Chapter 372: Drinking

When Xu Fang finished speaking, the whole person trembled, and his face was whiter than the snow on the eaves.

Luo Sheng also finished listening.

Her face looked calm, but her heart seemed to be immersed in a boiling oil pot, and pain was rolling.

As early as when she first heard the news of her two sisters, she suspected that the eldest sister was not so simple as dying of illness.

But even if she did not hesitate to speculate on people with the greatest malice, she never imagined that the truth was like this.

The eldest sister was actually covered to death in front of her daughter!

She could hardly think about how her eldest sister felt before she died.

At that moment, how worried should the eldest sister be about her daughter hiding in the cupboard......

"Miss Luo, I know that this kind of thing should not trouble others, but I really don't know how to get justice for my mother. I had hoped that if I got married, I might be able to have some freedom and strength, but getting married was a matter of luck after all......"

It's like a mother, who married the Hou Mansion under the dignity of the county lord, but married a man with a beastly heart like his father.

She envied her second aunt countless times, not for herself, but for her mother.

Even if she didn't have a good death, the second aunt was much happier than her mother.

"Did your father and stepmother plan to marry you?" Luo Sheng collected his emotions and asked calmly.

Xu Fang shook his head slowly: "Over the years, I can feel that my father has always been suspicious of me, and he is probably willing to put me in front of him." ”

Once a woman marries, her family's control over her is greatly reduced.

Luo Sheng sneered: "Does he still want to keep you as an old girl for the rest of his life?" ”

Xu Fang smiled bitterly: "My father and stepmother are both good-looking, and I won't be an old girl for a lifetime, maybe it can be delayed for a year, and when I am too old, I will naturally not be able to find any good people." ”

She didn't even mention these words to her cousin.

It is thankless to speculate on his father like this in front of people who don't know the truth.

"What about Duchess Ningguo, have you ever asked about your relatives?"

Xu Fang's face was slightly red: "My cousin said to pay attention to it for me." ”

"Miss Xu is a smart person, after this year, try to let Duchess Ning Guo choose a good family for you."

"But marriage matters pay attention to the orders of parents, and my father may not agree to the words of the matchmakerβ€”β€”"

The corners of Luo Sheng's lips hooked into a mocking arc: "Duchess Ningguo's face is still enough, and when your father is anxious, I don't want to offend people." ”

Burnt out?

Xu Fang's heart moved, and she was a little anxious: "Miss Luo, do you have a way to deal with my father?" ”

"One step at a time."

"My family affairs are not in a hurry...... lest his own affairs affect his revenge, Xu Fang said busily.

Luo Sheng smiled: "There are eggs under the nest, and if you want to take revenge, you can't put yourself in it." ”

Xu Fang bit her lip: "If I can avenge my mother, I don't care!" ”

Luo Sheng looked at her deeply and said, "Your mother cares." ”

Xu Fang was speechless all of a sudden, looked at Luo Sheng in a daze, and burst into tears.

Luo Sheng stretched out his hand to hold the cold hand, and said softly: "Don't cry, there is revenge." ”

Xu Fang muttered, "Miss Luo helps me like thisβ€”"

Luo Sheng hooked his lips: "Anyway, being idle is idle, who made me look at your father and stepmother unpleasantly." ”

Xu Fang went back, but Luo Sheng's mood couldn't calm down for a long time.

The persimmon trees in the courtyard are covered in thick silver, and the stone benches not far away are also covered with a thick layer of snow, which shimmers in the sun.

Luo Sheng walked over and stretched out his hand to brush the snow off the stone bench.

"Girl, are you going to sit here? Then you wait a minute. ”

Chloe walked into the house quickly, and soon came out with a feather duster and a thick cushion, and then cleared the snow and laid the mat, and in an instant even the hot tea was ready.

"It's cold here, you can't sit for a long time. But if you want to breathe, it's not bad to sit and look at the persimmon tree for a while......" Cole muttered, and quickly brought the brazier and placed it beside Luo Sheng.

"Call the shopkeeper."

After a while, the female shopkeeper came: "What does the owner command?" ”

"I remember that there was a horse Yushi who occasionally came to the wine shop to eat?" Luo Sheng asked while holding hot tea.

She opened this wine shop in order to form a network to live in the capital's powerful people, which can come in handy when she needs it, so everyone who has been to the wine shop will pay attention.

The female shopkeeper was a clever person, and when she heard Luo Sheng ask this, she was a little surprised, and immediately said, "Boss, wait a minute." ”

Luo Sheng drank a few sips of tea, and waited until the female shopkeeper came over with a thick account book.

The female shopkeeper stood beside Luo Sheng, Ma Li opened the account book and looked at it, and reported in a low voice: "Ma Yushi will come on the second day of the first month of every monthβ€”β€”"

Her expression became a little strange.

"How?"

The female shopkeeper said: "Every time I come, I will order a bowl of Yangchun noodles and a glass of soju." ”

It turned out that the account book copied and written by the female shopkeeper every day was not a simple bookkeeping, but a careful record of the identities of the guests who came to eat and drink every day, as well as the wine and food they ordered.

The idea of the female shopkeeper is very simple: the people who come to eat and drink are dignitaries, how can they do it if they don't grasp the tastes of the nobles, can they be a qualified shopkeeper?

"This Ma Yushi is poor enough." Red beans pout.

Luo Sheng's depressed mood seemed to shine into a beam of light, and said lightly: "That's good." ”

The officials of the Great Zhou Dynasty paid a monthly salary on the first day of each month, and Ma Yushi came to eat and drink on the second day of the lunar month, which shows that he had just issued a monthly salary and had some surplus money in his hand.

Combined with the food and drinks he ordered, it can be seen that this is a very delicious food, but he is suffering from lack of money.

"Write a notice, just say that the wine shop is going to close down near the end of the year, and in order to thank the drinkers, a one-fold dish will be launched every day, and today is the braised beef."

"One fold?" The female shopkeeper quickly calculated, "Twenty taels of braised beef, isn't it enough for only two taels of silver?" ”

Luo Sheng's head.

The female shopkeeper looked distressed and whispered: "Five folds are actually very heartfelt." ”

One fold, isn't this a free gift?

Hongdou smiled and said: "The shopkeeper just listens to our girl's arrangement, and the girl is not poor for money." ”

The female shopkeeper was heartbroken.

was careless, always according to what she thought when she opened a fat powder shop before, forgetting that she is now mixed under Miss Luo.

The female shopkeeper was busy doing things according to Luo Sheng's arrangement.

Luo Sheng instructed the red beans: "Fetch a pot of soju." ”

After a while, a jade-colored wine jug was placed on the stone table.

Luo Sheng picked up the wine jug and poured a glass of warm wine, and drank slowly to watch the young man in the corner chopping wood.

The dull sound of chopping wood entered her ears, giving her heart a little peace of mind that had been suppressed too much.

Wei Han stepped into the wine shop and asked Shi Yan, "Where is Miss Luo?" ”

"Miss Luo is looking at the persimmon tree in the backyard."

"Alone?" Wei Han asked quietly.

"Ah, yes."

Wei Han strode over and opened the thick cotton curtain.

The girl in the blue cloak sat on a stone bench, holding a wine glass, and was watching the young man chopping wood.

She remained motionless, and together with the persimmon tree that accompanied her, solidified into a quiet picture.

Because of this, the sound of chopping wood became annoying when it came to the ears.
