happy rebirth

Song was originally a merchant girl.The status of merchants in the An Dynasty was not very low, and the family of the concubine Shu in the palace was in the woodcarving business.And Concubine Shu is the biological mother of King Dejun, the mother-in-law of Miss Xie Mansion.Of course, the status of businessmen is not much higher.

When Mrs. Song married Master Ke, Mr. Ke's family was poor, but Mrs. Song brought a dowry worth several thousand taels.The prosperity of the Ke family is of course related to Master Ke's becoming an official, but it also has a lot to do with the Song family's good management.Although Master Ke is a prodigal, Song has money in his hands.

Of course, because Mr. Ke was too ruthless and ungrateful, Song had no choice but to hide part of the money in his hand very cleverly.

This concealment hides the problem.

As a housewife, Mrs. Song cannot always pay attention to outside affairs.Moreover, Mr. Ke began to dislike her background after becoming an official, so she couldn't easily show her face.Therefore, she ordered her loyal servants to do many things.However, Qianbo moved people's hearts, and the "loyal" servant betrayed his master.

The person who betrayed the master was a steward surnamed Wu in the hands of the Song family. The Song family originally let him manage a shop.

After Master Ke passed away, the Song family had already planned to integrate the business in hand.However, she couldn't do it herself, and the three older sons had already gained fame, so it was difficult for her to go out frequently during the mourning period, so Song decided to train her youngest son, Ke You.

Ke You was indeed a little confused, but he was not an idiot.On the contrary, in fact, his mind is always very active when it comes to money.

The shop that Manager Wu was in charge of was bought by Mrs. Song when he first entered the capital with Mr. Ke, and the emperor at that time was still surnamed Yan.At that time, the street where the shop was located was called Apricot Street because there was an apricot tree at the end of the street.The people who often come to this street are the middle and lower classes.The dignitaries would never come to Xingjie, they like to go to the most prosperous West Street in Beijing.Shout "My lord" on West Street, and half the people on the street will turn their heads.

Later, the dynasty changed.When the Li family entered the imperial palace, the original ancestral house of the Li family became the "Longqian blessed land".

As a result, several streets near Li Jiazu's house were under martial law, and temples and Chongwen halls began to be built here, while the commercial street had to be moved to other places.The former West Street gradually declined and was replaced by North Street and East Street.Apricot Street became North Street, where house prices rose by leaps and bounds.

Even though Mrs. Song is a hero in the rouge pile, she has too few days to go out. When Xing Street became North Street, and the profit of the shop that Manager Wu was in charge of increased by six or seven times, she felt that there was nothing wrong with it. .However, Ke You was able to go out every day. Six or seven times the profit was reasonable ten years ago, but now that North Street is becoming more and more prosperous, there must be something wrong.He thus doubted Wu Guanshi's loyalty.

When things got to this point, Manager Wu simply tore his skin apart. He had already found another Gao Zhi to hang out with a master of the servant of the Ministry of Rites. The shop was sold cheap.Ke You was so young and energetic that he couldn't swallow this breath at all.

But, can the Ke family beat the servant of the Ministry of Rites?It's obviously unbeatable.

There is always a lot of helplessness in the adult world.Even though Mrs. Song still held onto Guanshi Wu's contract of selling herself, but Mrs. Wu had a backing, so Mrs. Song couldn't really do anything to him.Otherwise, if the nobleman is offended, what will be the future of her children?Song intends to admit his loss.

Song also taught Ke You to be patient for a while.Ke You did listen to Song's words, but he couldn't stop Trouble from coming to him.

When Xie San's entourage respectfully invited Ke You to Yunxiang upstairs, not to mention those who troubled him, even Ke You himself was shocked.

Dazed, Ke You followed his followers upstairs.And those hooligans who were suspected of being hired by others looked at each other. Didn't it mean that Ke Jiu who was sent to the Qingyang Hou's mansion has been separated by the Ke family?Didn't it mean that Xie Si himself was not favored, and he was driven to Zhuangzi as soon as his health improved?If Xie Si himself was like a bodhisattva crossing the river, what face would Ke Jiu have in Qingyanghou's mansion?

"Could it be that kid coaxed us on purpose?" One of the gangsters scratched his ear and said weakly.

"You idiot! In broad daylight, who dares to pretend to be a member of the Marquis Mansion? Don't die?" Another gangster said, "Let's go! Since the surname Wu dared to lie to us, don't blame us for being unrighteous. Go to his hands Withdraw some money from the wallet, we will leave the capital immediately, and go to hide outside for a while."

Ke You walked all the way outside Xie San's private room, and finally woke up. He quickly grabbed Xie San's entourage and said, "I... I have a filial piety, so it's better not to go in, just stay outside and say hello to the third master. Go." At this time, people feel that people who keep filial piety have bad luck, so they should avoid it.

The entourage went into the private room and returned to his command.Soon Xie San's voice came from the private room: "Tell him to come in! We are all relatives, there is no problem."

Ke You straightened his clothes, and entered the private room with lowered eyebrows.His etiquette is quite good, and a set of salutations and greetings doesn't look petty.However, his heart was actually very flustered.After all, if he doesn't do well, Ke Qi might be hurt.

Xie San asked Ke You to sit down.Ke You sat down with his buttocks a little bit against the chair.

Xie San asked him what trouble he had encountered.After all, Ke You was young and vigorous, even though he knew in his heart that what Song said was reasonable, he still couldn't swallow that breath, thinking that since Mr. Xie asked the question on his own initiative, he would not cause trouble for Ke Qi if he answered truthfully.So, he told the truth, first he said that he was not strict in running the family, so that the manager was bold enough to deceive his superiors and subordinates, and then he said that the manager had climbed to a high position but could not punish him.

Xie San looked at the other person in the private room, and asked, "Wait, you just said... Who is the person who wants to buy your shop at a low price?"

"It is said that it is the fifth master of the servant of the Ministry of Rites. Of course, it is also possible that the servants are talking about it." Ke You heard the hesitation in Xie San's words, and deliberately acted cleverly.He didn't have the identity of killing that person, so there was room for everything to turn around.Let's put it this way, even if the young master really became greedy, how could he personally do such a thing of lowering the price?Naturally, there are servants to help him run errands, so when Dong Chuang's incident happens, he can also push the servants.

Now everyone in the private room focused their eyes on a certain person.

The man had been drinking and eating food all the time, and he looked like he didn't care about anything. In short, his painting style was very strange.Seeing everyone looking over in silence, he seemed to have just reacted, put down his chopsticks reluctantly, pointed to his reddened nose, and said blankly: "Me?"

Ke You was taken aback.Is this young man the fifth master of the servant's family?Actually bumped into the rightful owner?However, this person is thin and small, dressed in red and green, just like a little girl.To put it bluntly, he really doesn't look like the kind of domineering master who would indulge slaves and deceive others.

"Aren't you the real Jiang Wu?" Xie San seemed to be joking.

Ke You was surrounded by a bunch of noble dudes who couldn't afford to be provoked. Although he was nervous, he quickly connected in his heart like a conditioned reflex: if it's true, it will be replaced by Liu Yihua, sweet talk, incoherent... Hey, the word incoherent is just right for the moment.

Ke You felt that he was going to be incoherent.

"It's definitely not me! How can my eyelids be so shallow?" The Fifth Master said with a smile, "Maybe it's my Fifth Uncle! Well, my Fifth Uncle dared to make trouble outside, and when I got home, I had to tell my grandmother No!" He said so, but there was a hint of a joke in his tone.

Well, causing trouble is not a child's play, entertaining my dear, dear... my mother!This is not the time to play Solitaire!

Ke You didn't dare to bet on whose side Xie San would stand on. His mind was spinning very fast, and for a moment he really came up with a loophole, which could save the fifth master's face, and said: "I always think that Strange, when my father had not passed away, why did no one take a fancy to my shop, but it happened that my father passed away, and this shop made people jealous. To put it bluntly, if it is really a young master, don't plan, my father He is just a ninth-rank petty official, so there is no need to take special care of my father's face? Therefore, the people below must have made their own decisions and used the name of the master's family."

Xie San also thought so.Based on Master Ke's character, if a nobleman really took a fancy to his shop, he would definitely send the deed to please the nobleman respectfully.Those who become greedy don't have to wait until Master Ke's death to act.Thinking like this, Xie San frowned and said to the fifth master: "Go back and rectify the people around you. Your grandfather and your father's reputation for decades will not be ruined by a few evil slaves."

This is a serious statement.The fifth master also said seriously: "What Xie Sange said is true. If there are really bullying dogs in my family, I will definitely discount their dog legs!" Who can afford such servants? Breaking a leg and then reselling it is considered kind to the owner.

Seeing that the matter was settled, Xie San didn't keep Ke You.Because there was wine and meat on the table, and they were laughing and laughing. It was not appropriate for Ke You to stay here when there was no time for seriousness.Fearing that Ke You would be troubled again, Xie San appointed his followers to send Ke You home.

Ke You was dizzy all the way, the problem that made them frown was so easy... Solved?

Ke Qi is still ignorant of this.Chongling Temple and Honglin Mountain are both located in the suburbs of Beijing, but they happen to be in the opposite direction, so it takes a lot of time to go back and forth.Xie Jinhua planned to take Ke Qi to live in the temple for two days.As the eldest and young master, he doesn't care about everything, Li Yang, Li Sang and others help him pack his luggage.But Ke Qi was worried. Hearing that it had been raining for the past two days, he asked someone to add a thick spring coat to his luggage.

"Think about it again, but what else do you need to bring?" Ke Qi asked Xie Jinhua.

Xie Jinhua thought about it seriously, and said: "There should be no more... Oh, tell them to bring the Fangyan Yun inkstone, I might use it. Remind them, the incense must be made of cold ink made last winter." Plum fragrance. The sandalwood fragrance in the temple is very strong, if you use warm incense, the smell will inevitably be washed out."

"..." Ke Qi suddenly felt that he and Xie Jinhua really belonged to two worlds.He thought it would be enough to bring a few extra clothes.

Ke Qi turned to look at Li Yang, who was packing his luggage, and seeing him hugging a quilt, he couldn't help but ask, "Do you have to bring the quilt yourself?"

"Of course. Otherwise, do you want to use the quilt from the temple? The young masters must not be used to it." Li Yang said with a smile.

So, at last when they went out, besides the carriage in which they were sitting, there were two carriages following behind them.It's just going to live in the temple for two days, but it's like moving.And Xie Jinhua didn't think there was anything wrong with this, because he had lived like this since he was a child.

To Xie Jinhua, wealth and honor in the eyes of ordinary people is simple.To Xie Jinhua, luxury in the eyes of outsiders is just ordinary.

The carriage ran over the road, and the thick curtain separated the two worlds inside and outside.

The uproar in the street seemed to have nothing to do with the two people in the car.In this quiet and beautiful atmosphere, Ke Qi suddenly had an inexplicable idea in his heart.Looking at Xie Jinhua's pale lips, he couldn't help but think, wishing this young man would live a life free from worries, illnesses and disasters.

Since God allowed him to be born in wealth and prosperity, and let him grow up in peace and happiness, I only hope that God can also make him finally happy.
