Chapter 210 Come on Winter
Lin Huazhi dares not say that she knows Cui Yuan very well, but she least knows that such a man will not let go of the fat in her mouth.
When he was in Jiangdong City, Cui Yuan had been painting for a long time, which can be said to be a steady victory. However, at the last moment, he withdrew breathless. On the surface, he cherished his sister and intended to complete Yan Shaobai, but deep down, he was just planning for the future.
Sun Zhengming also said that what Cui Yuan currently relies on is only the next small weaving workshop of his family. No matter from which aspect, he can't compare with the Sun family who has been immersed in Jiangbei for decades. Cui Yuan is not a fool, so he focused on Jiangdong City. According to his original idea, if he gets the stain in the hands of the Chen clan Fang is also a little confident, but if he wants to fight against the Sun family, the capital in Cui Yuan's hand is still far from reaching.
Therefore, Cui Yuan retreated and asked for the second place, Cheng Yan Shaobai, which also completed himself. When Chen Suyue was alive, there was a saying in the world that "Jiangdong Chen, Jiangbei Sun" said that the two families of Sun and Chen held the cloth market in the north and south respectively. Although after Chen Suyue's death, Chen's dyeing workshop in Jiangdong showed a slight potential, and even half of the industry was carved up, and their strength was greatly damaged. If there was no Cui Yuan to disturb the situation in it, the Sun family in Jiangbei was hidden. The dominant trend of a family.
But Cui Yuan does not want to see such a situation happen. First of all, let's not say that the foundation of the Cui family is in Jiangbei. Even if he is a weaving department at this time, if he sits and sees the strength of the Sun family, it is actually very unfavorable to him. I am afraid that he will be subject to the Sun family in weaving tribute in the future. Therefore, Cui Yuan focused on Jiangdong City, and what happened later, attributing to various reasons, Cui Yuan also understood that in order to fight against the Sun family and restrict the Sun family, he must find a comparable opponent for the Sun family, so he withdrew from the final competition of the Chen clan dyeing workshop and transferred everything to Yan Shaobai.
Yan Shaobai found what he had lost again, and Chen's dyeing factory was reorganized into one. Although there was some loss, it did not hurt his vitality. As long as time goes by, he could become the hegemony of Jiangdong.
Yan Shaobai is Cui Yuan's brother-in-law. Anyway, he is a family. With the support of Chen's dyeing factory, Cui Yuan has no worries about fighting against the Sun family again.
It can be seen that the reason why Yan Shaobai went to Beijing is understandable.
After listening to Lin Huazhi's analysis, Chunbai's face couldn't see anywhere. He was stunned for a long time and could only sigh, "I'm afraid that Cui Yuan's mind didn't even expect it early in the morning."
Lin Huazhi's gloomy face: "Yes, if we didn't go to Beijing, maybe the old master didn't realize the seriousness of the problem, so he found Sun Zhengming."
"That is to say, the silk conference at the end of autumn will be a battle between dragons and tigers, and everyone is trying to win the last imperial tribute quota."
Lin Huazhi nodded. I'm afraid this year's silk conference will be a fierce fight.
Chunbai frowned tightly, was silent for a long time, and then said, "Yan Shaobai is protected by Cui Yuan, and Chen Suyue's earlier business in Beijing may last."
As if he knew what Chunbai was worried about, Lin Huazhi said, "But Yan Shaobai is not familiar with dyeing and weaving. He may not understand some things. Even if Cui Yuan is protected, Cui Yuan is an official and can't work clearly, and there are things that he can't reach. We have the Sun family and Qingling, and there is an old master watching over us. In terms of strength, we are not inferior to Yan Shaobai.
Chunbai thought about it carefully. I don't know what he thought of. Chunbai suddenly laughed: "I think our strength is stronger, and we still have the champion. Once Lin Yuyang is in Jinbang High School, will there be fewer people holding him? At that time, it will naturally be more convenient for us to act here.
Lin Huazhi doesn't think so. Even if Lin Yuyang won the first place in the scientific examination, how can he be the opponent of Cui Yuan's fox? More importantly, Cui Yuan is protected by Cui Guifei in the palace. In comparison, she and Sun Zhengming are a little weaker.
With a sigh, Lin Huazhi said, "Everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses. Who will kill the deer in the end?"
Hearing from this, Chunbai's heart had just improved a little and was cloudy: "Why do I feel a little bad and less auspicious?"
Lin Huazhi laughed and patted Chunbai's hand comfortingly: "Don't worry about it. It's not as miserable as you said."
Chunbai pouted: "Anyway, it feels dangerous all the way. We should draw a good picture. Is it just... just inquire about Wu Shanggong? Think about it again, what other person or method is there that we can borrow.
Lin Huazhi shook his head: "I'm not familiar with the capital, so I can only rely on you to pay more attention to this aspect."
Chunbai nodded: "I understand. You can leave this to me. By the way, do you want Jinhou and the Empress Dowager to talk about it? After all, the empress dowager likes Jinhou very much. If the empress dowager can come forward, we will have a better chance of winning.
Empress Dowager? What will happen to the Empress Dowager against Cui Guifei?
After thinking for a while, Lin Huazhi still shook his head: "Don't bother Jinhou for the time being. The Empress Dowager should not be in charge of these things over the years. Let's talk about it."
Chunbai hummed, and the two said a few more words, and then heard Zhang Ziqing calling Lin Huazhi outside the house.
When he went out of the house, he saw Zhang Ziqing looking around with moon cakes in his arms.
"Why does Lin Yuyang play differently from you?" Lin Huazhi asked.
"The eldest brother went to meet the guests, Huazhi. It's too small here. The eldest brother didn't see guests in the small hall."
Lin Huazhi also knows that according to the population of the family, they live in a relatively small place now, but...
Chunbai also said, "Yes, yes, this yard is too small. Look, Qingling doesn't even have his own study. It's pitiful."
Looking back at Chunbai, Lin Huazhi said helplessly, "As long as you talk, can't you treat Qingling badly? I also know that this yard is small, but even if you want to move to a big house, you have to wait until after Lin Yuyang's scientific examination.
Chunbai laughed and said, "The old man also mentioned yesterday that there is an old yard on the other side of Mingdefang. Three in and three outs are not big, but it is better than quiet. Everything is complete. As long as you nod and go back and ask the young master and the old master later, you can move over tomorrow."
Lin Huazhi took a thoughtful look at Chunbai, and then smiled, "Don't be so troublesome. In addition, with our current identity, living in a three-in and three-out courtyard is inconsistent with the etiquette system. If it is held by someone who wants to talk about things, it will inevitably cause more trouble."
When Chunbai saw Lin Huazhi's resolute attitude, he took a look at Zhang Ziqing and said nothing more. Later, seeing that Lin Huazhi's face was a little tired, he went to see Qingling.
When Chunbai left, Lin Huazhi held the moon cake from Zhang Ziqing's arms and asked, "Are you hungry?" Would you like some tea? Or do you want to take a break?"
Zhang Ziqing didn't answer her either. She looked around first and saw that no one had entered the backyard. She turned her head and hugged Lin Huazhi in her arms, and then said sadly, "Huazhi, aren't you happy?"
When Lin Huazhi saw that the moon cake was sandwiched between her and Zhang Ziqing, she screamed uncomfortably. She quickly pushed Zhang Ziqing away, put down the moon cake and let it play by herself. Then she straightened up and said indifferently, "I'm fine, not itchy, and there's nothing unhappy."
"But when Chunbai talked to you just now, I saw that you were unhappy."
Lin Huazhi was stunned. Zhang Ziqing should mean the move. She asked, "Did you say something to the old master?"
Zhang Ziqing shook his head quickly: "I didn't say anything, but I just heard a sentence from my grandfather yesterday that after the poetry meeting, there must be more people who came to ask the eldest brother to ask for mercy than usual. Even if you don't like it, it's not as quiet as before. I'm afraid it will affect the eldest brother, so..."
Lin Huazhi laughed. She understood what Zhang Ziqing meant. It was good intentions for the Zhang family to give her a separate courtyard to live in, but in any case, no matter how good the relationship with Zhang Ziqing is, she is still an outsider. She should not only consider Lin Yuyang but also Zhang Ziqing. At this crucial point, it is troublesome for Zhang's house. Outsiders think After all, it's not good, and it's easy to get down.
Lin Huazhi also said yesterday that this is the autumn of **, and everything should be careful. Especially after just knowing Cui Yuan's intentions, Lin Huazhi was still faintly worried about something. She pretended to be a Taoist aunt and was held by Cui Yuan in her hand, afraid that Cui Yuan would talk about things in the future and embarrass her. You must think of a perfect way to block Cui Yuan's mouth, otherwise what happened that night would be like a needle in her heart and make her feel uneasy all the time.
When Zhang Ziqing saw that Lin Huazhi did not laugh or make a sound, he thought about it and pulled her into the room and quietly accompanied her.
I don't know how long it took before Lin Huazhi exhaled a gentle breath: "I haven't had time to play with you recently. You stay at home with the old man. I'll stay with you after everything is over at the end of the year, okay?"
Zhang Ziqing hummed and couldn't help nodding: "Huazhi, I listen to you and won't disturb you. I will take good care of Grandpa, and you should also take care of yourself."
Lin Huazhi's heart warmed, and it was rare to take the initiative to hold Zhang Ziqing's hand. His fingers were slender and his nails were smooth. His hand was half larger than Lin Huazhi's hand. As long as she tried a little force, she could wrap her hand whole. Therefore, Lin Huazhi always feels that Zhang Ziqing's palm is warm.
Lin Huazhi touched one by one along his little finger, and then curled up one by one. His hands were folded to surround Zhang Ziqing's fist. Lin Huazhi couldn't help laughing.
When Zhang Ziqing saw her smile, he was happy. He grabbed Lin Huazhi's hand with his backhand and sent it to the corner of his mouth, kissing one by one.
Lin Huazhi's face gradually turned red, but she didn't break away. It was the first time for such an intimate action. Lin Huazhi could feel Zhang Ziqing's every breath gently hitting his fingertips, warm and itchy, but his heart was happy.
"Flower branches." Zhang Ziqing whispered, "Huazhi, I will be very good, and I will always be very good."
Lin Huazhi's heart slowly emerged with sadness. She understood the meaning of Zhang Ziqing's words.
-He will always be good, and he will always be by her side.
The sunlight outside the window is just right, with wide leaf trees falling mottled on the ground. The light passes through the window sill and forms a bright yellow at the feet of the two people. After autumn, it is winter. When winter comes, spring will not be far away.
