137 Lixue
At the beginning of February, on the eve of the examination, people from all over the country came to the capital to build a business and rushed to Chunqiu.
Zheng Shoufan took Ding Juwen to approach the courtyard of a second entrance in Jianye City: "This is the house of a distant relative of mine, and that relative later moved his family to the northwest to take office, so it was vacant." We live here, quiet and warm, better than the inn! β
"Thank you, Brother Zheng, it's really bothering." Ding Juwen saluted and thanked him.
"Where is Brother Ding," Zheng Shoufan waved his hand, "We have been classmates for two years, and we are in the same department, so what is polite." "He was the tenth person in Huainan last year.
Ding Juwen knew Zheng Shoufan's temperament, and he was the most enthusiastic and outgoing, so he was no longer polite: "In short, thank you Brother Zheng for your kindness." β
"Later, let's settle down and go buy some anointing candles, charcoal and other things, there are not so many people here for a long time." Zheng Shoufan returned the topic to the fireworks in the world.
Ding Juwen was speechless.
Jianye Sumire Hall is located on Flower Market Street. The five-open faΓ§ade is quite magnificent, the most important thing is that the depth is great, after entering the door, the spacious and atmospheric layout, will always look a little exciting.
At this time, outside the door, Ding Juwen stopped and looked at the gold-lettered signboard of "Sumire Hall" not far away, and was a little depressed.
Listening to Tong Ningxin, she moved to Jianye. He always seemed to be following in her footsteps, but he could never catch up.
How could Zheng Shoufan not know that Huainan was a sensation at the beginning, and the owner of Sumire Hall rejected the Xinke Xie Yuan incident, and see Sumire Hall again at this time......
"Brother Ding, let's pass the past, a manly man, you can afford to take it and put it down. She looks down on you, it's her loss, and she will regret it in the future! Of course, Zheng Shoufan stood on Ding Juwen's side, it stands to reason. Ding Juwen's conditions are good enough, and if he puts it out like this, many daughters are willing to marry. You are a woman who shows up to do business, Ding Juwen does not dislike you, and is willing to accept you as a concubine, you should be blessed, or marry you. But you still can't look down on it?
"Brother Zheng, I ......" Ding Juwen wanted to say something, but he didn't know where to start.
"I know you still want to defend that woman," Zheng Shoufan said angrily, "a woman should be content, a person like her is not worth it." My dad said. Doing business is originally to worship the high and low, and to attach the official noble, and when you enter the cabinet to worship, do you still need to beg her? She'll come up and slap you up herself! When the time comes, it will depend on whether she is thick-skinned or forgetful. He scoffed.
Ding Juwen was silent.
Zheng Shoufan dragged him away: "This woman, wait until you have fame and power." Come in line, and you're afraid you won't be able to find a good one when the time comes? β
At this time. Inside Sumire. Nian Xin came to Ah Ugly anxiously and worriedly: "Girl, this is a place of right and wrong in the capital, and business is not easy to do." No, two girls are arguing! β
Ah Chou was unhurried and unhurried: "There are business opportunities only if there is right and wrong, I'll take a look." "There are many officials and nobles in the capital, and the forces of various factions are complicated. Disputes are inevitable. Just put the right mindset and solve it.
In the hall of the Sumire Hall, the two richly dressed girls were in a stalemate, looking about fourteen or fifteen years old, and they had not yet reached the age of fourteen or fifteen.
The one on the left wears a light purple top. The wisteria skirt on a white background, with a white fox coat on the outside, is very noble and elegant. Her appearance can be called exquisite, even more beautiful than Rong Qinglan, who has a good appearance, her skin can be broken by blowing, and her temperament is elegant and indifferent, giving people a very clean and pure feeling.
The one on the right, wearing an eye-catching madder dress, with a large mink fur, is much more flamboyant and gorgeous than the one on the left. But judging by his appearance, he is not as good as the one on the left. Although it is also excellent, it is still a little worse than Rong Qinglan, and his temperament is also a little impetuous.
Ah Chou glanced at it, and then it became clear: their dresses were obviously from rich and noble families. Everyone is quarrelling, how can there be a reason to make their own moves, that will affect their reputation. Therefore, it must be the maid who does it for him.
So in front of these two girls, there was a maid who quarreled endlessly.
"It's obvious that our girl took a fancy to this rouge first!" The maid on the right is fierce and vicious.
"This rouge, there are a lot of them here, why do you want this box from our county master? Our county lord is good, I won't fight with you, I asked for another box, and you girls will fight again! If you don't take our county lord in your eyes, don't you take the emperor and the queen mother in your eyes? The maid on the left argued.
Ah Chou tilted his head slightly and asked Tian Qiumei, who was watching: "What's the matter?" β
Tian Qiumei is straightforward: "That girl is too unreasonable, she is against the county lord." Isn't the county lord big? Where did she get the guts? β
Ah Chou laughed lightly: "That also depends on their respective backgrounds, if this girl dares to do it, there must be a backstage to support her, otherwise she would have died a long time ago." Then he stepped forward and persuaded him.
"Two guest officers, there are many kinds of things in Sumire Hall, there is no need to worry about the guest officer, there will always be things. In addition, the same kind of rouge is the same for each box, as the saying goes, those who become big things are not informal, so why should the guest officer be entangled in this? Her words seemed to be impartial, but she was actually helping the county lord.
How to be an identity is not her choice, she can't do it, she only helps with the word "reason".
The maid wanted to say something, but the girl on the right suddenly cried: "I just wanted to see this box of rouge, but I didn't expect the county lord to take a fancy to it." I thought that although the county lord has a higher status, doesn't he pay attention to first-come-first-served business? So I didn't let ...... But the county lord was annoyed with me about it. When I picked up the second box, the county lord said that it was hers...... "I held back my tears while crying, and I didn't seem to be aggrieved."
Ugly raised his eyebrows slightly under the veil: crying like this, and being able to explain things so clearly, is really a "good skill"!
"The girl cried so sadly, it was really pear blossoms with rain that I saw pity, it made me so uneasy, I cried so badly in my Sumire Hall, people who don't know thought that it was Sumire Hall who treated the girl badly," Ah Chou said politely, but he gave the girl an invisible slap, "As for those who know, then they can only shake their heads and sigh, some people just have this ability, say black as white, and white as black, but it's a pity that I can't learn such a good skill!" β
The girl was still wiping the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, and when she heard this, she understood the cynicism in it, and she couldn't pull her face down for a while.
Soon, her maid began to fight back: "You Sumire didn't entertain your guests well, and our girl was wronged, and you are still spewing blood here!" β
Ah Chou chuckled, stretched out his hand and pointed to the crowd of onlookers nearby: "If you say this, you are too wronged by Sumire Hall, these are all guest officials of our Sumire Hall, and many of them are frequented, they all know that Sumire Hall is big, but they never deceive customers." For example, today, Sumire Hall is just taking out things and selling them, both in variety and quantity. So many people didn't make a fuss when they bought it...... It was about me who was unblessed, and made the girl unhappy. β
The maid wanted to say something, but was directly stopped by Ah Chou's interjection: "In addition, with so many pairs of eyes just now, this world is not dominated by whoever is pitiful, if you want this, you don't need to check any evidence in court, what kind of witnesses do you want, just cry, see who cries pitifully, who is not guilty." She is most unaccustomed to this kind of person who pretends to be pitiful and sympathetic, but is actually like a femme fatale.
The girl's face was red and white, and she paused for a long time before turning around, and she didn't want anything, but just went to the county lord.
The maid of the county lord on the left hurriedly stopped it, in case the girl was not good for the county lord.
The girl didn't come closer, staring at the county lord, a smile of unknown meaning appeared on her lips, and her voice was slow: "I'm in a good mood today, so forget it." Princess? Xia Yixue, you don't dare, fight with me! β
Ah Ugly watched the girl leave with her people, and looked at Xia Yixue twice: Xia Yixue, Xia Yichen, and the county lord again, brother and sister? No wonder this Xia Yixue is so good-looking, it is true, the Xia family has good genes!
Since she is Xia Yichen's sister, it is not the wrong person. Anyway, she didn't like the girl, but now she killed two birds with one stone.
Before she could finish thinking about it, Xia Yixue stepped forward: "Thank you girl for your help." β
Ah Chou blinked his clear eyes under the veil: "No need to say thank you, the matter lies with my Sumire, and I am responsible for solving it." β
"You Sumire Hall," Xia Yixue muttered these three words, "Could it be that you are the master of Jin Tang?" The tone was full of surprise.
Ah Chou saluted lightly: "Ah Chou is not talented, it is the boss of Sumire." For Xia Yixue, she doesn't hate it, but she doesn't want to stammer. Obviously, it is not very effective to tie up a county lord who dares to bully even people who do not have a title. In addition, Xia Yichen is enough for her to have a headache, and if there is another person from Yuwangfu, she is afraid that she will be fine.
Xia Yixue blinked her bright eyes: "I, I didn't expect you to be so young......" She seems to be younger than herself, she became the boss, and she is still a girl.
Ah Chou didn't say much: "Each has its own specialty, and the county lord should be careful in the future." β
Xia Yixue lowered her eyes slightly, and the corners of her mouth kept smiling, but Ugly didn't think she was laughing: "Actually, there are some clowns, I don't take it to heart." β
"County Lord, if you don't take it to heart, sometimes the consequences can be very serious, this is my own personal experience. Every hidden danger must be killed when it shows its signs. "Aunt Zhou's thing is that she didn't care about it at first.
Xia Yixue was a little surprised, and then shook her head slightly: "It's not easy to kill, and besides, maybe I have no reason to kill." β
Ah Chou sighed and shook his head: This is a lady who has never experienced changes, and she is too kind and simple.
Why is Xia Yichen so weird and evil, Xia Yixue is at the other extreme?
Seeing that Ah Chou saluted and retired, Xia Yixue stopped her: "Girl, you are a different woman, I am Xia Yixue, the county lord of Lixue of Yuwang Mansion." β
In this way, it means making friends. Anyway, multiple friends are better than multiple enemies: "In Xia Ugly, there is no surname, just call me Ugly." β
Xia Yixue was puzzled for a moment, but then she was relieved and didn't ask more. (To be continued......)
