Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Old Lady of the Prince's Mansion
The corners of Li Qingqing's eyes were slightly curved, and his shrewd eyes saw through his emotions that he had time to hide in the future, and then said intimately, "If Mr. is in a bad mood, you don't have to smile all day long."
This king is not recruiting Mr. to make jokes, why bother. β
Gongsun Fu smiled, and at the same time his heart warmed, "Thank you Your Highness for your understanding!" β
Li Qingqing nodded, and immediately thought of something, his eyes were full of brilliance, and there was a thick smile on his face, and Gongsun Fu looked up like a touch of brilliance floating in front of him.
He looked stunned.
But Li Qingqing had already walked in front of him and stood at the door of the front hall, right with his back to him.
"Would you like to come with me?"
Gongsun Fu was stunned for a moment, and didn't understand what this excitement meant, but then he thought about it and probably guessed it, and his eyes also flowed with brilliance, and he nodded with a smile.
Then the two went to the Dingguo Mansion.
The Dingguo Mansion is building the courtyard wall at the moment, because yesterday she sued the emperor, the empress is not good not to do anything, and now sent the master craftsman Dai Weichang to build, which is considered to give Dingguo a great face, and the female Dingguo Gong is embarrassed to go to the palace to make noise again.
Up and down the Dingguo Mansion, they are cooperating with the master craftsmen to clean up the waste bricks, dig the wall foundation, and stack new bricks.
When Li Qingqing passed, the subordinates of the Dingguo Mansion were busy in an orderly manner.
She saw a family holding a dustpan of waste bricks and was about to throw them out, Li Qingqing hooked the corners of her mouth, and deliberately shouted, "Stop!" β
The housekeeper shook his hands and held the dustpan steady.
"Your Highness!" The family bowed and saluted.
The others also turned their heads when they heard the sound, and their eyes were all focused on Li Qingqing.
Li Qingqing met the many eyes, smiled slyly, and ran towards the eighty-year-old female prince with clear steps.
The corners of the old lady's mouth twitched, and she had to put on a warm welcome face for a while in her heart, "Your Highness, why are you here?" β
"It's a good thing I'm here, otherwise, that ignorant subordinate in your house would almost get into trouble!"
The man holding the waste brick had a suspicious expression on his face, what's wrong, can I still cause trouble by throwing a brick?
Others also had self-doubting faces.
Li Qingqing smiled proudly, "Yesterday, my grandmother said that this wall was built by my grandfather and you back then, and it was my grandfather's hard work, and even after my grandfather went, it was my grandfather."
In this case, how can there be a reason for my grandfather to sweep the floor out, naturally it is necessary to serve and settle at home! β
After Li Qingqing finished speaking, the big and small sons and daughters of the Guogong Mansion were pale.
The old lady was even more embarrassed and couldn't make any expression, only the corners of her wrinkled mouth twitched.
"Your Highness's words are reasonable, but these are bricks, and it's not a matter of piling them up here, so I think it's better to put them outside." The old lady waved her hand to the housekeeper.
As soon as Jia Ding stepped out of one leg, Li Qingqing immediately sighed again, "Who dare!" β
The housekeeper's raised legs didn't dare to step down, holding a dustpan of waste bricks, and playing a golden rooster independence.
Gongsun Fu smiled dumbly, followed closely behind Li Qingqing, and watched her do evil.
"Yesterday, my grandmother was in front of my mother, but she snorted and tears told you about your relationship with your grandfather and this wall.
Now that you want to do this, I am afraid that if the mother emperor knows, it will inevitably not suspect that you are cheating the king! β
Li Qingqing bit the accent on the word bullying.
The old lady and the sons, the daughter-in-law's face was even greener, as if she had just been fished out of the water, and her face was still covered with moss.
No matter how cultured Gongsun Fu was, he couldn't hold back his laughter at this moment, but he laughed very skillfully, and as soon as the laughter came out, he immediately reached out to cover his mouth, like a cough.
Dai Weichang, the master craftsman, was holding back a smile on the side, thinking that the old lady's coffin board was almost unpressable.
Outside the door, the independent family of the golden rooster successfully attracted passers-by to watch, and many people stopped there and whispered.
Li Qingqing's voice passed over not loud or small, "What are you still doing in a daze, don't invite your grandfather back home!" Oh, yesβ"
Li Qingqing turned his head to look at Gongsun Fu behind him, "Mr. Gongsun, please go outside and buy a few sets of clothes for your grandfather, and then buy a beautiful box to make his old man's house more comfortable!" β
After Li Qingqing finished speaking, he winked at Gongsun Fu.
Gongsun Fu held back a laugh and lowered his head and coughed a few times.
Here, the face of the Guogongfu family turned from green to green, from green to black, and then to white.
The passers-by who looked lively outside laughed, "A bunch of broken bricks are still worshiped by ancestors, we don't understand this rich man's world!" β
"Big family, really good at playing!"
After a short time, Gongsun Fu had already held a few feet of cloth, carried a wooden box over, and asked the family to pour all the bricks inside.
The family didn't dare to mess around, and looked up at the old lady.
But the old lady glared at him with a complicated look, as if to say that if you dare to pretend, I will chop you and chop it together, and as if to say, forget it, you pretend.
Jia Ding is very puzzled, I feel that both meanings are both, but I am not sure, in the end, the family Ding collapsed, is it too late to reincarnate now?
"What are you still doing in a daze, pretend! Do you think our whole family is guilty of defrauding the king? The old lady saw that the family couldn't understand the look, so she could only yell at him angrily.
When the family got this, they couldn't be happy, and they felt that the old lady's words were better than ever.
As a result, several dustpans of waste bricks were wrapped in cloth and packed into boxes, and they were stacked perfectly.
The onlookers craned their necks, "Heh, this is also a craft!" β
Li Qingqing saw that the big thing was done, clapped his hands, and decided to flash people.
Gongsun Fu followed.
The old lady of the Guogong Mansion was so angry that she wanted to punch someone, but Li Qingqing was nowhere to be seen, and she turned her head and punched the children beside her.
The children around him all flashed.
She turned her head and threw her fist at the subordinates, who kept their distance under the pretext of work.
In the end, the old lady could only beat herself angrily.
And here, Li Qingqing and Gongsun Fu had already arrived at the door of an inn.
The inn's storefront is very large, the location is also very good, at first glance, it is one of the best in Chang'an City, but at this moment the door is half closed, and the guy inside is packing his luggage, and it looks like he is going to close.
Li Qingqing's footsteps stopped at the door of the inn, looking up at the signboard above, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and a smile was bound to rise in his eyes.
Gongsun Fu saw it, "Your Highness wants this inn?" β
"Is there a way for you, sir?"
Gongsun Fu smiled knowingly, turned around and went inside, and when he came out again, he already had an extra deed in his hand, and it didn't cost a penny.
Li Qingqing was surprised, "How did Mr. do it?" She thought that she would make a move herself, at best, to bargain, but she never thought that she could take an inn for free, which was incredible.
Gongsun Fu asked her meaningfully, "Does Your Highness know who the owner of this inn is?" β
"It's the dead butler of the Third Emperor Sister. In fact, it is the industry of the Three Emperor Sisters. "Li Qingqing has already investigated, and it is because he knows that he dares to come to buy it.
Because the third emperor sister Li Qinglan hung the inn in the name of the housekeeper, just to prevent anyone from finding out about her. Therefore, the title deed of this inn is written in the name of the housekeeper, and the housekeeper will send the money to the three emperor sisters again and again, or when the three emperor sisters need to make money to do things, they will directly let the housekeeper dial it from this inn.
