Chapter Seventy-Five: Lao Hu's Doubts
"I remember what the eldest lady said."
Lin Wanbai stood in front of Lin Chen with low eyebrows, looking a little more well-behaved than Lin Manlu, even if he wanted to be angry, he couldn't do it.
Lin Chen originally wanted to give her a little bit of a look, but looking at her soft bun-like expression, it felt like a punch on cotton, which was painless and uncomfortable.
But I don't know what to do.
"Alright, you can step aside."
Looking at the gambling goblin, Lin Chen's teeth itched with hatred, and he used to say that as long as he sent a maid to push her off the lotus pond while she was not paying attention, she would drown. But now, he can't do this, with the title of the future princess of the Qi Palace, if something happens to Lin Wanbai, he will definitely be investigated to the end.
Moreover, except for some blockages, Lin Wanbai did not pose any threat to them.
Lin Wanbai didn't know the reason why the kind aunt and gentle sister in front of her wanted to kill her in every possible way, the first was that she thought that Lin Wanbai's perfumery had been learned and had no use value; The second is because he has a marriage contract with Jing Shizi.
Lin Manlu likes to respect the prince, if she is not eliminated, how can she be on the throne.
Now that the marriage contract has been dissolved, there is no need to take risks and risk offending King Qi's mansion to attack Lin Wanbai.
And Lin Chen's family is still paying attention, relying on Lin Wanbai's relationship, if she can let her Xu'er learn from Taixue, it is important to seek a good position.
"Wanbai wants to go out for a walk and buy some things that are used by female celebrities."
Lin Wanbai didn't retreat immediately, she got up early this morning to have more important things to do, instead of being trapped in the room all day, like a wasted person.
When Lin Chen heard her say this, he frowned without leaving a trace, and replied: "What you want can be found in the embroidery room, there is no need to go out." β
"However, I want to go out for a walk, maybe I get married, and I can't move around lightly."
Lin Wanbai continued to insist, she wanted to go out, no one could stop her, and she specially told Lin Chen's that she didn't want her to do too many things behind her.
"Do you have to go out?"
Lin Chen glanced at her, and saw that Lin Wan's white eyebrows and eyes were still obedient, and he couldn't find any difficult words for a while.
"You have a daughter's house, running around, if you provoke something, can you afford the consequences?"
"Wanbai didn't go out alone, naturally there was a maid following, and Gu Yuan was waiting outside the house. That maid has a calm personality, and with her by my side, there will definitely be no trouble. β
Lin Wanbai knew that Gu Yuan was placed by them to spy on her, and since this was the case, she took the initiative to bring it up, and Lin Chen's family had no room to refuse.
So, when she finished speaking, Lin Chen lowered her head and thought for a while, then looked at her, and said with a smile on her still kind face: "Since this is the case, then you can go out for a walk, come back early, and the eldest lady will cook you sugar water to cool off." β
"Thank you, Auntie."
After Lin Wanbai finished speaking, she turned around and walked out, in fact, she deliberately came to ask for peace today, and she also deliberately told Lin Chen that she was going out; There are some things that are more interesting than being tucked away and salted and vinegared.
Gu Yuan was waiting in the courtyard, and when he saw her come out, he lowered his head and followed behind him, without saying much.
Lin Wanbai walked in front, Gu Yuan followed behind, she didn't want a sedan chair and carriage, and kept walking forward; During the month she lived in the broken hospital, she ran out all day, and the road in this market was also very familiar, so she didn't worry about going wrong.
Gu Yuan was behind him, and when he saw her walking forward, he couldn't help but ask: "Where is the girl, where are you going, there are too many people in the market, if there is a mistake, it will not be good." β
In the past, when she followed Lin Manlu's side, she would never go to such a place where inferior people go, so many people, and almost all of them were big men covered in stinky sweat, she really felt unappetizing when she saw it.
It's better to go to the tea banquet or a small party held by Miss Boudoir, and come freely.
"There are some treasures that only exist in places like this."
Lin Wanbai continued to walk forward, thinking that he was really wronged by the ancient fate, he used to follow Lin Manlu, and he could often see a lot of housekeepers and ladies, and he took a lot of money; But when it came to her, she had to walk to the market.
After walking for a long time, I finally came to Gui Chunxing.
When the shopkeeper Lao Hu saw Lin Wanbai, he was stunned for a moment, hurriedly walked over, bent down and said, "The little lady is fine." β
"Grandpa Hu, you are more polite again."
Seeing familiar people, Lin Wanbai is always in a good mood, and when she walks around with a mask in the Lin family, her heart is very tired.
"The number of etiquette still can't be forgotten."
Lao Hu said, welcomed her to the chair next to the coffee table, glanced at Gu Yuan, and did not speak.
Lin Wanbai noticed Lao Hu's doubts, smiled, looked at Gu Yuan and said, "It's okay, she is my maid." β
Since Lin Wanbai said that it doesn't matter, Lao Hu is not a twisted person, he asked the shopkeeper to go in to make tea, and then sat in front of Lin Wanbai, and said in a respectful tone: "Lao Yu first wanted to congratulate the little lady for finding Ruyi Langjun." β
The matter of this imperial official's family, the spice shop hidden in the depths of the market, actually learned about it?
Lin Wanbai raised her eyebrows slightly, just smiled and didn't answer.
Lao Hu has lived for most of his life, how could he not understand Lin Wanbai's expression, a businessman like him is the most basic to observe words and feelings, and his speech is just right, and it will definitely not be less or more.
"Although the business of our store is a little cold, customers have accumulated a lot of contacts over the years, and we can always inquire about some big and small things."
Moreover, the reputation of King Qi's mansion is outside, and Princess Qi is determined to win Lin Wanbai, in order not to let the Lin family have a chance to regret it; The fact that Lin Wanbai is about to become the princess of King Qi's Mansion can be said to have spared no effort to spread for a long time.
Anyone with a little bit of a vein knows about it.
The shopkeeper of the spice shop hidden in the depths of the market knows a thing or two, and it is not surprising.
"That's right, for no reason, I'm going to get married."
Lin Wanbai smiled bitterly, she was only sixteen years old, and she was about to get married, what a ridiculous thing.
"But little lady, as far as I know, he ...... the Hongshizi of the Qi Palace"
Lao Hu is a smart person, and there are some words that can be stopped at the point and do not need to be really said clearly.
"Not a bad-hearted person."
Lin Wanbai replied simply, Hongshu may not be as good as others, but his heart for her is much better than those normal people; If she didn't have a fiancΓ©, she would like Hongshu very much.
"Since the little lady has said so, if the old man asks again, it will seem to be overstepping."
Lao Hu said, and the little guy on the side came over with a tea tray, brewing high-quality Qimen black tea, which is enough to see Lao Hu's attention to Lin Wanbai.
"I came this time, or to ask Grandpa Hu to buy spices, last time it was too void, but thanks to you."
Lin Wanbai said, took out a folded note from the cuff, handed it to Lao Hu, Gu Yuan, who was standing on the side, looked at it, but because the note was folded, she didn't see anything.
Lao Hu opened the note, glanced at it quickly, then folded it, put it in his cuffs, looked at Lin Wanbai, and said with some doubts: "One thing I don't understand, the little lady is from the Lin family, and it is not difficult to ask for any kind of spices, why did you choose my broken shop?" β
