[Rebirth] Deep house raising dumplings

The young master of the Du family was leisurely serving green tea, skimming the tea leaves and preparing to put it in his mouth, when a cardamom girl hurriedly rushed out from the back hall, tugging at a servant's sleeve.Young Master Du choked down his throat with a sip of tea, and was almost scalded to death.

I saw that this little girl was not tall, but she was exquisite and delicate, with smooth skin and clear eyes, she looked like a mountain elf.Du Gongzi stared blankly. When I was doing business with my father, I saw many beautiful girls, but they were all full of dust, and the beauty was beautiful. I always felt artificial.And although this girl is young, the spiritual energy permeating her body is completely natural.

Noticing the pair of eyes staring directly at her, Xi Wanxiang glanced at Mr. Du, a dude, he stares blankly when he sees a pretty girl, no wonder his family property has been ruined.Thinking contemptuously, Wan Xiang glared at him, raised her neck, and dragged the stumbling servant out of the bank.

The cousin sister-in-law was in front, walking in a hurry.Wan Xiang was not in a hurry to go forward to ask, she just followed her cousin's sister-in-law far away, and asked the boy in a low voice: "So how much money has our bank raised in total?"

The boy spread his hands: "How can I know such details as a servant, I only know that there is a small change of 200 taels. Our bank has eight stores in ten villages, except Yongzhou Bank, which is the largest, so the surrounding towns If you want to do business, you have to come to us to borrow money. For a while, the money scattered outside the merchants can't be said to be recovered..."

Xi Wanxiang bit her lower lip, and also seemed a little worried: "Did that sister-in-law ever say something else? You can't just sell jewelry or something like that?"

The boy frowned into the word "Chuan", and after thinking about it for a moment, he said: "Yes, yes! Yesterday, the young lady was discussing with the people who work in the bank, and it seemed that she wanted to increase the interest rate of the money deposited in the bank by half. It can attract more people to come to deposit, and the interest rate of lending can also be increased, so that our bank can have more cash. In addition, the young lady also said that some invoices can be issued and sold After that, the money will be taken back, and a year later, people will bring the list to the bank to exchange money, and they can exchange for more money.”

Xi Wanxiang was taken aback by the cousin's idea, and hurriedly dragged the boy and said, "Good idea! Why didn't you do it?"

The boy sighed: "I can't just do it, at least I have to inform the old lady, and if the old lady agrees, it can be implemented slowly. Besides, so much money can't be gathered in a short time. Now that you guys have no time to take care of yourself, how can you have spare money to buy those tickets. It seems that the remaining 100 taels must be made up by the young lady."

Xi Wanxiang grabbed her hair, and seeing the figure of the sister-in-law gradually disappearing, she hurriedly said to the boy: "Go and stop the sister-in-law, and tell her that there is something urgent at Du's house, and the people waiting at the bank have already left first." Yes, we agreed to come back to withdraw the money in a month."

"What?" The boy didn't react, and was a little dazed for a moment.

"Hurry up! I have my own plan." Xi Wanxiang was so anxious that she almost kicked him in the ass.

"Okay, okay!" The servant hurriedly responded, and ran towards the direction where Mrs. Xi left.

So when the two returned to the bank, the mighty group of people really disappeared, and only Xi Wanxiang was left wandering in the hall, holding a copper pot with one hand to pour water for herself, and when she heard the voice of her sister-in-law returning, she went He raised his head happily, shook his hand, and accidentally poured hot boiling water onto his hand.

At first, he was full of suspicions, but after being scalded by Wanxiang, Yin Tang couldn't ask any more questions, so he held on to her hand distressedly, and ordered the servant to hurry down and bring over the burn ointment.

There was a burning pain in the hand, and soon there were several large and small blisters in the place where it was burned just now, and the pain was excruciating when touched.

After washing Wanxiang's hands with well water in the backyard, Yin Tang took the ointment brought by the boy, dug some out with a small spoon, spread it on his fingertips, and carefully applied it to the blisters on the back of his hands.

Seeing that Wan Xiang was silent and speechless, Yin Tang knew that she had cried out in pain a thousand times in her heart, but she just gritted her teeth and didn't make a sound, probably because she didn't want to worry herself.Yin Tang glanced at Wan Xiang, there was a thin layer of sweat on the little girl's forehead, and there were tears in her eyes, but she still gritted her teeth with a pale face and said nothing.The hand couldn't help being softer, and he quickly bandaged her hand, then touched her face with a smile, and comforted: "This is the ointment I took from me. The burn is the most effective, and it will be fine tomorrow."

Xi Wanxiang let out a long breath, nodded, raised her swollen hands to her eyes, and finally laughed: "Sister-in-law, do you still remember that I was beaten on the back by the old master? It was you who applied the ointment for me at that time. "

Yin Yang got up: "Of course I remember, your hand was swollen much higher than now, like a steamed bun."

Xi Wanxiang stuck out her tongue, and Yin Tang walked out of the backyard holding her other intact hand.

After having lunch with her cousin in Qian Zhuang, Xi Wanxiang yelled to go back for a lunch break, so she went back alone.The boy who had just been sent to call Yin Yang was full of curiosity, and wanted to ask Miss Xi Er how she managed to make the persistent debt collector, the young master of the Du family, go home obediently.It's just that when Miss Xi Er saw him coming out with her, she glared at him, slapped him and pushed him back, asking him to help the young lady manage the bank, and threatened that if she revealed what happened just now to Young Madam, she let herself pack up and go home.The boy stared wide-eyed, and had no choice but to swallow the doubts that came to his mouth.

That's all, a lady is a lady, so naturally there is a clever way.If you are a servant yourself, you only need to obey the orders.Thinking about it, the boy was relieved.

After returning to Xi's house, Xi Wanxiang waited for a while at the door of Mrs. Xi.

When the old lady woke up from her lunch break, Wan Xiang happily approached the old lady, lying obediently beside her bed and looking at her eagerly with her eyes.Seeing that Mrs. Xi felt strange, she smiled and asked Wan Xiang: "What's the matter? I didn't see you in the morning, but now I'm hesitant to talk, and I say what I have to say. Grandma died because of you." Come back, just ask what you want."

"Really?" Wan Xiang loved hearing these words, so she immediately became happy, hugged Mrs. Xi's arm and kept rubbing it, "I know that grandma treats Wan Xiang the best!"

"Oh, this girl..." Mrs. Xi grinned with a rare smile, and was a little dizzy from being shaken by Wan Xiang, and hurriedly said, "You haven't said anything yet, if it's against the law to steal your husband, grandma I don't agree."

Rob, steal your husband?Could it be that she looks like such a girl who robs a woman from a good family (?)!

Xi Wanxiang was a little depressed, pursed her mouth, straightened her body, and after a moment of deliberation, she told Mrs. Xi in detail what the cousin sister-in-law was going to do in the bank.She didn't know many details about how her cousin's plan was. She just got involved in the way of bonds and stocks that she had been in contact with in her previous life, and combined with the current situation to adapt to local conditions. Not doing well, arriving late and leaving early, always being caught by the leader and reprimanded as a typical example, but I still understand the routine, and it is not a problem to fool the old lady.

However, what Xi Wanxiang didn't expect was that she seemed to have spoken too perfectly, which aroused the suspicion of the old lady.

Just as Xi Wanxiang was looking at the old lady complacently, the old lady Xi gradually put away the smile on her face, and her wrinkled face looked a little serious: "Did Yin really tell you this?"

Wan Xiang was a little terrified by the old lady's stare, and suddenly thought that maybe she shouldn't do this for her cousin.The sister-in-law was so thoughtful, she chose not to confess to the old lady at the moment, of course she had her reasons, and she was just a young girl who hadn't experienced much in the world, so how could the sister-in-law talk to herself in such detail?On the contrary, it makes people doubt the authenticity of the matter and the reliability of the cousin's work.

I haven't been in touch with my grandmother for several years, and I completely forgot that she is also the person who has been in charge of the family for so many years.

Xi Wanxiang regretted it secretly, but she was in a dilemma, so she had to take a step back and said very seriously: "These are indeed what my sister-in-law said, but she never mentioned it to Wanxiang. My sister-in-law is cautious, but she has done a lot in the bank. The old helper discussed that today Du's family came to ask for 300 taels of silver, and Wan Xiang learned from the helper that the cousin's sister-in-law had such thoughts. Wan Xiang thinks that Tang's sister-in-law's idea is really good. If she has thought carefully before telling you, she will have to wait a few more days. The situation is urgent and it is urgent to restore the bank's business, so Wan Xiang hastily hid it from Tang My sister-in-law and grandma have made it clear... If Wan Xiang is wrong, if she is reckless and aggressive, please grandma, don't blame my cousin."

After finishing speaking, Xi Wanxiang looked at the old lady timidly, until the old lady's slender eyebrows were relaxed, and Wanxiang let go of the big stone in her heart.

When Mrs. Xi asked Wanxiang to go out, she didn't say much, she only said that she would think about it carefully.When Xi Wanxiang walked out of the room, she realized that her palms were already covered with sweat.

After dinner, the little maid serving the old lady called Yin Tang into the old lady's room, saying that the old lady had something to say to her.

Xi Wanxiang's ears were very sharp, and when she heard her cousin was called, she hurriedly followed her secretly, and after she entered the door, she lay down on the crack of the door to eavesdrop.

But it is a pity that Mrs. Xi's body is weak, her voice is very weak, and her cousin doesn't talk too much, what Wan Xiang can hear is a few simple "yes" and "understood" and other meaningless words. Fragmentary words.

From being uneasy at the beginning, to getting more and more boring.Xi Wanxiang simply gave up eavesdropping and sat alone on the porch in front of the door, staring at the withered weeds in the courtyard in a daze.It's winter now, even though I wear a lot of clothes, it's still a bit cold after sitting outside for a long time.

So when Yin Chan pushed the door and came out, he looked up and saw Wan Xiang was rubbing his hands to keep warm.Seeing that her eyes lit up, she jumped up from the wooden bench and jumped in front of him, her eyes were dark, as if she was eager to ask something, but she didn't dare to ask directly, Yin Chan was moved. Terrible, but still pretending to be indifferent, and asked her lightly: "Who told you to do this?"

It's over, it seems that the grandmother didn't agree, and she confessed herself, and maybe she even gave her sister-in-law a scolding...

Xi Wanxiang's tense heartstrings suddenly broke with a "snap", which was really superfluous, and kindness did not help.She blamed herself and felt sad, she didn't dare to look into her sister-in-law's eyes, she slowly lowered her head, and said in a voice like a mosquito, "Sister-in-law, Wan Xiang was wrong... You taught me that kindness is like water, and you should do the right thing at the right time." But I am so self-righteous and ruined your plan..."

The cousin's sister-in-law gave a shallow smile from above her head, and before Wan Xiang could react, she was hugged tightly by the cousin's sister-in-law.

Um?what's the situation?Xi Wanxiang's eyes widened immediately, even if she didn't blame her, a soft-spoken lecture would be inevitable, but what she was waiting for was... a hug?

"Your grandmother handed over the entire bank to the sister-in-law. She said, let me do what she wants to do. The only request is that you come with me." Yin Chan's voice was trembling, and his warm breath was soft Gently brushing against Wanxiang's ear, it was like a light sigh, "Thank you, little Wanxiang."
