Section 170 Chapter 170 Opening of the Distillery (3)

"Why did their brother and sister come, and I also sent a post to the Zheng Mansion?" Hearing that Zheng Tong and Zheng Fangfei were also here, Lu Xianger immediately forgot her previous shyness and hurriedly stood up and looked out the window. In her heart, she felt the arrival of the Zheng brothers and sisters, and the chance of not making trouble was too small.

Huo Qingqing and Wen Yao, who walked next to Lu Xiang'er, both saw Zheng Fangfei with a smiling face like a flower from the window, and looked at Lu Xiang'er at the same time. When Lu Xiang'er saw the eyes of the two, she retreated, sat down and said, "You don't have to look at me, I won't go out to entertain her." ”

Chaoxia, who had not made a sound, suddenly said at this time: "Xiang'er, even if you don't go, I'm afraid she will come up, and the people sitting in the reception room below are all male guests." ”

I don't know if it was Chaoxia's words that reminded Huo Qingsong, or if he just remembered that he was a little inappropriate in facing a few little ladies. Anyway, after Chaoxia finished speaking, Huo Qingsong put down the teacup, got up and said, "I'll go down and have a look." There's nothing special, just sit here and don't go out. After speaking, Huo Qingsong raised his feet and walked out of the room.

When Huo Qingsong went downstairs, he happened to walk opposite Zheng Fangfei, who was led upstairs by Lu Hong. Zheng Fangfei had also seen Huo Qingsong a few times, but she was always from afar, and she had never been so close as she was today. Realizing Huo Qingsong's lofty aura, Zheng Fangfei's heart beat a little faster, and some admiration appeared in her eyes.

But Huo Qingsong saw Zheng Fangfei's expression, but his face was cold, and he didn't speak to Lu Hong, so he quickly went downstairs. After Zheng Fangfei came to Jingshi, it was the first time she was treated like this, so she couldn't help biting her lip with some annoyance and snorting lightly.

Lu Hong, who was walking in front, saw everything that happened on the stairs very clearly, but he ignored Zheng Fangfei's mood. If it weren't for the fact that there was no place downstairs to entertain female guests, Lu Hong didn't want Zheng Fangfei to come upstairs at all, so that Lu Xiang'er would be an eyesore. However, there are still Huo Qingqing and Wen Yao, and Lu Hong doesn't think that Zheng Fangfei dares to go too far.

Sure enough, after Zheng Fangfei entered the house, she found that in addition to Lu Xiang'er's sister-in-law Chaoxia, there were also Huo Qingqing and Wen Yao in the house, and her eyes kept turning. After meeting the four of them, Zheng Fangfei sat on the side and didn't say anything, just listened to Lu Xiang'er and Huo Qingqing and Wen Yao say some interesting things.

However, Zheng Fangfei saw that Huo Qingqing, Wen Yao and Lu Xiang'er were so good, and she was extremely jealous in her heart at the same time. Needless to say, Huo Qingqing's identity is even more fearful, and Wen Yao makes Zheng Fangfei even more fearful. From the mouths of Zheng Baiyang and the little lady who intersected, Zheng Fangfei knew that although Wen Yao's grandfather, Mrs. Wen, had already become a minister, he still had the attention of His Majesty the Emperor. And Wen Yao's father is Dali Qing, and even Zheng Baiyang wants to be friends with him. As for Wen Yao, she is a famous 'talented girl' in Beijing, I don't know how many sons admire her, I hope to say a word or two with her.

For Lu Xiang'er to be able to laugh with Wen Yao very smoothly, Zheng Fangfei looked at Lu Xiang'er more and more dazzling. But when he heard that the eldest princess Zhao Shuping, the third prince Zhao Chengru, the fourth prince Zhao Chengmin, and Li Wenhao of the Zhongyong Mansion and some other people came in person or sent congratulatory plaques, Zheng Fangfei's small mouth kept slightly open. This made Chaoxia, who was watching her, secretly amused, but also a little puzzled.

In fact, not only Chaoxia is strange, but even Lu Xianger is a little inexplicable and flattered. Looking at Huo Qingqing, Lu Xiang'er didn't care about Zheng Fangfei beside her, so she asked, "Qingqing, do you know Her Royal Highness the eldest princess and Her Royal Highness the Third Prince......

"Xiang'er, these are all the credit of my uncle, and I only found out by eavesdropping on the conversation between my brother and my uncle." Huo Qingqing got up and saw the onlookers outside, they all exclaimed, and then said with a smile: "Xiang'er, I believe that from tomorrow, Piaoxiang Wine Workshop will be able to spread throughout the entire Jingshi." This scene is not something that ordinary shops can make. ”

Lu Xiang'er didn't care about Huo Qingqing's truncation of her words, but was thinking about Song Yuan's efforts for her, and she didn't know how much effort she had done. Even the eldest princess and the third prince sent congratulatory plaques, Song Yuan really wanted Lu Xiang'er's Piaoxiang Wine Shop to become famous in one fell swoop. But whether this is a good thing or a bad thing, Lu Xianger doesn't know at all.

Just thinking of this, Tie Ge'er, who was a little excited, said loudly again: "Her Royal Highness Princess Jingrou has arrived, and the opening of the wine shop is auspicious——"

"Princess Jingrou?!" Hearing this name, the faces of Lu Xiang'er, Chaoxia, Huo Qingqing, and Wen Yao suddenly changed. But Zheng Fangfei, who saw the faces of several people, rolled her eyes, and then lowered her head, not knowing what she was thinking.

It is said that Princess Jingrou went out of the palace this time, and she only took her palace maid named Chunxi with her. The master and servant were dressed in ordinary clothes, but they were still extremely luxurious. When Princess Jingrou saw the plaque of the wine shop, her face changed slightly, but her eyes were even more annoyed. Outsiders may not know anything, but she knows that this plaque was carved by Huo Qingsong. Huo Qingsong is so attentive to Lu Xiang'er, how can Princess Jingrou be calm. Thinking of her purpose for coming here, Princess Jingrou tried to calm her mind before entering the winery.

Yuan Musheng guessed that there might be His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince who came here today, how to say that he had a good relationship with Huo Qingsong. Therefore, Yuan Musheng specially prepared a smaller room to entertain a few nobles. To Yuan Musheng's surprise, Princess Jingrou, the most favored princess of the dynasty, would also come. Yuan Musheng had to personally invite Princess Jingrou to the room where the four princes Zhao Chengmin, Li Wenhao, Wen Song and Huo Qingsong were.

As soon as she walked into this room and saw Li Wenhao and Wen Song, Princess Jingrou's eyes flashed with a hint of discoloration. And after a few people saluted her first, Princess Jingrou walked towards Zhao Chengmin and said coquettishly: "I have long heard that the fourth brother is easy and close to the people, and now I see that the fourth brother has condescended to personally participate in the opening of a winery, which is really eye-opening for my sister." ”

"Yo, I haven't seen you for a few days, and my sister's mouth has become neat. If Concubine Xiang sees her sister now, she won't complain to the fourth brother and me. The corners of Zhao Chengmin's mouth raised slightly, and a demonic smile suddenly rose. Several other people in the room were very shaken by this smile, and Li Wenhao muttered a few words to himself.

On the other hand, when Princess Jingrou heard Zhao Chengmin's words again, her face froze, and she smiled unnaturally, and turned her gaze away. In the heart of Princess Jingrou, she blamed herself for not being angry, and she couldn't forget Zhao Chengmin's bloodthirsty eyes and the murderous intent.

Princess Jingrou, who didn't want to think about that scene anymore, smiled at Li Wenhao and Wen Song: "I didn't expect that the two of you would also come to this small wine shop, it's really strange." Could it be that the two of you also want to be 'overwhelmed' by the demeanor of the little wine lady? ”

Princess Jingrou said this, but she belittled Lu Xiang'er to the bottom, and she simply equated Lu Xiang'er with the famous prostitute of the Qinglou. And Li Wenhao and Wen Song became gentlemen who were confused by beauty in the mouth of Princess Jingrou. After Li Wenhao and Wen Song heard this, their faces naturally changed slightly, and displeasure flashed in their eyes. However, the two of them knew that Princess Jingrou had offended Huo Qingsong ruthlessly, so they replied, 'The princess said it was funny', and then they didn't say anything more.

Li Chengmin even sneered secretly, not looking at Princess Jingrou. He had long known Princess Jingrou's thoughts, but he also knew Huo Qingsong's temperament. The more Princess Jingrou embarrassed Lu Xiang'er, Huo Qingsong hated her. It's a pity that Princess Jingrou is still unknown, pushing Huo Qingsong farther and farther.

As for Huo Qingsong, when Princess Jingrou said those words, his face was cold and terrifying. If it weren't for the fact that today was a big day for Lu Xiang'er, Huo Qingsong would have wanted to leave with his sleeves up, and he wouldn't even have the heart to pay tribute to Princess Jingrou. Glancing coldly at Princess Jingrou, Huo Qingsong stood up and prepared to walk out.

But Princess Jingrou seemed to see that Huo Qingsong didn't want to face her, and deliberately said: "Today is a big day, why don't you see Little Lady Lu." Isn't she here, I want to congratulate her personally. ”

"Your Royal Highness Princess, the downstairs is full of male guests, so naturally Little Lady Lu can't stay here." Huo Qingsong turned around and looked at Princess Jingrou coldly, and returned what she had just said. Since Princess Jingrou belittled Lu Xiang'er so much, Huo Qingsong was not polite, and secretly Princess Jingrou ignored the princess's face and got along with several men.

When Li Wenhao and Wen Song heard what Huo Qingsong said, their faces were a little strange, as if they wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh. But in the hearts of the two, they had already laughed. In fact, for a little lady like Princess Jingrou, both of them held a respectful and distant heart, but they didn't dare to offend her. And those who dare to sarcastically mock Princess Jingrou like this are only the fourth prince Zhao Chengmin, and this Huo Qingsong, who is afraid of anything.

Besides, of course, Princess Jingrou could see Li Wenhao and Wen Song's expressions, and her face turned blue and red. Huo Qingsong, who was waiting to see her leave in a hurry, found that Princess Jingrou quickly returned to her normal complexion, and said, "Since this is not a place to entertain female guests, then I will go to Little Lady Lu." ”

"Okay, take the princess upstairs." Huo Qingsong made a 'please' gesture, and waited for Princess Jingrou to walk out of the room before following out. However, Huo Qingsong raised his spirits because of Princess Jingrou's abnormal performance. When leading Princess Jingrou into the upstairs room, Huo Qingsong immediately glanced at Chaoxia before exiting the room.

Speaking of which, there is really some tacit understanding between Chaoxia and Huo Qingsong. Of course, it's not about the relationship between men and women, it's a bit like a partner. Maybe this has something to do with Chaoxia's father-in-law dying at the hands of Huo Qingsong, and Huo Qingsong understands Chaoxia. When he was raised in Jiangling Zhichong Mansion, there was this tacit development between Chaoxia and Huo Qingsong. In short, Chaoxia understood Huo Qingsong's eyes, and secretly paid attention to Princess Jingrou with a smile on her face.

Knowing that Princess Jingrou went up to the second floor, Lu Hong was not idle. Seeing that the time was almost up, he asked Yuan Musheng to light firecrackers for the opening celebration. When Yuan Musheng beckoned his peers to taste the soju in the winery, as well as wine and other fruit wines, Lu Hong also personally invited the four princes and others to a nearby restaurant for a banquet.

Princess Jingrou, who had just spoken a few words to Zheng Fangfei, saw that Lu Hong was invited, and she happily went there without any inappropriateness. And Zheng Fangfei said a few words to Princess Jingrou, and then thought that she had caught up with a nobleman, swept away the previous dullness, and took the initiative to get close to Princess Jingrou.

Princess Jingrou's strange behavior was very puzzled by Lu Xiang'er, but it also made her secretly wary and looked forward to the day passing soon......
