Chapter 390: Catch the Mole
"Madame!" Slender stood on the ground respectfully, with a serious expression.
"You go and do something for me, find out who got me this little cat in the tea matter." Xian Xian nodded and didn't say a word.
"How do you want to do it?" Dong Xiaoman likes Xian Xian's character very much, and he never asks or says much.
"Madame said that this matter is big or small, so she asked me to go and check it out. I thought that if this person was greedy for money for a while, he would go to see where he had bought the tea stems and tea powder, and who he had sold the best tea leaves to. To catch a thief and catch stolen goods, as long as the evidence is conclusive. But if, as Madame analyzed, he wants to take the opportunity to sow discord, then it is necessary to find out who is the premeditator behind it. Xian Xian's concise analysis made Dong Xiaoman nod again and again.
"You're smart and thoughtful. Go check it out, it's best to find out for me as soon as possible. Dong Xiaoman commanded softly, seemingly believing in Xian Xian.
Xian Xian nodded and leaned over to whisper a few words in Dong Xiaoman's ear, Dong Xiaoman nodded clearly.
After walking out of the room, Xian Xian rushed downstairs with an ugly face and red eyes. attracted the eyes of the passing guests, and even cried after Xian Xian ran to the kitchen.
Immediately, a large number of people stepped forward to ask, but Xian Xian just covered her mouth and shook her head and cried and refused to speak.
Seeing this, Erya rebuked loudly: "What are you all doing together? Hurry up and do what you want to do! As soon as these words came out, everyone immediately dispersed, and Erya walked to Xian Xian's side and said, "Okay, don't cry." Madame is not looking for you to give you a chance, otherwise you don't know where you made a mistake. ”
It may be because Erya's voice is too loud, or it may be because Erya has a bad breath. Xian Xian heard Erya say this. Immediately stopped crying, raised his head, and shouted angrily: "I don't understand." Even if I do something wrong, you just say I'll be fine. Why do you want to go to Madame's to add oil and vinegar. Say mine isn't? You don't know what you say, no matter what you say, it will be more than ten times worse to Madame, and you are clearly harming me. ”
Erya crossed her arms and raised her eyebrows: "I don't know what you're talking about, I'm just reporting to my wife truthfully." ”
Slender shouted angrily, "You report truthfully? What kind of lady do you report truthfully, and only say that I am not, and never say anything else? ”
Erya didn't care about the stall: "That's your problem, not mine." Now you wipe away your tears and hurry up and do what you want. ”
Xian Xian got up and yelled at Erya with red eyes: "When Madame asked me to learn something, it was you who patted your chest and said that you wanted to teach me." But what did you tell me to do? I was asked to do all the chores, sometimes in the guest room, sometimes in the kitchen. I can't get busy ahead, so I have to go to the front. What are you when I am? Do the three of you push back and forth as a tool to fight? ”
Erya sneered: "You are so capable, don't bother me." What can you do? Will you pay back your monthly money for eating and drinking for nothing? ”
Slender and ran out of the house, but the kung fu of a pot of tea was known to the whole people who lived in the free house. For a while, everyone had different opinions, and they all said that Erya couldn't look down on Xian Xian and sued the black. When Dong Xiaoman came, he scolded Xian Xian fiercely, and Xian Xian had a big fight with Erya again.
Since that day, many people have kept their distance from Fiber. Slim Slim is smashing and clanging all day long, as if she has a grudge against something.
"Hey, Ah Liang is making tea for you again. Brewing tea here all day long, when will there be a good time? Look at the people, the days they came were similar to you. Now that tofu is so finely sliced. ”
In the interval of Xian Xian's rest, he saw Ah Liang squatting in front of the stove to boil water again, sitting next to him as if chatting unintentionally.
"That's right. I came with Dongdong. But the steward only asked him to learn from the master and let me boil the water myself. Although the monthly money is about the same, the craftsmanship is far behind. In two years, I will be able to cook the stove, and I still have to boil water. Ah Liang pursed his lips and muttered unhappily.
Seeing that someone knew his hardships, he immediately said a lot of things as if he had found a bosom friend. The general meaning is that Erya is eccentric, and only allows herself to boil water to make tea for others to learn the craft.
Xian Xian nodded and agreed: "Isn't it just a steward, as if you think you are an official." Everyone works for Xiaoyaoju, but it's just a matter of who has more money per month and who has less money per month. You said you were guilty of looking for us little minions, didn't you? ”
Ah Liang made a bitter face, and sighed while adding firewood to the stove pit: "You're fine, I heard that you live in a free house." You just can't stay any longer, you can go back and beg your wife to change jobs. I'm different, I'm the only one in our family, and I have to find a way to survive for myself. ”
At this time, the pot was boiling, and Xian Xian saw that Ah Liang grabbed a large handful of tea leaves and put them in the teapot. Throwing the hot water into the teapot again, Ah Liang poured a bowl and handed it to Xian Xian.
Xian Xian muttered again: "Our master is really generous, even the tea water is so good." We don't even have any of that, and we drink much worse than here. ”
Ah nodded: "Yes, none of us can drink the quality of this tea." It is too cost-effective to use this kind of tea, and I don't know if I know the road. ”
The two chatted familiarly, and Lai Xi'er ran over and shouted: "Do you have tea?" I'm going to die of thirst. ”
Ah Liang promised loudly: "Yes, yes, my aunt is very energetic today." ”
Lai Xi'er's face was full of red light, and she said with a smile: "Eat well and sleep well, of course you are in good spirits." He took the tea bowl, raised his head and drank it cleanly, wiping his mouth and burping.
"Auntie also thinks our tea is delicious, the two of us are boasting." Slender clasped her cheeks with her hands and smiled and talked to Laixi'er.
"Oh, what a pity. Such an expensive thing, I heard that it is better to give Tianzihao tea. As soon as Lai Xi'er heard Xian Xian say this, she immediately said with a painful face.
"Only the best people can drink it, after all, people spend money. Whoever makes us not superior people, we are inferior people, and inferior people can't drink it. Looking at the back of Laixi'er walking away, he muttered to Erya in a low voice.
"Hmph, if I had the ability to make money, I wouldn't be here as a grandson. Those who are called and drunk by these stewards all day long, what more are they than us? Multiple heads? Xian Xian said with a look of indignation, gritting her teeth.
"That's it, I'm saving up now, and when I have saved enough, I'll open a small shop. When the time comes, I'll be my own boss, and see who dares to support me at will! Ah Liang clenched his fists and tilted his head to look at the sky and swear.
"Then, Ah Liang. You will definitely need a helper to open a store in the future, so it is better for me to be a long-term worker for you in the future. Xian Xian smiled and joked, Ah Liang was stunned for a moment and touched his head embarrassedly: "What you said is true, I, I think it's okay." ”
Xian Xian suddenly smiled: "That's good, it's decided." When you open a store in the future, I will definitely go over and help you. The wages are as good as here, how about the boss? ”
Ah Liang's eyes lit up, and he looked left and right to find that no one had looked at him and whispered mysteriously: "I have saved a tael of silver now, and it won't be long before I can open a store." You don't have to be angry with those people anymore! ”
Xian Xian looked incredulous, and pouted: "How much money do you only make a month, you can save a tael of silver." You're not going to gamble, are you? ”
Ah Liang paused, looking unspeakable. Seeing this, Xian Xian suddenly felt that she had guessed correctly, and began to laugh at Ah Liang: "Oh, bragging." You're just a big mouth, I'll just say, how can you find a good way to make money. ”
"Actually, I'm telling you, I've really found a good way. But I can't tell you just yet, you trust me. Ah Liang looked mysterious, shrugged his shoulders and pouted: "Don't say it." ”
"In this way, it is Ah Liang's hands and feet. Because he didn't want to waste time here, he sold the tea leaves and replaced them with tea powder, so as to save money to open a shop. Dong Xiaoman nodded and said thoughtfully.
"This Ah Liang is really too bold, and he took the owner's things privately, and it was shoddy. It was so hateful to put the blame on me. Erya bit her lip and said resentfully.
"There must be someone behind him who has an idea, otherwise if he is really a person with an idea, he will not be arranged to go to the water room." Dong Xiaoman sneered, looked at Xian Xian and said, "What do you think, Xian Xian?" ”
Xian Xian nodded and said, "I think it's the same, when he talks to me, he always wants to talk and stops." And recently, he took the initiative to talk to me, and the people around me knew that I had offended Ya Guan and stayed away from me. So I think if he had a purpose, he would have done something in the next few days. ”
Sure enough, one afternoon, Ah Liang mysteriously pulled Xian Xian into the corner.
"What's wrong?" Xian Xian had an impatient expression: "That woman can't see me, she should scold me loudly again." ”
Ah Liang hurriedly covered his slender mouth and looked around cautiously. After making sure that no one was paying attention to him, he said, "I have a friend, and the smartest is a military advisor. He used to give me a good idea, and that's how I made a little money. Let's meet that friend today and ask him to give you a good idea to make money. ”
Slender Nian flashed his big eyes and asked curiously, "Really, how did you do it?" Tell me about it. ”
Ah Liang whispered: "No, there are too many people here, I'll tell you later." ”
Xian Xian pursed her mouth again and questioned: "If you don't say it, I won't believe it, I won't go!" ”
Ah Liang saw that Xian Xian was like a hob meat, and blurted out anxiously: "Okay, okay, I'm afraid of you." Let me tell you, I took those tea leaves and sold them, and bought the tea powder to make tea. ”
I see, Xian Xian said with disdain in her heart.
"Alright then, I'll just see what kind of military advisor you are. It's just that I can't help much in the kitchen, and I can't steal vegetables or steal meat and sell it. With a tangled face, Ah Liang said funny: "You are now starting to think about what you can do, it's not the way you scolded me just now!" ”
Xian Xian took a sip: "Of course I'm happy to make money, you have a way to make money, don't tell me earlier, it's really unconscionable." (To be continued......)
