When Ji Yunxi saw him take it, he sat back.
Wu Weian didn't open it for the first time, and sat next to her with the post.
His slender and fair fingertips turned the gilded sticker over and over, his eyebrows drooping slightly.
Ji Yunxi ignored him and picked up the casino house deed sent by the Feng family to look at it.
After a while, Wu Weian opened the post, and when he saw the first auspicious day, he raised his eyebrows slightly: "April 18? Is there time before January?"
Ji Yunxi put soft cushions behind the mahogany chair, she leaned back leisurely, her eyes fell on the house deed in her hand, and she said lightly, "It's too late."
Wu Weian glanced at her. Although his fiancée is still as indifferent as usual, and there is no expression on that beautiful face, but he just thinks she is in a good mood at the moment
Wu Weian frowned: "There are so many things to prepare for a big wedding, how could it be possible in time?"
Ji Yunxi put down the house deed in her hand and flipped through the thick ledger: "As long as you have enough money, you can probably get married tomorrow if you want."
Wu Weian: "..."
Also, money can make ghosts run the mill, what is a marriage
Wu Weian looked cold: "But my Wu family can't."
He has no money.
Ji Yunxi raised his chin toward the gold that was about to be carried back to Wu's house in front of him: "Ten thousand taels of gold should be enough."
Wu Weian: "???"
He closed the post with a slam and narrowed his eyes slightly: "Miss San, are you going too far?"
These days, he Wu Wei'an Han Chuang studied hard, thinking that he could get back a large sum of money. That money was enough for him to support the people behind him for several years, so he didn't have to live a life of being called for debts from time to time.
But I really didn't expect that the Feng family is not good at all. It looks very rich, but the storeroom at home is so small. It really makes people hate iron.
Even so, he was able to get back 10,000 taels of gold anyway, so he could handle it for some time.
In the end, according to the meaning of the third girl of the Ji family, he still has to return the ten thousand taels of gold through a wedding ceremony?
This transaction is really a loss, a big loss and a huge loss.
No wonder her Ji family is rich enough to rival the country. With Ji Yunxi around, can she not be rich
Ji Yunxi finally looked up at him: "You will have to spend the marriage money sooner or later. And don't worry, the drinks and banquets and a series of arrangements on the wedding day will be handled by me. If you want, a new house will do."
Wu Weian snorted softly, reopened the post, and looked at the other two days: "Choosing a day is worse than hitting the sun, then choose the closest one, April 18th."
Hearing this sentence, Ji Yunxi rarely showed a bit of surprise on his face.
She originally thought he would choose the last day, but he actually chose April
Wu Weian threw the post on the table, took a sip of the tea cup, looked at Ji Yunxi's face, and raised his eyebrows: "No?"
"Okay." Ji Yunxi looked back, "It's just beyond my expectations."
Wu Weian looked at the boxes of gold in front of him, smiled and said nothing, but his face was inscrutable.
Since it has been decided to get married, it should be done as soon as possible. It saves those three sects he knows, such as Mr. Qin, from having time to rush to the capital to attend the wedding banquet. At that time, these people will have to ask the steward to arrange the necessities of life for these people in Shangjing. He will have to pay for the money. After all, they all work for him.
And they can't give any gifts. Wu Weian quit this loss-making business.
After the two set the date for their big wedding, Wu Weian returned to Wu's house with his 10,000 taels of gold.
Ji Yunxi asked the family carriage to take him back. Before the carriage, Baofu asked people to remove the drinks, cakes, and rouge gouache in the dark grid, especially the hand mirror with feathered pattern.
This feather-patterned hand mirror is personally made by a famous craftsman in Jiangnan, using the best materials, and the mirror surface is much clearer than other hand mirrors sold in the world. The carving took a lot of thought, it looked simple but it was actually extremely cumbersome.
It's just a pity that the craftsman injured his hand a few years ago, so this mirror has only two sides in the world.
If it is taken away again, the lady will be gone! !

In the Dayu Dynasty, the business of casinos was not something that could be done, and it had to be approved by the court.
At present, there are a total of eight casinos in Shangjing, of which Dechang casino is the largest and has the most people. And these eight families were previously in the hands of the Feng family.
But these days, these eight casinos have all closed their doors and are not open for business.
In the afternoon, Ji Yunxi's carriage stopped outside the gate of Dechang Casino.
Unlike the crowd of people outside the Dechang Casino a few days ago, this time there was no one outside the casino.
Passers-by came and went, at most pointing at Ji Yunxi's carriage when passing by, chatting a few gossip with each other, and then busying themselves.
Someone was guarding outside the casino, and when he saw Ji Yunxi, he bowed his head and bowed and respectfully opened the door.
Ji Yunxi walked in with a group of people.
It was a mess inside, the chips were spilled on the ground, and the tables and chairs were upside down, like a thief.
The Feng family gave the casino to Ji Yunxi, and even the people who worked in the casino also handed it over to her.
These people were hired by the Feng family in front of them. They were not servants of the Feng family. They were just doing things with wages from the Feng family.
This time, it's like they changed employers.
Seeing Ji Yunxi come in, some loyal ones bowed their heads and waited respectfully, daring not to speak. There was some unpleasant expression on his face, and he looked at Ji Yunxi with a look of dissatisfaction with his hands around his chest. Some people with long sleeves and good dance, showed a pleasing smile to Ji Yunxi, and shouted 'Three Girls' and "Three Girls" better than anyone else.
Ji Yunxi only responded lightly, and glanced at the messy ground: "Have you all rested at home for the past three days?"
People who work in casinos, look at me, I look at you, and I don't even know what medicine Ji Yunxi sells in the gourd.
An old friend who had always been friends with the Feng family jumped out: "Yeah, you can only rest. The guards of the three girls' family are blocking the entrance of the casino, who would dare to come?"
Many people agreed with him and nodded, with anger and dissatisfaction on their faces.
Ji Yunxi raised her eyes and slowly looked over.
She has been researching casinos all these days, and she has also learned about the employees in these casinos in advance.
These unconvinced guys all have relatively important positions in the casino, and they are very experienced old guys.
Every line is like a mountain, and every line has its doorway. Ji Yunxi has never been in contact with casinos, although she has been preparing these days, but in the end it is only a matter of fact.
The Feng family also guessed this. They are so generous to give the guys to the Ji family, naturally they are not trying to do good things.
These old guys are deeply tied to the Feng family, and they are the eyes of the Feng family when they are placed in the casino. Not only that, but it can also disgust the Ji family and Ji Yunxi.
And the Feng family was confident that Ji Yunxi did not dare to kick these old guys.
You know, as soon as these old guys leave, no one understands the way of the casino.
"Three girls, can this casino open today?" the old man's boss continued to ask, "If you want to open the door, you must have money. At least there must be 10,000 taels of gold, and there is no shortage of guests at Dechang Casino. The rich, when the casino loses, and there is no money to pay to the guests, how can we open this casino?"
That head was a man in his forties, and everyone called him Master Ye. Dechang Casino can now become the largest of the eight casinos, and it is inseparable from Master Ye. Master Ye is good at arithmetic and has a flexible mind. He has studied several new gambling methods by himself, and has made Dechang Casino prosperous. Although the steward is the one who manages the casino, in fact, Master Ye is the real big man in the Dechang casino.
Ji Yunxi chuckled lightly.
Master Ye looked at the little girl with disdain in his heart, waiting for Ji Yunxi to speak. He even started to think about what Ji Yunxi would say and how he would mock him back.
After all, she is just such a girl, still want to interfere in this casino? Don't you get used to acting like a blessing just because you're the Ji family
Ji Yunxi didn't say anything, she just tilted her head and glanced back: "Fang Yuan."
After Baofu and Wanxiang, eight men followed. Before that, everyone didn't pay much attention to these eight men.
It wasn't until they saw Ji Yunxi looking back that everyone followed.
Seeing the people in the crowd, Master Ye was quite surprised.
Because there was someone he knew, and that person liked to open small gambling games among the neighbors on weekdays. As a result, he was arrested and quickly arrested. He was imprisoned for three years, and he was released not long ago.
Among the eight men, one was the shortest and thinnest. After hearing Ji Yunxi's call, he immediately walked out and trotted to Ji Yunxi's side: "Hey, three girls."
The man was dressed in black, with patches all over his clothes and a hole in his shoes.
He was not tall, a head shorter than Ji Yunxi, and extremely slender. The face was also very small, and the skin was not in very good condition due to the wind and the sun, but the eyes were quite agile.
This person was the person Ji Yunxi took a fancy to in Fumanlou on the day Chunwei released the list.
She asked Baofu to contact each other privately, and the terms were negotiated in the past few days.
Ji Yunxi said to the crowd in Dechang Casino, "This is Fang Yuan, and he is the manager of Dechang Casino from today. Everything about the casino is under his control. When will the casino be in charge? How much money does it take to open a business, Fang Guanshi will naturally report it to me, and there is no need for other people to worry about it."
Master Ye stood up straight for a moment: "Three girls, how old is this talent, you let him be in charge?!"
Fang Yuan looked at Master Ye, and said with air: "I'm not too young, I'm eighteen this year."
Ji Yunxi ignored Master Ye at all, and Fang Yuan explained: "There are some things that you have to worry about, but you can do it with confidence, I will tell you what's going on."
Fang Yuan smiled happily, and bowed to Ji Yunxi: "Please rest assured, the three girls, the little ones will be able to take care of them." The voice was clear and sweet.
Fang Yuan did very poorly in the Chunwei exam this time. It is God's blessing to be able to pass the township examination to participate in the Spring Festival.
Logically speaking, if he missed the spring season, he was also a great man, and he might be able to find an errand in the yamen when he returned to his hometown.
However, Fang Yuan could not go back, nor would he go back. Now that he has such a good opportunity, he will not leave Shangjing even if he dies.
Ji Yunxi nodded, said nothing, and took the remaining seven new stewards from various places to go to other casinos.
She never thought of taking care of these Feng family's eyeliners herself. She's really rich, so why should she bother to do it herself? Wouldn't it be better to spend money to find talent to help her run the casino
Seeing Ji Yunxi leave, Master Ye was so angry that his beard was so tall that he wanted to chase after him to ask for an explanation, but was stopped by Fang Yuan's call.
Fang Yuan sat on the chair, holding Erlang's legs high and pinching his fingernails: "The third girl said it, I have the final say here. If you have something to do with me, don't go over me to find the third girl, understand? The third girl is busy. Very, there is no time to take care of you, and don't look at yourself, is it worth the three girls to take care of you?"

After Ji Yunxi walked through the eight casinos, it was already dark when she got home, and it was later than the brothers came back. Everyone was waiting for her to have dinner.
The palace exam is now managed by Feng Yushi, Ji Mingxi rarely has a few free days, and he has been caring about his younger brothers and sisters since he was a child.
He sat on the main seat with a cup of tea, and first asked his sister, "Mother Yun, is everything going well?"
Ji Yunxi nodded and smiled: "It went well."
"That's good." Ji Ming nodded happily, and after asking his sister, he looked at his younger brothers.
Ji Mingshuang, the champion of high school, has been attending various banquets these days. He has many friends, and naturally there are many such occasions. He has not eaten at home for several days.
Ji Mingxi explained: "Mingshuang, don't be proud."
Ji Mingshuang replied: "Brother, don't worry, I know."
The seventh brother in the family is actually the most reassuring child in the family. Ji Mingxi didn't say more and looked at the sixth brother.
Ji Mingyan slumped on the table and stuffed white rice into his mouth with a sullen expression.
Ji Mingxi asked, "Ming Yan, are you feeling unwell?"
But Ji Mingyan's body couldn't be uncomfortable.
He is good at drugs, and he has also learned a good medical skill for the safety of his brothers, brothers and sisters.
He is in great health, and he has never even had a cold, so only the elder brother would worry about him being ill.
Ji Mingyan shook his head: "No."
Ji Mingxi's face was very worried: "I'll go to the prince and let the imperial doctor in the palace show you, don't you catch the cold."
Ji Mingyan continued to shake his head: "No."
Ji Mingshuang couldn't see it anymore, so he stretched out his hand and threw a chicken leg into Ji Mingyan's bowl. Then he said happily to Ji Ming: "Big brother, Ji Mingyan, he's fine. It's just that his new poison has never been successful, and he's not in the mood."
Ji Mingxi snorted, took a sip of tea, and started to eat.
Ji Mingyan began to mechanically nibble on the chicken legs, his eyes were dull and dull.
Ji Yunxi sat on the other side of Ji Mingyan, seeing that he threw a few green cabbage leaves into his bowl, and said, "By the way, I have something else to do."
Ji Mingxi and Ji Ming looked at her in unison, and Ji Mingyan slowly turned his head with a green cabbage leaf in his mouth.
With a bowl in his left hand and chopsticks in his right, Ji Yunxi smashed out a big message in a very casual tone: "On the eighteenth of next month, I will marry An Lang."
The three Ji brothers nodded when they heard the words, but they didn't react much. They turned their heads in unison and continued to eat their meal.
But, in the next instant, when they realized what Ji Yunxi's words meant—
Ji Mingxi maintained the position of putting the eggplant in his mouth and opened his mouth wide.
Ji Mingshuang was directly choked by the food in his mouth. He quickly covered his hands with one hand, got up and left the table, ran out quickly, and then spit out.
Ji Mingyan's chicken leg with a hole in his hand fell directly on the table, and the green cabbage leaves in his mouth were sprayed far away by him.
Ji Yunxi looked at the green cabbage leaves on the table, frowned, and called out in disgust, "Sixth brother."
"Third sister!!" Ji Mingyan wiped his mouth and sat up in shock, "Are you finally going to marry your brother-in-law?! After you get married, will your brother-in-law's family move into our Ji family? Then, am I not every day? I can make up his body, and see Sister A Po every day?! I have been unsuccessful in my new drug recently, and I want Sister A Po to go to the manor to help him, but she refused to come. She said she was a cook and came to Ji Mansion If it is not suitable for me, I will be found abnormal!"
Ji Yunxi shook her head: "Probably not."
She and Wu Weian married normally, not let him marry.
Of course it would be good to move into Ji's house, but Wu Weian would not agree, nor would Ji Yunxi make this request.
Ji Mingyan let out a pity, but he immediately said, "Then after you get married, can I move to Wu's house with you?"
Ji Yunxi: "?"
Ji Mingxi: "??"
Ji Mingshuang who came back after vomiting: "???"
He patted Ji Mingyan on the back with a cold face, "Of course not!"
Ji Mingyan was angry: "Why not?!"
Ji Mingshuang: "I just can't, eat your chicken legs."
Ji Mingyan looked at Ji Yunxi and his elder brother's faces: "Okay."
It really doesn't seem to work.
Ji Yunxi said: "I asked An Lang to buy a new house in the past few days, and let him buy it near Ji Mansion."
Ji Mingyan's eyes lit up again: "This is good!!"
Ji Mingxi put down the tableware and chopsticks: "Mother Yun, but these days, will it be too urgent?"
Ji Yunxi: "I think it's fine."
Ji Mingshuang: "Where is it? It's not even this month. You have to prepare wedding clothes, prepare a banquet, and draw up a guest list. There are so many things to prepare!"
Ji Mingxi nodded: "Mingshuang is right, can't it be a few months later?"
Ji Yunxi shook her head: "On the eighteenth next month, it's over as soon as possible, so as not to have a lot of dreams at night."
Ji Mingshuang: "..."
He had a lot to say in his heart. If it were before, he would certainly have talked at length. But this time, he subconsciously glanced at his elder brother.
Ji Mingxi also had a helpless expression on his face, and he probably felt that it was very outrageous and incredible in his heart.
But he shook his head gently, his hand naturally touched the tea cup, picked it up, took a sip, and said, "Well, then you can do it yourself."
Ji Mingshuang: "..."
Okay, it seems to be useless. Forget it, he shut up.
Ji Mingxi took another sip of tea: "Your second brother is stationed in the frontier, and you can't easily return to Beijing. But your fifth brother can. I will write him a letter later and ask him to come back immediately."
Ji Mingyan's eyes brightened when he heard this, and he threw away the bone of the chicken thigh: "Okay, okay! I haven't seen fifth brother for a long time, I miss him so much! I was out looking for that poisonous lady, I also went to the Fifth Brother Shimen to find him, but when I went to the Shimen, they all said that the fifth brother was in retreat, so I didn't even see him!"
Ji Mingshuang snorted coldly: "I think fifth brother clearly doesn't want to see you."
Ji Mingyan rubbed Ji Mingshuang's head with one hand: "What's the matter with you! Why do you keep talking about me? Mingshuang, remember, I'm your brother! I'm also your brother for a few months!"
Ji Ming clenched his fists with both hands, blue veins bursting out, he gritted his teeth: "Which hand did you use?"
Ji Mingyan retracted his hand, looked at it, found that the oil was almost gone, and said happily, "Grab the chicken leg."
"Ji Mingyan!" Ji Mingshuang was furious, and the two brothers fought on the spot.
You punch me and kick me, from inside to outside the hall.
Ji Mingxi and Ji Yunxi sat firmly at the dining table.
Ji Mingxi took another sip of tea, recited a few Buddhist scriptures, and continued to eat.
Ji Yunxi also picked up the bowl and chopsticks again, thinking about where there is a suitable house around the house while eating.
In fact, there is one place that is quite suitable, and the house is now in her hands.
However, no one seems to know it's hers
Ji Yunxi lowered her head and curled the corners of her lips.
-
Wu Weian moved the 10,000 taels of gold back to his room and announced to the Wu family that he would marry Ji Yunxi on the 18th of next month.
In the Wu family study.
Wu Qi frowned: "This time is too tight, we can't prepare many things."
Wu Weian sat on the chair with an indifferent expression: "Don't worry, father, the three girls will prepare, and we will cooperate."
Wu Qi looked at his eldest son and didn't know what to say for a while.
This son, as a father, never understood.
Wu Qi sighed: "Weian, marriage is a big deal, have you really thought about it?"
Wu Weian hummed lightly.
Wu Qi: "If your mother were alive, she would have wanted you to marry a woman who loved each other. Do you really like those three girls?"
The three girls from the Ji family are indeed very good everywhere, and this marriage is the one who has taken the lead in the Wu family.
But he knew who his son was, and it was all too casual.
This marriage always feels like a child's play.
The Wu family's study is very small, and the candles are dimly lit.
Wu Weian sat in a corner, his face hidden in the darkness, and he couldn't see it very clearly.
He lowered his head and gently pulled the corner of his clothes: "The three girls and I are very suitable. It is late at night, I will go back to the room to rest first, and my father will rest early."
Wu Weian came out of the study and headed towards the side courtyard. On the way, he explained to the round-faced steward: "In the next few days, you should go and see if there is a suitable house. It's bigger and more stylish, and it's better to delineate two areas. I live with the three girls, and my father and the others live together."
The round-faced steward took notes carefully and said hello.
Remembering Ji Yunxi's request, Wu Weian added: "By the way, the house should be close to Ji's residence."
The round-faced steward hesitated for a moment: "Young Master, the houses around Ji Mansion are not cheap."
Wu Weian sighed: "You can find it first, within 10,000 taels of gold, it will do."
Then the budget is relatively abundant, and the round-faced steward said, "Yes, son."
The round-faced steward thought to himself, this time the son is in the top one, the three girls have won so much money, and he must have given a lot to his son.
Otherwise, according to the son's behavior, how could he buy a house for 10,000 taels of gold? That young man must have more than ten thousand taels of gold in his hands.
As it is—
The round-faced steward looked at the stables beside him and said, "Sir, I will go to the market tomorrow to pick a sweaty BMW first, what do you think?"
Wu Weian stopped: "Why?"
The round-faced steward looked like 'Young Master, why do you have such a bad memory': "Young Master, you said a few days ago that you wanted to change a horse."
"Oh, this matter." Wu Weian nodded, thought about it, and walked towards the stable.
The thin horse was sleeping standing up, and when he heard the movement, he snorted at the two of them.
This horse is really not easy, and I rely on it for family travel.
The round-faced manager is really a little distressed. Fortunately, some time ago, the sixth master of the Ji family came from time to time to deliver Dabu soup, and sometimes went around to feed the horses.
Therefore, although the horse is thin, it is still healthy after eating the good tonic herbs.
Wu Weian looked at it: "I think this horse is very good, there is no need to change it."
Round face in charge: "?"
Wu Weian reprimanded: "I will be a family man in the future. As a steward, you have to be diligent and thrifty for me, and don't buy this and that, understand?"
Round face in charge: "???"
The author has something to say: Your son is really only 10,000 taels of gold [dog head]

ps: There are always people who are entangled in the appearance of the male protagonist. My copywriting is actually very clear, so I have been too lazy to say it. In this case, let me explain it again. How should I put it? A person's appearance is not only handsome but also ugly. The male protagonist is not handsome, but he is not ugly. That hexagram. And he's in good shape! Good physical strength! Hands are so pretty! This is delicious, darlings! [dog head]
