After marrying a concubine, I have the ability to read minds

Chapter 335 Moon Black Wind High Night

As for the Suji hot pot restaurant, Su Long may have been frustrated, and he no longer wants to get involved in the business of restaurants. Last month, a new silk and satin shop was opened on Zhuque Street. It is said that the business is not bad, because they are all made. The fabric business is very close to the Zhao family's shop. If it weren't for the Zhao family's profound heritage, it might not be as simple as being only a little affected.

Heh, I hope Su Ji can live up to his expectations and ruin the Zhao family's business as soon as possible.

"Bizhu."

Bi Zhu, who was guarding the door, immediately walked in: "The servant is here."

"Go and send a message to the boss of Jiucui Zhai, let him keep an eye on Qiqiao Zhai, and remember to come to the mansion to say anything."

Bizhu bowed in response, and then hurried out of the house to run a business.

……

That night, when the moon was dark and the wind was high, ah no, the moon and the stars were sparse, and everything was silent, Hongmei, wearing night clothes, climbed over the wall from Yujun Prince's Mansion, and went straight to Zhao Mansion.

Although Zhao's family is not a family of officials, but because his family is an imperial merchant, the residence is quite grand. The courtyard of Wujin is also extremely luxuriously furnished, and traces of silver can be seen everywhere.

Hongmei didn't care to appreciate the scenery in Zhao's mansion, so she went directly to Zhao Mu's study and made sure no one was there, then picked the lock and slipped in.

Rich people like to have a secret compartment or a secret room to store some important things, such as gold, silver, jewelry, and bank notes. Hongmei is quite experienced in this, and she doesn't go to those drawers that are placed on the open side. Turn it over, as if you didn't see it.

She focused on those hidden places, such as on the bookshelf, inside the vase, and some decorations of old trees with twisted roots. After about two quarters of an hour, she was finally painted by Hongmei on the inner wall of the study. I found the dark grid after the painting
Opening the secret compartment, I saw a large stack of thick bank notes and a dozen house deeds inside. Hongmei was so big that he turned over these house deeds. Except for a house deed from the old Zhao family house, most of them were There is only one piece of title deed for the shop, which is a bit special, because the place is really small, it is just a second yard. According to the financial resources of the Zhao family, it is too small to raise the outer room. Why did Zhao Mu buy such a one? A small house?

And isn't this hidden space a bit easier to find?
Silently wrote down the address, Hongmei put the banknotes into her arms, put the land deeds back to the original place, and closed the secret compartment again. After confirming that there was nothing wrong, Hongmei left the study and flew away from Zhao's house.

In the early morning of the next day, Ye Hanyu went to court after eating too early. After Gu Wanning woke up, Hongmei took out the stack of bank notes that she got from Zhao's house last night.

"So much?" Chunlan, who was busy waiting for her master to change her clothes, asked in surprise.

It's no wonder she yelled, the bank note that Hongmei took out was too thick.

Hongmei stared at her because she thought she was talking too much, and then explained: "It just looks too much, there are only thirteen pieces of 1 taels of silver, and the rest are small denominations, adding one piece is only more than 70 yuan." Two, the servant has searched through Zhao Mu's study, except for those useless title deeds, and found such a few things, the servant feels that this should not be done."

She felt that with the strength of the Zhao family, there should be more than just such things, but Zhao Mu's study only has one hidden compartment, and there are really no more things.

"It really shouldn't be. Did you find any other abnormalities?" Gu Wanning said as she took the clothes from Chunlan's hand and put them on her body.

Hongmei said: "I don't know whether I'm right or not. One is that the secret compartment is too easy to find, and the other is that there are more than a dozen land deeds placed together with these bank notes. Apart from those shops, there is a second entry The house deed of the small courtyard is at Bird Clothes Lane."

"Secondly into the small courtyard?"

The second courtyard in the best location in the capital is only 8000 taels, and Wuyi Lane is relatively more remote. No matter how exquisite the courtyard is, it will not exceed 5000 taels of silver. The Zhao family, if you want What are you doing in such a small courtyard where you can't do anything?
Gu Wanning smiled: "Then you can go again tonight, maybe Zhao Mu's secret is in this small courtyard."

Chunlan said: "Master, can I go with Hongmei, if the courtyard is full of gold, silver and jewels, how much can she get by herself?"

Gu Wanning nodded: "Yes, what you said makes sense, then let He Chu drive a carriage to wait for you outside the small courtyard of the Zhao family tonight, and if you really find any good things there, bring them all back to me. Don't worry about the dowry."

Chunlan hurriedly said: "Master, we all want to follow the master for the rest of our lives, so we don't want to marry. Besides, we can often get rewards from the master, so we don't need the master to save dowry."

The four of them were adopted by the old master for their own reasons. When she was young, her family couldn't get along because she was sold by her own mother to the procuress of the brothel because she was a girl. She still remembered that she was not five years old at the time My mother sold it for five taels of silver.

It was the old master who happened to pass by and bought her. The five-year-old child had already understood a lot at that time. In fact, her mother could have sold her to someone else. Just to sell her for an extra tael, her mother asked Push her into the fire pit.

She swore at that time that her life would belong to the old master from now on.

Later, the old master brought them up, and the only requirement was to serve the master well, so her life was the master's.

The master treats them well, and the silver rewards start at a hundred taels, and they have no chance to spend their private money at all, so what do you want silver for?
They just want the master to be good.

"Okay, okay, don't do it, don't you, are you stupid? No one thinks too much money!"

Chunlan said: "I don't think the slaves think too much money. The slaves just don't need the help of the master to save up the dowry. If the master rewards the slaves with a hundred and eighty taels of silver, the slaves will definitely follow it happily." The dowry is for marriage, so she doesn't want it. get married.

At this time, several concubines from the backyard had come to pay their respects. Gu Wanning checked that there was nothing wrong with her clothes, and then took the two maids to the main hall.

"My concubine pays her respects to the princess."

Gu Wanning smiled gently: "Excuse me, sisters, please sit down quickly, Chunlan serves tea and snacks."

Lin Qingyin said with a smile: "Wangfei's dim sum is the best here. I asked the girl next to me to buy dim sum in Jiucui Zhai several times. It's really delicious, but it's not as good as Wangfei's."

"Every time my concubine makes a new snack here, someone will give you a copy, isn't it enough for you?"

Lin Qingyin said: "Enough is enough, but the servants are just greedy. Jiu Cui Zhai has new dim sum every day, so the servants just want to try something new!"

Mrs. Zhao listened to Lin Qingyin and the concubine singing and chatting happily, with a hint of sarcasm in her eyes, which fell into Gu Wanning's eyes, she picked up the handkerchief and gently pressed it on the corner of her lips Press, but the mind is surging rapidly.
