Mountain wild man Ziwang and his wife

Chapter 321 The Shao Family's Abacus

Shen Xiao frowned, "Didn't I tell you to refuse?"

The concierge said with a bitter face: "My lord, the younger one just refused according to my lord's order, but the young man in Shao's mansion explained that Shao Yuanwai will wait for your lord, and if your lord is not free, Shao Yuanwai will hold a banquet at home the day after tomorrow. If you The day after tomorrow is useless, his old man will hold a banquet the day after tomorrow...

My lord, I don't know if I should say something or not..."

"Don't say it if it's inappropriate!" Shen Xiao walked towards the backyard after finishing speaking.

concierge:"……"

In the end, I still bit the bullet and went after Shen Xiao: "My lord, this Shao Yuanwai is one of the three giants in our Jiangnan Mansion, and the masters of the mansion and Taiwan will give some face. Mr. Futai, Mr. Manufacturing Bureau, Mr. Qi Yuanwai, a salt merchant, and Mr. Qiu Yuanwai of Jiangning Weaving...

If you don't go... not so good. "

Shen Xiao frowned even more when he heard that, he just came to Jiangnan Mansion to buy some things, Shao Chunsheng asked him again and again, probably for Mu Zhiqi's sake.

But after thinking about it, if Qiu Yuanwai, who is weaving in Jiangning, is going...then he can just buy some good brocade garments and embroidery through him.

Such as wedding dress.

"Well, tomorrow's official meeting will be on time for the banquet!"

The concierge breathed a sigh of relief, he took advantage of it, if the adults don't go...it won't be easy to explain to Shao's mansion.

Shao Mansion.

Shao Chunsheng, who was in his sixties, lived in Xinna's concubine's house. This concubine was fifteen years old, and she was a skinny horse from Chunyi Pavilion. The old man bought it home at a high price. It tasted really good. These days Live in her yard.

A sprig of pear blossoms pressing on a crabapple, such a short matter made Shao Chunsheng feel that he was still young.

"Master, that Mr. Shen is too disrespectful to you. You have invited him again and again, but what if he doesn't come tomorrow? Where is the face of the master?" Xue Rou'er didn't know Shen Xiao. Shao Chunsheng's gossip about Shen Xiao in front of him was purely to show that he was too tall to make Shao Chun feel wronged.

"What is he? He's just a low-level military general. This kind of person is a rough guy. It's the blessings he has accumulated in eight lifetimes for the master to give him face. He doesn't even know what's good and what's wrong!"

Shao Chunsheng bluffed and said: "Presumptuous, you dare to blame my guest, sir?"

As soon as his face sank, Xue Rou'er became frightened, and hurriedly knelt down to beg for mercy, can the three giants of the Jiangnan Mansion be kind?

When I like you, I tease you as a toy, and when I don't like you, I throw you like a broken rag.

Shao Chunsheng got up and left, before he left, he said: "You should rest well, you will perform well at the banquet tomorrow, you can't disgrace my master!"

"Yes..." Xue Rou'er crawled on the ground and replied tremblingly.

Coming out of her courtyard, Shao Chunsheng's personal servant leaned close to him and said in a low voice: "Master, I think what Aunt Xue said makes sense, what do you think Shen Xiao means?
Wouldn't it be Marshal Mu's intention that he didn't go to the banquet? "

Shao Chunsheng's left and right hands, the people Xue Rou'er had to carry with him, were obviously the most proud people in front of him. Xue Rou'er would reprimand him for saying this, but Shao Tang would habitually think about it.

"Unexpectedly, a fourth-rank commander would not dare to take things seriously in front of the old man. It should be Mu Zhiqi who told him something." Shao Chunsheng stopped and said with his hands behind his back.

Shao Tang frowned: "How many years has it been? Miss Siyuan is now 16 years old... It's just a stone that's covered in heat, why is Marshal Mu still like that?"

Shao Jingyi is Shao Chunsheng's daughter-in-law. Giving her daughter-in-law to Mu Zhiqi as a concubine shows how much Shao Chunsheng wants to win over Mu Zhiqi, but it's a pity that Mu Zhiqi... is too cautious.

He didn't even want to have anything to do with the Shao Mansion.

Although the Shao family used some tricks to get Mu Zhiqi to take Shao Jingyi into the house, but Shao Jingyi gave him children, and even one son died on the battlefield, but he still couldn't warm Mu Zhiqi's heart.

The reason why Shao Chunsheng tried to give all his prostitute daughters to Mu Zhiqi was because he wanted to smuggle goods to Xiliang, and the profit would be much greater than his shipping.

It's a pity that Mu Zhiqi didn't let go of this at all. With him guarding the five prefectures of Xishan, the smuggling business became very difficult.

"This time it's up to Siyuan, after all, this Shen Xiao is also Mu Zhiqi's favorite person, there are very few people in this world who are as inflexible as him.

If Shen Xiao is taken down, Mu Zhiqi's end might loosen. "

If Mu Siyuan (Miss Mu Shi) marries Shen Xiao, with her, even if Shen Xiao is only a fourth-rank commander, he doesn’t need to seek Mu Zhiqi’s consent, but only needs him to collude with them secretly , and then use money to clear the way, it can also open up the smuggling business in Xiliang.

However, even if Mu Zhiqi finds out about it, it doesn't matter. His son-in-law is in the water, which is equivalent to dragging him into the water.

Shao Chunsheng's calculation was very good.

"The master is wise." Shao Tang said, "Miss Siyuan has been close to the master since she was a child, and she will definitely listen to the master."

Of course, Miss Mu Shi is related to Shao Chun. She is a concubine girl with very little monthly income, and Mu Zhiqi is a person who devotes herself to military affairs. All her wealth is spent in the army. Harsh.

Except for the son, the daughter doesn't care about the children. The mistress can't control her in the capital. In order to win over the father, the aunt always uses the dowry to buy food or donate clothes to the military camp...

If she wanted to eat, drink, and dress well, she had to point to her grandfather Shao Chunsheng.

"Have you delivered the things to Siyuan? If Shen Xiao comes tomorrow, let Siyuan behave well." Mu Zhiqi said.

"Returning to the master, I have sent all the clothes and jewelry to Miss Siyuan. They are all the latest styles in Jiangnan Mansion this season. In addition, Zhuang Niang also prepared two for Miss Siyuan, and they have all been sent over." Shao Tang bowed.

Only then did Shao Chunsheng nod his head, and walked towards the main room.

The next day, Mu Siyuan got up early in the morning to get dressed up, and she was very satisfied with her makeup after finishing dressing up, so she rewarded the two makeup girls with five taels of silver.

The two make-up ladies were very happy, and they flung out their compliments as if they didn't want money.

"It's not because the handmaid's workmanship is good, it's because Miss Ten is born well. It's the easiest for us to put on makeup for Miss Ten. It doesn't take much effort at all."

"That's right, Miss Ten is a celestial figure, and this servant is afraid that her skills won't be able to impress Miss!"

"Your craftsmanship is excellent!" Mu Siyuan said: "I will beg my grandfather to buy you later, and then you can follow me to the Xishan Camp."

The two makeup ladies: "..." They have a family and a mouth!

If I knew it earlier, I wouldn't be so cheap!

Sure enough, you can't lie, and you will be struck by lightning.

"Miss, miss..." At this moment, Chunxiang hurried in from the outside with a happy expression on her face.

Miss Mu Shi stood up abruptly, lifted her skirt and took two steps outside, and asked with bright eyes, "Is Brother Xiao here?"
