Enter the Room

In the Song family's accounting room, Song Jiyun sat on the Taishi chair beside him with a smile, watching Manager Wu and the accounting room counting the banknotes: "Forty-one thousand taels, forty-one thousand taels, forty-one thousand two hundred taels... …”

Zheng Quan, who was sitting next to Song Jiyun, showed an incredulous expression and said, "Didn't you say it would be good if you could sell it for thirty-three thousand or four thousand taels? Why did you sell it for so much money?"

Before Song Jiuyun could speak, Manager Wu said excitedly: "Don't even look at who did it! Our eldest lady is really a child under the seat of Guanshiyin Bodhisattva, who can turn stones into gold."

Song Jiuyun was ashamed.

The boy under the seat of Guanshiyin Bodhisattva has nothing to do with turning stones into gold!

But Mr. Wu couldn't help but be happy.

He sighed to Zheng Quan: "It's a pity that you were not there and didn't see the faces of those people. Let's not talk about anything else. Let's talk about Li Zixiu. When we met our master in the past, he would look at people with squinting eyes and never say anything nice. . But when I met our eldest lady today, why didn’t I humbly beg our eldest lady to sell him those shops on Backdoor Street?

“Our eldest lady was not merciless at all and doubled the original price.

"He was not convinced and wanted to ask the eldest lady why it was so expensive to sell it to him. Our eldest lady simply told him directly that based on the friendship between our two families, she should not sell the shop to the Li family at all, but thinking about everyone's future It took a long time to deal with him, and he wanted to turn the feud with the Li family into friendship, so he was willing to sell those shops to him.

"He has caused so much trouble to our family in the past, so he must express his gratitude!

"The eldest lady also asked Li Zixiu if he would like to wipe out the grievances between the two families from now on?

"Li Zixiu's face is bright red, but if he doesn't agree in front of so many people, others will definitely think that he is petty, has no ambition, and is not a person who can do big things.

"What he promised is a grievance!"

Perhaps remembering the scene at that time, he couldn't help but laugh heartily a few times, and said: "And Mr. Nawen, for fear that others would know that he also wanted to buy a shop, he secretly asked Mr. Wang of Yanji for help.

"Mr. Wang is an honest man. He was afraid of getting into trouble with the eldest lady, so he quietly pulled the eldest lady aside and told her everything like he was pouring beans out of a bamboo tube.

"Our eldest lady is also a wonderful person. Let Mr. Wang tell Mr. Wen that he came late and Mr. Yan of the shop bought it. Let him give more money and find a way to buy it back from Mr. Yan. Mr. Wen I don’t know if I misunderstood or something happened, but I actually got an extra five hundred taels of silver in one breath.

"Master Wang wanted to give the extra money to the eldest lady, but the eldest lady didn't want it. He added two to five and divided it equally between Master Wang and Master Yan. He said that he borrowed Master Yan's name, and he couldn't let Master Yan suffer; Wang The master had worked hard and couldn't work in vain. As a result, Master Yan did not refuse and happily accepted the money, but the mountains and forests in Chaotianwu gave the eldest daughter an extra thousand taels.

"Mr. Wang didn't accept it at all.

"Can't you make so much money?"

After he finished speaking, he saw that the counting room's abacus also stopped, so he asked: "How is it? How much silver is the total?"

The accountant was also very excited and said with a red face: "The total is 49,650 taels."

In other words, Song Jiyun made almost 20,000 taels of silver by changing hands.

Zheng Quan was dumbfounded.

Song Jiyun is also very satisfied with the result.

She smiled and said, "This business is the icing on the cake because of everyone's help. Our family's life is flourishing and they will not offend us easily."

"We also follow the instructions of the eldest lady." Manager Wu said with admiration.

If he was worried about Song Jiyun before that she would not be able to support the family, now he wished that Song Jiyun would recruit a son-in-law to support the Song family.

The two of them spoke to each other and complimented each other.

Seeing how good the atmosphere was, Song Jiuyun simply raised his arms and said, "We will have a big dinner tonight. Invite the master from Baxian Temple to come to our house to make noodles. It's just the right time for He Dazhi and the others to take over."

They are big pilgrims in various Taoist temples, Zen monasteries, and nunneries in Liang County. They are very willing to deal with the Song family, let alone come to their door to make plain noodles.

Manager Wu said "yes" with a smile on his face, and happily went down to get ready.

By the time Yuan Yunzhong received the letter, it was already evening, and the maids and women had laid out the table at the waterside pavilion, waiting only for everyone to clear away the seats.

Yuan Yunzhong looked at the third-class maid in front of him and said, "She is very generous!"

Shao Qing wanted to go to the bustling waterside pavilion and said disapprovingly: "There are delicious food and fine wine, what else do you dislike?"

He was still afraid that Yuan Yunzhong wouldn't go, so he encouraged him: "Today is Miss Song's happy day - ordinary people can't make twenty thousand taels of silver in their lifetime, but she made such a huge sum of money as soon as she changed hands, why don't you let her Celebrate, celebrate!”

Yuan Yunzhong didn't say anything. Although he had a calm face, he went to Shuixie with Shao Qing.

There were cheers and laughter in the waterside pavilion. When they saw Yuan Yunzhong, everyone bowed respectfully, and Song Jiyun even came up to greet him personally.

Only then did Yuan Yunzhong's face light up and he sat down at the main table.

"Today is a family gathering. It's not too particular, so you can do whatever you want." Song Jiyun personally poured him a cup of honey grapefruit tea and handed it to him, saying, "This is my homemade fruit tea, do you like it if you try it?" "

Yuan Yunzhong looked better. He took a sip of fruit tea. Although he didn't like it very much, he still nodded slightly and proactively asked Song Jiyun, "Auntie isn't here yet?"

"Let me urge you." Song Jiyun smiled and moved the matcha chicken cake on the table to his hand, and said with a smile, "This fruit tea goes with this snack to relieve your tiredness."

Yuan Yunzhong tasted a piece.

Song Jiyu came over with Song Jixue.

Before Song Jiuxue could stand still, he groaned and complained to Song Jiyun: "Mother will come back after a while. My eldest aunt came over and said she had something important to discuss with her. Mother was afraid that you would be waiting impatiently, so I asked my second sister and me first come."

Song Jiyu blushed and saluted Yuan Yunzhong.

Yuan Yunzhong was quite generous. Not only did he accept Song Jiyu's gift, but he also gave Song Jiyu and Song Jixue several golden ingots as gifts for each of them.

But Song Jixue said loudly and innocently: "Thank you, brother-in-law!"

Song Jiyun blushed and hurriedly went to see Yuan Yunzhong.

Yuan Yunzhong, however, was as cold as the moon as ever, and he raised his head towards Song Jiuyun without any strange color at all.

Song Jiyun coughed slightly uncomfortably, and just as he was about to say a few words to divert the matter, a burst of laughter came from under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree next to the waterside pavilion.

Shao Qing didn't know when he got together with He Dazhi and others. The two sat on the stone table under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree and locked arms.

Some people stood with Shao Qing and some stood with He Dazhi, cheering and cheering for them.

Since Song Daliang's death, the family has not been so lively for a long time.

Song Jiyun couldn't help but smile, and threw away the little discomfort he just felt.

She stood by the railing of the waterside pavilion and loudly cheered for them: "I'll give you a prize of ten taels of silver!"

After hearing this, everyone cheered again, and the atmosphere instantly became more lively.

Song Jiyun laughed and applauded them.

Under the setting sun, her smile was brighter than the sunset.

Yuan Yunzhong was stunned.
