In April, when it rained lightly, Anjing, the capital of the Western Qin Dynasty, was misty and rainy, and the pear blossoms were in bud, waiting to bloom after the rain.

The Dali Temple is in charge of the criminal and prison cases of the Dynasty. It is solemn and majestic. There is no flower in the surrounding area, and few people pass by here. run away.

It is said that the Dali Temple in the Great Qin Dynasty is eerie and terrifying. In addition to the cruel and ruthless officials, there are also vicious prisoners. How can such a place bloom?

When Dali Temple Chancellor Dong Xiyu found Ye Tinglan, he was sighing as above to an unknown wild flower on the ground.

The weak yellow flower lay dying on the stone floor, Ye Tinglan sighed and shook his head, and added: "You really shouldn't be here!"

Dong Xiyu didn't hear his words clearly, but felt that Mrs. Ye, who was wearing a crimson official uniform, was very glaring and out of harmony in this chilly courtyard.

"My lord." Dong Xiyu said respectfully.

Ye Tinglan didn't hold an umbrella, and the soft rain covered him with a lingering curtain. He glanced at Dong Xiyu lightly and asked, "Is everything ready?"

Dong Xiyu lowered his head and said, "Yes, all of them have been recruited, exactly as your lord expected."

Ye Tinglan sighed softly: "Go."

Dong Xiyu took the lead, he had followed Ye Tinglan for many years, so he naturally knew what Ye Tinglan wanted him to do, but...

Ye Tinglan stretched out his hand, his white fingers were wet by the rain, they were as shiny as jade, they were really pretty, he shook his head and shook his hands, as if they were stained with some red, sticky, smelly liquid.

He didn't like the smell very much, so he walked home in the rain.

As Bai Li expected, the Ye Mansion is magnificent and spacious. As soon as Ye Tinglan arrived at the door, the butler hurried out with an umbrella and respectfully shielded him from the rain. The door opened and closed, and outsiders could not see the well-designed landscaping inside. The scenery is different at every step, all kinds of flowers and trees, rare and ordinary ones can be found in this yard. The position and shape of each plant have been carefully designed and tailored. The courtyard is deep and the spring is endless.

A servant had long been waiting in the study, familiarly changing him from the damp official uniform to clean and soft white plain clothes. The housekeeper took the handkerchief, wiped his hair carefully, and said softly, "My lord, why don't you?" Open an umbrella, although the rain is light, the chill is piercing to the bones, it will be a good thing if you get soaked."

Ye Tinglan took a sip of ginger jujube tea and said, "It's so delicate."

He took another sip and asked, "Is anyone here?"

The butler smiled and said, "How did you find out, sir? Did you leave footprints in front of the door?"

Ye Tinglan smiled, but did not answer.The housekeeper also knew that he would not answer, so he said: "The boat from the east has docked, and I brought you some seafood that you like, and they are all very good. Chengzhou has received your care and sent some small gifts."

Ye Tinglan's eyes moved slightly, and he asked, "You took it?"

The housekeeper smiled and said, "I'll accept it. It's really a beautiful item. I've inquired about it. They recently shipped such a batch of goods, which are also sold in the capital. They were all sold out in a day's work. I feel regretful that I didn't get them." , I thought you would like it, but I didn't expect this person to send it."

"Is it soap?" Ye Tinglan asked.

"Yes, but not the ones we use." The housekeeper took out a large box of soap and said, "Look at it."

When Ye Tinglan opened the box, he couldn't help being a little stunned. It was full of soaps of different shapes and colors. He picked one up and smelled the light tea fragrance.

The housekeeper said: "The man said that this is cold-cut soap. It is good for washing your face and bathing. It is much milder and more moisturizing than cleansing soap."

Ye Tinglan looked at the small piece of soap several times, and asked: "Liu Bai's life, it's that child's soap, is this little leaf on all the soaps, or is it only on our family's soap?"

The butler replied: "Yes, I have seen this mark on the boxes bought by other people's houses."

Ye Tinglan: "Understood, you can go."

The housekeeper bowed slightly and was about to leave when Ye Tinglan stopped him again and took out a piece of translucent honey soap: "Use this for bathing at night."

"Yes."

Ye Tinglan was the only one left in the huge study room. He glanced at the large box of beautiful soap, closed the lid silently, thought for a moment, then took out a piece of paper from the book on the case table, and read softly the words on it. A few lines:

"My house washes the inkstone pond head tree,

Blossoming flowers with faint ink marks.

Don't let people praise the color is good,

Only the clear air is left to fill the universe. "

After a while, he laughed softly: "Is this really about me?"

Bai Li wrapped the tofu in egg wash and fried it until golden on both sides. This was their last dish of the day.When it was brought to the table, there was already a plate of braised pork, a plate of spicy chicken, two stir-fried vegetables, and a fresh fish soup.

Bai Qing smiled and said, "What are you doing with so many dishes? How can you finish them all?"

Bai Li put down the tofu and said, "My sister celebrates her birthday once a year, so she must eat something good."

Xiao Liu'er also came back, he scooped up fish soup for his elder brother and sister, and moved the braised pork to Bai Qing's side.

Bai Qing looked at his movements and said: "Our family is living well now, but we can't waste it extravagantly. The crop harvest in the past two years has not been good, and how many people can't eat enough."

Bai Li smiled: "When did we waste it? Our family is full of CDs, and there is not a single grain of rice left."

"There's no Tiantian Yurou either."

"If someone sells something, someone will buy it. Whoever buys it is different."

Bai Qing smiled and said, "Just your skin."

It has been almost two months since the Bai family moved into the big house, and Bai Qing has also escaped from the predicament of not even stepping on the clean path at the beginning, and has gradually adapted to life in this deep house. Li fired one of them because the woman bullied Bai Qing for her good temper, she wanted to do everything according to her own will, and even asked Bai Qing to accommodate her.

Bai Qing is embarrassed to say that Bai Li directly put a black cross on the body deed to drive him out. Although he is young, he also knows that if he wants to grow into a big family, he must be strict in running the family. In a few days, I repaired several servants in the family, so they are very well-behaved and cautious at the moment, and no one dares to look down on this 16-year-old owner.

A black cross on the body deed means that the servant is incompetent and hated by the master, and it will be very difficult to find someone else to work in the future. Few people will be so decisive.

With this trick, Bai Li established a reputation at home, and all the servants knew that this sunny boy who was always smiling was actually not easy to mess with.

Xiao Liu'er learned well from Zhu Peizhi, and would come back every half a month. Gen Baili would talk about what he had learned. Zhu Peizhi treated Xiao Liu'er well, and he was very serious about teaching and reading. Xiao Liu'er learned well. There are few things, but this person is a bit rigid and not easy to serve, but Xiao Liuer likes to learn from him, and can tolerate some small grievances, and the two get along quite well.

Zhu Peizhi also named Xiao Liu'er, Pei Chen, saying that it matched Bai Li's Li and Bai Qing's Qing, and Bai Li didn't want Xiao Liu'er to be a foil, so Zhu Peizhi changed his name again. It's called Pei Xuan, and Xiao Liu'er likes it very much.

The whole family tasted a few dishes made by Bai Li at the table, chatted about Xiao Liu'er's studies, and said a few things about the shop. Tell Bai Li that Cheng Jiu's boat has arrived.

Bai Li was happy in his heart, but he said: "That bastard must be here to eat, ignore him!"

Then she pretended to continue eating and drinking, only to see that Bai Qing was anxious and shy, almost unable to sit still, so she burst out laughing, tidied her clothes, and took Bai Shun to the pier.

Bai Qing stomped her feet, went to the kitchen in embarrassment and added two dishes, both of which were meat dishes.

Cheng Jiu's boat is called Changfeng, and it's not a small cargo ship. It runs in the river and sea every year, and can earn a lot of money.

Bai Li waited for a short time before seeing Cheng Jiu jumping off the boat with big strides, followed by two people carrying a big box, Fourth Uncle Cheng followed behind him, trying to keep him calm.

Bai Li waved and yelled, Cheng Jiu spotted him immediately, laughed and ran over, and patted Bai Li on the back firmly, almost vomiting blood.

This guy is darker, stronger, and stronger.

Bai Li greeted Fourth Uncle Cheng, and then dismissed Cheng Jiudao: "I haven't seen you for a few months, it looks like a beast."

Cheng Jiu laughed loudly: "I haven't seen you for a few months, look at your clothes, you look really good, have you made a fortune?"

Bai Li snorted and laughed: "I'll show you my mansion later, don't be scared and kneel down!"

The two reunited after a long absence, and they were very happy. Cheng Jiu brought a lot of things to Bai Li, all in big boxes, and Bai Li hired two porters at the pier to carry them home.

When they first arrived at Bai's house, Cheng Jiu and Fourth Uncle Cheng were deeply shocked. They looked at the noble courtyard and couldn't believe it was Bai Li's house for a long time.

Complacent, Bai Li said, "Ninth Brother, how much did you earn in the past six months?"

Cheng Jiu almost knocked him on the door.

With a foreigner in the family, Bai Qing is not easy to meet people, even if that person is acquainted with her.The table was cleaned up again, and there were several plates full of meat and vegetables on it. Bai Li felt a toothache when he saw it. Seeing his appearance, Cheng Jiu knew that this person's nature was hard to change, so he ate more happily.

Good wine and good meat can be regarded as a clean-up for Cheng Jiu and Fourth Uncle Cheng. After two glasses of wine, Fourth Uncle Cheng said with emotion: "At the beginning of the year, you said that you would move to Fucheng. I thought it was unrealistic. Now it seems that you really have ability."

Bai Li: "It's just looking at the scenery, these few months haven't exhausted me to death."

Cheng Jiu: "I'm very comfortable on the boat."

Bai Li: "You earn less, too."

Cheng Jiu: "..."

Uncle Cheng looked at them with a never-ending smile on his face.

After talking for a while, Bai Li returned to the topic and said, "Tell me about what you have seen, how is the soap sold everywhere?"

Cheng Jiu thought for a while and said, "The sale is very good. We encountered several cargo ships carrying soap along the way, which didn't drive our boss crazy. We couldn't wait to do this business."

Bai Li nodded: "As expected, how did my soap sell?"

Cheng Jiu patted his thigh: "The sale is crazy, let me tell you, as you expected, when we went to the capital, it was the time when laundry soap and cleansing soap were selling the most in the capital. It's out of stock, and when we showed your soap, those people's eyes would fall out. If I didn't remember you said that each store is limited to two yuan, they would have been rounded up as early as the first one. "

Bai Li smiled lightly: "That's good, can you send it to Ye Fu?"

"Send it."

"Have you seen Master Ye?"

"No, his housekeeper picked it up."

Bai Li felt a little lost, he let out a cry, and stretched out his hand towards Cheng Jiu.

Cheng Jiu: "Why?"

"What about the money?"

"..."
