Chapter 803: It's time for Jia Rui to show the E-shap

  Chapter 803 E-character scroll is the time for Jia Rui to perform (continue to ask for a monthly ticket!)

  Feng Ziying has not been to Daguanlou for a long time.

  I saw the bustling crowd from a long distance, the traffic was busy, and the stream was endless. It was already overcrowded from the two ends of the street, but the main reason was that there were too many hawkers.

   Along the road, there are sellers of candied haws, sugar figurines, roasted seeds and nuts, hubing biscuits, and some even set up a wooden table to sell sour plum juice.

   Even in an open space outside the theater garden, a juggler was bringing a macaque around to beat the gong, preparing to start a circle and sell it.

The macaque was quite obedient, and staggered but flexibly ran in a circle. The gong tied by the red string in his hand was knocked loudly by it, and some guests who hadn't entered the venue or had no place simply formed a circle. , first look juggling.

  The carriage passed by slowly and detoured behind the theater, where the parking lot was.

  Feng Ziying carefully helped Shen Yixiu out of the car, and Qingwen quickly put down Shen Yixiu's hood and shade.

  Shen Yixiu's Tiangui finally didn't come, so Feng's family hurriedly invited a doctor to come to check his pulse, and the results made everyone in Feng's family overjoyed, the eldest and youngest mistress was finally pregnant.

   Shen Yixiu, who was pregnant, became a little more lively instead. Not only did he eat a lot, but he was even less willing to stay in the mansion. In this spring, he only wanted to go out.

  The day before yesterday, I just stepped out of the green, and today I want to go to the theater again.

   It was impossible to invite the troupe to the mansion to perform, but I have to say that the courtyard in the mansion is still a bit small, and the troupe still can't do their best when they come in.

  Feng Ziying also thought that she might leave the capital city soon, and after Shen Yixiu was pregnant, she obviously couldn't travel with her, and she didn't have much time to accompany her, so she agreed to accompany her to the theater.

"Be careful, don't run too fast." Shen Yixiu, who was pregnant, immediately became the key protection object of the whole family, and even Feng Ziying paid special attention to it. I am not sure if I will let the woman after I travel to this world. The ability to conceive, now I can finally let go of my heart.

   Also happy that Shen Yixiu was pregnant was Youshi Shuangshu, so that they would no longer have so many taboos to use contraception.

The two girls were too tall, and the second sister You also wore a veiled hat and followed closely behind Shen Yixiu, while the third sister You simply changed into men's clothing as before, and put on a bra to tighten her bulging **** and put on a Wearing a blue silk casual gown, with a face like a crown jade, full red lips, and gray-blue eyes, he looks even more heroic.

"It's only been a month or so." Seeing her husband being so caring and caring, Shen Yixiu liked it in his heart, but on the surface he said coquettishly: "It's still eight or nine months away. If your husband is like this, isn't he a concubine? You can't even go out, so you can only lie on the bed?"

"I'm wrong. When you have a body, you should pay more attention to proper activities. You should move more every day, but you should pay attention to the form of activities. Some activities that are too large should be avoided, and walking is the best one." This is a form of mobility, but be careful going up and down steps to avoid falls."

  Feng Ziying was serious and authentic, but Shen Yixiu was very curious, "Your husband also knows medicine?"

   "My husband has studied with Master Zhang for two years, and I still understand the basic medical principles, but I dare not prescribe prescriptions and prescribe medicines." Feng Ziying shook her head, "However, I understand the principles of health care for pregnant women."

  Seeing that her husband is so particular, Shen Yixiu likes it even more in his heart. The young woman's style between his eyebrows is mixed with a kind of sweetness, which makes one's heart fascinated.

However, Shen Yixiu still pays attention to the emotions of all parties. Seeing that the second sister You is following closely, he tilted his head and said in a low voice: "Sister You family has to hurry up, mother-in-law said it, I hope the two younger sisters of the You family will give birth to the husband as soon as possible A man and a half woman,..."

  Second Sister You was also overjoyed, looking forward to Shen Yixiu's words.

  Although the mother-in-law thinks so, she still has to take care of her mentality. What if Shen Yixiu gave birth to a daughter and she becomes pregnant and gives birth to a son? Although there will not be any disputes, it is inevitable that some small-minded women will feel uncomfortable.

The problem is that now Feng Lang only has two concubines, himself and his younger sister. Now that Shen Yixiu is pregnant, he can't sleep with his two sisters. Most of the time, his two sisters sleep with him. It can be said that now is the best opportunity for the two sisters. Maybe wait a little longer. Once another woman enters the house, it will be divided and favored again.

So after getting this sentence, Second Sister You thinks that her sisters can prepare for pregnancy with confidence and boldly without having to calculate the time. With a firm foothold, there is no need to worry about other women sharing the favor.

  Liu Xianglian came out to greet her, seeing Feng Ziying supporting Shen Yixiu, Liu Xianglian also came up to greet her.

  Shen Yixiu had also met Liu Xianglian, and knowing that this was an acquaintance with his brother-in-law, he also went to see Liu Xianglian graciously.

"Didn't you say that your younger brother and sister are pregnant? Why do you still come out, and you are not afraid of your aunt's scolding?" Liu Xianglian saw that Shen Yixiu and Feng Ziying's two concubines had come, and he knew that the Feng family valued Shen Yixiu, the first child of a big woman. Let Da Duan know about going out, Feng Ziying will definitely be scolded again.

   "It's okay, it's still early, doing some activities, watching a play can also relieve her mood, and staying at the mansion all day, she will also get bored." Feng Ziying explained.

Liu Xianglian also knew that Feng Ziying still cherished and respected this first wife, so she thought for a while and said: "There are so many people in this place, especially during the performances, it is inevitable that there will be people shouting and shouting, and they will inevitably be frightened. If the younger siblings are in the house You are so bored here, you might as well let the girls from the Rongguo Mansion go to your mansion for a while, so you can count as being with your younger siblings."

Liu Xianglian's good intentions also felt that Lin Daiyu was already engaged to Feng Ziying anyway, and the two daughters would be sisters-in-law sooner or later, and the other women were also relatives of Feng Ziying. But she didn't expect that Feng Ziying's heart was beating drums.

The matter of Baochai has not been revealed yet, Shen Yixiu knows about it, but even Daiyu is still kept in the dark, Tanchun and Xiangyun don't know either, these two daughters, Feng Ziying, can feel the growing affection for her He didn't dare to pat his chest and say how much affection the two women had for him, but Feng Ziying could feel the faint affection.

   This is not counting the imminent Spring Festival, thinking that if all these girls come to the mansion, if that sentence is missed, it may immediately become a Shura field. Thinking of this, Feng Ziying shuddered.

But this Liu Xianglian is still in front of Shen Yixiu and Eryou's proposal, she really can't say no to it, before he has time to speak, Shen Yixiu is already happy, "That's right, Mr. Lin, I will invite sister Lin and the other younger sisters tomorrow Let's all come to the mansion for a little while. Didn't you have already made a few sets of the bamboo and wood chess and cards that you arranged for people to make? There are only me and sister You's family at home, and there are not enough people to play. Let a few sisters come over, just to teach Let's play together."

   Now that Shen Yixiu is pregnant, Duan asked Shen Yixiu not to recite poems and paint, saying that reciting poems and painting is exhausting, which is not good for the body.

  Shen Yixiu is extremely bored staying in the mansion all day long, and just needs other ways of entertainment to pass the time.

After Feng Ziying came back that day, he wanted to make this mahjong. He drew the pattern by himself, so he arranged for the carpenter in the mansion to pick some bamboo and wood for cutting and polishing, and then asked Feng Runxiang to come to two carvers. At that time, several pairs of extremely exquisite mahjong tiles have been made.

  Feng Ziying briefly taught Shen Yixiu and Eryou the rules of the game. Because there are many things to do, they haven't played it formally yet, so Shen Yixiu and Eryou don't know how powerful this thing will be.

   "Chess and cards?" Liu Xianglian was also very curious, "Ziying, you can also play chess and cards, what kind of chess and cards? Chess?"

   "No, it's a new thing that my younger brother figured out from the horse tag. I just made it, and I'll know when Second Brother Liu comes to the house to have a look." Feng Ziying said cheerfully.

He is even thinking about how quickly this thing will become popular in the entire capital city. Although the boatmen and porters on the side of the canal already have this thing, they are all drawn on paper. Not to mention it is very rough, and it is not as crisp and vigorous as playing this kind of bamboo wood after polishing, and the taste of mahjong rubbing is not comparable to that of playing cards.

  Several people were talking, someone led Feng Ziying and his party to the private room on the second floor.

Shen Yixiu has never been to the Daguan Building, and he is very curious about this kind of private room theater that presents a ring shape. The seats in the private room are also divided into three rows, showing the situation that the front is low and the back is high, the front is narrow and the back is wide. For example, the first row can seat two people. , the second row can seat four people, and the third row can seat six people.

  The room is not only equipped with tea table and tea, but also various fruit cakes, which can be described as a real VIP room level.

  Watching a play is also relaxing, but it doesn’t make much sense to Feng Ziying. He doesn’t like this kind of pastime, and he might as well play mahjong.

But if I don't show up for a long time, it means that I may gradually lose influence and control over Daguanlou, a carrier platform that I have painstakingly built and operated in the early stage. Although Liu Xianglian is reliable, Feng Ziying is unwilling to test it. people's hearts.

   Jia Yun had no choice but to leave the Grand View Building. Haitong Yinzhuang Jingshi needs a more capable man to help Jia Lian. Feng Ziying can't rush to find a replacement when Jia Lian is about to leave.

Without Jia Yun, and Xue Pan's ability is severely lacking, it is impossible for Han Qi and Wei Ruolan to focus on the Grand View Building. Many things can only be decided by Liu Xianglian alone. I can't see it now, but in the future. It's hard to say.

   It’s not that I’m looking forward to the profit of this Daguan Building, but that such a place where people come and go, especially the places where dignitaries and nobles in the capital city often come, will often play unexpected roles.

Just like finding signs of Yang Yinglong's instability, this place has become the most effective place to monitor Yang Yinglong's intelligence personnel in the capital city. Risheng, how this place can connect with the intelligence system that Wang Wenyan is trying to build and cultivate will play a greater role.

  The "The Folded Willow" of "The Story of the Purple Hairpin" was performed on the stage. Seeing Shen Yixiu, Youshi Shuangshu, Qingwen, Yunshang and others were fascinated, Feng Ziying quietly got up and left the private room.

  Ni Er has already been waiting at the side.

   "Master." Seeing Feng Ziying coming downstairs, Ni Er, who looked like a wealthy gentleman, followed immediately.

Feng Ziying looked Ni Er up and down, and then nodded, "Well, Ni Er, your status is different now, and you have more dealings with the higher-ups, so you need to pay attention to it. You must pay attention to the ordinary things below. You have to keep an eye on it, but you don’t necessarily need to do it yourself, many times you need to use your heart instead of force,..."

Ni Er nodded again and again, "What the uncle said is that the uncle taught me a lesson a few years ago, so I paid attention to it. I have already handed over the business of pulling dung in the city to the third child, but he has become a little irritable, so I dare not lose it." Hands, and even if it is dealing with the Ministry of Industry and Shuntian Mansion, I am doing it myself,..."

  Feng Ziying nodded slightly, "What about my account?"

   "Don't worry, sir, I personally arranged to find these people. Mr. Wen Yan has been here several times and selected some people..."

Ni Er observed Feng Ziying's expression, Wang Wenyan came to him to select several competent people, which made him very heartbroken, but this was confessed by Feng Ziying himself, and it was also an opportunity for those people, so Ni Er could only let it go , although I don't know what Wang Wenyan is going to do, but it must be an important thing, and I can't compare with this little property.

   "Ni Er, be more open-minded. In the future, these people will have good luck. Speaking of which, it was also carried out by you, Ni Erye, and you have a bright face." Feng Ziying smiled.

Ni's second-hand subordinates have three religions and nine streams, dragons and snakes are mixed, and the number of people is large, but apart from the locals in the capital city, a considerable number of them are refugees from the northern Zhili prefectures who have fled to the capital city due to floods, droughts and locust disasters in the past 10 to 20 years. It also includes some refugees from Shandong and Liaodong.

They themselves or their parents or even grandparents fled to the capital city, and then slowly settled down, engaged in various low-level labor in the capital city, and became a huge group at the bottom of the capital city, and a large group of backbone members under Ni's second hand were all from these people.

  Among them, in addition to the counties of Shuntian Prefecture, Baoding Prefecture, Hejian Prefecture and Yongping Prefecture around Shuntian Prefecture have the most native places.

  Feng Ziying wants Wang Wenyan to quickly open up the situation in the north, especially to create an intelligence network. It is essential to have enough capable manpower. Where these people come from mainly depends on Ni Er, a local snake.

   After Ni Er took over the excrement cleaning and transportation work in the capital city, the manpower under his hands increased exponentially. Later, under the guidance of Feng Ziying, he joined the Ministry of War and Shuntian Mansion, and the manpower increased further.

Now there are at least six or seven hundred people who eat under Ni’s second hand, and this is not counting those who are called temporarily. In addition to his original work of some housekeepers and nursing homes to open casinos and private kilns, the main thing is to ask for excrement and water. The Ministry of Industry is responsible for the construction of dredging ditches, rivers and even some facilities in the city that require a lot of manpower.

  Because Ni's second-hand staff has ample manpower, and most of these people come from the surrounding counties of Shuntian Prefecture, and many of them have relatives and old friends in their hometown, so this is also the best target group for Wang Wenyan to choose.

  Wang Wenyan was extremely picky about picking people, and all the characters Ni Er liked were picked away, which naturally made Ni Er heartbroken.

   "That's it, that's it." Ni Er could only admit it, but then again, what Feng Ziying said was right, if these guys had a future, then he could stand up and speak more forcefully.

   "Then Jia Rui is here?" Feng Ziying asked again.

   "He came, but he didn't say anything, just that you asked him to come. I talked to him for a while, and this guy is very cunning, and he didn't say anything."

Ni Er was also very curious about Feng Ziying's arrangement for Jia Rui to come to him. Feng Ziying didn't say anything specific, but only said that it had something to do with the affairs in Jia's mansion. Now Ni Er still has thousands of taels of silver in debt with Jia's mansion. I didn't receive it, and I was thinking about how to collect debts, but I didn't expect that Jia Rui was also collecting debts for others.

   "Ni Er, Mr. She, Brother Zhen and Brother Rong have made a lot of money from you, right?" Feng Ziying said with a smile.

  Ni Er chuckled, "Master, isn't that your idea? Then my reputation will be bad in the future, who will give us the work."

"That's not the case. The money originally belonged to Jia's mansion, and Mr. She and Brother Zhen are the owners of Jia's mansion. The doorway here is not clear. Jia's mansion arranges suitable candidates by itself. Is there any supervision system?" , such problems are inevitable.” Feng Ziying shook her head, “However, there are still servants in Jia’s mansion who have made a lot of money from it, even more money than the masters,…”

  Ni Er's eyes lit up, and then he hesitated, "Master, are you talking about the Lai family?"

It has to be said that the Lai family really has some respects in the Jia family. Rao Jia Amnesty and Jia Zhen teamed up. Although some jobs were won, some jobs for purchasing items were still taken by the Lai family. A profit is also not small, because the Lai family is more ruthless.

For example, almost all the flowers and trees in the garden were contracted by the Lai family, and a large part of the wood was also contracted by the Lai family when the garden was built. In addition, the main building of Taiguan was built by people hired by Lai Da. Jia Amnesty tore his face apart, and in the end it was Jia Mu who came forward and handed it over to the Lai family. This also made Jia Amnesty extremely angry, and at the same time, it also annoyed Ni Er, who had always wanted to win.

   "Well, do you understand what I mean?" Feng Ziying smiled.

  Pinger came to look for Feng Ziying again yesterday, but Feng Ziying was not there, but Feng Ziying roughly knew the purpose of Pinger's coming to find her, and originally said that she would wait a little longer before picking up the **** of Jia's mansion.

   But it happened so coincidentally that Feng Ziying soon got a piece of news that the Lai family's son seemed to be going to be an official soon.

  Officials, foreign officials, going to office, the son of the Lai family is going out to become an official, but the Jia family seems to have not received the news at all, which is too strange.
