Ru Xia was only halfway through speaking, and Ru Qiu was dizzy, feeling that she was about to faint, but fortunately, she was sitting on the couch.
How could this be? How could this be? Ruqiu's heart was like a knife, she was still here waiting for Rudong and Yin Zhiruo to take the bait, waiting for Rudong to bring her wealth and an increasingly stable position in the Hou Mansion, but the other side had already seen through her calculations? What is this? They watched her jump knowingly? It's like watching a harlequin on the stage bouncing and somersaulting?
Ruxia sighed: "According to Rudong's original temperament, since she has promised you, she shouldn't say it, and she can't think of so many twists and turns, so she will only send you back the purse." It's a pity that you're unlucky, when your people sent the purse over, Rudong happened to be waiting in front of the girl, and Ruchun was also there. ”
"How is that possible?" Ruqiu blurted out, "My maid can hear it clearly, Rudong herself told the shopkeeper, although she is still Yin Zhiruo's personal maid, she is more like the person they order snacks, and there is almost no time to wait in front of Yin Zhiruo." "Rudong is not a liar, and she doesn't know that someone is eavesdropping, so there is no need to lie.
Ruxia smiled bitterly: "You still don't know Rudong, for her, if the time spent waiting in front of the girl is less than one or two hours or even half a day, it will become 'almost no time'." When Rudong was ten years old, her mother was seriously ill, and the county lord of Qianxin asked her to send her to Zhuangzi to take care of her mother, until her mother was gone, less than two months before and after, but when it came to her mouth, it became "I haven't been with the girl for half a year." ”
Ruqiu was stunned for a moment, and unconsciously bit her lower lip, her face was bitter, one wrong step, and she lost all the games. Now, how is she going to explain to the Hou Ye and Mrs. Tai? Mrs. Tai has a dowry shop in a very good location, which has been rented to a merchant who sells porcelain furnishings, and the contract expired at the beginning of this month, but she did not renew the contract, but took back the shop and prepared to open a pastry shop.
Ruxia also knew about Mrs. Qiu's repossession of the shop, and at that time, Ruqiu told her in high spirits, "Everything is ready, only the east wind is owed." ”
"Actually, you don't have to open a pastry shop," Ruxia said softly, she thought for a long time on the way here, to get rid of her family's current predicament, she had better cooperate with Ruqiu, with the help of the funds and power of the Qingyuan Marquis Mansion. Except for Ruqiu, their family didn't know other rich mansions.
Ruqiu frowned: "It's easy to spend money to open a shop, but how can it be so easy to get silver?" Except for something as novel and unique as a dim sum and pastry.
Ruxia raised her eyebrows, and a smug look flashed in her eyes: "Delicate face Qixiang"
"Jiaoyan Qixiang, ......" Ruqiu's eyes widened in disbelief, "How can you have ......?"
Outsiders don't know what Jiaoyan Qixiang is, but Ruqiu does, thinking of the intoxicating fragrance left by her cousin and grandmother Liu Yun, in addition to the silver of white flowers, there is also Qiu Yiran's blazing gaze.
However, how could Ruxia have the formula of Jiaoyan Qixiang, I heard that it was the exclusive formula passed down by Liu Yunzu, before Liu Yun married to the Ming State Mansion, it was said that he would give the secret recipe to the county lord of Qianxin, as a thank you gift for living in the general's mansion for many years, but unfortunately the county lord of Qianxin declined.
Ruxia had already said it, and she wasn't ready to hide it, even if she said that it was given to her by Liu Yun, Ruqiu couldn't believe it, right?
It turned out that after the county lord of Qianxin politely rejected Liu Yun's secret recipe, Liu Yun quietly found Yin Zhiruo and insisted on giving the secret recipe to Zhiruo, saying that it was her cousin's makeup in advance. Zhiruo knew that her mother refused, so she naturally refused to take advantage of her cousin, but she had always been soft-hearted, she did not refuse in person, but let Ruxia burn it directly as soon as Liu Yun left. Laughing at a piece of paper copied with a secret recipe, don't you have to burn it? It also made Ruchun and Ruxia, who were by her side at the time, keep their mouths shut.
Ruqiu stared at Ruxia tightly: "You hid it, didn't burn it?" This Ruxia has always been very well-behaved, and she can't see it, two or three years ago, she dared to violate yin and yang, and hide secret recipes, and she was not small.
Ruxia's eyes flashed: "I just thought it was a pity to burn it at that time, and Cousin Liu's grandmother has been eating and drinking in the house for so many years, so it is also appropriate to dedicate the formula of 'Jiaoyan Qixiang'." She really thought so at the time, and thought that if the girl needed it in the future, wouldn't she have made a great contribution if she took it out again?
Until today, when she came back from Meizhuang, she was cranky along the way, jealous Rudong Although she was stupid, she had mastered the recipe to make money, and somehow, she suddenly remembered the secret recipe that she had almost forgotten in her early years in the Ping'an Mansion she had carried with her.
Ruqiu Yanran smiled: "Naturally, it's a pity, thanks to the fact that you kept a hand at that time, this is really a way to make money." When Liu Yun first entered Beijing to live in the General's Mansion, she also sent two boxes of configured "Jiaoyan Qixiang" balm to Yin Zhiruo, they all smelled it, it was indeed very fragrant, a very feminine and soft taste, and the fragrance stayed on the body for a long time. If they can really make "delicate face seven fragrances", why worry about the silver not rolling in? Well, it should be much more than the pastry shop.
From a six- or seven-year-old girl to a sixty-year-old lady, what woman does not love incense? Even if a woman from a poor family cannot afford to buy perfumes and incense, she still picks a fragrant flower and wears it on her body and head.
If the Ming Mansion was still there, and Liu Yun was still the favorite concubine of the Ming Prince, they really didn't dare to use that secret recipe to make incense and sell it, but now, whether it was the Ming Kingdom Prince's Son or Liu Yun, they would have been reincarnated a long time ago, right? Haha, God is helping her!
The more I thought about it, the more excited I became, Ruqiu immediately decided: "You come up with the prescription, and our Hou Mansion is responsible for the rest, and I will fight for you in front of the Hou Ye, so that your family can get two percent of the profits, and you can also work in the shop and workshop to get moon silver." Ruxia, where did you hide the recipe, can you send it over early tomorrow morning?uh...... No, let Mama Zhang go back with you to get it. "Mrs. Zhang is now her most trusted 'own person' in the Hou Mansion.
Ruxia blocked herself by the action of drinking tea, pursed her lips, put down the teacup and smiled sweetly: "I hid the recipe very well, so naturally I won't put it at home." Sister Ruqiu, don't worry, this cooperation is a big deal, I can't do it myself, so I'd better wait for my father to negotiate the contract with you. You also know that my father knows a lot of stewards in the mansion of the great family in Beijing, and there are two big stewards who have come to run errands recently, and my dad accompanies him, so he may not be able to spare time for a while. ”
Ruqiu was stunned for a moment, and secretly gritted her teeth, she almost forgot that the Rudong in front of her was not a tendon, and the Niu family, although they were only civilians, but the Niu San couple were both shrewd, and they did know many high-ranking officials and nobles because of their previous relationship in the Zhenbei General's Mansion.
