Chapter 127: Strength

Seeing the vermilion gate of King Qi's Mansion, Ling Xiu'er couldn't help but change her face, she didn't expect that the palace that the money shopkeeper said would be King Qi's mansion. Princess Qi's arrogant face unconsciously appeared in her mind, and she couldn't help clenching her veil angrily, it was really a narrow road.

"Miss Ling, this is it."

The money shopkeeper didn't notice Ling Xiu'er's small movements, and told her to follow her tightly and not get into trouble. The Qi Wangfu is also considered a relative of the emperor, and it is light to be kicked out if you don't pay attention to it.

Ling Xiu'er responded and followed the money shopkeeper into the small door.

Led by the guide boy, Ling Xiu'er and the shopkeeper Qian first passed through a magnificent courtyard gate, and then walked through the verandah through the side door in the corner to the warehouse.

It is said that the warehouse is actually a large courtyard, and the maids are very busy in and out, and there are all kinds of items piled up in the center of the courtyard, obviously preparing for a grand banquet.

Steward Hu stood on the steps of the main room and instructed the subordinates to do things, and when the man left, the shopkeeper stepped forward and said with both hands and fists: "Steward Hu, you are safe." ”

Steward Hu is a middle-aged man with a dark face, and he is not easy to mess with by looking at his face. He beckoned to the money shopkeeper, who immediately asked the man who came with him to present the dyed cloth.

"Steward Hu, this is the improved cloth sample of our dyeing workshop, look at this color, it is glamorous! will definitely not lose the face of the palace. ”

Steward Hu raised his eyelids, and his thin fingers turned over the fabric, "Qian San, it's well dyed." This craft is about to catch up with the royal court. ”

"You lift, how can it be difficult for my small shop to compare with the palace, just thinking about giving you less money and enough quality."

The money shopkeeper's sycophant was embarrassed by Ling Xiuer.

She couldn't help coughing lightly, Steward Hu raised her eyelids, pointed at Ling Xiu'er and asked, "Who is this woman?" ”

The money shopkeeper hurriedly introduced, "She is the Oiran Lingxiuer voted by the embroidery girl, and she is very good at embroidery." ”

"Oh, the embroidered deer will run that?" Steward Hu said casually, "But the embroidery at the old lady's birthday banquet has made the first square in the world round, so let's talk about it again when we have a chance." ”

After speaking, Steward Hu beckoned, and the people who were waiting in the back stepped forward to report the situation, and casually squeezed the money shopkeeper down.

Ling Xiu'er was unwilling, this housekeeper dog was fighting for people, what kind of stand was he putting on as a slave!

She was trying to reason with Steward Hu, but was stopped by the money shopkeeper and asked her not to cause trouble.

Ling Xiu'er didn't want to pull the money shopkeeper into the water, so she swallowed her resentment into her stomach and prepared to leave. Suddenly stopped by Steward Hu.

"The one who can embroider deer, wait a minute."

The proud tone dragged on for a long time, as if Ling Xiu'er was a livestock in the pen, and Steward Hu would obediently go over as soon as she shouted.

Ling Xiu'er didn't, she continued to walk forward as if she couldn't hear it, until Steward Hu sent someone to stop her, and pretended to be surprised: "Are you sure you called me?" Isn't the embroidery work all made the first square in the world round? ”

Ling Xiu'er asked reasonably, and the money shopkeeper on the side couldn't help but sweat for her.

Steward Hu didn't find fault anymore, he disdained to talk to people like Ling Xiu'er, and said slowly: "The first-class embroidery girl in the world's first workshop has a cold and can't hold an unstable embroidery needle, and the matter of embroidering the old lady's dress will be handed over to you, don't let me down." ”

Steward Hu took a sip of the teacup as he spoke, and then spit on the ground with a "bah", "What kind of tea is brewed, the fragrance is gone!" ”

The serving maid hurriedly took it away, and another maid carried a hot face towel for Steward Hu to wipe his hands.

He wiped and said: "The palace is not a dilapidated countryside, you embroider to keep up with the trend of the capital, graceful atmosphere, meaning beautiful, understand?" ”

"Understood." Ling Xiu'er blessed her body, and then asked, "Steward Hu, when will the embroidery money ......be settled?"

"If you embroider well, it will naturally knot." Steward Hu didn't look at Ling Xiu'er for a moment.

Ling Xiu'er took a deep breath and said, "When will it be given?" Ten days, a month, a year, or ten years? ”

"Huh? Are you afraid that the palace will not pay you? Steward Hu opened one eye angrily, as if he had seen something incredible.

Ling Xiu'er smiled, "It's not that I'm worried, I embroidered for the princess once before, and in the end, I didn't get kicked out by you before I took a penny." ”

Good guy, the businessman who negotiated terms with the palace, Ling Xiu'er is the first one.

Steward Hu looked at Ling Xiu'er carefully, and a pair of sesame mung bean eyes narrowed vigilantly. This girl's mouth is quite powerful.

The money shopkeeper hurriedly played a round, "Steward Hu, Miss Ling is quick to talk, don't be like her, I apologize for Miss Ling." ”

Steward Hu shook his head, "No, I, Hu someone, like this kind of open-mindedness." Ling Xiu'er, if you don't embroider well, don't blame me for cutting off your head. ”

"Steward Hu is serious, I haven't seen much of the world since I came from the countryside, please bear with me." Ling Xiu'er deliberately went against Steward Hu, she didn't fight for steamed buns, and she didn't want to be looked down upon.

"Oh, you woman is a strong woman." Steward Hu scolded with a smile, his face improved a lot, "If you can embroider the old lady's satisfactory color, how much money will be rewarded." ”

"Thank you Steward Hu, the little girl will not fail in her mission."

"Stand down." Steward Hu waved his hand, "Qian San, don't forget to go to the account room to get the deposit, don't spread it out and say that our Qi Wangfu owes labor money." ”

"Thank you, Steward Hu, thank you, Steward Hu."

The money shopkeeper happily followed the account office to receive the money, and Ling Xiuer also got her own share.

On the way out of the palace, the money shopkeeper said excitedly: "Miss Ling is really courageous, it is the first time for me to get the money so quickly." The shopkeeper said this very sadly, if he wasn't afraid of the Qi Palace, he wouldn't have taken the work of the Qi Palace. Steward Hu said that it would end once a year, but in fact, there were often things that dragged on for three or five or six years, and they didn't dare to come to collect debts, but opposite was the Qi Wangfu, the emperor's royal brother, and if he didn't get it, he would have to cut off his head.

Ling Xiu'er smiled lightly, "Money shopkeeper, you have a good temper and don't make enemies, and a thorn like me is not as popular as you." ”

The money shopkeeper shook his head, "Oh, girl, don't be modest. ”

The two left the palace with a smile and a smile, sweeping away the previous haze.

When she was about to leave the palace, Ling Xiu'er couldn't help but glance back, since she entered the warehouse, she had been feeling that someone was secretly staring at her.

"Miss Ling, is there anything else?"

Ling Xiu'er shook her head and followed the money shopkeeper out of the palace.

There was a secret pavilion in the depths of the palace, Zhao Zheng stood in front of the pavilion in a black python robe, monitoring every move in the mansion, and Ling Xiu'er's actions just now naturally fell into his eyes.

Zhao Zheng stood with his hands down and asked Zhang Ze behind him, "That woman is Cao Yu's wife?" ”

"Back to the prince, it is Cao Yu's wife, Ling Xiu'er."
