The first update is to ask for pink.

Lian Man'er has become petrified, but Xiao Qi is very happy. What he likes the most now is that some people say he has grown taller or older. Shen Liu also added a sentence to protect Lian Man'er, which made Xiao Qi feel excited. Moreover, the person who said this is not someone else, but Shen Liu. The meaning and weight of these words are particularly extraordinary. Because it was Shen Liu's words, it will never be flattery, and it must be true.

Xiaoqi was having fun and turned his head and saw Lian Man'er in a daze. He hurriedly reached out and pulled Lian Man'er's sleeve.

"Sister..." Xiaoqi looked at Lian Man'er silly, with pride and happiness written on his face.

Lian Man'er came to her senses. She really wanted to go up and pull Shen Liu, pointing at Shen Liu's nose and questioning, "How can you eavesdrop on girls' words? And it's such a private conversation? What's your bottom line? What's the integrity?"

But in fact, she just stood there without moving because she didn't dare to ask or asked. She could guess what Shen Liu would answer, and Shen Liu would never be embarrassed or feel sorry. Because he didn't have the awareness of avoiding others, it was others who avoided him. Moreover, if she asked, what should Shen Liu do if he heard what she said? Then private words, if they were not infected by Shen Jin's emotions today, they thought that they would not be heard by others. Even in front of her brother, she had never said it before.

Shen Liu looked at Lian Man'er in a daze at first, but later he wanted to be angry but didn't dare to be angry. He tried hard to endure it, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

Today, he could have asked other brothers to send a decent manager to pick him up, but in the end, he decided to pick him up in person. Although there was also the reason why Shen Jin would enter the palace in the future, he did not want to deny that he had other selfish thoughts.

Shen Jin refused to set off for a long time. He did not send his servants to urge him, but came to see Shen Jin in person. He heard Shen Jin and Lian Man'er say such private topics that he did not expect. But he never thought of avoiding and interrupting the two of them. On the contrary, he deliberately stayed behind the rockery for a while until the two of them finished speaking and he did not appear.

Of course he would not miss the rare opportunity to listen to Lian Man'er's voice.

As for what he heard, Shen Liu's mood was a bit complicated. In Lian Man'er's age, whether it was the girls who were raised in the boudoir or the girls who served him, most of them knew about human affairs. Lian Man'er's incomprehension made Shen Liu a little happy and uncomfortable. As for Lian Man'er's ambition to go around and take a look, as well as his expectations for a future marriage, or no expectations, Shen Liu's mood was still complicated.

The vision and insight reflected in those words are beyond Lian Man'er's age.

From the first glance, Shen Liu knew that Lian Man'er was an unusual woman. Later contacts continued to deepen his understanding.

Lian Man'er is different from the women of all kinds of classes and personalities he has met. She is a unique existence.

Intelligent, firm, generous, neither humble nor arrogant... Almost all the beautiful qualities he admires can be seen in Lian Man'er. In addition, this little girl also has a time-based assessment and... Happy to know her fate.

Sometimes, if you judge the situation too much, you will know your fate. Shen Liu thought about Lian Man'er's view on future marriage. He would have been walking around in the past few years, and then he would have a very disliked the idea of ​​marrying into an ordinary family with his generous dowry and capable brothers. Shen Liu felt that in this regard, it would be great if Lian Man'er had some ambitions and some extraordinary expectations.

Thinking of this, Shen Liu's eyes looked at Lian Man'er and became a little deeper.

Lian Man'er thought Shen Liu could say that to Xiao Qi, in order to mock her. After the sarcasm, she did not resist, and Shen Liuzhi was proud and should leave. But beyond her expectations, Shen Liu did not seem to have any intention of leaving, but stood there with a provocative expression and a little ridiculous!

That's right, Shen Liu raised his eyebrows, smile, and his complicated gaze became provocation and ridicule in Lian Man'er's interpretation.

The lower limit, the integrity!

"Sixth Master, don't look at what is wrong, don't listen to what is wrong. I believe the Sixth Master knows what the saint said," Lian Man'er finally couldn't help it and spoke.

"Of course." Shen Liu was slightly stunned at first, then his eyes narrowed, "········ Did I molest something?"

Seeing Shen Liuyi's leisurely style, Shu Wu was guilty and guilty, Lian Man'er could only get angry.

"Master Six, it's getting late." Lian Man'er knew that he was depressed today, so she immediately changed the topic and reminded Shen Liudao. Shen Liu, both Shen Jin and Shen Qian, both sent him into the carriage early, as if time was too fast, but he was not in a hurry. This was simply outrageous.

"Yes." Shen Liu looked at Lian Man'er and nodded slightly, but laughed in his heart. He had never seen the person who saw him off and urged the guests to leave quickly. Lian Man'er was so angry that he was embarrassed?!

But it is indeed late.

"Protect your sister back." Shen Liu instructed Xiao Qi, then turned around and got on the horse surrounded by everyone.

Seeing the convoy gradually moving away, Lian Man'er secretly waved her fist.

"Sister, what's wrong with you?" Xiaoqi turned his head and just caught a glimpse of Lian Man'er's fists and slightly ferocious face that had not yet been put away.

Lian Man'er immediately stopped her hand and smiled again on her face. The person who annoyed her had gone far away, so she would not pass on the bad emotions to her family.

"It's nothing, let's go back quickly." Lian Man'er pulled Xiaoqi, "Just count the days, our little Hepu duck should be out of its shell."

“Yes.

"Xiao Qi's eyes lit up. Even though he was particularly willing to listen to others saying that he had grown up, he still had a passion for some things that belonged to children.

On the third day after Shen Liu, Shen Qian and Shen Jin left, Wulang and Mr. Lu returned from the capital city.

Goro got the best in the academy exam, and even Mr. Lu said that his articles had improved again, so the whole family was naturally very happy. After chatting for a while, Mr. Lu went back to his room to rest and left their family to talk.

Zhang, Lian Man'er and Lian Zhi'er packed up the things Goro brought back. Lian Shouxin and Xiaoqi were next to him and asked about Goro's situation in the prefecture. After a while, Goro took out a deed from his arms and handed it to Lian Man'er.

"………………………In Dasongshu Alley, not far from the academy, it is a good place to make peace in the midst of chaos." Goro told Lian Man'er.

They had long planned to buy property in Fucheng. When Goro went to Fucheng this time, Lian Man'er brought him enough silver. He agreed that if there was a suitable property or shop, he would buy it. Goro bought the three-entry house in Dasongshu Hutong.

"There are about a hundred rooms in the house, and there is a big garden behind it. There are also many documents to exchange for house deeds, and it costs a total of 1,500 taels." Wuro said, then took out another piece of paper and spread it for Lian Man'er to see.

It was a schematic sketch of a house, roughly drawing the layout of the whole house. Goro pointed and pointed at the paper and told the family the general location of the house in the city.

"Brother, isn't it cheap to buy such a house at this price?" Lian Man'er asked after hearing Goro's words, after estimating the entire house's area.

"This price is quite cost-effective." Goro nodded, "Thanks to Manager Zhong's help. He said he had already shown it to us. If he bought it on the market, he would have to add at least 500 taels of silver, and he might not be able to buy it."

"We have to thank Manager Zhong for this." Lian Shouxin sighed.

"Of course." Goro nodded, "I have already given a generous gift." Just by managing the business, Zhong naturally does not have such great skills and face. This is naturally the master of the Shen family who is in power. Even Man'er and Goro know very well what this favor is.

"Mr. Lu and I have moved in the city these days. I have bought some of the furniture that was originally coarse benzene. We can go there again in the future and we can live directly." Wuro said again, "Man'er, when you go there, we can see if there is anything else to buy, let's buy it."

"Sister, when will we go to the capital?" Xiaoqi asked Lian Man'er.

"Didn't you say it, wait until the autumn is over?" Lian Man'er smiled and said, "Study hard. If our brother and Mr. Lu say that your homework is not up to standard, I won't take you there."

"I must study hard, Mr. Chu praised me." Xiaoqi said hurriedly.

"I didn't bring back the remaining money. They were all in the Dacheng silver account. They were replaced with silver notes. In the future, I would have to spend money when I went to the Fucheng city. In large shops, you can use silver notes directly. For those smaller shops, you can just withdraw money from the silver account directly." Goro continued.

The Dacheng Silver No. is the largest and best-reputed silver No. 2 in the Ming Dynasty. It has semicolons in every city. It is said that the Dacheng Silver No. 2 also has shares of the royal prince, which means that behind it is the support of the royal family and the government.

"Silver notes!" Lian Man'er glanced at Xingxing.

Goro smiled and took out a stack of silver notes from his arms. Lian Man'er hurriedly took them over and took a closer look. The silver notes were printed on mulberry paper, with complex patterns on them, black and red. In addition to the Dacheng silver number, there were also serial numbers of the number of characters, the number of silver coins, the date of issuance of silver notes, etc., and there were also open and secret notes, which Goro taught Lian Man'er to recognize.

Silver notes are a manifestation of the development and progress of commercial circulation. However, because the business of the Ming Dynasty had not yet fully developed, although the use of silver notes provided convenience, there were still many restrictions.

The silver notes of Dacheng Silver cannot be regarded as paper money after all, but rather, they are just proof of deposits.

The first update will be given, and there will be a second update later, and we will try to fill in yesterday's update.
