read here for a whole day. Lu Yan also opened a book borrowing system, where she can borrow books and read them at home during odd hours.
Just a few more days passed like this, and it was the end of the year. At the end of the year, the court began to liquidate, and Liu Hongtu was going to Beijing to report on his duties.
Lu Yan had received Liu Qingyan's letter a long time ago and knew that not only Liu Hongtu was going to Beijing, but the other three members of Lu Sheng's foursome from the county school were also coming.
Because it is already the end of December, and I have to go on the road for about ten days, and I will take the Jinshi exam in February.
Lu Yan was in a trance when she heard the news. Time really flies by!
Lu Sheng was also very happy. After receiving the news, he was preparing to welcome his friends.
Lu Sheng: "Let's arrange a place for them to live then. Is it suitable to live at home?"
Lu Yan: "It's suitable. What's wrong with that? Your house has a private room, which is enough for you to live in. And your kang is spacious enough to sleep four people. You two haven't seen each other for such a long time. How can you still live there?" Let’s have a good chat and talk by candlelight at night.”
After about ten days, Liu Hongtu and the others arrived at the same time. Liu Hongtu had a place in the capital. As soon as they came to the capital, they went straight to the Lu family and were taken into the house by Lu Sheng.
After not seeing each other for a few months, Chu Tiankuo had lost weight again, almost as thin as the rest of them.
Lu Yan was amazed: "You can do it! You can't lose weight any more!"
Xue Zhuoyuan quickly revealed Chu Tiankuo's background: "Shopkeeper Lu, you don't know, he is just tired and can't survive without sleeping!"
Lu Yan: "Ah? Why?"
Song Bowen smiled meaningfully: "Why else? He didn't know who he heard that Mr. Liu might be transferred to the capital next year and take Miss Liu to settle in the capital. His state immediately changed, and he was no longer the indifferent person he had been before. I'm in good shape, the lights are on three times a day and the chickens are on five times every day."
Chu Tiankuo was not embarrassed: "Then what can I do? I don't want to be separated from her, so I can only pass the exam!"
Lu Yan focused on another point: "You said Mr. Liu is going to be transferred to the capital??? Who did you listen to?"
Chu Tiankuo was stunned for a moment: "This is what everyone says!"
