Chapter 270: Disqualification from the Competition
Seeing that the other party was so cooperative, Lu Li couldn't help laughing, he reached out and rubbed the top of the other party's head, "Of course it's fake." ”
His identity as a prince of the country is better in Donglan Kingdom, but in the face of the people of Canglan Country, the other party only respects himself, but he is not afraid, so how can he change his mind because of him?
"Today I did go to the post house where the envoy lived." Lu Li put away the parchment map on the table and said slowly: "Maybe you didn't notice it, but the people of Canglan have been tracking and investigating you for the past few days, and I went to the post house this time for this matter." ”
"Stalking me?" Xiao Man was even more surprised when he heard this.
Although the battle between her and the mansion is not so big, and she only carries pearls or jadeites on weekdays, she knows in her heart that Lu Li has never been worried about herself, so she will always send two or three small servants with good martial arts to follow her, but in order not to cause any sensation, so these people are only in the dark on weekdays.
Now, even they who are hiding in the shadows have not noticed that someone is following them, so you can imagine how strong the martial arts of the person who is following them must be.
At the thought of this, Xiao Man shuddered, and his hairs stood on end.
"Don't worry, I'm going to the inn today for this. Fortunately, the envoy and the others had no ill intentions and had already withdrawn them. Lu Li put his hand on the other party's shoulder and gently kneaded it twice to show comfort.
"But why are they stalking me?" Xiao Man was very puzzled by this.
Before the Canglan people entered Beijing, she had never heard of such a country, not to mention, after these people entered Beijing, she had never even met with them, how did they know about themselves? And he has no ill will towards them, how can he send someone to follow and investigate him for no reason?
Many doubts lingered in Xiao Man's heart, and she couldn't help but twist her beautiful eyebrows.
Looking at the woman's puzzled look, Lu Li curled the corners of his lips, "Probably to see if you meet their cooperation standards, Jiang Qiming recommended you to them, and for the sake of insurance, they came to investigate you." But, Xiaoman, don't worry, they have absolutely no malicious intentions, and I have specially observed that all the people who followed you before have disappeared. ”
"Okay." For this explanation, Xiaoman had to reluctantly agree.
After all, the customs of Donglan and Canglan are different, and it is normal for me to not be able to figure out their operation.
However, thinking of what Lu Li had just said, she immediately became excited again, casually pulled back the map in Lu Li's hand, unfolded it and continued to look at the calculation, and asked with a little expectation and excitement: "Lu Li, do you say they are really willing to cooperate with me?" Can I do something like this? ”
After all, this is not a child's house, although he has been doing business in Beijing for several years, but the situation in Canglan and Beijing is different after all, the things in his store went to Canglan country, will the people of Canglan like it?
"Don't worry, since they can choose you, it means that you have your own merits and can definitely do a good job." Lu Li's original intention was to comfort the other party, so that she could be happy and no longer think about the troubles of the game, but now it seems that it is a bit counterproductive.
He had to comfort Xiaoman so that she wouldn't be distracted in the subsequent matches.
As for the envoy of Canglan, he went with Wei Xiuyuan today, which was not condescending, but it was enough to surprise the envoy, not to mention that he also specially brought the clothes of the Manrou Garment Workshop, after this persuasion and warning, the other party would definitely choose the Manrou Garment Workshop to cooperate.
Not to mention that during the days when they were tracking and investigating Xiaoman, they would definitely get more information, which was enough for them to let down their guards and worries and concentrate on cooperating with Xiaoman. Coupled with Jiang Qiming's recommendation, Lu Li was confident enough that the envoys and the caravan would definitely choose the Manrou Garment Workshop.
Although the results are not yet out.
comforted Xiao Man Yitong in the study, and the next person came to remind him that it was lunch time, and the two went to the dining room hand in hand. Xu is comfort, perhaps because he learned that Canglan Country was going to choose himself to cooperate, Xiaoman's interest was always much higher.
As they had expected, Xiao Man and Qin Chun successfully passed the first two rounds and were promoted to the final competition.
In the last game, there were more than half of the people who went to Jiangfu in the morning to wait in line to enter the stadium, but some shocked Xiaoman, and the woman in red before also came to this game smoothly.
"Shopkeeper, look-" Qin Chun pointed to the woman in red and whispered in Xiao Man's ear, "It's really strange that she actually made it to the last game." ”
was originally such a flamboyant and domineering person, Xiao Manxin thought that the other party was just an embroidered pillow, but he didn't want her to really have a few brushes.
It's a pity that in order not to expose her body, and to take care of Qin Chun, she leaves immediately after the game every time, and doesn't stay in the courtyard for a quarter of an hour at all, and it is precisely because of this that she has never seen the embroidery of the woman in red at all.
It seems that he underestimated the strength of the other party.
Xiao Man frowned, and looked back at Qin Chun, "Don't worry, I know your embroidery skills, if you don't make a mistake, you will definitely get good results." Relax, don't let others influence you. ”
"I know!" Qin Chun also looked at her, his eyes were firm: "I couldn't go to the end a few years ago, this time I must make up for the regrets of the year." Even if you can't get the top spot, you will never let the shopkeeper be disappointed, let alone let your efforts go to waste! ”
In the past few days, Qin Chun has successfully passed the competition every time, perhaps for this reason, she is much more confident now than when she participated in the competition just now.
Xiao Man nodded with satisfaction, "That's fine." ”
As they spoke, the number of people in the team gradually decreased, and in a blink of an eye, the two of them reported their names, and then took out their respective wooden cards to match their identities, and then followed the leadership of the housekeeper of Jiangfu and entered the mansion.
"Today is the last and most important game of the tournament!" The butler stood in front of everyone, stood with his hands in his hands, and said solemnly: "In this competition, the last ten embroiderers will be selected from the twenty people you are present. If there are any of these ten embroiderers who do not want to enter Jiangfu, they will be discussed separately. ”
"The selected embroidery girls can freely choose to enter the Jiang Mansion and wait for the distribution. In addition, the top of the competition can get ten taels of gold, the second place can get five taels of gold, and the third place will get two taels of gold. ”
As soon as this remark came out, the embroidery girls at the bottom couldn't hold it back, and discussed it hand to ear.
You know, these embroidery girls, even if they become the top one in a certain store, they won't have so much silver in a year's monthly money, and now they only need to participate in a competition and get the top position, they can get ten taels of gold!
Not to mention that you can also enter the rich and powerful Jiangfu to be an embroiderer, everyone can't ask for it!
Qin Chun also quietly talked to Xiao Man on the side, "Jiang Mansion is really generous, and he actually threw out so much money at once." ”
Xiao Man smiled, and was about to speak, but he didn't want a light and disdainful female voice to interject next to him: "What a country woman who has never seen the world!" Ten taels of gold is considered a big deal, it's really a little family! ”
The two turned around one after another, and unsurprisingly, it was the woman in red who made the sarcastic remarks again.
She is still dressed in red today, and she is still red, even the headdress is decorated with red coral, and the earrings are also rubies, judging from the little tips exposed under the red skirt, these shoes are also real red embroidered shoes.
Not surprisingly, this satin dress embroidered with dark red patterns on a red background is still made by the Manrou Ready-to-Wear Workshop.
One thing that Xiao Man has never been able to understand in the past few days is that since this person likes to wear the clothes of the Rou Ready-to-wear Workshop so much, and he is his absolute supporter, why doesn't he know Qin Chun?
I don't go to the store often, and it doesn't matter if the other party doesn't know me, but Qin Chun, who is busy in the store every day, doesn't she feel half familiar? Or is the shop she frequents the one on Chengdong Street instead of Willow Leaf Street?
Just thinking about it, Xiao Man forgot to reply to the other party, so that the woman in red sneered again: "I didn't think about it, the countryman with sharp teeth and sharp mouth in the past, now I was poked by the pain, and I didn't dare to speak!" It's funny! ”
As if to prove that what she said was indeed funny, the woman in red covered her lips and chuckled lightly, the laughter was sharp and piercing, causing the people around her who were listening attentively to the butler's words to turn sideways in displeasure.
It's just that because of this person's gorgeous dress, others don't dare to speak out, and at most complain a few words in private.
Others can endure it and dare not provoke, but Xiaoman is not afraid, so she learned the tone of the other party and was sarcastic: "Some people feel that they are superior when they wear a satin dress, but they don't know that people like her, in the eyes of real rich people, look just a clown jumping off the beam." ”
As soon as the words fell, the woman in red rushed over and roared angrily: "Who do you say is the clown who jumps off the beam?!" ”
"What are you doing?!" Before Xiaoman could speak, the butler on the stage rebuked with a dark face and displeasure.
But the woman in red was angry, how could she endure the reprimand of the people in the Jiang Mansion, so she immediately turned around, pointed at the other party's nose and scolded: "What kind of thing are you, and you dare to teach Aunt Ben a lesson?" I'm telling you, here, it's not your turn to speak as a minion! ”
Because of Jiang Qiming's identity and status, Jiang Mansion is a very special existence in Shangjing, and the subordinates of Jiang Mansion are not comparable to the servants of the elder family, not to mention that the housekeeper in front of him is the housekeeper of the huge Jiang Mansion, how can he allow the woman in red to accuse him recklessly.
Therefore, Wu Xing, the already angry housekeeper, didn't pay attention to the woman in red, and directly drank the little guys on both sides and ordered: "Pull this person out!" Disqualification! Inform all the shops in Jiangfu that they are not allowed to appoint this person again! ”
If it was an ordinary embroidery girl, she would have been frightened by this battle, but the woman in red scolded unceremoniously: "If you dare to do this!" Then you don't want to stay in Jiangfu! ”
