Weak Concubine [Qing Wear + Red House]

Xue Baochai blocked her second brother?

Jin Yao couldn't sit still anymore, she stood up "teng":

"Give me a cloak, and I'll take a look."

"It's about this time, I'm afraid everyone is gone, girl, don't worry, it's not too late to ask someone first before going." Sun Nanny persuaded.

"Yes, girl, I'm good at qinggong. I'll go out and have a look. I'll call you when someone is around." Jin Ling said softly.

Jinyao also calmed down a lot now, and took a few steps on the ground:

"Jinling, go out and have a look, wear something thicker."

"Yes!"

"If you see someone is still there, invite them in and bring them to me."

"Okay, girl, I'm leaving."

"Go."

Jin Yao sat down imposingly:

"I want to see what she wants to do."

What could Xue Baochai want to do?

She wanted to find someone to rely on, so that her family could stand upright.

Although their family is an imperial merchant, the name of this imperial merchant is no longer on their branch.

Her brother only knows how to eat, drink, prostitute, and gamble. In the past one or two years, some shopkeepers in the family saw that he was fooling him and had already emptied out several shops.

The communication during this period is not fruitless, at least she has more information, but recently she has heard that the fourth elder brother is in charge of rectifying the imperial merchants, and any potential merchant family with a certain background can apply to become an imperial merchant.

For her, this is a great event. She doesn't want her family to prosper again, she just wants to regain her qualifications as an imperial merchant. off the shelf.

However, the fourth elder brother was not something she could cling to, so she thought of Nian Gengyao, who had a good relationship with the fourth elder brother.

After all, they were also somewhat intimate, and begging him was always easier than begging someone else, plus other plans, and it was here.

Originally, she wanted to post a post for Jinyao to come to visit officially, but it's a pity that Jinyao didn't want to see her anymore after she and Jinmiao had a mess at the last year's family banquet, and never talked to her alone and played together Pass.

I'm afraid I won't see anyone posting a post, so I thought of blocking Nian Gengyao at the door. In the cold weather, Nian Gengyao waited at the west corner gate where he used to go in and out during his usual off-duty hours, but I didn't expect her to wait.

Nian Gengyao had an impression of Xue Baochai. He was the niece of the second aunt's family. He had met her a few times, but his impression was mediocre.But after hearing what happened at home from my sister, I didn't feel very good about her. Such a calculating girl should stay away from her innocent and lovely sister, and don't teach her sister badly.

Now when I saw her at the door of my house, I thought she was looking for my sister, so I stopped to ask.

He didn't expect Yiwen to come looking for him, which surprised him.

"What is Miss Xue looking for next?"

"This……"

"If it's inconvenient to talk about it, it's cold, Miss Xue should go back to the house earlier." After finishing speaking, he closed the car window and entered the house.

"Wait!" Xue Baochai hurried forward to stop her.

"Second Brother Nian, I heard that the imperial court is about to rectify the imperial merchants, do you want to release some places?"

Nian Gengyao glanced at her in surprise, he didn't expect that she came to him for this matter.

"There is such a rumor."

"Then, can you introduce my family to the fourth prince? Don't worry, it won't be in vain. After the matter is completed, our family's business can hand over three layers of pure profits to you in the future."

Nian Gengyao didn't answer her words, but asked instead:

"This kind of thing should be discussed by your brother, why did you come?"

If her brother can do things, why should she worry about it?

Xue Baochai thought that Nian Gengyao was worried that she could not be the master, so he hurriedly said:

"Don't worry, Brother Nian, I'm in charge of this matter. If you don't believe me, you can write a document for my brother to sign."

Nian Gengyao shook his head, sighed, and said with some pity:

"Go back, it's cold, take care of yourself!"

After finishing talking, call Fengshou to enter the mansion.

Xue Baochai held on to the car window, waiting to be entangled, when Jinling came out, came to salute Nian Gengyao first, then looked at Xue Baochai, with stern eyes but soft tone:

"Hello Miss Xue, our girl knows that the girl is outside the house, so I specially asked the servants to pick you up, so that the servants will not be rude to the guests!"

Xue Baochai's face was still red, and when he was about to speak, Nian Gengyao said:

"Go back, this matter is not something you can solve with a sentence or two."

"How could it be? Brother Nian, please help me, help our Xue family to tide over this difficulty!"

"Even if I agree to help you make it happen, so what? Can you negotiate business in person or sell goods in person?

All of this needs your brother to do it. If you can't do it, what's the use of being an imperial merchant?Don't you think that if you join, you can just sit and wait for the cashier?

How can there be such a good thing? I heard that after joining, if the income generation fails to meet the tax quota within one year, there will be penalties. "

Nian Gengyao shook his head. If a family is maintained by the family of a girl who has not left the cabinet, then the family has already been defeated and cannot be saved.

Xue Baochai's crying suddenly became hoarse, she didn't know there was such a postscript request.

Want to meet tax targets?

Which ruthless person designed this condition to let people live?

And the ruthless person who designed this is waiting for her to come into the mansion to clean her up.

When the fourth master and Jinyao discussed at the beginning, they raised a lot of opinions. Jinyao gave her own understanding and solutions one by one, and the fourth master recorded them all. Organize the established rules.

Among them is a clause set in order to avoid the corpse of a vegetarian meal, that is, how much preferential policy will be given to register as a certain level of imperial merchants, and the condition is that the tax revenue of each quarter must be more than a certain amount. Downgrading, if the lowest rank fails to meet the standard, he will be fined silver and be disqualified as an imperial merchant.

The hard work that day was not in vain. The fourth master never used people for nothing. That night, he sent Jin Yao a whole set of gold filigree jewelry inlaid with gemstones. The whole set consisted of two rings, a necklace, a forehead ornament, and two There are two bracelets, two bracelets, a tiara, five long and short hairpins and a waist pendant.

The inlaid gemstone is blue fluorite.

The production of fluorite is not high, so it is rare to collect so many, especially the two large ones on the waistband and the crown, the largest one is a circle larger than a quail egg.

This set of jewelry is not only a visual shock, but the price must also be expensive. Jinyao checked the deposit, it was not made inside, and I don’t know where the symbol is. She is not familiar with the jewelry shops in the capital. the point.

But the workmanship is really exquisite, Jinyao likes it very much, and she doesn't worry about what gift to give in the future, she happily puts away the jewelry, planning to wear it again during the Chinese New Year.

Nian Gengyao was a little jealous when he saw how much she liked the jewelry given by Fourth Master:

"You said two days ago that you would keep the set of diamond jewelry I gave you for New Year's wear, but you will replace it with this one today?"

Jin Yao smiled happily and rolled her eyes:

"Chinese New Year is more than one day. I wear what you gave me on my [-]th day. Isn't it different every day on the first day of the new year? I'm so happy, there are so many beautiful jewelry, tsk tsk!"

In order to keep in shape, most of the ladies avoid food in a hurry, but for beautiful jewelry and clothes, the more the better.

No wonder it is often said that some people's daughter's dowry is enough for a lifetime. Let's just say her. A whole set of high-end jewelry costs less than ten thousand taels, which is not enough for an ordinary family of four to last for a lifetime.

Once again, I am grateful to her for doing more good deeds in her life and for giving such a good birth.

Speaking of good deeds, Jinyao suddenly remembered that this year she came to the capital and hadn't done any charity work yet, so she hurriedly asked Yinling to take out 2000 taels of silver notes, and asked Feiling to go out and find out which philanthropic hall had a good reputation, and donated it.

If you have extra money in your hands, you should donate appropriately. Charity can't be stopped, and you can't say that you can invest in good people in your next life. Jinyao firmly believes in this, and has never stopped donating since she was sensible.

Let's talk about Xue Baochai who returned home desolately.

As soon as she entered the inner door, she ran into her sister-in-law Xia Jingui, who only gave her a cold look from the corner of her eye:

"Hey, where is this going? The girl's family doesn't go home every day, and she is willing to spend a lot of money. I advise the girl to be gentle. Don't lose the dowry when you get married, and you can't get on the sedan chair crying." !"

Normally, Xue Baochai would have endured it and quarreled with her and lost his position, but today he just got hit, and thought that his brother was not up to date. If he could be like Nian Gengyao, wouldn't he be able to be as comfortable as Jinyao? Miss, why worry about this!

Who is working so hard now?It's fine if no one appreciates it, but the sister-in-law still sneers at her, and the anger can't be suppressed immediately.

"Sister-in-law has the mouth to talk about me here, why doesn't she know how to discipline her brother and help the family run the business?"

"Hey, you're even talking about teaching me. Why, girl, is she going to rebel? I married into your family to enjoy blessings, not to suffer!

The outside affairs are supported by a man, why am I so anxious, your brother is incompetent, he didn't take care of it since he was born, and I said that cheating me into this man's house will harm me for the rest of my life!

Why am I so miserable? I was spoiled and raised, but I was tricked into such a family, and when I met such a man, I was made things difficult by my mother-in-law all day long. What about the eyes..." That means crying when you say it.

The Xue family lived in a small house, and they were a junior, so when they passed by the door, they could hear the noise indistinctly. Aunt Xue naturally heard it in the house, and hurriedly helped the girl out.

"What's the fuss about? Can't you live a peaceful life? Does it have to be like this?"

"Yo, madam, who are you talking about? Who's having a happy birthday? Is there still a happy birthday in this family?

Everyday men only know to go out to drink, and come back to throw fire on their wives and girls, all the people around me who are slightly flat-headed and straight-faced are touched, and the girl's house is also disrespectful, which makes me ashamed to go out..."

"Girl! Girl, wake up!" Yinger yelled in fright.

Xue Baochai's face was flushed, and suddenly she fell backwards, scaring Aunt Xue and the girl beside her half to death.

"Baby girl! Don't scare Mom, if you have someone, who can I count on!"

Xia Jingui stopped with a guilty conscience, looked left and right to see that everyone was busy, she didn't step forward to help, and hurried back to her room.

This is also an old problem of Xue Baochai in the womb. If the anger is too heavy in winter, it is easy to commit it. Lying on the kang, unbuttoning the collar and smoothing the air, it will be relieved. If you eat the pill "Lengxiang pill", it will be fine. See Seeing Aunt Xue who was crying and pulling her, people couldn't help but burst into tears:

"mom!"

"My son, don't listen to that stupid man's nonsense, you're going to be mad at yourself."

Isn't Baochai bitter in her heart? Ever since her father passed away and her elder brother was not up to par, she has never stopped worrying, and now she is also tired.

But on the 29th, Jinyao was arranging the procedures for tomorrow and the rewards in various places below, and the servants replied that Mrs. Xing had sent Wang Shanbao's family here.

When Jinyao heard that Mrs. Xing had something to do, she hurriedly called someone from Wang Shanbao's family to answer.

The face of Wang Shanbao's family was full of joy, as soon as he came in, he gave a big gift:

"Cousin girl, my wife asked me to come to announce the good news to you..."
