Chapter 496 This girl is someone who knows how to hold money
Xie Zhu couldn't stand Xie Lian. Firstly, she felt that she was shameless and shameless in trying to establish friendships and relatives. She always made people misunderstand that they had a good relationship, which made her very annoying. Secondly, her temperament was really unpleasant, so what she said was right.
If it's serious, it feels like she's been humiliated or bullied.
Moreover, Xie Lian occasionally liked to be extravagant when she was outside, buying things for some of her sisters and treating them to dinner, but in fact, her parents came to borrow money in March.
The cost of Jiangshang Qingfeng Restaurant is not comparable to that of Fan Yue Restaurant, but it is more expensive than Chang'an Restaurant. Xie Lian's family has to borrow money to live, and she even comes to the teahouse to spend money, which is really despising.
Isn’t this just trying to make someone look fat?
Xie Zhu's words didn't sound very good. Xie Lian's face turned pale after hearing this. Thinking of the situation at home, she was indeed a little worried, but after all, Xie Zhu said this in front of so many people. This is not
Embarrass her?
She bit her lip and said stubbornly: "I don't need to worry about it. Since I'm here, I can certainly afford it."
Seeing that she didn't listen, Xie Zhu didn't bother to care: "That's fine, you can go on your own."
Xie Yixiao didn't know what was going on here, but she didn't have a good impression of Xie Lian in the first place, so naturally she stood by Xie Zhu's side, nodded and said, "You go and have fun."
Xie Lian wanted to stay, but she was worried that Xie Zhu would say something embarrassing again, so she had no choice but to leave and stay away from them.
She doesn't want to leave here yet. Jiangshang Qingfeng Tower is opening today, and maybe Gu Shizi will come here. She may have a chance to meet Gu Shizi.
Thinking of that handsome and noble young man, she couldn't help but feel the blood boiling in her heart. Even if she could catch a glimpse of him from a distance, she would be extremely happy.
It's a pity that because of her status, she can't get close to Prince Gu at all.
Even until now, she didn't know how other than Xie Yixiao she could get close to the Changning Houfu. She heard that Mrs. Changninghou was crazy, and the Changning Houfu had announced that they would marry him a wife.
If he were to marry a wife, wouldn't she miss him?
Thinking of this, Xie Lian felt sad. She originally wanted to ask Xie Yixiao for help, but she knew that Xie Yixiao was a cold-hearted person and would never help her with such a thing.
But she really likes Prince Gu.
Like it very much.
When Xie Zhu saw Xie Lian left, she was not afraid of others hearing her. She smiled directly at Xie Yi and said, "Last month, she came to borrow money from her family. At that time, I was at my aunt's place and happened to hear about it. The family couldn't even eat.
How dare you come to the teahouse."
"Don't look at her appearance of being very close to me and my little aunt. In fact, we are really not familiar with her. She is not even a branch of our Xie family. She is a member of the clan who moved away from the previous branch. The bloodline is far apart.
Already."
Xie Zhu was afraid that Xie Lian would do things in the name of the Xie family, and she was really annoyed.
"No wonder." Cao Sijin suddenly realized that in a family like the Xie family, the direct branches are noble, but the lives of the side branches are not too bad. At least visiting the teahouse once in a while is not a big deal. Naturally, Xie Zhu won't say anything.
Already.
"I've heard before that the Xie family branch moved away a lot of people."
The Xie family was smart and knew how to assess the situation. Knowing that the Qin Dynasty was on its last legs, they withdrew from the court, branched out and moved away, preserving their incense.
After the fall of the Qin Dynasty, I don't know how many aristocratic families were buried with it, especially those in the imperial city. Even those who could survive, most of them were as destitute as the Liao family and had to sell their ancestral property to survive.
The Xie family is the only one who still has a high and powerful position, with many talented people in the family, and they are also highly used.
Xie Yi smiled and said: "Just leave her alone. After struggling for a long time, she got nothing, so she naturally gave up and stopped thinking. Come on, thank you all for coming to support me today. I'll give you a cup of tea instead of wine."
The Xie family didn't like to mention the past events of the Xie family, for fear that someone would bring it up again, and Xie Yixiao naturally didn't like it either.
Everyone smiled and drank a cup of tea with her.
The game in the building was in full swing. The group watched it for a while and felt that it was lively, but a little noisy, so they went back to the third floor.
Mrs. Xie, Xie Yihui, and Ming were talking to several ladies. The girls did not enter the private room, but sat down on an empty seat on the railing facing the lake. Xie Yixiao asked the maid to fetch the chessboard and leaf cards.
I plan to play some to pass the time.
Girls of the same age are invited to sit in this small building on the lakeside, blowing in the wind, looking at the scenery, drinking tea, eating snacks, chatting with friends about daily life, and playing chess and cards to pass the time.
It is simply one of the joys of life.
Xie Yixiao and Cao Sijin played chess, and the others played cards together.
When it was almost noon, Rong Ci took Lu Zhui over and said goodbye to her.
"I have some things to do in the afternoon, so I went back. If anyone makes trouble, ask the king to take charge. It's not enough for him to manage the teahouse, but he is still good at dealing with these troublemakers."
"If you feel tired, go back early and rest."
Xie Yi smiled and nodded: "I understand. Is there nothing going on over there?"
I'm talking about the male guests.
In fact, most of the store openings are left to the managers below, and Rong Ci doesn't plan to come. But after all, it was Xie Yixiao who personally planned it and put a lot of thought into it. Obviously, he wanted to put this store on the river.
After the Qingfeng Building was completed, she wanted to come, so naturally he also wanted to come.
He knew that he didn't expect her to be so capable and make the opening of the business so lively. He thought that he would have enough money to live here in the future.
This girl is good at making money.
Rong Ci wanted to laugh, but managed to hold it back.
"It's nothing, don't worry, I'll have people watching."
Xie Yi smiled and hummed twice, then nodded: "I'm relieved, then you can go."
It sounds like you just throw it away after use, and it's so natural to throw it away.
Rong Ci: "???"
Everyone: "..."
Rong Ci stretched out his hand and frowned: "Then I'm leaving?"
As expected of someone who hangs out with his mother, the throw away style is exactly the same.
The girls nearby seemed a little aggrieved and helpless when they heard what he said. They couldn't help but laugh. They pushed and pushed each other several times before Xie Zhu boldly said: "Ninth Young Master, if you don't want to leave,
I’m not going to leave, why don’t you take my little aunt with you too.”
As soon as Xie Zhu said this, the girls laughed again.
Xie Yixiao glared at her, feeling that she was afraid that the world would be in chaos, and even her aunt would dare to make fun of her.
However, she seemed to have just remembered that the person who was leaving was her fiancé. They hadn't seen each other for a month, and it was rare to see them now, so they exchanged a few words.
So she couldn't help but soften her tone: "If you have something to do, go and do it. Don't listen to their nonsense. I'll play with them for a while and go back when I'm tired."
