Chapter 73: stocks
Before leaving, Jiang Xuening thought for a while, and said, "Father, there is one more thing. My daughter will be in the palace for the next six months, and she will only return to the mansion once in ten days. The time in the mansion is really not long. But I There are a lot of maids and women in the room. Although they need people to sweep them daily, they don't need so many. Why don't I save a few later. Tang'er and Lian'er are loyal to me. I don't know if I can please The woman in charge of the mansion took it with her, and learned to look at the account books, or is there any farm property in the countryside, which can teach them a lot of knowledge, so go and see more?"
Jiang Boyoushang was still immersed in the comfort and complexity of his second daughter finally becoming sensible, but he was a little confused when he heard her words at first: "It's nothing for the maid to cut half of it, your two big maids have to learn Look at the books and operate the industry, why is that?"
Jiang Xuening felt that the timing couldn't be better.
She deliberated and said: "Since the father already understands what happened in the palace, he should know what kind of danger my daughter was in at that time, and what kind of luck it was to avoid this disaster. My daughter was raised by her aunt in the countryside since she was a child." Da, when I first entered the capital, I did feel that everything in the capital is prosperous, which is different from the looseness in the fields. But after experiencing these things now, I feel that although the capital is prosperous, it may not really be as comfortable as the countryside. My daughter is naive and asks her father to laugh, It is because I want to leave the capital after the accompanying study is over, and go back to the village to live in the countryside for a while."
Jiang Boyou was stunned.
He only felt that Ning girl's words were shocking to the world, which made him extremely unexpected, but after careful consideration of the reasons she said, he felt that if a person had such an experience, it was indeed possible to have the same thoughts as hers.
The guilt at this moment is even more unbearable.
He opened his mouth, and after a while he said: "The little girl is from every family, she is not even married yet, why go out? Although you and Yan Lin have no destiny, but in the future, you may meet someone who is not married to Yan Lin. Generally, people who treat you even better. Even if you want to leave the capital, it is best to find a good person to entrust you with. Don't worry, Daddy also knows that you are suffering. It's just your mother, her, oh..."
Deliberately want to defend Mengshi a few words.
But when the words came to his lips, facing Jiang Xuening's beautiful black and white eyes, there was no sound, only a sigh at the end.
Jiang Boyou patted her on the shoulder and said, "You're tired too. I'm afraid you won't be able to sleep well in the palace, right? Go back to your room and have a good rest. As for the girls Tang'er and Lian'er, since you want to , I will explain to the housekeeper later, and do as you said."
Jiang Xuening's choice of this opportunity to speak out was just to prepare the ground, lest he suddenly propose to leave the capital half a year later, and his family would find it unacceptable, so Jiang Boyou did not directly agree, which is also expected.
She neither fights nor argues.
Instead, he nodded obediently, bowed and said goodbye, and went out from the study.
After chatting with Uncle Jiang for quite a while, Tang'er and Lian'er had already come back from inquiring about the news, guarding under the verandah, and when she saw her coming out, followed her, lowering her voice and whispering: "It's incredible! The mother-in-law of Qingyuan uncle's mansion The master said that since Miss Fangyin offended Miss Youyue last time, she was locked up and was released after six or seven days. But this has not stopped for a few days, and Miss Youyue came back from the palace again. How to torment her!"
You Yue didn't have time to torment You Fangyin now, sitting in her own room, her eyes lit up after hearing what the boy and the woman came back up to: "Is what you said true?"
The mother-in-law was still a little confused, not knowing why she cared so much.
But the young lady cared about it, which proved the importance of this matter, so she said with more certainty: "It's all true, then Ren Weizhi lives in the Shuxiang Inn in the capital, and tells others all day long that he has developed a new gadget that can fight What a deeper well. But everyone saw that he was a shabby householder, and he asked for a lot of money, so no one dared to invest in any shares. When we went to inquire at the order of the lady, the shopkeeper of the inn was urging him to pay the rent, saying If you don't give it up, you will kick him out. How come there are such charlatans these days?"
It seems that Ren Weizhi's life is not easy now.
But if that Zhuo Tsutsui is real...
You Yue stood up and walked back and forth, looked outside, saw that it was still early in the morning, and said: "I can only stay at home for a few days when I go out of the palace, where will I find this kind of opportunity after I miss it? Don't talk nonsense Immediately send someone to prepare a carriage for me, I want to go out."
The mother-in-law was startled: "Where are you going?"
You Yue gave her a disgusted look, apparently feeling that she was not smart enough and talkative, so she said angrily, "Of course I'm going to the Shuxiang Inn!"
After speaking, he thought of You Fangyin again, and asked, "Is that little hoof still honest?"
The mother-in-law said: "I only give you one meal a day, but be honest."
You Yue rolled her eyes and pondered: "My lady, with golden branches and jade leaves, can she show her face like those lowly bastards? That little hoof knew the news because she had sneaked into the market. You go, take that lowly **** with you." Now, change her into cleaner clothes and tell her to go out with me."
The mother-in-law was very surprised.
She really couldn't figure out what her daughter was going to do, and she wanted to ask a few more questions, but she was afraid of being punished by her, so she had to go to the woodshed to pick someone up suspiciously.
After the winter, the weather turned cold, and the firewood room was cold and windy, and only a quilt was given.
You Fangyin hugged her knees and huddled in the corner of the wall.
Her hair was in a mess, her clothes were dirty, and because she was always hungry and cold, she couldn't fall asleep at night. Both eyes were covered with bloodshot eyes, and the underside of the eyelids was black and blue. The whole person looked better than ten days old. I don't know how much I have been haggard before.
When the mother-in-law came in from the outside, she raised her head to see that everyone was a double image.
She didn't react until she heard the sound.
When he spoke, his throat was dry and his voice was hoarse: "Second sister wants to let me out?"
The mother-in-law didn't dare to do anything to You Yue, but she raised her nose and snorted lightly at her. She didn't even answer her words, but asked the rough girl next to her to put a bucket of cold water on the ground, and then threw down her whole body. The servant wore a sarong and said: "Clean yourself up quickly, and go out with the second girl in a while."
After speaking, he hummed and left.
You Fangyin froze in the corner for a while before realizing it. She stood up at once, but felt the blood in her head swell, and the sky was spinning, and she almost fell down. Fortunately, she quickly supported the firewood pile next to her, and then slowly recovered.
The second elder sister never waited to see me, but now she wants her to change into clean clothes and go out with her...
Is it for the Ziliujing saltworks?
In You Fangyin's mind, Jiang Xuening's demeanor when she told this story to her finally gradually appeared again, and she also remembered that she didn't want to mention her lowered eyebrows when she was bullied in the palace, and felt that the ten days of torture suddenly paid off , the dark sky that weighed her down seemed to be a little brighter.
She gritted her teeth, resisting the cold that made her shudder, took off her dirty clothes in the woodshed, and wiped her body full of old and new scars with the cold, temperatureless water in the wooden barrel.
Then put on the simple sarong.
After tying up her hair again, she came out of the firewood room with her face turned upside down.
You Yue had already waited impatiently in the carriage outside the side door, and seeing You Fangyin walking up to her mother-in-law like a tuberculosis, she taunted her: "Look at this poor little girl, it's like You're like a poor mother. Why, don't you have the energy to talk back now?"
You Fang saluted: "I have met my second sister."
You Yue rolled her eyes, put down the curtain of the car, and said, "Just sit on the shaft outside, don't come in and dirty my car."
You Fangyin still didn't understand: "Where is Second Sister going, and why are you taking me?"
You Yue only said: "I'll give you a chance to pay off your merits. Now I'm going to the Shuxiang Inn, and I'll meet Ren Zhizhi. If you can help me finish this errand, I will give you a chance next time." When you enter the palace, you will not be fined in the firewood room, but you will be released to burn some incense for your dead mother!"
You Fangyin's heart suddenly trembled.
You Yue has already warned her with a sneer: "But you must not play any tricks, otherwise there are plenty of ways to cure you!"
You Fangyin has already realized that a great opportunity has come, she grew up surrounded by others' scorn and beatings, she has no feeling for You Yue's vicious words, and her endurance is astonishing.
She answered dumbly: "Yes."
Then he climbed up to the shaft of the carriage obediently, holding on tightly with some fear, and as the coachman looked at her sympathetically and threw off the whip, the carriage drove out of Qingyuan uncle's mansion and headed for Shuxiang Inn.
When Jiang Xuening heard Tang'er and Lian'er's responses, she felt her head was as big as a fight.
You Fangyin is obedient, pitiful, and willing to work hard, but how difficult is it to fight in this backyard? He doesn't even have the freedom to leave the house, and he is still detained by You Yue all day long, without the slightest ability to resist, which is really worrying.
She sighed as she ate her lunch.
Tang'er kept comforting her: "Miss You is a rare blessing to be rescued by you. All women in the world are listening to their parents at home, and she can't get rid of this situation for a while. You eat Just eat, but don't sigh, the servants are all worried."
Lian'er also had a bitter face: "Yeah, I can't think of a way."
Putting down the chopsticks, Jiang Xuening simply stopped eating and said, "Who says there's no way? It depends if you dare to do it or not."
Not long after You Fangyin earned the "first pot of gold" in her previous life, she found an opportunity that no one in the mansion noticed, escaped from You Mansion, and bought it from someone she knew in the three teachings and nine streams. After getting Lu Yin, he took advantage of the relationship on the commercial road to go all the way out of Beijing, and simply left his hometown to go to the south of the Yangtze River to expand his own territory.
As for the Qingyuan uncle's mansion?
It was nothing more than losing an insignificant concubine, and after reporting to the official, she just regarded it as being photographed by a slapstick, and ignored it. It wasn't until a few years later that You Fangyin's Fu Jia returned to the capital with a changed face, and the people in Qingyuan's uncle's mansion recognized her. Bofu, so there is no trouble.
It's just that You Fangyin in this life is somewhat cowardly, and in the previous life, You Fangyin may not have the courage to simply leave Bo's house and go to the world alone. How dare you expect You Fangyin in this life to do the same? ?
So Jiang Xuening was really worried.
She thought about it and didn't think of a good way to get You Fangyin out of trouble, so she put it aside temporarily and said instead: "If there is news from Fangyin, please continue to listen, prepare the carriage first, and let's go to the Shuxiang Inn."
Jiang Xuening had never seen the legendary Ren Weizhi.
Although I am not ready to make a move now, but if I can meet someone first, I will have some confidence in my heart.
It's just that she didn't expect that the moment the carriage left the mansion, and there were still two streets away from the Shuxiang Inn in the west of the city, Lian Er, who was quietly looking out in the carriage, widened her eyes, pulled her in surprise, and looked at her. The outside of the car pointed: "Girl, girl! Look, is it because the servant's eyes are dazzled? Isn't that Miss Fangyin?"
Jiang Xuening didn't believe it: "What?"
She hurried forward and looked in the direction of Lian'er's finger: not far ahead obliquely, a carriage was turning around, and besides a coachman was sitting on the shaft, there was also a handsome man Girl, although she looks much thinner and haggard, who is that You Fangyin who she wanted to see just now?
Jiang Xuening was stunned: "Is that Youfu's carriage?"
Lian Er nodded again and again: "Yes, You Fu's carriage, this is too strange!"
I don't know whether it's strange that You Fangyin can come out, or that it's strange that she is sitting on the shaft.
Or both.
Jiang Xuening stared in that direction for a long time, but suddenly laughed, and said: "Tell the coachman to follow from a distance, and don't get too close. I think their direction is the same as ours. Why don't you slow down and look at them?" what to do."
Tang'er hesitated: "But aren't you going to find Ren Weizhi to invest in something?"
If someone preempts...
Jiang Xuening looked at You Fangyin for a long time, and confirmed that although she looked haggard but not in serious condition, she slowly lowered the curtain of the car and said, "It's not urgent."
Tang'er was extremely surprised: "Why are you in no hurry?"
Jiang Xuening couldn't explain the key points, but suddenly remembered a word that impressed her deeply in her previous life, so she laughed and said, "Have you heard of 'stock trading'?"
Whoever gets in first doesn't win.
