Chapter 209: Sick
Honest? It's strange that someone says I'm honest. Lin Wanrong was so happy that she wanted to laugh, and read the letterhead back and forth several times, there was no title or payment, but she didn't know who wrote it, the only thing that was certain was that it was written by a woman.
There were not many women he knew in Jinling City, and even fewer could write such letters. He thought about it for a while, and his heart lit up, it couldn't be her, right? Hey, that's a lot of fun.
Early the next morning, Xiao Yuruo really came to call him early, and the two discussed with the stewards how to expand after taking over the Tao family's shop.
The business scale of Taojia Buzhuang is only slightly smaller than that of the Xiao family, and this annexation, the scale of Xiaojia Buzhuang has been greatly improved by a grade, and it is already a giant that no one can match in Dahua. Of course, the profits of the silk business are getting thinner and thinner, and this is no longer the focus of the Xiao family at this stage. The prosperity of perfume and soap made Mrs. Xiao, the eldest lady, and everyone in the Xiao family full of confidence in the future of the Xiao family.
Perfume and soap can be said to be a monopoly business, and now due to the limitation of supply, it is only implemented in the nearby provinces of Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Anhui. When the output catches up next year, it will quickly expand to more than ten provinces across the country, and the situation will be even more spectacular. In this case, the eldest lady is more and more yearning for the upcoming trip to Beijing, and she has mentioned it several times in Lin Wanrong's ears, she plans to leave for Beijing on the third day of the Lunar New Year after the New Year.
Lin Wanrong naturally has no objections, the only thing he is worried about is Qiaoqiao's little girl.
When Dong Qingshan came, Lin Wanrong had just finished discussing with the eldest lady, and Qingshan excitedly grabbed him and said, "Big brother, we received the restaurant by the Qinhuai River." β
Needless to say, you are in the underworld. Can that guy hack you no matter how dark he is? Lin Wanrong nodded and said, "Did you encounter any trouble?" β
Qingshan said: "A little trouble. This guy didn't know where to climb Cheng Ruinian's high branch, and when we went, he was still very arrogant, shouting what happened to Cheng Gongzi, what would happen to the black dragon. Later, Beidou was angry and took the bench and smashed one of his legs, and the kid was stupid on the spot, and he didn't dare to put a fart, so he obediently packed up his things and got out. β
That's what the underworld does. Lin Wanrong smiled and said, "Then you have to pay special attention to the movements of the Black Dragon Society and Wu Zhenghu these days, the year is over, and it is not peaceful." Everyone is looking forward to getting a ticket for the New Year. β
Dong Qingshan snorted: "Who is not necessarily whom?" β
Lin Wanrong said: "What about Xiao Luo? His father is not at home these days, and I went to find Lao Luo for some things. β
Dong Qingshan said: "I'm afraid Xiao Luo won't be able to come today." Miss Luo seemed to have something happened yesterday, and after going back, she cried for most of the day, and no one could persuade her, and then she had a high fever and kept talking nonsense, and she didn't wake up until dawn. It just so happened that Master Luo had been absent from the house for the past few days, and Xiao Luo was worried about Miss Luo, so he watched her at home. β
Lin Wanrong was shocked and said, "What's wrong with Miss Luo?" Wasn't she okay yesterday? Why did you get sick? β
Dong Qingshan said: "Xiao Luo didn't make it clear when he sent someone to deliver the letter in the morning, and I don't know what happened. However, looking at the anxious appearance of his family, he should be very sick. By the way, big brother, didn't you go out with Miss Luo yesterday? What the hell is going on? Miss Luo is such a cheerful person, how did she become like this? β
Lin Wanrong thought about Luo Ning's demeanor yesterday, her concern for herself was not fake, but her respect for her teacher was true. Maybe the old woman surnamed Mei blamed her, she stood between herself and her teacher, and it was understandable that she was in a dilemma. Thinking of this, Lin Wanrong sighed and said, "It may be related to her teacher, I can't say anything about it." β
Dong Qingshan said: "Miss Luo is such a good person, if I knew who bullied her, I would definitely not be able to spare this bastard, and I would definitely beat him all over the ground to find teeth." β
Lin Wanrong nodded and said, "I'll beat you together." Alas, with such a head, why haven't you seen Lord Luo all the time? β
Dong Qingshan snorted: "Xiao Luo hasn't seen Master Luo for a few days. But listening to him, Lord Luo often does this. Thinking about it, it is understandable that people are such big officials, and they are a little busy. Let's just say that we Hongxing, now nearly a thousand brothers, eat, drink and play every day, and also keep me and Xiao Luo busy enough, not to mention that he is the head of a province of Lord Luo, and then there are thousands of servants and errands, all of whom have to eat public meals, and he has to manage so many people's daily eating, drinking, prostitution, gambling and smoking, which is not easy. β
Lin Wanrong laughed, what a green mountain, his words are not coarse, and he is very insightful. He thought of Luo Ning's illness, and his heart was also strange, he was still such a beautiful person yesterday, how could he say that he was sick.
He had a good relationship with Luo Ning, and he should have visited him, but he was afraid that he would meet that annoying old woman Mei in Luo's mansion, which would make Luo Ning even more embarrassed.
Lin Wanrong hesitated for a while, and said to Qingshan: "Has Qiaoqiao been to see Miss Luo?" β
Qingshan shook his head: "When Xiao Luo sent a letter in the morning, my sister had already gone to the new restaurant in Confucius Temple to arrange the decoration, but if she knew, she would definitely rush there immediately." β
Lin Wanrong smiled and said, "Qingshan, you go to Luo's house to help me inquire about something, and see if Miss Luo's teacher surnamed Mei lives in her house." β
"Okay, I'll go right away, big brother, is there anything wrong with you and Teacher Namei?" Aoyama nodded.
Lin Wanrong smiled helplessly: "This is a long story." Just go and find out. In addition, let Xiao Luo take good care of her sister, and I will go to see Miss Luo later. β
Seeing Qingshan's distant back, Lin Wanrong sighed lightly, although some of Luo Ning's ideas are a little unrealistic, but she is indeed a girl with pursuits. This girl, can't she really be angry because of yesterday's incident, then I'm guilty.
Lao Luo didn't know where to go, he couldn't find anyone for a few days, Lin Wanrong's time in Jinling was getting shorter and shorter, and every day he consumed was one day less. If Cheng De's matter cannot be solved, it will be equivalent to leaving a hidden danger, threatening Qiaoqiao and Lao Dong's family, which Lin Wanrong will never allow to see in her heart.
He couldn't stop being anxious in his heart, the elusive old man Xu Wei didn't know what he was busy with, he didn't see any movement in the white lotus, and there was no sound in the officialdom of Su Jingjiang, what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd?
Lin Wanrong was a little upset, kicked a small pebble, and landed in the lake in the garden, stirring up a circle of small waves, but he heard a chuckle of "poof", and a pleasant voice came into his ears.
"Second Miss, you've figured it out." When Lin Wanrong saw the innocent face with a little shyness, her heart suddenly became happy. A few days ago, Xiao Yushuang entered the meditation room, saying that it was the last few days of praying for blessings, and her mind must be sincere, and no one could disturb her. At this time, I saw her smiling face at first glance, how could I not let Lin Wanrong smile.
Xiao Yushuang pouted and said, "I've been standing beside you for a long time, and I haven't seen you look at me, are you thinking about others?" β
Second Miss's eyes are really poisonous, I'm really thinking about Luo Ning, Lin Wanrong is sweating profusely, this delicate little jade frost has a tendency to move closer to her sister.
"Where can I think of others?" Lin Wanrong smiled without blinking: "I'm worried, I haven't seen Yushuang in the past few days, and I believe it tightly." β
"Really" Xiao Yushuang looked at him with a smile, her eyes flashed with deep joy, and she said shyly: "Then why don't you come to see me these days." β
Lin Wanrong wiped the cold sweat on her forehead, it is best to coax a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl. He saw that there was no one around, and quietly took her little hand and said: "I want to see you every day, but the eldest lady said that in the last few days of your prayer, your heart must be sincere, and no one can disturb me. β
The little girl's face was hot when she heard this, and she said shyly: "When others go to see me, they are naturally disturbed, but when you go to visit me, my heart is full of joy and prayer is more sincere." You bad guy, you must have someone out there to forget about meβ"
Damn, isn't this chick hiding in the room and reading romance novels, so that seductive words can be spoken, the second lady glanced at him, and said quietly: "You bad person, I don't know where you were born, I am in the meditation room, thinking of you every day, torturing the dead." Even if you don't want me, I think about you every day. β
has improved, this chick's love words have improved again, Lin Wanrong sighed in her heart, and said tentatively: "Second Miss, what did you just say that I have someone outside?" β
Xiao Yushuang snorted and said: "You are a very bad person, you bullied me like that back then, who knows if you still bullied others outside?" If you bully someone, isn't there someone out there? β
Lin Wanrong sweated, this child's logic is really simple, but it is also very practical, the second lady leaned her head on his shoulder and said: "Sister said, you men want to bully us women and tell me to guard against you, but I don't want to guard against you." Even if you have someone outside, I miss you every day and miss you every day. My mother said, our woman's first time is the most precious, we must start from the beginning, I am like you, who else can I follow if I don't follow you? β
I'm the same as you, Lin Wanrong shouted in her heart, didn't she just kiss her mouth, pull her hand, and hit **, it's still far from that. But seeing the little girl's red face, he couldn't say the words of such a beast anyway - all turned into actual actions.
He gently pulled the second lady's thin willow waist into his arms, Xiao Yushuang sighed, and her delicate body snuggled in his arms fiery.
Lin Wanrong kissed her little earlobe lightly, and was about to make further moves, but saw Sande running over from afar and said, "Third brother, third brother, Lord Governor, please-"
