Chapter 036: Tailgating

Zhang Lan and Zhang Chi rode horses, Zhang Xi rode in a car, and the three brothers and sisters went all the way to Jiqingfang.

Originally, Liu Ji wanted Liu Xiu to pick up people by car, but Zhang Xi cut off his beard halfway in order to help Zhang Lan show his face.

Liu Ji naturally would not compete with Zhang Xi on such a trivial matter.

Besides, Zhang Xi values Huang Yi'an, and it is beneficial and harmless to him. After all, Huang Yi'an signed a five-year contract with Wuzhangfeng. Zhang Xi values Huang Yi'an so much, which is equivalent to being more firmly tied to Wuzhangfeng in addition to his shares.

With Zhang Chi and Zhang Xi's care, even if the British government does not come forward, others have to give Wuzhangfeng some face.

In the east cross courtyard, Ming Yan got the report, his face was gloomy, and he smashed the abacus in his hand to the ground.

Lan Fang was so frightened that she hurriedly lowered her head, and did not dare to persuade her.

Miss Cousin has always been easy-going and gentle, but if she starts a temper, it is also very terrifying, and no one dares to risk death to persuade her at this juncture.

Although she didn't think that the third young master was out of the house to play, there was nothing to be angry about if she didn't bring Miss Biao, who happened to have accounts to sort out. But maybe Miss Biao feels that she is not a serious British princess, so she wants to complain more......

It took a long time for Ming Xuan to suppress his anger, and coldly instructed Lan Fang: "You go to Zheng's Mansion and tell Miss Zheng that I will accept the appointment the day before yesterday today." ”

Lan Fang was confused by this clueless sentence, pointed to the account books on the table, and cautiously persuaded: "But these account books, Steward Song said that he would ask Miss Table to read the ...... shown today."

After the death of Mrs. Ming, the British government came forward to ask for all the dowries from the Ming family, and all of them were transferred to the name of Ming. In the early days, the British duchess had been helping to take care of it, and when Ming Yan was ten years old, the British duchess slowly taught her to manage the accounts and take care of it.

Now that the stewards are in charge, the British duchess just asks, and all the affairs are handled by Mingyi herself, and she rarely interferes.

Hearing this, the anger that had been suppressed so hard surged up again.

Steward Song didn't send the account book early or late, but he came to deliver the account yesterday, and he had to be in such a hurry, if it wasn't for the aunt's good arrangement in advance, who would believe it?

To put it bluntly, she is just an outsider in the British Mansion, even if her aunt treats her well, how can she go beyond her own son?

So if you want to last a long time, you have to rely on herself!

"If you want to go, you will go, and ask so much what are you doing?" Mingyi's tone was not good, "Could it be that I am the master of the family, but I have to be restrained by him as a steward?" ”

Seeing this, Lan Fang didn't dare to ask any more, so she had to bow down and retreat.

Zheng Mansion, Zheng Yuyan received Lan Fang's brainless words, and instantly understood Ming Yan's intentions, immediately got up to freshen up, and instructed Lan Fang: "You wait a while, I will go back to the house with you in a while." ”

Lan Fang was inexplicable, but she still bent her knees and retreated to the outside room to wait.

After a while, Zheng Yuyan changed into a skirt and hairpin when she went out, and instructed Lan Fang: "Let's go, don't let Miss Ming wait in a hurry." ”

Lan Fang was confused and hurriedly followed.

Zheng Yuyan arrived at the British Mansion and went straight to the East Cross Courtyard.

Ming Yan had already packed up, wearing a begonia red skirt, a hairpin with inlaid jewels on the double snail bun, a suitable shade of rouge on the face, and lip grease, and the whole person was dressed up beautifully and luxuriously.

Zheng Yuyan looked at his makeup and let out a long breath.

The moon-white skirt and the double bun have only a few orchids, which are as pure as an unknown small flower on the side of the road, and they are more and more dazzling and bright like begonias.

"The last time you said you invited me to see the newly opened rouge shop, I didn't have to be idle, so I pushed it off. I happen to be free today, so let's go and have a look. It just so happens that I'm going to add some fat powder balm. Ming Xuan went straight to the point and talked to Zheng Yuyan.

Zheng Yuyan understood, and said happily: "It can be regarded as making me look forward to it." ”

Seeing this, Lan Fang quietly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that it was indeed made in advance.

However, glancing at the account books on the table, Lan Fang couldn't help but feel apprehensive in her heart - even if she was invited in advance, Miss Biao's account books obviously hadn't been read yet......

Lan Fang, who was nervous, quietly told Chu's mother what happened when Ming Yan and Zheng Yuyan went to the main room to talk to the British duchess.

Mother Chu had a bad instinct when she heard it, and just as she was about to go in to report to the British Duchess, she heard the British Duchess laugh and said, "Since it has been agreed a long time ago, then let's go." ”

Chu's mother "groaned" in her heart, so she had to press it down for the time being.

After Ming Yan and Zheng Yuyan retreated, Chu's mother hurriedly entered the room and reported Lan Fang's words to the British Duchess.

When the British duchess heard this, her brows furrowed, and she asked, "What about Lan Fang?" Let her in and talk back. ”

Mother Chu hurriedly whispered: "Every time Miss Biao goes out, she is accompanied by Lan Fang. ”

The implication is that Lan Fang has already gone out with Mingyi.

The British duchess was furious when she heard this: "For such an important matter, why didn't the girl come to the ceremony earlier?" ”

If she had known this, she would not have cared about outsiders just now, and agreed to Ming's plea.

Chu's mother gritted her teeth, knelt on the ground with a "plop", and wailed and pleaded: "It's all to blame on the slave maid!" It was the slave maid who was worried that Miss Biao would not be comfortable in the house, so she told Lan Fang and the others to serve her closely, and be sure to respect Miss Biao and follow her more in everything......"

The British duchess saw that the nursing sister who accompanied her and took care of her cried profusely, and she couldn't bear it in her heart, and sighed for a long time, and said, "Get up." ”

After a pause, I didn't know whether to comfort myself or my mother, and said: "The rouge shop that Sister Yan'er said is in the north of the city and the south of the city, separated by the entire capital. Perhaps, we are overthinking? ”

Rao is like this, the British duchess still instructed Mother Chu: "Just in case, you will personally lead someone to catch up now, so as not to make a mistake in Sister Yan'er." ”

Ming Yi has always hated Huang Yi'an, if she really went to Huang Yi'an on this trip, I am afraid that it will be difficult to be good.

As for whether Ming Yan knows about Zhang Lan and Huang Yi'an's upcoming marriage, and who leaked the news, it is not too late to check later.

Mother Chu knew that the matter was very important, and she regretted her dereliction of duty, so she hurriedly agreed and retreated.

……

When Ming Yi was making this fuss, Zhang Xi and his party had already gone to Jiqingfang to pick up Huang Yi'an, and went all the way to the south of the city.

Zhang Xi sent Ah Mei and Lan Xin to sit outside the carriage, leaned over to Huang Yi'an's side, gently touched Huang Yi'an with his elbow, raised his eyebrows and smiled: "How is it?" Is Brother Lan handsome today better than that day? ”

In her heart, since Huang Yi'an agreed to Zhang Lan to go to Wuzhangfeng together, he was seriously considering the meaning of this family business. That being the case, it doesn't hurt to make some jokes between friends.

What's more, she sincerely and wholeheartedly hopes that Huang Yi'an can be her brother-in-law.

Huang Yi'an looked out of the car window when he heard this, and only vaguely saw a figure through the thin bamboo curtain, the young man's posture was straight, which complemented the divine horse under his crotch, and in a trance, it seemed to coincide with General Mingwei who he saw through the screen in his previous life.

But even though they were separated again.

The young man in front of him did not have the heavy and powerful power of General Mingwei in his previous life, but he had a vigorous vitality, like a round of warm and bright sun, and just like the green bamboo, which made people's hearts can't help but soften.

What a lovely young man, growing up in the wind!

Huang Yi'an couldn't help but be pleased.

Zhang Xi misunderstood, thinking that Huang Yi'an was full of joy, and did not bother her to turn into a "Wangfu Stone", but only pursed her lips and stole fun.

Finally, it was not in vain that Brother Lan's painstaking dressing up!
