After the doctor and the others left, Xiao Manqi on the bed opened his eyes, "Pearl? ”

Pearl who had just walked to the door heard the call and rushed into the house in surprise: "Madam, are you awake?" Is there anything wrong with you, the doctor has just left, or I will send someone to ask him at once, so that he can take your pulse again. ”

"It's so long-winded at a young age." Xiao Man frowned with disgust.

Pearl didn't know whether she was angry or anxious, "Madam! ”

Su Xiaoman blinked, "Okay, I'm fine, what the doctor said just now is all a lie to you, you can help me up, and then ask someone to invite Sister Wanrou to come." ”

Hearing this, Pearl couldn't help but be stunned, and she didn't come to her senses for a long time.

It's all a lie?

"Still stunned for what to do, go and invite Sister Wanrou to come."

Under Xiaoman's constant urging, Pearl finally came to her senses, and hurriedly ordered someone to go to the Wei Mansion to invite Xia Wanrou, and then helped Xiaoman to get up and refreshed for her, just when Xiaoman wiped her face, Xia Wanrou also came.

She hurriedly crossed the threshold, "What the hell is going on, didn't Fang Cai shed so much blood, and now how can you say that it's okay at all?" ”

Xiao Man put down the towel, walked out excitedly, turned around in front of Xia Wanrou, and said with a smug smile: "Sister Wanrou, do you think I look like something?" Just now, I played a scene with the doctor and tricked you all. ”

"What the hell is going on?" Xia Wanrou was still a little stunned and didn't react.

Su Xiaoman pursed his lips and smiled, and told him exactly what happened after he was robbed by Chen Hu.

When Chen Hu took her to the princess's mansion immediately, Xiao Man was very frightened, and regretted that he didn't listen to Xia Wanrou's words, and at this time, Chen Hu carried her back to the secluded house in the northeast corner of the princess's mansion.

At this time, Xiaoman had regained his senses a little. She knew that Xia Wanrou would definitely find someone to save her, so at this time, she only needed to try her best to delay time.

Fortunately, Chen Hu is not an impatient person, Xiaoman deliberately softened his posture in order to deceive Chen Hu's trust, and when he completely relaxed his vigilance, she lied that she wanted to have a more fun time with him, and Chen Hu readily agreed.

As soon as he took off Chen Hu's coat, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door.

Xiao Man finally breathed a sigh of relief, she immediately shouted for help, but it attracted Chen Hu's suspicions, he finally understood at this time that Xiao Man's compromise was just to delay time, so he didn't go out, but turned around and pinched Xiao Man's neck fiercely.

That's why the cries for help came to an abrupt end.

Xia Wanrou had already pinched her heart when she heard this, and the whole person was very nervous, she clenched her veil tightly, and looked at Su Xiaoman without blinking, lest something more terrible would happen next.

Seeing this, Su Xiaoman couldn't help but sneer, "Sister Wanrou, I'm fine now, why are you so worried?"

Xia Wanrou reacted suddenly, and couldn't help pinching the handkerchief to cover her lips and coughing lightly twice to hide her embarrassment.

Jade on the side couldn't wait, "Madam, you can continue to talk, what happened?" ”

"Wait for me to take a sip of tea, and then talk slowly." Xiao Man pursed his lips and smiled, paused for a moment and continued.

Just when Su Xiaoman was pinched by Chen Hu and could barely exhale, the sound of "The emperor has arrived" suddenly came from outside, Chen Hu immediately panicked, and crawled out to see the emperor, and Su Xiaoman was the only one left in the house.

She originally wanted to go out immediately, so that she could take the lead in presenting to the emperor while Chen Hu had not yet cleared up her responsibilities.

But soon, Xiaoman realized that he couldn't do this.

This incident alarmed the emperor, it was the best opportunity to bring down Chen Hu, she had to take advantage of the fact that there were many people now, and the emperor's anger value reached its peak, take advantage of this good opportunity to use the emperor to completely defeat Chen Hu.

Therefore, Xiao Man immediately ripped his clothes, slapped himself a few times, bit his fingers, and wiped the blood on the corners of his mouth. Then she took the tea from the table, strained all the tea, and poured it all over the hem of her skirt, so that she could make herself bleed a lot. Fortunately, she was wearing a dark dress today, and she couldn't tell whether the wet skirt was blood or water for a short time.

And everyone will have a preconceived impression, everyone knows that Xiaoman is pregnant, and now her skirt is wet, and she is lying on the ground weakly, everyone will subconsciously think that this is because Xiaoman lost blood due to panic.

When she had done all this, she lay down on the ground, opened her throat and screamed at the door, then closed her eyes tightly.

The luckiest thing is that the doctor brought by Xia Wanrou today is the one who diagnoses Xiao Man's pulse every day, Xiao Man is familiar with him, taking advantage of the emperor's accountability of Chen Hu, everyone's attention was diverted by Chen Hu, and she secretly winked at the doctor who diagnosed the pulse.

The doctor is so smart, and he understands Xiaoman's temperament, and he is deeply favored by Xiaoman, so he will naturally understand immediately.

But after all, she didn't have an accident, and it was not good for the doctor to make up the condition too much, so she said a pulse that was not light or serious, and the emperor of the province would find a royal doctor to diagnose and treat it.

After hearing all this, Xia Wanrou finally breathed a sigh of relief, but she immediately began to blame Xiao Man again: "Why didn't you tell me about this matter, it made me worry for so long." ”

"Sister Wanrou, I also have to wait for the emergency situation, besides, if you knew in advance, could you still be so sad and scared? Our emperor is suspicious, but anyone who has the slightest abnormality, he has to be suspicious. Xiaoman explained.

Xia Wanrou sighed, "You're right, but...... Hey, that's a risky thing to do. ”

Su Xiaoman smiled and took a sip of tea indifferently, "If you don't enter the tiger's den, you will get the tiger, with this experience, Chen Hu will definitely not dare to be an enemy with us, so won't our store be saved?" You're right, Sister Wanrou.

Hearing this, Xia Wanrou nodded thoughtfully, "You're right, but this time, presumably Chen Hu's little marquis was not so easily forgiven." ”

This time, no matter whether the emperor was really angry at that time, or just acting in front of everyone, he had to punish Chen Hu severely, otherwise it would be difficult to calm the anger of the masses.

Sure enough, as Xia Wanrou said, on the third day of this incident, that is, the day when Xiao Man could go out justifiably, the whole of Upper Kyoto was spreading the news that Chen Hu's little marquis was driven to the east of Kangcheng by the emperor.

The whole house was full of joy, and everyone had a smile on their faces.

"Shopkeeper Su, it's good now, we don't have to worry about the shopkeeper of Yaliu Pavilion and the little marquis anymore." Wang Qixing said excitedly.

Su Xiaoman pursed his lips and smiled, took the teacup on the table and took a sip, "The business of the store is getting better and better these days, and we can discuss the matter of opening a semicolon, Sister Wanrou, what do you think?" ”

After this incident, Xia Wanrou never worried about Xiaoman again, she knew that the other party had an idea, and she was clever, and the child in her belly was really angry, and she was safe and sound after so many things, so she would never refute Xiaoman's decision.

Now that Xiaoman wants to open a semicolon again, she naturally readily agrees.

"Okay," Xiao Man got up with great interest, "That Wang Qi, Lao Zhou, Qin Chun and Wan Wenhan, the bookkeeper, you guys have been taking care of the store these days, and the shopkeeper Xia and I are busy with semicolon matters these days, so don't ask for our opinions if there is no important matter, you can make your own ideas." ”

Saying that, Xiao Man ordered Jade to bring a few new patterns that she brought out from the house, and she stepped forward and handed the patterns to Qin Chun and Lao Zhou, "I have nothing to think of at home these days, you can try them first, and add those that are feasible to the pattern book." ”

After ordering all this, Xiao Man breathed a sigh of relief, "Then it's up to you for the next few days." ”

Wang Qi said with a smile: "The rest assured of the two shopkeepers will live up to your expectations." ”

It was not early, and Xiao Man and Xia Wanrou still had to go to see the store, so they gave a few more instructions, and left the Manrou Garment Shop in a carriage.

Xiaoman had been bent on opening a semicolon before, so he had already ordered someone to turn around the shops that were being rented or sold in the city, and when they finished transferring, they would report the address and size of the store one by one.

Xiao Man looked at the shops on the list, and then looked at the sun outside, and couldn't help asking, "Sister Wanrou, do you think we can finish these shops before sunset?" ”

"Slow work and meticulous work, no matter what it is, it's not good to be in a hurry." Xia Wanrou was very calm.

"Okay."

Riding the carriage, the two arrived at the first one, which was originally a rouge shop, the store was very small, but because the shopkeeper was in a hurry to return to his hometown, so now it is sold at a low price, compared to other stores, the price is not a star and a half.

The door of the shop was wide open, and only a man in his mid-thirties was sitting and tidying up.

Seeing this, Xiao Man took the initiative to talk, "Are you the shopkeeper of this house?" ”

The man bowed his head and packed his luggage, "So it was, but not now." ”

"What do you mean?" Xia Wanrou frowned.

The shopkeeper turned around and explained, "I've already sold the shop, and now I'm just here to pack up my things, and you're a step late." ”

With that, he turned around and continued to pack.

Fortunately, it wasn't just this one store, and since it had already been sold, the two quickly left and hurried to the next one.

But today, somehow, among the remaining dozen or so stores, either they have already sold them, or they don't plan to buy them, and they can sell them to anyone, or they don't sell them to them.

There are all kinds of strange reasons.

"There must be something greasy in this!" Xiao Man was indignant.
