Unparalleled Fortune in Qing Dynasty

Chapter 333 Salty, Salty

The eighth elder brother hurriedly said: "Fu Jin has his own heart, how can I despise it."

So under the watchful eyes of Fujin and a group of servants, Brother Ba insisted on drinking the soup made by Fujin. Seeing that Fujin couldn't stop him, he thought that he didn't shake too much salt into it, right? ? ?

She suddenly forgot how much salt was shaken into the pot just now, but it was too late to recall now.

The eighth elder brother picked up the bowl and drank with a spoon.

As soon as he finished his first sip, Brother Ba had a strange look on his face.

I was stunned.

The elder princes of this generation may have followed Kangxi's habits and are very keen on health preservation. Most of them like to eat lighter food. This soup is indeed a bit too salty for the eighth elder brother.

Ba Fujin had been staring at him, and seeing that his expression was not right, he hurriedly asked: "But what's wrong with the taste, it's my first time making soup and I don't have much experience, if it doesn't taste good, don't embarrass yourself."

The eighth elder brother looked at him, Fujin, and what he thought was that he originally thought that Fujin was just adding some ingredients to the pot, and the others were done by the people in the kitchen, so as to taste the salty taste in his mouth, and the eighth elder brother thought I'm afraid she really did it herself.

He thought about the recent cold relationship between the two of them. He didn't want to live like this anymore. He was willing to let her dominate the family in the backyard. Besides her family background was beneficial to him, he also liked her temperament .

He is used to the tenderness of his mother-in-law, and he likes the proud and bright Fujin.

Thinking about it this way, Eighth Brother felt that this medicinal soup could not "live up".

So he forced himself to show a smiling face, and said, "The soup made by Fujin is very delicious."

After finishing speaking, he drank the rest of the soup in one gulp. After eating the salty soup, Eighth Brother almost couldn't control his expression.

Ba Fujin felt something was wrong, he didn't look like he had eaten something delicious.

She had some doubts about the taste of this pot of soup.

Just when she was about to say that she wanted to try it, Brother Ba suddenly said: "By the way, Fujin, I have something to tell you today. Let's go to the house and say that the kitchen is not convenient."

Brother Ba really didn't want to stay in the kitchen anymore. He felt that the whole kitchen was filled with a salty smell, which made people panic.

Hearing the words, Bafu Jin intended to be soft and reconciled, and said: "Okay, then go back to the room and talk."

On the way back, Brother Ba felt that his throat was about to smoke, and he wanted to drink water crazily.

While he was thinking about drinking water, he was also thinking about what he was going to say when he returned to his room. He just came up with an impromptu excuse to avoid staying in the kitchen any longer.

A lie needs many lies to cover.

Therefore, the eighth elder brother not only wanted to drink water crazily, but also crazily thought of reasons.

Entering the house, Bafujin asked, "What do you want to say, Master?"

The eighth prince said: "Accompany me to go out for a stroll tomorrow, I can't wait to come to Guangzhou, I have to buy something for Er Niang to take back, I don't know what to buy, so you go along and give me some advice."

Brother Ba's words are obviously an excuse, his real purpose is to go out with Fujin Ba.

Ba Fujin naturally felt what he meant. Although she still couldn't forget what happened that night on the flower boat, if she continued to hold on to the past now, she would be the one who would have a hard time.

Ba Fujin nodded: "It's my duty as a daughter-in-law to buy gifts for Er Niang, so I'm offended if I say that."

The eighth elder brother laughed when he heard the words, he knew that this meant to clear up the previous suspicions, the two had been deadlocked for so long, and finally the ice was broken.

In the evening, the eighth elder brother stayed. After the couple's intercourse, the eighth fujin did not face him and nestled in his arms as before, but nestled in his arms with his back facing him. It seemed that there was no big difference, but there was another What has changed.

On Yinzhen's side, thinking of the end, Yinzhen felt that he had to start with the conflicts between family members.

Although the method sounds a bit low-level, but it is useful, regardless of whether it is low-level or not.

Yinzhen has been reading those files every day these days, and he knows everything about the family members of the officials who colluded with the pirates, and even their whereabouts.

He heard people report that tomorrow the eldest daughter of Zhizhou's family and the youngest daughter of Xuanfushi will go to Zhenbao Pavilion to buy jewelry tomorrow, and the two concubine daughters of Lord Zhizhou and the wife of Xuanfushi's wife will go together to buy jewelry.

The reason why we focus on these five people is because there are many conflicts among them. In addition, Zhizhou and Xuanfu envoys have the same level of official positions, one civil and one military, and they are most suitable for surgery.

If there is a rift between the two, all civil and military officials in Guangzhou will choose to stand in line.

The Zhizhou and Xuanfu envoys in Guangzhou are not clean, and they are doing the same thing again. They are in collusion, and they are sharing the spoils!Naturally, the military attache and envoy took more.

The conflict between the two has long been rooted.

Now only a primer is needed.

At night, before going to bed, Yinzhen told Tong Cheng'er about it.

"I'm going to Zhenbao Pavilion tomorrow, you go with me."

Treasure Pavilion?
Sounds like a jewelry and curio shop.

Tong Cheng'er: "What are you going to Zhenbao Pavilion for?"

Yin Zhen briefly explained.

After hearing what he said, Tong Cheng'er had no other thoughts or opinions.

The next day, the two woke up early, had breakfast, and then set off for Zhenbao Pavilion.

Zhenbao Pavilion is a well-known shop selling jewelry in the local area. The jewelry design inside is novel and elegant, and women of all ages can find the jewelry they want.

Therefore, Zhenbao Pavilion is very popular with the female relatives of rich families.

Although they got up very early, it took a lot of time for the two of them to eat slowly.

By the time the two arrived at Zhenbao Pavilion, it was already late.

When we arrived at Zhenbao Pavilion, we got out of the carriage, and immediately came over a man with an honest face. The man was in his thirties, with a public face, the kind you couldn't find in the crowd.

When he saw Yinzhen and Tong Cheng'er, he saluted first, and then said: "Master, the person who should go in has already gone in, the things have been given to the shopkeeper, and the shopkeeper has agreed to consign them."

Yinzhen nodded: "Yes, well done, lead the way."

"Yes."

Tong Cheng'er sounded a little confused, but she didn't feel comfortable asking in public, so she followed into the Zhenbao Pavilion full of doubts.

As soon as she entered the Zhenbao Pavilion, Tong Cheng'er saw a set of jewelry displayed on a counter facing the gate of the Zhenbao Pavilion.

The jewelry looked familiar to her, it didn't seem to be the popular jewelry in Guangzhou, but it looked a bit like the objects of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in the capital.

Thinking of this, Tong Cheng'er looked at Yinzhen, who squeezed her hand without saying anything.

In addition, there are a few well-dressed ladies and a group of maids at the counter.

When you get closer, you can hear what seems to be arguing.

"Mingshu, this is the thing I'm looking at first, so it's not good to grab it so blatantly."

The girl named Ming Shu said with a smile: "Sister Ji said this, what is robbery, how ugly, my sister didn't pay the money, and my sister didn't write your name on this set of jewelry, how could it be yours? !Even if my sister is older than me and looks like an elder, I can't do this!"
