Yi Xiangxiang didn't know that the secrets she had hidden for many years had been exposed in one name after another! God knows! This is really a coincidence, she just thought these words were festive and took the name!

Take a look, the joy building is the first to open, if the word solitaire should be directly connected with "music"!

Later, after she learned that Zhao Ziqian guessed the name, she was very angry at her lack of rigor. But I figured it out at once, if this fox stares at the chicken, it must be clear when it goes to bed and when it crows!

Although she didn't think it was appropriate to compare herself to a chicken at the time, it was a good description.

I won't say anything about it for the time being, but at this time she was eating happily in the floating pavilion of the paradise, and the winter in Kyoto was so cold that it made people shiver, not to mention how good this hot pot was.

"Miss, the number has been called to the hundredth!" Shumei excitedly pushed open the door of the Floating Life Pavilion and came in to report.

Because there were too many people who came to eat hot pot, Yi Xiangxiang followed Xile Lou and got the way to queue up to get the number.

Qing Xuan handed the prepared sauce to Yi Xiangxiang, who quickly took out the hairy belly that had just been thrown into the pot and dipped it in the sauce, and only after a few bites of satisfaction did he pay attention to Shumei.

"Well, that's not bad, you can make a good profit through the Winter Paradise! You go tell everyone, let them all cheer up, and I will send them red envelopes during the New Year! ”

The park has been expensive from preparation to opening, and now it is only a little more than a month before Chinese New Year's Eve, although it cannot fully recover the cost in this short time, it should not be a problem to earn a few fractions back.

While Yi Xiangxiang was talking, she was picking up a gilded peach-shaped silver plate and preparing to put meat into the pot, and the corners of her grinning mouth showed her excitement. Jiang Jingshan next to her saw that Yi Xiangxiang was distracted, afraid that she would be scalded by the soup splashed in the hot pot, so she took the silver plate in her hand to help serve the food.

The plate is filled with beef cubes cut into small cubes, and Yi Xiangxiang also makes people mix it with sweet potato powder to make it more tender. Not long after the beef grains were poured, she and Yi Ruofu, the two greedy ones, each fished out half of them with a colander. Yi Luochuan was very helpless about this, so he could only call someone to play another game.

The park opened, and although the elders of the Yi family did not come over to join in the fun, the slightly older juniors were basically there. Because Yi Hanxi was in Kyoto all the year round, it was really rare to have such a time to get together, so now the carved rich round table in the room can be regarded as a happy one.

"Eighth sister, give me a ball!" Yi Ruofu buried her head in hard work, and at the same time, did not forget to support Yi Xiangxiang.

"Do it yourself, have enough food and clothing!" Yi Xiangxiang ignored Yi Ruofu.

Yi Ruofu quit: "You just asked the third sister-in-law to help you cook!" ”

Yi Xiangxiang took a sip of tea to moisten her throat: "That's the third sister-in-law who feels sorry for me, don't think about it, I feel sorry for no one who feels sorry for you!" ”

Yi Xiangxiang, who swallowed the tea, felt a little missing, and it should be cool with Bingxue at this time! But soon she buried her head in the food war again, completely ignoring Yi Ruofu's later vicious words, "I really want to smash the pot on your head!" ”

Yi Ruojiao and Yi Ruofan, who were on the other side of the round table, looked at each other when they heard this, and they both saw a little ridicule in each other's eyes.

In their opinion, Yi Ruofu has always had various friendships and intimacy with Yi Xiangxiang, and they are all slapping them in the face, after all, they were the first to take the initiative to please Yi Xiangxiang. It's just that they didn't expect that Yi Xiangxiang didn't accept their kindness, but had a better relationship with Yi Ruofu, who was originally an enemy! In this regard, they are naturally angry.

This is not the most important thing, the important thing is that I heard that Yi Ruofu also has good things from Yongle Jushun from time to time, and even the third brother Yi Luochuan occasionally sees chic flowers and plants on the street, and he will move to Yi Ruofu's Fu Courtyard.

When they heard about it, they were naturally envious and jealous.

But seriously, the one they envy the most is Yi Xiangxiang. The latter was born as a concubine, but her life was so good that her father was promoted, her mother did business, and now she has opened a shop for her.

The paradise is now Yi Xiangxiang's industry, which is known not only to the people in the Yi family, but also to the people in Kyoto City.

Most people thought that it was the Lin family who doted on their daughter, so they opened a paradise in order to satisfy their appetite, and recorded the property in their daughter's name. is that many daughters in Kyoto are envious of Yi Xiangxiang's love for her parents, after all, even in a big family, she did not help her daughter buy a shop before she got married.

Yi Xiangxiang feels that she is now a white rich beauty who attracts people's eyes, oh no, at most she is a white rich, her appearance is not beautiful in Kyoto City.

A group of people were happily eating hot pot, and while they were feasting, they vaguely heard a noisy sound from downstairs.

Yi Xiangxiang raised her head and motioned for Shumei to go out to see what was going on, and after a while, Shumei returned, still with anger on her face.

"Miss...... Be...... It was Miaoqin who asked to see her, but was stopped downstairs by Huali, and the two quarreled. Shumei said with some concern.

She knew that Miss didn't like others to replace Miaoqin, and this name had become taboo in Yongleju over the years.

Yi Xiangxiang didn't care about this anymore, but was slightly stunned, but she was the gentlest maid in Yongle Curie, so she would quarrel?

"Blowing people out is, what are you arguing with her!" Yi Ruofu had already learned from Yi Xiangxiang about the cause and effect of Miaoqin leaving with the Hou Mansion, so she didn't have a good impression of this person.

Yi Ruojiao and Yi Ruofan wondered when they heard this, wasn't Miaoqin the eldest girl before the eighth sister? The one that was taken away by the Marquis of Changping after that? How can you look at this situation, is there a grudge?

"Why bomb away? Miaoqin is not the maid of the eighth sister, I heard that it is now the concubine of the Changping Marquis Mansion, we can't offend people! ”

In order to find out what was going on, Yi Ruojiao said this sentence unkindly.

Yi Ruofu snorted coldly disdainfully when she heard this, and didn't give Yi Ruojiao any face: "What? Our sixth sister still wants to have a meal with the concubine of the Hou Mansion? Do you want her to find a way for you and enter the Hou Mansion too? ”

Her words were so explicit and ugly that Yi Ruojiao's face changed on the spot.

"Fifth sister, what are you talking about......" Yi Ruojiao was about to have a seizure, but was interrupted by Yi Xiangxiang.

"What are they arguing about?" Yi Xiangxiang didn't like Yi Ruojiao's deliberate actions, so she cut off her words very unceremoniously and asked about the specific situation downstairs in Shumei.

Shumei suppressed the anger in her heart and replied in a calm tone as much as possible: "Miaoqin wanted to come up to see Miss, but was stopped by Huali. Then she scolded her for having no conscience, and said some things about how she treated us well when we were children. However, she was indifferent to this, and she began to say that the young lady gave her to the prince of the Hou Mansion and other lies, and she couldn't help but quarrel with her. ”

In the past, Shumei was young and didn't know why Miaoqin was taken away by the people of the Hou Mansion, and it wasn't until later that she learned the cause and effect from Sister Leqi's mouth. Originally, she didn't have any dislike for Miaoqin, after all, she did take care of them when she was a child. But I didn't expect people to come up and repay the favor, forget it, and slander Miss out of nothing!

Painting is the most respected lady in their group of maids.,I didn't come forward to grab Hua Miaoqin's face is already very good-looking.,If it's not outside.,Shumei would want to go up and pick Miaoqin's hair!

"Heh, I'm really picky!" Yi Ruofu put down her chopsticks and mocked.

It's not a good time, the Yi family has been in Kyoto for more than half a month, this Miaoqin will not come sooner or later, but when the park opens, it is clear that Yi Xiangxiang must see her.

Jiang Jingshan also put down her chopsticks, she brushed the broken hair in her ears and said, "You eat first, I'll go downstairs and have a look." ”

She also knows about Miaoqin, after all, Meng Qihan, the son of the Marquis of Changping, is her cousin, although she is not close, she has also heard Yi Luochuan mention that Miaoqin left the Hou Mansion.

As Yi Xiangxiang's sister-in-law, she couldn't let that Miaoqin damage Yi Xiangxiang's reputation, so she was ready to get up after she finished speaking.

Yi Xiangxiang hurriedly swallowed the balls in her mouth and stopped: "Don't don't, I'll go, I'll go!" She grabbed Jiang Jingshan and asked her to sit back in her place.

"If you don't call someone up, why go down yourself?" Yi Ruofu asked puzzled.

"I saw that you have a lot of brains just now, why are you stuck now? She is obviously looking for a backstage to reminisce about the old relationship, so I don't bother to take her porcelain work! Yi Xiangxiang said and stuffed another lettuce strip into her mouth, and her demeanor was so rude that she was glared at by Yi Luochuan, so she quickly put down her chopsticks and prepared to go downstairs.

Seeing this, Yi Ruofu also immediately got up: "I'll go with you, so as not to suffer a loss!" ”

"I think you want to see the excitement, right?" Yi Xiangxiang looked at Yi Ruofu's eagerness to try, and was very suspicious of her purpose.

"Am I that kind of person? Really! Look at it, no one can quarrel Miss Ben! Yi Ruofu pushed Yi Xiangxiang to the door as she spoke, not giving Yi Xiangxiang a chance to refuse at all.

So, Yi Xiangxiang and Yi Ruofu walked out of the Fusheng Pavilion together and walked to the first floor, and the two soon saw Miaoqin.

Miaoqin wears a purple half-arm, a white collar with gold buttons, and a waist-length dress. The inside is a long-sleeved and short-sleeved jacket with white cuffs. The hem is a dark green pleated skirt with a dark blue bib. She wears her hair in a bun on the top of her head, with emerald leaf gold flower jewelry, and gold and pearl earrings in her ears.

If this dress is based on the Hou Mansion as the background, it is not gorgeous at all, but a little plain.

After she saw Yi Xiangxiang walking down, she ran over and bowed to her and Yi Ruofu at the top of the stairs, forcing Yi Xiangxiang and the two to retreat above the stairs. Before the two of them could stand firmly, they heard Miaoqin, who was kneeling below, crying.

Yes, the good mood is gone!

Yi Xiangxiang and Yi Ruofu sighed at each other.

"If you cry again, I'll have someone throw you out!" Yi Xiangxiang looked at Miaoqin below indifferently and said.

Miaoqin quickly silenced when she heard this, others may not know, but she knows that Yi Xiangxiang is a master who does what she says.

The guests in the hall of the park who were cooking shabu-shabu were all paying attention to this side, because everyone was staring at it with all of them blatantly.

Yi Xiangxiang secretly slandered in her heart, this year's diners are really gossipy!

"Miss is in good health, I haven't seen her for many years, Miaoqin misses Miss very much." Miaoqin took out a handkerchief and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, pretending to ask Yi Xiangxiang delicately.

Yi Ruofu said that she wanted to vomit, could it be that she had eaten too much hot pot?

Yi Xiangxiang finally understood why Huali quarreled with Miaoqin, as far as the other party's crying and noisy show was concerned, she wanted to go up and slap her twice to make her sober!

Eh, the gentle and quiet people of the past have really changed.

"Aunt Zhou is afraid that she has forgotten her identity, since the moment you left the Yi family, you are not my maid in Yongleju!"

Even in front of so many people, Yi Xiangxiang didn't plan to give Miaoqin face. This is actually the same reason as the Huang family, Yi Xiangxiang doesn't want Miaoqin to have the opportunity to rely on the Yi family.

"Eighth sister, I'm afraid you forgot, right? This lady was not accepted into the Changping Marquis Mansion, so she is not an aunt! Yi Ruofu looked at Miaoqin mockingly, beating snakes and hitting seven inches, over the years, under Yi Xiangxiang's deliberate training, she has also learned a little bit of kung fu.

The reason why Meng Qihan was able to take Miaoqin away back then was because he promised Mrs. Hou that Miaoqin would not be allowed to enter the house before his wife entered the door. Later, although the wife entered the door, she was a strong one, and would rather open her face to the maid next to her than let Miaoqin enter the door. To this day, Miaoqin is still a nameless outroom.

Yi Xiangxiang smiled when she heard this, and turned to Yi Ruofu with big eyes and an innocent glare: "I don't know what to call her for a while, besides, the name is just a codename!" But if it's not in line, I'll call her Mrs. Zhou. Zhou Niangzi, you say it can be done? ”

The two sisters sang and harmonized, so that Miaoqin, who was kneeling below, instantly blackened her face.

Miaoqin's family name was Zhou before she was sold into Yifu, and she was called Aunt Zhou by Yi Xiangxiang just now. Now that she is no longer a slave in the Yi Mansion, and she has not entered the Hou Mansion, it is indeed more appropriate to call her Mrs. Zhou.

"Miss, Miaoqin has been thinking about you, all these years Miaoqin has been worried about whether Miss eats and sleeps well, Miss, you look thin." Miaoqin continues to publish a tearful offensive as a way to express her so-called longing for the Lord.

Yi Ruofu said that she really couldn't stand it, if she didn't know, she would definitely feel that this girl was affectionate and righteous, but as a person who knew the truth, she only felt that Miaoqin was hypocritical and contrived at the moment, and she wanted to step forward and kick her twice now!

"Alright, okay, don't pretend here! My eighth sister is white and chubby, where is she thin! How can you talk nonsense with your eyes open! Yi Ruofu rolled her eyes and scolded Miaoqin.

The people around laughed when they heard this, and even Sheng Changhong, who was sitting by the window with a solemn face, hooked the corners of his mouth. He followed everyone and turned their eyes to Yi Xiangxiang, and found that although this girl was slender and beautiful, her face was indeed round!

Yi Xiangxiang is speechless, this is baby fat, it is cute! Do you understand, really! A group of uninformed ancients!

Miaoqin saw that Yi Xiangxiang didn't pay attention to her, and saw that Miss Wu didn't speak according to the routine, so she cried and took out a nirvana: "Miss, why should you be like this, you asked Miaoqin to curry favor with Meng Qihan, the prince of the Changping Marquis Mansion, Miaoqin didn't do well, this is Miaoqin's fault!" But you can't be so ruthless and leave Miaoqin behind! ”

Hey, not only learned to pretend to be weak, but also learned to be honest! Yi Xiangxiang had to praise Miaoqin's rapid growth, it seems that this Kyoto is really a great gladiatorial arena.

Eh, speaking of which, if you are not a good fabric that does not stick to color, you will naturally be impregnated with colorful colors in the big dye vat. Yi Xiangxiang has a lot of emotion about the changes in Miaoqin!

She sighed herself, and the people around her listened to Miaoqin's words, and they all stared at Yi Xiangxiang with "my God" eyes.

Yi Xiangxiang is also very helpless for some people's brainlessness, but dirty water can't let Miaoqin be splashed like this. She shook her head and was about to open her mouth to fight back at Miaoqin, but she didn't want a young man sitting by the lobby window to speak first.

"This lady, how long have you been in Kyoto?" The voice is gentle and cool, and the voice is charming.

The boy who spoke was wearing a blue robe, and he was magnificent! And even in winter, he has an ivory folding fan in his hand, and he is graceful.

Miaoqin turned her head and saw that the person who spoke was Luo Baohua, and hurriedly got up and bowed and said, "If you go back to Luo Shizi, it has been almost eight years since the concubine came to Kyoto!" ”

Luo Baohua is a popular figure in the wealthy circle of Kyoto, although Miaoqin is still standing outside the circle, she has also seen Luo Baohua because of Meng Qihan's relationship.

She thought that Luo Baohua was going to help her, after all, in the rumors in Kyoto, although this Luo Baohua is notoriously difficult to serve, she is used to fighting unevenly, and often gives alms to the little beggars on the side of the road.

But she didn't expect that Luo Baohua would laugh when she heard this: "Eight years, how old was this girl eight years ago?" would even arrange his maid to please the son? This lie really makes people laugh out loud! ”

Luo Baohua and Meng Qihan also have some occasional contacts, most of them are at poetry parties, and they meet on weekdays just to say hello and nod their heads. When he met Meng Qihan by chance, he saw the outer room in front of him, and complained about Meng Qihan's aesthetics in his heart, but he didn't have any questions about his private affairs.

Miaoqin is in Luo Baohua's eyes, and she is really not a beauty.

When everyone heard this, they all looked at Yi Xiangxiang again, yes, this girl is not very old, she was still a little girl eight years ago!

At this point, Miaoqin's words were completely unconvincing.

Miaoqin watched the wind turn, and everyone's sympathy for her turned into disdain, and she hurriedly said, "Yes...... It was Mrs. Yi who made me do this! ”

"One moment it was Miss Yi, and the next moment it was Mrs. Yi, are you really thinking that everyone is a fool?" Luo Baohua hates this kind of maid the most, and he has to say that he is forced to be ambitious, so his tone gradually becomes unkind.

If Yi Xiangxiang knew what Luo Baohua was thinking at this time, she would definitely tell him that this situation can be described by a common saying, that is, "When you are a bitch, you still want to build an archway!" ”

"I didn't lie, it was the Yi family who asked me to do this, otherwise I would have to be a concubine for a good girl's family!" Miaoqin saw that the situation was becoming more and more unfavorable to her, so she began to cry vigorously.

Luo Baohua was not afraid of the woman's tears, and pouted and said, "I think you came to the old club again when you saw that the courtyard of the Marquis of Changping was cold, right?" I don't know what Meng Qihan likes about you, I really don't know what to say! ”

Meng Zhaoyi and his two sons were both victimized on the day Zhao Ziyu forced the palace, and the Changping Marquis Mansion lost its daughter and two grandsons who were princes at once, so they were naturally heartbroken. Since then, the Changping Marquis Mansion has indeed had fewer visitors than usual.

But Miaoqin didn't come because of this, after all, she hadn't even entered the door yet, and it had nothing to do with her whether the Hou Mansion was cold or warm.

The reason why she came to see Yi Xiangxiang was because Jiang Shi, the wife of the Marquis of Changping, who had lost her beloved daughter and grandson, had been sick in bed, and Meng Qihan took his wife to take care of her mother with the decoction, and she hadn't come to see Miaoqin for a long time. The second is that the little maid who Miaoqin bought in the Hou Mansion came with the news that Jiang was forcing Meng Qihan to sell Miaoqin under the pretext of illness, and this was the ultimate reason why she came to Yi Xiangxiang.

Miaoqin knows that Yi Xiangxiang is now the daughter of the Ministry of Shangshu, as long as she comes out to make decisions for herself, not to mention that she will not be sold, the Changping Hou Mansion will definitely respectfully take her into the Hou Mansion! After all, now the Yi family is a new upstart in the court, and they are quite respected by the saints, and they will never be offended.

But she also knew that Yi Xiangxiang had broken off with her before, and she was in a panic with the intention of threatening Yi Xiangxiang.

It's a pity, she has been away from Yi Mansion for eight years, how do you know that Yi Xiangxiang is not afraid of threats now.

Yi Xiangxiang had no intention of continuing to argue with Miaoqin, and directly let go of the cruel words: "I let you go today, if you are still outside in the future to ruin me or my mother's reputation, I will let people beat you to death!" I believe that by that time, Mrs. Hou or Mrs. Shizi will be happy to transfer your deed to me. ”

It was common for the master to kill the slave who had pinched the deed of his body.

Miaoqin was shocked when she heard this: "You dare! ”

"Hehe, laughing to death! Look at how dare I! You just think that I will be afraid that I will be infamous for being ruthless, so I dare not do it. But instead of letting you slander the Yi family outside, I will do it, dare to bear it! If you don't believe me, give it a try! Yi Xiangxiang said with a sneer, not at all like a fake.

Although she also cherishes her feathers, she will not let others ruin the reputation of the Yi family. When dealing with Yi Ruonan back then, she was able to make a decisive decision, not to mention this slave who didn't miss the old love!

"Just do it! Miss Yi rest assured, if there is really that time, this son will help you kill her! Luo Baohua's voice was even more arrogant.

When things came to this point, Miaoqin naturally didn't dare to stay any longer, and quickly withdrew from the paradise.

Yi Xiangxiang turned sideways in the direction of Luo Baohua and Sheng Changhong, and said to them: "Fourth brother Yi Hanxi just mentioned Shizi and Sheng Gongzi in the Fusheng Pavilion, saying that the two nobles have a lot of care for Xile Building. Today's park opened, a few brothers and sisters of our family are eating upstairs, I wonder if Luo Shizi and Sheng Gongzi can enjoy their faces and move to the Fusheng Pavilion for a while? ”

She saw it through the afterglow just now, that Tanhualang Sheng Changhong laughed when his fifth sister spoke, and then secretly looked at the fifth sister several times! And this Bai Xiaosheng Luo Baohua is also interested in getting acquainted, so she only came to the invitation after such a comprehensive introduction! Anyway, there are brothers in the Fusheng Pavilion, and they won't attract gossip when they enter.

Luo Baohua saw that Yi Xiangxiang was so frank, so he naturally wouldn't be hypocritical: "This son has long wanted to get to know Yi Sangongzi, and I hope that the two young ladies will lead the way." ”

So Luo Baohua and Sheng Changhong walked into the Fusheng Pavilion.
