The son of the red mansion is unscrupulous

For a mere boy, the things he casually took out were all rare and precious things.This made Sun Shaozu even more afraid to neglect.

On the second day, Sun Shaozu only used a hairpin, wore only a padded blue silk gown, and brought 2000 taels of silver notes on his body, and did not bring any entourage. He took out the gold watch to look at it, and after taking out the gold watch again, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that the time was approaching the end.Suddenly he felt someone pat him on the shoulder, and when he turned his head, he saw that it was a man with a strange face.

"Wrong person." The man said, and was about to leave.

Sun Shaozu suddenly felt light in his hands, and when he looked back, he saw that the gold watch was gone. He immediately thought that the man with the raw face was either a thief or an accomplice of a thief, so relying on his strong body, he chased after the man with the raw face, and yelled again: : "The man in front is a thief, catch him quickly!"

After yelling, all the passers-by looked over, and even the raw-faced man stood still and shouted, "Where is the thief? Catch the thief!"

Sun Shaozu was stunned, and thought to himself, isn't this a thief?He also thought that someone who could steal something from him should be an old hand, and the person with such a strange face would not be able to find the stolen goods, so he looked towards the East Street again, and saw someone running on the East Street, and hurriedly tucked the long gown into his belt , and chased towards Dongjie.

After chasing him for half a day, he lost his breath and lost his breath. Suddenly he wondered what time it is now?Just as he was thinking, he heard the sound of a golden bell and a copper chime coming from a shop, and then it rang twice.

Sun Shaozu was also quite knowledgeable. When he heard the bell, his heart tightened immediately, and he immediately went to Xue's silk and satin shop. When he arrived at the door of the shop, he saw a green-covered and pearl-tasseled eight-treasure cart going away from a distance. Asked in the shop, sure enough the shopkeeper said: "Our grandma has been sitting for a while, and she has gone."

Sun Shaozu stomped his feet repeatedly.

The shopkeeper said again: "Are you Commander Sun? I heard from Qing'er that he left the watch with Commander Sun?"

Sun Shaozu said embarrassingly: "Just now I was looking at my watch on the street. I didn't want to show off my money, so I asked someone to steal it."

The shopkeeper looked at Sun Shaozu suspiciously.

"Would I still pretend to be a servant?"

The shopkeeper said with a smile: "Admiral Sun likes it, so just keep it. Our family is doing this business, and there are many of them." Seeing some guests coming, he went to entertain them.

Seeing the arrogant attitude of Xue's family, Sun Shaozu suddenly belittled himself, secretly thinking that it was because he thought he had a lot of money, but Yelang was arrogant.Fearing that the Xue family thought he had set a gold watch, and remembered that there was a chime bell in a shop just now, they turned around and went to that shop. Counting the number of shops across the country, there are not ten thousand, but three thousand.So he went into the shop, walked around the room full of imported things, and asked the clerk to show him the gold watch.

Unexpectedly, looking around, none of those watches could compare to the splendor Qinger left him.I knew that I would rather be expensive than cheap, so I urged the man repeatedly: "Don't care about the silver, just take out the best gold watch."

The guy smiled bitterly and said: "Let me tell you first, the best watch is a foreign emperor who pays tribute to our lord, and the lord rewards the prince. If there is an unfilial son in the prince's family, it will be worse every day, so we should be the king of the country." In our pawn shop, the price is beyond the reach of ordinary people."

"Just take out your watch." Although it was already October, Sun Shaozu's forehead was still dripping with sweat.

The waiter hurriedly went to the backyard, and after a while, he saw an old man wearing brocade, who seemed to be very prestigious, came out and said, "My lord, please go to the private seat."

Sun Shaozu chuckled, pretending to be free and easy through the side door, and went to the backyard. After entering the backyard, he entered a room, where he saw foreign furniture made in the same style. There was a crystal curtain in the middle of the room. , sitting a woman who seemed to have known each other before.

"This girl is..." Sun Shaozu hurriedly asked the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper said with a smile: "This is the girl next to our grandma, and it is our Shangfeng."

"Commander Sun, please sit down." The woman behind the curtain came out gracefully and said.

Seeing her pretty and quiet, Sun Shaozu was wearing a big fluffy gauze skirt like a picture of a foreign woman, and a set of tortoiseshell combs inlaid with jewels on her head. It's a girl, and she didn't dare to be negligent, so she quickly lowered her head and asked her to sit on it, and asked after hesitating for a long time: "Miss was also watching a play in Qingxu that day?"

This woman is Hongyu, Hongyu nodded, but did not "reminiscing about the past", only said: "Commander Sun wants the best gold watch?"

"Yes." Sun Shaozu didn't dare to look at Hongyu, but he couldn't help sneaking a peek at it. While thinking about whether the gauze skirt was wearing pants like a foreign woman because of his lustful nature, he thought that this woman might be very different from Miss Jia. close.Hearing a slight sound, he saw the man put a ten-brocade enamel cup by his hand, and the green smoke curled up from the cup, spreading the aroma of the Biluochun tea leaves that the girl took down from the branch into the exquisite house.

Because of some knowledge, he knew the allusion of Biluochun, so Sun Shaozu looked at Hongyu's slender waist, and couldn't help feeling distracted.

"This is the gold watch that came out of the palace. Although it looks like it is decorated with more precious stones than other watches from the outside, it is much more delicate inside than other watches." Hongyu took out a gold watch from a brocade box. Biao Lai saw that Sun Shaozu lost his mind, so he coughed lightly.

"I want it." Sun Shaozu said with a smile, secretly thinking that as expected of the four major families in Jinling, a girl is so amazing.

"3000 taels."

Sun Shaozu was taken aback.

Hongyu wrapped the watch carefully with a handkerchief, and without looking at Sun Shaozu, she laughed and said, "Commander Sun has had tea, let's go."

Sun Shaozu blushed, and when he was about to make a counter-offer, he saw Hongyu with a sneer on his lips, as if he had already decided that he couldn't buy it. Seeing that Hongyu was about to put away the box containing the gold watch, he pressed the box with his left hand, and pulled it from his arms with his right. Zhong took out 2000 taels of silver bills, "Pay the 2000 taels of deposit first, and send someone to send the remaining [-] taels."

"I'm very sorry, but I'm going to show this watch to others right now."

Veins popped up on Sun Shaozu's face, he hesitated for a while, and said to Hongyu: "Please send someone back to the house immediately, and ask my housekeeper to send 1000 taels."

Hongyu laughed and said, "Although we are businessmen, we are always begged by others to sell. There is no reason for us to chase others to buy."

"...Call the buddy, I'll give the buddy another 100 taels." Sun Shaozu gritted his teeth tightly in front of his beauty, and refused to show his timidity.

Only then did Hongyu give in, she nodded and asked the shopkeeper to send someone to Sun's house to fetch the silver.

Sun Shaozu saw that the shopkeeper was sending someone away, and there was only Hongyu left in the room. When he watched her move, the skirt with the whalebone slipped gently over his instep, and he could hardly hold on.

Suddenly there was another chuckle, and then another beautiful woman came in with a pipa in her arms.

"What are you doing here?" Seeing that it was Ping'er, Hongyu intentionally sat down and asked.

Ping'er didn't comb her hair today, but dressed up as a girl. She came in and said with a smile: "Oh, there are still people here, I think I'm the only one." So she sat beside Hongyu and laughed with her. .

One woman, called Sun Shaozu, could hardly hold back, let alone another one.

When Sun Shaozu saw the woman who was later pinching the waist of the woman in the western skirt, he couldn't help looking at the woman's waist, swallowing frequently, wishing to hug the two women in his arms, suddenly his military officer intuition sharpened.

He figured that although Xue's family is a businessman, it is also a rich family with very strict rules. Even if they do business, they will inevitably show their faces, and they will definitely not let the two women be alone with him in a beautiful way. Therefore, the two women The behavior is really strange.

Thinking about it this way, Sun Shaozu was like Liu Xiahui when he ascended, thinking of that peerless face in his heart, he turned indifferent to his surroundings.

After almost a lifetime, finally Sun Shaozu heard a voice, "Commander Sun, the money has been delivered."

Sun Shaozu heaved a long sigh of relief. After seeing Hongyu counting the silver, he handed him the gold watch and said, "Silver and goods are both paid", and took the gold watch to leave.

Before he could go out, he suddenly heard a woman in the compartment of the room say loudly: "You're such a calm girl, Yingchun girl, you really have vision."

Sun Shaozu was overjoyed but tried his best to look surprised. When he turned around, he saw a woman with willow eyebrows and phoenix eyes coming out imposingly wearing red sleeves and a red gold phoenix hairpin.

"Forget it, she's shy, let's talk outside." The woman was Wang Xifeng, she turned her head and glanced at the room she walked out of.

Sun Shaozu was both surprised and delighted, with his head down, he was still doing Liu Xiahui, followed Wang Xifeng out of the room, and hurriedly said: "My next Sun Shaozu, I wonder who this grandma is?"

"This is our Grandma Xue." Hongyu came out and said.

Sun Shaozu glanced into the room from the corner of his eye, sighing repeatedly at his wit, and seeing the shopkeeper bring out the gold watch he lost earlier on a plate, and 3000 taels of silver bills, he hurriedly declined and refused to accept it.

Wang Xifeng smiled and said: "Take it, your little silver is worthy of being called silver?"

Sun Shaozu was overwhelmed by Wang Xifeng's aura of nobility, and became more and more emboldened. Holding the box in his hand, he said helplessly, "Grandma Xue please accept this watch."

"Send it to you."

"How do you make such a precious thing?" Sun Shaozu said hastily.

"This was originally prepared for you."

Finally, Sun Shaozu couldn't help showing a smile at the corner of his mouth, and said to himself, could this be the token of love?Not knowing how to thank Wang Xifeng, Ping'er came out and said, "Grandma, the eldest girl said that Commander Sun is the son of a prince, and his family education must be strict. Today, you teased Commander Sun for a day, so let him go home quickly, so that grandson won't let him go home." My wife is in a hurry."

Sun Shaozu was stunned, Xindao Yingchun didn't know his background?When he was about to explain, he saw Wang Xifeng winking at him again, and hurriedly said to the room: "Girl, Shaozu has gone home." After speaking, he took the 3000 tael gold watch and went out, waiting outside. , saw another Zhulun canopy cart coming out, and watched the Zhulun canopy cart go away in a daze, then went home triumphantly. The handsome young man vented his anger, and after venting his anger, he thought that Miss Jia was really an idiot, so he tried it lightly and cleverly, and rushed to present him with a token of love as if he was a gentleman.

Tossing the gold watch in his hand, he became complacent because he didn't spend a penny after all.Suddenly remembering that Yingchun mistakenly thought he was a prince's son, he frowned, thinking that he should ask Wang Xifeng to explain clearly to Yingchun.

So he asked the housekeeper to ask the Xue family for news.

The butler let it back after going out for an hour, and when he came back, he said to Sun Shaozu with a smile: "Master, Grandma Xue said that ever since the girl from the second bedroom of the Jia family followed the prince by accident, Miss Jia has been angry and wanted to find a good match." Grandma Xue said that Miss Jia is willing to spend 1 taels to see Grandma Xue when she sees that the uncle is sincere; I bought a gold watch at a high price to compensate the servant, and she has already begun to be tempted. But she is not tempted enough at the moment, please be patient, and I will explain when Miss Jia refuses to marry you."

"Grandma Xue is such a transparent person." Sun Shaozu smiled, and then said with doubts: "For no reason, why is Grandma Xue willing to help me?"

The housekeeper said with a smile: "Grandma Xue is frank. She said it clearly. She said that she was afraid that after Miss Jia married someone like Uncle Xian who had the Zhongshun Palace as a backer, the business between Xue and Jia would be in the future. , the Xue family is afraid that they will suffer."

When Sun Shaozu heard this, he smiled coldly, secretly thinking that Grandma Xue was really smart, and she was clearly saying that Sun Shaozu was easy to bully.Then he thought, from this point of view, what Aunt Zhu said was right, as expected, half of the Xue family's business belonged to the Jia family.Thinking about it again, first flatter Grandma Xue, and then talk about it after entering Jia's house.

Because he was determined to flatter Xue's family, Sun Shaozu knew that Grandma Xue would refund him 1 taels for a show to Jia Yingchun, so he ordered the housekeeper to give another 2 taels of silver to Wang Xifeng.

After waiting for three or four days, Sun Shaozu asked around, but he didn't hear anyone mentioning Wang Xifeng's matchmaking to Rongguo Mansion. When he was wondering, he saw the official matchmaker, Aunt Zhu, coming to the door.

Aunt Zhu came to the door with a bundle and a box. She entered the door and went to the front hall. She saw Sun Shaozu sitting with his legs crossed in high spirits, and she congratulated repeatedly.

Sun Shaozu saw that Mrs. Zhu was dressed differently from before, as if she had made a lot of money, so he hurriedly said, "Did you get rich recently?"

"Thanks to the uncle, these are all given by Miss Jia's family." As she spoke, Aunt Zhu untied the burden she had brought and placed it in front of Sun Shaozu, "This is from Miss Jia. 5 taels."

"What are you sending money for?" Sun Shaozu was startled.

Aunt Zhu laughed and said, "Has Commander Sun heard of Du Shiniang?"

Sun Shaozu nodded.

"That Du Shiniang didn't know people clearly, and she sank the treasure chest angrily. Miss Jia said that Commander Sun is an upright gentleman, and the real Liu Xiahui is different from the treacherous Li Jia. She admires your character, so she saved her." Take your own money and send it to Commander Sun to show your sincerity."

Sun Shaozu thought to himself, why did that idiot hand over the money to others so easily?Fortunately, it was given to him. Wouldn't it be a pity if it was given to others?Feeling suspicious, I went to see the box

"This is Miss Jia's treasure chest." Aunt Zhu said, first she unwrapped the red satin-faced bag that wrapped the box, revealing the carved golden nanmu box inside, and placed the boxes in front of Sun Shaozu, one by one. Open one drawer at a time.

Sun Shaozu was dazzled by the brilliance in the drawer, and secretly thought that Du Shiniang's treasure chest was too shabby compared to this.Unconsciously, he felt a little flustered, and deliberately declined and said: "For no reason, what did Miss Jia send all these things for? Could it be that you look down on me, Sun Shaozu?"

Aunt Zhu hurriedly whispered: "Commander Sun, I'm afraid that Miss Jia may have misunderstood, she is still thinking about marrying outside. She secretly hid these things behind her brother's and sister-in-law's backs. Thinking that things will not be cheap for outsiders, she doesn't care about the dowry; if she marries outside, her brother and sister-in-law will have to worry about it. If her brother and sister-in-law know that she is so considerate, I am afraid that the dowry will be reduced by [-]%. It's better to bring the things to Sun's house first."

"Marry in?" Sun Shaozu was in high spirits, hearing the news, it was like five thunderbolts.

It's just that a girl's family can save so much money. The wealth of Jia's family is beyond his expectations.For such a wealthy family, he should go in and have children to inherit Jia's family business. How can he ask her to condescend and marry him?

"Why did Miss Jia marry?" Sun Shaozu's hands behind his back trembled slightly.

Aunt Zhu said with a smile: "You don't know, Mr. Jia also has a son from a concubine. Miss Jia is soft-hearted, and she is afraid that if she stays at home, the brothers will fight against each other in the future. I am sorry for Mr. Jia."

"Idiot! Idiot! I can't help you!" Sun Shaozu murmured in his heart.
