Chapter 257 Ninth Young Master Is This Giving Her Money?
Ming regarded Xie Yixiao as one of her own and told her a lot about the Beiting Marquis Mansion. Beiting Marquis was indeed a bit weak compared to other marquises. Emperor Shengwu awarded the Marquis of the Shen family for the sake of Prince Zhaoming.
On face.
In the past, there was only one person from the Shen family who was close to Prince Zhaoming. However, he was afraid that the Shen family would have second thoughts and did not give him any power. The Marquis of Beiting had an empty title and his official position was also a false one.
Later, when the emperor succeeded to the throne, he gave them what was due, but he did not reuse them.
"They love to talk about themselves as Prince Zhaoming's former ministers. Others can't do anything to them. They can't disrespect Prince Zhaoming and say anything wrong about Prince Zhaoming, so they can only tolerate them."
"Forget it, I'm just afraid that King Huainan will be corrupted by their teachings. King Huainan is the only descendant of Prince Zhaoming..."
Mingshi sighed.
Prince Zhaoming lived with a clear name and died in battle. No one in the world can disrespect him, and the world's peace also has his contribution, which no one can erase.
But the Shen family always did things under the banner of Prince Zhaoming, which really made many people look down upon them. They felt that they had tarnished the reputation of Prince Zhaoming, but they couldn't do anything to them.
"Thank you, Madam Prince. Yixiao made a note of it and will be careful when meeting people from the Beitinghou Mansion in the future."
Xie Yixiao said goodbye and left. On the way, he thought carefully about the fight between Gu You and Shen Mingzhu in the book.
If Gu You's identity cannot be hidden in the future, he will definitely face Shen Mingzhu, and the Changning Marquis Mansion will face the Beiting Marquis Mansion. I don't know what will happen.
Thinking of this, Xie Yixiao shook his head vigorously and decided not to think about it.
It was only a matter of time before Gu You faced Shen Mingzhu, and there was nothing she could do to stop it. The only thing she could do was probably to clean up the mess, but she didn't want to clean up Gu You's mess now, so she would just go with them.
Since the Changning Marquis Mansion wants to protect this girl, then he should do it himself.
After returning to Xie's house, she prepared several foot soaking medicine packets according to the portions, and then asked Mingxin to send some to the elders in the house, and asked Black Tea to send some to Jiang.
I gave Xie Zhu a few packets along the way. Before going to bed, she tried to soak her feet. After soaking, she did feel that her body was much warmer and she felt more comfortable when sleeping at night.
I had a dreamless night. When I woke up, the sky outside was clear and blue, with white clouds. Chrysanthemums were blooming in the courtyard, bathed in the morning light, the trees were rustling, and the breeze was cool.
When I opened the window, I happened to see a maid walking in the yard. Her figure was graceful and her skirt was slightly swaying.
Xie Yixiao took a breath and felt refreshed, and his body became much lighter.
It makes sense to say that a good night's sleep will lead to a good energy during the day.
There was nothing to do during the day, so she started to be busy again. In the afternoon, she received another letter from Rong Ci. When she took out the letter, a banknote fell out, which was a total of ten thousand taels.
She was stunned for a while.
Did Ninth Young Master give her money?
What are you giving her money for?
She opened the letter in confusion:
Thank you, Miss
Zhan Xin'an
I heard that Miss Xie has bought a shop and is running it. I have many things to do and am unable to help. I would like to offer my little kindness and hope that it can be of use to Miss Xie.
According to what my mother and sister-in-law said, the medicine pack was indeed of some use, and I slept better last night. I also thanked Miss Lao Xie for making some when she got there.
Xie Yixiao read the letter back and forth several times. There was no problem in sending more medicine packs. After all, it was not expensive and not difficult. It was all a matter of effort. If it was useful, she would be very happy.
But this money...
She turned around and asked Ming Jing on the side: "Why did Ninth Young Master give me money?"
Ming Jing smiled: "Ninth Young Master probably thinks that the girl is short of money recently."
Xie Yi smiled and pointed at himself: "Do I seem to be short of money?"
Ming Jing said: "The girl gave five thousand taels to Changning Houfu and used three thousand taels to buy a shop. How can we not be short of it?"
Especially since Xie Yixiao is not married yet, she is not running the shops and farms, and the money is not in her hands. What she has is probably what she has saved over the years.
Even if others don't know that she gave five thousand taels to the Changning Marquis Mansion, the three thousand taels of silver just to buy the shop is enough to spend all the money she has accumulated over the years.
Xie Yixiao: "..."
It seemed that she was short of money, as she also spent the money from other people's betrothal gifts.
If Mrs. Xie knew that she did this, I'm afraid she would scold her all day long until she was afraid.'
So embarrassing.
If Ninth Young Master found out, she would probably lose her face.
Mingxin picked up the banknote and looked at it, feeling a little hot: "Girl, can we have this banknote? Isn't it a bit much..."
"Yes." Xie Yixiao took a breath, feeling angry and wanting to laugh at the same time, "Since he gave it all, he wouldn't want it back if it was given back. If it was a push-over, it would be unfair if people knew about it.
good."
"Since he gave it to me, I don't think I'm in a hurry to use it. Let's just leave it. If we really need it, we can use it for emergencies. If we don't need it, we can just keep it."
In this era, there are very few people who get engaged and then break off the engagement. Thinking about it, they will be one family in the future, so they won't be so clear-cut. She just kept it for him at that time.
With Xie Yixiao thinking like this, he actually convinced himself and accepted the money as he should.
She thought for a while and then replied a letter to Ninth Young Master.
She thanked him for his kindness and said that there was still some money, which was enough. As for the banknote he gave, she kept it for now. If she really needed it, she would use it. If he needed it, he would ask her for it.
.
In the following days, she continued to be busy. When she had free time on weekdays, she would go to Prince Ding's Mansion to visit and plan the planting of the garden so that people could plant things she liked.
However, since it was already September, it was not a good time for planting, so she asked people to divide the ground into pieces, and then got some hay to fertilize the ground, and then burned the hay next spring, which was just right.
Fertilize.
Next, it’s all about the shop.
She originally planned to open a small shop first, but it happened to coincide with the Double Ninth Festival. Because on this day, people holding weddings would avoid September, so she thought about it and pushed the date back.
It’s the first day of October.
As for the days of September, they were used for decoration. The first floor was used as a shop, and many shelves were made to display goods. Two or three pavilions were also separated by screens, where guests could rest and entertain guests.
The second floor is divided into two parts, one part is used as a warehouse, and the other part is used as a pavilion, which can be used to entertain distinguished guests.
As for the backyard yard, she thought about it and planned to provide a one-stop service. What she sold was a service. As long as she paid the money, she could enjoy bathing, aromatherapy and shampooing, facial cleansing, eyebrow trimming, and skin care on her hands and face there.
, massage and other services.
But in order to do this, she must first ensure the safety of the backyard. After all, it is only girls who come and go, so men must not be allowed to break in.
In addition, these things also need to be expressed in a different way, so that people cannot see at a glance that they do not belong to this era.
