Mrs. Xie Chen stood up, looked at herself up and down, and after seeing that nothing was wrong, she approached the bed.
"The young master is so handsome. Miss Yan said his name is Nian'an?"
When Yan Shiqing saw her son, her heart softened. She stared at Nian An with loving eyes, nodded slowly, and said softly: "Yes!"
"Although this child has just been born, the heaven is full and the earth is round. At first glance, it is a precious life."
Yan Shiqing blinked when she heard this and asked doubtfully: "Sister-in-law can tell fortunes?"
"Hey, I don't know how to read fortunes. It's just what those fortune tellers often tell people: they know where the heaven is and where the earth is."
As Xie Chen spoke, she was too worried to reach out and point at the child, so she said softly: "Miss Yan, see for yourself, Xiao Nian'an's forehead and chin, aren't they just like those fortune tellers said?
"
The little kid on the side also squeezed over.
After hearing what Xie Chen said, she looked around at Xiao Nian'an and said, "Even if we don't face him like this, our young master still values his life."
Mrs. Xie Chen was shocked when she heard this, but she didn't say anything. She just straightened up, looked outside with some worry, and said: "The girl is still in confinement, so I don't want to disturb her, so I will go back another day."
I'm coming over when I have time."
Yan Shiqing saw that the sky outside was getting dark again, so she nodded and said, "Sister-in-law, I'll ask Xiaowa and Uncle Zhong to take you back. After you go back, ask Xiaoyang and Xiaoxi to review what I taught you more, and then come back
I want to test them."
Mrs. Xie Chen wanted to refuse, but when she thought of the rain coming all the way, she gave up.
When I came just now, it wasn't raining heavily, so I almost couldn't get through. If it rained harder, I might not even be able to go back.
The little boy pouted, thinking that it would be enough if Uncle Zhong gave it to him, so why do we need her?
But it soon became clear that Xie Chen was a widow after all, and she was less than thirty.
Although Uncle Zhong is a bit older, he is still a foreigner, so it is better to avoid taboos.
After Xiaowa and Xie Chen left, Yan Shiqing looked at Chu Ximo and said, "Ah Mo, was it you who suggested Qi Lie's move?"
"No, they have had this idea for a long time. I just told them how to get an advantage. But now it seems that Xie Chen's words are a bit too much."
The emperor's heart is always unpredictable. If Qi Liede's people's heart is higher than that of Emperor Dexuan, he will inevitably have some scruples.
If he wants to help Qi Lie gain a firm foothold, he should explain these things clearly to him.
Thinking of this, Chu Ximo stood up and said to Yan Shiqing: "Qingqing, I'll go to the General's Mansion and come back later."
Yan Shiqing saw what he was saying and left without worrying.
She knew that when he came out, he would always have a secret guard by his side. The capital was currently in serious disaster and everyone had too much time to take care of themselves. How could he have so much free time to think about what was there and what was not?
It was already three days later when people from Lianfu came to the door.
During this period, Yan Shiqing heard from Xiaowa that the Lianfu donated 200,000 yuan, which made the Emperor very happy. His current position as the No. 1 Imperial Merchant was saved, but it was a bit embarrassing and he had to be named the House of Benevolence.
Number.
The number one charity home was acquired by the Wu family, the second richest man in Beijing.
The Wu family's donation was not much higher than that of the Lian family, only a thousand taels more.
This time Mrs. Lian didn't come, but Wei Shi and Aunt Lian came.
It had been raining for many days at this time, and it had a tendency to stop and turn into a drizzle.
But maybe it’s been raining for a long time and the weather is a little cooler.
When Webster arrived, he saw the complicated look in Yan Shi's eyes. He immediately smiled and said with joy, "I heard Miss Yan gave birth to a son. Where is it? Come take it out and let me take a look!"
Yan Shiqing knew her temperament, and when he saw her like this, he picked up Nian'an, who had opened her eyes and was not yet asleep, and said, "Shiqing, thank you very much, Mrs. Lian, for taking time out of her busy schedule to come!"
Webster said angrily: "Look at you, girl, you talk strangely. With the relationship between our two governments, do you still need to say these polite words? On the day of the child's third bath, the family was busy and could not come over in time.
Don't worry about it."
As she said this, she quickly took out a longevity lock and placed it on Nian An's swaddling clothes: "My mother had prepared this before. Originally, she wanted to come in person, but the family was busy with things and couldn't live without people. As long as I let me
Brought here."
Yan Shiqing glanced at the small longevity lock, which had the four characters "life hundred" written on it. One left and one right were symmetrical, and she felt a little moved.
Before Yan Shiqing could say anything, Webster took out another pair of small gold bracelets and said, "This is what I gave to my child. Together with the mother's, it makes exactly the same set."
When Yan Shiqing saw these things, she believed that they had really worked hard.
As far as she knew, there were no babies in Lianfu yet, and these things looked new at first glance. It seemed that they had been made some time ago or just in the past few days.
No matter what, she received Lian Fu's heartfelt wishes.
"Mrs. Lian is too polite. By the way, ma'am, I heard from Xiaowa that your mansion has received a plaque. I haven't even had time to congratulate you yet."
When Wei Shi heard this, he sighed and said: "To be honest, although the plaque was taken, no one in the court blamed it, and it looked good. But it is not the charity home that ranked first. It is more or less worthy of those people.
The merchants who deal with Lianfu are murmuring in their hearts. Because of this incident, Lianfu has been depleted. Alas..."
When she said this, she sighed and said with hope in her eyes: "I think Miss Yan also knows the situation of our Lian Mansion now. This capital, including several nearby places, has been hit by disasters. Our Lian Mansion has suffered serious losses. I'm afraid
It took a few years to get better. A few days ago, my mother asked me to refuse the cooperation with the Jiangdong family on the pearl facial mask, but I never thought that my mother secretly asked people to buy it everywhere. I'm really sorry, I really didn't know this
It’s just that, as the eldest daughter-in-law of Lian Mansion, and now that my family is like this, I wonder if the girl is still doing that business. If so, can you bring me to Lian Mansion? "
Yan Shiqing listened to what she said, went around and around, and finally came up with one sentence. Lian Fu's current situation is not very good. If he has to hold up the mask alone, he may not be able to fight with her all the time. Instead of doing this, it is better for the two of them to cooperate.
Everyone wants to make money together.
"Madam Lian, I'm afraid that Poetry can't make the decision on this matter. The current situation is like this, even if it is done, it won't be possible for a while. Otherwise, I will give you an answer after I discuss it with my brother? No matter whether it is successful or not.
, we will tell you how?" xdw8
Seeing this, Wei Shi nodded helplessly. The situation was compelling. If it weren't for this, why would she, the wife of a powerful family boss, come to the door and say these words that were similar to begging?
She understood that the situation of the Lian Mansion could not be spread to outsiders, and there was currently no funds to do this business. It would be better to choose Yan Shiqing and Jiang Hongxuan to cooperate with other people in the capital.
Although the details of this family member turned out to be innocent, I still found it strange that they didn't say anything. They said they had no money, but they were able to come up with five hundred taels of gold at once. Even the land deed was replaced without her having to come forward. She went directly to the Yamen on the same day.
Passed over there.
Based on these points alone, she would have to take a gamble. Whether it succeeds or not remains to be seen!
