"Miss Lian'er, are you really not thinking about it anymore~?"

In the West Market, in the wing room of a tea shop, a young woman wearing a thick skirt said to a little girl.

This little girl is the maid Lian'er of the Li Mansion!

"Nope! No! I...... I will never betray the young master and the young lady! ”

Lian'er shook her head violently and replied.

She had come to the pharmacy in Xishi to get medicine for her mother today, but a woman stopped her halfway through, saying that there was a way to treat her mother's illness, and she was overjoyed, so she came to this tea shop with her. But she didn't expect that the woman actually wanted to exchange a hundred yuan for the secret recipe of Lifu bean sprouts, and Lan'er subconsciously refused in her heart, because the money in her purse for two yuan to buy medicine was still lent to her by Han Yuxi yesterday!

After that, Lian'er turned her head and was about to go out. But the two big men guarding the door stepped forward and blocked her way!

"Miss Pingxiang, what do you mean by this? I am from the Hou Mansion, and this is at the foot of the Son of Heaven, you ...... Do you want to commit murder? ”

A touch of panic flashed in Lian'er's eyes, but when she thought that this was the capital, she felt a little calm, and she forced herself to calm down.

"Presumptuous! You all go down! Don't freak out your guests! ”

The woman waved her hand, scolded the two men at the door, and then stepped forward to take Lian'er's hand and said with a smile: "Giggles! Lian'er! You may have misunderstood what my sister meant just now, but my sister didn't let you betray Yong'an Hou! Sister just wants to know how this soybean is soaked out of bean sprouts, don't worry, after my sister knows, she will definitely leave Chang'an immediately and go to other states and counties to sell bean sprouts, and naturally it will not harm the interests of Yong'an Hou! And you, it's not like you've betrayed Yong'anhou, you say, isn't it? ”

Lian'er frowned lightly and was silent, and when the woman saw this, she continued to persuade: "Besides, your mother is sick now, your money must not be enough, right?" Sister Lian'er, you just need to tell your sister the secret recipe of bean sprouts, and your sister will not only give you a hundred yuan, but also help you find the most famous doctor in the world to treat your mother's illness. That's when you'll be a rich lady! You say, don't you? ”

Lian'er's face finally moved a little, she opened her mouth, hesitated for a moment, and said, "You...... What you say is true? Are you really going to leave Chang'an? Will you really find a doctor to cure my mother's illness? ”

The young woman was overjoyed, pointed to a black package on the table, and said with a smile: "That's natural, how could my sister lie to you?" Here is ten guan money, as long as you say the secret recipe, my sister will give you this ten guan money immediately! After my sister verifies that the method you said is feasible, I will give you the remaining 90 yuan! As for the doctor, my sister can ask the doctor to go to your house tomorrow and treat your mother! What do you think? Miss Lian'er? ”

Lian'er's little face was suddenly full of entanglement, and under the aggressive gaze of the young woman, she thought for a long time, but still refused, "I...... I can't say! I don't know if you're lying to me, you make me think again! It's not too early, I ...... I'm going to buy medicine for my mother!! ”

With that, she hurried out the door.

The two big men outside the door had the intention to stop them, but they didn't hear the instructions of the woman in the house, so they could only let Lian'er leave.

Inside the wings.

After Lian'er left, a blonde and blue-eyed Hu woman suddenly came out of the screen behind the young woman, who was the concubine of Hu Shang Wuzhu Liuyu.

"Madame, she didn't say yes! The slave and maid are not doing well, and please punish the lady! ”

The young woman stooped and saluted.

The orchid named Sakurayuki waved her hand, then hooked the young woman's chin and chuckled, "Hehe, Reimu, it's not your fault!" Besides, that girl is already excited, and it is still unknown whether she will succeed or fail! You find a way to ask her out again tomorrow, if you can't impress her with a hundred guan, you will give out two hundred, and if two hundred can't do it, then five hundred! If this thing is done well, I will let the master favor you well! ”

That's right, it was indeed she who instructed her maid to "confuse" Lian'er to tell the secret recipe for making bean sprouts. The reason why she didn't come forward in person was that she was a Hu person, and most of the Tang people looked down on the Hu people, and Lian'er was from the Hou Mansion, so it was very likely that she also looked down on the Hu people; Second, she is hidden behind the scenes, once the matter is revealed, it is better to get out, right?

"Mrs. Xie!"

The young woman thanked softly.

……………………………………

"Mother! The medicine is here, I'll help you up and drink the medicine! ”

South of Chang'an City, Da'anfang.

In a dilapidated courtyard, Lian'er held a bowl of medicine and said to an old woman lying on the bed.

"Alas! Lian'er, how many times has my mother told you, don't waste money anymore, my mother has lived for so long and has lived enough, but I can't drag you down! ”

The old woman looked at her daughter, whose face was still covered with ashes, sighed, and said.

"Mother! What are you talking about? You gave birth to me and raised me, no matter what, your daughter has to take care of you for the rest of your life, how can it be called a drag? ”

Lian'er said hurriedly.

The old woman said sadly: "Lian'er, my mother is sorry for you!" You have no father since you were a child, and your mother couldn't support you back then, so she had to sell you to Master Li's house as a maid, but your mother just gave birth to you, but she didn't support you! Now my mother can't drag you down! ”

"Mother! If you say this kind of thing again, Lian'er is angry! ”

Lian'er stomped her feet and said, "Besides, fortunately, you sold me to the Li Mansion back then, the old master and the old lady are both kind-hearted people, and the young master and the young lady are also good masters, and the young master is in full swing, and he will definitely have a bright future in the future!" I don't know how many people want to come to Li Mansion to be a maid! It's a pity they don't have this blessing! ”

The old woman agreed with Lian'er's words, and she said with a happy face: "Lian'er, you have a good life, you have such a master family, otherwise your mother and I will really regret it for the rest of my life!" My mother prays for Yong'an Hou every day, praying for his health and longevity, and for his family's prosperity, so that Lian'er can be regarded as having a person to rely on! ”

"Alright, mother! Don't talk about this, the medicine is almost cold, you are about to drink the medicine! ”

Lian'er had some complications in her heart, and hurriedly said.

"Good! But Lian'er, next time, you are not allowed to secretly go behind your mother's back to buy medicine, your mother's illness is actually almost cured! ”

"Got it, mother!"

The old woman drank the decoction in the bowl, and then muttered to herself: "This wife of Yong'an Hou is really a bodhisattva, lend money to Lian'er to you, and there is no deadline for return, she and Yong'an Hou are really good people!" If such a good person hurts them, after his mother's death, he must turn into a ghost and go to him to ask for his life! ”

Lian'er's body couldn't help but tremble, and the face of the young woman who was looking for her during the day involuntarily appeared in her mind. Almost instantly, she made a decision in her mind!

..............
