[Rebirth] Deep house raising dumplings

Not long after arriving at the bank, Wanxiang sneaked out while her cousin was busy.According to shopkeeper Chen, Mrs. Han happened to be in Guining these few days, and she was in Taimen Town with her husband. After Wanxiang left the bank, she went straight to Bai Zhi's grocery store.

Six years later, the alleys along the river are still the same, but they seem to be dilapidated again.The grocery store, which had been a few customers before, was refurbished up and down, and it was no longer in business. It was changed into a house with white walls and black tiles, which stood out among the dilapidated two-story bungalows.

For Miss Xi Er's unexpected arrival, Bai Zhi seemed to have expected it, and welcomed Wan Xiang into the door without being very surprised.Bai Zhi has been pregnant for more than six or seven months, her stomach was not visible before, so she didn't say much, now it's time to let the servant girl support her, but she doesn't look very rich, her face is a little swollen, It doesn't look as harsh as before.

Followed out together, and his father.Although she dressed more expensively, she always maintained a respect for Xi's family. When she saw Xi Wanxiang, she looked at Xi Wanxiang with a bit of fear in her astonishment. Come out to entertain Wanxiang.

It was inevitable to exchange pleasantries for a while, Xi Wanxiang never saw Bai Zhi's mother, but when the words came to her lips, thinking of the plague before, she still didn't ask.Unexpectedly, Bai Zhi didn't hold back, seeing Wan Xiang's strangeness, she took the initiative to smile and said that her mother had died of illness before.

Xi Wanxiang couldn't help sighing, thinking of the past few times when she came here as a guest, Bai Zhi's mother was very polite and enthusiastic, making people feel that even if she is in a dilapidated situation, as long as there is human kindness, she will be very warm .It's just that the sea has changed, and even the house is not the original, let alone the people.

Taking a sip of tea, Xi Wanxiang didn't have time to feel sad, so she shook Bai Zhi's hand with a light smile, and said, "Our sisters haven't seen each other for many days, and we should have a good time to catch up, but now we really feel the urgency. Let you and Mr. Han help."

Xi Wanxiang said this very plainly, and she didn't say it to Mr. Han who was serving Bai Zhi with tea and water. She knew that Bai Zhi was almost in charge in the Han family, so saying a word was much more effective than Mr. Han beside her. .Besides, according to the previous conversations, Wan Xiang felt that for Bai Zhi, it seemed that it was not useful for her to talk about the old relationship sincerely. On the contrary, it seemed that discussing the relationship between them was of some benefit to her and the Han family. There was a sparkle of interest in his eyes.

I am afraid that he can be an excellent businessman.Xi Wanxiang thought with some regret.

Hearing Wan Xiang's words, Bai Zhi thought, this is finally getting to the point.He supported his stomach with a smile, straightened up, frowned, and told Mr. Han, who was standing in the way, to get out of here.Mr. Han laughed, and obediently sat beside him, not to disturb the two of them.

"I probably know what you're talking about. Didn't you tell us the last time you were at Chen's cloth workshop? Did you want us to hand over all the business of delivering cloth to Boss Chen? After thinking about it, Mr. Lang and I have decided that we are willing to help you with this." Bai Zhi knew very well that Xi's cloth shop had declined a lot due to the sale of palace silk, and its reputation was not as good as it used to be.Doing business is all about the principle of being sharp-eyed and quick-handed, and the wind blows the grass. Now that Xijiabufang can't hold on, it will naturally turn against Boss Chen. Even if Xi Wanxiang doesn't come to the door in person today, they will did this.

As she said that, Bai Zhiqian smiled cleverly, shook Wan Xiang's hand back, looked at Wan Xiang's slender hand, and said with a smile, "Look at you, you are so thin now, your hands are not as soft as before. It’s already fourteen, so why do you always worry about these things? Why don’t you marry a good family like me, help your husband’s family with things, and have a status.”

Wan Xiang raised her eyebrows noncommittally, and said: "It's great that my sister can help. However, this is just one of them. Wan Xiang also wants to ask the Han family to come forward and help the Chen family borrow money in the name of the Han family."

Bai Zhi couldn't help but pause, and raised her head cautiously to look at the still childish Miss Xi Er, but she was so determined, her clear almond eyes were round, revealing a trustworthy composure.

Seeing that Bai Zhi was hesitant, Xi Wanxiang smiled and said: "Of course you won't suffer. Boss Chen is not a stingy person. I have already discussed with him. He agreed to pay the Han family a certain amount of silver. Of course, the exact amount is up to you." After you discuss it, we will decide."

As soon as the words fell, a chubby figure came to the door.Boss Chen of the Cloth Shop smiled happily and bowed his hands to the people in the room.

Bai Zhi's heart became clear immediately, and she glanced at Miss Xi Er, only to feel that her mind was a little timid at such a young age.Calling Boss Chen over directly, he couldn't help but say nothing, and didn't give Bai Zhi any room for maneuver.

Looking at it this way, it seems that it is really imminent, but Bai Zhi is still a little puzzled - what is he anxious about?Ms. Xi Er is not the head of the family, and Boss Chen has managed the cloth shop, isn't it a matter of all disadvantages and no benefits for her Xi family?It was the same thing about the palace silk at that time, Xi Wanxiang revealed it from his own mouth, and asked Boss Chen to let him spread the news about the cloth workshop selling palace silk to the magistrate after he had his own instructions. middle.It's really strange.

Before he could get to the bottom of it, Boss Chen took the initiative to discuss the middle price difference with Bai Zhi.Boss Chen has been in business for so many years, so it is natural that the ten or twenty taels of silver is not bad. If he cannot get a loan from the local bank, he can only transport the money all the way from Yongzhou, which will take three days. The bandit was rampant, and he was robbed once before. It was a trivial matter to lose the money. Boss Chen was scared out of his wits. He didn't dare to take this risk!Therefore, when Miss Xi Er talked about it with him, she readily agreed.

As far as Bai Zhi is concerned, although she feels a little awkward in her heart, it is good to earn some money for no reason.Loaning money is nothing more than a simple effort, besides, Boss Chen directly put two ingots of snow-patterned silver on the table, this gleaming white is really attractive.Bai Zhi was dazzled by the two ingots of silver, and her mouth was quick, regardless of the three sevens and twenty ones, and agreed.

After accepting the two ingots of silver, Bai Zhi supported her stomach again, and accompanied by Young Master Han, sent the two of them out the door.

Looking at Miss Xi's slender back, Bai Zhi couldn't help being a little dazed. The light yellow pleated skirt was a little long, and she swung it with every step, like a spring flower blooming timidly.But it's the little girl who looks like this and feels ignorant of the world, but always has her own ideas like that, when she was studying together in the academy, although it was fun, and she was beaten on the back by the master, but she learned like that Quickly, leaning over the desk to practice calligraphy, the small body sat upright.At that time, Wan Xiang had a cousin who loved her and came to pick her up every day.Everything is perfectly enviable and enviable.

Thinking of this cousin sister-in-law, Bai Zhi was startled, as if she understood something.She weighed the silver in her hand, thinking, maybe this girl also cares about someone?Yes, how can a person live without someone he cares about?The appearance of that sister-in-law, Bai Zhi has been blurred, I only remember that she is an extremely gentle and dignified girl, who can melt people's hearts when she smiles.

In that big mansion, intrigue is probably commonplace, so it is reasonable for Miss Xi Er to do these things for herself and for the people she cares about.Bai Zhi casually asked Mr. Han, and learned that Xi's cloth shop was taken care of by her aunt, so she nodded in satisfaction and walked in.

Unexpectedly, Miss Xi Er, who is so pure, like a fairy who does not eat fireworks, can also do such fighting things in secret.Thinking about it, Bai Zhi felt much more comfortable and balanced.

Soon, Xi Xuyao ​​took over Aunt Feng's hand and started to manage the two cloth shops again.It's just that as soon as he took up his post, he learned from the manager that the Han family, who used to deliver fabrics for the cloth workshop, turned their faces and denied anyone, saying that they felt that Xi's cloth workshop had a bad reputation now, and the good birds had to choose a tree to live in. Well, let alone business.Xi Xuyao ​​was so angry that he almost smashed the lid of the teacup in his hand.

On the other side, Mr. Han came to the door in person and borrowed 150 taels of silver in the name of the Yongzhou Han family's business of chariot and horse transportation for generations.

Yin Chan was a little puzzled about the Han family's loan, so he questioned him for an hour or two.Although Mr. Han looked honest and honest, and not good at words, he spoke in a clear and orderly manner, and Yin Yang couldn't help but not believe it.

Xi Wanxiang leaned intimately beside his sister-in-law, pretending to nibble on melons, and listened silently until the sister-in-law agreed to loan the money to Mr. Han, then he breathed a sigh of relief.It seems that Mr. Han is quite reliable. I told him before that he must not reveal that he ordered it. Mr. Han really pretended to be the truth.

Originally, this matter was over, but after returning to the house, Yin Yang learned that the Han family was unwilling to continue to cooperate with the cloth workshop, and also heard that another cloth workshop in the town——Chen's cloth workshop opened for business at the end of the month. The doubts that were so easily reduced came back to my mind, these things happened one after another, and the connection among them made people feel inexplicably strange.

Thinking about it, Yin Tang looked at Wan Xiang beside him for no reason.

Wan Xiang sensed her sister-in-law's gaze, raised her eyes, and exchanged a glance with her, suddenly felt a little guilty, so she quickly put a chicken leg into the sister-in-law's bowl.

do not care!Anyway, all he did was for his cousin, even if she saw through, at worst, he would be reprimanded.

Seeing her cousin's running the business in a tepid manner, and with the pressure from all directions in the house, Wan Xiang was anxious for her.Xi Wanxiang is impatient, can't wait, and can't bear it.

The only person who worried me was my grandmother.Grandmother is also a person with a clear heart, she has seen so many things, if Wanxiang's small actions now reveal something accidentally, Old Madam Xi will definitely be able to see the tricks from it.

Fortunately, Wan Xiang's worries were quickly dispelled by the news from Jiang Ning.

On the day of Awakening of Insects, Jiang Ning has a fast horse to report.In the name of "suppressing ill-gotten wealth and making things go smoothly", the rebel army ransacked Jiangning, and the Xi family could not escape this disaster.Xi Yuanzhen resisted fiercely, and was stabbed to death by the bandit-like leader of the rebel army.When the manager Ah Yong heard the news and rushed back from other places, Xi Yuanzhen's body had already been lying on the spot for four or five days.

The entire Xi family, and even the entire Jiangning, are in a mess and everything is desolate.

Cousin: I heard that you all want me to receive lunch?

Wan Xiang: Just go, don't hinder me and my cousin sister-in-law from hugging and giving out candy. (￣▽￣)~*
