Chapter Ninety-Eight: Please
Two days after the first snow fell in winter, Xiao Zhiqiu and Fan Caiqing, the three sisters, went to Jinxiu Pavilion, which was already newly decorated, and Shopkeeper Yang was very happy and satisfied to see that the store he had been operating for many years had changed to such a new look.
Looking at Xiao Zhiqiu, Shopkeeper Yang felt more and more admiration and liking for this Xiao girl, if it weren't for her, how could Jinxiu Pavilion be able to refresh things from the inside out in just over a month, and also made such a new and future plan for the future direction of Jinxiu Pavilion, especially now that he still knows that Liu Shizi likes Miss Xiao, he can't help but respect her.
I was about to greet Xiao Zhiqiu and Fan Caiqing, the three sisters, to go up to the second floor to drink tea, but I saw a young man who was dressed luxuriously and looked like he was not low, and the shopkeeper Yang stepped forward to greet him with a smile: "This son, the store is now being rectified, and the son may wish to come over in five days, and there will be a big gift when the store opens." ”
Tang Lin smiled when he heard this strange words, "Oh, if you have any big gifts, the shopkeeper might as well tell me first, I'll see if you want to come and patronize you in five days," After saying that, he walked in around the shopkeeper Yang with his hand, and smiled at Xiao Zhiqiu, who obviously didn't expect to see him, and leaned down to look at her clear eyes: "Miss Xiao, let's meet again." His eyes were full of smiles, and he was obviously in a very good mood.
Xiao Zhiqiu looked at Tang Lone, but he couldn't laugh, even the three sisters of Fan Caiqing were a little stunned, how could he find here?
Tang Lin raised his eyes and looked at the newly decorated Jinxiu Pavilion, looking very interested and appreciative, "I heard that the new jewelry style of this Jinxiu Pavilion was painted by Miss Xiao herself, and this king is very interested, so I want to come over and set a set for this king's sister as soon as possible, I wonder if Miss Xiao will do this king's business?" ”
Shopkeeper Yang followed behind, looked at Tang Lin and Xiao Zhiqiu, and heard Tang Lin call himself 'this king', and suddenly he didn't dare to be rude, seeing Xiao Zhiqiu standing there for some reason without saying a word, although he was strange and puzzled, he hurriedly stepped forward and responded: "Naturally, the prince came to our store to order jewelry, that is a great affirmation of Jinxiu Pavilion, I don't know which jewelry the prince wants to order?" ”
Tang Xiao was very satisfied with Xiao Zhiqiu's reaction, with the pleasure of cat and mouse mastering the rules of the game. "Naturally, it's the set of 'Four Gentlemen' that you sell in limited quantities in today's Xiu Pavilion," and then leaned down to look at Xiao Zhiqiu, with interest in research: "I heard that the word 'limited sales' was invented by Miss Xiao, Miss Xiao is really smart, this king has increased her knowledge, I don't know if Miss Xiao can explain the mystery of this for this king." ”
Xiao Zhiqiu looked at Tang Lian, there was no smile in his eyes, and he asked helplessly, "Lord Ning, what do you want to do?" ”
Tang Xiao smiled lightly when he heard this, and looking at Xiao Zhiqiu's very serious look, he couldn't help but laugh. "Didn't this king tell you a few days ago, this king is very interested in you and wants to marry you back to be a princess."
Xiao Zhiqiu's eyes flashed, obviously he didn't expect Tang Lin to say such a thing.
And Shopkeeper Yang was also surprised, and then he understood that this Ning Wangye's original intention was not to buy jewelry, but to find Xiao Zhiqiu, and he was suddenly more angry than Xiao Zhiqiu, but after all, he had seen the world, and he had never seen any strange things, so when he saw that it was a grievance between young people, he was also interested, not to mention that he couldn't manage it if he wanted to, just thinking about Liu Shizi, could it be that King Ning wanted to rob a woman with Liu Shizi? Shopkeeper Yang felt that things were really complicated, so he had to ask for more blessings for Xiao Zhiqiu.
And Fan Caiqing and Fan Caiqing also recognized Tang Lonely, and they had also heard Fan Caiqian mention the events of that day, so in addition to being a little surprised that Tang Lone would say such a thing, they were not surprised by his identity.
Seeing Tang Lin casually say such ridiculous words to Xiao Zhiqiu, Fan Caiqing thought that Tang Lin was a prodigal prince, or he had a heart of revenge and teasing them, so he went over to relieve Xiao Zhiqiu and said: "Lord Ning, Sister Zhiqiu is a good girl who abides by etiquette, King Ning's status is precious, please don't make this kind of joke in front of the public, the reputation of the girl's family is very important, Wang Ning understands." Her tone was very calm, with a faint smile, and there was nothing uncomfortable about her.
Of course, Tang Lin was not annoyed, the purpose of his coming here today was not to increase the misunderstanding, so he was in a very generous mood, looking at Fan Caiqing, he also said very seriously: "Miss Fan misunderstood, Miss Xiao's reputation is naturally important, but this king is not just talking about it, if you don't believe it, if Miss Xiao is willing, this king will immediately send someone to give a dowry, and there is no ambiguity." ”
This time it was Fan Caiqing's turn to be stunned, looking at Tang Lone, she really couldn't understand his true purpose.
Fan Caiqian was suspicious on the side, she was also very worried about Tang Lian's coming to Jinxiu Pavilion today, thinking that he was coming to her to make trouble settling accounts, but she didn't expect that he came to find Xiao Zhiqiu, originally she should be able to put her mind at ease, Tang Lin was the identity of the prince, and it was a good thing for her that he didn't pursue the past, but Tang Lin actually said such a joke to Xiao Zhiqiu for no reason, she couldn't help but feel jealous again, why did Xiao Zhiqiu get the attention of all men alone.
The atmosphere was very quiet, although Xiao Zhiqiu couldn't understand why Tang Lin wanted to tease herself like this, but she said everything that should be said, and she couldn't stop what he was going to do, so she made up her mind to pay attention and let him say anything, as long as she didn't pay attention to it, Tang Lin would naturally feel bored, so she turned around and wanted to go up to the second floor.
Suddenly, a well-dressed woman came in, and looked at the girls in Jinxiu Pavilion very quickly, because Tang Lin couldn't see her face with her back to her, she naturally ignored it, and then her eyes fell on Xiao Zhiqiu, and she looked at it slightly, her face was expressionless but the etiquette was not bad, she gave a salute, and her voice was neither light nor heavy, neither humble nor arrogant: "Miss Xiao, the old slave is from the Zhenguo Mansion, my wife wants to invite Miss Xiao to come over to the mansion to talk, and let the old slave come to invite Miss Xiao." ”
When the words fell, Xiao Zhiqiu frowned, obviously she didn't expect that the Duchess of Zhenguo would invite her to the Zhenguo Mansion, but to talk to her, Xiao Zhiqiu couldn't understand what she wanted to say to herself.
When Fan Caiqing heard this, he was also puzzled, and asked Xiao Zhiqiu to come over to speak for no reason, but it was obvious that the Duchess of Zhenguo was not very satisfied with Xiao Heqiu and liked it.
Fan Caiqing was even more annoyed, and said unceremoniously to the woman: "Please let me know what Cousin Qiu is doing in the house?" What else do we have to say to your Zhenguo Mansion? Clearly uneasy and kind. ”
When the woman heard this, she raised her head and looked at Fan Caiqing, not annoyed or angry, but replied politely: "This is the girl of the Fan family, right?" My wife sincerely invited Miss Xiao to come to the house, naturally there is something to discuss, I heard that Jinxiu Pavilion is going to open a new one, and my wife is also very interested in your jewelry. ”
Fan Caiqing was surprised when she heard this, but she didn't expect the woman to say such a thing, and Xiao Zhiqiu listened, although she didn't believe that Mrs. Zhenguo came to her purely for jewelry, but since she said so, she had no reason to refuse to go.
