Song female man

Before Shunniang made a decision on whether to cooperate with Lu Quan, she first wrote a euphemistic letter to Sister Song Yu. She said that she would open up the charcoal market and would be very busy in the future. I am afraid it would be difficult to visit her again. I'm sorry, but she hopes that Sister Song Yu is all right.

After finishing writing this letter, she called Xie Erniang to her, showed her the letter, and asked her, "Is this okay?"

Xie Erniang read the letter carefully, put it down, nodded, with the corners of her lips curled up, and said "hmm" softly.

Shunniang looked at her and said: "You, you have to believe me, of course I have to do some things to make you believe, this is one of them."

Xie Erniang asked Shunniang again, did you think about the cooperation with Lu Quan?

Shunniang said don't rush to make a decision, she will take down some of the small foot stores under the two main stores that she has recently negotiated with, and then let her think about it carefully during this period of time. Once it is settled, the family's life will be completely different in the future.

"Then, how long will it take?" Xie Erniang asked.

Shunniang licked her lips, and said, "I need it in ten days and half a month."

Xie Erniang said hello, she waited for Shunniang to make a choice, just like Qi Shi, she also said that Shunniang is a smart person, if Shunniang made a choice, she would listen to Shunniang.This is slightly different from her attitude at the beginning. At the beginning, she hoped that Shunniang would follow her advice, and she was deeply worried that Shunniang would fall into danger if she cooperated with Lu Quan.However, after the family shared their opinions at the dinner table, she also realized that she, like her sister-in-law, is a woman who is not as visionary and capable as Shunniang. If Shuniang made a choice, it would not be blind, but deliberate. .Especially now after hearing Shunniang say that it will take ten days and a half months to consider the cooperation with Lu Quan, she thinks Shunniang is right.

Shunniang mentioned making her trust her, probably besides the matter of Sister Song Yu, there was also this matter.

……

After Sister Song Yu received the letter from Shunniang to herself, she felt a little depressed.

Of course she understood Shunniang's letter, which meant to alienate herself and return to Xie Erniang's side.

Why did Shunniang write such a letter on purpose? Sister Song Yu can also guess that it should be related to the last time Shunniang was drunk at her place, and Xie Erniang came to pick her up. After the two of them went back, there must have been a quarrel, and then , Shun Niang compromised...

In this way, Xie Erniang won after all. Reminiscent of the pitiful words that Xie Erniang came to pick up Shunniang that night, and the pitiful look, Sister Song Yu thought that she would not be complacent at the moment. laugh?

For some reason, she regretted that she had underestimated the enemy. If she had known this, she shouldn't have let Shunniang go back. Now, maybe this wouldn't be the case, would it?

But what kind of situation do you want?Create a conflict, let the two separate, and then be with Xishun again?

This may be an invisible desire, but Sister Song Yu is ashamed to admit it.

In short, the letter Shunniang wrote to her gave her a sense of frustration and a sense of blindness about her future life.After returning from Jiangnan, after she took charge of the business of the Songjiazheng Store again, she suddenly found that she was no longer as motivated as before when it came to making money. Even when Xishun came to see her last time, she never considered whether she planned to do charcoal business. Pass.She has money and a son, and she only needs a person she likes and wants to spend the rest of her life with this person.She used to think that this person should be a man, but it was not until she met Shun Niang that she realized that having feelings for a person has nothing to do with men and women.Regrettably, when she understood this, a series of incidents occurred due to Han Yanei's entanglement with her, which made her and Shunniang finally miss each other.

What should she do next? When she was agitated, she sent someone to invite Cao Qihong to her house for dinner.

Since returning from Jiangnan, the two of them each dealt with some chores accumulated due to not being in Bianliang for more than half a year, and they haven't made an appointment yet. When Cao Qihong received the invitation from Sister Song Yu, she readily accepted it.I thought that when I saw Sister Song Yu, she would be in a good mood because of solving the accumulated trivial matters, and would greet her with a smile, but I didn't expect that when she came out to greet me, she would be unhappy.

After taking her seat, Cao Qihong asked Sister Song Yu what was wrong, but what was on her mind.

Sister Song Yu silently poured wine for Cao Qihong and said, "Qihong, let me get drunk with you!"

Cao Qihong looked at the bowl of wine pushed by Sister Song Yu and said: "It's not that you can't get drunk, but, can you tell me what happened to you to get drunk?"

Sister Song Yu didn't say a word, she picked up a bowl of wine and drank it all in one gulp, then filled another bowl for herself, and continued to drink it.

Cao Qihong quickly stretched out her hand, pressed the wine bowl, and forbade Sister Song Yu to drink like this. She said, "If you drink like this, you will soon be drunk, especially when I see that you are frowning and worrying. I am Strange, what made you do this?"

Sister Song Yu looked up at her, forced a wry smile on her lips, and said, "Guess."

Cao Qihong smiled slightly: "If I guessed it, can you tell me the truth from the bottom of your heart?"

Sister Song Yu was silent, and then said hello.

Cao Qihong closed her eyes, and rubbed the center of her brows with a jade finger for a while, and when she opened her eyes again, she looked at Sister Song Yu with a sweet smile, and asked, "But for that Xi Erlang?"

Sister Song Yu lowered her eyes, bit her lips, took away Cao Qihong's hand that was still covering the wine bowl, picked it up and drank half of the bowl in one go, put down the wine bowl, exhaled a strong smell of alcohol, and then nodded and admitted: "Exactly."

When Cao Qihong heard this, she let out a long sigh, and then said that she knew Sister Song Yu, a man of high school, would only lose her sense of proportion because of that brat named Xi Er.It was all related to Xi Er to pretend to be sick to get rid of the entanglement in the Han Yamen, and not to want Song Gui to force Xi Er to marry her and go to the south of the Yangtze River.Also, when returning to Bianliang from Jiangnan, she ran into Xi Er on the streets of Bianliang, and the way Sister Song Yu looked at Xi Er, all these showed that Sister Song Yu was still thinking about Xi Er, the married man.

She said she didn't understand, what's so good about Xi Er, if you say that he's not very tall, he's not very handsome, he's not even rich and powerful, why does she have to think about such a man? people.Besides, Xi Er is married to a wife, so she thinks it's inappropriate for Sister Song Yu not to let go of such a person.

Sister Song Yu smiled wryly after hearing this, and said: "Qihong, you don't understand, and I know it's not good, but I just can't let her go, let me tell you the truth..."

Maybe it was because she was depressed and drank again, or she promised Cao Qihong that if she guessed why she was depressed, she would tell her what was on her mind. Sister Song Yu told Cao Qihong what was on her mind after drinking.

As for Cao Qihong, while drinking with Sister Song Yu, she listened to her intermittently talking about some things that happened between Xi Er and Xi Er after she came back from Jiangnan. When Xi Er wrote a letter tactfully expressing that she wanted to distance herself from Sister Song Yu, she smiled again.

When Sister Song Yu saw Cao Qihong smiling, she scolded her for making fun of herself. She had told her what was on her mind from the bottom of her heart. She thought that after she said it, she, who was resourceful, could help her find a way out of this predicament. Who knew? She is laughing at herself.

Cao Qihong shook her head and denied that she was making fun of Sister Song Yu. She just laughed because she felt that Sister Song Yu was like most people, always thinking that what she didn't get was the best, and then Sister Song Yu unconsciously put herself in an embarrassing situation.Shrewd and capable like Sister Song Yu, glamorous and charming like Sister Song Yu, when will she be inferior to a butcher's daughter in the suburbs of Bianliang?So in the eyes of outsiders, he was nothing more than Xi Er, but when he arrived at Sister Song Yu's place, he became a favorite.

"What should you and I do? Qi Hong, you can help me think of a way. Since I received Xi Er's letter yesterday, I didn't sleep well last night, and I didn't feel like doing business in the store today. I'm going home, let my servant go to Cao's mansion to invite you..." Sister Song Yu stretched out a hand to tightly hold Cao Qihong's arm on the table and asked earnestly.

Cao Qihong thought for a long time, pursed her lips, and said, "Since you can't let go of Xi Er like this, then grab Xi Er and get Xi Er. Once you get what you want, you will never be like this again."

Sister Song Yu let go of Cao Qihong's arm as soon as she heard it, saying that it was a bad idea, because Xier was already married, and he also wrote a letter expressing the intention of alienating her, so how could she snatch her? hi two.

"Then let it go first. As far as I know, isn't Xi Er still renting the house under your name, and doing business with you? It is impossible for you to disappear after all."

"I just can't let it go, let it go first."

"Let me tell you, this man, when you rushed to chase him, he fell in love with you and thought you were worthless. If you leave him alone, he will think about it again. Listen to me Yes, that’s right. According to what you said just now, Xier is busy with charcoal business. You let Xier do it. Before the year, Xier will always come to see you. I always feel that Xier is too Because Xie Erniang at home made a lot of trouble, I wrote you such a letter. Maybe Xier himself didn’t want to. If you believe me, I can do you a favor by telling you how you pretended to be sick for Xier’s sake. Avoiding the entanglement in the Han Yamen, how did you tell Xi Er that he went to Jiangnan for Xi Er, if Xi Er found out, he would definitely feel that he owed you in his heart, then you will have a chance."

"...Are you really going to instigate me to snatch Xier?"

"This is not called robbing, but what you deserve. I always think that I won't let you take advantage of it. You may never be able to untie this knot in your heart."

"But if you do that, doesn't it mean breaking up the marriage between Xie Er and Xi Er? Xie Erniang will definitely hate me."

"Marriage is something that cannot be snatched away. As the saying goes, you can't slap a slap. Don't you realize that Xie Erniang is able to be with Xi'er because of your fulfillment? I can't see you looking sad and unhappy. Fortunately, Xie Er has not given birth to Xi Er's child, otherwise, it will be more difficult for you to be happy. Also, some couples, if they face some foreign enemies, it is not easy to separate, but If life goes too smoothly, they themselves will have constant disputes. When encountering something that they don’t know what to do, it’s best to hang it out for a while, and after this time, it may suddenly become clearer later.”

Regarding Cao Qihong's claim that Erniang Xie gave birth to a child for Xier, Sister Song Yu certainly felt that such worries were unnecessary.This is tantamount to alleviating Sister Song Yu's sense of guilt for snatching Xi Er back.

Cao Qihong's proposal made Sister Song Yu's heart skip a beat, and she planned to listen to Cao Qihong's, and let Xier hang out first, and then talk about it before Nian.

Then, a smile appeared on her beautiful face, and her frowning eyebrows were relaxed, and she and Cao Qihong had a relaxed drink.

Cao Qihong also looked relaxed, she thought to herself, she didn't make it clear to Sister Yu, she just let it hang out, and she couldn't remember who it was later, and it might be faded.Of course, if Sister Yu is still thinking about Xi Er, and Xi Er's wife is not pregnant, then she might as well help Sister Yu.Some people, some things, have been acquired through untold hardships, and there are many people who may find it boring all of a sudden.

……

In the half month after Shunniang asked Shitou to go to the main store of the Song family to deliver a letter to Sister Song Yu, she almost finished the talks about the small foot stores under the two main stores that had not been agreed to cooperate recently.Charcoal retail shops on Zaoshu Street have also gradually opened up sales, especially as the weather gets colder, the sales of charcoal are also increasing.She calculated that in ten days or so, she would need to transport [-] to [-] catties back to Heshan to buy charcoal. In this case, she would have to hire more boats to deliver charcoal. Hoopoe lived diagonally across the door.Ever since she moved here, she wanted to take some time to visit Dai's house and talk about cooperation with Dai Sheng.She feels that the Dai family is a neighbor on this street, and the Dai family has a lot of ships. With the increase in sales of coal, more and more ships need to transport coal. Of course, she is willing to cooperate with these big ship owners, and the transportation volume is large. , The shipping fee can also be negotiated, it will definitely be less than the shipping fee for a zero-chartered cargo ship.

On this day, she took the stone to Dai's house, visited Dai Sheng, met with him and finalized the matter of renting his fleet to Heshan to transport coal in the middle of the month.

Dai Sheng told Shunniang that he knew several other big ship owners with more than a dozen boats. If Shunniang had more charcoal to sell in the future, he could contact her for her.

Shunniang was of course happy to hear that, and they chatted happily with Dai Sheng, and Dai Sheng kept Shunniang for dinner again.

When the two were drinking, Dai Sheng said that Shun Niang was a rare young and promising man he had ever met. He had a huge family business at the age of seventeen or eighteen, and his future was limitless. As for him, he was very optimistic about it. Shunniang, I want to become friends with Shunniang, and I would like to invite Shunniang to visit Dai's house more often in the future.Shunniang agreed with a smile, and said the same thing to Dai Sheng.During the banquet, Dai Sheng called his wife Liao Shi to come out to pour wine for Shun Niang. Liao Shi and Shun Niang got to know each other and said that they would take their daughter to visit Xi's house someday.She said that the first time Xi's family had a treat, it was her official who went there, but now that she saw Shunniang, she felt that Shunniang was a kind and hospitable person, so she also wanted to visit Xi's home.

Shunniang told her that the old lady and the lady in her family liked the women from the neighbors to visit, because they just moved from Yangliu Town and didn't know many people. It's lonely.

Liao said: "Our family bought the house here and moved to Zaoshu Street for more than a year. We don't know many people. It just so happens that both of us are businessmen. With business dealings, it is appropriate to move around more.”

Dai Sheng's wife, Liao, seems to be a very virtuous woman. She is about 37 or 16 years old. She gave birth to two sons and a daughter for Dai Sheng. The eldest son married a wife last year, and the younger son is 14 years old this year. She helps the family with the work of running the boat. Son, the youngest daughter is only [-] years old this year and is waiting to be married at home.

Shunniang had a good impression of Dai's family, and after returning home, she told the old lady, sister-in-law and Erniang Xie that the lady of the Dai family would probably bring her daughter to visit Xi's house soon, and asked the old lady and the lady to receive them well.

Hearing Shunniang say that Dai Sheng also knew several big ship owners, Mrs. Liu suddenly asked Shunniang how she thought about cooperating with Lu Quan. Since Dai Sheng can find more cargo ships to transport coal, how about It's better to start the business that Lu Quan introduced, and just call more ships to transport the charcoal at one time and sell it back. After all, it will be winter in about a month, and it will be the Chinese New Year if it is transported twice.If you do the business introduced by Lu Quan, you can make a lot of money before the Chinese New Year.

Not to mention, it's not that Mrs. Shun hadn't thought about the matter mentioned by the old lady, and she had an idea in her heart. Now when she heard the old lady mention it, she said: "Mother, I was just about to tell you, I thought about it After half a month, I have thought through it. I will not agree to Lu Quan for the time being. I will accept the charcoal business introduced by him. I really want to cooperate with him. There are too many troubles and dangers. The most important thing is that I can’t go there in person. I met and talked with those people, because I cooperated with Lu Erlang, so I will be noticed by many people in the capital, and I am a woman, so I am afraid of being seen through."

Xie Erniang nodded after hearing this and said: "The official said it is right. If someone with good intentions notices you and thinks that you married me, I will go to Yangliu Town, my mother's home. If I go to Yangliu Town to check on you, I will also check on Xijiazhuang. go……"

Shunniang rubbed her brows and said: "My lady's thoughts are exactly what I'm worried about. Cooperating with Lu Erlang can gather money very quickly, but because of climbing too high, it will attract many people's attention. It is possible for me to expose the woman's body. This is another danger. It is another unpredictable thing besides the unexpected disaster that I thought of before because Lu Erlang was in the officialdom. I didn't expect it to be perfect. Before there is a solution, I will not cooperate with Lu Erlang."

But Liu said: "Even if you don't cooperate with Lu Erlang to do business together, if he becomes prosperous in the future, people will find out that you and him are sworn brothers, and then the accident you mentioned will probably come true. to your head?"

Shun Niang smiled, and then said: "Mother, I think it will take ten years for Lu Erlang to truly become a success. If someone notices him and finds me after ten years, I'm afraid I won't be there by then." Bianliang City is gone."

"You're not in Bianliang City anymore, so where are you?" Mrs. Liu hurriedly asked.

Shunniang: "Hangzhou, after ten years, I want to be in Hangzhou."

"Hangzhou? Hangzhou is in the south?" Liu asked with wide-eyed eyes.

Qi's family and Xie Erniang were also very surprised. This was the first time they heard Shunniang say that after ten years, Xi's family would move to Hangzhou. They also vaguely knew that Hangzhou was in the south, and it was a bustling city. However, they But I never thought that one day I would go to that distant city in the south.

Xie Erniang asked Shunniang: "Why do you want to go to Hangzhou? Don't we live well in Bianliang City now? If the officials don't plan to cooperate with Lu Erlang to do business, we will just do business in Bianliang City." Isn't the business done by the officials now very good?"

This question, Shun Niang is not easy to answer her real thoughts, that is, don't look at the current prosperous Bianliang City will become a hell on earth in about 70 years.She didn't want her old age to suffer from the disaster brought about by the Jingkang Incident.In other words, she can't live that long, but what about Kecheng and Huier, and if she and Xie Erniang have adopted children, she doesn't want them to encounter such a disaster.

Hangzhou, after the Jingkang Incident and the demise of the Northern Song Dynasty, will become the capital of the Southern Song Dynasty, and it will still be a safe and prosperous place. If she can live to that size, she should die safely there, and her nephews and children, too. If they can live to old age in peace, their descendants will be beyond Shunniang's care.

The reason why she considered whether to cooperate with Lu Quan was because she had considered this for so long.

She once thought about whether she, a time traveler, can change history, whether she has that kind of energy that can change the fate of the Northern Song Dynasty, and finally she came to the conclusion that she really does not have that much energy, nor does she have that much talent to support a dynasty of destruction.

If he's a man, maybe he can try his best.But first of all, she is a woman. In this era, being a woman is doomed to insulate you from politics. She has no confidence that she can cover up her identity as a woman and shed her blood for the country and the people.She thought it over, what she can do is to be like this now, not to be noticed or remembered by others, and to do as much business as she can.Save more money, be a cunning rabbit, dig a few more holes, and set up some properties in places she likes, including Hangzhou.

Of course, she can't shed her blood for the country and the people, but she can educate her nephews and grandchildren to do things that change the fate of the Song Dynasty, provided that her nephews also have this ability.Before that, she could only follow the safest way she could think of.

"Hangzhou has beautiful scenery and a pleasant climate. I've always wanted to live there. I thought, when I make money in business, I'll go there to buy property and take you there to enjoy happiness." Shunniang's face showed The color of longing.

Seeing that Shunniang yearned for Hangzhou so much, the three women of Xi's family thought to themselves, then go to Hangzhou with Shunniang.

However, Mrs. Liu said with regret that if this were the case, she would not be able to be a yamen. After hearing this, Mrs. Qi lowered her eyes, unable to see clearly what was in her eyes.

As for Xie Erniang, apart from being relieved, she was also very happy that Shunniang had made the choice that best suited her ideas. Now she could rest assured that the dangers and troubles faced by her loved ones were much less.However, she still thought about how to tell others if Shunniang decided not to cooperate with Lu Quan, so she asked Shunniang: "Then, how should you tell Lu Erlang so that he won't blame you?" Don't know good and bad, and don't even make such a big money?"
