Chapter 5: Take a gamble

Yun Xiu looked at the young man opposite on guard, and politely refused: "I bother Gongzi Xie to pass on the word, my grandmother is kind, and I don't treat Gongzi as an outsider, but I can't help but pay attention to it, please ask Gongzi to go back, so as not to spread the word that Yunfu has not taught his subordinates well and has not treated customers well." ”

"The eighth girl misunderstood." How could Xie Zongren not hear the good thing, and hurriedly explained, "Old lady, Uncle Yun is kind to our mother and son, how can I have the reason to eat white food, and besides, strength should be done by men, I will help my sisters carry things, put them at the door of each courtyard, and never bother." ”

The hairy phoenix is not as good as a chicken, the more sensible, well-behaved, and unscrupulous Xie Zongren is, the more sympathetic the old lady is to him, plus the pleasing skin, he is invincible.

Yun Xiu wanted to get rid of him, so he had to put some thought into it.

She put away her sharp edge and said with a faint smile: "Gongzi Xie is a scholar, holding the four treasures of the study with one hand, not doing rough work, moving and carrying his own subordinates, there is no need to be restrained and polite." ”

As he spoke, he told Chun Tao again: "You must send Gongzi Xie back to Huishoutang, and then ask the kitchen to cook a bowl of ginger tea to warm up Gongzi's body." ”

Xie Zongren made a play, and she accompanied him to act.

Only Chun Tao asked stupidly: "Girl, the slave and maid send the son back, what should you do over there?" ”

Yun Xiu was amused by her: "I have my own way, you take Gongzi back first." ”

Chun Tao said honestly, and said to Xie Zongren: "Please come with the slave and maid." ”

Xie Zongren couldn't shirk it, so he had to respond: "There is labor." ”

From beginning to end, Chun Tao didn't notice the complicated emotions in his eyes.

As for Yun Xiu, she doesn't need Xie Zongren to be more than enough to succeed, with this man's city, knowing that it is the Marquis of Zhongyi who is here today, she will definitely cling to the relationship by any means.

She's done stupid once, and she won't do it again.

***

When Yun Xiu arrived at the Hanging Flower Gate, several small guys worked together to carry the box, which was so lively.

She stood in the back verandah and watched for a while, but she didn't find Zhongyi Hou, could it be that she was late, and Hou Ye left?

If this is the case, Zhongyi Hou came from afar and was neglected, no wonder he was dissatisfied with his father.

Yun Xiu frowned, turned around and went to the gatehouse, vigorously opened the door curtain, and Xingshi asked: "Who called the door just now, who greeted the door?" ”

In the face of the sudden eight girls, the three mothers-in-law in the concierge who ate melon seeds spit out the shells in their mouths in a panic, looked at each other, and couldn't say why.

"It's all dumb!" When Yun Xiu was angry, he unconsciously revealed the momentum of the main mother, and his voice was cold, "Explain clearly and lightly, and it is not clear that you will tie up Huishoutang, thirty boards." ”

Let the old lady know that it is by no means a meal.

A mother-in-law was so frightened that she defended: "Eight girls, don't blame a few old slaves for this, it's the porter who calls the door, we give ten copper plates to each person according to the rules, and ask them to carry the boxes in, see that they are not manpowered, and call our own people to help." ”

Zhongyi Hou personally sent something, how could he let the porter call the door?

Despise Yunfu, and the bad thing is the face of the second brother-in-law.

Yun Xiu didn't believe that Zhongyihou didn't understand this reason, so she continued to ask her mother-in-law: "You said that the one who called the door was the porter, what he looked like, what clothes he was wearing, what his surname was, was he the porter of the foot gang or the dock pick-up?" ”

"This ......" The mother-in-law who defended was stopped for a while.

Yun Xiu ruthlessly revealed the hidden secret: "It's freezing outside, it's the winter solstice, and the big families in Yangzhou City are celebrating the festival in their own mansions, and there are only some small people who visit the door, and a few mothers are naturally too lazy to go out, so they call a small guy to answer the door and take a few copper coins to send away." ”

In one sentence, the faces of the three mothers-in-law were red and white.

Yun Xiu snorted coldly: "If the three mothers have any grievances, they just have to defend themselves in front of their grandmother." ”

After saying that, she didn't have time to talk nonsense, opened the curtain, tightened her cloak and went straight to the door.

With only the memory of the fate of the previous life, Yun Xiu soon found that the Zhongyi Marquis and his party were across the street.

Probably just cares about playing, the tall Zhongyi Hou Lingxiao is dressed very casually, with sharp and angular jaws and stubble, disorganized, unkempt, and the same is true of the people who follow him, not to mention the little guy who doesn't know how to read people, if Yun Xiu hasn't seen the deity, I'm afraid he will admit his mistake.

"Master Hou, please wait!" When she saw Ling Xiao on the horse, she knew that he was leaving, so she didn't care about the courtesy, trotted all the way, blocked in front of the horse, raised her head and said urgently, "The slave maid is the old lady's personal maid Chun Tao, the old man's body is not good in the cold weather, and the girls are not out of the pavilion There is a lot of inconvenience, the slave and maid boldly ask the Hou Ye to look at the face of the third master of Yunyu Shi and Dingguo Mansion, and give him a chance to make amends." ”

The third master of the Dingguo Mansion is the second brother-in-law, and Yun Yushi is the father.

Yun Xiu was in a hurry to take out two hole cards and gamble.
