Mrs. Lou's face was majestic, but she was actually very good at talking.

Zheng Xian'er called Cheng's shopkeeper and told her about the predicament of the business, so she just sighed again and again that it was not easy to make money, and then asked Zheng Xian'er to go back to her home to raise the baby.

Of course, it is necessary to arrange for a few more servants to take care of the pregnant woman's daily life. Zheng Xian'er made a respectful and docile appearance and agreed again and again, and did not refuse.

After the refreshments, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had already held hands with each other and talked affectionately.

A guy broke into the yard. Mrs. Han hurriedly led someone to stop her, and Mrs. Lou's face showed a little displeasure: "The people outside really have no rules!" The hostess's inner house can also be broken into? ”

Xiaozhi glanced out, a little worried: "Ershanzi has always understood the rules, shouldn't there be any urgency?" ”

"In that case, let him come to the door." Mrs. Lou ordered in a deep voice.

Ershanzi had just come back from outside, and he didn't know the identity of Mrs. Lou. Through the door curtain, he only saw a figure sitting with Zheng Xian'er, he didn't pay attention to it, rushed to the door and hurriedly opened his mouth: "Owner, there are legends outside...... said that our chastity archway was splashed with dung, and many people were watching the joke! ”

There was a soft "bang", and the tea cup in Mrs. Lou's hand was put on the table.

Zheng Xian'er was slightly stunned, and then smiled: "Others like to smell the smell, so let them go, this is also worth coming back to talk about as a thing?" You're not going to join in the fun, are you? Be careful when you come back with the stench, Shopkeeper Cheng will beat you! ”

Er Shanzi breathed a sigh of relief outside, and said cautiously: "The little one didn't go, I heard it outside." In addition to this, there is ......"

Zheng Xian'er tapped the table twice and said lightly: "There is no need to say it." There are a lot of boring people in this world, we have something to do, and we don't have to join in the fun. You don't care if they splash feces or dog blood, anyway, it's not us who are dirty, and it's not us who smells! ”

Ershanzi agreed outside, and seemed to be much more relaxed.

In the house, Mrs. Lou blushed and asked in a deep voice, "What else is there besides this matter?" ”

Zheng Xian'er's heart jumped, and before she could stop it, Er Shanzi had already replied outside: "Also, since yesterday at noon, some ugly words have been coming out one after another. The little ones went out to inquire, and the root cause was that those wild tricks who told stories and sang in downtown restaurants made up some jokes about the owner's story, some of which were said and sung, all of which were very ...... It's unbearable. ”

"What do they say?" Mrs. Lou asked coldly.

Er Shanzi didn't think much about it, and said: "It's just made up some weird stories in the market, or some slang obscene songs and songs." The stories are all patchwork, with the names of the owner and the fifth son, and they are made up vividly as if they had seen it with their own eyes, and some people like to listen to it seriously......"

"Bastard, bastard!" Mrs. Lou was so angry that she trembled, and the Buddha beads in her hand fell to the ground with a "snap", and the person rolled her eyes, and she was actually angry.

Ruier hurriedly pounced, pinched and patted her chest, and was busy for a while, and finally heard an "ouch", and Mrs. Lou woke up crying.

Rui'er was crying so much that she couldn't breathe, and when she saw that Mrs. Lou was awake, she knelt on the ground and cried.

Zheng Xian'er's expression was flat, and there was not even a tear in her eyes. Seeing Mrs. Lou looking up to find someone, she got up and leaned over and stretched out her hand to help: "Mrs. Xu is tired, let's go to the inner room to rest first?" ”

Mrs. Lou slapped on the back of her hand, and then grabbed it hard, held the hand in her palm, and cried: "My son, how can this be good! ”

Zheng Xian'er's wrist injury was not healed yet, and she only felt a piercing pain when she was holding it so much.

Despite this, she didn't show it at all, but smiled faintly: "The gossip in the market has never been broken." Let them just say that I won't be short of meat! ”

Mrs. Lou shook her head, and her tears flowed even more fiercely: "You are not afraid of rumors, but what about Que'er's future?" He will enter the court in the future, and if he is said to be of bad character, he will ......"

Zheng Xian'er was still listening patiently, but Mrs. Lou stopped by herself.

She didn't say much, Zheng Xian'er was also happy to be quiet, and hurriedly called Xiaozhi over, and helped Mrs. Lou into the inner room together.

Mrs. Lou sat on the edge of the bed, but refused to lie down, but took away the twig and grabbed Zheng Xian'er's two hands together.

"What does the wife command?" Zheng Xian'er had a reassuring smile on her face.

Mrs. Lou seemed to be really at ease, and her expression gradually calmed down: "I have an idea, can you listen to it." ”

Zheng Xian'er nodded: "Mrs. 's idea must be feasible." ”

Mrs. Lou looked at her deeply and pondered the words: "People are like rivers, and it is better to be sparse than blocked." Now that the rumors have risen, you can't suppress them, but you've always been smart, so you must have a way to spread new rumors, right? ”

Zheng Xian'er thought for a while and did not deny it: "If there are new rumors to cover up this matter, of course it is the best." ”

If these rumors are only boiling in Sangyu County today, she is not afraid of ten times more unpleasant to hear. But what if it gets out? Especially when it comes to the capital?

She's a cheeky one, but Lou Que's future can't be joked!

Mrs. Lou rubbed Zheng Xian'er's hand, and sighed for a long time: "Even the imperial court has not been able to cover up this matter for another day, and the gossip on the side is only afraid that it will be even more useless." I was thinking—"

Zheng Xian'er listened quietly and didn't intend to interject.

So Mrs. Lou had to continue: "Since ancient times, the rumors in the market have been the most talked about, one is the hidden affairs of the inner house, and the other is ...... Strange powers. ”

That's a very pertinent statement. Zheng Xian'er tasted it carefully and nodded slightly.

The private relationship between her and Lou Que is considered a "hidden matter in the inner house", so Mrs. Lou is planning to work the four words "strange power and chaos"?

Sure enough, Mrs. Lou saw her nodding, and immediately continued: "My idea is that let's spread some new rumors, just say that the child in your womb is actually Hong'er's." ”

Zheng Xian'er was stunned: "The third master's? ”

"That's right," Mrs. Lou sat up straight, "just say it's Hong'er!" We can buy a few witches and gods to testify, and if you put it mildly, some people will naturally believe it. ”

Rao is Zheng Xian'er herself often thinks wildly, and she couldn't help but be stunned when she heard this.

Mrs. Lou chattered and told her all about her plans:

——The third young grandmother of the Lou family has often had nightmares since she entered the door, and at first she thought it was evil, but later invited a master to come to the door, only to know that it was the soul of the third master who learned that she had married her daughter-in-law and came back to the round house at night to get married.

- As for the things in the womb of Lou San's grandmother, of course, it is the bloodline of the third master of the Lou family, just because she is a ghost fetus, she is afraid that it will be too appalling to say it, so the mansion has been hiding it to the death, and she does not dare to let outsiders know.

- On the guillotine that day, the matter was suddenly revealed, and Lou San's grandmother was afraid that the son in her womb would be harmed as a "monster", so she was unwilling to admit that she was pregnant. In order to keep the bloodline of his deceased brother, the fifth prince was willing to damage his own reputation and took the matter on himself.

……

Zheng Xian'er listened to Mrs. Lou's words, but she only felt absurd, more false and ridiculous than any strange talk about the mountains.

Seeing that she was still hesitating, Mrs. Lou grabbed her hand and sighed: "I think about it, and only this one way can save some reputation for Que Er." At this point, I don't dare to expect everyone to believe it, as long as one out of ten believes our words, I will be satisfied. Alas, this is a bit unpleasant...... But after all, the future of the living is more important! ”

Zheng Xian'er thought about it carefully, narrowed her eyes and smiled: "The rumors in the market do prefer gods and ghosts. It's just that...... If they really believed, would my child really be treated as a monster? Compared to the current predicament, I am more afraid of seeing people chasing and intercepting me to get rid of the 'ghost fetus'. ”

"That won't be!" Mrs. Lou hurriedly said, "If Que'er's reputation is restored, the world's trust and respect for him will increase by three points." He fights for the child whose reputation he wants to pretend, and the people of Sangyu County will not move. What's more, now that there is no Li County Order, that Li County is grateful to our family and will definitely be willing to help with this. ”

Zheng Xian'er leaned on the side of the bed and closed her eyes and thought for a long time, and finally sighed: "Mrs. is thoughtful. But - I don't say yes! ”

Mrs. Lou's face changed, and she got up and got out of bed: "Don't agree?" Do you know how bad Que'er's reputation has been now? Do you know how much such a reputation can interfere with his future?! ”

"I know," Zheng Xian'er also straightened up, "no matter how bad his reputation is, it will never be worse than mine!" As for his future, if this little thing gets in the way of his future, it only proves that he is only capable of it! ”

"You ......" Mrs. Lou turned blue with anger, "You never loved him at all, you only loved yourself!" ”

Zheng Xian'er got up and walked to the dressing table and sat down, and put on makeup in the mirror: "Mrs. is right." I've only loved one person in my life, and that's myself. But there may be one more in the future - this child in my womb, I will not let him come to the world with the reputation of 'monster'. He is a normal child, his father and mother are both living people, he is not a ghost fetus. ”

Mrs. Lou exhaled a few heavily, tried her best to suppress her anger, gritted her teeth, and said, "It's just a statement, where is it really hindering your child?" You can't bear your child to be treated as a monster, how can you bear to watch Que Er being scolded as an indecent beast like a pig and a dog? You guys...... You've been with him for more than half a year, and you really don't have any affection? You feel sorry for your child, but he is the father of your child! ”

Zheng Xian'er hooked half of the corners of her lips, revealing a little disdain: "I have made up my mind, Mrs. doesn't need to say it." ”

"Good, good!" Mrs. Lou stood firm on the corner of the table, her face full of anger.

Zheng Xian'er poked her head out of the screen and called, "Rui'er, it's not early, let's help my wife out!" There is a carriage in the courtyard, just ask a guy to drive you back to your house. ”

Rui'er wiped the corners of her eyes and turned around, although she lowered her head, she could still see that her expression was a little angry.

Mrs. Lou put her hand on Rui'er's shoulder, looking older and more tired than usual.

Zheng Xian'er turned her face away and refused to look again.

Mrs. Lou stayed by her side for a moment and sneered: "You only care about your children, and I only care about my children." Let's - we'll see! ”

Zheng Xian'er didn't answer, and Mrs. Lou didn't care, so she left directly.

After a while, Xiaozhi lifted the curtain and came in, with a worried face: "Why did you quarrel with your wife?" Although we are not afraid of her now, it is more convenient to have her to protect us after all! ”

Zheng Xian'er leaned back in the chair and said in a muffled voice: "I don't want to mess with her." But she's scheming about me everywhere, and I can't watch her sell me and count the money for her happily, right? ”

Xiaozhi was a little unconvinced: "What did she calculate for you?" I think she had a great idea! ”

"It's really good," Zheng Xian'er sneered, "I belong to the Lou family, these two shops belong to the Lou family, and the child in my belly is also from the Lou family—they have all become the Lou family, so what is mine?" ”

Xiaozhi thought about it carefully, pursed his lips and smiled: "I said that you are the Lou family, and the Lou family is naturally yours." ”

"No," Zheng Xian'er shook her head, "My children and I, along with the two shops I have worked so hard to run, are all objects belonging to the Lou family. Mrs. is the mistress of the Lou family, and she can dispose of the Lou family's things at will, and we, as 'things', cannot resist. ”

Xiaozhi came over to break up Zheng Xian'er's hair bun, and her brows furrowed slightly: "You mean that Mrs. is here to demonstrate to you?" She wants to take our store for herself? ”

Zheng Xian'er pursed the corners of her lips: "It can't be said that it is 'taking it for yourself'." She always felt that my shop and ours belonged to her in the first place. She came here to use her identity as the owner to make what she thought was a more reasonable arrangement for her private property. ”

Twig smiled again: "Maybe so. But no master is at odds with his property. She asked you to go back to the house to raise the baby, and she also discussed with you how to save the reputation of the fifth master, which is not a bad thing after all! Why do you have to tear your face with her? ”

Zheng Xian'er raised her head and looked at her with a smile: "Do you really think so?" ”

Twig nodded, but a mischievous smile appeared on his face.

Zheng Xian'er raised her hand and poked her chin twice: "You know my thoughts, why do you want to test me so much?" It's true that I sold it to the Lou family, but I couldn't buy a cash cow for 60 taels of silver at the beginning! They want me to go out and make money, and they want to take the money I earn into their own pockets; Not only do I want my child to continue the incense for the third room, but I also want me to be willing to be grateful-she really coaxed me for a fool! ”

"You take your breath!" Xiaozhi smiled and patted Zheng Xian'er on the back, "No matter how bad that person is, it's your mother-in-law, just listen to your complaining words, let outsiders hear it and scold you for being unfilial!" ”

"Humph!" Zheng Xian'er angrily threw the comb in her hand, "Before she crossed the river, she planned to demolish the bridge, and she was not afraid of drowning herself!" ”

Xiaozhi saw that she was still losing her temper, so she had to smile helplessly and comfort: "Okay, okay!" Who made you a daughter-in-law? Originally, you were not afraid of heaven and earth, but now you are still good with other people's sons? For your lover's sake, how much will you take care of? ”

"I'm angry, why do you always help her talk?" Zheng Xian'er was a little dissatisfied.

Xiaozhi smiled and said, "Isn't that pitiful that she can't fight you?" Tell me, what idea did you come up with this time to make her plan fall through? ”

Zheng Xian'er scratched her sore scalp and sighed with a smile: "What idea can I think of?" Let her go! If she wants to save Kiritai's reputation, I don't have to stop her. ”

"Huh?" Twig exclaimed.

Zheng Xian'er stood up and added: "However, if you want me to personally agree to give this child to the third room, that's a dream!" ”

Chun Xing ran in from outside, trying to calm down her voice: "Grandma, Sister Rui'er is going back with Mrs. Rui." Both of them have a bad look on their faces, did you quarrel? ”

"How so?" Zheng Xian'er smiled, "We talked about some business matters, I'm afraid my wife is worried about us, right?" ”

Chun Xing let out a long sigh of relief: "It's okay if it's not a quarrel, but it scares me to death!" ”

Zheng Xian'er patted the girl's shoulder and said with a smile: "How can there be so many fights!" Did you see the business in the store when you were out there before? ”

Chun Xing hurriedly said: "Three or four more groups of guests came in the afternoon, and they all bought some things more or less, but I listened to the meaning of the shopkeeper Cheng, and it seems that I can't make any money." ”

Zheng Xian'er nodded, still unimpressed: "Stay up slowly, it will always get better." ”

Xiaozhi asked in surprise: "Boiled slowly?" Grandma isn't going to think of a way? ”

Zheng Xian'er opened the door and walked to the porch, pulled a wicker stick, looked at the slightly bulging buds, and said for a long time: "Judging from the current situation, I'm afraid there is no good way." My reputation is stinking, and who of those ladies and ladies is willing to wear the clothes and jewelry of the Pavilion? ”

"What then? Is it really going to be closed? Chun Xing was also anxious.

Zheng Xian'er pondered for a long time, and suddenly snapped and broke the wicker in her hand: "Yes, close the door!" ”

"Are you crazy?!" Twig screamed.

Zheng Xian'er turned back to the room and sat down, and ordered in a cold voice: "Go and invite the shopkeeper Cheng over for me!" ”

Of course, the shopkeeper Cheng came out of nowhere, and shouted as he entered the door: "Did the owner come up with any good way again?" If you have something to say, just give me orders, and it won't hurt if you break my leg! ”

Zheng Xian'er looked up and smiled at him: "You always sit first, sit firmly so as not to fall to the ground!" ”

Shopkeeper Cheng sat down as he said, his eyes widened and he waited for Zheng Xian'er's "clever plan".

Then Zheng Xian'er said calmly: "The business in the store will be done as usual, and besides, you will quietly pay attention to see if anyone wants to buy our shop." ”

"What?" Shopkeeper Cheng suspected that he had heard something.

Zheng Xian'er leaned back in the chair and said with a smile: "I suddenly want to go to the capital." There is no hurry, in two or three months. ”

Shopkeeper Cheng stayed for a long time, frowning for a while and grinning for a while, and Zheng Xian'er didn't bother him.

It wasn't until Chun Xing added tea that Shopkeeper Cheng slapped it heavily on the table: "If you go to the capital, you will go to the capital!" Owner, you want to drive the Decoration Pavilion to the capital, but you must take my old Cheng with you! ”

Zheng Xian'er narrowed her eyes and looked at him with a smile: "The Jin Pavilion has been beaten into my hands, and there has been an accident at two ends in three days, are you still willing to follow me?" What's wrong with you changing to a new owner and still being your big shopkeeper? ”

Shopkeeper Cheng shook his head again and again: "Don't make fun of me, I just obeyed you and made up my mind to follow you!" Besides, people go to high places and water flows to low places, since there is a chance to go to the capital, why don't I follow? ”

"The capital is not necessarily a 'high place'," Zheng Xian'er poured cold water on him, "I have never been out of Sangyu County, and when I get to the capital, my eyes will be black, maybe I will fall to the point of begging for food, are you sure you want to follow me?" ”

Shopkeeper Cheng "hehe" smiled: "Behind us is the Lou family, how can we beg for food?" Besides, there are five sons......"

Zheng Xian'er's face sank, and she shook her head seriously: "There is no Lou family, and there is no fifth son." I go alone, and I don't rely on anyone. ”

Shopkeeper Cheng's face became serious.

Zheng Xian'er took a sip of the tea bowl, revealing a self-deprecating wry smile.

After a while, Shopkeeper Cheng smiled again: "There is no reason for a lone woman to dare to do something, and I dare not do it as an old man." Boss, you can't scare me! ”

Zheng Xian'er blinked and laughed: "How dare you?" ”

"Dare!" Shopkeeper Cheng slapped the table again: "Don't worry, two or three months is enough for us to sort out the business here!" When the time comes, sell here, go to the capital to reopen a Jinge, we can still make a comeback! ”

"Okay," Zheng Xian'er replied calmly, "You can also inform Shopkeeper Liu if you are free, and see how he chooses." ”

Shopkeeper Cheng agreed one by one, and seeing that Zheng Xian'er seemed to be sad, he also had to comfort him: "Don't worry, the owner can rest assured, although two or three months will not make us much profit, but it is enough to recover - these two stores will not be sold cheaply!" ”

"I know that." Zheng Xian'er laughed again.

Of course, she knew that she wouldn't sell it cheaply. If you want to sell it cheaply, you can get rid of it now.

After sending off the shopkeeper Cheng, Xiaozhi hurriedly came over: "You want to sell the store and go to the capital to find him?" ”

Zheng Xian'er lazily lay down on the soft couch: "What are you looking for him to do?" It's just because I can't get along in Sangyu County. Those idlers dare to splash dung on the archway today, and dare to splash it on me tomorrow, can I not go? ”

"That makes sense," Xiao Zhi laughed meaningfully, "Then why do you have to go to the capital?" ”

"People go to high places, and water flows to low places!" Zheng Xian'er answered very smoothly.

Twig looked at her and pursed her lips and smiled.

Zheng Xian'er simply got up and entered the inner room, kicked off her shoes and got into the tent, and the whole person lay on the bed in a "big" shape: "Good and dignified, why should I be angry in a small county town?" The scenery of the capital is prosperous, with gold and silver everywhere, and there are beauties like clouds......"

Xiaozhi followed in, and when she heard this, she couldn't help but tease her: "Yes, the beauty of the capital is like a cloud!" Maybe by the time you find someone, he'll already have a bunch of wives and concubines around him! ”

Zheng Xian'er turned over, still lying in the shape of a "big": "Who cares if his wives and concubines are in groups!" I've long been fed up with those crooked melons and cracked dates men in Sangyu County, and this time I go to the capital, I will definitely find a few good-looking ones who look better than him! ”

Xiaozhi nodded seriously, looking at Zheng Xian'er's stomach: "Grandma, with all due respect: in two or three months, your waist should be almost as thick as a bucket!" ”

"So what?" Zheng Xian'er asked rhetorically, "Even if my waist is as thick as a bucket, then I am also a bucket waist beauty!" ”

"Yes," Xiaozhi laughed, "bucket waist beauty, I wish you to read all the beautiful men in the city after entering Beijing, and thousands of peach blossoms will bloom!" ”
