Chapter 328 328: Snow Night Persuasion 【Ask for a monthly ticket】
Wu Xian temporarily stabilized Xu Jie.
However, he knew that Xu Jie was not the biggest trouble.
He returned to the backyard full of melancholy. His side wife, Mi Shi, was Wu Xian's most beloved concubine in the past two years. After listening to the maid's announcement, she greeted her early with a gentle smile, serving the towel festival and serving thoughtfully. Relying on Wu Xian's love, Mi's occasionally dared to ask about the front yard: "Xian Lang encountered some troubles outside, why is he so depressed?"
"It's not a big deal, it's just..."
Wu Xian took the twisted cloth towel and wiped his face.
Mi turned around and took the moderately warm copper basin from the servant girl, squatted down and put it down. Wu Xian rubbed off his shoes and put his feet in warm water. She raised her hand to signal Mi to get up, these menial tasks were busy for the servants, and she, a concubine, did not have to do these dirty and tiring tasks.
Mrs. Mie pursed her lips and smiled coquettishly.
"Serving the virtuous man and showing off his face, how can it be considered a dirty and tiring job?" Mrs. Mie said so tenderly, but after listening to Wu Xian's words, she got up and sat beside him, and the conversation turned back, "The virtuous man You haven't said who made you unhappy."
Wu Xian didn't intend to hide it either.
After all, this is not an important matter.
He also wanted to learn from Mrs. Mi, how to coax a person well. When Mrs. Mi Chou heard the words, her blessed goose egg face stiffened for a moment, but she suppressed her sourness and asked cautiously, "The virtuous man's new favourite?"
Wu Xian: "...No, it's Gong Su."
Miss Mi: "..."
Don't look at her as a female family member in the backyard. Before becoming Wu Xian's concubine, she was only the lead dancer of the family's dance class. She is not well-educated, but she also knows the main core members of her husband's account. After all, if you offend these people, no matter how much love you give, it will be turned into smoke in an instant - Wu Xian's soft ears don't mean he can't understand.
This "Gongsu" should be Qin Li.
Madam Mi Cian can remember that when Wu Xian got Qin Li's help, this man happily jumped three feet high, which shows how important Qin Li is to him. In the blink of an eye, Mrs. Mi's heart turned a few times, and she already had an idea.
"How did the virtuous man offend Mr. Qin?"
Ms. Mi's ability to observe words and expressions is not weak.
With just a few words from Wu Xian, she knew that no matter what happened, Wu Xian would blame himself for the fault.
She couldn't speak ill of Qin Li without a wink.
Not only can't, but she has to speak from Qin Li's standpoint and criticize her husband well! Sure enough, Wu Xian was not angry.
Wu Xian said helplessly about today's episode.
Qin Li was squeezed out and left angrily.
Wu Xian stabilized Xu Jie, but he didn't know how to coax Qin Li.
Qin Li hit Xu Jie's taboo this time.
He has known Xu Jie for many years, so he knows him well. Usually he is silent, and likes "peace is the most important" in everything, but it really doesn't mean that Xu Jie has no edges and corners-not only does he have sharp edges, but he is also good at hiding knives in his smile. Gong Su can offend people ruthlessly this time.
Miss Mi: "..."
She inexplicably felt that the scene Wu Xian said was familiar.
Several wives and concubines in the backyard compete for favor, isn't it the same?
However, she didn't dare to say this.
Compared Wu Xian's confidantes under the tent to the backyard female relatives fighting for favor, if she dared to say this, Wu Xian and those under him would kill her. Mrs. Mi Fang smiled gently: "Think about it, Mr. Qin, who is Mr. Qin doing this for?"
Wu Xiandao: "Of course it's for me!"
Qin Li is afraid of praying for goodness, and also afraid of Shen Tang who is assisted by praying for goodness. Before the danger has matured, killing him in the cradle is the most reassuring way to deal with it. It's just that Wu Xianzhen didn't think it was serious enough, Qin Li was too impatient.
Mrs. Mi said: "Since it is for the sake of the virtuous man, Mr. Qin's piousness can't be exchanged for the virtuous man to come to apologize in person? The virtuous man is the master and he is the minister, but you are like-minded friends. What can you say directly?" Did you say it?"
Wu Xian was stunned for a moment.
The soles and insteps of the feet rubbing against each other in the copper basin stopped.
After a while, he hurriedly got up, regardless of the cold ground, stepped on it with wet feet, and walked out the door.
Ms. Mie hurriedly got up and followed.
Amusedly persuaded: "What is Xian Lang doing in such a hurry?"
"At least put on your clothes neatly before going!"
If Wu Xian went out from his own house and got sick from the cold, and Mrs. Zheng asked about it, it would be difficult for her to explain it here.
Wu Xian could only restrain his impatience.
dressed in a hurry, and left without looking back.
Mrs. Mie sent him to the gate of the courtyard until the figure of the man disappeared at the end of the small stone road. Walking out of her courtyard is a well-decorated garden, with rockery and flowing water, exquisite plants and flowers, and even the fish in the pond don't have to worry about food...
All are well-raised.
Mrs. Mi leaned on the door and watched for a long time.
"Ma'am, let's go back, be careful not to catch a cold."
After persuasion from the personal maid, she sighed and turned around.
Mouth mourning, beautiful eyes showing a little sadness: "Catch a cold? If I'm sick, would Xianlang be so nervous?"
The servant girl was puzzled.
Just habitual flattery.
"My wife is always favored, and the parents will be like this."
Mrs. Mie shook her head when she heard the words, frowned slightly, and said with worry on her brows: "You don't understand, he won't. Qin Gongsu can help the virtuous man achieve great things. He is angry, and the virtuous man is worried. Look at what is going on in the backyard?" Can a flower touch his heart so much?"
Maid: "Yes, it's different."
Ms. Mie asked her, "Why is it different?"
The servant girl said: "Mr. Qin is the arm of the parents, a person who can be used, but Mrs. is the favorite of the parents, the birth mother of Erlang."
How can these two identities be the same?
Mr. Qin can't replace Mrs.
The maid did not understand her brain circuit very much.
Ms. Mi Cian sighed again: "You will never understand."
In the final analysis, it is the same, whether it is subordinates or concubines, they are all the people Wu Xian needs, and the latter can be replaced by younger and more beautiful women at any time, but how many talents like Mr. Qin can replace him? What about people?
Easily abandoned when not needed.
Mrs. Mi Fang also really envied Qin Li.
Qin Li can make her husband bow his head sincerely, rushing to apologize and coax her, but what about her? I usually live my life cautiously in the backyard, relying on the love of my husband. Love is the key to whether she can continue to live in a comfortable nest away from poverty, hunger, and war, without the hardships of the rain and wind outside, and enjoy the glory and wealth.
Without Wu Xian, she would not know where she died now.
In all fairness, Wu Xian is a good person.
What is even more fortunate is that Mrs. Zheng is not mean and has never treated them badly. But is this the kindness and generosity of his wife? Not necessarily, people simply did not really pay attention to these side rooms, they are just a beautiful decoration that can be walked in the backyard.
Mrs. Mi Clan laughed at herself sadly.
Wu Xian obviously didn't know Mrs. Mi's thoughts.
Wearing a thick fox fur cloak, he braved the wind and snow and carried a lantern to knock on Qin Li's door. He saw the people in the wind and snow clearly by the light of the lantern, and asked in surprise: "My lord?"
Wu Xian silently greeted the bad weather.
"My lord, come in first."
Qin Li was angry and funny.
More or less guessed Wu Xian's intention.
Wu Xian took off his cloak, followed into Qin Li's house, raised his hand to wipe off the goose feather snow on the cloak, and rubbed his hands to keep warm: "Why doesn't Gongsu have a charcoal basin, and the house is so cold?"
said: "Using Wen Qi to protect the body can avoid severe cold."
Wu Xiandao: "Isn't this a waste of energy?"
It also consumes the mind.
When you are free, who would do this on purpose?
It’s not that the family is too poor to afford the charcoal fire.
Qin Li closed the fire folder and responded quietly.
"got used to."
Wu Xian heard the meaning of his words that he didn't want to talk deeply, so he stopped asking, changed the subject, and said solemnly: "I came to disturb Qin Qing in the middle of the night, but it was actually for the daytime business."
The essence of an apology is to go straight to the point, straight to the point. Beating around the bush and not getting to the point for a long time will only make people irritable.
Qin Li's face was covered with the words "So it is".
said: "My lord is here to serve as a lobbyist for Xu Wenzhu?"
Wu Xian waved his hand: "No, no."
He paused, got up from the mat, and bowed to Qin Li's shocked and puzzled eyes to apologize: "Actually, it's because of today's side effects...It's my fault...Please forgive Qin Qing."
Although Wu Xian didn't reprimand either Xu Jie or Qin Li, it can be seen from the fact that Xu Jie was supported by Tianhai natives and Qin Li was **** off.
Qin Li raised his eyebrows: "...My lord doesn't need to do this."
Wu Xian carefully observed his expression, trying to get a glimpse of Qin Li's true emotions from this calm face.
"...Then Qin Qing is not angry?"
Qin Li couldn't hold back, shook his head helplessly and said: "Who is the lord who is Li? This kind of conflict and ups and downs are inevitable. It is impossible for colleagues and colleagues to have no disputes. Li doesn't care about such small things, but —”
Wu Xian heaved a sigh of relief after hearing the previous words.
But as soon as the "but" comes out, my heart hangs again.
"But what?"
Qin Li deliberated over and over again, but decided to speak out—since he chose to assist Wu Xian, he couldn't watch him step into the trap, but his honest words were harsh, and it would inevitably be unpleasant and offend one or two people who didn't deal with them. It's just Xu Jie, he will be afraid?
"But Xu Wenzhu..."
Wu Xian interrupted him in a low voice: "Wenzhu is the most taboo for others to talk about the businessmen of the Xu family. Qin Qing's disdain for merchants today will inevitably be hated by him. Can't say any more."
Qin Li's eyes are complicated.
But he continued: "Li does not despise merchants, but just hates those who pursue profit but ignore the overall situation."
Qin Li is not a person with multiple family backgrounds. When he is really down and out, how much dry food can this thing be exchanged for?
It was just Xu Jie's choice that made him really angry.
Wu Xian could hear the meaning behind his words.
Spokenly said: "This is a bit serious, Wen Zhu still knows the seriousness of the matter. If there is a problem, Dayi will warn the police...Wen Zhu should have weighed it..."
Qin Li snorted softly from the tip of his nose.
"There is no such thing as a perfect balance in this world. People who are too greedy will eventually be eaten back by greed." Qin Li naturally knew that Xu Jie would not do anything that was unfavorable to Wu Xian, but because of the benefits given by Shen Tang, Xu Jie turned Instead, I changed my attitude, hoping to bring about a friendly relationship between the two companies, hello, hello, hello everyone.
This kind of thinking is quite dangerous.
In Qin Li's view, it was a betrayal that wasn't considered a betrayal.
Wu Xian also knew that Qin Li was thinking for his own benefit, so naturally he couldn't force the latter to do or not to do, but it was necessary to say a few heartfelt words to him. The whole sentence is not persuasion, but every word is persuasion.
What did you say?
Just say how much Xu Jie "donated generously".
Wu Xian can develop so fast, he needs people, food, food, and money. In addition to Wu's own solid background, the help of followers is also indispensable to Xu's full support. As long as Xu Jie didn't actually betray, stab a knife, or do something unforgivable, even if Xu Jie said that he liked his concubine in the backyard, Wu Xian would agree.
Implications—
Qin Li is a smart person and naturally understands.
Xu Jie doesn't speak easily, and once he speaks, it's hard to refuse.
Speaking of this level, Qin Li had no choice but to take a step back: "My lord's words, the etiquette will be kept in my heart."
Try not to confront Xu Jie with the needle tip.
With Xu Jie's profit-seeking personality, if he doesn't deal with him, he will be pushed into the arms of the enemy—Xu Jie can't leave Wu Xian's account, but as the patriarch and patriarch, he also prevents some members of the clan from investing in loyalty to others. No way?
There are always more solutions than difficulties.
Seeing Qin Li being wronged for himself, Wu Xian endured this tone and said with a guilty conscience: "Hey, Qin Qing was wronged..."
"but-"
That word again.
Wu Xian's little heart rose again.
"But what?"
Qin Lidao: "However, we still have to be vigilant against Shen Youli."
Wu Xian was puzzled.
Qin Li is also too attached to Hei Chentang and Qi Shan.
said: "I think Shen Youli is also very good, a sincere and enthusiastic young man, it is a blessing for the common people to meet him. Why is Qin Qing so afraid? Just because he is the lord of evil schemes?"
Qin Li shook his head and said: "That's not true, it's just that the moment Li saw this person, he knew that this person was not willing to be subordinated to others. The pure goodness and sincerity were just a disguise. Under this skin, there was a sun-swallowing bird. Moon's ambition!"
Wu Xian: "???"
Suddenly wondered whether he and Qin Li said Shen Tang was the same person, but even so, there was no need to be afraid of Shen Youli so early. Form an alliance first, and then talk about it after dealing with others.
Such as Gu Ren, such as Zhang He.
Wu Xian has been unhappy with these two for a long time.
Especially Gu Ren Nasi.
Is it great to have many brothers?
"Furthermore, the more Li thinks about it these days, the more something is wrong."
"What's wrong?"
Qin Li didn't talk about it in detail.
He always felt that something was wrong, the Four Treasures formed an alliance, and Shen Tang ran ahead of time to take office. On the surface, he said that it was not easy to march and fight with a group of old and weak women and children. Coupled with the retreat of the rebels, he had to pursue quickly if he wanted to expand the results of the battle, so Fall behind.
But that's too much of a coincidence.
Everywhere is reasonable and everywhere is unreasonable.
But it was just his intuition, and he couldn't convince anyone.
"In a word, be vigilant and beware, you can never go wrong."
He also wanted to tell Wu Xian to pay attention to Xu Jie's actions, don't let him be overwhelmed by the benefits given by Shen Tang, and do something arrogant, then it will be too late... But thinking about today's conflict, he swallowed the words . After all, Xu Jie is also the patriarch of the aristocratic family, not just a merchant, so he should have this awareness, right?
At this time, Wu Xian said: "Wen Zhu brought back two hundred jars of wine from Shen Youli, and sent fifty jars to my house. I don't know if the effect is true or not. Qin Qing is a good drinker, why don't you also bring a few jars?" "
No money required.
Qin Li: "..."
Qin Li is full of worries, what about Xu Jie?
Hey, he's throwing a party.
