Chapter 658: The Third Month

After saying a cruel word in public, Princess Zhenzhen left.

However, instead of dispersing, the onlookers continued to take more and more stance.

Qiao Ran simply leaned on the side of the bed and dragged her cheeks to look at the situation outside.

"This is the real princess who robbed the man of a good family, you don't have to look at the person she was born to look like, but in fact she is ruthless, but she is powerful!" Some people shouted.

When she heard "robbing a man from a good family", Qiao Ran almost didn't squirt out the plum tea in her mouth all at once. I didn't expect this real princess to return to Chang'an not long ago, and she was so "famous", but it was indeed a skill.

"This woman is very bad, I heard that only a neat and neat man passed in front of her, and there was no good end to it." Someone continued.

As soon as these words came out, even though it attracted the exclamations of many men in the crowd who thought they were "neatly looking".

Qiao Ran looked at the men in the crowd downstairs who were "good and bad" and fell silent, and then heard someone ask again: "Who is that Xu Heyuan, who can actually make Princess Zhenzhen speak cruelly in public?" ”

I was curious and asked casually, but as soon as this question came out, the person who asked was ridiculed by many people in public.

"Dare to argue with Jin Zhi Yuye and surnamed Xu, you know which young lady it is with your toes!"

"Which one is the most powerful surname Xu in Chang'an City, don't you count it in your heart?"

"Even if you don't know Mrs. Xu, haven't you read the popular book? It's to write that Miss Xu Shi, the female official of Dali Temple and the same heavenly master! ”

……

Qiao Ran: "......" originally just wanted to see a lively scene, but I didn't expect to hear others mention his name when I watched the excitement.

Zhang Jie, who was also mentioned by name, stretched out his hand and handed over a piece of plum blossom cake, Qiao Ran reached out to take it, ate the plum blossom cake, and continued to look at the lively crowd downstairs.

Eating plum blossom cake and listening to gossip is really a joy in life.

"I heard that this real princess has a peach blossom face, but her mind is extremely vicious, she kills people without seeing blood, she is ruthless, and she always plays tricks!" For this real princess, many people seem to have heard of her, and she is extremely skillful in describing her.

"Oh my God! If Miss Xu Shi offends her, will something happen! Someone began to worry about Miss Xu Shi, "Miss Xu Shi is a good person!" ”

Although I haven't read the book, and I haven't heard anything about Miss Xu Shi, I can think that I am a good person when I go against a wicked person like Princess Zhenzhen.

……

Listening to the discussions downstairs, Qiao Ran twisted her eyebrows, and the sweet and soft bean paste filling was in her mouth and forgot to swallow for a while, she tilted her head and said to Zhang Xie on the side: "Although I think that these ordinary people are not false at all when they say the true princess, but when will the behavior of the real princess be known to everyone?" ”

You must know that before Xu Hexiu didn't say anything, she hadn't heard anything about Princess Zhenzhen at all, and she hadn't even heard of Hongdou's "bag inquiry" and came back to complain to her!

It's only a few days now, and the news of the real princess has spread so widely?

"Somebody must be pushing behind it." In this regard, Zhang Xie was not surprised, he said, "Although this kind of thing is not good, there is a saying that 'if heaven wants to make it die, it must first make it crazy', this woman makes enemies everywhere, and there are not a few people who will promote rumors about this matter behind the scenes." ”

For Princess Zhenzhen, he really didn't even bother to mention the name, and directly replaced it with "this woman".

In this regard, Qiao Ran deeply agreed, and it was much easier to spread a piece of news in Chang'an City than to suppress a piece of news. Send a few people to the crowd of people who are waiting there and have nothing to do, and someone will go to help spread the word. Instead, she wants to suppress a piece of news, such as the matter of her aunt's family, which can be done, and I am afraid that the entire Chang'an City can count it on one hand.

"However, it's okay to have such a rumor, at least as long as Miss Xu Shi is careful, nothing should happen." Qiao Ran said, her eyes still wandering among the bustling crowd downstairs, "So many people have seen the conflict between Miss Xu Shi and Princess Zhenzhen, and it is not easy for Princess Zhenzhen to be afraid of her temperament." ”

In this regard, Zhang Xie responded lightly, and he said: "Although I am not familiar with Miss Xu Shi, because of the relationship between Xu and Xiu and Chengze, we can be regarded as knowing each other for many years. Miss Xu Shi is not the kind of person who will be hot-headed, since she dares to offend Princess Zhenzhen, she is not afraid of Princess Zhenzhen's revenge. Moreover, she is not the kind of young lady of the Xu family who is so naΓ―ve that she really thinks that she can save herself from being plotted with just one surname, which is different from the Miss Cui family who had an accident, you can rest assured. ”

Qiao Ran breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, although it was still unclear whether Miss Xu Shi was an enemy or a friend at the moment, but no matter what, she didn't want Miss Xu Shi to have an accident. While eating plum blossom cakes, she continued to look at the people downstairs, and when the crowd of chattering people gradually dispersed, Miss Xu Shi finally walked out of the teahouse with two maids, and then boarded the carriage at the door and left.

Today's lively viewing was quite enjoyable, Qiao Ran finished watching the whole process, retracted his gaze, and turned his head to look at Zhang Xie behind him.

The girl's gaze was very focused, so that Zhang Xie couldn't help coughing, and asked her with a smile: "What's wrong?" ”

He looked at her with a calm and calm gaze, and the girl opposite was a sweetheart who was happy with him, and he was embarrassed to see what he was embarrassed about.

The girl looked away, but she didn't forget to point to his ear and said, "It's red here." ”

It seems that Zhang Xie is not as calm as he appears on the surface! That's good, otherwise she will think that she is alone in her heart!

The room was quiet for a moment, and Qiao Ran, who felt that her cheeks were a little hot, finally spoke again to break the inexplicable and sudden silence: "By the way, there is something I want to ask you." ”

Zhang explained: "You say." But whatever she asked, as long as he could answer it, he naturally knew that everything was endless. For Ranran, he will gradually make it so that there are no secrets between the two.

"Okay." The girl snorted when she heard this, looked back, coughed, and said, "It's not surprising that your Yiranju is only a few days of renovation." But to design such a mechanism, and to be able to find the gap in the stone bricks that can match the stone bricks that I have seen from here without using any action in the teahouse opposite, it is not possible to do it in a few days! ”

Of course, finding out that the owner of the teahouse is Miss Xu Shi, she believes that it is not a difficult thing for Zhang Jie. But without alarming Miss Xu Shi, he used such complicated and troublesome means to get a glimpse of Miss Xu Shi's movements, what did he want? As far as she knows, Zhang Xie has no habit of peeping at the rights and wrongs of others.

In this regard, Zhang Xie just looked at the teahouse opposite and squinted slightly, and then pointed out as soon as he opened his mouth: "That teahouse is not Miss Xu Shi's alone. ”

Not Miss Xu Shi alone? Whose else could that be? Qiao Ran was stunned for a moment, and blurted out: "Even Xu Hexiu doesn't know who else can be about the teahouse...... I see, it's hard to ......."

The girl subconsciously turned her head as she spoke, and when she looked at Zhang Jielai's eyes, her amber pupils darkened, and she blurted out in shock: "It's Xie Chengze?" ”

Zhang Xie nodded, with a little comfort in her heart again, turned to the teahouse opposite, and said, "Yes, this teahouse belongs to Miss Xu Shi and Cheng Ze." ”

Growing up in a big family, there are always some things that are inconvenient to carry out under the noses of the family, and it is very important to have a teahouse that belongs only to you to pass on news or meet someone.

However, compared to Miss Xu Shi, who is a female streamer, and a relatively simple gate valve like the Xu family, the Xie family obviously needs such a teahouse more.

"That was before Miss Xu Shi left Beijing, and Cheng Ze revealed to me that the two of them had jointly built a teahouse, but where they chose not to disclose." Zhang Xie explained, "Not long after the teahouse was opened, Miss Xu Shi left Beijing, and the teahouse was temporarily used by Cheng Ze alone. It wasn't until you told me about Miss Xu Shi's teahouse that I thought it should be the teahouse that Miss Xu Shi and Cheng Ze jointly founded. ”

When Qiao Ran heard this, she was silent: "So, you bought this place in just half a month, opened a snack fast, and renovated it?" ”

That's too fast! Qiao Ran said in her heart.

Zhang Xie didn't care, and said lightly: "Money can make ghosts grind, this is originally a restaurant, and it is not difficult to change your appearance." ”

Qiao Ran: "......" almost forgot, even if he didn't wear gold and silver and write "I am the richest man in Jinling" on his face like Master Qiao, Su Rili acted very low-key, but in the end, with the Zhang family's hundreds of years of accumulated family wealth in hand, he naturally had enough confidence to say the sentence "Money can make ghosts grind".

After being quiet for a while, Qiao Ran spoke again: "But Miss Xu Shi's net worth is not low, there may not be only one teahouse, and this teahouse may not be jointly purchased by Miss Xu Shi and Cheng Ze." ”

In this regard, Zhang Xie only shook his head and said lightly: "I have a spy who is proficient in arithmetic under my command, and without alarming the clan, he used the money given by the clan to deduct the expenses of the two of them, and the teahouse has been open for several years, and if these conditions are met, these two people can only buy the next teahouse, and they can't buy the second one." ”

Qiao Ran: "...... That's right, too. ”

It is not easy to live in Chang'an. If you want to open an ordinary teahouse, you can only rent the lot. But if it is used to listen to the news, then it must be necessary to make major changes to the entire teahouse, and everything is needed to build a secret room and set up organs. According to Miss Xu Shi and Xie Chengze's vigilant temperament, there must be no shortage of these things in that teahouse. It is obviously not appropriate to do these things with a leased lot.

To buy the lot of a teahouse, it is indeed a huge amount of money, except for Master Qiao and the others in front of him, it is almost difficult for ordinary famous children to do these things without hiding from their families.

Although she doesn't care too much about whether she has money in her life, she can eat at the royal banquet in the palace, and the street stalls can also eat it. After coming here, after becoming a destitute Qiao Ran with empty sleeves, she didn't care too much about this. It was only at this time, looking at Zhang Jie, Miss Xu Shi, and Xie Chengze's purchase of teahouses and snacks, that they suddenly felt that their money was a little tight. You must know that in the past, as a product of a business marriage, although she faced calculations and backstabbing from blood and family at every moment, it was the first time that she had such a nervous feeling at hand.

Zhang Jie's indifferent attitude seemed to let her see her former self.

Qiao Ran covered her face and turned her head: It's not the same anymore! Although her attitude towards money is not as stubborn as ordinary people, after all, there has been. But thinking of the small mansion he was still renting at this time, Qiao Ran couldn't help but think about whether to do some business with other officials and make some other money or something.

Of course, she knew that Zhang Xie wouldn't care if she had a lot of money or nothing, but ...... Let's do something! I have been a businessman for so many years, wouldn't it be a pity not to give it a try to complete the dream of "it's not easy to live in peace" that Bai Juyi once sighed?

Of course, the most important thing is to be idle at this time, and you can do something else when you don't have a case at hand. Qiao Ran thought about it.

It was a calculation from the bottom of my heart, and I was not ready to start doing it immediately, but unexpectedly, on the morning of the third day of the next day, someone came to the door with two large bags of things.

"Come on, come on, string relatives for the New Year, old man, I don't have other relatives to visit in Chang'an City, so I came to your house to string strings." The two almost identical old doctors Feng carried large bags of things and entered the door by themselves.

Looking at the big bags of things in the hands of the two old doctors Feng, Hongdou suddenly smiled, and happily said to Qiao Ran, who was holding Xiao Bai Shunmao: "Miss, what do you say Old Doctor Feng will bring to the door?" Will you bring some meat dishes or melon seeds for snacks? ”

There are so many things in the New Year, and you can guess what they are with your big toe.

Qiao Ran closed her eyes and sniffed, and said, "I didn't smell any meat, vegetables, and melon seeds and snacks, they all smelled of medicine." ”

As soon as he heard that it was all medicine, the red beans that were originally elated suddenly wilted, and he couldn't help muttering: "How can there be a big New Year's gift of medicine, it's unlucky!" ”。

This muttering is not loud, and the elderly Doctor Feng sometimes can't hear them clearly when they speak loudly, let alone this low-pitched muttering.

Unexpectedly, it is probably really a relationship of "good words don't go into the ears, bad words drill in", such a subtle muttering sound really made Dr. Feng, who usually has to put a few backs on his ears from time to time, hear it. He snorted heavily when he heard this, slanted his eyebrows and glared at the red bean, pointed at her nose and said angrily: "What does the little girl know, the old man, these are not any medicines, they are all tonics!" ”

If you send tonic medicine for the New Year, there will be nothing bad about it.

Hongdou flattened his mouth, and admitted his mistake under Qiao Ran's signal, this attitude of admitting his mistake was so fast, it made Dr. Feng unpleasant, and it happened that at this time, he saw Tang Zhongyuan with a broom walking out of the backyard, and the old doctor Feng who "specializes in andrology" on the side hurriedly picked out two packs of medicine, and walked over with a smile, without saying a word, he pinched Tang Zhongyuan's arm, and this pinch was even more satisfied, and called out, "The young man is in good health!" ”

Tang Zhongyuan was excited by Doctor Feng's eyes, and instinctively took a step back. Just when everyone was confused, Dr. Feng, who specializes in andrology, shouted "Try it!" "Try it!" "A hundred tried!" As he spoke, he stuffed the medicine into Tang Zhongyuan's arms.

In this situation, how do you really look at it, how do you think that what Doctor Feng has in his hand is not a serious medicine.

Qiao Ran was silent, and was about to open her mouth to stop, but the old doctor Feng from Jinling on the side squeezed his eyes at her at this time, and spoke up: "Miss Qiao, do you want to do business together!" ”
