Chapter Twenty-Three: Keep the Lady Busy
Before Lin Qingyun could recover from her contempt, the red kite on the side spoke: "Four girls be careful, this girl in clothes hasn't tried it yet, I don't know if it fits." Qing Yan sneered in his heart when he heard this, but he didn't look at the red kite, this food inside and out, sooner or later it will have to be cleaned up.
Lin Qingyun seemed to wake up in an instant and said: "The third sister is inconvenient, why don't you try it for you." ”
Qingyan slandered in his heart, Sima Zhao's heart, and everyone knew it, but he said with a very grateful look on his face: "Thank you for the kindness of the fourth sister, but the fourth sister is not yet fourteen years old, and her body size is much worse than that of her sister. ”
Qingyan's words fell, and seeing the coldness that flashed in Lin Qingyun's eyes, he hooked his lips again and said, "Red kite, clean it up." ”
The red kite didn't move, but Lin Qingyun spoke: "Third sister is afraid that my sister won't pay you back if she wears it?" There was a hint of coldness in his voice.
Qingyan chuckled and said: "The fourth sister misunderstood, if the fourth sister is dressed properly, the sister is willing to give it to the younger sister, but this dress is made according to the size of the sister, and the younger sister can't wear it." After that, he glanced at the red kite, and the red kite still didn't move.
Qingyan sneered in her heart, could it be that the red kite is Lin Qingyun's person, and she was exposed just for such a set of clothes? Looking at Lin Qingyun's inevitable expression, Qingyan chuckled and said, "I'm so tired!" Red Kite send the four girls out, I'm going to sleep for a while. ”
At this time, Lin Qingyun's face became even colder, she didn't get her clothes, and she was blasted out, with her father protecting her, and she had nothing to do with her, she could only hate in her heart, someone would clean you up.
Sending Lin Qingyun away, Qingyan was still thinking about what Lin Qingyi said half of what he said.
But she really can't think of what she has to do with the palace banquet, forget it, she will still come, it is better to draw more drawings by herself with this effort.
Two days have passed in a blink of an eye, Qingyan's body has recovered a lot, at least he will feel tired after a while, Qingyan is trying to practice his light skills in the courtyard, and Biliu outside the door rushed in like a gust of wind.
Qingyan was curious why she was in such a hurry, and asked without waiting for Biliu to take a breath, "Biliu, what's going on?" ”
Biliu took a breath, handed the mouse trap and a few packets of medicinal powder in his hand to Qingyan and said, "There are three things, one is a good thing, one is a bad thing, and one has nothing to do with you, girl, which one do you listen to?" ”
Qingyan raised her hand and tapped Biliu's forehead and said, "The little girl has also learned to sell Guanzi, let's talk about it first." ”
Then I saw Biliu digging in his arms, and finally took it out, it was a few silver tickets, with different denominations, handed to Qingyan and said: "Girl, this is the money for those drawings to sell, the complete set of drawings is one hundred taels, a single hosta, step shake, bracelets, necklaces are generally ten taels to fifty taels, and the price varies." ”
After that, Biliu took a breath and said with a brighter smile: "The shopkeeper of Chu Yuge said that the owner intends to hire a girl to be the drawing painter of Chu Yuge, as for the salary, it is naturally not as much as it is now, and it is better to be stable, I don't know what the girl wants?" ”
Qing Yan didn't think about refusing and said, "I won't be a painter of Chu Yuge." ”
Bi Liu heard the expression that I knew the girl would refuse, and continued to speak: "Girl, if you don't be a painter, Chu Yuge's owner wants to sign a contract with the girl, and Chu Yuge buys the girl's drawings at a high price, no matter how much, and restricts the girl from selling the drawings to other jewelry shops, what does the girl think?" ”
Qingyan thought about it for a while, he will open his own shop in the future, the contract here is generally lifelong, and he is not suitable to sign a lifelong contract.
After a while, Qingyan's eyes were shining, and he said: "The next time I go to deliver the drawings, tell the shopkeeper of Chu Yuge that I agree to sign the contract, but the contract is valid for two years, and whether to renew the contract after two years will be discussed by the two parties." This is very similar to the modern labor contract, and it also protects the rights and interests in the future.
After that, Qingyan seemed to think of something and said, "What's the bad thing?" ”
When Biliu heard this, she smiled and said: "The girl saw a big scene on the street today, and the eldest lady's dowry shop, Moxiangfang, was approached by someone and said it was a fake!" He winked playfully as he spoke.
Qingyan saw that Biliu was talking about a bad thing, and the smile on his face clearly implied that the slave maid was talking about a happy event.
The corners of Qingyan's mouth curled unconsciously, and he secretly said in his heart, Chu Zishuo moved very fast, after discussing with Chu Zishuo that night, Chu Zishuo only said as soon as possible, I didn't expect it to be so fast, it's really good.
Seeing the smile on the corner of Qingyan's mouth, Biliu continued smugglingly: "Girl, guess who came to the door?" ”
Seeing Bi Liu's clear face like this, he knew that this scene was very interesting, and he raised his hand and knocked Bi Liu's head again, his eyes blinked and urged: "Tell me who it is." ”
Biliu touched his forehead and said, "It's Steward Li from Jingbei Houfu." ”
At this point, Qingyan's bright eyes darkened, and the smile on the corner of his mouth became shallow, and he thought it was a relative of the emperor, although the Jingbei Houfu was bigger than the Yong'an Hou Mansion, it was only a Hou Mansion after all, and it would not be too embarrassing for the eldest lady.
Seeing Qingyan's slightly disappointed expression, Bi Liu continued: "Prince Ping has inquired about the ancient paintings of that famous family for several months, and Jingbei Hou bought them at a high price of 2,500 taels in Moxiangfang, and gave them to Prince Ping, and Prince Ping was very satisfied. At this point, Biliu paused.
Seeing that the corners of Qingyan's mouth gradually hooked, Biliu continued: "On that day, Prince Ping invited several ministers to taste the painting, and Qi Guogong pointed out that the painting was a fake on the spot, and Prince Ping was furious. ”
Hearing this, Qingyan's gloomy expression completely cleared, and he raised his hand again and knocked on Biliu's forehead, still knocking hard, and said, "Let you sell Guanzi." ”
Qingyan secretly thought, provoked Prince Ping and Jingbei Hou This time the eldest lady has to be busy for a while, hmph, the next thing is to keep Lin Qingxin busy, it is best to let Lin Qingyun and Lin Qingyi also be busy, save yourself from having something to do, and you have to find a way to deal with it, and delay your own career.
Qingyan's eyes rolled, and this girl didn't say one thing, so she looked at Biliu fixedly and didn't speak.
Seeing this, Biliu said: "Today, the envoys of the alliance with the southern country and the envoys of the Dongzhao peace talks enter Beijing, and it is said that they will make peace, and Kyoto may be lively." ”
Qingyan thinks in his heart, and kiss? Do you want to stuff Lin Qingxin over? If it is stuffed, it will be done once and for all, thinking about it and sighing, if it is a man who is close to him, he must be noble, Lin Qingxin is afraid that a fortress like this will harm others, and after thinking about it, he shook his head secretly.
Biliu saw that her girl was happy for a while, sighed for a while, and shook her head for a while, and unconsciously took two steps back, a little overwhelmed, not knowing which words she said made the girl unhappy.
Seeing this, Qing Yan smiled slightly and said, "You go down first." ”
