Chapter Fifty-Nine Only
The horse carriage slowly drove out of the Zhou's house, this time the coachman was no longer Zhou Liulang.
"Do you know the way?" asked the maid, lifting the curtain.
The coachman nodded repeatedly with fear.
"It's closer to go from Da Tong Street." The maid said, then looked at the driver with a "do you know the way or not" expression, "Your family's Liu Lang always takes the long way around."
Having said that, he put down the curtain and went in.
The cart driver quietly smiled.
From here to Yudai Bridge, it is indeed a big bucket street, and then through Baochuan Alley, the road is relatively quiet, with fewer vehicles and pedestrians.
This country bumpkin from Jiangzhou actually knows too?
It's just been a few days, and he's already familiar with the capital city more than this native Beijinger.
No wonder people say that this old lady's daughter is a lucky person who has met gods, and even the maid by her side is so formidable.
The coachman raised his whip and urged the horse on steadily.
The woman in the car looked slightly worried and glanced at Cheng Jiaoniang.
"Daughter, are we going back to the Zhou's house?" she asked.
"Of course I'll go back," said Jingniang, "they haven't driven me out yet."
The maid couldn't help but laugh and quickly covered her mouth.
"Daughter, I'll go take a look these next few days and see if Old Man Zhang has arrived in the capital yet." She said, thinking of something.
Jiang Nang glanced at her.
"No need, I haven't reached a dead end yet," she said.
The maid smiled.
"My dear, I didn't mean to look down on you, you're the most formidable one." She said with a smile.
"I know," said Jingniang, "I just don't like putting my hopes on others."
She looked at the maid and smiled slightly.
"Besides, everything is just as I wished," she said.
The maid nodded and replied in the affirmative.
Jiang's arrival brought a lively atmosphere to the Yu Dai Bridge residence.
"Sister, you haven't come for several days." Xu Bangzhu shouted.
Jiang Nang and the men who came out with Ying exchanged greetings, then stepped inside.
Xu Bangzhu personally went to lead the horse, but saw that the car driver was stunned and shocked.
"What are you looking at!" He glared and snatched the whip away. Hurrying the horse, they entered the gate.
The cart driver came back to his senses and hurriedly followed him in.
"Hey, what are you doing?" Xu Bangdun turned his head and shouted with wide eyes.
The cart driver was frightened and stopped.
"I, I, I..." He stuttered and didn't know what to say.
"Going and going, it's really not proper, can you come in here?" Xu Bangzhu said, raising his chin to size up the carman. Shaking his head, "You're really not as good as that previous carman. He understood the rules, never came in, just found a corner somewhere to wait, you should learn from him."
He led his horse in after saying that and left the carriage driver standing stupidly outside the gate.
What about the carriage driver from before? In the past, whenever the young mistress went out, it was always Sixth Master who personally sent her off.
Sixth Master, actually being treated as a coachman by these people? And never having entered the door before?
And who are these men? They actually enter the house as if they were the masters.
Others in the house went out to prepare a lively meal for their sister, leaving only Fan Jianglin, Xu Maosheng and Xu Bangzhu to accompany her.
Jiang Nang put down her teacup.
"So it's already been discounted to eight thousand yen?" she asked.
Xu Maoshou nodded.
"This kid is asking for too much," said Fan Jianglin, "After grinding for so many days, it's only dropped to this price."
He clicked his tongue.
"Eight thousand yuan!" he said, "I've never seen so much money in my life..."
"That's right, that kid still has an expression like we've taken advantage of him, saying how his wine shop is making a fortune, the location is so good, and he's earning so much." Xu Banggui said, also following with a tongue click, "He even said it'll take only a year to recover the investment, and he's earning faster than being a prime minister."
He said here is Xu Maoshu's place.
"Third Brother, can't even the Prime Minister make more than running a wine shop?" he asked.
Xu Maoshou hadn't spoken yet, but the maid kneeling behind Cheng Jiaoniang pursed her lips and smiled.
"The monthly salary of a government official is about 300 taels, and it would take two years to save up enough money to buy the wine shop," she said.
Everyone suddenly realized.
"When the prime minister is struggling like this? It's really pitiful." Xu Banggui nodded and said.
When prime ministers naturally will not just be for salary.
The maid smiled and didn't say anything.
Fan Jianglin and Xu Maoshu also ignored him, looking at Cheng Jiaoniang instead.
"This price is indeed not cheap, if it's not urgent, we can slowly grind with him," Xu Maosheng said.
Jiang Yao shook her head.
"It's nothing, just money," she said.
80,000 yen?
Is that all?
It doesn't matter.
Everyone in the house was staring at her, even the maid looked slightly surprised.
"Sister, you have more money than Prime Minister Xu." Xu Banggu said with a smile.
"No." Jingniang stood up and said, "Life is the most precious thing."
Life?
Three people stared at her, and the maid was momentarily stunned.
"Oh, I see," she said, slightly flustered.
It turns out, wife, everything I did was for this!
Zhou Lang picked up the wine jug and was about to pour it into his mouth.
Qin Langjun stretched out his hand and hit him with a cane, spilling wine all over Zhou Liulang's body.
"What are you doing? Are you going to fight again?" Zhou Liulang shouted with wide eyes.
Qin Lang was amused by his words.
"You said you wouldn't listen to me, why did you go and provoke her? What's the point of provoking her?" He smiled and said, "You can't beat her, you can't scold her, aren't you just asking for trouble?"
"It's her fault!" Zhou Lang shouted, "Where did this great hatred come from? Is it endless?"
"Maybe others are just telling the truth, what's your hurry?" Qin Langjun said.
Zhou Lang cursed.
"People who aren't destined to die won't be saved. Chen's family just needs to flatter her a few times and she'll really think she's an immortal?" He sneered, "She's making a scene out of spite, what good will it do for herself? A woman from a decent family acting so recklessly, how will she end up in the future?"
Qin Langjun was just lifting his teacup when he heard this and burst out laughing.
"With you as her brother, she'll be fine." He smiled.
"Qin thirteen!" Zhou Liulang shouted with a few points of anger and shame.
Qin Langjun smiled and raised his teacup.
"I'm not kidding anymore, I'm not kidding anymore." He said, concentrating for a moment, "Actually, I think it doesn't matter, whether it's pretending to be angry or confident, just ask and you'll know?"
Zhou Lang's face was gloomy and he didn't say a word.
"You know who I'm talking about, don't pretend to be stupid." Qin Langjun said, finishing his tea in one gulp.
"Come in." Shūroku shouted.
The little girl outside the door hurriedly opened the door and came in.
"Go and call Hanjin over." Zhou Liulang said.
The girl was taken aback for a moment.
"Lang Jun, which one, half celery?" she asked hesitantly.
Zhou Lang grasped the wine bowl tightly, making a "ka" sound.
"This woman, I think she does everything on purpose!" he said gritting his teeth.
She seems to remind others of her existence at any time and place, and it's not a pleasant one.
His gaze fell on the low table, where Qin Lang was pouring tea across from him.
Noticing Zhou Liang's gaze, Qin Lang immediately smiled.
"This tea is not good to drink, I'd rather have wine." He said with raised eyebrows.
Zhou Lang pulled his face and stared at him.
"It's called 'your family's Rokurō' sempi." Qin Langjun laughed and turned to the maid who was still waiting by the door.
The girl understood and quickly turned around and left.
