Chapter Fifteen Pingmei Negotiations

When you ask for help from others, you should lower your attitude, and the proud Sixth Miss is no exception.

But when I think of the sarcastic remarks I made to my husband-in-law a few days ago and the big fight yesterday, I feel uncomfortable.

After the quarrel yesterday, the husband-in-law didn't seem to take it too seriously. But for Miss Six, this matter was a big deal, even a very big deal.

She had had a quarrel with her second aunt (Mrs. Tang Ning), but she didn't say a word to the person named Qian for the next two years, pretending she didn't see her when they met. If Mrs. Cao (Tang Ning's mother) hadn't said it in person,

She probably won't pay attention to that woman even now.

This shows how much Miss Six is ​​a vengeful person.

In fact, she also held a grudge during this quarrel. She just wanted to ask for help from others, so she could only endure it.

No, the sixth lady was sitting on the couch, hugging her big orange cat, trying her best to control her emotions, waiting for her husband to come back from bathing. Suddenly she glanced sideways and saw the package that was going to be given to Su Ping. She put the cat down and opened the package.

I took a look. The clothes had been soaked by the rain and were wrinkled. When I unfolded them, I found that the creases were too obvious because they had been left there for too long.

I wanted to do some ironing, but I was worried that someone would suddenly break in.

Did you see me ironing clothes for untouchables?

So beautiful to him!

So she gave up the idea and put the clothes back.

After waiting for a while, the husband-in-law hadn't finished washing yet, and saw Zhu Tao carrying water to the back room one basin at a time, and turning up the stove, presumably to boil water.

Tang Mei returned to her seat and saw the package again. The package was obviously a little dirty. She asked Tang Wan to get a piece of satin package and replace the blue cloth package. Then Tang Wan took the blue cloth package to clean it.

Tang Mei took out another five taels of silver from the drawer and stuffed it into the package, increasing the "reward" to ten taels.

I sat there and continued to wait. From time to time I picked up the draft of Su Ping's calculation that day and looked at it, but I couldn't understand it.

After an unknown amount of time, she heard the voice of her husband-in-law. Tang Mei stood up, looked out the back window, and shouted, "Come here quickly!"

Su Pingyuan said in a loud voice: "Don't worry, I'm going to start taking a bath soon."

"What did you say?! You haven't started for a long time?!"

Miss Six was absolutely furious.



A young boy in Tsing Yi walked out of Miss Seven's house.

He didn't say hello to anyone and left quickly. He planned to go to the west side of Qinghua Fang, where there was a small market. Although the market was small, it had a complete range of goods. All the products there were produced by Qinghua Fang. And there

Food, vegetables and other foreign products are also grown on the land outside the city by the Tang family.

Of course, this boy was the prince in disguise. Very few people knew the prince, and he came out boldly because he wanted to buy a gift for the seventh lady, Tang Zhao.

Because the seventh lady was offended by the prince, the prince arranged for a substitute to live in the small attic, which made the seventh lady feel a huge insult.

Miss Seven is a very traditional and conservative person. Men are not allowed in her boudoir. The reason why the prince is allowed in is because the current situation forces it and they are engaged.

At first Miss Seven thought the substitute was a eunuch with a glued-on beard, but later she found out that he was not a eunuch. Miss Seven was so angry that she refused to eat or drink, and the prince became anxious.

As soon as Prince Zhao Tian ran out of the gate, he heard Tang Mei's shouting from the yard in front. Hearing Tang Mei's voice, the prince had a headache. If it weren't for Tang Mei's bad temper, he wouldn't have had to change the marriage.

Fortunately! The marriage was finally changed.

My life is pretty good.

I heard that the Sixth Miss had adopted a son-in-law, and I don’t know which unlucky guy became his son-in-law. If the prince ascends the throne in the future, he may be able to compensate him in some way. It can also be regarded as some compensation to Tang Mei. After all, the prince regrets the marriage, and to Tang Mei

The impact was not small, and the prince felt a little unbearable.



No matter how anxious Tang Mei was, the son-in-law was not in a hurry. The maid Tang Ting came to urge her three times in a row, but it did not change the son-in-law's slow pace. After about half an hour, the son-in-law changed his clothes and dusted off the powder.

Then I walked to Qinxiang Xiaozhu.

At this time, Chen Mei was so angry that she remained silent.

She sat on the couch, her fingers were cold and even a little trembling. She swallowed from time to time and her eyes were straight.

Those two crystal clear eyes look even bigger, and their gazes are like staring.

Looking at the package again, it was replaced with coarse cloth and wrapped in leather, and the silver ingot she had just stuffed into it was also taken out by her.

Seeing her husband go upstairs, she gritted her teeth, tried her best to restrain herself, and waved her hand politely, signaling her husband to take a seat.

The son-in-law put on his wooden clogs, walked to the table, shook his sleeves, sat down slowly, and straightened his still wet hair.

Watching his slow motion, Tang Mei closed her eyes. She did not directly discuss the account book with her son-in-law, but said: "Sister-in-law, you should change your surname. Only after you change your surname can I take you to apply for household registration.

"

What kind of medicine does she sell in her gourd?

Su Ping raised his eyebrows: "I don't think that is necessary at all. I heard that the princess is relying on strong medicine to survive at this time, and I'm afraid she won't live long. When we are separated, why change our surname?"

Tang Mei snorted coldly: "Even if we are separated, if you obtain my Qinghuafang household registration and have the surname Tang, it will bring you a lot of convenience when walking around Luoyang City. And I can tell you that if you behave well

If you show your performance, maybe I can let you take a position in Okura. Give me a hand."

Su Ping smiled bitterly and said nothing.

Looking at his expression, it was as if he had refused. In Tang Mei's eyes, his expression could be described as "scornful".

The untouchable son-in-law was not interested in her family's noble "Tang" surname. Miss Six narrowed her eyes.

From Su Ping's point of view, Miss Six was negotiating with him so that her husband-in-law could still work for her after he was divorced. The benefits she gave him were a boon-like reward in Tang Mei's point of view, but in Su Ping's point of view,

It was just a small gain. It was even insulting, so I refused decisively.

Miss Six has a lot of airs, but she is only an eighteen-year-old girl after all. No matter how scheming she is, Zhao is still a little worse than Mr. Su.

The two of them sat together to negotiate. Miss Six would not be able to retain Su Ping unless she showed some sincerity. Moreover, her sincerity should involve the entire Su family, not Su Ping himself.

Obviously Miss Six is ​​not a stupid person. The only thing she lacks now is social training. She has no advisers around her, so she has to think on her own. She also guessed what Su Ping was most concerned about. So she made new conditions.

"When father comes back, let him fight for a hereditary inheritance for the Su family. However, this little lord can only be hereditary for two lifetimes at most. Don't think too much."

Su Ping sat there with a cold face, unmoved.

Tang Mei narrowed her eyes and gritted her teeth: "What other conditions do you have?"

Su Ping said slowly: "With Duke An Guo's status in the court, can we only get a lord for my Su family?"

"Speak directly if you have something to say."

"Viscount. Hereditary for the third generation."

"Don't go too far! In the 100 years of the Liang Dynasty, there has never been a viscount who donated it! Do you want the Liang Dynasty to modify the "Daliang Rites" for your family?"

"Then it's good to be a baron. But the salary must be equal to that of a viscount. And he must have the power to collect taxes independently. And he must have an official position. It doesn't need to be a high position. It's enough to be on an equal footing with Fang Cheng. He can be promoted to court to hear cases.

."

"Are you done yet?"

"It's not over. In addition, you have to find something for me to do. I can't always stay in the warehouse to help you. I want to go out to Qinghuafang, I want to become an official, and I want to be an official. And not yet

The official sitting in the study, I want to..."

"Forget it, go away. Go away! Go away!"

It is impossible to negotiate with Mr. Su without risking some blood. If Tang Mei doesn't get angry and interrupt Su Ping, Su Ping can still come up with a lot of conditions until she gets angry.

Su Ping was very confident in driving her to the point of going crazy. And if she went crazy, it might not be her bottom line, because she had such a quick temper.

When facing a person with a short temper, you have to fight hard with her. The more anxious she is, the easier it is to give up greater interests.

The husband-in-law left, walked slowly, and took his little maid out of the house, saying he was going to buy a pair of shoes.

Zhu Tao thought Su Ping had broken her promise and pouted to help Su Ping wash her clothes. When she heard that she really wanted to buy shoes, the little maid felt ashamed again and felt sorry. She also advised Su Ping not to buy them for the time being.

The shoes were mended and still wearable. But her words did not affect Su Ping at all. They had already arrived at Jixiang Street.

When the lanterns are turned on, the small streets are still lively.

At noon, Su Ping still had more than thirty money in his pocket, but in the evening, there was only twenty money left. Because when he was selling calligraphy in Bei City in the afternoon, he found Zhu Tao staring at the candied haws. Su Ping's money was

It was enough to buy two bunches of candied haws, but after buying the candied haws, I had no money to buy shoes. So I bought a pack of icing sugar and gave it to Zhu Tao.

It is worth mentioning that in terms of time, it is now equivalent to the Northern Song Dynasty. Things such as candied haws, thunder, and fire guns that were available in the Northern Song Dynasty were also available in the Liang Dynasty, but they were more expensive.

In short, everything on the Qingming Festival Along the River is here. People shaving their heads, delivering food, pushing carts, etc. Some people say that the skin of the body is affected by parents and should not be touched! Delivering food only came later!

In fact, those are the words of people who lack understanding of history. During the Northern and Southern Dynasties, shaving was already very popular. The founders of pedicures and manicures have already appeared. And food delivery is not a new thing at all, it has been around for a long time. As for

Why does it give people a "fresh" feeling? Maybe it's because there has been a break in sex for a while.

Moreover, on the streets of Liang Dynasty, we saw many things that were not seen in later generations, such as women's sumo wrestling. Their bold outfits were simply shocking. Two fat women fought fiercely, revealing this and that.

Onlookers grinned, whistled, howled, and booed loudly.

But you can't see these in Jixiang Street, because this is a small market within the Tang family. Moreover, the service attitude of the salespersons under the planned economy is quite bad. Some doors even say "This store will never beat customers."

slogan.

But at this time, Su Ping watched a boy in Tsing Yi being beaten out of the jewelry store.
