"Heh, this girl really doesn't know what's good for her!" The surrounding crowd couldn't help but let out a sigh. "How many people want to go but still can't do it? A heaven-shaking pie is falling on her head, and she actually doesn't want it?"
"I think that after following an idiot for so long, you've also become an idiot yourself!"
Jin Xiaolou did not care about those noisy chatter at all. She was only planning to get rich and earn five hundred silver to buy the second floor building that she liked.
With regards to the Jin Family, the twists and turns between Jin Xiaotao and herself, had nothing to do with him.
In these three days in the county, Jin Xiaolou had spent all the silver she had earned a few days ago, so she wanted to gamble a lot.
Either they would lose everything and start over, or the serfs would sing and take the first steps to get rich!
Jin Xiaolou bought a large amount of beef and potatoes, and wrapped them around an old blacksmith to make a bunch of round iron boxes for her. Tomorrow, she would go to Carpenter Sun's house to make a cork that matched the boxes.
In modern times, she had heard of the invention of cans.
Napoleon was troubled by the inconvenience of transporting food during the war, so he paid a high price to transport convenient and conserved food, and there was canned food.
Now that the South Yi had attacked, fighting at the borders, for the soldiers of the Great Zhou, what they were most troubled about was still the matter of food.
That day, when she was in the county city and saw the food transport carriages one by one, Jin Xiaolou realized that she was going to let the canned food that she invented in Europe in the eighteenth century appear in her present Great Zhou!
Although Great Zhou already has Glazed Glass, Glazed Glass was still currently still a valuable item used by the Imperial Family. Jin Xiaolou had no way of making cans with glass boxes that were most beneficial to the preservation of food, but the metal boxes were not bad either. As long as the cans were made into metal boxes, they could be kept for more than three months.
If he succeeded in this, he would be able to sell it on the frontlines. Jin Xiaolou estimated that she would definitely be able to earn five hundred silver taels.
Just as Jin Xiaolou stepped into the courtyard, Jin Xiaotao followed suit.
Jin Xiaotao tugged on Jin Xiaolou's sleeves: "Think about it again, don't say you're mad at me."
After finishing her sentence, she walked in front of Jin Xiaolou, blocking her way, and continued: "Lou, think about Lin'er, Lin'er is in the Residence of He, if you go with me, you will see Lin'er everyday."
Jin Xiaolou originally did not want to bother with Jin Xiaotao, she only felt that the potato in her hands was heavy. After she fulfilled her small goal of paying five hundred silver taels, she would open a unique and unique shop in Great Zhou Country, and would earn a lot from it.
But when she heard the name Lin'er, Jin Xiaolou regained her senses.
In Golden Fragrance's hands, if Jin Xiaotao married into the He Residence, then the Lin'er would no longer have much use for the Jin Family. Even if the Madame Wu wanted to use the Lin'er to earn some money, I'm afraid Jin Xiaotao would not be willing to raise another person's son.
It seems like it's time to think of a way to bring Lin'er back.
But even if she wanted to take over Lin'er, Jin Xiaolou would think of a way, and would not get involved with Jin Xiaotao at all.
Regarding people like Jin Xiaotao, how far did Jin Xiaolou want to go?
Seeing how Jin Xiaoluo was still calm, she ignored him and walked around him. Her eyes focused as her lips pressed down, her voice slightly raised with worry, but there was a trace of complacency in her voice, "Xiaolou, Lin'er is so young, yet she is left alone in front of Golden Fragrance and in the large House of He, don't you worry that something will happen to him?
Seeing Jin Xiaolou suddenly stop and turn her head, Jin Xiaotao's expression lit up. She laughed amiably and continued to speak: "I'm going to marry into He Residence today, and I will immediately be able to see Lin'er. Don't worry, if you don't want to go with me, as your big sister, I will definitely take good care of Lin'er for you."
The daylight was moving up inch by inch, the bright sunlight shined on Jin Xiaotao's new wedding dress, turning it a glaring red.
A button made by a shellfish was pinned to the collar of her wedding dress, like a snowflake falling on the heart of a bright red plum blossom.
Jin Xiaolou tapped the potato in her hand, her fingernails rough.
Jin Xiaotao would not have any good intentions, this was an obvious threat.
The entourage that had engaged the mansion only arrived four hours later.
Jin Xiaofeng and Jin Xiaolou stood behind Jin Xiaotao alone, quietly waiting for the wedding procession.
However, what they were waiting for was a small sedan chair carried by four people. Next to the sedan was a bridal sedan with two firecrackers in front. They were shaking their heads and making babbling noises.
"This, this is a marriage within County Magistrate Mansion? "No matter how you look at it, it would be worse than having a wife!"
Jin Xiaotao was disgraced, but in her heart, she was unwilling to lower herself to the same level as these countryside bumpkins.
As long as one could enter the County Magistrate Mansion door, who cares how one went in? Even if he was going to marry barefooted today, in the future, he would still make others envious and covetous.
As soon as the firecrackers were released, Jin Xiaotao raised her hand and quickly supported her. The red veil had already been covered, and when Jin Xiaotao took a step forward, she turned her head and said to Jin Xiaolou who was beside him: "Little Lou, the road is muddy, it's not good to dye the bridal dress with dirt, why don't you help me lift my skirt."
Just as Jin Xiaolou was about to bend down, she was struck by Gao Lang who was rushing out. If not for Jin Xiaofeng holding his tightly, the bride would have been smashed to the ground before she could even leave the room.
"My wife, I want to go as well!"
Gao Lang pestered Jin Xiaolou tightly, both of his hands twisting around her shoulders: "Marrying a new wife is so interesting, I also want to go and watch the show."
The wedding lady threw the red handkerchief at him. "Where did this fool come from, hurry up and chase him away! Who can afford to delay time? "
The Madame Wu immediately waved her hand and ordered Jin Lei and Jin Shun to carry Gao Lang away. Unexpectedly, Gao Lang's strength was extraordinary, and he forcefully pulled Jin Xiaolou away, not letting him go.
There was no other way, Jin Xiaotao had no choice but to let Jin Xiaofeng carry him onto the sedan, Jin Xiaolou and Gao Lang followed behind them.
There were three carriages at the entrance of the village. The servants took their dowry and sat in one, the bride and groom sat in another, and the rest of the family members of Jin Family sat in another.
Because the location was really limited, Jin Xiaotao indicated that she wanted Jin Xiaolou to follow them. Jin Xiaolou even brought a tall and big Gao Lang along, and so only Madame Wu and her family got on the carriage.
Madame Zhou squeezed herself into the middle of the crowd and looked at the horse carriage swaying away into the distance, before fiercely spitting on the ground.
After bumping for some time, Jin Xiaolou was almost knocked out. Just when she could not take it anymore and wanted to fall into Gao Lang's arms, the carriage stopped.
When he lifted the curtain, he saw a black wooden door in front of him. There was a small letter of joy attached to the door.
From the looks of it, it wasn't even the side door. It was just a side door for a servant girl to enter.
The nanny brought Jin Xiaotao out and beckoned the maid to go ahead. Jin Xiaofeng and Jin Xiaolou followed her and supported him as they walked through the side door, past the walls of the corridor and into the main hall.
The Old Master He and Justice were dressed in dark blue robes, and were sitting straight at the head of the main hall. They did not have any expression on their face, and were neither happy nor angry, but were handling a case impartially, as if He Guangkun, who was standing at the side, and Jin Xiaotao, who was about to arrive, were two criminals.
Beside the Old Master He was Madam Zhi Xia, He Guangkun's birth mother and wife, and Meng Guangmei.
With just a glance, Jin Xiaolou knew that this woman was not someone to be trifled with.
Just as expected, just as Jin Xiaotao stepped into the main hall, she spoke to his wife: "You're here? Kneel! "
Jin Xiaotao was good at acting. She didn't say anything, nor did she ask anything.
Jin Xiaofeng was not a brainless person, after seeing Jin Xiaotao kneel down on her knees, she also knelt behind her, lowering herself by two people. Only Jin Xiaolou was still standing upright, and for a moment, everyone in the hall looked towards her.
"It's you!" The first one to speak was He Guangkun. When he saw Jin Xiaolou, his head buzzed for a moment, but he did not expect to see this girl again, on the day of their wedding.
Jin Xiaolou was only wearing a plain pink dress and standing next to the bride-to-be, she looked even more elegant, as if she was a wind that had just blossomed in spring.
He Guangkun regretted marrying Jin Xiaotao, and was glad that she was only a concubine.
She was covered by her head and did not know what had happened. However, the words "it's you" made Jin Xiaotao feel a little apprehensive, could it be that she and her young master had recognized Jin Xiaolou?
Hadn't he already forgotten her?
"Your young miss is already kneeling, why aren't you kneeling?" He then frowned with Madam Ye. The girl before him was still standing there without moving. It was as if a nail had been hammered into her heart, causing her to feel vexed.
Jin Xiaolou was neither humble nor arrogant, and replied indifferently: "She is not my young mistress, I am her younger sister, but I came here to eat wedding wine, and to kneel down while eating wedding wine? I've never heard of such a thing. "
