Chapter 37: Disguise
Baifu, the little maid retreated from the house lightly. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Wen Hui pulled her aside and asked softly, "How is it?"
The little maid said tremblingly, "Mother Wang asked me to come out...... Madam...... Madame didn't say anything. ”
Wen Hui listened carefully, there were only small and fragmented voices in the room, and she couldn't hear anything clearly, it was a bit like the calm before the storm, and her heart hung up involuntarily, and she didn't know what kind of blame Miss Seven would suffer when she came back......
Bai Qiyu had already taken Wen Ying into the carriage and talked and laughed with Xu Suxin.
"Does your grandmother really like my fragrance?" Bai Qiyu chuckled.
Xu Suxin replied seriously, "Of course it's true, how can I lie to Mrs. Bai?"
"Whether it's true or not, I made my mother angry when I came out this time...... I should still worry about how to deal with the undercurrent when I go back......"
The two talked and laughed for a while, and Xu Suxin took two clothes out, "Quickly change into this." ”
Bai Qiyu was dumbfounded, this is obviously the costume of the young master of everyone's son! It's not that he hasn't worn it, but when this situation suddenly appeared at this moment, Bai Qiyu was inevitably surprised.
Xu Suxin touched her with his arm, "If you don't change your clothes, how dare I blatantly take you to the street?"
Bai Qiyu smiled, "It's not like I haven't done this kind of thing. At the moment, he changed into the man's robe, removed the bead ornaments on his hair, scattered the long hair, pulled it into a man's bun, and put a simple jasper.
Looking at Xu Suxin again, he changed his outfit from head to toe, and he also looked handsome as a man, Bai Qiyu teased, "Brother Xu." ”
"Seventh brother. Xu Suxin also called him seriously, and both of them laughed.
The carriage drove up the bustling street, and Bai Qiyu already had a guess in his heart, "Are you going to take me to see the store?"
Xu Suxin nodded, "Look at the shop and go shopping by the way, you can't come to Beijing and not go anywhere, right?"
Bai Qiyu thought about it, but the key is that there is such a person in the family who hates her so much that she is watching, where can she be free.
Xu Suxin lifted the curtain and glanced at it, "Turn around and walk straight for a while." ”
After another quarter of an hour, the carriage stopped, the two got out of the carriage, and Bai Qiyu glanced at the carriage behind.
"Where's Moonyoung?"
"They don't have to come down, they have their own little servants to follow. ”
Bai Qiyu didn't say anything more, and looked at the shop in front of him.
Xu Suxin smiled and groaned, "How is it?"
On the bustling main street, not far from the crossroads, the location is excellent, the shop is spacious and bright, and there are workers finishing and decorating.
"Let's go see the backyard?"
"Don't worry, the backyard is very good, and the environment is also very good......" Xu Suxin said as he bypassed the screen in the shop and walked to the backyard.
Sure enough, it lives up to Bai Qiyu's expectations, although the backyard is small, but it is exquisite, the layout of flowers, trees, mountains and stones is exquisite, and the view is pleasing to the eye, but it is like a miniature garden.
"Brother Xu's vision is excellent!" Bai Qiyu said with a slightly mocking tone.
"You must know that this is an acquaintance's price!" Xu Suxin raised his eyebrows proudly.
Bai Qiyu said again, "According to the decoration I said, install the glass lamp, and the goods will be available at the end of the month...... The backyard is divided into two rooms and comes out to decorate it...... Find a few more clever girls......"
Xu Suxin wrote down everything Bai Qiyu said, and instructed the shopkeeper to do it, but he didn't ask much.
Bai Qiyu continued, "I'm afraid that these are not enough...... Let's prepare later......"
At the moment, I told her my thoughts in detail, nothing more than how to recommend beauty products to those customers who came to the door, make regular maintenance such as facial masks, and so on. Hearing Xu Suxin's face full of doubts, he asked, "Is this really possible?" and "Will this work?"
Bai Qiyu chuckled, "You just believe me, you can't be wrong to keep it." ”
To say that Bai Qiyu can't do business, that's the truth, but no matter what time it is, women love beauty, and women's money is also the best to earn, which Bai Qiyu is still very clear.
"When the store opens, you have to make good use of your connections in Beijing and make it known first, preferably to the women in the rich circle. When this business is booming, we will open a new business!"
Bai Qiyu has been thinking a lot about it since he started planning to do business, as long as the first step is good, the rest will be very simple.
Xu Suxin was surprised, "Do you want to do other business?"
"It's a secret!" Bai Qiyu pretended to smile mysteriously, "Let's do a good job of this shop first, and you'll know when the time comes." ”
"By the way, this store hasn't been named yet, you can think about it. ”
There is already a well-known fat powder business in Beijing called Hongfange, and he mainly does the fragrance business......
Bai Qiyu suddenly had a flash of inspiration, remembering the famous sentence "The flower gas strikes people and knows the warmth, and the magpie voice pierces the bamboo to know the new sunshine", and couldn't help laughing, "Let's call it 'Raiding People's Fang'! We are mainly engaged in the fragrance business, and naturally the fragrance strikes people." ”
I decided on the name, and I was worried about who would write it.
Xu Suxin waved his hand generously, "It's not simple, I'll just go back and ask my father to write it." ”
"This can't be done," Bai Qiyu objected, "Although the signboard written by your father is more eye-catching, your father's fame is too great, and we can't be too high-profile, so it's better not to involve them in this business." ”
Bai Qiyu was very insistent, Xu Suxin had to give up, "Then who will write it?"
"How is Xia Gongzi?" Bai Qiyu blurted out.
"That's a good idea! I'll do it. ”
After looking at the store, Xu Suxin said, "Are you hungry?" ”
The Drunken Immortal Building is the first floor of the capital, it is the common place for the banquet of the nobles and hundreds of officials in Beijing, the most famous is the wine that is called the 'Drunken Eight Immortals', of course, the dishes are also excellent. When Bai Qiyu came to Beijing for the first time, he naturally only heard of his name.
abandoned the car and hiked, Xu Suxin only called two small servants to follow.
Bai Qiyu looked at the drunken immortal building in front of him, which was five stories high, carved beams and paintings, exquisite and luxurious, and had to sigh, it was worthy of being the first floor in the capital! If it wasn't for the fact that it couldn't be higher than the sacrificial platform in the palace, I was afraid that it would have to be a few more floors higher.
Bai Qiyu followed Xu Suxin straight up to the third floor.
The first floor is the lobby, the second floor is the private seat, the third floor is the private room, and the third floor and above the third floor may not be able to go to the general public.
Xu Suxin set the Spring Rain Pavilion named after the four seasons, the second room due east.
This drunken immortal building is really magnificent, the inside is more luxurious than the outside, the people who can come here are either rich or expensive, up and down are all silk and satin, Bai Qiyu and the two of them are a little too low-key to dress up a little conspicuous.
However, looking at Xu Suxin's appearance, he should be familiar with this place, after all, he grew up in Beijing, and he casually ordered seven or eight signature dishes.
Bai Qiyu hesitated, "It doesn't have to be so much, right? ”
Xu Suxin teased her funny, "Don't worry, I won't move the money for business!"
Knowing that it was a joke, Bai Qiyu also laughed, but sighed secretly in his heart, in his original life, he seemed to have always been simple and accustomed to it, and when he came here, he really couldn't agree with such a luxury waste......
The cousin quickly served the food, the door of the wing room was closed, and the little servant also retreated to the door and waited.
Xu Suxin served her vegetables, "Taste it!
Bai Qiyu looked at the dishes in front of him, his appetite was good, and he began to eat unceremoniously, and suddenly heard her again, "I inquired, the Shunping palace and the official salt case of the year were somewhat involved, although nothing was found in the end, but it has already made the emperor taboo, plus the prince of Shunping is arrogant and domineering, and he has long been notorious in Beijing, and the officials in the DPRK and China are reluctant to make friends with him......"
Speaking of this, Xu Suxin sighed lightly, "I really don't know what your second sister and your mother are thinking about, and they actually want to marry the Shunping Palace......
Bai Qiyu said casually, "Probably they think it's quite good to be a relative of the imperial family!"
"What kind of royal relatives!" Xu Suxin said in a disdainful tone, "It's just the imperial surname!"
Bai Qiyu was startled by these words, and asked in a low voice, "Isn't it the emperor's own brother?"
"So you don't know?" Xu Suxin was surprised.
"The previous Shunping King was originally surnamed Zheng, who followed the first emperor to fight the country, and later the state affairs were stable, and the first emperor read his high merit and loyalty, so he gave the national surname 'Song', named the king of Shunping, hereditary, to the present generation, the Shunping palace has long been decayed......"
Bai Qiyu really doesn't know these things, after all, she is actually not from this world, how can she be clear about the things here, but presumably other people in the Bai Mansion know, if it weren't for the shadow of the Bai family's ancestors, the Bai family would be a rich family in business at best, and now that she can climb to such a high branch as the palace, how can she be regarded as a 'relative of the emperor' in name.
Bai Qiyu couldn't help but smile bitterly, "I don't know if it's the second sister's idea, or the Ding family's idea......"
If there is no Ding family to guide this matter, Bai Qiyu will not believe it anyway, the Shunping Royal Mansion can agree to marry the Bai family, it is impossible for Bai Shuangyu to do it alone.
Xu Suxin glanced at Bai Qiyu appreciatively and said, "You guessed right, although the relationship between the Ding family and the Shunping Royal Mansion is average, the female relatives of the two families often come and go very close...... However, your second sister and your eldest sister don't seem to move around much!"
walked around with the ladies of the palace, but was alienated from his own sister...... Bai Qiyu was helpless, but what did all this have to do with him......
At the moment, he only said, "It's always involuntary to get married......"
He smiled again, "You don't have to worry about me, if I don't want to get married, there is a way." Let's eat it first, it's all cold. ”
Xu Suxin saw that her heart was transparent, so she didn't say more, put aside the topic, and concentrated on tasting the dishes with her.
"Bang Dang"
The sound of broken porcelain from outside startled the two of them, and they were about to continue eating and drinking and ignore it, but there was a knock on the door, and the little maid replied outside that the dishes that the cousin had given to the Spring Rain Pavilion had been knocked over......
Xu Suxin frowned slightly, and said, "Forget it if you knock it over, and get a new ......."
Before he finished speaking, there was a noise and scolding outside the door.
Bai Qiyu glanced at her, "Let's go out and have a look." ”
opened the door, and the two little guys immediately stepped forward and said, "Young Master, it is the son of Lord Wu, the commander-in-chief of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division." ”
It seems to be another.
