    "Wanyu was about to speak when she saw Cai Xian coming over, so she said to Zixuan, "I'll go first, and then I'll talk to you after lunch." As she said this, she followed Cai Xian to Mrs. Wu's room.  I saw Mrs. Wu leaning on the gilded mahogany Arhat bed carved with hundreds of sons to celebrate their birthdays. The wives and old mothers in charge of the house had already arrived. Some of them were standing in the house, while the others were standing on both sides of the door with their hands down, obeying the instructions.  Mrs. Wu went through all the household affairs in detail, and ordered the account books to be brought in for detailed inspection. She dispersed at noon, gave Wanyu some instructions, and finally said: "Your sister-in-law is sick and can't work hard.  You should be more tolerant, and the whole house will be under strict control, as well as the villagers, shops, and woods outside. They will be asked to come over and hammer it in person. There must be no excuses for anyone to take advantage of it at this time." Wan  Jade nodded in agreement.

    Mrs. Wu let out a long sigh and leaned on the pillow, her face was sallow and her expression was gloomy.  Wanyu knew that her mother had stayed up all night and had been worried and busy all morning. Now she was exhausted and frail, and she was already showing signs of being overwhelmed. She hurriedly said: "Mother, please lie down quickly. I will ask the kitchen to make some nourishing things."  Come, I will take care of the family affairs, and you don¡¯t have to worry about other things, mother."

    Mrs. Wu sighed again and let Wanyu lie down on the Luohan bed. Suddenly she remembered something and grabbed Wanyu's wrist and said: "Brother Da, it's time to pack up and go to Beijing"

    Wanyu patted Mrs. Wu's hand and said, "I know, don't worry, mother." After saying that, she personally brought a silk quilt to cover Mrs. Wu and stepped out gently.  When he went to the outside, he said to Wen Xing: "Smell the room with my daughter's fragrance to calm the spirit, and hang up the bamboo curtains. When Mrs. Zi is still not feeling well, she will call the doctor." Then she said to the little girl Ling'er next to her: "Mrs.  After staying up all night, I'm afraid I don't have much appetite, so go to the kitchen and ask them to make a bowl of Longjing bamboo fungus."

    Ling'er said: "Just now, the kitchen sent someone and said they have Guan Yan Chicken Shreds Soup and rare black rice porridge."

    Wanyu frowned and said, "The bird's nest and shredded chicken soup is a late night snack. The rest is served to Da Geer. He likes this. Let's bring a bowl of rare black rice porridge to my wife. Longjing  Bamboo fungus asked them to stew it carefully, add two pieces of ginseng into it, and cook it until the heat is full." Ling'er responded.  Wanyu finished her instructions and took her maid back to Qiying Pavilion, not to mention it for now.

    But it was said that Yang Shengzhi said goodbye to his father after seeing Wanyu and went home. Along the way, he told Yang Zheng the whole story. Yang Zheng frowned, took two puffs of his dry cigarette, looked at the sky, clicked his tongue, and turned his head to look sideways.  Asked Yang Sheng: "What do you think about this?"

    Yang Shengzhi had already thought about his words in his mind, and carefully said every word: "There is a saying that 'it is easy to find the icing on the cake, but it is rare to provide help when it is time'. If something happens to the Mei family, we must do our best to help. Previously, because of the eldest brother's matter, we and  The Mei family is at odds, and this is the opportunity to remedy the situation. Kuang Simu¡¯s family has always advanced and retreated together. If the Mei family loses power, we will also lose our support in Jinling"

    Before Yang Shengzhi finished speaking, Yang Zheng waved his hand and said: "This is natural. I know it without you telling me, but I don't know how to help Do you think we have to dig out money to make up for the shortfall?"

    Yang Shengzhi raised his right eyebrow and said: "That's not necessary. If we take out all this money at once, it will attract jealousy. In my opinion, it is better to use the name of being loyal to the country and we take the lead in giving out one hundred thousand taels.  Let the big families in Jinling City pledge their donations."

    Yang Zheng sneered and said, "Do you think it's that easy? How many households in the city can obediently hand over money?"

    Yang Shengzhi said with a smile: "You won't be afraid if you make the matter bigger and reach the ears of heaven. While a few adults in the capital haven't left yet, they took care of the matter in a hurry and asked the imperial envoys to come to the emperor. The people in the city  Several people who are related to the royal family, or have the name of royal merchants, will have to grit their teeth and donate if they don't want to donate."

    Yang Zheng was shocked, and looked at Yang Shengzhi, who said: "If this matter is done well, it will not only save the Mei family and reconcile the friendship between the two families, but it will also share your worries and relieve the Holy One's urgent need.  My father also understands the benefits. Besides, I have just entered the Hanlin Academy, and this matter is also a great benefit for me to become an official. It is worth spending some money to kill two birds with one stone."

    Yang Zheng was stunned for a long time, then suddenly smiled and said: "You are really good at calculating. Even I, as an old man, are not as good as you."

    Yang Shengzhi smiled and said: "A tiger father has no dog son, I just took advantage of my father." The father and son rode home slowly while talking.

    One day later, the Yang family took the title of "Gong Zhong Ti Guo" and donated one hundred thousand taels of silver.  Yang Shengzhi submitted a request for leave to the Hanlin Academy and took the lead in lobbying big investors to pledge donations.  After Mei Haiquan heard about this, he invited Yang Zheng and Yang Shengzhi to the mansion to talk about it. After sending the father and son away, Mei Haiquan immediately took a sedan chair to the imperial envoy Zhao Mingqian.  Zhao Mingqian immediately wrote a memorial and ordered the Eight Hundred Miles Quick Riding Company toI'm not picky in general, and I don't worry about being rejected. I never feel tired despite being exposed to wind and sun. I'm actually very resilient and willing to work hard.  "

    Mei Haiquan sighed and said: "Yang Shengzhi is a talented person. He is eager to learn, has a strong sense of strategy, and has a profound mind. He was originally an inconspicuous concubine of the Yang family. Even if he won two Jinshi rankings in the future, I have never done more.  However, when the donation came out, people were impressed. I also thought that if he was not from the Yang family, even if his family background was lower, I would be willing to recruit him as my son-in-law. Everyone in the Yang family  I'm really upset. It's full of chaos from top to bottom. I almost lost my life last time. What will happen if I harm my daughter again!"

    Mei Shuyuan frowned and said, "But my sister has already made up her mind. Mrs. Zhang said that the last time she went to chat with her sister and asked her what she meant, she seemed to have changed her mind. She said it herself, if this person  When she came to propose marriage, she begged her parents to agree that if she wanted to marry in this life, she would only marry him. She would not give up unless he hired a girl from another family."

    Mei Haiquan was startled again, thought for a while, waved his hand and said: "Yang Shengzhi has now gone to Beijing to face the emperor. He has been in the limelight and won the emperor's favor. I don't know how many court officials have come to Beijing this time.  When an official wants to make friends and get married, he may not necessarily be thinking about your sister. Let¡¯s wait until he has really made up his mind and comes to propose marriage.¡± After hearing this, Mei Shuyuan stopped mentioning it and chatted with Mei Haiquan for a few more words before retreating.  out.

    However, it was said that the Yang family had shown their face for pledging donations. A few days later, the imperial court issued an edict to commend the emperor. He also ordered that the palace purchase rouge and gouache and other internal affairs should be allocated to the Yang family in the future. Yang Zheng was overjoyed, thinking of having such a holy family member.  It was Yang Shengzhi's plan. He hurriedly packed two large boxes of silk and satin, and another five thousand taels of silver, and ordered them to be sent to the capital for Yang Shengzhi's daily use.  After Yang Shengzhi met the Holy Spirit, he entered the Hanlin Academy to study.

    On this day, Wanyu was teaching Brother Zhen to recite poems in the room, when she saw four maids walking in with Zixuan on their arms. Wanyu quickly stepped forward and said, "Just have a good rest in the room. I'll go when I have some free time."  I¡¯m going to see you, it¡¯s not a joke if I fall and bump into you.¡±

    Zixuan smiled and said, "I got a big piece of news today. I couldn't sit still. I just asked the maid to invite you, but you said you wanted to teach Brother Zhen to endorse. I couldn't wait and came over."

    Wanyu grabbed a handful of pine nut candies and gave them to Brother Zhen. She ordered Caixian to take him out to play. She then pulled Zixuan to sit on the beauty's couch and asked, "You are a quick Jingfeng, but my eldest brother is a slow man. I don't know."  How do you two discuss and talk on weekdays? What's the big news? Let me hear it."

    Zixuan lowered her voice and said: "Just now my sister sent someone to deliver something, and the maid told me that something happened to Yanyu again. She was in trouble because of her health. Is Yang Haozhi a good person? He secretly told Mrs. Yang  Chunqin, the eldest maid next to her, was fooling around, and Yanyu found out about it. You also know Yanyu's temper. She went to catch the rapist in an aggressive manner, but somehow she fell down and had a stomachache. When the doctor came, she had already seen Xiao Hong.  It¡¯s been months.¡±

    Wanyu was taken aback and said, "Xiaoyue? Then, what do the Liu family say?"

    Zixuan said: "Of course the Sun family refused to comply and came to the house crying. Yang Haozhi had to apologize to Yanyu in front of the elders. It was the girl from Qin. The Sun family wanted to drag her out and sell her. The Yang family said that it was okay  After serving for a while, I was sent out. I heard that she married into a small family."

    Wanyu sneered: "What kind of thing is Yang Haozhi? Only now did Sun realize that he regretted it."

    Zixuan sighed: "I don't know, I just pity Yanyu She has a more arrogant temper, but her heart is not bad after all."

    Wanyu couldn't tell what she was feeling in her heart for a moment. She exchanged words with Zixuan before the two of them dispersed.

    This chapter transitions.  .  .  There always needs to be a transition chapter to connect the previous and the next haha

    To digress, I am very touched to see that many readers are still willing to wait. Special thanks to Green Tea, Gaga, Mei and a series of familiar vests (too many to remember), and thank you x.

    I am really slow in updating. For example, this chapter, I spent the whole Saturday and Sunday on this chapter. Because of this kind of transition, chapters without plot conflicts are particularly difficult to write, and there is no passion in writing, so the progress is very slow.  My head hurts even as I write.

    This article will definitely not be a scam, but the update speed cannot be compared with other articles. Please bear with me.
