Chapter Ninety-Seven: Spreading Wings (II)
“…… Tianxiang Building? As if he didn't know, Li Laohan looked at Mu Wanqiu fixedly, "That's the first floor of Shuoyang, I heard that it's more than a dozen taels a night, where can we live?" He called out earnestly, "Ah Qiu, even if you have silver, you can't spend it like that, go and retreat, you will live with the uncle......" paused, "Save one, it's a ......"
"Uncle, I don't spend money living there......
“…… And that good thing? Old Man Li's face sank, "...... You're fooling your uncle again."
"It's true......" Mu Wanqiu patiently explained, "Because of the Douxiang Club, the inns of Shuoyang are full, I heard that Tianxianglou is the property of the Li family, so I took Li's jade card to try, who knew that when the shopkeeper saw this jade card, he immediately arranged a first-class suite, and told me that I only lived in peace of mind, and did not accept ......."
"That's not good, Ah Qiu, we can't deceive people, ...... who lose their conscience" Li Laohan thought that this was fraud.
"Uncle......" Mu Wanqiu shouted, "It's not what you think, you don't understand that these rich people are the most decent people, I originally brought silver, but the shopkeeper Li Dart said that he didn't want anything, saying that Li You's explanation, seeing this jade plate is like seeing him, let ...... be entertained." After a pause, "He also said that if he accepted my money, he would not be able to do it, and begged me to fulfill him......
“…… These rich people, it's really confusing? Li Laohan shook his head, he didn't understand, Li Jun's fairy-like character was so good to a poor and helpless little girl like Mu Wanqiu, didn't he say that he was rich and unkind? Don't......
Although it is darker, if you look closely, Mu Wanqiu is also a rare beauty.
"Ah Qiu, he ......" The thought flashed, and he subconsciously shouted.
"Uncle, ......" Hearing that the voice was wrong, Mu Wanqiu raised her head suspiciously.
His lips moved, Li Laohan was speechless, Mu Wanqiu was always a girl, he was really not good at asking this old man.
"Ah Qiu......" for a long time, he sighed, "It's not that Uncle doesn't listen, it's like this kind of rich, let's stay away from them......" The tone was very decisive, "You just go to the inn and live here with me, don't go anywhere, although Uncle is a little broken and poor, but he lives steadily and at ease...... Chewie...... We can't afford to socialize with those people."
Li would never marry someone with such a background as Mu Wanqiu, and even if he could, he was afraid that he would only be a lowly concubine, or a concubine.
He heard that Yao Shixing had four or five rooms around him, and his status and treatment were not even as good as a decent big girl.
Her body trembled slightly, and Mu Wanqiu instantly understood what Li Laohan meant.
The hand hidden in the sleeve clenched tightly into a fist.
She understands this, in the previous life, she lost her life for this, and in this life, she will never repeat the mistakes of the past.
Taking a breath secretly, Mu Wanqiu forcibly suppressed the hatred churning in her chest, and tried to make her voice sound flat, "This is also impossible, I don't do this, Han Changsheng is not from the Li family, and if I don't have a very solid background, I won't let me lower the price......" said her plan to disguise herself as a man and not use her real name to exchange for the workshop, "...... People, that's it, the richer you are, the more people want to lend you, the more they want to associate with you, the more they dare to spend money on you, and the less rich you are, the more people will avoid you......"
Nodding, Li Laohan touched the dry tobacco pouch on his waist again, and said goodbye after half untying it.
"Uncle, don't worry......" Seeing him frowning, Mu Wanqiu said in a brisk tone, "When I make money in the future, I will return it to Li is ...... originally."
"Then ......," Li Laohan sighed inaudibly, "You can settle Han Ji and live." ”
"Well, I'm only going to ......live there when I'm dealing with the spice business," Mu Wanqiu replied vaguely, leaning forward again, "Don't tell your aunt......" pursed her lips mischievously, "She's going to nag me again......"
glanced at her, Li Laohan was speechless.
"The meal is ready...... "Suozi Niang walked in with a steaming porridge pot.
Mu Wanqiu got up and greeted him.
……
It is separated from the Douxiang venue by a street, and although the front of Tianxianglou is not as crowded as the East Street entrance, it is also full of traffic and is very lively.
A blue carriage stopped at the gate of Tianxianglou, Li Laohan hugged the stiff rope, "......" turned over and jumped out of the carriage, stepped forward to open the door, "Ah ......, it's ......"
The probe looked out, Mu Wanqiu jumped out of the carriage with her hands on the door, she was not used to clogs, her body was planted, and she was supported by Li Laohan, "...... Ah Qiu, can you do it without skipping words. The voice was low, and Li Laohan looked worried.
This is a place where rich and noble people come, looking at the pedestrians, cars and horses in bright and gorgeous clothes coming and going in front of the gate of Tianxianglou, Li Laohan's face is even more worried.
"It's okay...... Mu Wanqiu stood firm, twisted her five fingers lightly, opened the elephant bone peony beauty pattern folding fan, and shook it a few times, "...... Uncle, let's go, Han Changsheng is here, you can take him directly to Pinxiang Pavilion. ”
“…… Pavilion? Looking at the personable Mu Wanqiu, Li Laohan was a little stunned.
"Pinxiang Pavilion ......" Mu Wanqiu repeated again, "Uncle remembered ......"
"Pin...... Fragrant...... Pavilion ......" Old Man Li muttered, jumped into the carriage, and slammed his whip, "...... Driving"
Seeing that the carriage was gone, Mu Wanqiu turned around and climbed the white marble stairs in front of the Tianxiang Tower step by step.
"Ann ......" the young man guarding the door opened the door for her respectfully, "...... Are you staying or dining? ”
"I ordered Pinxiang Pavilion ......"
"Pin...... Pinxiang Pavilion? The young man's waist instantly bent at a right angle, "Wait a minute, I'll call the big shopkeeper......" Yu Guang peeked at Mu Wanqiu and thought secretly, "...... Where is this man? actually let him order Pinxiang Pavilion. ”
Enduring the discomfort on her feet, Mu Wanqiu nodded faintly, gently shook the elephant bone peony beauty pattern folding fan, and swept her eyes around.
Seeing that she was so leisurely, there was an indescribable romance, and the young man said no more, and trotted to call the big shopkeeper.
The big shopkeeper Li Dart hurriedly walked downstairs in three steps and two steps, and was stunned when he saw the blue clothes who were looking intently at a huge picture of beauty incense in the middle of the hall.
It's not that little girl
"This ......," he called out hesitantly.
Turning around slowly, her five fingers lightly twisting the folding fan, Mu Wanqiu smiled slightly, "You are the shopkeeper of Li Dart Li......"
"You ......" Li Dart frowned, Tianxianglou is known as the first floor of Shuoyang in the catering industry, and who does not respectfully respect him for Li Ye?
Except that his family is big.
His face changed slightly, and Li Dart was about to speak, when he saw the Lizi Pattern Crane Master Emerald Jade Plate hanging from Mu Wanqiu's waist, his body trembled, and he carefully looked at the person in front of him.
He was wearing a sapphire blue brocade gown, holding a fine elephant bone peony beauty pattern folding fan, and wearing the most popular black gauze hat on his head, hazy to cover a handsome and elegant face, luxurious and a bit mysterious, the light was dazzling and people did not dare to force their eyes, hurriedly looked away, Li Dart secretly thought, "...... Do you think that the conference will give the jade plate that you have carried for more than ten years to a black and thin little girl? But it turns out that this is the main ......."
"Your surname is ......" In an instant, Li Dart smiled on his face.
"My surname is black, and the single word is Mu ......" Even if it is men's clothing, Mu Wanqiu did not dare to report her real surname, remembering that Qin Jian once called her a black girl, she was confused.
"Black ...... Mu ...... "opened to do catering, Li Dart first remembered the owner's large and small relatives and friends, he thought for a long time, and did not remember that there was a person named Heimu next to Li Jun, he was suspicious, but he didn't dare to slack off, "It turned out to be black, I often heard it mentioned in the next day, long Yang, long Yang...... "respectfully let it upstairs, "Pinxiang Pavilion has already prepared it for you, please ......"
It would be strange for Li Jun to mention her
Mu Wanqiu glanced at him with a smile, and was not polite, and stepped on the stairs calmly.
In her previous life, she fell into the dust, and it was common for her to enter and exit the mansion of wealthy generals, and she did not have a trace of timidity and discomfort with this.
Looking at her calm and tranquil back, Li Dart's eyes gradually became respectful, "...... Just looking at his momentum, he is not a little marquis or a prince of the wang family, he must be acquainted with Daxin, I have to serve him well...... Yesterday, I heard that the eldest son punished the third master of the Yao family for a little girl, the same mistake, I can't make ......" The thought flashed, and Li Dart bowed his head and followed.
He poured a cup of tea and handed it forward, "...... Black please use tea. ”
"Hmm......" took a sip, Mu Wanqiu nodded, "Longquan boiled red robe, smell the charm and fragrance is natural, the taste is smooth and fresh, good water, good tea" looked at Li Dart, "worthy of Brother Li's praise, his Tianxianglou tea ceremony is the best in the world" A sip can taste the quality of the tea, and the water quality is also a compulsory lesson for her in her previous life.
Tasting tea and incense, they are all things of rich and noble families, hearing this, Li Dart is more convinced of Mu Wanqiu's identity, originally Mu Wanqiu took Li Jun's jade pendant to book a room, gritted his teeth and gave her the only private room Pinxiang Pavilion that he didn't dare to book out, he was still a little hesitant in his heart, thinking about whether to inform Li Jun quickly, at this time he was convinced.
He made the right decision.
"I really didn't see it, Hei is a master at a young age......" Li Dart was full of admiration and said calmly, "...... My Tianxianglou is a must to make tea, everyone is curious about why the tea in Tianxianglou is so fragrant, but few people can taste that I used the water of Longquan hundreds of miles away......" Seeing Mu Wanqiu smiling slightly, he also laughed, and the topic changed, "...... Black comes to Shuoyang, but is it for the Douxiang Club? "His incense building is full on this day, and the people who live there are all dignitaries and nobles who have come to the great cause of health and well-being, and they are here for the fight.
Nodding slightly, Mu Wanqiu was noncommittal, "I'll ......leave after the Douxiang Meeting," she changed the topic, "I made an appointment with the shopkeeper Han on West Street, and asked the shopkeeper Li to tell Xiao Er at the door, and he came and brought it here directly......"
“…… Han shopkeeper? Li Dart frowned, "Hei is talking about Han Ji's Han Changsheng?" ”
Yes By].
