Chapter 21: Leaving the House (3)
The coachman drove the carriage through the capital, and after a small half a pillar of incense, he heard the sound of "hoo", and the carriage slowly stopped.
Su Miao saw that there was a bustling scene outside the carriage, and all kinds of shops made this street a lot more people, lively shouts, and the sound of people soliciting customers in the hotel was endless.
Su Miao looked at the two maids suspiciously, not knowing what to do here.
Lianxin looked at her young lady with a mysterious face.
"Miss has never been out of the house, I don't know where this is, right?"
Su Miao looked at Lianxin with interest in her eyes and shook her head with her eyes closed, pretending to be profound, Zi Rao also smiled a little helplessly, originally wanted to surprise Miss, but now, looking at Miss's appearance, she knew that she had guessed their thoughts, Lotus Heart, this girl, is really silly and cute, and what are she doing in front of Miss.
Lianxin was still immersed in her proud world, looking at the young lady's apricot eyes with interest, as if encouraging herself, she was even more excited at the moment,
"This is one of the busiest commercial streets in Beijing, where small traders and vendors from all over the country can do some small business. Not to mention some rich businessmen, miss, look at these restaurants, one by one, behind them are all big bosses!"
Su Miao's shop in her previous life was on this street, first it was a small storefront, and then under her own management, it slowly became a famous embroidery building on the most prosperous street in the capital.
Thinking that her hard work was finally burned, Su Miao's mood was extremely complicated.
The two maids didn't notice Su Miao's restrained emotions, and although Zi Rao was extremely disgusted with Lianxin's stupidity, she was still amused by Lianxin's exaggerated body movements.
Su Miao was also pulled out of her memories by the laughter of the two, and when she saw Lianxin gesturing with her hand, she was also embarrassed.
For a while, the atmosphere in the carriage was extremely cheerful.
Zi Rao laughed, rubbed her souring stomach and said to Su Miao: "Miss, listen to me, if this girl Lianxin continues to talk, I won't be able to hold it anymore." ”
The corners of Su Miao's mouth were also a little sour, and she nodded, motioning for Zirao to continue.
"Yesterday the lady told us about opening a shop, we were very concerned, Lianxin and the slave went to find a few of us who are familiar with each other, and often go out with the housekeeper to buy, and asked them if they knew where there was a store for rent or the owner wanted to resell. Unexpectedly, as soon as I asked, the guy told us that there were two shops on this street that we could come and see. ”
Su Miao's positive deserving of the two maids is that she doesn't know what words to use to praise.
"Miss, let's get out of the carriage first. Lian Xin became more and more excited at the thought of seeing the new shop soon, and quickly followed Zirao's words.
Su Miao tried her best to hold back her laughter, Lianxin, this girl, she really had to let Zirao take care of it, and her temperament became more and more out-of-tant.
"Good. ”
Lian Xin got permission, quickly lifted the curtain of the carriage and jumped out, standing on the ground and stretching out her hands to Su Miao,
"Miss, I'll help you. ”
Su Miao was really helpless about this girl's temperament, and with Zirao's support, she slowly got up with her skirt and walked out of the carriage.
Zirao first got out of the car with the wheel, and then asked the coachman to bring the low stool he stepped on and put it in front of the carriage.
Only then did he turn around and glared at Lianxin: "Next time you do this, I will let Miss not take you out of the house." ”
Lianxin's aggrieved pout.
Su Miao also got out of the carriage with the help of Zirao.
"Miss, I'll ask the coachman to get up and wait for us, you and Lianxin go forward first, Lianxin also knows the place. ”
"Good. ”
Su Miao and Lian Xincai went forward together. The streets are full of people, and the morning market is lined with vegetable vendors, who occupy a small street because there is no explicit ban.
In addition to this street, the rest of the vegetable market is behind this street. The vegetable market over there is usually a place for some people from lower than average families.
After walking a few steps, Lianxin cautiously raised her eyes to look at her young lady, and saw that there was nothing wrong with the young lady's faint face hidden behind the veil, so she asked in a voice,
"Miss isn't angry with the slave, is she?"
Su Miao couldn't help but laugh, where did this girl come from so much careful thinking, how could she see that she was angry with her, but she still replied in a cold voice.
"I'm angry. Do you know what your own fault is?"
Lianxin knew that she was wrong, and blinked her eyes weakly, "The slave will pay attention to her own temperament in the future." ”
Su Miao saw that Lianxin still knew her own problems, and she didn't want to treat her temperament ruthlessly, if she was forced to lose her edges and corners, she would not be a living person.
At that moment, he softened his voice, paused, looked at Lian Xin and said: "I don't blame you, it's just that your temperament is sometimes too jumpy, but when no one is by your side, you don't know how to converge, and the trouble comes from the mouth." What if something happens one day and I'm not with you?"
Lianxin nodded, "The slave knows, the young lady doesn't blame the slave, right?"
Listening to the hope in Lianxin's tone, Su Miao smiled and stretched out her hand and nodded her forehead: "What do I blame you for? Usually you are by my side, isn't it just a pistachio?"
When Lianxin heard Su Miao's words, her face was overjoyed.
As soon as the two finished talking, Zirao followed.
So the three of them walked to the first store together.
Zi Rao didn't forget to introduce Su Miao to the side: "Miss, the first place we are going to is a teahouse, the owner of the shop is a newlywed couple, the two of them want to move to Jiangnan to live for a few years, and the shop is not worried about letting others take care of it, so they plan to rent it out." ”
Su Miao hasn't seen the shopkeeper yet, and she doesn't know the specific requirements of the shopkeeper at the moment, it's okay to rent, and when her business grows bigger in the future, she will definitely set up an additional storefront, and if you rent it, you can save some money.
The store was very close, and while Zi Rao was talking, the three of them had already arrived, and as soon as they entered the teahouse, a little woman with a ruddy face and a smile greeted them.
"Do you want to drink tea, sit inside. ”
Su Miao followed the little woman's guide to go inside, looked around, and carefully observed the situation of this teahouse, the environment is quite elegant and quiet, and the area is still quite large, with two floors, but the owner of the shop is designed and placed according to the appearance of the teahouse, if he rents it, it must be greatly changed, and I don't know if the owner can agree.
Su Miao and the three of them were guided by the little woman to a private room, Su Miao sat on the stool, thanked her, ordered a cup of tea, and the little woman turned around and retreated.
Zi Rao stood behind Su Miao and asked, "What does Miss think of this house?"
Su Miao untied the veil, "The environment is still good, and the rest has to wait until the boss negotiates." ”
At this time, just now the little woman came in with a smile and tea, and as soon as she pushed the door, she saw Su Miao, who was sitting elegantly with the veil off, and was stunned for a moment, just now I didn't know that this young lady was so good-looking, wearing a light-colored light summer dress that seemed to be incomparably compatible with her own teahouse. The little woman sighed in her heart, this is definitely not a young lady from a small family.
In a flash, his mind flashed in a moment, and he walked steadily in front of Su Miao and put down the tea.
"Miss is the noble person of our store, the first customer of today!"
The corners of Su Miao's mouth twitched, in the early morning, who would be so active in drinking tea.
Still replied with a smile: "I just entered the store, and I saw you alone, are the guys in the store dismissed?"
The little woman stared at the curling white mist coming out of the teacup, and was stunned for a moment, not knowing why Su Miao asked like this.
"Yes, we wanted to rent out the shop, so we broke up the guys. ”
Su Miao looked at the little woman with a smile: "I came here for this matter, and I want to talk to the owner of this teahouse about renting this shop." You must be the hostess. ”
The little woman's face suddenly became a little shy: "Yes." ”
Su Miao looked at her blushing face and smiled: "Haven't you asked your lady for your surname?"
The little woman looked at Su Miao and replied, "My husband and I have the same surname, surnamed Dong." ”
Seeing that Mrs. Dong suddenly became cheerful again, Su Miao was also surprised by this lady's temperament.
Su Miao clarified her intention: "Mrs. Dong, it's like this,
I want to do a small business in a shop, and I happened to hear from a friend that your teahouse is for rent, so I'm going to take a look today.
I just came this way, and I think the environment of your teahouse is very good, but I may change the layout of the building if I rent this building, I don't know if you can accept it. ”
Mrs. Dong listened, her face was a little difficult, and she didn't know what to decide.
This Mrs. Dong is also a cheerful character, and her husband have been childhood sweethearts since childhood, this teahouse is also a young couple who worked hard to run out, plus, today's folk customs are still quite open, and there are no strict legal regulations for women's appearances, so there is the scale of today's teahouse.
Mrs. Dong was not surprised that Su Miaojie wanted to do some small business.
But this shop was personally arranged by himself and his father-in-law, and if it was to be changed, it was still a little reluctant.
Su Miao saw Mrs. Dong's embarrassment, and she was no longer reluctant, her slender fingers took a sip of the tea in front of her, and the taste amazed her.
"Mrs. Dong doesn't have to be embarrassed, the taste and taste of your tea are very good. ”
Su Miao alleviated Mrs. Dong's embarrassment, and as soon as the topic changed, Mrs. Dong could pick up the conversation.
Mrs. Dong felt soothed and said with a smile: "Our family's tea roasting technology is first-class." ”
Su Miao talked to Mrs. Dong a few more words, and also got up to say goodbye.
Mrs. Dong has traveled from south to north over the years, and it is rare to see such an insightful and talkative boudoir lady, and she is still a little unfinished at the moment.
But when he learned that Su Miao still had something to do, he reluctantly let Su Miao leave.
Su Miao took the two maids to say goodbye to Mrs. Dong, put on the veil again, and walked outside the teahouse, a little pity: "Let's go to the next one." ”
