Chapter 150: Can You Die If You Talk Well?
Hearing this, the melon-faced woman lowered her head slightly shyly, but the goose-egg-faced woman did not move, and her eyelashes did not tremble.
Zhou Shu remembered the conditions of "ending immediately" she mentioned, lest she misunderstand, and hurriedly explained: "They are all the daughters of the deceased concubine, and they are here to help me take care of the house." ”
As he spoke, he pointed to the woman with the melon seed face, "This is Mingmei." ”
"As the name suggests." Jian Ying praised.
This seems to have become a law, but anyone with "eyebrows" in their names is basically a great beauty that leads to reverie.
"The second young lady praised it falsely." Mingmei smiled and blessed the body.
Without waiting for Zhou Shu to introduce, the goose-egg-faced woman opened her mouth, "Slave Erui, I once had a relationship with the second young lady. ”
"Have we met?" Jian Ying was a little surprised, and then looked closely, she did feel a little familiar, and she couldn't remember where she had seen it for a while.
"Did the lady forget?" Zhou Shu reminded her with a smile, "The first time we met in Biquanju, it was Erui who went to stop the car to spread the word. ”
Jian Ying suddenly realized, "I see. ”
At that time, he hid from King Ji'an and the Fang family to find her for a showdown, and wanted to scare her with a good man's style, so that she would take the initiative to withdraw from the marriage, and it was not easy to pick someone from the palace. So I found one from this golden house, pretending to be Fang's girl.
At that time, she was thinking about showing herself well in front of her future mother-in-law, where would she pay close attention to a girl?
"So what?" She still didn't understand the purpose of Zhou Shu bringing her here, "You made an appointment a few days in advance to bring me to this place, could it be just to introduce two people to me?" ”
"Of course not." Zhou Shu replied with a smile, and then instructed Ming Mei and Erui, "Go and open the warehouse." ”
The two responded "yes" in unison, then took the wind lantern in the little girl's hand and stepped forward to lead the way.
Jian Ying looked at the back of Mingmei's weak willow breeze, and narrowed her eyes with interest.
If she was not mistaken just now, when Zhou Shu said, "Naturally not", Mingmei's expression seemed to be a little disappointed.
Could it be that this girl really thinks of herself as the Gillian in this golden house?
Zhou Shu saw that she was laughing alone, a little inexplicable, "What is the lady laughing at?" ”
"Happy." Jian Ying looked at him meaningfully, "I thought I had caught a bad nest, but I didn't expect it to be a fragrant dumpling." ”
Zhou Shu didn't know why, and didn't go to her heart, pulled her hand out of the warmer, wrapped it in the palm of her hand and held it.
After passing through five or six gates and turning seven or eight corners, the two leaders of the front finally stopped in front of a courtyard gate guarded by a family.
"Second Young Master, Second Young Lady, it's here." Ming Mei smiled back, then took out a bunch of keys, stepped forward with a clanging sound, and opened the copper lock the size of Zhou Shu's fist.
On the side of Erui alone, he pushed hard, and the two heavy black lacquer doors, accompanied by the sound of "squeak", separated in both directions. In the night, it looks like a big mouth of a black hole.
Entering the door, Jian Ying looked around and saw that the courtyard was surrounded by large bluestone walls on three sides, and only on the side facing the door was a row of houses with unknown rooms. In the center there are six doors on either side, and there are small windows on either side of the door that open symmetrically.
There were four men with spears guarding the door.
This time, Erui came out with a bunch of keys and opened the two doors in the middle. The girls stayed outside, only she and Mingmei went in, lit the lamps and candles inside one by one, and returned to the door, all of them were blessed, and made a "please" gesture.
Zhou Shu took Jian Ying's hand, said "Lady beware", and helped her cross the threshold of more than half a foot.
Mingmei carried the intimate figures of the two in the corners of his eyes, and quickly bit his red lips.
Seeing that Xiao Ji and Yuan Fang were following Jian Ying closely, they were about to enter the door, and immediately stretched out their hands to stop them, "You can't go in." ”
Jian Ying's footsteps paused slightly, glanced back, but did not make a sound, and continued to follow Zhou Shu inside.
Xiao Ji comprehended, bent down, and got under Mingmei's arm.
"Hey, why don't you know the rules?" Mingmei was immediately anxious, and when she was about to pull someone, she suddenly felt a tightness in her wrist, followed by a dull pain, and she couldn't help but scream "ah".
Yuan Fang took advantage of the grasping action to dodge into the door, shook off her slippery wrist, and muttered, "I didn't make any effort, what are you doing so loudly?" ”
Mingmei was shaken by her, and hurriedly held on to the door frame, and her pretty face turned red with shame and indignation. glared hatefully and swaggered to follow up with Xiao Ji and Yuan Fang, and looked at Zhou Shu's back with resentment.
Monkey Kui and Cuifeng outside the door both raised their eyelids and glanced at Ming Mei, and said in their hearts that the second young master didn't speak, what did she call as a watchdog?
They touched each other's shoulders and followed.
Jian Ying looked at it and saw that the huge warehouse was very clean and orderly.
The place against the wall is neatly stacked with cages, and a number of treasure pavilion shelves are placed in parallel on the open space, which are placed in different categories of gold and silver porcelain, pen, ink, paper, inkstone, books, calligraphy and paintings, cloth fur, and all kinds of boxes and boxes.
There is a label on the head of the shelf, and the type and number of items are indicated in square letters on the top. The font is delicate and exquisite, and it should be the handwriting of Ming Mei or Erui.
Everything was shiny and spotlessly clean. If you put a barcode on it to set the price, and then put a cash register at the door, you can open a supermarket directly.
It can be seen how much effort and hard work the people who take care of the warehouse.
I just don't know if there are other things mixed in behind the hard work, in addition to duties.
"Lady, you come." Zhou Shu took her hand, led her to a row of slightly old wooden boxes by the wall, and pointed to her, "These are the dowries left by the concubine. ”
Jian Ying let out an "oh" and said no more.
"It was originally stored in the treasury of the palace, but I pretended to squander it and asked the princess to transport it out little by little." Zhou Shu said to himself, and then pointed to other things, "These are all things I have purchased in the past few years, as long as they are not extravagant, they are enough for us to live comfortably for the rest of our lives." ”
"Look at you who have nothing to do on weekdays, but I didn't expect to hide your eyes." Jian Ying glanced at him with a smile, a little curious in her heart, "You didn't plan to marry a daughter-in-law before, what are you doing secretly saving such a room of good things?" ”
Zhou Shu glanced at her deeply, "Probably because I already felt in my dark that I would meet my lady one day, right?" ”
Jian Ying was soured by him, and covered her cheeks and took a breath of cold air, "Can you die if you talk well?" ”
Zhou Shu laughed lowly, and didn't say anything, and raised his voice to call Mingmei and Erui over, and ordered: "You give the key to the lady, from now on, everything in this warehouse will belong to the lady." ”
Erui answered "yes" and handed over the key.
Xiao Ji didn't say a word, so he stepped forward to answer.
Mingmei didn't expect Zhou Shu to make such a decision, so she bit her lip and was stunned for a long time. After coming back to his senses, he still held the set of keys tightly in his hand, "Second Young Master, Second Young Lady lives in the palace, I'm afraid I can't take care of this treasury."
What do you think if the slaves and maids take care of it and report it to the second young lady every once in a while? ”
