In addition to having many stores in Yunzhou City, the Qin family also owns a lot of farmland in the suburbs of the city.This time, Mr. Qin was going to the village to collect the autumn rent, probably because the harvest was good this year, so Mr. Qin didn't come back for five or six days after he went there.

At noon that day, after Chen Qingyu left the room, he saw Feng Laosi sitting on the stone steps outside the threshold.

"Fourth uncle."

Feng Laosi turned his head and was about to speak when he saw a servant girl come out with the curtain lifted. He swallowed the phrase "Qingyu" that came to his lips, and respectfully said: "Master, the horses outside are all ready."

Chen Qingyun: "Oh, let's go."

After finishing speaking, she called the maid to stop: "I'm going out now, you tell Cui Zhu not to stay for lunch."

"Understood, Master Rong."

Ever since offending Qin Yuzhen that day, Chen Qingyun has had a rough time in the Qin Mansion these days. After a few days in a row, if the two met on the road or somewhere, Miss Qin would always treat her with a love and indifference. Faintly.People under the eaves had to bow their heads, and after bumping into a wall a few times, if Chen Qingyu saw her from a distance, he could hide as soon as possible.

In fact, one of the two lives in the east courtyard and the other lives in the south courtyard, so the chances of them meeting each other are not high.However, Mr. Qin has been out these few days, and Miss Qin has to take care of the ups and downs of the mansion. Apart from some miscellaneous matters in the mansion, even the shopkeepers of some shops outside come in to ask for instructions. It was all handled by Miss Qin herself.Probably because Yuanjia Road is narrow, people come and go in and out on this day, and there will always be encounters by accidents.

No, as soon as Chen Qingyu and Feng Laosi left the South Courtyard, they saw Miss Qin coming from the East Courtyard. The maid Hui'er and a few maidservants behind her were holding stacks of ledgers in their arms. Went to the study to settle accounts.

Miss Qin didn't look sideways, and walked forward with her dress fluttering, while instructing the servant girl: "Go and ask shopkeeper Liu to come in later, there was a 300 tael bill yesterday that didn't match, and he was there last month. There is an old account that is not enough, so I will finish counting his account today, and the others will ask them to come over in the afternoon. In addition, you should ask the manager to settle the half month's money first, and then issue a bank note. Give me……"

"Understood, miss, I'll go later."

Hui'er, the maidservant behind her, said as she hurriedly followed.

A group of people walked while talking, Chen Qingjiu stood behind a rockery, waiting for Qin Yuzhen to pass first.

Fortunately, if he had come a little earlier, he might have run into each other head-on again, Chen Qingyu looked rejoicing.

Feng Laosi, who was following behind, couldn't help curling his lips. He didn't expect that Chen Banxian, who was always fearless, would still be afraid of seeing people.

"Hey, that's really strange. Why are you still afraid of Miss Qin?" Feng Lao Si asked maliciously.

Chen Qingyun said: "I'm afraid what she is doing, one more thing is worse than one less thing, we are in a hurry to go out, why bother to waste time by being polite."

Feng Lao Si said "hehe" twice, "Yes, you can say what you say. Hey, Qingyu, you see that Miss Qin is not simple. I heard from the people below that most of the Qin family's family business is actually Ms. Qin was in charge. Although that Qin Tianwang also followed Mr. Qin to do business, but all he did was trivial matters on the scene. To put it nicely, he was the young master of the Qin family, but to put it badly, he was just a miscellaneous. The real power in the Qin family is the father and daughter of the Qin family."

It's no wonder that everyone has hard-to-recite scriptures, and being beautiful on the outside doesn't mean that they are also decent on the inside.However, these have nothing to do with her, Chen Qingyu looked around for a while and said, "Okay, let's go."

Whether it is big or small, Yunzhou City is not small, because the wide Cui River runs through the city, so there are countless river branches and ports from south to north.Going out to the north, there is a wide bluestone road with brick gates on both sides, people coming and going in the market, and there are countless restaurants, teahouses and inns by the river.

Chen Qingyu has been here for so long, and has probably visited a few places. Compared with the capital city, although it is not so grand, it also has its own prosperity and prosperity.

The two rode horses and strolled slowly. There are not only restaurants and teahouses in this city, but also brothels and emerald houses. After walking for a few miles, the two came to a prosperous place. Upstairs, there are quite a few coquettishly dressed women leaning on the porch, and they wave their handkerchiefs to greet people from time to time: "Guest officer, come in and have a seat."

Chen Qingyu, who has been around for a long time, of course knows where this is, and she is not a drunkard, so she naturally turns a deaf ear to these ostentatious Yingying and Yanyan.

A coquettish woman standing in front of the gatehouse shouted at her: "Ah, hey! This handsome little brother looks at me, why don't you come to my sister's place, and my sister will drink and sing with you."

"Young master, come here, look at the girls here, they are all very beautiful, come up and have a look, I'm sure you're satisfied..."

I can't even go shopping in peace, I would have known that I would not have taken this road, Chen Qingyu held the rein in his hand, thinking to himself.

Greetings came one after another, and Feng Laosi who followed behind giggled a few times, "Qingyu, it seems that your face is quite rare, why don't we just go up and sit down casually?"

Chen Qingyun rolled his eyes in his heart, tightened his hands on the reins, and was about to pat the horse and walk away.

"Hey, don't go, look at the girl upstairs, she hasn't taken her eyes off of you since the beginning."

It was such an unfunny joke, Chen Qingyu snorted, and was about to open her mouth to tease Feng Laosi, when suddenly a mass of objects floated towards her from above, and landed on her body.

Chen Qingyu picked it up and saw that it was a silk handkerchief embroidered with mandarin ducks crossing heads. The handkerchief was fragrant and soft, and a plum blossom was embroidered with red thread on the lower right corner.

Chen Qingyu looked up, only to see a woman in a light green pleated skirt smiled at her, and pointed to her hand with a smile.

Chen Qingyu held the handkerchief in embarrassment, neither taking it nor throwing it away.

Feng Laosi smiled brightly, "Qingyu, you still don't believe me, look, this keepsake is given to you, you should take it easy, don't let him down..."

There's no end to it, it's boring!

As soon as she raised her hand, she raised her voice and said loudly: "Thank you, girl Yaai, I'll accept the handkerchief, we will meet later."

After speaking, he shook the rein and galloped away.

Feng Lao Si was stunned, and hurriedly chased after him, "Hey~ you are waiting for me!"

The days passed day by day, and the weather became colder after Bailu. On the afternoon of the 21st, Master Qin finally brought his people back to the mansion.

The next afternoon, during a small banquet at home, when Chen Qingyu entered the inner hall, the father and daughter of the Qin family were talking, and that Nanny An was also there. After seeing the ceremony, Chen Qingyu sat down.

Probably because this year was a good year, Master Qin had a happy smile on his face, and after a while of greetings, the dishes were served.Chen Qingyu is very self-aware now, she says what should be said, and she doesn't say a word what should not be said.

Although after the meal, Miss Qin didn't look at Chen Qingyu again, but there was no pinpoint confrontation, and the atmosphere was generally quite harmonious.

After dinner, a servant girl serves tea.

Miss Qin got up and went back to the house. Master Qin told his daughter a few words and said to Chen Qingyu: "I brought back some good tea this time, you can try it."

The fragrance of tea was lingering, Chen Qingyu picked up the teacup and took a sip slowly.

"Well, this tea is not bad. It has a mellow taste, a sweet aftertaste, and a bit of orchid aroma." She looked at the tea soup carefully, "The soup is clear and tea-green, and the leaves are green and smooth. It should be top-notch, but the taste is more mellow."

Master Qin said with a smile: "This is Hou Kui, a gift from a friend in a lifetime."

Chen Qingyun was a little surprised. This Monkey King was a tribute, and the quantity was very small. It was difficult for ordinary rich and noble families to get it. As for the top monkey, Chen Qingyun only met him by chance after he helped a Marquis master to watch Feng Shui in the capital last time. Even in the capital, there are many monkey chiefs who have never seen it.

Chen Qingyu said politely: "No wonder, this tea will stop harvesting in Lixia, so it can't be this year's new tea."

Master Qin said happily: "It is the new tea of ​​this year. The garden opened at the end of March. It is picked in the morning, picked at noon, and finished in the evening..."

That's why Master Qin likes Chen Qingyu, and when he talks to her, he can always talk together.

Master Qin chatted with Chen Qingyu with great interest, and drank tea again, only to see a maid came in and said: "Master, Master Tang is here, and he said he wants to discuss something with you, Master."

"What's the matter? Tell him to wait first."

The servant girl went out for a while, then came in again and said, "Master, what Master Tang said is very important, and I want to discuss it with you now."

Master Qin waved his hand and said, "Then go and tell him to come in."

Not long after the servant girl left with her head down, Qin Tianwang came in.

"uncle."

"What's the matter? It's so urgent."

Qin Tianwang said: "The shopkeeper Chengdongliu came to me just now, saying that he wanted to borrow a sum of money."

"Borrow money? How much?"

Qin Tian looked back and said, "1 taels."

Master Qin said: "1 taels? Then, you go and tell Steward He that the interest will be calculated according to the time limit. Within half a year, the interest will be two and a half cents, and if it exceeds half a year, it will be calculated as three cents."

Qin Tianwang hesitated for a while, and said, "Uncle, uh, let's not care about the interest. Years ago, didn't we want to take over those shops in the east of Shopkeeper Liu's city?"

Master Qin thought for a while, and said, "That's what happened. Didn't the price come to an agreement later on, so the matter would have gone to waste."

Qin Tianwang took a step forward and said: "Now it's all right, our chance has come, the shopkeeper Liu is now anxious to wait for the money to turn around, if he doesn't have this money, he's afraid it will be difficult for him to survive, if we don't borrow it, this Yun No one in Zhoucheng can come up with such a large sum of money at once, so..."

"What do you mean?" Master Qin looked at him.

Qin Tianwang seemed to have picked up a huge bargain, and he said happily: "In this case, let's just do nothing and never lend him a penny. After a few days, he will definitely not be able to survive. At that time, he will Those shops..."

Master Qin patted the table again, "Bastard, the shopkeeper Liu and I have been friends for decades. If he hadn't been desperate, he wouldn't have asked me for it. What do you want to do? Add insult to injury?"

Qin Tianwang hurriedly said: "Uncle, I am not doing this for our Qin family, we will neither steal nor rob..."

"For the sake of the Qin family? You are clearly here to ruin my reputation! There is no time when all the money in this world is earned, so why should you be in a hurry? How do I usually tell you to be a person before doing things? Don't you I don't understand the principles of life. I, Qin Zhongkun, have never done anything like this in my whole life, so you go and call Butler He, and I will handle this matter myself."

Old Master Qin's beard trembled in anger.

Qin Tianwang didn't get any good words, and was scolded a lot. People say that there are no fathers and sons in the business field, not to mention that friends are all for money, and it doesn't matter whether they are friends or not. A trace of anger flashed in his eyes. Looking at him, he immediately lowered his head and said, "Yes, my nephew will go right away."

Qin Tianwang turned and went out, Qing Yin lowered his head and pretended to drink tea, without even saying hello to him.

Only Master Qin scolded: "Short-sighted, it's hard to make a big deal!
