Chapter 94(1/2)
Wang entered the second door and learned that the second sister-in-law Ming was in his second brother's study, so he went straight to find the second sister-in-law.
At this time, Wang Jia, the second master of the Wang family, was in Baihe Academy, and his second grandmother Ming was sitting in Wang Jia's study to check the detailed account of the academy for the first half of the year.
Seeing Wang Ying lifting the curtain in, the second grandmother Ming exclaimed in surprise, "Why are you back now? Didn't you say you should go for a while longer, at least come back after lunch? What happened?"
Grandma Ming said as she stood up to meet her and looked at Wang Jing's face carefully.
"Aran fell in love with a white jade tiger, with some blue and black jade skin, which looked very much like General Xie's tiger." Wang Shi looked at Grandma Ming's second grandma and said that jade tiger.
"Oh!" Grandma Ming was stunned for a moment, and she said oh, "Wang took a step forward and grabbed her, "Second sister-in-law knows? What do you know about the second sister-in-law? When did the second sister-in-law know? Is it true? Isn't I overthinking?"
"Shh!"
The second grandma Ming shrewd Wang Yan, rushed to the door of the study room a few steps, raised the curtain and looked around, retreated, looked at Wang Yan, but before he could say anything, he started to laugh first.
"This matter has been issued strict orders from the grandmother to the grandmother, and no one is allowed to mention it.
For nothing else, I'm afraid I'll say it out loud.
Look at the jade tiger you said..."
Grandma Ming dragged the long voice and sat down while smiling.
"Look first, and turn around and tell your second brother, it would be great if you could see this jade tiger somewhere!"
"The second brother knows it too? How do you know it? Everyone in the family knows it, just hide it from me?" Wang Yin couldn't explain anything.
"How can the whole family know? Your second brother, grandma, grandma, no one else." Grandma Ming kept laughing.
"What about my father? What about Weng Weng? Don't you know? There is also the third brother."
"Does my father and Weng Weng know? How can I know? Your third brother definitely doesn't know, and your third sister-in-law don't know. Look, you must be hiding it from you alone."
While laughing, Grandma Ming poured a cup of tea and handed it to Wang.
"I didn't expect it at all! I didn't expect it! I never dared to think about it!" Wang took the tea and lamented.
"Who could have thought? Your second brother was so excited that he didn't fall asleep all night. Hey, don't talk about this anymore, so don't say it out loud.
You are back, where is the fourth lady? Are you back too?
It is said that General Zhou took over official duties and it will take a month to come back..."
Grandma Ming's words suddenly stopped and she was stunned.
"What's wrong? General Zhou? Second sister-in-law, what's wrong? Don't hide it from me!" Wang Yin asked anxiously with his upper body straight.
"Nothing is nothing!" Grandma Ming said very quickly, and her hands were swaying faster.
"How do you know that General Zhou took over official duties? It will take one month?" Wang Shi reacted very quickly.
"We can't mention this after talking about it, so we won't talk about it anymore."
Grandma Ming waved her hands happily, and for a moment, sighed.
This matter is, before the person involved makes it clear, he can't even say it, but when it's really clear, that person is very serious. How urgent is this matter? This dowry and something... is quite worrying!
"What is the second sister-in-law thinking?" Wang pushed the second grandmother Ming, who was so ecstatic about her thoughts.
"It's nothing. We don't know anything about this.
From now on, when you go to pick up the dowry, you will call the Fourth Lady and ask her to help you see. I see the Fourth Lady's vision, it is very good." Grandma Ming smiled.
“可不是眼光好.”
Wang Yin didn't finish a word, remembering the third young master who asked the girl to see how beautiful he looked that day, he laughed loudly and fell on the couch with a smile.
"Huh? Why are you laughing? What are you laughing like this? What are you laughing at? Tell me!"
Grandma Ming glared at Wang Jing and asked repeatedly while pulling her.
王舲笑的说不出话,只不停的摆手.
Why did she laugh? She couldn't tell others no matter what, and her second sister-in-law couldn't do it either!
………………………………………
The next day, after lunch, Taonong asked someone to hand in a message.
It was said that Mrs. Wu was attracted by a place near Fengqiu Gate.
Before leaving, General Zhou told him that during the period when she was not in the capital, Mrs. Wu was handed over to Li Ran for the matter.
Sister Wu asked Tao Nong to hand over and ask Li Ran to take a look. Otherwise, Sister Wu would not dare to make any decisions about buying a shop.
Li Ran hesitated for a moment and asked someone to reply, she would go and see it tomorrow.
Today, I don’t know when Xie Ze will send someone over. Secondly, it’s best to tell Xie Ze about this shop that Mrs. Wu chose, and then go and see it. Is Zhou E now his subordinate?
She dares not be too self-centered about Zhou E now, but who knows how many things she doesn't know?
Li Ran held the book and was absent-minded. She waited until the dusk was deep outside and the message came in, saying that someone was looking for General Zhou and asked the girl to go out.
Li Ran understood as soon as she heard this, and she walked out of the second gate very quickly. It was indeed Shinan's servant waiting outside the side gate.
“远吗?”李苒先出门问小厮.
"It's not far away, just in Qingfeng Tower, the girl should take a bus and bento." The servant replied hurriedly.
Li Ran retreated back to the second gate and asked the old lady from the second gate to pass on the message. In a moment, the coachman drove the car and stopped in the second gate.
李苒上了车,吩咐去清风楼.
Xie Ze was still in the private room last time. When Li Ran entered the room, Xie Ze was sitting in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. When he saw Li Ran coming in, he didn't stand up, but raised his hand to signal her to sit over.
"Have you eaten?" Xie Ze looked at Li Ran and asked first.
李苒看着面前的茶桌,低低嗯了一声.
It was already very late, he should have eaten, and she should have eaten too.
"The Chang'an Hou will lead his troops south after the New Year. He has already set out to train troops a few days ago. The defense of the capital and the capital camp have all moved to me. In addition, we have also coordinated and dispatched the logistics and supplies of the two departments of Huo Shuai and Chang'an Hou, and also called me."
谢泽倒了杯茶推给李苒,缓声道.
Li Ran bowed slightly and looked at the tiredness on Xie Ze's face carefully.
“Are you very tired?”
"Yeah, that's fine."
"It's a pity that I can't help you." Li Ran was silent for a moment and sighed.
Xie Ze, who was siping tea, was stunned for a moment, put down the cup, smiled slightly, and felt a little helpless, "Do you still want to help me? This is not something you can help, it's enough to have this heart."
李苒看着谢泽,没说话,只叹了口气.
If she had been able to help, now, here she can do nothing.
"You take good care of yourself, don't worry me, just help me."
Listening to Li Ran's sigh, Xie Ze's smile became deeper and more helpless. He then sighed and looked at Li Ran and said warmly.
“我一直都很好.”
Li Ran's words paused and continued a little vaguely: "In the future, when you have time, I will... anyway, I will have nothing to do, I will not have anything to do."
"Although Zhou E is not in the capital." Xie Ze looked at Li Ran and said after a while: "If you want to see, just go and listen. If I am free, I will accompany you."
“好!”李苒露出笑容.
Xie Ze looked at her with a smile and sighed, "I rarely have time, but as long as I have time..."
“我知道,我懂.”李苒忙点头.
She knew what level of busyness he meant in the few words he said just now, and she really understood.
"Well, this is for you." Li Ran reached out and sent the white jade tiger to Xie Ze. "It looks a bit like a tiger general."
"Yes." Xie Ze picked up the jade tiger, held it in his hand, looked carefully for a while, and held it up.
"One more thing,"
李苒想起吴嫂子看中铺子的事儿.
"Zhou E bought Sister Wu and her daughter, and gave her money to find a place to open a small restaurant. Today, Sister Wu sent a message saying that she had a fancy to a shop inside Fengqiu Gate. There was nothing inappropriate over there, right?"
Xie Ze listened intently, faced Li Ran's gaze, and said with a smile: "Nearby Fengqiu Gate, it is Banzhi Military Camp. He is attracted by the storefront in that area, and probably first he is attracted by Banzhi Military Camp.
Those people in the military camp knew that it was Zhou E's capital and always wanted to support her, so the business would not be bad.
那个吴嫂子,”
Xie Ze paused, his voice was much softer and softer.
"You have to learn to recognize people. If the place she likes is really close to Banzhi's military camp, it is more like Tao Nong's idea.
Tao Nong likes to take shortcuts and find convenience, but the shortcuts she takes are probably not worth the money.
You don’t have to wait for Zhou E to come back. Just make an idea for her. No matter what, it’s not a big deal. Zhou E can still afford to lose money in one or two shops."
"Well, I understand." Li Ran couldn't help but be surprised when she heard Xie Ze talk about Tao Nong.
"Tao Nong came out alive from Xingrong Pass." Xie Ze saw the surprise on Li Ran's face.
