Chapter Seventy-Two: The Way of the Man
When he came to the Cyclamen Place, Xiao Er took Lin Jiu to the private room, and a richly dressed woman with a square face and big eyes stood up inside. And next to it, it is clearly the eldest lady of the Yan family who has had an unpleasant relationship with Lin Jiu, Yan Chunhua.
"Miss Lin is here, please take a seat." Liu Qin smiled and gave up her seat, secretly surprised in her heart.
Yan Chunhua said so much about how Lin Jiu could earn money, but she didn't mention it, she actually looked so charming and moving. The complexion is like snow, the eyebrows are affectionate, and the slender body is wearing a well-fitting lilac dress, covered with a silver-white coat, revealing a lively and elegant youthful atmosphere.
Liu Qin frowned quietly, it is naturally good to be able to make money, but this girl is also too good-looking. All the concubines in her backyard add up, I'm afraid they are not as good as her color. If such a stunner is placed in front of Ma Baoqi, whether he can hold it down is still two words.
I saw Yan Chunhua pick up the chrysanthemum tea in front of her, and said to Lin Jiu with a smile: "Miss Lin, Sister Liu invited you over today, in fact, she was also entrusted by me. I offended the girl in the past, and today I specially make amends, there are a lot of Miss Haiqing, don't worry about me. ”
Lin Jiu raised his eyes to look, but found that Yan Chunhua's eyes moved away when they touched him. She laughed secretly in her heart, was she afraid that she wouldn't know that she had a bad heart?
"Miss Yan is serious, it's all a misunderstanding, don't mind." Lin Jiu smiled slightly, and also picked up the teacup and raised it to Yan Chunhua.
"Yes, yes. It's all a misunderstanding, and we'll still be good sisters in the future. Liu Qinle said hehehe. His eyes kept sweeping over Lin Jiu's face.
"Let's eat first, the roast venison in this cyclamen is the most famous in Montenegro County. The phenomenon is soft and melts in the mouth, making it a rare delicacy. Yan Chunhua's heart was beating non-stop, and she was also a little nervous.
The roast venison is indeed delicious, the red slices of meat with the sauce are delicious and tempting, and when you bite into it, your mouth is full of gravy.
Lin Jiu unceremoniously ate meat, while Yan Chunhua on the side kept praising Lin Jiu.
"Forsythia, don't just look at me here. Go pour a glass of wine for Miss Lin. Yan Chunhua instructed the girl beside her.
The one named Forsythia agreed, picked up a delicate green jade wine glass from the side, and filled it with wine for Lin Jiu.
"Miss Lin, you taste this wine. This is the spirits brewed by our Yan family's winery, which is exclusively for large customers and cannot be bought on the market. Yan Chunhua proudly introduced.
Lin Jiu raised his eyebrows, this was to get himself drunk. I took the wine glass and smelled it, but it was only more than 30 degrees, which was not too strong wine. If this kind of wine can satisfy those powerful people, you can make it yourself.
Glancing at Yan Chunhua, Lin Jiu felt a little guilty in his heart. I'm really embarrassed, I found another business opportunity, and I want to rob the Yan family's business again.
Yan Chunhua didn't notice Lin Jiu's little eyes, her heart was beating hard. Staring at Lin Jiu's hand holding the cup, he kept shouting in his heart: "Drink, drink." ”
Lin Jiu glanced at her contemptuously, covered his face with his sleeve, raised his hand, and praised: "It's really good wine." Produced by the Yan family, it really lives up to its reputation. ”
Yan Chunhua's eyes shone with excitement. Now it's up to you to run away.
The moment Lin Jiu picked up the wine glass, he found that the wine in the glass was cloudy, and it seemed to be mixed with something. She silently covered her mouth with her sleeve and gently poured the wine on the handkerchief in her sleeve.
She wanted to see what these two people wanted to do.
After eating for a while, Lin Jiu pretended to be overwhelmed, his eyes were struggling to open, and his speech was slurred.
Yan Chunhua had a smug look on her face and exchanged glances with Liu Qin.
"Miss Lin, Miss Lin." She called softly.
Lin Jiu hummed and agreed, as if his consciousness was not very clear. Yan Chunhua exhaled heavily, this is done.
"Sister Liu, hurry up and take her away." Yan Chunhua was a little impatient. She couldn't wait to see the fate of Lin Jiu being accepted as a concubine by the county order.
Aren't you proud and look down on people? will make you the most despicable person, and you will not be able to turn over for the rest of your life. Otherwise, how can you take the hatred in my heart? A vicious smile appeared on Yan Chunhua's lips.
Liu Qin said with satisfaction: "It's good now, with this cornucopia, the matter of the master's promotion that requires silver should be solved." ”
Liu Qin's face was both relieved and faintly unwilling. Although he has long lost his thoughts about Ma Baoqi's bad thing, he still feels a little uncomfortable when he sees him with such a stunner again.
Yan Chunhua was even more happy, she reminded while laughing: "Sister, wait until the matter is completed." Don't forget to say a few kind words to the county magistrate, we will work together to promote this girl's idea, and we will definitely make a lot of money. ”
"Don't worry, you won't forget your sister."
The two women only cared about the good things in the future, and they talked passionately. Lin Jiu, who pretended to be drugged on the side, sneered in his heart, Yan Chunhua, Yan Chunhua, your mind is really poisonous. In order to make himself work for the Yan family, he actually pulled the county commander's wife into the water.
It's a pity that you're going to be busy again this time.
"Forsythia, help Miss Lin into the carriage." Yan Chunhua instructed her henchman and big girl.
Forsythia agreed, picked up the groggy Lin Jiu, and came to the carriage parked next to the restaurant. The coachman had also gone to dinner at this time, and there was no one else here. Forsythia was about to help Lin Jiu into the car, but he felt a pain in the back of his neck and lost consciousness.
A ghostly figure quietly appeared behind Forsythia.
"Throw people in the wagon." Lin Jiu said, then took out a pill from his body and stuffed it into Forsythia's mouth.
She looked at the unconscious big girl and sighed in her heart. I'm sorry, who let you follow a master with a heart like a femme fatale. The sins created by the master can only be repaid by you, the girl, first. However, you don't have to worry, sooner or later, your master will not end well.
The coldness on Lin Jiu's face made Jia Yi on the side tremble. He whispered, "Girl, what did you give her?" ”
It can't be poison, wait for someone to send it to the county mansion and find a dead body in the carriage, then the mess will be big.
Lin Jiu glanced at him and said disdainfully: "This is a soft tendon, after eating, you are conscious, even if you can't move and can't speak." The effect of the drug can last for about a day. When the drug has passed, everything is a foregone conclusion. ”
Thinking about Liuqin's horror when she found out that the person had been replaced, she couldn't help but want to laugh. By the way, if Yan Chunhua found out that her nemesis had escaped her trick once, but the girl who had been with her for many years folded in, I don't know if she would be mad?
"Hahaha." Thinking of that, Lin Jiu actually laughed, and the expression on his face was very happy.
This is called stealing chickens and rice. This time it was a small punishment and a big commandment, if there was a next time, she wouldn't mind sending Yan Chunhua directly to the bed of Ma County's order. I don't know if it's because I'm too carried away, or if I'm serving too many people around me. Yan Chunhua didn't notice that her big girl was gone.
She and Liu Qin talked while eating, and imagined a good life in the future. After being full of wine and food, he happily returned to Yan's house.
It wasn't until the next morning, when Yan Chunhua finished grooming and planned to go to the shop to inspect after breakfast, that she found that the forsythia who had always been by her side was not there.
"What's the matter, that Nizi is lazy again, and she can't come back yet, delaying me from going out and peeling her skin."
The little girl on the side replied tremblingly: "Miss Qiyu, Sister Forsythia hasn't come back since she went out yesterday. I wasn't in the house last night. ”
What the? Haven't come back?
Yan Chunhua frowned, looked at her other girl, Qingqian, and asked, "What's the matter, I didn't come back yesterday, why didn't you tell me earlier?" ”
Qing Qian's heart was pounding and explained: "The slave maid thought that Sister Forsythia was doing something for Miss, so she didn't dare to ask. ”
Qingqian is also a first-class girl next to Yan Chunhua, but she is always pressed by forsythia. She was already unconvinced, so when she found out that Forsythia hadn't come back yesterday, she didn't report it to her master or the housekeeper as soon as possible. I thought in my heart that I would sue her the next day, so that she would lose the favor of the young lady, and she would have a chance.
"Confused, you didn't tell me about such a big thing earlier. Hurry up, let people find it. Yan Chunhua commanded, but a sense of foreboding surged in her heart. This felt very familiar, and she had the same feeling when she failed to calculate Lin Jiu the first few times.
Could it be that this time there is no way to do it? Yan Chunhua clenched her teeth tightly, trying to calm her chaotic heart.
