Chapter 607
As soon as the sky was dim, Cui Ling came in quietly, and took a fire book to relight the dragon, phoenix and red candles on the table.
She turned around and was about to wake up her own girl, but she saw the figure in the red tent swaying, and then the golden thread and red gauze were flipped left and right, Jiao Shun yawned and sat up, putting his two thick hairy legs on the feet After a ride, he asked, "What time is it?"
Seeing that he was naked and open, Cui Ling didn't dare to look at him too much, she hurriedly lowered her head and muttered: "It's, it's close to Maozheng [six o'clock]."
Jiao Shun nodded slightly, stood up and stretched his limbs and said, "Go get a basin of water—remember in the future, after I get close to your girl at night, I should come in to help deal with the aftermath."
Cui Ling's face became more and more red, and the mosquitoes seemed to respond, turning around and running away.
But just after going out, he came back again, buried his head in front of his chest and said in a timid voice: "Gu, aunt... Madam should get up too, otherwise I'm afraid I'll be laughed at."
Jiao Shun waved his hand: "Yesterday she was terrified, and she was exhausted at night, let her sleep a little longer, and it won't be too late to wake her up after I finish washing."
Cui Ling backed out again.
Not long after, he came in with a basin of warm water, carefully placed it in front of the bed, dipped a towel in it and lifted it in front of Jiao Shun, but he didn't know where to start.
Seeing this, Jiao Shun asked for a towel to wipe off the buttocks and buttocks first, then put on the obscene clothes and pants, and ordered her to change into a towel, Cui Ling became more natural, and served her carefully.
Jiao Shun asked again casually: "Including you, how many maids did you marry as dowry?"
"Four."
Cui Hui replied: "There are four servants, four servants, and two families—but they are all temporary additions, and I haven't even recognized them yet."
"I said."
Jiao Shun said: "I'll discuss it with Xing tomorrow and transfer Xiangling here. She is a non-competitive person, and she has the same interests as your girls—and Qingwen and Hongyu, which of these two do you think is suitable?" some?"
Siqi is Xing Xiuyan's dowry maid, so naturally she cannot be transferred at will.
As for Xiangling, Qingwen, Yuchuan, and Hongyu, they all serve Jiao Shun in theory, and it is also common practice to assign two of them to be by Shi Xiangyun's side.
"Qingwen."
At this time, Shi Xiangyun's lazy and sweet voice came from the red tent, and I heard her say: "I heard that sister Qingwen stayed in the old lady's house for a long time, and she was a little estranged from Siqi and the others. We are acquainted, if sister Xing is willing to let go, why not... Oops!"
Just as she was talking, Xuexue suddenly cried out in pain.
Cui Li thought something was wrong, she hurriedly opened the curtain to visit in fright, but saw Shi Xiangyun sitting on the bed hugging the quilt, touching the three inches below the navel and frowning, when she met Cui Li's probing gaze, she suddenly turned red again Face, changed the subject bluntly: "Why didn't you call me earlier?"
Cui Ling also understood at this time, the burning clouds that had just faded immediately covered her cheeks again, Qiqi Ai said: "It's my uncle—it's my master who loves my aunt...I love my wife, let me not wake you up in a hurry."
Xiangyun ordered her to quickly change a basin of water.
When she obediently withdrew, she breathed a sigh of relief, squinted at Jiao Shun shyly and charmingly, endured the pain and moved her body a few inches sideways, and took out the Supa with red tassels from under the quilt, carefully Fold it well and put it into the small box that was prepared earlier.
Seeing this scene, Jiao Shun hesitated to speak, but in the end he still didn't have the nerve to ask for it, and he reluctantly gave up the urge to add one more treasured item.
When the husband and wife were tidied up, Xu sent someone to pass the word, saying that instead of going to the west courtyard where the couple lived, it would be good to go directly to the east courtyard of Jiaoda University [see Chapter Easter Egg for details].
So the two led Cui Ling to the east courtyard through the two gates.
Laiwang and his wife and Jiao Dazao were waiting in the living room, all of them were well-dressed, but although Laiwang was smiling, he couldn't hide the sadness in his eyes.
Although Jiao Da is just a adoptive father, first of all, this is Jiao's residence, and Laiwang and his wife don't compete with him for this, so he was the first one to offer tea.
But seeing the daughter of the Hou Mansion kneeling respectfully in front of him, Jiao Da, who has always been fearless, panicked, got up subconsciously, and tremblingly said: "I can't, I can't, get up!"
After moving into this Jiao's mansion, the old man's heart was half gone, he looked a lot more amiable, but he was also getting older.
Seeing this, Laiwang went forward and pushed him back down again, and said with a smile, "What can't be done? Logically speaking, it should be like this."
After sitting down, Jiao Da regained his composure, then took the tea bowl and drank it with his head up, put it on the coffee table beside him, and laughed loudly: "I don't think I, Jiao Da, have today!"
As he said that, he first handed Xiangyun a pair of jade bracelets, and then ordered the servant who served him to take out a small box, and wiped the tea stains from his beard as she said: "They gave me this bracelet yesterday, it's not worth it. ——But my old man has nothing to give you, and I have nothing to spend the monthly money I get these days, so I might as well borrow flowers to offer Buddha."
But it turned out that the box contained five or six hundred taels of silver.
Xiang Yun hurriedly declined, Jiao Da immediately sternly said: "This is not for you, it is for my grandson—if I can see my grandson, I will die without regret!"
Laiwang smiled bitterly and shook his head: "On this day of great joy, why did my elder brother say these things are unlucky? With your body, you will definitely be able to see the birth of your little grandson with your own eyes."
Next, it is natural to serve tea to the real parents-in-law.
Mrs. Xu took the tea and drank it all down. While stuffing the gift she had prepared to Shi Xiangyun, she quickly pulled her up and looked at her up and down. Then he pulled Xiangyun and seemed to have endless words.
Seeing this, Laiwang smiled and said: "Brother Shun and I have some things to discuss, you two might as well go back to the main courtyard to talk, we will be there after a while."
Wait for Xu to take Shi Xiangyun to go.
Laiwang and Jiao Shun sent Jiao Da inside to rest, and the father and son returned to the table and sat down.
Before Laiwang could speak, Jiao asked casually, "Father, do you already know?"
Laiwang nodded: "I saw that something was wrong yesterday, so I asked Shuanzhu for questioning after everyone had dispersed in the evening."
After a pause, he said again: "But what he said is not exhaustive, what's going on, you can talk to me about it."
By the way, Jiao explained what happened yesterday, as well as his own guesses.
After hearing this, Lai Wang couldn't help but become more bitter, and sighed: "How could this be, how could this be? The emperor is still in his prime, how could he suddenly... If there is really something good or bad about this, what should we do?!"
As he spoke, he suddenly lowered his voice and asked, "Then how should we deal with it?"
Jiao Shunsui arranged for his own successors, and told him without any concealment - such a big matter of ransacking the family and destroying the family would definitely not be entrusted to others.
"Sigh~"
After hearing this, Laiwang couldn't help but gasped, and said "why is that so" several times.
No matter how much Jiao Shun integrates into this world, he is a time traveler after all, and he has always been a little less in awe of the imperial power and the court than others, so when he felt his life was in danger, he did not have the slightest psychological barrier to do it. preparation.
But Laiwang was born and bred, and he was a slave in a wealthy family since he was a child, and he feared authority the most. Hearing that his son was thinking of the Qing emperor, it was naturally difficult to accept it calmly for a while.
Jiao Shun saw that his father's face was pale and weak, and he was relieved at the moment: "It may not be that far, my son just wants to be prepared for any danger - even if we don't attract it when the time comes, it can be used as a bargaining chip to settle down."
Although he heard what his son said, Laiwang did not feel at ease because of this, he sighed for a while, and finally sighed helplessly: "Everything is a blessing and a curse. Since we have inherited this wealth, we must suffer some karma."
Jiao Shun got up and poured him a cup of tea, and said with a smile: "I'm not afraid of anything else, but I'm afraid that Dad, you are suspicious and thinking about things, and you will hurt your body first - our family wants to survive this disaster, but You have to work hard."
"I save it, I save it."
Doesn't Laiwang know the truth of father and son soldiers in battle?
Immediately drank the cup of tea, got up and said: "Let's go, don't make your wife wait."
Saying that, he greeted the back room, and led his son to the main house in the middle.
Don't want to run into the housekeeper Liu Wu on the way, seeing him hurrying towards the main house, Jiao Shun hurriedly called him to ask why he was in a hurry.
"Go back to the master and the old man."
Liu Wu trotted over hurriedly, bowed and said, "The Rongguo Mansion sent someone to report the funeral, saying that their grandpa passed away."
In ancient times, 薨 was a special term for princes and kings, but today, it has long been depreciated like other honorific titles, and people above the third rank dare to use 薨.
Looking at each other with Laiwang, Jiao Shun asked again, "How did you die?"
"I heard that yesterday I was frightened by great joy and great sorrow, and I couldn't hold on for a while..."
The father and son couldn't help but looked at each other again, feeling a little baffled in their hearts. The one who was arrested yesterday was Baoyu. Although Sun Shaozu fled looking at the door, it was a bit timid, but Jia She would be overjoyed and saddened to die because of this. It's a bit far-fetched.
After dismissing Steward Liu, Laiwang frowned and said, "How are you going to deal with this matter, do you want to go and have a look?"
"I must go, otherwise I'm afraid I'll be called 'cool' again." Jiao Shun replied: "But there is no need to rush, and it will not be too late to go after Xiangyun returns to Ning."
…………
In a flash, it was three days later.
Although the members of the Long Guard had retreated, Jia She's funeral was still very deserted, not to mention old relatives and friends, even the relatives of the same family did not come.
This allowed all the spirit guards in Rongguo Mansion to truly see what it means to be warm and cold.
But said it was early in the morning.
Youshi led Yindie to take a shortcut to the Dongkua courtyard, and heard a few servants whispering through the wall, saying that it was because Mrs. Wang was in a hurry to go to the doctor and forced the old man to submit a booklet to Baoyu to intercede. He didn't catch his breath, and died suddenly.
Youshi listened for a while, coughed with a straight face, the servants were frightened and fell silent, and they felt a little relieved when they saw that it was the grandma of Dongfu.
Seeing this, Youshi became even more displeased.
Then he found Wang Xifeng who was supporting the spirit, told all the gossip he had just heard, and said: "Even if you turned your back on the second wife, it's not good to let such gossip spread, otherwise... ..."
"Good sister, you just need to relax."
The filial Wang Xifeng interrupted her, looked at the Ping'er Yindie on the left and right, and suppressed her voice: "The enemy said that he will come after Sister Yun returns to Ning, so it should be today, right?"
In fact, those news were released by her and Jia Tanchun.
After all, the matter of Mrs. Wang's visit cannot be concealed at all. Rather than letting the outside world speculate wildly, it is better to release some news that avoids the seriousness and ignores the trivial.
When Youshi heard her interruption, he immediately rolled his eyes: "When is this, are you still thinking about that friend?"
"Where is I thinking!"
Wang Xifeng pointed to the inside, and jokingly said: "It's clear that our wife is thinking too hard, she secretly asked me yesterday, saying that it's too late to get pregnant again at this time."
Youshi couldn't help laughing out loud, quickly covered it with a handkerchief, and when he suppressed his smile, he pulled Wang Xifeng and said, "Speaking seriously, when will you give Ping'er to him?"
Wang Xifeng glanced back at Ping'er: "Why do you ask this?"
"I don't want Yindie to join in the fun."
You Shi whispered: "I heard that the boat in the southeast has already docked, and the money you put in has at least tripled!"
When Wang Xifeng heard her mentioning this matter, she almost couldn't hold back her smile.
Originally, although ocean trade was huge profits, they couldn’t make so much money, but firstly, Jiao Shun took the lead in raising all the good things; secondly, the Consul General personally helped solicit business, and raised the prices for these with the help of his official status; In addition, because of the Xiawu War, there was a new round of China fever in the upper echelon of Europa.
The combination of all kinds of factors caused Wang Xifeng to make a net profit of three times the 5 taels of silver invested!
Of course, because of the names of the historians and the Wang family, it is inevitable that some profits will be made in the end, but there will always be 8 to [-] taels of silver with interest.
Coupled with the smothering of Jia Amnesty, Wang Xifeng's return to power is a foregone conclusion.
Fortunately, Baoyu was still locked up in the Zhenfu Department, and the uncertain future of Rongguo Mansion was always on her mind, otherwise she would have to laugh every day in front of her father-in-law.
She managed to control her expression, and gave Youshi a sideways glance: "You are really the emperor who is not in a hurry for the eunuchs. You have to wait for him to bring it up before you can care about it."
Saying that, she looked at Ping'er and then at Yindie, then shook her head and sighed pretendingly: "I'm afraid that the newlywed Yaner would be so happy that he would forget about these promises long ago."
Yindie was obviously taken aback, and subconsciously tensed her face.
Ping'er just smiled lightly.
Wang Xifeng was still waiting to tease a few more words, when he saw Qin Xian's wife Yang came to report that Uncle Jiao had come to worship.
Wang Xifeng and Youshi said in unison: "Please!"
But Yang said: "I was going to invite you in directly, but the third girl stopped me on the way."
Wang Xifeng and Youshi looked at each other, shook their heads and said, "So there is something more urgent."
The side hall of the east cross courtyard.
Tanchun invited Jiao Shun to the side hall, and asked Jiao Shun how to deal with it without hesitation.
This has not been done yet, Jiao Shun naturally refused to tell her his heart, so he said a few half-truths and half-false perfunctory.
Tanchun didn't bother, he looked at Jiao Shun for a long while, and said word by word: "A man can't live with five tripods, and he should die with five tripods - I believe Brother Jiao is not someone who just sits and waits to die!"
