Brother Beggar refuses to beg

At the same time, in the boudoir of the Zhuang Mansion across the street, Miss Zhuang's personal servant girl hurried in and said in a panic, "Miss, that guy surnamed Kang has gone to the Yin Mansion to propose marriage!"

"What?!" Miss Zhuang Jia slipped her hand and smashed a box of rouge, "That idiot, we can't wait a few more days! Find someone to stop him!"

"It's too late, he has been invited into Yin's residence!" The servant girl was helpless, so she came to report, "What should I do now, miss? If Mr. Yin finds out that it's us..."

Miss Zhuang Jia gave her a sharp look, and shouted: "What are you panicking about! You can go to Yin's mansion to help me send a letter to Miss Yin, come here with your ear, and I will tell you to listen to me."

The big maid hurriedly approached, and Miss Zhuang Jia whispered something in her ear. After hearing this, her complexion changed, and she said with some hesitation, "But in this way, Young Master Yin may annoy her. The thought you have spent on her these days Isn't it all worth it?"

The young lady patiently accompanied that country girl every day, and tried her best to please her. First, she often went in and out of Yin's mansion for excuses, to show her face in front of Young Master Yin, and to get the moon first.The second is that after marrying into Yin's family in the future, he will draw his sister-in-law to his side to fight against the original husband and wife.

At this time, Yin Xiaomei was confiding in the young lady, but the young lady told her to do this.Next, Xiaomei Yin will soon find out the truth, and she will definitely hate the young lady by then. The big maid doesn't understand why the young lady chooses to deal with it like this.

"You, you are short-sighted and have no brains. Fortunately, you are still loyal to protect the Lord." Miss Zhuangjia gave her a white look, "I am willing to give up Miss Yin, so I have my reasons. Didn't you take the things back yesterday? I What is lacking now is an opportunity, if today's things come true, we will have the best opportunity."

During the period of friendship with Yin Xiaomei, she went to Yin's house frequently, and she couldn't attract Yin Su's attention at all. The relationship between their brother and sister seemed to be not good.

Yin Su's business is busy on weekdays, and he is rarely in the mansion during the day, and Yin's mansion does not welcome female guests. Even with Yin Xiaomei as an excuse, it is difficult for her to stay in the mansion for a while.

She was negligent about the matter of Kang Xiucai, she didn't expect that the other party would lose face as a scholar, but this matter is not without room for change.

The more she thought about it, the more confident she became, she said a few more words about her plan, and the maid couldn't help but sigh in admiration: "Miss, you are really smart and unparalleled in wisdom."

"Don't be so glib here, don't hurry up, if you're one step too late, all previous efforts will be wasted, and see if I don't take your skin off." Although she was stern on her lips, Miss Zhuang was very happy in her heart, and there was a smile on the corner of her mouth.

The servant girl knew her temper well, and she could really do what she said, so she hurriedly took her orders and left.

In the side hall of the Yin Mansion, Yin Su and Xie Chen, who had just finished their breakfast, were entertaining distinguished guests.Yang Heng, the magistrate of Yecheng, has been frequenting the house since the housewarming banquet, and his attitude is the same as that of the Duan family back then.

Yang Heng was alone in the court, unlike the previous magistrate who had a backing behind him, everyone thought that he was nearly forty years old, and being a county magistrate was the end of it.Unexpectedly, he knows heroes with his eyesight, so he bet all his treasures on the upstart Duan's family who suddenly appeared, and in the end he won the bet, turning around in a flash.

The Marquis of the Duan family is now in the frontier with a heavy army in his hands. He only won a battle last winter, and he is being appreciated by the emperor.Miss Duan's family is the honor of the princess, and she is deeply loved by the queen and queen mother. She is still living in the palace, and she is reluctant to let her move back to the princess mansion.

Even Duan Yu, the second young master of the Duan family who had the least sense of presence before, should not be underestimated.Although it is said that the dandy has returned to the dandy, and there are even rumors of discord with his siblings, but with his official position, he has become a confidant in front of the crown prince.

Many people in Yecheng are guessing whether the old fox Yang Heng has seen something. Could it be that the Yin family has the potential to become the second Duan family?

It's a pity that the current status of the Yin family is not high enough. Some real dignitaries did not participate in the last housewarming banquet. Otherwise, when they saw the wife of the Yin family, they would know why Yang Heng turned into a dog leg again.

"Mr. Xie, if you are interested in the salt wells in Gongzhen, I can help you to deal with it, and maybe you can get the salt." Yang Heng heard that Xie Chen recently inquired about the salt wells, so he took the initiative to mention it when he visited today. stand up.

There is a salt well in Gong Town under Yecheng, which produces a lot of salt. If you can get the qualification to sell salt and transport it to Fanbang in the west where there is a shortage of salt, the profit will be very considerable.

Xie Chen didn't hide it. Many people can't use this way of making money.First of all, salt and iron are the lifeblood of a country, and it is very difficult to obtain a salt sales permit.Secondly, the Fanbang in Dayuan facing the southwest and then going west rarely communicates with the outside world, the road is difficult, and the local people are fierce and xenophobic. Most people dare not go, and they cannot go.

Unexpectedly, Yang Heng would take the initiative to talk about this matter, Xie Chen was a little surprised. With his official position, it is still difficult to get Yan Yin, why would he make trouble for himself?

"Prefect Yang, do you have a solution?" Yin Su heard from Xie Chen that it was not easy to sell salt, but unexpectedly, someone came to his door, and he wanted to see what kind of medicine was sold in the prefect's gourd.

"This matter..."

Just as Yang Heng was about to open his mouth, servants of the Yin family came to report in a hurry, saying that there was a scholar-like man outside who claimed to be a scholar, surnamed Kang, and wanted to see the master of the Yin family.

Yin Su turned his head and glanced at Xie Chen. The two of them knew each other. They pretended to be displeased and said, "Didn't you see that we are discussing with the magistrate? I really don't know the importance. Let him take him to the main hall and wait until we finish entertaining him." Let's talk again, honored guest."

The two guests came at the same time, their status and status were very different, everyone knew which was more important, Yin Su's choice was normal.Let Kang Xiucai, who has never met before, entertain the magistrate of a city first, but also give him a warning first, let him calm down, and think about how he should speak later.

If it's really that lowly way of forcing marriage, don't blame the Yin family for not saving him any face.

It's just that Yin Su and Xie Chen don't know how to predict the future, and they didn't expect Miss Zhuang Jia to do some tricks behind the scenes, which directly triggered a series of things that followed.

After discussing about Yanyin and sending Yang Heng away, Yin Su sent someone to call Yin Xiaomei to the front yard, saying that he wanted to test how well she learned etiquette these days.

Then, he and Xie Chen went to the main hall to meet Kang Xiucai who had been sitting and waiting for an hour.

Kang Xiucai is not very good-looking, and he has the bookish air of a scholar, but when we met for the first time, Yin Su felt more hypocrisy and arrogance.

As soon as he came up, he first reported his family name, and then he bluntly stated the purpose of coming, saying that he and Yin Xiaomei knew each other well, and the two of them had reached the point where they would not marry unless they were Qing, and they would not marry unless they were kings. He hoped that Yin Su could help them.

"Little sister can only live well if she is with me. I am different from her previous vulgar husband's family. I have read thousands of books and have a reputation. If the Ming Dynasty goes further, the younger sister will be Mrs. Juren , Of course, it's not impossible for a Jinshi wife." Kang Xiucai said happily, completely oblivious to Yin Su's perfunctory attitude.

He thinks he is very talented, but he was not reborn into a wealthy family, so he had to marry a rich wife to help him. Yin Xiaomei was a married man before, so he would have lowered his status if he wanted to marry.

Xie Chen looked calm, but in fact he was very displeased. This person seemed to be saying that the two were in love with each other, but both inside and outside the words revealed that Yin Xiaomei was someone who had divorced before, and he was already willing to marry her. It means condescension.

"At that time, you can put all the land in my name, so that you don't have to pay the court's tax, and my little sister will have a good home again. Wouldn't it kill two birds with one stone?"

Kang Xiucai was still chattering, Xie Chen interrupted him: "If you sincerely come to ask for a marriage, why don't you follow the rules, so you don't know etiquette? Even if our Yin family is a small family, there are no three books and six Li, always ask a matchmaker to come to propose marriage first."

Being robbed, Kang Xiucai was very upset, Xie Chen happened to poke his sore foot.The Kang family was originally from a poor family. In order to provide for him to study and test his fame, the family has long been destitute, so there is no money to ask a matchmaker to propose marriage.

"Please go back, you are not qualified enough to ask to marry a lady from my Yin family." Yin Su coldly ordered to chase away guests, "Dial boat, see off guests."

The valet standing beside him had been acting as a backdrop, and when his name was called, he immediately stood in front of Kang Xiucai with his chest straightened out, and chased away the visitor without any politeness: "Master Xiucai, please!"

Hearing the servant's ironic tone, Kang Xiucai got angry, stood up and took out something from his bosom, and said with a sneer: "Mr. Yin, the relationship between me and Lingmei is done. If I don't get the love in my heart, I really don't want it." Know what impulsive things you will do."

"If you really love her, you shouldn't do such a shameless act." Xie Chen turned his head, not to look at sister-in-law's private things.

"You don't agree with this marriage, so I have no choice but to make a bad plan. Between my face and reputation, I will naturally choose her." Kang Xiucai was obviously selfish, but she put on an appearance of deep affection.

It was the first time Yin Su faced such a shameless person in person, and said angrily: "Then you never thought that you took out this thing, just to ruin a woman's reputation, and even risk her life?"

Seeing that he was angry, Kang Xiucai calmed down a bit, and said: "Kang knows that this time is a big gamble, betting that Mr. Yin, if you value your face and your younger sister, you will agree to the marriage. Then naturally you will live in peace. , tied the knot."

He had a good plan. If Yin Su disagreed, he would be harming his sister.Once word of the affair between the two got out, Yin Xiaomei was completely ruined, and the Yin family must also be disgraced.

Anyway, apart from this bit of fame, he has nothing left, and he can't survive anymore. Money is not as important as face.How did Kang Xiucai know that Yin Su and Xie Chen had already prepared, and Yin Xiaomei behind the screen heard everything clearly.

Seeing her constantly changing expression, Xiu Zhu felt that something was wrong, but he didn't have a clue for a while.
