Chapter 20: The First Honored Guest

The first distinguished guest was ushered in here, Mrs. Chen of the Chen family. A purple old-style cheongsam is dignified and elegant, her hair is pulled up with an inconspicuous hosta, and the emerald gems on her neck are transparent and bright, which is priceless at a glance.

An Lingyu put down the teacup in her hand, pushed the macarons on the table to Mrs. Chen, and said softly: "This is an afternoon pastry from the cake shop in the French Concession, it is said to be accompanied by afternoon tea, can you taste it?" ”

Mrs. Chen nodded, picked up a small bite, and took a bite. It seemed too sweet, so I put it down again. "What do you think of what Mrs. Chen means, Miss Red Tears? But willing? ”

"This good deed is naturally willing, but I don't have any personal guards, and Cheng Sanshao only has some nursing homes left, not as many as your Chen family's nursing homes. But if you're looking to hand out clothes or something, I have a tailor shop to recommend. ”

An Lingyu was dressed in a pink new-style cheongsam, which vividly outlined her bumpy figure, and the necklace with tortoiseshell inlaid agate inlaid with southern pearls given by Mrs. Chen that day was worn.

When Mrs. Chen heard the first half of the sentence, she thought that Miss An Lingyujiao had a temper attack, and refused to cooperate with them, but just shirked it. When I heard the second half of the sentence, I showed a good face.

"Oh? Who do you recommend? It's nothing if there are no guards, our Chen family still has a bit of a family background. ”

An Lingyu didn't sell anything, and directly said the name of the store. "In the Xu tailor shop on the road of St. Mary, there are not too many embroidery girls in the shop, but the craftsmanship is very exquisite, looking at her appearance, she should have been an embroiderer for decades, and it is right to hand over the clothes to her."

Mrs. Chen nodded: "I have also heard of Xu's tailor shop, and her family's embroiderers were among the best in the old days. It's just that now I started to make a new cheongsam, and I didn't go anymore. ”

An Lingyu silently wrote it down when she heard it, and when she turned around, she would tell Xu Niang to make more old-fashioned gowns, and the elderly wives still like the old style.

"It's just that this Xu family is just an embroiderer after all, and they don't need to embroider the clothes for the refugees." Mrs. Chen didn't understand a little, so she asked again.

An Lingyu was not annoyed that Mrs. Chen refuted her words, and explained with a smile: "It's true that she is an embroiderer, but her family is in the tailor business." You have also heard about the matter of settling down before, that is, it was entrusted to an unreliable person, and when you do such things, your reputation has been ruined a lot. ”

Mrs. Chen understood now, Miss Red Tears was looking for a reliable person for her, and Xu also made clothes, so she sighed: "This is the best, if there is really such a reliable thing that Miss Red Tears said, it would be the most relaxed." ”

"Then I will say it, tomorrow I will ask the driver to pick you up and go to the east of the city to give soup porridge noodles, forget about the west of the city, the refugees are afraid that they are already very disgusted."

An Lingyu also smiled and nodded, and secretly sighed in her heart that this Mrs. Chen was as transparent as the emerald gem she wore around her neck. Her current identity and An Jiading are incompatible, when they meet together, she will definitely suffer on the surface, and the Chen family has not reaped the benefits from her now, so she refuses to face the An family directly.

What about life-saving grace? It's not that it's not dead yet. Hooking her lips and smiling at the merchant's philistine, An Lingyu went upstairs to read the newspaper.

There were no instructions, and when the list was sent, her father-in-law did not reply to her. Cheng Lifeng, who asked for that list...... I haven't seen him for a while, so I guess I'm busy with the Yangtze River.

Thinking like this, An Lingyu fell asleep in a chaotic manner. Su Lie came up to report about An's family, knocked on the door and ignored him, so he walked in boldly.

Xiao Tao and Su Yu didn't know what to do, and they could only hear their own breathing for a while. Su Lie swallowed his saliva and saw An Lingyu sitting at the desk and falling asleep.

Carefully covered her with a blanket, but An Lingyu woke up with a "poof", staring at Su Lie like a poisonous snake in the desert, and was about to greet him on the neck in the next second.

Dingqing saw that it was Su Lie. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief, pinched his eyebrows, and said a little angrily: "Why did you come here?" ”

Su Lie was still silent and didn't react in her fierce and threatening eyes just now, until An Lingyu spoke up, he stumbled and said, "Ah? I think it's too late to report back to you on what you're going to investigate. I knocked on the door, and without replying, you came in. ”

As he spoke, his voice became quieter and quieter, after all, this was the boudoir of the master's house, and no one came uninvited like him. An Lingyu took out the paper from his hand and looked at it carefully.

Sneered, and sure enough, it was as she thought. Anqing didn't know what to say to Zhao Yun when he got home, so he took an old mother to Cheng's house, and after coming out of Cheng's house, Cheng Dashuai asked people to catch Accountant Zhou, and then issued a statement that it was Liu's mother and Accountant Zhou.

In order to compensate, the settlement association increased everything that was given to the refugees, which calmed the anger. But the Cheng family still doesn't have a good reputation, and there is even an author who says that Cheng Dashuai can't know people clearly, and he really has developed limbs and a simple mind.

An Lingyu hooked her lips and smiled, the author's words were sharp, and she scolded people without any dirty words, and threw them aside. She knew that she couldn't shake the status of the An family with such a trivial matter, but it was not bad to slowly wear out Zhao Yun's status in An Taisheng's heart.

Then he turned to Su Lie in a very good mood and said, "Thank you for your hard work!" Thank you for everything, I will reimburse you for the cost of food and accommodation these days. As she spoke, she opened the drawer, there were still a lot of bits and pieces in the drawer, she rummaged through the drawers, took out five pieces of ocean and handed them to Su Lie.

"It's not easy for you to take the extra to drink tea, and it's not easy to ask for information."

Su Lie shook his head and retreated, "This is what I should do." ”

"Take it." Forcibly stuffed to Su Lie, An Lingyu lowered her eyes and pondered for a while, and then took out a pen and paper to write and draw, she wanted to establish a small intelligence network, the first step was in Haicheng, and then slowly expanded to all the cities in the south, and then the entire country.

Seeing that An Lingyu didn't say anything to let him go, Su Lie stood quietly to the side and looked at her. An Lingyu under the light is very beautiful, like a piece of beautiful jade that penetrates people's hearts. The white and flawless skin is set off by the pink silk pajamas, and the blood vessels beneath can be seen.

An Lingyu finally finished writing, and the moon quietly climbed up to the clouds.
