Chapter 64: Shocking Horses
 : : : : Xiao Yu told her worries one by one, and finally, Xiao Yu said: "Mother, I just asked the guys here, there is a back door in this courtyard, you can go out to Lan Kwai Fong, but I'm afraid the road is a little pickled." ”
 : : : :"Man" Mrs. sighed slightly, and then instructed the man: "There are many people today, several of us are women, let's rest here first, and when there are fewer people, we will go to Lan Kwai Fong, you can bring a few more horses and new materials, and we will choose by the way." ”
 : : : : When the man saw the business coming to the door, he agreed silently, and then quickly brought a few chairs for them to sit on, and brought three or four horses of silk for them to choose from.
 : : : : "I have sent someone to inform the capital government Yin, presumably soon the official will come to maintain order, let's wait a while, and then go over when there are fewer people", Mrs. Qi Pan Xiaoyu said while looking at the material.
 : : : : Everyone sat for a while, and Zi Yan asked the store for well water to make tea for everyone. Suddenly, the sound of firecrackers was heard not far ahead, followed by the neighing of horses, mixed with the screams and cries of pain from men, women, and children. Xiaoyu stood up suddenly. Is it really shocking?
 : : : : Fortunately, within a few minutes, the horse suddenly neighed in pain and was silent, and the exclamations of the people were quiet.
 : : : :The three of them sat on their chairs in disbelief, and Xiaoyu was about to tell Bai Fu to go out to see what was going on, when a guard hurriedly walked in and reported: "Tell Madame, I don't know who threw a firecracker at our carriage from the crowd, causing the horse to startle." Fortunately, the second lady ordered us to lean the carriage against the wall as much as possible, and the guards also shrank near the carriage to separate the people. As soon as the horse was startled, the commander hacked the horse to death, causing no major accident. ”
 : : : : Madame and Xiaoyu were shocked when they heard the guard's report, "Are there any casualties?" Madame and Xiaoyu both asked at the same time.
 : : : :The guard shook his head and said, "Because of the timely response, there were no casualties among the people around, but the old king who was driving the car fell from his horse and may have broken his leg." ”
 : : : :When Madame heard this, she clasped her hands together and muttered, "Amitabha, Bodhisattva bless, it's good that you don't hurt the people." You find a way to send Lao Wang to a nearby doctor to have a look, so that he can recuperate from his injuries and pay his monthly money as he wants, so he doesn't have to worry. ”
 : : : :After the guards left, Madame and Qi Pan breathed a sigh of relief.
 : : : :"Fortunately, today Xiaoyu is prepared for a rainy day, if we are still on the carriage, surrounded by crowds, I am afraid the consequences are unimaginable, especially when the crowd panics..."
 : : : :Mrs.'s face turned pale as she spoke, and Qi Pan also exclaimed, thinking of the consequences of the people stepping on and pushing.
 : : : : "Mother, I'm afraid today's incident is not a coincidence", Xiao Yu looked at his wife and said slowly with a serious face. Qi Pan heard Xiaoyu's words, and let out another exclamation.
 : : : :Mrs. also looked at Xiao Yu in shock and said, "Xiao Yu, where did you start?" ”
 : : : :Xiao Yu said slowly: "Mother, think about it, Lan Kwai Fong is still more than half a street away from us, how did the firecrackers over there get under our carriage, if someone didn't throw it on purpose, my daughter couldn't think of the second possibility." “
 : : : :Xiao Yu paused, and then continued: "If someone didn't do it by accident, wouldn't he have thought about the consequences of the firecracker being thrown near the carriage?" What's more, the crowd is crowded today, and if that person wants to throw a firecracker without being noticed by the guards, he must have thrown it from a distance, even from the roof. So what kind of person could inadvertently throw so far and still hit our carriage right away? ”
 : : : : Xiaoyu's words made Mrs. and Qi Pan speechless.
 : : : :Xiao Yu looked at the shocked looks of the two of them, and continued: "Mother, think about it, if we don't get out of the carriage in time to escape, if I don't tell the guards to get as close to the carriage as possible. When the horse is frightened, the carriage is still surrounded by the crowd, and the guards are far away from the rescue, and I am waiting in the carriage, that situation is either the horse trampling the surrounding crowd, or we roll out of the carriage and are trampled by the horse, or even the crowd tramples on their own in order to avoid the frightened horse! Mother thought about what a human tragedy it would be if that happened! ”
 : : : :The more Xiao Yu spoke, the more sad and angry she became, she slapped the table angrily and said: "What kind of person is it, so frustrated, not to mention it, and even take so many human lives as a mustard, what are the people in their eyes?" ”
 : : : :Xiao Yu felt panicked when he thought of the feeling of being frightened when he heard the horse neighing just now.
 : : : : If it weren't for her previous inspiration and remembering some stampedes in the news reports of her previous life, there would be dozens or even hundreds of unjust souls here today, and this would be hell on earth!
 : : : :Black Hand! It must be the one behind it! That black hand didn't count when he hurt Xiaoque and Zi Yao, he still wanted to harm them, and even did not hesitate to pay for the lives of innocent people!
 : : : :The anger in Xiaoyu's chest is burning, and the burning is getting more and more intense, making her feel suffocated, making her want to look up to the sky and scream, so that she can get out of the stuffiness in her chest!
 : : : : "Mother, who the hell is it!" Who has such a great hatred that wants to put us to death! ", Xiao Yu said angrily to Mrs. Chong. The lady behind the hat shook her head, sighed and said, "Okay, Xiaoyu, it's inconvenient here, let's go back and talk about it!" “
 : : : :The little fish stomped his foot hatefully to vent his dissatisfaction. Madame is good at everything, but this indecisive nature makes her anxious.
 : : : : When Madame and Qi Pan were busy calming Xiaoyu, they suddenly heard the gong outside, and after the gong sounded, the sound of the official shouting to evacuate the crowd. It was the capital governor Yin who finally sent someone to maintain order.
 : : : :Xiaoyu stood up, walked quickly to the door, and looked out. The first of the officers in the group struck the gong and shouted the latest instructions of Lord Yin, and the rest of the officials held big sticks in their hands to disperse the gathered people.
 : : : : "Go, tell them the one at the head, the people are not wrong, just disperse, don't beat people!" Xiao Yu casually pointed to a nearby guard and said to him.
 : : : : The guard was stunned for a moment, and then stepped forward to find the person who struck the gong and shouted to the man, and the two talked for a while, and the guard also pointed to Xiaoyu. The man who struck the gong turned his face to look at Xiao Yu, then nodded and bent down to signal, and then looked for a few servants with sticks to speak.
 : : : :Xiao Yu stared at the officials who gradually stopped beating people, just dispersed the crowd, and then put his mind at ease and walked into the silk shop.
 : : : : Not long after, the Yin of the capital came in a hurry, and the sweat on his head was too late to dry. "Mrs. Hou forgives her sins, and it is too late to be humble." As soon as Fu Yin came in, he made amends to his wife in a low voice.
 : : : :Mrs. waved her hand and said: "Fortunately, there was no chaos today, otherwise you wouldn't want to be the governor of the capital, and you should pay attention to it in the future!" ”
 : : : :Fu Yin bowed and said yes, today when he heard that Hou Fu was driving a frightened horse, he was really scared out of a cold sweat.
 : : : : When his wife sent a message asking him to send a servant to maintain order, he secretly laughed at his wife's opinion that she was a woman. Unexpectedly, Madame was indeed prescient, otherwise he would not be able to escape the blame for whether it was a bad luck for the ladies of the Hou Mansion or a stampede among the onlookers. He was now secretly glad that the lady of the Hou Mansion had left the carriage early.
 : : : : Madame was too lazy to talk to Fu Yin, and when the carriage was ready, she got on the carriage and continued to Lan Kwai Fong. After this fright, Xiaoyu's heart to go to Lan Kwai Fong also faded. The whole mind is to figure out who is secretly in the dark. When he got out of the car and saw Yue Gongzi, Xiaoyu was also absent-minded.
 : : : :Yue Gongzi knew what happened to them today, and Mrs. personally apologized as soon as she got out of the car: "Madame, forgive me, Yue is still too young, this congestion problem is not well considered, so Mrs. Miss is frightened!" ”。
 : : : :Mrs. smiled: "Where is the son of Yue, fortunately there is no danger this time, thanks to Xiaoyu's careful thinking, early prevention is not possible, otherwise it will inevitably affect the pond fish!" ”。 Yue Gongzi looked at Xiao Yu in surprise. The news he received before only said that it was arranged by Madame, but now listening to Madame's tone, it turned out to be Xiaoyu's advance arrangement.
 : : : :Xiao Yu lowered his eyebrows and lowered his head to think about his thoughts, ignoring Yue Gongzi's surprised gaze. Yue Gongzi saw that Xiao Yu didn't even look at him, and his deep gaze dimmed.
 : : : :Lan Kwai Fong is surrounded by product display racks, and the first floor displays the more low-end and civilian Meganet series products; The high-end Lancôme collection is displayed on the second floor.
 : : : : The stairs on the second floor are not in the façade of the first floor, but on the side of the yard. In this way, the ladies who came to buy high-end products could drive the carriage directly to the courtyard and directly to the second floor, thus separating themselves from the low-end crowd on the first floor.
 : : : :In addition to the product display on the second floor, there is also a private room for the ladies to rest and drink tea. Opened today, anyone who buys a Lancôme set will receive a piece of osmanthus fragrance.
 : : : :Yue Gongzi arched his hand and sent his wife to the second floor, the second floor is full of female dependents, and he is inconvenient to go up.
 : : : : "Madam, the auspicious time has arrived, you can watch the ceremony on the second floor!" Yue Gongzi said when he was leaving, Xiao Yu still hung his head and thought about his thoughts, and did not look at him. Yue Gongzi's eyes became deeper and deeper, and he was still a little puzzled.
 : : : : Madame thanked Yue Gongzi and went upstairs up the stairs. The main color of the second floor is the dark pink of cardamom, and the walls are covered with various orchids and cardamom scrolls. The whole looks elegant and noble. There were already many female dependents, so Mrs. took Qi Pan and Xiaoyu to talk to the familiar lady.
 : : : :Yuegongzi has set up a lot of female receptionists on the second floor, not only to answer customers' questions at any time, but also to introduce and try some products for customers.
 : : : : Xiaoyu and a few hostesses have a chat, these hostesses are articulate, familiar with the product, and the skin looks good, it is simply a living signboard.
 : : : :Xiaoyu nodded with satisfaction, and found that Yuegongzi still has a set of business operations, no wonder he can operate such a large-scale Qinglou in Huayuelou.
