Chapter 48: The Emperor Will Bite When He is in a Hurry

After the end of the costume show, the girls of Piaoxiang Courtyard took off their clothes, and asked Su Ruanmei for advice on the skills of painting makeup, Su Ruanmei was in a hurry, so she casually taught them a few tricks, and she didn't want these girls to be very happy, and when dusk, the girls of Piaoxiangyuan went back one after another, and Su Ruanmei and her party also returned to Wan'an Hotel.

Su Ruanmei asked the shopkeeper to simply serve a few small dishes and a drawer of steamed buns to everyone, and before the food was served, Qin Hu and the porters snatched the food from the shopkeeper's palm and devoured it, while the little emperor and Fang Chuchu sat on the table on the other side, quietly watching these people eat like starving ghosts.

"Shopkeeper, is there anything else you can do?"

Su Ruanmei held a white-flour steamed bun in one hand and millet porridge in the other, and she asked with some curiosity to the shopkeeper beside her.

The shopkeeper nodded slightly after listening to Su Ruanmei's question.

"Miss Su, you see that so many of you have lived in my Wan'an Hotel for three or four days, and we are also entertaining you with delicious food and drink, see if you can settle the room and meal money."

When the shopkeeper said this, Su Ruanmei was almost choked by the steamed buns, she put down the steamed buns and millet porridge in her hand, and then patted her chest again, and when she was relieved, she smiled at the shopkeeper slightly.

"Shopkeeper, didn't we pay before?"

After Su Ruanmei finished speaking, the shopkeeper was a little embarrassed.

"Miss Su, we are a small business, the little money you gave before is only enough for you to live for two days, if you have few people, I don't bother to mention it to you for a few days, but ......."

Before the shopkeeper finished speaking, Su Ruanmei stood up and patted the shopkeeper's shoulder, and said to him very seriously.

"Shopkeeper, I know you also have your difficulties, as the so-called opening the door to do business, the picture is a wide source of wealth, you go and calculate, our house money and food money in the past few days, I will pay you in a while."

When Su Ruanmei said this, Qin Hu stood up, in fact, Qin Hu wanted to say that now that we are penniless, how can we have money to settle the account for the boss, and Su Ruanmei looked at Qin Hu and made a gesture to stop.

The shopkeeper was also straightforward, and he took out a small abacus directly from his sleeve, and after a while of his fiddling, the shopkeeper said with a smile to Susu Soft Girl.

"Forget the odds, Miss Su, the cost of your food and accommodation here these days is a total of 6 taels of silver."

After the shopkeeper finished speaking, Su Ruanmei pointed to the shopkeeper's abacus and smiled with some ill intentions.

"The shopkeeper is really good at settling accounts, obviously it's 4 taels and 5 dollars of silver, but you just gave us an extra 125, and said that you gave us a penny."

After Su Ruanmei finished speaking, the shopkeeper was immediately dumbfounded.

The shopkeeper was about to open his mouth to explain, but Su Ruanmei pressed the shopkeeper's abacus with her hand and smiled heartily at him.

"It's okay, it's okay, that one or two more should be regarded as the hard work of your account to entertain a large group of us, how can this girl be the kind of person with a small belly."

The shopkeeper listened to Su Ruanmei's words and nodded his head in thanks, just when the shopkeeper stood upright and was about to collect money from Su Ruanmei. Su Ruanmei put her hand on the shopkeeper's shoulder and said with a little embarrassment.

"Look, shopkeeper, our clothes were only taken out this afternoon to be promoted, and there was an auction in the evening, so I wanted to borrow your hall, don't talk nonsense, I'll give you 50 taels of silver, what do you think."

When the shopkeeper heard this, a happy smile appeared on his face, but after laughing, the shopkeeper still felt that he should pay a fixed amount of money in cash, which was more reasonable for both parties.

Su Ruanmei saw that the white wolf with empty gloves was obviously not good, so she started the idea of the little emperor Yu Pei.

Su Ruanmei touched the jade pendant on her waist with her hand, and then took it off and put it in the hands of the shopkeeper.

"This is my family heirloom, it's better to mortgage it to the shopkeeper first, and after the clothes are sold, I will redeem it, what do you think of the shopkeeper."

The shopkeeper took the jade pendant and weighed it, and sure enough, it was a superb jade, thinking that such a good thing would be worth hundreds of years, so the shopkeeper nodded and agreed to Su Ruanmei's suggestion.

After Su Ruanmei left, the little emperor came over angrily.

"Demon girl, where did you get the jade pendant I gave you?"

Regarding the little emperor's questioning, although Su Ruanmei knew that she was at a loss, she was also helpless.

"Don't make any noise, I'll get you back when the clothes are sold at night, just as a temporary mortgage."

After Su Ruanmei finished speaking, the little emperor still refused to give up.

"No, you have to get it back for me right away, or I'll go to the government to sue you for theft."

The little emperor was very excited after speaking, but Su Ruanmei was even more excited.

"Why are you so disobedient, Fang Chuchu, quickly drag this kid to the guest room for me."

After Su Ruanmei finished speaking, Fang Chuchu stood aside, lowering her head and not daring to respond.

Qin Hu wanted to come up and persuade him, but he was given a blank look by the little emperor, and Qin Hu also stood in place and bowed his head.

"I order you to go and get it back for me!"

After the little emperor finished speaking, Su Ruanmei was still standing there indifferent.

The little emperor saw that everyone ignored him, so he thought about going to the shopkeeper to ask for the jade pendant back, but he didn't want Su Ruanmei to stretch out her hand and stop the little emperor.

The little emperor saw that Su Ruanmei was tall and had big arms, he couldn't get over it at all, and in a fit of anger, he bit Su Ruanmei's wrist, Su Ruanmei was bitten by the little emperor like this, and it was also heartbreaking, she directly backhanded a slap and slapped the little emperor to the ground.

Fang Chuchu saw that the little emperor was fanned down, so he immediately ran over and helped the little emperor up, and at this time, a group of people gathered in the hall.

Su Ruanmei hurriedly covered her bloody wrist with her sleeve, and then turned her back and was so angry that she didn't speak.

The little emperor was beaten by Su Ruanmei, and he stared at Su Ruanmei with his hot face.

"Demon girl, you have really changed, I hate you."

After the little emperor finished speaking, he pushed Fang Chuchu away, and then walked up the stairs.

Qin Hu wanted to step forward to see Su Ruanmei's hand, but was also stopped by Su Ruanmei.

Su Ruanmei asked the shopkeeper for some coarse cloth and salt water, and sat at the dining table with her wrists wrapped, while Qin Hu and the porters were busy renovating the lobby of the hotel.

After the lobby was arranged, it was already the first shift time, and the shopkeeper also dozed off on the counter.

Su Ruanmei and Qin Hu sat at the empty table in front of the lobby, silent to each other.

Su Ruanmei supported her chin with her other hand, thinking to herself that it was not just a broken jade pendant, how could it be so important, and it was not for him to sell it, he was in such a hurry, and he bit himself so hard.
