Chapter 294: The City Lord's Lady Arrived

Previous Chapter

Walking out of the bedroom of the four houses in the backyard, Rong Yuanhang looked at the time displayed on his watch, it was exactly ten o'clock in the morning. At this time, except for Wang Meng and Yingzi, all the women in the courtyard should have been busy in the store.

When he stepped outside, he saw two containers in the middle of the courtyard. Rong Yuanhang only knew that one of them was empty, and all the goods inside had been emptied.

The open space of the courtyard is not planted with flowers and trees, and there is no rockery fish pond. Maybe because the previous owner was a noodle restaurant, he actually turned this vacant land into a vegetable garden.

Originally, it was full of vegetables, but now that Rong Yuanhang has taken over the store, he will use this place to place containers and use it as a temporary warehouse.

The fourth courtyard is separated from the third courtyard by a two-meter-high blue brick wall. The only exit is a hanging flower gate in the southeast corner. Walking out of the weeping flower gate, you can go straight to the third courtyard where Wang Meng lives.

In addition to the 200-square-meter shop area facing the street, the rest of the house has the same architectural layout. Therefore, at present, Rong Yuanhang lives here, which is the most hidden courtyard. He could go directly through the third, second, and first courtyards to the store.

The view is obscured by a cloister, and there is no direct view of the courtyard from the other side of the door, unless you walk inside. Therefore, Rong Yuanhang can safely put out the container in the storage space, and then put the other empty container inside. Such a replacement action, even the grandmother Wang Meng, who lives in the third courtyard, does not know the situation.

After replacing the container, Rong Yuanhang didn't even change into this modern clothes, and just walked out like this. As soon as he stepped out of the weeping flower door, he happened to see Wang Meng and Yingzi coming out of the door, and they were standing under the eaves.

Wang Meng's sharp gaze looked over here, Rong Yuanhang's heart tightened, and he squeezed out a smile to greet: "Morning, grandaunt, are you going out?" ”

"Well, go out and run some errands." Wang Meng nodded and asked, "Yuanhang, where did you go last night?" ”

For this kind of question, Rong Yuanhang was already prepared in his heart, he deliberately smiled hippie, pretended to be embarrassed, smiled, rubbed his hands and said, "Hehe, last night...... I went to eat flower wine in the green building. ”

As soon as these words were spoken, Yingzi, who was standing beside Wang Meng, rolled his eyes for a while, and said with disdain in his heart: It's really a dead nature!

Wang Meng also frowned and said: "The wine hurts the body, and at the same time it also consumes people's will. Voyage, that kind of dirty place, you better go less! ”

"Well, well, I will, Grandma." Rong Yuanhang responded perfunctorily.

"If you really need a woman, can't your newly married concubine Jing Ruxia satisfy you?"

Wang Meng questioned and said: "Those women in Flower Street and Willow Lane are all a little red lip and ten thousand people taste the color, no matter what kind of good skin they have, they can't get rid of dirt and filth!" You slept with those women for a night, and you don't know how much evil you were contaminated. Voyage, on your terms, what kind of woman do you want? Why should we be willing to fall? ”

"Grandma has taught me a lesson." Rong Yuanhang looked low-eyebrowed, but there was no shame on his face.

"Humph!" Wang Meng gave him a blank look with some disgust, and then turned around and walked outside with Yingzi......

After the two of them went, Rong Yuanhang exhaled and asked himself: "Is it too unwise for me to make her hate her like this?" ”

But Wang Meng was not around, and his whole body was relaxed.

……

Walking out of the store, I saw Xiao Xue, Sha Miaoying, Lan Xitian, Lang Yue, Jiumei and other five people were there, but I didn't see Qihong.

The layout of the 200-square-meter store is a bit like a self-selected store in the modern world. Many products are displayed in display cases and vanity cabinets, and large glass mirror inlays are used on the walls around the store.

The entire store was designed by Rong Yuanhang himself. There are only three types of goods sold in the store: mirrors, lighters, and tea sets, but there are many different styles and various items that can be sold throughout the store. However, it seems that the goods are dazzling and brightly lit, and they can be regarded as beautiful and novel.

So after opening for more than half a month, this store called Xianyang Qizhen also has a small reputation on Qianzu Street. On weekdays, it attracts a lot of people to visit, and as soon as those customers come in, their performance is often jaw-dropping for a while.

In particular, the large-format glass mirror installed on the wall, as soon as those people entered the door, they seemed to realize what an incredible thing they were, and they stood in front of the mirror in a daze.

There are also women who come in in groups of three or five people, but they don't buy anything but to look in the mirror. The array of goods in the store: a makeup mirror sold for 1,000 taels of gold, and a set of tea sets sold for 2,000 taels of gold! This price scared away most people. Even many people are shocked by it,—— this is too expensive!

"Helper," the ninth sister saw Rong Yuanhang suddenly walk in, and she hurriedly owed a debt.

There were still a few customers in the store, and although Lan Xitian and Jiu Mei saw him, they were busy greeting these customers and didn't bother to say hello. Sha Miaoying stood at the door, like a statue, watching the people on the street with her hands crossed.

"You're coming?" Xiao Xue smiled at him.

"Hmm." Rong Yuanhang nodded carelessly, walked to Xiao Xue's side at the cash register, and sat lazily on the modern beach chair next to him.

He turned his back to Xiao Xue, but the way the two got along like friends, and the two sides didn't feel that it was a rude move. Xiao Xue asked softly again, "Have you had breakfast?" Do you want me to get you some? ”

"I'm not hungry." Rong Yuanhang waved his hand. Glancing coldly at the customers who were picking up merchandise in the store, he took out a nail clipper from the storage space in his boredom and actually trimmed his nails.

"Sister Xue, have you had any big orders recently?" Rong Yuanhang asked casually while trimming his nails.

Xiao Xue said: "No, since it opened for half a month, except for the big order of Princess Gao Shichun. The rest are sold in bulk, and a day sells millions of gold goods. By the way, early this morning, when you were away, a few Karen guests bought five hundred treasure mirrors at once. ”

"Oh. Not bad. "Rong Yuanhang doesn't pay much attention to this kind of 'small business'.

At this time, Xiao Xue moved a chair closer to him and whispered, "Let me help you get your nails trimmed, right?" As he spoke, he reached over to take the nail clipper.

Rong Yuanhang shrank his hand and said, "How embarrassing is this, everyone is watching." ”

Several women in the store knew that Xiao Xue was Rong Yuanhang's mother-in-law, and her rank was higher than him. If you do a manicure for a junior, it will be a little strange in the eyes of others.

Xiao Xue also understood, she smiled and said: "Then I'll call a girl to repair it for you, your identity is different, there must be someone to serve you" Speaking ......of this, she raised her eyes and looked, just as the ninth sister was standing not far away, so she shouted: "Ninth sister, come here...... Trim the young master's manicure. ”

"Hey." The ninth sister agreed with a smile, walked over and knelt beside Rong Yuanhang obediently, and said, "Helper, let your subordinates come down." ”

Rong Yuanhang handed her the pliers and said, "Ninth sister, don't call me 'helper' in the future." Call it the young master, this sounds good. ”

The ninth sister was stunned for a moment, and then replied with a smile: "Hey, young master." Hehe......"

She was delicate, holding Rong Yuanhang's hand and carefully trimming her excessively long nails, and then asked, "Help...... Young master, by the way, let the slave maid repair your toenails, right? ”

"Okay, thank you." Rong Yuanhang was not polite to her.

The ninth sister moved and moved her position, squatted in front of him, picked up a foot and put it on her leg, took off his leather shoes and socks for him, and then used her finger pliers to trim her nails......

Rong Yuanhang secretly enjoyed, the service of the ninth sister is really considerate. However, he didn't care about the eyes of others, because in this kind of social environment, it was commonplace and common for servants to serve their masters like this.

"Young master, a lot of guests came to ask: Where did you buy the kind of clothes we wore when we opened?" The ninth sister's voice was sweet, and while giving him a manicure, she initiated a topic to chat with him.

"Really? How do you answer them? ”

"The slave doesn't know how to tell them, and she always wants to tell you about it."

Rong Yuanhang looked at her feet and said with a smile: "It turns out that you are still wearing these high root shoes?" ”

The ninth sister was a little embarrassed and said: "These shoes are beautiful, so the slave family wears them every day." By the way, there are also a lot of female customers who come in and ask, where are the shoes I wear, hehe, I told them that they have nothing to sell anywhere! ”

At this time, Xiao Xue also replied: "Yuanhang, are the goods in our store too single?" Why don't you get some tissues, toothbrushes, and some kind of shower gel and shampoo that I use? ”

Rong Yuanhang moved his body and changed to a more comfortable posture, and then replied: "Forget it, that kind of thing can't make a lot of money." Let's keep it for our own use. ”

At this time, Lan Xitian sent the customer away, she came over with a cup of warm tea, and seemed to casually glance at the ninth sister who was manicuring Rong Yuanhang's nails, but there was a trace of envy in her eyes.

"Helper, you drink saliva." A cup of tea was delivered to Rong Yuanhang.

"yes, okay." Rong Yuanhang took a sip of the teacup, and was looking for a place to put the cup, but Lan Xitian reached out and took it.

The ninth sister raised her head and said, "Lord Lanxiang, young master, he said it, let us call us 'young master' in the future, not 'helper'." ”

"Oh?" Lan Xitian glanced at Rong Yuanhang in surprise. The latter nodded: "Well, that's what it looks like." 'Gang leader' Now that I have no name, the Long Knife Gang has been returned to Lei Ding, as for this Xianyang Gang, let's talk about it when it is officially established. Now, I treat you as family, so everyone still calls me 'Young Master'. ”

When Lan Xitian heard this, he hurriedly replied, "Yes, young master." ”

The three women chatted around Rong Yuanhang for a while, and the ninth sister suddenly said, "It's time for me to go and have lunch...... Why hasn't Sister Yihong come back yet? ”

"yes, I should have come back early at this time on weekdays." Lan Xitian also echoed.

Rong Yuanhang asked a little strangely: "What did Yi Hong do?" ”

Xiao Xue replied: "That girl went to the market in the back street to buy vegetables, and I usually asked her to buy vegetables during this time." ”

"Oh." Rong Yuanhang didn't care either, and said: "She may go shopping in the market by the way, it's not a big problem to come back later." ”

"That's not right!" Lan Xitian said: "Yihong is very punctual, she doesn't dare to come back late." Because the house still has to wait for her dishes to cook, if the preparation is insufficient, so that the young master can't eat, then she will be a big sin. ”

"It's not that serious." Rong Yuanhang waved his hand nonchalantly. "Maybe something is delayed, it's not surprising. …… Hey, why are there so many people outside? ”

He suddenly said the latter sentence, and everyone turned their heads to look outside the door of the store.

At this moment, two women wearing long swords and clothes walked in. looks sharp and heroic, and this kind of dress knows at a glance that it is the female guard of a certain official. And it's a master!

One of the women stood there like a golden knife and shouted: "There is no one in the store, please leave the scene quickly!" ”

Rong Yuanhang frowned, he had already seen a lot of officers and soldiers coming outside one after another.

The woman shouted this, and the customers in the store looked at the battle outside, and knew that it was a big man coming. So he hurriedly left, and after a while, there was no one left.

The female guard waited for the customers to leave, glanced at Rong Yuanhang and the others, and said with a cold face: "Who is the shopkeeper?" Mrs. Pingzhan is here, why don't you come out and pick it up quickly? ”

Rong Yuanhang was still lazily lying on the chair, but he ignored the female guard, turned his head and asked Xiao Xue: "Which green onion, this is?" ”

"Puff......" Xiao Xue couldn't help but be amused by his question, but she quickly became serious, because the atmosphere was not right.

Lan Xitian on the side was startled, she hurriedly approached Rong Yuanhang's ear and said, "My young master, Mrs. Pingzhan is the city lord's wife, let's not slack off." (To be continued.) )
