Chapter 146: Impatience
Maybe he had heard some noise, or maybe the woman's voice was really penetrating, and before Fluttershy could tell Xiao Zheng to open his eyes in a daze, his hazy eyes only swept over the veiled woman, and the answer was already clear. He does this, looking around warily before giving Fluttershy a look and telling him to step back.
"The shopkeeper is really idle." The woman glanced at Xiao Zheng and sat down on a chair beside her.
Xiao Zheng got up from his chair, he looked outside and said, "That's how Madame entered my door?" ”
"The shopkeeper is relieved, the guard dog on the other side has already slept unknowingly. What's more, even if they saw me, who would recognize who I was? Even your daughter barely recognized me. The woman seemed to be very self-cooked, and she poured herself a cup of herbal tea, drank it regardless of it, and finally said, "This tea tastes good, but unfortunately, this teapot is still a little cold." ”
"Why are you so reckless? Didn't you send a message to the pawnshop before? Xiao Zheng lowered his voice and said.
"Pawnshop? Is the shopkeeper talking about the pawnshop? The woman's tone seemed to have a hint of sarcasm.
"What? Madame thinks there is a problem? Xiao Zheng asked.
"You know best if there is a problem with the shopkeeper, anyway, the pawnshop is not mine. However, I don't really like to deal with those individuals, and I think it's more reassuring to have a direct conversation with the shopkeeper. ”
"Aren't you worried about your master?" Xiao Zheng shook his head helplessly.
"Thank you so much for the kindness of the shopkeeper. I have crossed the river with mud bodhisattvas, so I am in a mood to worry about us. It seems that my master really didn't choose the wrong person, and the shopkeeper is indeed kind-hearted. It's a pity that good intentions in this world may not be rewarded. The woman was a little arrogant, and this attitude made Xiao Zheng a little dissatisfied.
"You...... What does that mean? Xiao Zheng glanced at it.
"What? Is the shopkeeper sure that I am here? The woman shrugged her shoulders and said.
"That'...... Madam, please come with me,......" Xiao Zheng thought for a moment, and then walked to the back hall with his wife.
The woman's eyes glanced at Ah San and Ah Wu in the shop, but these two fellows seemed to be deaf and blind, not only did they not have any snooping heart, but also did not have any eavesdropping, they only cared about their own work. The woman's heart inevitably felt a little more reverence for Xiao Zheng.
The backyard is a different hole, although the woman is used to seeing the world, but such an ingenious design is also more or less pleasing to her eyes, she looks here, looks over there, and unconsciously has walked to the west courtyard, here, is Xiao Zheng's study. Originally, after seeing the novelty and strangeness outside, the woman still had some expectations for the unique cave in this study, but she didn't expect that as soon as the door opened, the woman's expression couldn't help but be disappointed.
"Are you really ruined by the gold and jade?" The woman took off her hat and revealed the true face of Lushan, sure enough, this is Mama Qin who had a deal with a few days ago!
Mama Qin placed her hat on the desk casually, and her eyes were no longer disappointed, but full of disdain.
"I wonder what Mama has to teach this time?" Xiao Zheng didn't pay attention to it, and he couldn't understand it silently, even Feng Yao, they didn't understand why he Xiao Zheng just wanted to leave such a simple place as a study in such a gorgeous mansion, and it was also a place where he often moved. Only Xiao Zheng knows that although he is no longer worried about gold and silver, he can never forget his mission to come to the capital.
"On the orders of my mother, I repay the help of Shopkeeper Xiao." Mama Qin pursed her lips, and when she said this, she seemed to be chatting with Xiao Zheng about some family life. But they are just people who have had a two-sided relationship, and this is only the third time they have met! But Xiao Zheng has such a personality charm, so that everyone close to him has an inexplicable sense of trust, even Mama Qin from the palace is no exception.
"Mama is serious, I can't afford it!" Xiao Zheng immediately became cautious, even if he didn't like Mama Qin, he knew his identity, and he knew the person behind Mama Qin.
Saying this proves that you are still self-aware. But who told you to have a good life, and met my mother. Mama Qin glanced at Xiao Zheng, and she could no longer see the sad look she had a few days ago. Indeed, let alone Mama Qin, even the current Zhaoyi Niangniang should have something to comfort her.
It's not that Zhaoyi Niangniang used any rouge to regain favor, but that her younger brother is the younger brother who was worried about the silver a few days ago. If there is really any ability to compete enough, and make some achievements in office, then Zhaoyi's regain of favor is just around the corner. Even if you can't do anything without virtue and incompetence, if you can guarantee that you won't make any mistakes, then the peaceful life can still be saved.
In this way, Zhaoyi's crisis has passed, at least in the capital, it can be regarded as a certain response.
Anyway, Xiao Zheng did his best, and Zhaoyi Niangniang did her best. The coefficients of the things that Xiao Zheng sent into the palace were all distributed, not to mention, he also bowed to demonstrate, and also used the high-quality products presented by Xiao Zheng, the change in the complexion on his face was visible to the world, and Zhaoyi Niangniang herself was overjoyed.
Now it can be said that the money is clear, and Mama Qin came here to say this, Xiao Zheng really doesn't know what medicine is sold in her gourd.
"The old man is willing to listen to the silent teachings of the mother!" Xiao Zheng was always respectful and respectful, which inevitably made Mama Qin even more arrogant.
"I'll tell you the truth, your opponent already knows that there is something in the palace that you can't turn back." Mama Qin wrote lightly, Xiao Zheng seemed to have been prepared in his heart, he just raised his eyes slightly and said without a trace of panic, "This...... Sooner or later you'll know. ”
"It seems that the shopkeeper has already planned it?"
"I haven't thought about it yet."
"Do you know what your opponents have done?" Seeing that Xiao Zheng had no idea, Mama Qin became even more happy.
"I'd like to hear about it." Xiao Zheng clasped his hands into fists.
Seeing that Xiao Zheng was still a little humble, Mama Qin was a little more restrained.
"In the palace, I distributed the rouge on the shop to a group of palace maids, maids, old mothers, etc., according to the agreement with the shopkeeper in advance, I have to say, even our mothers are impressed by the shopkeeper's things, and those palace maids who have not seen any insomnia needless to say. At first, the reputation was very good, and our mother was very pleased. But recently, there has always been a rumor to slander the things in the palm of the story, and the palace daughter we once gave away quietly sent back the things we sent. It's only been a few days, and it's so weird in terms of word of mouth and action, I don't think I'll need to say that the shopkeeper should know what's going on. Mama Qin spoke eloquently, but Xiao Zheng was calm and calm.
He had long understood Zhong Shiwei's despicable deeds, and now these seemed to be only his initial stages.
"It seems that he was so impatient to make a move?" Xiao Zheng sighed, he knew that Zhong Shiwei would definitely not sit idly by, but he didn't expect that his reaction speed was so sensitive and his movements were so fast. Although his strength is no longer underestimated, this kind of stress speed still makes Xiao Zheng can't help but be careful.
"It's a matter of interests, don't blame others, our mother is just kind, she doesn't want such a good person as the shopkeeper to be framed by this nameless, so she specially asked me to come out and inform the shopkeeper." Mama Qin smiled faintly.
"Thank you to the grass people, the great kindness of the mother and the grass people can't be repaid!" Xiao Zheng suddenly knelt on his knees, and Mama Qin felt a little surprised.
"The shopkeeper doesn't have to be like this! As far as I know, your opponents are now buying people in the palace, and they will naturally not say good things for you anymore after taking the silver. In addition, Niangniang asked me to tell the shopkeeper that there is a Wang beauty in the palace, her character is not very good, she is a master who only recognizes silver and does not recognize people, if the shopkeeper is willing to spend some silver, this Wang beauty can still be used, although it is not anything to rely on, but at least she can borrow her mouth to block the momentum in front of her. ”
"It's just this Wang beauty...... The grass people's ability is limited, and the things in the palace are really ......" Xiao Zheng was a little annoyed.
"If the shopkeeper doesn't dislike me, I can help...... Just ......"
"How much money is used, as long as Mama opens her mouth, she will definitely do it in the future!" Xiao Zheng immediately understood Mama Qin's intentions.
"The shopkeeper is a righteous person, and our mother can't watch this righteous person always be bullied, right?"
"Mama's words are reasonable. This is two thousand taels of silver, and I hope Mama can do it for you! Xiao Zheng turned to the back of the desk, opened a drawer, took out a silver ticket from it and handed it to Mama Qin's hand, Mama Qin didn't even push it, picked up the silver ticket and put it in her arms.
"I've said everything I have to say, and I won't bother the shopkeeper." Mama Qin got up, and Xiao Zheng immediately sent her off.
"We have a backdoor ...... here"
"The shopkeeper is still provincial, you should know without me saying it, don't say it's your back door here, even if you have to send someone to guard the tunnel entrance here. It's not good for me to hide, so I might as well go out generously like this, and maybe I can avoid the suspicion of others. Mama Qin smiled faintly and put the hat back on, Xiao Zheng looked at this woman, he didn't expect that he was also a brave and knowledgeable person.
It's just that when he passes by the shop counter, Xiao Zheng asks Fluttershy to prepare a bag for buying rouge, and a few boxes of rouge are also in it and put it in Mama Qin's hand. Mama Qin didn't refuse, and walked out of the door of Mo Hui with her things.
At this moment, it is past the hottest time of noon, and there are already some visitors in the shop, and Mama Qin is indeed not very conspicuous in the middle.
In order not to attract attention, Xiao Zheng did not send him out of the door, but he carefully recalled Mama Qin's words and felt that it was indeed time for him to make some moves.
"Wang Beauty!" Xiao Zheng muttered in his heart, it seems that maybe it may really be as Mama Qin said, this is also a breakthrough. In this world, there are people who are afraid of pure hearts and few desires, but if she asks for something, it will be easy to do!
