Chapter 179: The No. 1 Talent in the Capital is optimistic about you
Zhang Luoer only returned to her residence in the middle of the night, she is now lonely, and there are no relatives and friends, the other girls in the compound went home a few days earlier for the New Year, she planned to sleep all day on the first day of the new year, but she didn't expect to sleep until noon, a group of people rushed into the courtyard, directly kicked the door of her bedroom open, and pulled her off the bed.
Zhang Luo'er saw clearly that the person who came was Fufeng, and there were some people standing behind her, she suddenly sobered up, knelt on the ground, and said nervously: "I don't know if the princess has arrived, I miss the distance, and I hope to forgive my sins." What is the princess looking for me? ”
Fufeng glanced at Zhang Luo'er's bedroom, then chuckled, and said to Zhang Luo'er: "What did Princess Ben tell you last night, did you forget?" ”
Zhang Luo'er had already thought of a reply, and immediately said: "Princess, I was wronged, I had already brought the cup of medicine to An Ge, but she found out, fortunately there were many people at the time, and she didn't make trouble, otherwise the princess would be implicated." ”
Fufeng looked at her lightly and said, "Oh? The medicine was colorless and tasteless, how did she find out? ”
"Yes...... An Ge has always been careful, she saw my face, so she didn't want to drink what I took over......" Zhang Luo'er knew that it would be useless to argue any longer, so she immediately offered a plan, "The princess wants to deal with An Ge, I know what to do, An Ge's good sister Liu Pingle is much simpler, as long as the princess starts with her, then An Ge will definitely not be able to escape." ”
Fu Feng seemed to be interested, glanced at her, and asked, "Who is Liu Pingle?" ”
"The concubine of the Ministry of Works' squire Lord Liu's family." Zhang Luo'er was afraid that she would find fault, so she immediately said, "Princess, as long as the relationship between the two of them is separated, An Ge must be heartbroken in his heart...... This makes her even more uncomfortable than poisoning her with a packet of medicine. ”
Fu Feng thought for a while, nodded and said, "Okay, this princess will give you another chance." ”
Zhang Luo'er nodded again and again: "Yes...... But princess, my family is poor, I don't have money and can't afford to find people, and the Liu family is also a big family, I'm afraid I won't be able to get close to her...... If it is convenient for the princess, can you assign two men to me......
Fufeng nodded, turned around and ordered two followers to come out, and said to them: "You two, follow her for a few days, and come back when the matter is done." ”
The two men immediately responded.
Fu Feng said coldly to Zhang Luo'er: "Now that people have lent it to you, you can move faster." Then Ange insulted my sister and told her to live one more day in the world, which was to slap my sister in the face for one day. Before the Yuan Festival, if you haven't done anything, I won't spare you anymore. ”
"Yes......"
Zhang Luo'er thought to herself that she was different and disgusted with An Ge, but she calculated big and small plans, so big as to buy people's teeth to defile her, and as a result, those people's teeth were served in a pot, so small that they scolded her from time to time, and her tongue was so fast, but her mouth was even more powerful......
She was really scared and didn't dare to act rashly anymore.
After Fufeng said this, he left, Zhang Luo'er dared to get up from the ground, breathed a sigh of relief, and said to the two helpers who stayed: "You know where Liufu is located, right?" You go first, find the people of Liufu to find out who the man Liu Pingle admires is. ”
The two men took the order and hurried away.
In the past three days, Ange can't go anywhere, and there are no relatives to pay New Year's greetings, so it's very leisurely, but fortunately, Liu Pingle can still take time to come to see her while visiting the New Year everywhere, and he is accompanied by Jinglan (who he forcibly broke in) at night, but he doesn't feel bored.
On the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, the chicken shop in Nanshan was opened, and An Ge called someone to notify the eight groups of people and told them all to go to the chicken shop.
At first, the eight groups were all maids and wives in the general's mansion, and it was more convenient for them to go out to inquire about the news. Later, Nanshan helped An Ge find some down-to-earth and capable people, and now there are almost fifty people in the eighth group, including men
There are women, and they are all capable of finding out the news.
Under normal circumstances, they would not come to the store together, and on weekdays, they would either serve in the General's Mansion, or they would run all over the capital to inquire about the news. At this time, everyone was standing on the first floor of the store, and they were curious about what An Ge had called them over, and they saw Ning Jiu and Xiao Er in the Nanshan store walking down from the upper floor with a large wooden plate, and the plate was stacked with neat, white and bright silver ingots.
Ning Jiu and the shopkeeper walked up to them and said to everyone with a smile: "You worked hard for the girl last year, this is a little bit of the girl's heart, and I hope you will continue to bother this year." ”
After Ning Jiu finished speaking, he motioned to the aunt who was standing closest to her to take the money, and the aunt took a piece of silver with a happy face, and said gratefully: "Our girl is really beautiful and kind, I can work under the general in my life, and I can do things for the girl, it is really a blessing from my previous life!" ”
Ning Jiu nodded with a smile. For the future general's wife, she admires it more and more.
In fact, An Ge had never treated the people of the eight groups badly before, and he was more active in settling commissions for them than anyone else, and usually when a book was reported, he immediately lent them money, so these people were also loyal to her. She has been behind the "Beijing Daily" for so long, and nothing major has happened.
She treats her subordinates well more than just giving money, she can call the names of each of the eight groups, know the birth date of each of them, know their family background, which ensures that everyone is clean behind their backs, and if anyone has any difficulties in their family, she can immediately send someone to help them. Now these people treat her not only faithfully, but also with gratitude and respect.
Standing next to the woman was a fifteen or sixteen-year-old maid, who took the money and whimpered: "When my father and mother sold me to the General's Mansion, they said that it is not easy for women to make a living these days, especially for poor families like us, and it is worthy of their kindness to raise such a big man to sell it for a good price...... But after I entered the General's Mansion, in addition to the monthly silver given by the general, I could also get all kinds of rewards from the girl, I never thought that I could be so useful since I was a child, and I earned more than my brother and brother! ”
Ning Jiu said with a smile: "Yes, it's not easy for women to make a living these days, but now there are so many newspapers in the capital, even if the "Beijing Daily" is stopped one day, you have the ability, know people, and you can eat anywhere." ”
The maid said with red eyes: "I am willing to follow the girl for the rest of my life." ”
Several people next to him also had red eyes: "So are we!" ”
The smile on the corner of Ning Jiu's mouth became deeper and deeper, and he continued to distribute money to them.
None of them noticed that a tall, thin man stood in front of the store and watched them for a long time.
The shopkeeper followed Ning Jiu to give everyone money, and he didn't notice this person, but Nanshan found out about it, and greeted him and said: "This son has a good New Year, the shop has just opened this year, and the roast chicken is still roasting, and it won't be roasted until after noon, why don't you come back in the afternoon?" ”
The tall and thin man shook his head and said with a smile: "I'm not here to buy chickens, I'm here to find Miss An, is she here today?" ”
Nanshan was stunned, An Ge basically wouldn't reveal to outsiders that he would come here, he didn't know the identity of this person now, and of course he didn't dare to say anything, he only asked, "Who is Childe?" ”
The man smiled lightly: "I'm Mr. Xiguo, if Miss An is here, you can go and spread the word, last time she saved me, I haven't had a chance to thank her." ”
Nanshan was surprised: "You are Mr. Xiguo?" Look up for a long time, look up for a long time! Miss Ann often chatted with others. Wait a minute, I'll pass the word. ”
After Nanshan finished speaking, he pedaled upstairs, and after a while, he came down again, led the way in front, and personally took Mr. Xiguo into the Ya where Ange was at this time
Space.
There were only An Ge and Liu Pingle in the private room, and the two were very surprised to see Mr. Xi Guo, An Ge still remembered that he was almost burned to death last time, and spoke first: "Mr. Xi Guo, are you in good health?" ”
Mr. Xiguo nodded, and said with a bright smile: "Thanks to the two of you who saved me regardless of their lives, I am almost fine." Actually, I should have thanked you earlier, but I was afraid of disturbing your New Year, so I didn't come here until now. ”
After he finished speaking, he took the two boxes from the hands of the little guy behind him, put them on the table in front of An Ge and Liu Pingle respectively, and said with a smile: "Little Bo Li, thank you two girls for saving their lives." I know that the two girls have seen good things, and the things I chose are not very precious, but I have spent a lot of thought, and I hope that the two girls will laugh and accept them. ”
"You're too polite, if you really want to thank us, just finish writing your new script, and An Ge and I are waiting to see it!" Liu Pingle smiled brightly, it was the first time that she had been able to look so carefully at Mr. Xi Guo who had admired him for so many years, originally in her imagination, Mr. Xi Guo should be a weak scholar, small in size, white and clean, but after meeting him, he knew that although he was thin, he did not look weak, and he was very tall and manly, and his eyes revealed the same shrewdness as An Ge.
Also...... A scholar with no family background can become a celebrity chased by countless dignitaries and nobles in the capital just by writing a script, which shows that his strength is naturally extraordinary.
An Ge also followed Liu Pingle and said politely to him: "What happened last time was just a gesture, not to mention that I and Pingle could write a script at the beginning, and it was also because I read too much of Mr. Xiguo's scripts and admired Mr. Xiguo in my heart that I entered this industry." At the end of the day, we should thank you. ”
Mr. Xiguo nodded: "Don't mind if I sit down and say?" ”
"Nature." An Ge brought him a stool and made a pot of good dragon wells for him.
"By the way, my real surname is Wang, my name is Yaoyao, Mr. Xiguo is just my number, the two girls don't need to see each other, just call me by my name." Mr. Xiguo sat down, took a sip of tea, and saw that neither of them had opened the box in front of them, so he pointed again, "Why don't you open it and take a look?" ”
Liu Pingle nodded, and immediately opened the box, inside was a gold-dotted bead Ruyi hairpin, fine workmanship, rich and extraordinary, Liu Pingle smiled: "This hairpin is expensive, and the prince is outbreaking." ”
An Ge also opened her box, which was a white hosta with a transparent color, which was also expensive, but it was obviously much cheaper than Liu Pingle's.
An Ge didn't care about this, but Liu Pingle was suddenly a little embarrassed...... Give the two of them gifts, and ask them to open them in person, if the price is about the same, then there is no say, but if the gap is too big, it will show that the giver has not treated them fairly.
Liu Pingle was thinking about how to resolve the embarrassment, and suddenly heard Wang Yiyao say: "Miss An, I have read your article in the harem newspaper, just like this hairpin, it is transparent and white, so I think it is very suitable for you." ”
An Ge smiled, "Thank you." ”
Liu Pingle breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out that this was the reason, and An Ge obviously didn't care about this, it seemed that she was worried in vain.
The three of them chatted for a while, they were all doing this business, and the conversation was also speculative, and before they knew it, half an hour had passed, until Xing'er came in to inform Liu Pingle to return home, saying that Mrs. Liu's sister was here, and asked Liu Pingle to go back to see the aunt, and Liu Pingle had to go first.
As soon as she left, An Ge couldn't sit down anymore, and was about to open her mouth to talk to Wang Yiyao about another day, but she didn't expect him to speak first: "Miss An, in fact, I came to you this time to discuss something with you." ”
An Ge's eyes moved slightly, and Liu Pingle left before he spoke, it seems that it is not a trivial matter.
