098 Door-to-door sweets
When Yi Gongzi's men finally walked over, Xiao Ling'er took Mu Shishi and went back to the pharmacy with a lively and satisfied look, her eyebrows and eyes were dyed with a smile, "Sister Shishi, don't say it, this Yi Gongzi is indeed very attractive, and the ones you told me before are also eight or nine." ”
"That's not it, after listening to the rumors for so long, I finally saw a real person." Mu Shishi also smiled secretly, and didn't forget to slap Xiao Ling'er's arm, "Eh, Ling'er, come and tell me, I've seen this Yi Gongzi, compared with your famous beautiful husband, which one is better-looking?" ”
"How can you compare him?"
"Oh, I've seen so many good-looking people since I was short-sighted, and I don't compare them to anyone, just talk about it."
Xiao Ling'er raised her eyebrows slightly, "If it's about appearance, the two of them have their own merits." ”
Yi Gongzi's good-looking and flamboyant and chic, he can easily attract the attention of others at a glance, a little more feminine than men, and a little more handsome than women. Mei Cheng'an is much more introverted than Yi Gongzi, but when Xiao Ling'er saw him for the first time, she knew that this man was good-looking, and when he fell asleep quietly with edges and corners, he was like a person in a painting. It's just that I don't like to laugh too much, and many times it's an iceberg face that can't tell the joys, sorrows, and sorrows, and it seems a lot more distant.
However, when he laughed, he just gently hooked the corners of his lips, but the expression on his face softened, like the warm sun in winter, which was still very refreshing.
Xiao Ling'er thought about it, and her eyebrows were also dyed with a smile, "The two of them, each with their own good looks, really can't tell the difference." ”
"That'...... If you had to choose a husband between the two, who would you choose? ”
"The more you talk about it, the more outrageous it gets." Mu Shishi was energetic, and she had to ask, Xiao Ling'er also thought about it carefully, "Then it's Mei Cheng'an, Yi Gongzi is too flamboyant, there is such a person as a husband, how sad it is every day." ”
Saying that, both of them sneered, "Ouch, it seems that our family Ling'er is quite satisfied with her husband." ”
"Eh, it's obvious that you asked me to choose between the two, where did I get anything satisfied or dissatisfied." Xiao Ling'er's face turned red, and she didn't know why she was suddenly a little shy, so she quickly pushed Mu Shishi away. Fortunately, they also walked to the pharmacy, and the medicine boy Lin Zi of the pharmacy stood at the door and waited for them, and as soon as he saw the people coming, he immediately ran over to this side, as if there was an emergency, and saved her from Sister Shishi's banter.
"Boss, little lady!"
"Yo, what's the matter, in a hurry?"
Lin Zi ran to him, gasping for breath, and then straightened out the words in his throat, "Someone is looking for the little lady." ”
"Looking for me?" Xiao Ling'er was a little puzzled, how could someone go to Mu Shishi's pharmacy to find her? "Is it Mei Cheng'an?"
Xiao Ling'er was the only person he could think of, but Lin Zi shook his head, "It's the young master of the Mei family, but it's the second young master." ”
"Mei Yongxin?"
Mu Shishi was even more confused, "How could Mei Yongxin find you and find my pharmacy, Ling'er, what happened during this time?" ”
Xiao Ling'er listened to the name, the corners of her lips tightened, she had a little score in her heart, and she was not in a hurry to answer, but just asked, "What is he looking for me for?" ”
Lin Zi shook his head, "I don't know, the second young master sent someone here, saying that he wanted to talk to the little lady about some business matters, and when he saw that you were not there, he left a message, so that the little lady could bring him a message if she was free." For the rest, it's nothing. ”
Lin Zi has been staying in the pharmacy on weekdays, and he probably knows the relationship between the little lady and the Mei family, so he was afraid that something would go wrong in this matter, so he hurriedly said it when he saw them.
Xiao Ling'er's expression eased, but Mu Shishi was still a little worried in her heart, "Ling'er, what's going on?" ”
"He was the one who followed me last time."
"Stalking you?"
"Hmm." Xiao Ling'er nodded, the last time she came out of the Baicao Hall, she always felt that something was wrong behind her. It's no wonder that she is too vigilant, but Mei Chengan has been reminding her to avoid contact with Mei Yongxin as much as possible, and she also knows that the guy must be thoughtful, and he has already stopped himself from being suspicious, how can he just ask a word or two and let it go.
What's more, the person who followed him really didn't have much ability, he was obviously doing a sneaky job, but he was still blatantly looking at her on the street, Xiao Ling'er only turned two streets slightly, and he was sure that they were indeed following him.
"Mei Yongxin was suspicious of me, he probably wanted to follow me to find out my identity, I didn't want to expose it, so I went to the pharmacy after leaving Baicaotang."
"No wonder." Mu Shishi also thought about it, "After you came back from Baicaotang that day, you stayed with me for a long time, and I think Mei Yongxin thought that you were from my pharmacy, so I found this place today." ”
"At that time, I wasn't very sure, so as not to startle the snake, so I could only do this for the time being, if I let them follow them directly to Anding Village, I'm afraid there will be more things that can be found." Thinking about it now, Xiao Ling'er was also a little glad that she was vigilant at the beginning.
"That'...... What did he do with you this time? He said, it's a business thing, so you shouldn't have found out your identity yet. ”
"Probably not." Xiao Ling'er and Mu Shishi have similar thoughts, according to Mei Yongxin's temperament, if they knew that she was Mei Cheng'an's concubine, how could there be no movement for so many days. "Business...... That day, I went to Baicaotang to sell the herbs in the medicine field in the back mountain, and what Mei Yongxin wanted to talk about was probably this thing, but how could he suddenly find my head. It stands to reason that these medicines are all purchased by Baicaotang, and there will be no changes easily, and that place is not Mei Yongxin's control. ”
She doesn't know much about the Mei family, but she has probably heard about it, and most of the Mei family's shops and businesses are in charge of Mei Cheng'an, especially Baicaotang.
Mei Yong's novice hands are just a few small shops, although the scarce medicinal materials in those medicine shops can also be used, but the number is much smaller, it should always be transferred from Baicaotang, how could something suddenly change because of this.
"This ......" Mu Shishi breathed a long sigh of relief, since she hadn't discovered Ling Er's identity, it wasn't too bad, just thinking about Ling Er's words, she frowned again, but after a little hesitation, she immediately let go, "Wait, Ling Er, do you think it will have something to do with Yi Gongzi's business this time?" ”
"Yi Gongzi?"
Xiao Ling'er's expression also opened, and she slapped her palms, "Yes, didn't you tell me before that Young Master Yi went to Tang County this time and also had some business relationship with the Mei family, maybe it's really a matter of this." ”
Thinking about this, Xiao Ling'er really knew what it meant to have nowhere to find it when she stepped on iron shoes, and there was another village.
I had to bother thinking about something, but I couldn't say it, so I sent it to the door by myself.
She immediately took Mu Shishi's hand, "Sister Shishi, the medicinal canteen will open tomorrow, can it work?" ”
"Tomorrow? Why was the decision so sudden? Didn't you say you would have to wait for the right time? ”
"Now is the time! Even Yi Gongzi has come to Tang County, and the time has come. ”
Although Mu Shishi didn't quite understand what Xiao Ling'er was thinking, but Ling'er had said before that when the medicine canteen opened, she must not miss Yi Gongzi's visit to Tang County this time, and she has always been preparing to open at any time during this time, so she naturally nodded, "Don't worry, everything in the shop is ready and ready to open at any time." However, I just listened to you say that you had publicized the opening of the medicine restaurant to the outside world, but I didn't disclose the time, but now that it opened so suddenly, I'm afraid that the news won't get out, and I'm afraid there won't be many people in the first two days. ”
"There are not many people." Xiao Ling'er laughed, "After all, there are some people, one is enough." ”
As she spoke, she saw that Mu Shishi could open at any time, and she did not delay, so she quickly ordered.
"Lin Zi, you help me go to the second young master of the Mei family to reply to a letter, just say that I agree to meet with him, but I will set the time and place, and I will have lunch tomorrow in the newly opened medicinal canteen on South Street, waiting for his arrival."
"Okay." Lin Zi answered and quickly retreated.
"Sister Shishi, you also let people spread the news that the medicine canteen will open for business tomorrow, but you have to let them know that this is not an official opening, but a trial opening for a few days."
"Soft opening? Ling'er, what the hell are you up to? ”
Xiao Ling'er's eyes lit up, "Whether it's a ghost idea or not, tomorrow, we will know." ”
Originally, she had already thought of this idea, and she was going to Yi Gongzi. But I didn't expect that someone could send it to the door again, such fragrant dumplings are placed there, don't eat for nothing, don't eat for nothing, don't take advantage of it, bastard.
"Okay." Xiao Ling'er said so, and Mu Shishi didn't ask any more, since she had a score in her heart, naturally there was no need to worry too much about this kind of thing, just believe her.
Thinking like this, the worried look on Mu Shishi's face faded, and she pulled Xiao Ling'er again, "Let's go, let's not go back to the pharmacy, go to the medicine canteen, I'll take you to see the two of you." ”
"Who?"
"You'll find out when you go." Mu Shishi also learned from her, put on a mysterious appearance, and without saying a word, she dragged her to the medicinal canteen.
It didn't take long to arrive at the South Street Bridge, the medicine canteen has been repaired for some time, but the plaque has not been hung up, just waiting for the official opening.
The name is actually very simple, Shi Ling, each take a word from her and Mu Shishi's name. The poetry is overwhelming, but it is also very in line with the elegant decorative conception of their medicinal canteen.
There is also a look inside, and the Hongling that should be hung is also hung up, and it can indeed be opened at any time, and even the tables and chairs are neatly arranged and cleaned up.
They walked into the backyard, Mu Shishi asked Xiao Ling'er to stand in the middle of the backyard, and shouted in the yard, "Come out quickly, meet our other boss!" ”
