Chapter 116 The Past (Part 2)

Chapter 116: Pink Ticket from the Past 1o8o

Hu Bo smiled and said: Later, my aunt sent Qiu Luo to Banyue Pan to serve the Marquis, and she bowed her head. The two gradually reconciled. When she said this, there was some hesitation between her eyebrows.

I asked you to ask a question, but I didn't ask you to tell half of it and leave half of it. Eleven Niang frowned as she looked at it.

Amber hurriedly explained: I just heard it from the mother-in-law. I don’t know whether it’s true or not. I also think it’s a bit strange, so I don’t know whether to talk about it or not. As he said that, he lowered his voice and said to the mother-in-law, that Qiuluo

She looks very similar to the dead Aunt Tong. He also said that there was a rumor in the house at that time that the eldest aunt had killed Aunt Tong, and now she had to pay for a Qiu Luo who looked similar to Aunt Tong. Only then did the Marquis

Calm down.

Xu Lingyi will be angry because of an aunt and his wife

Eleven Niang couldn't help laughing when she thought of his indifferent expression: Do you believe this?

Amber Qiqi Ai Ai said: Of course I don’t believe it.

If you don't believe it, why bother taking Ai Ai every now and then.

Even someone as transparent as Amber felt that Mr. Hou valued Tong family very much, let alone others.

Eleven Niang smiled slightly and changed the subject: After Aunt Tong died, what did Mrs. Tong say?

The Mrs. Tai didn’t say anything. Hu Hu said, but the Second Madam asked Aunt Qin to serve in the Mrs. Tai’s room. I heard from Mrs. Xiang that before the Second Young Master was born, Aunt Qin and the Second Madam ate, slept, and went in and out together.

The aunt even approached the second lady about this matter, but I don’t know what the second lady said, so Aunt Qin raised her baby in the Taifu’s house.

No wonder people in the mansion spread the rumor that Yuanniang killed Tong.

Eleven Niang muttered: Do you know how Qiu Luo died?

I had a hemorrhage when I was giving birth.

How did the child die?

Amber's voice lowered: She said it was inappropriate for the child to be born. My aunt invited three of the imperial doctors from the imperial hospital who were best at caring for young children to stay at home for treatment, but they still couldn't save her.

Aren’t the Madam and the Marquis very sad?

In the Zhou Dynasty, there was a practice of delegating the title to the Duke without a son. If the child was adopted, a special order from the emperor was required, so the heir to the duke's family was not just a descendant.

I heard that the Marquis didn't sleep all night at that time. Hu Hu said that not only the Marquis was sad, but the aunt was also sad. The aunt was originally planning to raise the child Qiu Luo under her name. Because of this incident, the two lived together again.

Eleven Niang was slightly distracted as she listened.

Does suffering make it easier for people to become tolerant?

Seeing that Eleven Niang was in a low mood, Hu Hu said with a smile: Madam, I also asked about one thing, you will be happy to hear it.

Oh, Eleven Niang no longer thinks about those depressing old memories, she smiles and asks about any good things.

Amber smiled and said, "I told my mother-in-law that when the family was divided, each house had already taken away its share. The fifth master was young, so his share was taken care of by the wife. Later, the family

When it came to money, the second lady and the fifth master both took their share. So when the fifth master got married, the marquis not only gave him what he had deserved before, but also bought him seventy or eighty thousand taels of silver.

A few years ago, the eldest aunt and the Marquis fought over the property under the name of the second wife. The second lady asked her concubine to take over the property that the Marquis was in charge of. The Marquis was still like the old Marquis.

When he was still alive, he was still in charge of the daily needs of the family. Therefore, the money in the palace is actually the money of our master, and the affairs department has to take care of our gifts. We only need to write a post, and the Zhao family in the affairs department will

The steward will arrange the corresponding gifts according to the usual practice. We only need to decide whether to go or not depending on the depth of the relationship. Madam, can you tell me whether this is good news?

This coincides with what Mother Tao said.

Eleven Niang said thoughtfully: But last time my father returned to Yuhang, the gifts given to the fourth brother by each room, including the gifts from the Marquis, were all handed over to me. I thought that the favors of each room were sent to me at that time.

I was still thinking why things at home were so messy and there were no rules. Unexpectedly, it was me who misunderstood.

Amber covered her mouth and smiled: Thanks to Mrs. Xiang for helping us tidy up the house.

Eleven Niang also laughed.

With the fifty taels of silver from the fifth aunt's grandma, we can write a post and go to the troubleshooting office.

The fifty taels of silver I gave to Fifth Aunt privately, it is not a public matter. You cannot write a post to discuss it. Eleven Niang shook her head, and there are old rules to follow in these favors. Some of them have to be followed.

, some people don’t follow suit. You have to go and inquire. If Fifth Sister opens a shop and the Xu Mansion can go to Sui Fen Li, people from the Wucheng Military and Horse Division or the Shuntian Prefecture Yin will look at her with high regard.

Amber smiled and said: I'll go find out more about it right away. He also said, although the Fifth Aunt's grandma still has to go out, the Seventh Miss should be expected to follow the etiquette.

That’s just a gift for Third Uncle. We have to take out the additional boxes for Seventh Sister ourselves. Eleven Niang said with a smile, we’ll just pick out a few more expensive accessories then.

While the two were talking, a little maid trotted over: Madam, the Marquis is back.

Eleven Niang got up and went to greet him.

Xu Lingyi had already lifted the curtain and entered.

Xia Yi helped change clothes, and Eleven Niang went to make tea herself.

Xu Lingyi sat on the kang, took a sip, and said: Zichun is going to open a dried fruit shop on West Street, did you know?

The fifth sister mentioned it to me when I came back last time. Seeing that his tone was very calm, the eleventh mother smiled and said, she invited me to become a shareholder, but I asked my sister-in-law to politely refuse. Nothing happened after that. Unexpectedly, the fifth sister

Sister, they moved so quickly, they have already started to contact the shop. I asked him again, how did the Marquis know about it?

Xu Lingyi said: Why did you politely refuse?

Eleven Niang said with a smile: When doing business together, it is inevitable that there will be disagreements. We are all relatives, so why should we create gaps over such things? So we politely declined.

Xu Lingyi chin slightly and said: Zichun wanted to rent King Shun's shop. King Shun specifically told me about it now, and I found out about it now.

I think it should be like this.

Although Qian Ming is utilitarian in his work, he also has his own attitude and will not ask Xu Lingyi casually. In other words, there is no need to ask Xu Lingyi personally for this kind of thing. As long as he and Xu Lingyi are brothers-in-law, others will naturally treat him with courtesy.

King Shun talked to Qian Ming all because of Xu Lingyi's face, so he definitely wanted to tell Xu Lingyi.

Since King Shun told you, he must have agreed to rent the shop to the fifth brother-in-law. Eleven Niang said with a smile, she has to send someone to find out. When the fifth brother-in-law's dried fruit shop opens, it is necessary to congratulate it.

You are so smart. Xu Lingyi smiled and said, knowing that King Shun promised to rent the shop to Qian Ming.

Eleven Niang said with a smile: "Master Hou leaked such big words to me, why can't I hear it?"

Oh, Xu Lingyi raised her eyebrows, what did I leak to you? I don’t even know.

If King Shun doesn't agree, you will definitely tell me that you have gone out of your way to explain this to me. Since you have said that you have gone out of your way to tell me this, you must have agreed.

Xu Lingyi looked at her faintly smiling face and laughed.

Why are you in such a good mood today?

Eleven Niang looked at it and muttered secretly in her heart.

Could it be that something happened in the temple that made him happy?

Xu Lingyi was indeed very happy.

Fan Weigang's matter was finally confirmed to be the result of the Emperor's hatred of iron.

Opening a shop is not polite according to the old rules. There was a bit of joy in his expression, which made his face warm and bright. However, since we are sisters, it is not appropriate to go empty-handed. I think we can pay forty taels ourselves.

As a gift, you can give them another hundred taels of silver privately as our congratulations.

There is no need for Amber to inquire. Xu Lingyi has already made it very clear that there is no customary practice in opening a shop.

But if I took one hundred taels of silver, wouldn't it make it difficult for my sister-in-law to be a good person?

Eleven Niang said with a smile: My sister-in-law came to discuss this matter with me two days ago. She said that if the fifth sister opened a dried fruit shop, we would each contribute fifty taels, which is a sign of friendship between sisters.

You know these things. Xu Lingyi said with a smile, fifty taels then. Then he and Eleven Niang went to the Madam's house, without mentioning where the ninety taels of silver came from.

Eleven Niang thought that she still had a hundred taels of silver in her hand, so she decided to get over this difficulty for the time being.

Amber discussed in a low voice with Eleven Niang: Do you want to tell Da Nai that we can turn around for a month first?

No need. Eleven Niang said that she helped arrange the marriage of Fifth Sister, and she also helped arrange the marriage of Ten Niang. If she had meant it, she would have asked.

Amber couldn't help but darken her eyes after hearing this.

Ji Tingke replied that Eleven Niang was taught that if a woman wants to be spiritually independent, she must be financially independent. Although the big problem of courtesy has been solved now, she still wants to make a living.

Hu Hui said, "You can grow seeds, but you need such a big greenhouse."

This involves cost issues

You send a message to Jiang Bingzheng and ask him to go to the street and see what the prices of flower dew are.

Hu Hue left in response, and Manager Bai asked to see her and brought her some silver: The Marquis said it would be useful for private use, so he asked me to take these one thousand taels from the room slip and give them to you.

Eleven Niang didn't know what Xu Lingyi meant, and she couldn't say I didn't know in front of Manager Bai. She accepted it with a smile. When Xu Lingyi came back, she gave him a thousand taels of silver notes: "You want to use it privately, please send it to him."

I'll keep it in my hand first.

Xu Lingyi didn't even look at the banknotes, and said calmly: If anything like this happens to Zichun in the future, just use it to pay the bills.

Eleven Niang had some premonitions when Manager Bai gave her the banknote. Now that the premonition has come true, she feels very complicated.

Although Xu Lingyi is taciturn, he is tall, handsome, thoughtful, gentle and considerate. He is the kind of boy she admires. Unfortunately, they received different educations, which destined them to have their own persistence and never become lovers.

The faint regret in her heart faithfully reflected on her body. When he entered her body, she broke out in cold sweat and felt even more uncomfortable than the first time.

Xu Lingyi whispered in her ear and caressed her gently.

But she only felt that the process was too long and hoped it would end soon
