Chapter 187

"I'm fine, Mama Li, you can call Mama Qin, Mama Zhao and those old folks in." Rong Lanxue leaned on the pillow and said weakly. At this moment, she only felt a burst of abdominal pain, but she had no time to take care of it.

When Mama Qin and Mama Zhao came in, Rong Lanxue was leaning there, unable to open her weak eyes. Listening to the movement, she opened her eyes slightly, looked at the two of them, thought for a while, and said, "Mama Yang doesn't care now. As for the affairs in the mansion, I think, you are also the old people in the mansion, you pick out those who can do embroidery in our mansion, and when the official forecast comes tomorrow, you will also help to do it together."

"Yes, young mistress, don't worry about this matter. We are not good at talking and writing, so don't worry about this kind of work." Mother Qin agreed, while looking worriedly at Rong Lanxue, who was as pale as paper. "Young Mistress, you should take a rest first, and don't have any more accidents."

Rong Lanxue nodded, "You guys go out and do your work first." Mother Qin and Mother Zhao agreed, and went out to pick someone.

At this time, Lianxiang took Hu Qianfang with him, but Hu hurried over. As soon as he entered the yard, he saw the panicked faces of the servants. He was anxious, and hurried into the room. Hu Qianfang was anxious. Asked: "Xue'er, what happened!"

When Rong Lanxue saw Hu Qianfang, her forbearance disappeared in an instant.Stretching out his hand, facing Hu Qianfang, he called out sadly: "Godfather..." He couldn't bear the grievance in his heart anymore, and burst into tears.

Hu Qianfang supported Rong Lanxue, also in tears, but Hu hurriedly persuaded one and then the other.

Lianxiang was on the side, fearing that Rong Lanxue would hurt her body again, she hurried forward and said softly: "Miss, Master Hu is here, so please rest assured, don't be so sad, Master Hu is getting old, Miss wants to Take care of Mr. Hu's body."

Rong Lanxue nodded just now, choked up and said, "Godfather, please sit down, Xueer has made godfather worry."

Hu Qianfang patted Rong Lanxue's back lightly, and said softly: "Xue'er, don't cry, there is a way for everything, don't worry, there is a godfather and a big brother."

Rong Lanxue gradually stopped crying, looked at Hu Qianfang and said, "Godfather, now that Yunlong is still in prison, I really don't know what to do, he has never suffered such hardship before, I am really worried he."

Hu Qianfang frowned slightly and said: "What's going on here, Xue'er, don't worry, just explain it slowly, Lianxiang arrived at my residence, she was so anxious that she couldn't speak clearly."

Rong Lanxue nodded and said, "I'm not too clear about this matter, Lianxiang, go and see if Ji Qing is back, call him here."

Lianxiang agreed, before going out here, Jiqing had already rushed over with a few servants, Lianxiang lifted the curtain, just in time to see Jiqing was about to rush in with his head down, and called out quickly: " Jiqing, the young mistress is looking for you, and it's just in time for you to come back."

Ji Qing hurried in, but before Rong Lanxue could speak, Hu Que asked, "Ji Qing, please tell me carefully what happened."

Ji Qing looked at Hu Que, his eyes were red, tears flowed down before he could say anything, Hu Que shook his head, and said softly: "Ji Qing, you are a man after all, why can't you stop doing this, quickly kill your Put away your tears and tell me the whole thing."

Ji Qing wiped away his tears fiercely, took a few deep breaths, and then said: "I just went out and inquired again, and it turned out that from the very beginning, the Eldest Master asked the Second Young Master to work in the shop, it was premeditated, it's a pity that our Young Master is like this It's easy to trust others."

"I see that although the old man is promiscuous everywhere, he doesn't seem to be able to do such a heartless thing. Can you find out clearly?" Hu Qianfang asked in wonder.

"I've made it clear that the Eldest Master can't be entirely blamed for this matter. It was the Second Young Master who forced the Eldest Master to come to beg the Young Master, saying that he wanted to go out and do something. He wanted to be in our own shop. The Eldest Master treated the Second Young Master's negligence. With a headache, hearing what the second young master said, it hit my heart, and immediately came to the shop to beg the young master, and the young master was also soft-hearted, so he agreed, and Mr. Hu knew what happened in the future."

Hu Que nodded: "I still remember this matter. Looking at the old man's sincere expression, who would have thought that the rest is just a conspiracy!"

Hu Qianfang frowned slightly and said, "Then what's going on now?"

"The second young master told the young master that he was going to get married, and that there were so many elders in the mansion, and he was afraid that he would not be able to greet them, so he asked the young master to go and greet him. He only worked in the shop and would not go back until the day was near.

"The young master also laughed at him and said: "The sun has come out in the west, you are thinking about working now, and you are getting married without knowing each other. ’ The second young master just laughed, in fact, he was waiting for official materials and official money.

"When those official materials and official silver came out, the second young master took a small half of it to the store first, saying that the rest hadn't come yet, the young master believed it, and then distributed it, because the young master was too relieved of the second young master, so he was always in the store. The old man's mansion helped, and the young master didn't return home until the young mistress was injured by the second wife that day.

"When I went to the shop the next day, I heard the workers say that there was not enough material. When the young master went back to the old man's mansion to ask the second young master for details, the old master didn't see the young master. , the second young master went out to play."

After Ji Qing finished the matter in one breath, Hu Qianfang frowned even tighter. He looked at his son Hu Que and asked slowly, "Wen'er, what do you think about this matter?"

"I see, the second young master can't do such a thing alone. Based on the second young master's nature alone, he is not the kind of person who can hold his breath. I thought, there must be someone behind this. You want to put Yunlong to death." Hu Que murmured.

Hu Qianfang nodded approvingly, "Yes, it coincides with my thoughts, Ji Qing, you follow your young master every day, do you know that your young master has never offended anyone?"

Ji Qing thought for a long time, then shook his head and said: "Although my young master has a bad temper, he is generous and kind to his servants and the workers in the shop, and the salary he gives is higher than that of other families. He has no enemies. .”

Lianxiang had been silent all this time, but at this moment she suddenly said: "How come you have no enemies, the young mistress hasn't even entered the house yet, the elder wives and the second wives in the mansion are trying to plot against the young mistress, even if they entered the door later, the second mistress didn't After stopping, together with that mother Yang, I don’t know how many bad ways to anger young mistress, I see, these people are the young master’s enemies!"

Ji Qing nodded, looked at Hu Qianfang, and said: "Miss Lianxiang said the truth. I see that we servants will no longer think of ways to harm the master. On the contrary, it is the masters who want to make money for our family. The young master's family property may not necessarily do such a thing on purpose."

Hu Qianfang sighed slightly and said: "These people, they are not willing to give, they are always jealous when they see others succeed, they don't think about what they have done, they always want to get something for nothing, I see, this matter, and The gentlemen in the various mansions cannot get away with it."

Listening to everyone's analysis, Rong Lanxue became more anxious and worried, and couldn't help crying again. Lianxiang hurried over to persuade her softly, and Hu Qianfang also held back her anger and comforted her softly.Everyone was anxious there, only to hear the sound of the door curtain, and Yupan's anxious voice came over: "Miss, Uncle Lin is here."

Rong Lanxue quickly wiped away her tears, and was about to stand up to greet her, when Lin Ziqiu said hurriedly: "Xue'er, don't be too polite, I heard what Yupan said, and I was worried, so I came here quickly, now But what happened?"

Rong Lanxue looked at Lin Ziqiu with tears in her eyes, choked up and said, "Uncle Lin, I'm panicking now, and I don't know what to do?"

"Don't be afraid, Boss Hu is here, so there's no need to be afraid." Lin Ziqiu saluted Hu Qianfang, and Hu Qianfang hurriedly saluted, asking, "Master Lin, Xueer said that you also took a batch Live, but how is it now?"

Lin Ziqiu nodded and said: "The staff on my side is relatively stable, and now the material is also used up. When Du Xiuniang cut it, she put some thought into it, so she made ten more pairs than expected. Xue'er, this batch of work How many pairs are there?"

Rong Lanxue looked at Jiqing, and asked, "Jiqing, how much has our shop done now?"

Ji Qing thought about it: "This batch is two hundred pairs of official boots, including four pairs of the master, the head catcher, and the captain, and the rest are all from the yamen servants. The official materials sent to Shopkeeper Lin's shop are probably enough for three Ten pairs, now there are ten more pairs coming out, plus the sixty pairs made in our shop, there is probably a hundred pairs left.”

"One hundred pairs?" Rong Lanxue frowned, "How many days until delivery?"

"Seven days!" Ji Qing said firmly.

"The staff on my side is not a problem now." Shopkeeper Lin said: "Ms. Duxiu heard about this, and immediately said that she would not sleep, and she would drive out this batch of jobs for Miss Rong. It's just this official information, we But I don’t know where to buy it.”

"I still have some material left over from my clothes maker. Jiqing, tell your servants to move over there immediately. For the rest, I'll go to each shop to find a way. Xue'er, don't worry, this batch of work , we can definitely do it!" Hu Qianfang said, while standing up, Hu quickly stopped him and said: "Father, you are old, leave these things to me, sister, don't worry."

Lianxiang here, Yupan also said immediately: "We are servants, so we can't help much, Jiqing, you bring some materials, we can also make it in the mansion."

Rong Lanxue looked at everyone quickly, not knowing what to say, Hu Qianfang over there said: "It's not too late, Wen'er, you go to various shops to find materials immediately, Ji Qing, take someone to my shop to move them. Fabric, shopkeeper Lin, you arrange your embroidery workers, and we will start immediately as soon as the material arrives."

After listening to Hu Qianfang's arrangement, everyone immediately became emotional and went to work separately. Rong Lanxue stood up and walked around the room in a circle. Hu Qianfang persuaded: "Xue'er, you don't have to worry anymore, Yunlong There, I will go to the yamen tomorrow to see the county magistrate, nothing will happen, you are tired and inconvenient, Lianxiang, serve your master to rest."

Lianxiang agreed, and after persuading her for a long time, Rong Lanxue slowly lay down on the bed, but she couldn't fall asleep anymore.

Before dawn, Rong Lanxue sat up, and shouted loudly: "Lianxiang, Lianxiang..." Lianxiang was sleeping, when she heard Rong Lanxue's urgent voice, she was startled, and immediately groaned. Getting up, he didn't care about putting on his coat, and ran in wearing his middle coat, and asked worriedly: "Miss, what's the matter, what's the matter..."

"Lianxiang, come and dress me quickly, I want to go out and have a look." Rong Lanxue said, turned over and was about to get out of bed, Lianxiang saw that Rong Lanxue was fine, she just felt relieved, and quickly stepped forward to support her Said: "Miss, you should lie down quickly, you were so tired yesterday, you should rest more today, Mr. Hu, shopkeeper Lin has made arrangements for yesterday, so you don't have to worry about it."
