Xing Qing was overjoyed to see Cheng Yan because he could be freed, and his expression was complicated. The two ladies in front of him obviously knew that he could make many compromises for Cheng Yan, and he was sure that he would do his best to facilitate this, but he didn't know what the price was. What worries him is whether Ming Yi has told Xia Huanfeng the secret of his life experience, if so, he will be very passive.

Ming Yi took in the expressions of the two, and said unhurriedly: "Shijingfang and Rongyifang live next to each other in the East Market, and I will also open another branch in the West Market." From sharing guests to the union of dishes and cosmetics, our two families have worked closely together as one. Therefore, Xia Niangzi and I have an idea that will be of great benefit to all four of us. ”

As soon as these words came out, all the eyes in the private room were silent. Ming Yi continued: "My Xishi Shijing Workshop needs a trustworthy second shopkeeper. Similarly, Xia Niangzi's West City Rongyi Fang also needs a new owner, and after discussing with the two of us, we decided to invite Cheng Yan and Xing Qing to serve separately, of course, we still need to learn at the beginning, and there will not be much money. And what we can do is that Xia Niangzi will take out the Qibao Jade Ruyi, and I will find a way to remove the wanted document of Cheng Yan. ”

Cheng Yan couldn't digest so much information at once, looked at Xing Qing suspiciously, and asked, "Jade Ruyi?" ”

Xing Qing already knew it in his heart, and his expression was calm: "Qibao Jade Ruyi is worth a lot of money, and only it can buy your freedom." ”

Cheng Yan was silent for a while, and bit his lip: "It's very simple for me to do things for my mother, even if I am a domestic servant, I will admit it." It's just that this matter has nothing to do with Xing Qing, and I don't want him to accept any conditions for me. ”

Ming Yi said softly: "This is not a condition, it is an opportunity. How could Xing Qing hide in the willow alleys of Flower Street all his life, in the fighting room, and not hear the sound outside the window. The West Market is prosperous and open, and there are many people who travel for business and people in the rivers and lakes, which can open their eyes and enrich their hearings. I'm sure Xing Qing is also very willing. ”

Ming Yi glanced at Xing Qing, and in the exchange of eyes, a thousand words had been exhausted. Now in Xinglu Courtyard, in addition to being safe, Xing Qing has not received any benefits, and for many years, the guests who have come and gone have not brought any useful news. If he arrives in the West Market, the people he can contact are different, and it is definitely a better choice for him. And he is in Xinglu Courtyard, more and more depressed, in the West Market, the two stores are adjacent, and he can see Chengyan every day and take care of each other, which is simply his dream.

Xing Qing understood and said, "I am naturally happy to be able to do something outside the Xinglu Courtyard." As I say, you don't need to worry about this, but I am blessed by you. ”

Xia Huanfeng laughed and said: "That's not the case, I have been in contact with Xing Qing for a long time, and I know that he is stable, thoughtful, and trustworthy, and I have been looking for a long time to find the most suitable person." ”

Cheng Yan was overjoyed when he heard it: "That's really a great joy for everyone." ”

Xing Qing had a smile on his lips, and there was still a layer of worry in his eyes, all in Mingyi's eyes, thinking that he was worried that he would cause trouble if he showed up. These need to be discussed with him separately by Xia Huanfeng.

The dust has roughly settled, Xia Huanfeng passed the wine and food, and then did not mention the future of the store and the two of them, but only said some rumors of the wind and moon, news of the rivers and lakes, for entertainment. The meal was also a great one.

After three rounds of drinking, Ming Yi glanced at Xia Huanfeng and acted separately.

"Cheng Yan, you accompany me to the old mansion, take a batch of new products, and give them to Xia Niangzi here as gifts to guests. I'm not good at riding, so I'm going to have to take you along. Ming Yi made an excuse at random, just to give Xia Niangzi a chance to talk to Xing Qing alone.

Cheng Yan is still a little reluctant: "Okay, let's come when we go, and continue to drink." ”

Along the way, Cheng Yan was overjoyed, and Mingyi was a little worried after all. Let Xia Huanfeng and Xing Qing talk alone, like walking a tightrope, there are still risks. Afraid that Xing Qing would say that he was a wandering soul, he would have to spend a lot of effort to explain to Xia Huanfeng. I was afraid that Xia Huanfeng would reveal the secret of his identity to Xing Qing, and then be hated by Xing Qing.

Back at the old house, Ming Yi deliberately stayed for a while, pretending to talk to Lianshan about new products, and all kinds of manpower and material arrangements needed for the Xishi store to open at any time. In order to leave enough time for Xia Huanfeng, poor Cheng Yan was like an ant on a hot pot on the side, but he didn't dare to urge.

Finally set off to return to Dongshi, just in case, Ming Yi first let Cheng Yan stay on the first floor, register the new makeup powder he brought with Mr. Bookkeeper one by one, go back to the private room, and knock on the door.

Inside, the atmosphere of the three of them was a little awkward. Xing Qing's face was not very good-looking, and he had a sense of detachment. Ming Yi looked at Xia Huanfeng and saw him nod slightly, before he put his mind at ease.

Xing Qing stood up and arched his hand: "Since the matter has been settled, I will not stay for a long time, I will negotiate with Yin's mother about leaving Xinglu Courtyard in the past few days, after all, she has taken me in with kindness, and I still need to arrange the unfinished business." And let Xinglu Academy select a new violinist, things are in order, I came to see Xia Niangzi, I am willing to drive. ”

Xing Qing also owed a slight debt to Mingyi, and said goodbye: "I will say goodbye for Cheng Yan and take him away first." ”

As soon as the words fell, the person had already gone out.

Ming Yi was a little confused, so Xia Huanfeng beckoned her to sit down: "Don't worry, everything is going well." ”

Xia Huanfeng repeated his words.

He got straight to the point, and said that when he saw Xing Qing on the first day, he knew that he had deep internal strength, coupled with his skills in playing the qin, and inferred that he was the heir of the Wei family.

Xing Qing was shocked and hurriedly denied it.

Xia Huanfeng ignored it, and said frankly, saying that he knew that once this identity was exposed, it might endanger his life, and he was willing to exchange life-threatening secrets with him. He told all about his position as the deputy leader of the Shangguan Gang, and the fact that he was disguised as a woman and received the support of the Tianyi Gang and the Shentu family. If his secret is revealed, not only will his life be guaranteed, but I am afraid that the Shangguan gang will be bulldozed by the two gangs.

After that, Xing Qing no longer denied his identity.

Xia Huanfeng put out all the conditions, first, in the name of his sister and brother, he gave him a new identity, no longer a piano master under the fence, but the younger brother of the Xia shopkeeper, who will be the mainstay of the Shangguan gang in the future; Second, after the Shangguan Gang can compete with the three gangs, it will lure out the forces behind the three gangs, help him find the enemy, and try his best to help him take revenge.

As for Mingyi's side, Xia Huanfeng explained that he had just learned that Mingyi had a great friendship with the Shi gang leader and had joined the gang, implying that the Shi gang leader was the master Ming Yi said, and the stars were like gods. Xia Huanfeng asked Ming Yi for confirmation of her doubts about Xing Qing's identity, but she refused to admit it.

This remark is tight, although Xing Qing is inevitably suspicious, but now, he can only share a boat with them. Xia Huanfeng also made a ruthless move, and Xing Qing had a grudge against the three gangs in his heart, and he would never betray himself.

Ming Yi kept shaking his head, looked at Xia Huanfeng and sighed: "You are so powerful, I will never dare to be your enemy." ”
