Chapter 188
Since Mrs. Ding wanted to see her so much, she forced Hongxiang to call someone in person, and Liuli felt that she should meet this Mrs. Ding head-on for a while.
followed Hongxiang to Ding's mansion, as soon as she entered the house, before she sat down, Mrs. Ding sent Hongxiang down: "I just ordered the people on the stove to make a white fungus snow clam soup and send it to your small courtyard, you go and taste it, I'll talk to Liuli." ”
How could Hongxiang not understand Mrs. Ding's intentions, she glanced at Liuli, who replied to her with a look of reassurance, Hongxiang gave a salute: "Mrs. Xie, Hongxiang retires." ”
It wasn't until the person went out that Mrs. Ding turned to Liuli, with a smile on her face: "Erniang hasn't been here for a long time, shouldn't it be because I didn't take care of Hongxiang?" ”
Liuli didn't smile, she didn't want to waste time going around with Mrs. Ding anymore, so she simply said, "If Mrs. has anything to say, just say it." ”
Mrs. Ding's eyes were cold, she endured it, and said softly: "What Erniang said ...... said"
Just didn't wait for her to finish, Liuli said again: "Why don't you have the child in Hongxiang's belly, you and I both know that Mrs. Ding really doesn't have to act in front of me anymore, lest you be tired of acting, and I look awkward." ”
"You ......" Mrs. Ding had never been scolded so bluntly, her face turned red and white, and finally snorted coldly: "You dare to say it." ”
"Huh." Ruri sneered.
"Okay, then I'll ask you." Mrs. Ding adjusted her emotions so that she would not lose her bearing, "Mother Liu's accident, as well as the second aunt and Lai's mother before, are they all related to you?" ”
"So what? Isn't it? "Liuli won't admit it head-on.
"Looks like it really has something to do with you?" Although Mrs. Ding had a guess, she didn't believe it in her heart, "You are a country girl, how can you do this?" ”
"I'm a country girl, and now I can sit and drink tea with my wife, didn't my wife think of it?" Liuli Road.
Mrs. Ding: ......
Seeing that the other party was speechless, Liuli felt happy, she appreciated enough, and finally said: "But these people have an accident, and I really didn't do it." "It was my boyfriend who did it," Liuli added in her heart, and continued: "They do it themselves, and they bear the consequences." ”
"Not you?" Mrs. Ding was suspicious, "Then how could they be so coincidental that they all had accidents one after another after Hongxiang's accident?" ”
"Haven't you heard, Madame? The wicked have their own harvest. Liuli said meaningfully, "If you do too many bad things, there will always be a day when you will be punished by God, and Mrs. should be careful." ”
Mrs. Ding's heart was stabbed again, and she said coldly: "I have always known that you have a sharp mouth, and I have seen it today, but I am just quick to speak for a while, and I am afraid that you will regret it in the future." ”
"Oh?"
"Don't forget, your good sister, Hongxiang is still in my hands, as long as she is in the Ding Mansion for a day, she will be at my disposal." Mrs. Ding finally found her way back and smiled heartily.
Clinker Liuli also did not show weakness, she cared about Hongxiang, but it does not mean that she could be threatened: "Madame, don't forget, the lifeblood of Rouge Pavilion is in my hands, if one day I find that Hongxiang has hurt a little in Dingfu, the next day, lipstick will appear in Xingping and even in Beijing's large and small shops." ”
"You threaten me?" Mrs. Ding's tone was cold.
"Madame, you threaten me first." Liuli also showed no weakness.
The atmosphere froze a little for a while, and neither of them spoke again, just confronting each other coldly.
After a long time, it was finally Mrs. Ding who broke the silence first, she chuckled, and returned to her usual kind appearance: "In this way, why don't we make a deal, you tell me the lipstick and the new food recipe of Song Kee Restaurant, I will keep Hongxiang worry-free, how about it?" ”
"Snort~" Liuli couldn't hold back and laughed out loud, "Mrs. Ding really thinks I'm stupid?" Not to mention the value of my lipstick and food recipes, can you keep Hongxiang worry-free for a lifetime? What guarantees do you take? Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if you can really do it, isn't that red incense still in your hands? ”
And Liuli feels that a person's life is lived by himself, not who can guarantee it, nor is it something that can be exchanged.
Of course, Mrs. Ding knew that Liuli was not stupid, and she was very proficient, and she didn't care about being angry at Liuli's prickly words at this time: "Then tell me, how can you be willing to hand over the prescription." ”
Liuli laughed in her heart, I don't know if this Mrs. Ding treats everyone as a fool, and she is the only one in the world.
If you don't count the foot shop, lipstick and Song Kee restaurant are all the sources of income for Liuli, it can be said that this recipe is the foundation of her life, why does Mrs. Ding think she will be willing to exchange for what conditions?
Liuli thought for a moment and said, "Mrs. Ding really wants the secret recipe for these things?" ”
"Nature." Mrs. Ding nodded, "These things are in your hands, but they are just a small fight, but if they are given to our Ding family, they can give full play to the maximum value, just look at the recipe of the fruit dan peel and cake, if you want to take a cut of these two things, it is not impossible." ”
Because she still has the face to mention the fruit dan peel and cake, Liuli sneered in her heart, but her face was indifferent: "If I am asked to hand it over, it is not impossible, but I have to exchange half of the family property of this Ding Mansion, Mrs. Ding may be the master?" ”
"You ......" Mrs. Ding was angry, she couldn't maintain the calm on her face anymore, and said viciously: "You are a lion with a big mouth, with your ideas and things, do you know how big my Ding Mansion is?" ”
Liuli smiled and shook her head: "I don't know how big the family business is in Ding's house, but lipstick and new food are all my belongings for me, and I still suffer a loss if I let Mrs. Ding exchange half of my belongings." ”
Speaking of this, Mrs. Ding also knew what Liuli meant, that is, she refused to hand it over.
"Since you don't know what to do, I want to see how far you can go!" Mrs. Ding finally said viciously, and then issued an eviction order.
This time, Liuli and Mrs. Ding completely tore their faces, but neither side dared to do anything to each other.
In the end, Liuli also cares about the red incense, so the lipstick is still offered to the Rouge Pavilion, and Mrs. Ding's side, because of the business of the Rouge Pavilion and Ding Kee Restaurant, she doesn't dare to really take the red incense, so the two are so deadlocked, holding each other's handles.
But in this way, it is not so easy for Liuli to see Hongxiang again, Mrs. Xu Ding specially explained, Hongxiang can't get out, and it is difficult for Liuli to enter Ding's Mansion, and her plan to persuade Hongxiang to leave Ding's Mansion can't be implemented.
Zhao Zhai, Zhao Mingxu has been in intermittent correspondence with Huamei for half a year, and he just wrote a letter on this day, and he heard a report from outside, saying that Liuli was coming, Zhao Mingxu was overjoyed, and he was just about to order someone to come in, and he heard a report that Liuli had been pulled by Dr. Luo to him.
Zhao Mingxu was angry and put down his pen with a snap.
Is this old man Luo guarding the gate every day? Why did Liuli come and immediately pull it away, Zhao Mingxu couldn't bear it anymore, and walked out of the study violently, ready to kill Doctor Luo.
As soon as I got out of the room, I ran into Yi Cui coming back with tea: "Is Childe going out?" ”
Zhao Mingxu casually said "um" and left, leaving Yicui with tea and not knowing what to do.
Ah Ce deeply understood his son-in-law, and ordered: "Go down." He also followed, and said in his heart that if the son couldn't help but do it, he could still protect Dr. Luo's life.
Yi Cui looked at the departing figure of the master and servant, thinking of the report he had just heard from afar, he secretly gritted his teeth, and for the sake of the little hoof, what did he say that he had no distractions about the son, and now he didn't hook people into his hands?
How many times, Yi Cui saw Zhao Mingxu and Liuli together, so he couldn't wait to dismantle the latter.
She was angry and prepared to go back with the tea, but she glanced out of the corner of her eye, but saw the hidden door.
The ghost sent the gods, Yi Cui pushed open the door, and went in with the tea.
She was born in a family, and she didn't have the opportunity to study, but because she admired Zhao Mingxu in her heart, she secretly learned some by herself, so she could know a few words, but not much.
But just right, she recognized the word "charming".
It was a letter that had not yet had time to be put up, and there were some words in it that Yi Cui recognized, and it could be roughly seen that this was an intimate letter to his lover.
Yi Cui suddenly thought that during this time, Gongzi often sent letters to Beijing, and once she was idle and asked, but she didn't expect the guard who sent the letter to answer, saying that Gongzi wrote it to the beauty in Beijing.
She knew that during the New Year's Festival last year, the emperor rewarded the son with three beauties, and one of them seemed to be called something charming.
Now seeing this letter, Yi Cui suddenly understands everything.
Then there was a sadness, she thought that her appearance was not inferior, and she had served her son for so many years, why did her son have no meaning to herself, but the beauty that the emperor rewarded at will could make her miss him like this, and it had been more than half a year, and the two still maintained correspondence.
And the country girl Song Liuli, which point is better than herself? Why can you get the favor of your son?
However, I thought that Childe was fascinated by that girl, but now that I look at it, it's not necessarily the case.
Yi Cui stared at the letter for a while, and secretly made up her mind in her heart, Song Liuli can, no, this person called Huamei can, but he can't.
She didn't touch the letter, but went out again with the teacup, and closed the door of the study as it was.
On the other side, Zhao Mingxu used both grace and power to finally snatch Liuli back from Doctor Luo.
"It's good that you're here, otherwise I would have been dragged by Dr. Luo to ask questions, but it would be hard for me to die." Ruri breathed a long sigh of relief.
"I see, don't you like to talk to him?" Zhao Mingxu said this, and he was actually quite happy in his heart.
"Who said that?" Liuli exaggerated and shouted, "The little ink in my stomach has already been removed by Dr. Luo, and besides, I obviously came to see you, and I love to talk to you the most." ”
In broad daylight, Liuli talked about love, and Rao is Zhao Mingxu was a little overwhelmed.
"Ahem." Ace coughed loudly twice to show his presence.
"Didn't you already clamoring to eat lotus seeds? Two days ago, I saw that there were budding lotus pods in the pond, let's go to the backyard to have a look? Zhao Mingxu said.
"At this time, the lotus canopy has just grown, I'm afraid it's ......" Ace didn't finish speaking, and listened to Liuli happily echo: "Okay, okay." Immediately, he staggered to the backyard with Zhao Mingxu.
Ace: "...... I'm afraid it's unfamiliar. ”
The lotus seeds are naturally not ripe, and the two picked a few, and then they stopped picking them, but they still did not leave the backyard, just killing time with their ears and temples.
Liuli has been busy for half a year, and finally can take a break, and now Song Ji Restaurant is on the right track, with Zhou's shopkeeper here, everything does not need to worry about Liuli, and the eldest girl can also take on all the matters of the flower banquet alone, Liuli handed it over to them with confidence, only to ask Coral to stare occasionally.
Although Xiaocao has her own home, she still goes back to the courtyard of the Song family through the small door at night to live together, and she is still making lipstick during the day.
In addition to teaching them literacy, they will also teach some female celebrities and other miscellaneous arts, such as playing the piano and blowing the flute, etc., Xiaocao and Coral will not be bored when they don't have classes anyway.
Everything is in order at home, only the red incense, so that Liuli can not rest assured.
"When is that thing going to happen? Now it's hard for me to even see Hongxiang, and I don't know how to persuade her. As soon as this matter was mentioned, Liuli was both worried and anxious.
"It won't be long." Zhao Mingxu said, "Once the trouble occurs, the Ding Mansion will be charged with raiding the house, if she wants to be alone, she must leave the Ding Mansion as soon as possible." ”
"Hey," Liuli sighed and complained casually, "Ancient women are really difficult. ”
"Ancient?" Zhao Mingxu raised his eyebrows.
Liuli immediately realized that she had said the wrong thing, but she had already admitted that she had a secret, so the shameless Hehe laughed twice and slurred.
Turned back to the original topic: "It's really not good, when the time comes, ask Ace to steal people out quietly?" ”
If there is any movement in Beijing, he should be able to get the news in advance, Zhao Mingxu thought about it, if Liuli insisted on saving it, this method was not impossible: "It's just that she will live incognito for the rest of her life." ”
"It's better than being implicated." Liuli Road.
The two spent an afternoon in the backyard, and in the evening, Liuli finally reluctantly left.
Zhao Mingxu had dinner in the backyard before going back, and then went to the study to deal with some affairs, until three o'clock, he returned to the room, ready to rest.
It's just that as soon as I entered the door, I felt that there was something wrong with the breath in the room.
- One more person.
Looking at the bed tent again, it was put down, and a human figure was faintly visible inside.
Zhao Mingxu instantly understood what was going on, and said in a cold voice: "Come out." ”
The person on the bed did not move, and Yi Cui clenched his palms, wanting to gamble.
Zhao Mingxu stopped talking nonsense, and directly ordered the outside: "Come here." ”
The guards entered in response, only to hear Zhao Mingxu say coldly: "Drag the people on the bed out and sell them, and the guards guarding the door today will each receive twenty boards." ”
The guard was shocked, but he didn't dare to delay the slightest, and answered "yes" in a deep voice and went straight to the bed.
Yi Cui finally couldn't lie down anymore, and crawled out of bed: "Childe, Childe is me, please ask Childe to be gracious." ”
