Chapter 155: Stratagem
The little รท said โ Net], the โ little รท said โ Net],
In a blink of an eye, it was the day of Yan Ruyu's reopening, whether it was a new store or an old store, its reputation in the capital was not small, due to Xue Su's disappearance, many female guests saw the closure of the private hall, and they were all in a hurry, and they would send people to watch at the door every day, either wanting to do a massage, or planning to buy a fat ointment decoction.
Although there are many private restaurants in the capital, regular customers have already recognized Yan Ruyu's family, and suddenly no longer opened, which really made them both bored and anxious, and after waiting for nearly two months, it is not easy to reopen. Early this morning, there was a long queue in front of the store, there were men and women, old and young, and there were more people in the new store, after all, the price of the fat cream prepared by Xue Su was not expensive, and the effect was very significant, and many ordinary people could afford it.
The osmanthus hair oil made a few days ago has been placed on the counters of two shops at this moment, and when they saw this new thing, some customers asked, "What is this?" โ
"This is osmanthus hair oil, after bathing, when the hair is not dry, rub the hair oil with both hands and apply it on it, which can make the hair black and thick, a hundred times stronger than the original, and even play a role in hair growth." The maid standing behind the counter smiled and explained unhurriedly.
Yan Ruyu is a private hall opened by Mrs. Hou of Fuguo, just by virtue of the great exploits of the Hou Ye at the border pass, it is enough to make people feel good, plus the fat ointment decoction in the store, all of them are in good condition, and those who have used them are said to be good, and under word of mouth, there are many old customers, countless.
Therefore, as soon as the osmanthus hair oil was taken out, it was quickly snapped up, and the guests in the back of the queue saw this situation, one by one they were very curious, but they came late, and they couldn't buy this thing at all.
Beauty's Place.
Hearing the news from the little girl, Cheng Sanniang almost didn't get up, she threw the teacup on the ground, a pair of fox eyes were full of fire, this distorted appearance was no different from the evil ghost who crawled out of the hell.
Xue Su, that slut, was born against her, snatched away her incomparably precious secret recipe, opened a private hall and forced her head everywhere, why didn't this vicious and despicable woman die in the hands of the mountain bandits in Yueshan? As soon as the news of her life came to her ears, Cheng Sanniang felt bad.
The ominous premonition that has been lingering in my mind in recent days has now become a reality, as long as there is Yan Ruyu for a day, her beauty will be severely suppressed, and she will never be able to turn over, it is really too deceitful!
Rongxi's time of serving by Cheng Sanniang's side is not short, seeing the appearance of her master, she couldn't help but sigh again and again, and persuaded in a dumb voice, "Master, don't be angry, the Xue family is a widow now, without the help of the auxiliary marquis, she will be like a puddle of mud, and the scenery will not last long." โ
"Don't rush to say something nice, as early as when I was in Jingyang, Xue Su was like a dog skin plaster, firmly stuck to me, and now when I arrive in the capital, I still can't get rid of this woman, she is so ghostly, it's really disgusting!"
There were a lot of maids waiting in the house, and they cleaned up all the broken porcelain pieces, and then retreated one by one against the root of the wall. Today, the proprietress is obviously in a bad mood, if they rush forward, there will definitely be no good fruit to eat, it is better to hide away, but also to live in peace.
"Master, our beauty workshop has obtained the jade decree of the Queen Mother, and has the support of Princess Jinyue, which is completely different from Yan Ruyu's shop that cannot be on the table, you don't have to be angry, the slave maid has a way to rectify the Xue family." Rongxi lowered his voice and said slowly.
After tossing for several years, Xue Su has become a stinger in the heart of Sanniang, if she doesn't pull out this thorn completely, she will never feel happy.
"What's the method?"
"Princess Jinyue is extremely disgusted with the Xue family, this master has a noble status, if she uses Yan Ruyu's things and gives birth to a mistake, the Xue family will definitely be to blame, even if she is a righteous lady? Fuguohou is no longer there, and there are definitely not a few people who want to step her into the muddy water......"
Hearing Rong Xi's words, Cheng Sanniang's resentful mood gradually calmed down, the fox's eyes flashed, he reached out and poked the maid's forehead, and said with a smile, "You still have a way with this hoof, and when Yan Ruyu closes the door, I will reward you with one hundred taels of silver!" โ
Ordinary minions can only earn two taels of silver a month, and one hundred taels of snowflake silver can really be called an astronomical amount for Rongxi, with a strong joy in her eyes, and she thanked her master with a stack of voices.
"Okay, okay, don't talk so much nonsense, I'll go to the Champion Mansion now and discuss it with the princess." While saying this, Cheng Sanniang walked into the back room, changed her clothes again, and then left from the beauty shop and walked away in a carriage.
Wang Youqing was originally a mud leg from Jingyang, even if his family was well-off, it was not enough to see it when he got it to the capital, and he was a slave in the Zhuangyuan Mansion, most of whom were brought by Princess Jinyue. I don't know if it's because they came out of the palace, they are all very arrogant, and they can't wait to look at people with their nostrils, even if Cheng Sanniang comes here several times, their attitude is still very cold.
At this moment, Jinyue was sitting in the side hall and talking, when she heard that Cheng Sanniang was visiting, she couldn't help frowning, her eyes showed a trace of disgust, but she couldn't stop people out of the door, so she could only order the maid, "Bring people in." โ
Cheng Sanniang is also a frequent visitor to the Wang family, but she served as a counterpart to Yu's father-in-law, and she mixed with eunuchs every day, so she couldn't be on the stage.
Seeing that the master was in a bad mood, the maid responded respectfully, and soon led Cheng Sanniang in.
"Sanniang has seen the princess."
Even if Jinyue doesn't wait to see the woman in front of her, she won't give her no face, Cheng Sanniang is Youqing's cousin, and her mother-in-law loves her very much, so she must not tear her face, otherwise it is really inappropriate.
"It's all a family, cousin doesn't need to be polite, sit down." After she sat down, Princess Jinyue was not in a hurry, and continued to play the rope, her expression was calm and peaceful, like an orchid blooming by the stream, which made people feel a little relaxed and happy.
Cheng Sanniang's city is not shallow, and she soon discovered the indifference in the woman's eyes, and knew that she was deliberately drying herself.
Pursing her lips and smiling, she stretched out her hand and pointed to the east, and said, "Does the princess know that the Xue family is back?" Yan Ruyu reopened today, I don't know how many customers went to the private restaurant, and pressed the beauty shop to death, the store is Sanniang's hard work, Youqing also put silver into it, and now she is forced to live without a trace, which is really depressing. โ
Cheng Sanniang's words are half-true, even if Yan Ruyu is in the limelight, but the beauty shop will not be reduced to the point of closing the store. It's just that she used disgraceful means to snatch the secret recipe from many private museums before, and the quality of the grease she developed is indeed not bad, and she has won the jade decree of the Queen Mother, many guests have already recognized this place, even if Yan Ruyu's reputation is loud, they will not easily change places.
"Cousin, think about it, how many times has this palace helped you from the beginning to the present? How many times have you helped Beauty? If it weren't for Youqing's face, how could a private house be worthy of the palace's labor? Throwing the rope back into the bamboo basket, Jinyue sneered.
"Sanniang knows that the princess is bothered, but do you really want to continue to tolerate the Xue family? She has a gorgeous appearance, a dissolute nature, Chu Qinghe fell off a cliff and died, how can a beautiful woman in her early twenties endure loneliness, and in the next few decades, An An was born a widow in the Fuguo Marquis's mansion? Can you really put your mind at ease? โ
Just because she was not at ease, Jinyue would buy the mountain bandits in Yueshan and let them completely destroy Xue Su, at that time, this woman would be covered with stains, Youqing was arrogant by nature, and there was no room for sand in her eyes, how could she fall in love with her?
But things were far from going as smoothly as she expected, Xue Su just fell into the trap, and before he could be taken to Yueshan, he was rescued. Then Ge Chong, Xu Cheng and others exterminated all the bandits, so that hundreds of people lived a stable and happy life, and made such a great achievement, everyone's hearts were attracted, who else would investigate whether the Xue family lost his virginity?
Besides, Jin Yue also heard that the female thief had been imprisoned in the Fuguo Marquis's Mansion before, and if she confessed herself, all the conspiracies would not be able to be concealed, what should I do?
"Youqing is a concubine, even if Xue Su is bold, she doesn't dare to have evil thoughts, otherwise she won't end well." With such words, I don't know if I am convincing Cheng Sanniang or comforting myself.
"Princess, don't make trouble, let's make a few shots three times, Xue's heart is as small as a needle, how can you not hold a grudge? She really can't be with Youqing openly, but if the two have a private relationship behind their backs, no one can control it. โ
Cheng Sanniang's words were like sharp needles, piercing into Jinyue's flesh and blood, dripping her tortured blood and making it painful.
Closing her eyes, the woman hissed and asked, "What are you going to do?" โ
Cheng Sanniang's eyes flashed with a vague look of pride, and she spoke slowly, "The princess is noble, and her skin can be broken by blowing, if she uses Yan Ruyu's ointment, something goes wrong, and then she will make trouble in front of the saint and the imperial concubine, even if the Xue family is a first-class lady?" Private museums are still inevitably closed. Let's not seek to completely defeat the Xue family at one time, like this kind of thing, as long as it comes two or three times, the guilt in His Majesty's heart will disappear little by little, and when the time comes, she will say that she is Chu Qinghe's widow, even if it is His Majesty's concubine, it will be useless. โ
Although this plan is full of loopholes, his father and mother love him very much, and he will definitely not investigate it deeply. Thinking like this, Jinyue waved her hand and said, "This palace knows what to do, you go back first, there will be good news in a few days." โ
Seeing that Jinyue should respond to this matter, Cheng Sanniang's heart swelled with deep ecstasy, she pursed her lips, respectfully blessed her body, and then left from the Wang family.
