Luo Jinyan looked at Chang Gui's compassionate appearance, didn't bother to speak, and wrote quickly in Xia Zhi's palm.
Chang Gui was confused, the eldest lady did want Xia Zhi to speak for her when she was a child, but this time she came back from outside, and every sentence was said in person, what happened today Luo Jinyan had finished writing, and Xia Zhi said to Chang Gui: "Miss said, since it is so pitiful, then in addition to a hanging of money, give two catties of white rice."
But the Luo family is not a good church, if this matter is spread, it is necessary to provoke all the beggars on the street, Miss, this hanging money and two catties of rice will be given out in your name, and then it will be deducted from the regular money. ” Chang Gui was stunned, a hanging of money and two catties of rice was just a small amount of money to him, which was nothing, of course he would not feel distressed.
But what does this mean, Miss He opened his mouth for a while before asking, "What does the eldest lady mean, we won't keep this maid."
Xia Zhi smiled and said: "Steward Chang, since she even rewarded white rice, is it impossible to let her open a small stove in our house?"
Yes, there are two kitchens in the house, one for the master and one for the subordinate, but even if it is the kitchen used by the subordinate, there is no rule for the girl to take rice to cook by herself.
He was about to speak again, but Luo Jinyan had already stood up and walked away from Xia Zhixu.
Luo Jinyan returned to the house and said to Xia Zhi: "You go and talk to Mo Jiakang in person, and let Lu Zhenping come to see me tomorrow." ” Xia Zhi went out in response, and came back with a smile after a while: "Miss, the second cousin is here, and this time he is in the front yard, and a bunch of people are surrounding him to say goodbye." ” Luo Jinyan was surprised and delighted, she thought that Li Qingfeng would not be able to arrive in the capital until the end of February and the beginning of March, but she didn't expect that he would come before the second day of February.
"Let's see if Uncle Huo is busy, my father is not there, ask him and Master Jiao to entertain the second cousin."
Luo Jinyan said with a smile.
She is thirteen years old this year, and she can no longer receive Li Qingfeng in her house like she did when she was a child.
In this way, Luo Jinyan also left behind the matter of being expensive.
Things have been unhappy these days, but now that the second cousin is here, I finally have a happy thing.
She personally wrote the recipe and asked Xiaoxue to tell her to go down, and then she went to see Li Qingfeng.
Huo Xing and Li Qingfeng sat on the black lacquer Taishi chair, Jiao Wei sat at the bottom, and the three of them were greeting.
Luo Jinyan walked in with a smile, and Li Qingfeng was stunned.
Since Yangzhou said goodbye, it has been almost two years, and the girl in front of him is brighter than snow, Mingren, and even the slightly thin figure in his memory has been exquisite.
It's a pity that it's half a head higher than the time in Yangzhou.
"It's a pity to grow so tall," Li Qingfeng said with a smile.
Luo Jinyan respectfully greeted Li Qingfeng, the maid moved the chair, and after she sat down, she asked, "The second brother didn't celebrate the New Year in Yangzhou."
Li Qingfeng said with a smile: "It's still so smart, I really can't hide anything from you, the business in Fujian has gone out, because some accounts have not been clarified, so I have delayed the day of returning to Yangzhou."
I received a letter from my father, saying that my brother-in-law had returned to the capital, and asked me to come over and have a look, so I came directly to the capital from Fujian. ” Luo Jinyan's heart moved when he heard this, his second cousin took out the business in Fujian, he should have heard the rumors Looking for an opportunity, Luo Jinyan called Li Qingfeng aside and quietly asked him: "Second brother, what's going on in Fujian?"
Li Qingfeng looked left and right, and saw that the maids were far away, so he lowered his voice and said: "I am in a hurry to come over, it is not that I missed the time to return to Yangzhou, I came from Fujian on a special trip, and I left in Layueli."
Last year, Zhang Sitai, the commander of the Fujian capital, was greedy for ink, and in November, the imperial court sent Li Zhengyi to take over, but Li Zhengyi had just arrived in Fujian, and before he could officially take over the seal at Yamen, he fell off his horse and died on the spot.
At present, the command of the Fujian capital is temporarily managed by Zhang Xian, the same knowledge.
I have a steward, and one of the ambassadors of Zhangzhou Wei is my cousin, and according to him, since last year, Zhangzhou Wei and several other guards have frequently adjusted their defenses.
I remembered the last time you asked me to make tea, and I felt unsure, so I simply took out the shop used to collect tea. ” Luo Jinyan had already thought of these things, Zhao Li was going to raise troops in April, and it would be strange if he didn't let people change their guards in advance.
Zhang Sitai is said to be insatiable, I think it is not that he is unwilling to follow Zhao Li, but that he is too greedy, Zhao Li does not want to use him, and he is afraid of being held hostage by him, so he is blasted out of Fujian, she still remembers the fate of this person, he committed suicide on the way back to Beijing in the name of fear.
As for the Li Zhengyi who fell to his death, he was just an unlucky guy at best.
Even Li Qingfeng and his businessmen can feel the danger, but Zhao Ji still has to drive in person in mid-February, is he too confident, or does he really treat Zhao Li as a waste Luo Jinyan asked Li Qingfeng with a smile: "Then won't you lose?"
Li Qingfeng laughed and said: "If outsiders want to collect tea in Fujian, they must be brought forward by local tooth people. ” Luo Jinyan knew in his heart that Li Qingfeng had traveled back and forth between Fujian and the capital all the year round, and of course he would not be as simple as he said in Fujian, but he could let go of the affairs over there, and he couldn't do it without courage.
Luo Jinyan asked about Yangzhou again, knowing that her uncle had always felt guilty because of what happened last time, she couldn't help sighing.
She didn't want to continue asking, but Li Qingfeng thought that she was still unhappy, so she said: "My father beat Qingyue up, and asked the eldest brother to send him to Jinling Academy to study, and didn't let him go to the Liao clan to study."
My mother was reluctant at first, but then she was worried that he would have anything to do with Miss Liao San, so she didn't care about it. ” From coming back to the present, Luo Jinyan didn't know the situation of the Liao family, and when she heard Li Qingfeng mention Liao Xue, she asked, "Has Miss Liao San returned to Yangzhou?"
Li Qingfeng said: "After Liao Chuan, the eldest master of the Liao family, dispersed last year, not only did he not have six departments, but he didn't even stay in the capital, and he was sent to Chenzhou to be a fellow acquaintance.
Miss Liao San's biological mother was frail and sickly, and Liao Chuan carried a maid as an aunt and took her to her office, leaving Liao Xue's mother and daughter in the capital to watch the house. ” Luo Jinyan didn't expect Liao Xue to still be in the capital, no wonder the Li family didn't let Li Qingyue go back to Shude Academy, it turned out that it was not only because of himself, but also because of Liao Xue.
At this time, Luo Shao came back from the ya, and saw that Li Qingfeng was a good friend again, the family had not been so lively for a long time, Luo Jinyan was very happy, she didn't bother to think about the people and things that had upset her for many days.
One-one-one-one I'm so sorry, there was something going on at home today, and the update was late, so I kept everyone waiting. t1706231537:
