Chapter 389: The Blame Scheme
Dongxue hurriedly said: "It's not in the way, it's just a slip under your feet." ”
"Your clothes are dirty, go and change them. Here, give me something, and I'll send it to the kitchenette. Bo Xinlan said.
"How dare you bother the mother? Send the slave and maid over and change it again. "Winter snow trails.
"What's the trouble is just a few plates. I'm not from a noble lady's background, and I did these things when I was not out of the cabinet. Give it to me, you take off your clothes quickly, put soap horns on it and soak it, it's not easy to wash it with vegetable oil, don't ruin another piece of clothing when you go back. Bo Xinlan said.
"Yes." Dongxue replied and handed the tray in his hand to Bo Xinlan.
Bo Xinlan took the tray and muttered matter-of-factly: "It's hot in the house, and there is frost at night on the ground outside, and in the morning, the door is very slippery." Ming'er, you should be careful. ”
"The slave is not in the way, but the mother must be worried, don't fall...... When she turned around, the slave told Mama Jin and asked her to send someone over and put a felt blanket at the door of Niangniang's house, right? ”
"Forget it, you don't want to be too troublesome. Don't let people think that I'm picky about anything because I'm pregnant. Since no one else has it, we shouldn't have it. Okay, don't be verbose, let's go change your clothes. ”
"Yes." Dongxue answered and went to his house.
The conversation between the master and servant at the door was naturally heard clearly by Mama Wu and Jing Min in the small kitchen on the side. Although the two of them didn't say anything, they couldn't help but think in their hearts that Bo Xinlan was really kind to her little slave. And he is cautious and careful everywhere, and he is really a person who makes no mistakes.
Bo Xinlan personally removed the breakfast things, chatted with Jing Min and Mama Wu in the small kitchen, and went back to the room.
Dongxue changed her clothes and was ready to go out.
Before going out, according to Bo Xinlan's instructions, she also went to ask Jing Min and Wu Mama: "Mama, Jing Min girl, Niangniang wants to eat Zhenweitang's braised pork, I want to go to the market, do you have anything to bring?" ”
Dongxue wants to go out to buy things for her master, and others can't control it, so how can Mama Wu and Jingmin say anything? I didn't dare to let her bring anything, so I only smiled: "It's cold, girl, go and come back soon, don't freeze." ”
"Hey." Dongxue answered, and ran out happily.
It looks like a playful little girl who suddenly got the opportunity to go out shopping.
Mama Wu said with a smile: "I remember that when I first entered the palace, if the master told me to send things to a place I hadn't been to, I would be happy......
"Yes, I still remember the first time I served the palace banquet, my palms were sweating." Jing Min also smiled.
Dongxue came to ask so deliberately, and did not avoid them, and went out frankly, but did not arouse suspicion.
Out of the back door of the palace of the king, he found a remote alley, took off the outer layer of his clothes, inside, is an ordinary, slightly better material, not beautifully embroidered ordinary clothes, just like some slightly richer little families in Kyoto City Jasper is the same, people can not see that it is from the palace people at all.
In King Chen's mansion, the big girls who serve their masters wear them, and if they are taken to the market to compare with others, they still stand out from the crowd and attract people's attention.
He hid his clothes in a piece of cloth that was originally around the waist of the inner layer of clothes, tied them into a package, carried them on his shoulders, and almost trotted all the way to Linlang Pavilion.
The reception of Linlang Pavilion has always been high-ranking officials and nobles, ladies of the command, housekeepers' daughters, wealthy businessmen and the like, and when they saw her dressed in ordinary clothes, they naturally did not want to see her. There was only one guy in the house, and it was just opening in the morning, and there were no other customers in the store except her. With just the two of them, this guy didn't catch up.
Dongxue went directly to the guy and said very cautiously: "I want musk." ”
Originally, this guy didn't want to see her, but as soon as he heard her say that he wanted musk, he immediately understood the reason for her dress. I often do things in the Linlang Pavilion, who hasn't seen it? Especially some ladies and maidservants who come to find "useful things" such as musk, one by one, who is not all disguised? But the shots are quite generous.
"How much does Madame want?" The guy also whispered.
Dong Xue thought to herself, this Linlang Pavilion really lives up to its reputation, and it really has everything.
"Not too much, this thing is a scourge. You also know that if you have too much, you won't need it, but you will get into trouble", Dongxue said in a low voice, "Ten dollars, enough." ”
As soon as the man heard her say this, he knew that she had a background and was going to come in handy. Therefore, he said, "What does Madame want?" ”
"Okay."
"Ten pennies and one hundred and twenty taels of silver." The guy said the price directly.
Dongxue was shocked when she heard this, thinking that this thing is so expensive! It is said that Linlang Pavilion is not a place that ordinary people can afford, and if you look at a random thing, you can't afford to buy it even if you are bankrupt. If you accidentally bump into something, I'm afraid that it won't be enough to pay for it with your life.
The man also knows that the people who come to buy this kind of thing are the owners who do not lack money, but only care about the things. So I overreported forty taels and wanted to swallow it myself.
Dongxue knew that Bo Xinlan would not come to Linlang Pavilion to ask in person, so this piece of musk, she said how much it was when she went back, it was as much. But now Bo Xinlan only gave her one hundred taels of silver, but this musk cost one hundred and twenty taels, and the money is not enough, how can there be a chance to swallow some?
"What about the slightly inferior ones?" Dongxue asked.
In the end, it was the guy from Linlang Pavilion, even if he heard Dong Xue ask, he didn't immediately put down his face, but still said politely: "There are only two kinds of musk in our Linlang Pavilion. Even the ones that are a little worse are sold as treasures by the spice merchants outside. Slightly worse, ten dollars and eighty taels. ”
But I also know that this is a master who can't afford much money, so this time, I only overreported twenty taels.
Hurry up, he is the only one in the shop, and if he can sell ten taels more, it is equivalent to earning ten taels for nothing. Therefore, I just want to complete this business quickly, but I am not greedy.
Dongxue naturally couldn't decide which one to want so happily, but said: "Is it convenient for me to take a look at these two goods?" So that I can make a decision. ”
"Ma'am, you'll be ...... later," the man said, and then looked down at the counter behind him to look for something.
Thinking about making this business as soon as possible, it is natural to be quick with your hands and feet.
In a short time, two delicate boxes had been taken out, and inside were two musks of two colors.
Dongxue asked, "Which one is in good condition?" ”
"This." The guy pointed to the left-hand one.
Dong Xue said: "I want this, and I will give you ninety taels of silver and ten coins." ”
"Yo ......," the man was about to say, "Ma'am, where are you here?" What about the stalls? ”
But when the words came to his lips, when he thought about it, ten taels of silver would be the money he got for nothing, so don't be verbose, hurry up and earn it steadily.
So he quickly weighed ten dollars of musk, and knew that this thing should be hidden, so he just wrapped it in a piece of paper and handed it to her respectfully.
Dongxue handed the silver ticket to the buddy, and the guy found her ten taels of silver.
Carrying ten taels of silver and musk, Dongxue quickly walked out of Linlang Pavilion.
In this way, when she went back, she said to Bo Xinlan that the musk of ten coins was ninety-eight taels of silver. gave Bo Xinlan the two taels of silver in her money bag, and she swallowed the eight taels herself. Find some for Bo Xinlan, not to let Bo Xinlan feel that she swallowed it, she also has to make money, the best of both worlds.
Quickly walked to Zhenweitang, bought some braised meat, borrowed a thatched house in Zhenweitang, changed clothes, and hurried back to the palace with braised meat.
She walked at a fast pace all the way, and in Linlang Pavilion, the business was done quickly, and it was no different from walking slowly to Zhenweitang and coming back slowly.
Back in Yilan Courtyard, Jing Min and Mama Wu were still busy in the small kitchen. The dim sum in the palace is very difficult to make, and it is the most draining, and Jing Min and Mama Wu have to work for two hours at the earliest.
Dongxue entered the house and handed the musk and two taels of silver, as well as the one penny left over from buying braised meat, to Bo Xinlan.
Bo Xinlan didn't take the rest of the silver, and said, "You take it." It's not easy to buy this thing. On weekdays, I didn't smash the hundred taels of silver, and the yard was used a lot, and I didn't reward you with anything. Don't be too little, you will slowly get better in the future, my side is rich, and you will definitely be indispensable. ”
Dongxue was very grateful to accept Bo Xinlan's reward, and did not sneer.
In this way, it is equivalent to earning ten taels of silver.
In fact, she is not a short-sighted person who covets money, but no one will be too much for money. If you don't take the money when it has been delivered to you, will you not be sorry for it? If it's safe to do so, you can earn more, and who doesn't want to earn more?
Bo Xinlan just held her breath, opened the musk and looked at it, then quickly put it away and handed it to Dongxue: "Take it far away, don't let me smell it." ”
Winter Snow took the musk and quickly stuffed it into her clothes. Knowing that Bo Xinlan was afraid of this thing, and Mama Wu and Jing Min couldn't come back for a while, they went back to change their clothes first, and hid Musk in her room by the way.
I changed my clothes inside, hid the musk, and then came back to my life.
Bo Xinlan opened the braised pork and let Dongxue sit down to eat it together. Dongxue knew that Bo Xinlan was for the convenience of speaking, so she didn't shirk it, and sat down opposite Bo Xinlan with her body leaning over.
The master and servant looked like they were eating braised pork, and Bo Xinlan listened attentively to the sound of the door, and at the same time told Dongxue her plans......
