Chapter 94 Beauty

Xu Sihai's eyes were black, and the cup in his hand fell to the ground with a bang. Mother Yao was shocked. This sound woke up Xu Sihai. Xu Sihai hurriedly covered up and said, "This tea is a little hot, and it actually smashed the cup. Which Jiulang? Jiang Jiulang? I didn't expect that Mrs. Li and the Jiang family got married. This was a marriage, which scared me.

When Mother Yao heard Xu Sihai say this, she shook her head and smiled. She quickly asked someone to clean it up and ordered a cup of tea and handed it to Xu Sihai. Then she laughed and said, "It's not Jiang Jiulang. It's Jiulang in my uncle's house, that is Brother Jing. Sister Li and Brother Jing have grown up together since childhood, and they are a good marriage."

Ah? Ha! That's it," Xu Sihai said with an exaggerated smile, "You just said that you would send someone to your door to propose marriage these days? Did you mention this? Brother Jiu is so lucky that I didn't hear my mother talk about it.

"I haven't been there yet. Madam hasn't found a suitable person for a while. According to the etiquette, people like us have to deliver a word before proposing marriage. Both families nodded, so that they can be serious to find a matchmaker to propose marriage. The person who inquires should be familiar with the woman on the one hand and the other should be familiar with us on the other. It's okay here. The Duke of Yongguo , I have rarely had contact with people in the past ten years. Where can I find such a suitable person for a while? Mother Yao explained patiently.

Xu Sihai secretly sighed and echoed, but quickly thought in his heart: "That's...this is the right person... I remember one," Xu Sihai had some ideas in his heart. Looking at Mother Yao and smiled, "I heard Leng Jia Dalang say that his grandmother is Mrs. Zhou and He Yong in the Duke of Lai. The Duke's mansion often comes and goes.

"Huh?!" Mother Yao clapped her hands and said, "Qilang is smart. Our wife hasn't come up with the right person for the past two days. You mentioned one of these words. I remember that Mrs. Zhou's niece is married to Uncle Li, the son of the Duke of Yong. She is not a very suitable person. Thank you, Qilang!"

"Thank you for what." Xu Sihai stood up with a smile and said, "I still have something to do. I won't wait for my aunt to come back. Please tell my aunt that I will come to see her tomorrow." Xu Si said by the sea that he would go out, and Mother Yao had to send him all the way out.

Xu Si's horse came out of the Qingjiang Marquis and hurriedly ordered, "Go to Lengfu."

For several days in a row, Li Tian's blue oil car or the front door or the back corner door came out two or three times a day. The fourth prince rushed into the air several times in a row. Finally, he was not very willing to understand that he could not keep an eye on the car, so he had to withdraw the hidden stakes at the front and back corner doors of the Yongguo Mansion.

Since Li Xiaozu agreed to do business with his daughter-in-law Zhou that day, he was looking for an opportunity to raise this idea with Mrs. Yang. Mrs. Yang was happy, worried and sad. She was happy that her son was finally sens and knew that the family was difficult. He wanted to make money to help him. Sadly, he was the son of the brave government, who wanted to go to be a student! After thinking about it over and over again, I don't know how many rounds back and forth. I finally made up my mind and gave 3,000 taels of silver to Li Xiaozu and asked him to rent out a few houses first.

If you want to buy a house in the capital with expensive housing prices, 3,000 taels of silver is really poor. Li Xiaozu is a careful and not afraid of hardship. He ran seven or eight times in the capital and finally found a row of old houses that are not too remote, but the location is not too bad, so the house is dilapidated and can't be seen. Li Xiaozu put down the house and ran out of 3,000 yuan, so he had to look for Mrs. Yang again. At least, he finally asked for 500 taels of silver from Mrs. Yang to repair it. Five hundred taels of silver to repair the unbreakable house is really overstretched. Li Xiaozu's calculation is almost white. Every penny has to be spent on the blade. In order to save money, he goes to the building store almost every day to find Zhou's cousin. First, he comes to ask for advice on how to repair the house, and secondly, he stares at the building shop repair. With those replaced old materials, corner waste, soft and hard grinding, and good words, he asked back little by little to repair his 3,000 taels of silver of broken house.

The east-west buildings in the capital are in charge of tens of thousands of public houses leased to officials and people in the capital, which are under the control of the Ministry of Household. There was a lot of rain in summer. At the end of June, it rained heavily in the capital for two consecutive days. Early this morning, the rain was slightly less. Qin Kun, the fourth prince, took several household officials and the store clerks of the left and right buildings. He checked the water leakage in the houses everywhere. He saw that he returned to the building at noon and just entered the building. At the store office, Mingfeng, a young man, leaned over and whispered, "Sir, the one standing in the corner over there is the old man of Yongguo Mansion."

The fourth prince turned his head and looked at Li Xiaozu, who was carefully huddled in a concave corner of the corridor in the distance. He looked at him a few times and entered the building as usual. He heard the chief officials of the building store say about the repair plan and leasing and other matters. After listening carefully for half an hour, he stood up and ordered, "The ban is not very useful. These It is also a good thing to transfer money to the Mercy Bureau. It is also a good thing to repair the house and reduce some rent money for that difficult days. Don't save too much money to repair money. If you rent money, it will be wide.

Everyone quickly bowed to answer the promise. The fourth prince stood up and strode out and took more than ten steps, as if he remembered something. Suddenly, he stopped and raised his hand to call Lu Anshun, a businessman in the left wing of the building store. He walked forward a few steps and said casually, "I almost forgot. I heard that Li Xiaozu, the son of the Duke of Yongguo, is still making progress and will It's used by few people, but it's useful.

Lu Anshun was able to work in such a fat position at the head of the left wing store for a small decade. Naturally, he was a personal essence. As soon as the fourth prince finished speaking, Lu Anshun hurriedly thanked him and said, "The fourth master thinks about the subordinates everywhere, but he is not short of people. There are few people on the plundering money, relatives, and there are few people in the selection and command. There is one of the three detention officers. I also want to move. The subordinate is worried about this person's affairs, and he can't sleep well at night.

The fourth prince said casually, "Forget it. You can't wait for the repair of the house."

"No, that's what the subordinate also thinks, and the room leaks and is uneasy..." Lu Anshun respectfully sent off the fourth prince, bowed his head, with one hand behind him, twisted his beard with one hand, and frowned and kept calculating. Li Xiaozu, the son of Yongguo? Lu Anshun thought for a long time, but didn't give any impression that the Duke of Yongguo had already fallen? Li Xiaozu wants to find a job in the building store? Lu Anshun thought for a long time, but still had no impression. For such a trivial matter, just send a little man to explain. The fourth master actually spoke in person and pointed out that he wanted to repair this area. The repair is the fatness in the building and store. Well, it seems that Li Xiaozu's poor arrangement can't be too low... ...

Li Xiaozu was dizzy and returned to the Duke of Yongguo Mansion. He didn't seem to hear it all the way, but his face smiled like flowers. Almost instinctively, Li Xiaozu ran all the way into his small courtyard and rushed into the flower door, but suddenly stopped and raised her hand to pat her forehead several times. Her daughter-in-law must be waiting with her. Li Xiaozu turned around in place and jumped through the courtyard gate steps. Just as he was about to walk out of the courtyard door, but she took it back and stood in the courtyard. The door looked up and thought to the sky and told the woman, "Go and invite grandma back, and say that I have an urgent need to find her."

The mother-in-law answered and hurried to Mrs. Yang in the courtyard to find the eldest/grandmother Zhou. Zhou Da/Grandma came back with her mother-in-law. Li Xiaozu was standing in the courtyard door waiting for her. Zhou Da/Grandma looked up and down doubtfully. These days, she frowned worried every day. What's wrong with today? He called himself back in such a hurry.

Li Xiaozu came forward and attentively supported his daughter-in-law, stuck it to her ear and said excitedly and mysteriously, "We have transshipped, it's a great thing!"

"What's the matter?" Zhou Da/Grandma was also smiling with joy from Li Xiaozu.

"Guess, you definitely can't guess!" Li Xiaozu's eyebrows trembled excitedly, and Zhou Da/Grandma raised her hand and hit him anxiously, "I know I can't guess, but let me guess?! Say it quickly."

"Good things that can't be thought of!" Li Xiaozu narrowed his eyes into a line and blushed: "There are not a few door panels and windows in our house. I've been looking for them these days. They are either too expensive or really don't look good. I heard that the store demolished a few old houses yesterday. Early in the morning, I went to see if I could find something good."

"Did you buy a cheap one? Otherwise, it doesn't cost money? Don't they want it?" Zhou Da/Grandma laughed quickly. Li Xiaozu shook his head like a drum: "No, no, what a good thing is that? I didn't find it. I haven't found it for a long time. Who knows," Li Xiaozu generally stopped selling customs: "Who knows Lu Gongshi? Do you know Lu Gongshi? That was the head of the left-hand building store. He actually asked me to call me in and said that there was a shortage of people to repair the left-hand building store, and asked me if I would like to come and do it.

"Really?!" After staying for a long time, Zhou Da/Grandma screamed. Li Xiaozu seemed to expect his daughter-in-law's reaction. His eyes still couldn't open with a smile and nodded as if pounding: "This is not bad. Lu Gongshi said that I was careful and capable. As soon as I came up, I gave him the title of stewer, and I had to take care of No. 20 or 30 people!" Li Xiaozu couldn't help straightening his chest and was a little proud.

Zhou Da/Grandma didn't know how to express this surprise. She walked around with her toes several times under the porch, and suddenly jumped on Li Xiaozu's face and kissed him. He giggled and said, "I knew you were capable!"

The girl in the courtyard hurriedly twisted her neck and turned her head and pretended not to see it. Li Xiaozu's face was red by his daughter-in-law's kiss. Zhou Da/Grandma was excited and suddenly settled down. She grabbed Li Xiaozu's arm and said, "Did you lie to me? How could you lie to me? Lu Gongshi didn't lie to you, did he? How can there be such a good thing? How rare is the difference in the work of the building? The third cousin made thousands of money and waited for a year or two before he got a job as a plundering agent. Who doesn't know that the job in the repair of the building store is the best? Are you in charge of such a good job or a stew? How can there be such a good thing?
