Chapter 269: Trouble
Bai Jiujiu treated each other well, but he never thought that the other party didn't appreciate it at all, "What kind of thing are you?" Isn't it just that the embroidery work is better, what kind of shelf to put on? I have repeatedly sent people to the door to ask for embroidery, but you have been shirking, is it really impossible for me to bully? ”
Mrs. Kuo's fingers quickly touched Bai Jiujiu's nose, making Bai Jiujiu's face gloomy all of a sudden. Her embroidery has always been limited to the powerful, and most of those people are polite, not only come in person, but also prepare gifts. But there are also many people who directly sent people to ask for it, and obviously, the Mrs. Kuo in front of her is one of them.
Hearing Mrs. Kuo's words, Bai Jiujiu wanted to be angry, but thinking that this was a teahouse, as Xu Huaiqing's wife, if she had a conflict with someone in a public place like a teahouse, it would inevitably spread some gossip and affect Xu Huaiqing.
Taking a deep breath, after Bai Jiujiu calmed himself down, he said in a deep voice, "Although I don't know which lady you are, I hope you can understand." There are countless people who come to my house every day to ask for embroidery, and I can't satisfy them all. If Madame really likes it, it is better to wait a little longer, and she will definitely be able to get it. ”
Bai Jiujiu's words were neither humble nor arrogant, and it can be said that they gave the other party a big step. But Mrs. Nakuo didn't appreciate it at all, "I can send someone to your house to ask for it, which is already enough for you." How dare you make me wait a few more days? ”
At this moment, the smile on Bai Jiujiu's face had gradually disappeared. Although she didn't want to cause trouble outside, the other party was so aggressive that even the clay people were aroused.
"If you really like my embroidery, and you should have prepared a generous gift to come to the door in person, maybe I will be soft-hearted for a while, and I will make one for you." Seeing that the other party had already ridden on her head, Bai Jiujiu naturally wouldn't give her a good face anymore, and said in a deep voice, "And you just sent someone to ask for it, is it true that the whole world revolves around you?" With your attitude, let alone embroidery, even if it is a stitch and thread, I will not give it to you. ”
The Mrs. Kuo who came to find trouble is also a figure with a head and a face in the capital. She repeatedly begged for embroidery but did not get her wish, and after being provoked by Zhao Feihuai intentionally or unintentionally, she became angry and wanted to ask Bai Jiujiu for an explanation. Unexpectedly, Bai Jiujiu didn't buy it, but taught her a hard lesson.
"That Xu Huaiqing is just a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, you dare to be so arrogant." Mrs. Kuo's face changed greatly, and she didn't look like a noble daughter of a big family at all, but like a shrew from a street alley, "Do you believe that as long as I say something, the emperor will remove him from his position tomorrow?" ”
For her words, Bai Jiujiu really didn't believe it. The emperor admires Xu Huaiqing very much, although his official position is not high now, but with the emperor's support, even the prime minister has nothing to do with him, let alone others?
"In that case, you can go ahead and say it. I want to see what you have to make the emperor obey your words. In the face of the other party's threat, Bai Jiujiu was not afraid at all.
Before Mrs. Kuo could speak again, Wang Ruyao on the side couldn't listen anymore. She is the daughter of the prime minister, who in this capital sees her and is not polite to three points? The person in front of him was good, he didn't notice her, and he dared to threaten Bai Jiujiu in front of her.
After marrying Han Zhaoyin, Wang Ruyao's temperament has converged a lot. But seeing someone dare to be arrogant in front of herself, it suddenly stimulated the brutality in her bones.
"Where did you come from to dare to make trouble here?" Wang Ruyao stood up and waited viciously for Mrs. Kuo in front of her, "Now that Lord Xu is deeply appreciated by the emperor, it is too whimsical to want to depose him based on your words." ”
Hearing Wang Ruyao's words, Mrs. Kuo wanted to fight back, but after seeing the other party's domineering attitude, she swallowed back the words that came to her mouth.
Although Wang Ruyao's reputation in the capital is great, Mrs. Kuo has always been in the back house, but she has never seen her true face, so she didn't dare to be careless for a while, and hurriedly asked, "I don't know who you are, I talked to Bai Jiujiu, why did you come forward?" ”
Wang Ruyao glanced at her, "I'm just Han Zhaoyin's wife." The embroidery workshop run by Bai Jiujiu is in partnership with my husband, and it can be regarded as a business partner. You came to trouble her for embroidery, so naturally I can't stand idly by. ”
Although the Han family is not small, in the eyes of the powerful people in the capital, it is not a matter of concern. However, the name of Han Zhaoyin's wife is completely different. The celebrities in the capital all know that the prime minister's only daughter is married to Han Zhaoyin, and they provoke the Han family, but they can't provoke the prime minister.
Knowing Wang Ruyao's identity, Mrs. Kuo, who was originally arrogant and domineering, suddenly weakened.
"It turned out to be Mrs. Han, I was offended a lot just now, I hope you don't be surprised." Mrs. Kuo glanced at Bai Jiujiu unwillingly. She knew very well in her heart that with Wang Ruyao protecting Bai Jiujiu, if she found fault again, it would be boring to ask for herself.
"I heard that you have something to do with Jiujiu, so let's talk about it here." Wang Ruyao snorted coldly and said, "Now that my husband is not here, I am in charge of the affairs of the embroidery workshop, so if you have any grievances, come to me." ”
If Han Zhaoyin was present, Mrs. Kuo might not be afraid of her. But Wang Ruyao has the support of the prime minister, so she naturally doesn't dare to say much.
"Mrs. Han, where is this, the quality of the embroidery produced by your embroidery workshop is exquisite, and even the emperor is full of praise, how dare I have an opinion. It's all a misunderstanding, so I won't bother. ”
After saying that, Mrs. Kuo's face turned red, and she got out of the teahouse and left on her own.
Wang Ruyao snorted at Mrs. Kuo's back, "These guys just rely on the power of the family, and they bully the weak and fear the weekdays." If I had used my previous nature, I would have taught her a lesson. ”
Hearing this, the corners of Bai Jiujiu's mouth couldn't help but raise a smile. Although Wang Ruyao was indeed a little rude before, just the fact that she was jealous and hateful could make her have the idea of getting acquainted with her.
"Mrs. Han, thank you really this time. If it weren't for you, I don't know how long I'd be entangled with her. Bai Jiujiu hurriedly opened his mouth and expressed his gratitude to Wang Ruyao.
Facing Bai Jiujiu's thanks, Wang Ruyao just chuckled and shook her head, "You still have to thank me for such a trivial matter." You are Zhao Yin's friend, and I should help you. What's more, now that Zhaoyin is not in the capital, I will take care of the embroidery workshop, so I naturally will not sit idly by. ”
Bai Jiujiu is not a person who is obsessed with etiquette, and when he saw Wang Ruyao say this, he didn't say anything more.
