Plus thanks MD12 for the reward

Two chapters in one

……

Waiting for the begging feast to end?

How long will it take?

Zhao Qing frowned, but didn't say anything in his mouth.

Xia Zhu didn't do it.

I really don't have a backache when I stand and talk.

You live in Shizhou Mansion, the official wife, every day at ease, it doesn't matter if it's morning or night, they can press more than 700 tons of peaches that rot in the blink of an eye!

If you say your identity generously, just let them push tomorrow and wait for them today, who knows what kind of heart they will press?

Are they dragging them back for the Min family?

Faintly, Xia Zhu also felt that the lady's background was unusual.

However, after following Zhao Qing for many years, I have heard and seen the fierceness in Zhao Qing's bones that is not afraid of strength, and Xia Zhu is no longer the little girl she was back then.

"Miss Cui'er doesn't know, we still have nearly 200 carts of peaches, even the dart master with hundreds of coachmen, people eat horses to feed, delay a day, is a few hundred taels of silver, and Cui'er also knows that doing business is an opportunity, and in a few days, the peaches in Nanzhou should also come down, if you can't sell the peaches before this, when the local peaches come, the price will plummet immediately!"

The tone that was neither soft nor hard was like an invisible slap, thrown straight on Cui'er's face.

Cui'er's face flushed.

"My wife also knows the difficulties of the third grandmother...... her tone suddenly softened, "I originally said that I would come this morning, but my wife wanted to contact a few big fruit merchants for the third grandmother." It's been delayed until now......"

Help her connect with clients?

A hint of surprise flashed in Zhao Qing's eyes, and she quietly looked into Cui'er's eyes.

Cui'er's face turned even redder.

“…… The housekeeper personally went to a few big fruit stores in the morning, and everyone was warned by the Min family. Don't dare to get into your peaches at all. She sighed, "The third grandmother may not know that an uncle of the second master of Min Ji Guoxing's sect worships the Shaoqing of Guanglu Temple, although the official rank is not high, but because he is in charge of the court meals, he has dealings with the princes and princesses of the inner palace, and has a deep background. Even my lord didn't dare to offend easily. She looked at Zhao Qing, "My wife told the third grandmother not to worry, wait for the begging banquet to end." She will help her wife find a way to see if she can reconcile with the Min family? ”

Guanglu Temple Shaoqing?

Zhao Qing's heart sighed.

No wonder Yang Ziqian hurriedly sent a letter to make him wait.

He is also afraid that she will offend the Min family rashly without knowing the roots, right?

It's a pity that she has already offended.

"Madame has a heart." Thinking that the Yang family had been involved in the business of the Ministry of Internal Affairs since last year, and eighty percent of it was probably recommended by the Min family, Zhao Qing nodded. "I'll stay two more days."

Seemingly. She had to wait for Yang Ziqian to come over.

Cui'er breathed a sigh of relief.

After talking for a while, the two walked out of the private room hand in hand, and Miao Hanqing and his wife were taking a wooden horse to coax Fu Ge'er to play at the door of the inn.

Seeing Zhao Qing coming down, Mrs. Miao was busy dragging Brother Fu.

Brother Fu was stunned, and then ran over, "Mother, mother!" ”

Flashing big black eyes looked at Cui'er.

"This is the son of Shen Sanye?" Looking at the picturesque little face of the pink carved jade in front of her, Cui'er liked it very much. "It's so good-looking!"

"His name is Brother Fu." Zhao Qing pointed to Cui'er and introduced, "It's Aunt Cui'er." ”

"Aunt Cui'er!" The sound is crisp and bright. Brother Fu didn't squirm at all, and grinned at Cui'er.

Two small dimples are exposed, which is cute.

Cui'er felt the entire hall light up for a moment.

She looked in a trance for a while, and then took off a jasper bracelet from her wrist and handed it to Fu Ge'er.

"I didn't know that Brother Fu was also in the inn, and my aunt didn't prepare, so this is for you."

Fu Ge'er turned his head to look at Zhao Qing.

This gift is a bit valuable.

Zhao Qing hesitated, then smiled and said, "...... Thank you, Auntie. ”

"Thank you, Aunt Cui'er!"

While fiddling with the bracelet, Brother Fu leaned on Zhao Qing's ear and whispered, "...... Aunt Miao asked Aunt Cui'er if she could get an invitation? ”

Begging banquet invitations?

Zhao Qing's body froze, and she looked up at Mrs. Miao.

Mrs. Miao was wincing at her.

After teasing Brother Fu'er, Cui'er was about to say goodbye, and when she looked up, she saw this scene.

was so frightened that Mrs. Miao's movements suddenly froze.

And one of the fingers she stuck to her side was still slightly upturned and pointed at Cui'er, her mouth was half-open and half-closed, and she looked very funny.

Cui'er blinked blankly, and she suddenly turned her head to look at Zhao Qing.

I saw Zhao Qingzheng frowning.

"What's the matter?" Cui'er asked.

The small action was discovered, and Brother Fu grinned.

simply buried his little face on his mother's shoulder, pretending to be stupid.

Finally closing her mouth, Mrs. Miao's face turned red and she looked at Zhao Qing with a blank look.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

If someone else was here, she would have begged Cui'er in person.

In front of Zhao Qing, Mrs. Miao didn't dare.

A blue invitation is worth 5,000, this favor is too heavy, and tomorrow's begging banquet is just a blind date party, what happiness is there in such a fate...... Zhao Qing felt that it was not worth it.

I was going to shake my head and refuse.

I didn't want to, but I was broken by Cui'er, so Zhao Qing didn't want to refuse again.

She turned her head calmly, looked at Cui'er, and said generously, "...... I heard that Mrs. also helped prepare the begging banquet, I wonder if I can get an invitation to the begging banquet? ”

"A beggar invitation?" Cui'er's eyes widened, "Third Grandma wants to participate in tomorrow's begging banquet?" ”

She, participated?

Zhao Qing remembered the embarrassment of being forced to make poems at the Begonia Poetry Meeting in Guyan Town three years ago.

Suddenly a layer of goosebumps appeared all over his body.

"No......" she hurriedly shook her head, a rare trace of panic flashed in her eyes, "It's Mrs. Miao's daughter, the clothes and jewelry are ready, but the quota has been cancelled......" She briefly explained Miao Jinyao's situation.

I didn't hear Zhao Qing's explanation.

Cui'er stared at herself, looking at Zhao Qing with a beautiful face without blinking.

Zhao Qing subconsciously touched his face. It can't be a flower growing on her face, right?

"Miss Cui'er!" She screamed.

“…… That's a great idea! Coming back to her senses, Cui'er muttered to herself, her expression suddenly corrected. Third grandma wait a minute, I'll go back and ask Madame! As he spoke, without waiting for Zhao Qing to respond, he had already hurriedly walked out.

What's a good idea?

Looking at Cui'er's back, Zhao Qing was inexplicable.

Mrs. Miao walked over with a sneered face.

"Third grandmother, don't be angry, I spent nearly a thousand taels of silver to buy a trip for Jin Yao, I am really unwilling. Just ......," she stumbled as she explained.

Using Brother Fu like this, Zhao Qing was very angry.

It's just that I live in the Shunlai Inn. Miao Hanqing looked at his own eyes everywhere, and treated Brother Fu like a little ancestor, especially in the afternoon, Zhao Qing also liked this straightforward speech. Some stupid women.

Now the wood is complete. I owe a favor.

There is no need to blame them anymore, and in the end, it was thankless and offended their husband and wife.

Thinking that he still had tens of thousands of taels of silver by his side, Zhao Qing said softly: "Cui'er only said that she would go back and ask, but it may not be possible, don't be happy too early." ”

Unexpectedly, Zhao Qing, who has always been intolerant of sand in his eyes, did not blame himself, and Mrs. Miao was stunned.

Then he nodded like a chicken pecking rice.

"Third grandmother, rest assured, you have done your best. Whether it succeeds or not is Jinyao's life, and we will never forget your great kindness......"

Everything that needs to be said has been said. Cheng Cheng had nothing to do with her, so Zhao Qing turned around and went back to the private room.

After counting the silver that Cui'er brought, he beckoned Li Wei to seal it and put it away, and he was already in charge of the lamp.

Gu Changsheng came back with a half-carriage of peaches.

“…… It took a full day to sell one and a half cars. He looked at Zhao Qing depressedly, "You can't sell a few catties at all in such a small fight, and the third grandmother still has to find those big fruit merchants." ”

Zhao Qing's face was also very ugly.

She didn't expect that the backstage of the Min family was actually the Shaoqing of Guanglu Temple who could have a relationship with the prince and princess!

No wonder she was tossed like this, and the Min family didn't show a trace of timidity.

It turns out that they don't care at all!

He simply wanted to crush himself to death by forceful means and take the initiative to bow to him and surrender!

It's all too simple to think about yourself.

The Min family has such a strong background, if one is not handled well, even Yang Ziqian's business in the capital will be implicated, even if he goes to Zhongzhou, this peach may not be able to be sold.

This matter is really a bit of a prick.

Could it be that you really bow your head like this?

Just as I was thinking about it, there was a commotion outside the door.

Miao Hanqing and his wife brought in a sweet-looking little maid wearing a goose yellow bikina.

“…… The slave's name is Brother Parrot, Sister Cui'er has something to do, so let the slave send the invitation card of the third grandmother! ”

The little maid respectfully blessed Zhao Qing, and looked at Zhao Qing quietly.

When he saw a stunning face in the dim candlelight, Brother Parrot gasped.

It's beautiful!

No wonder the reputation is so loud.

After a long moment of trance, Brother Parrot took out a golden invitation card from his sleeve and handed it over.

"Golden Invitation!"

It turned out to be a golden invitation with no price for 10,000 taels of silver!

Miao Hanqing and his wife both exclaimed in surprise.

The gaze that looked at the invitation was blue and wow, like a wolf that had been hungry for a few days and saw a fat lamb.

Brother Parrot couldn't help but be a little secretly complacent.

"Madame said, this invitation can bring one person to tomorrow's begging banquet, and Grandma Shen San can take whoever she wants!" She chuckled.

Can you bring one person?

Can she not go?!

"Let the eldest lady go by herself!" Thinking of the embarrassment of being forced to compose poems and lyrics, Zhao Qing felt numb, and casually threw the invitation to Mrs. Miao.

"How's that going to work!"

Mrs. Miao hurriedly caught the invitation that was casually thrown over by Zhao Qing.

"Be careful, this is more than 10,000 taels of silver!"

After carefully checking it for a long time, he couldn't put it down and looked at it again, and finally reluctantly handed it back to Zhao Qing.

"Brother Parrot said when she left, this golden invitation is very precious, the holder is arranged in the chief position, the name has long been decided, and if you want to change people, you have to find the owner of Begonia to modify it."

Thinking of Brother Parrot's words, Zhao Qing's little face twitched.

It's not that I'm worried about changing my name, but the sincerity of the other party to treat me can't be easily ruined.

Seeing his master so deflated for the first time, Xia Zhu covered his lips and giggled.

Thinking of the scene where Zhao Qing vigorously promoted the Begonia Poetry Conference in Guqian Town three years ago, Xia Zhu opened his mouth and said, "...... The third grandmother will go, this is a great time to sell peaches! ”

Going to a beggar feast to sell?

Zhao Qing's eyes lit up, and Hou Di darkened again.

"Forget it, it's not appropriate for me to go on this kind of blind date!" After all, she is a widowed woman, and it is good to say that it is not good to say.

Blind date?

What is this, what metaphor?

The first time I heard this word, everyone's eyes widened in astonishment.

Poof......

Mrs. Miao squirted out all the tea in one gulp.

"Phase...... Blind date...... Will ......" She covered her stomach, laughed while pointing at Zhao Qing, and it took a long time to say a complete sentence, "It's also up to you how you came up with it!" ”

Everyone giggled.

Suddenly found that she was in a hurry, and actually spoke modern language, Zhao Qing's cheeks were slightly hot, but the expression on her face remained unchanged, she glanced at Mrs. Miao, "There is no treasure to make a prize...... Everyone is still rushing to participate, isn't it just to be able to be photographed by nobles from the capital and marry a good mother-in-law! ”

That's right.

Thinking that she spared no expense to let her daughter participate, it was indeed just to find her a good in-law, Mrs. Miao was suddenly dumbfounded.

The room was quiet.

Xia Zhu slapped him, "Oh, what kind of clothes is the third grandmother wearing tomorrow." ”

Their clothes are all half-new, especially for the convenience of riding in the carriage, and those that are a little cumbersome and fancy have been left in Jianing County.

None of the ones you brought with you were suitable for a solemn occasion like a begging feast.

An ordinary invitation card has been fried to five thousand taels, and you can imagine how solemn the occasion will be tomorrow.

Xia Zhu was about to cry in a hurry.

Zhao Qing remembered the event he missed three years ago.

That night, in order to prepare clothes for her, Chi Feng and Yang Ziqian smashed open all the shops, and she also had a hint of eagerness to try this.

The same banquet, the same scene, but without the back she expected.

Inexplicably, Zhao Qing was in a trance.

Three years

It's really not long.

It's just that the flower blooms three times and falls three times.

However, the expectation in my heart has long been in the vicissitudes of life.

"Forget it, I'm just going to respond to the scene, and I don't need to dress up like a little girl......" Swinging away the inexplicable loss that suddenly appeared in his heart, Zhao Qing called Xia Zhu, who was spinning around with his hands, "Just wear that lilac pigment makeup gown, with a strip ......"

"How can that be?" Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Mrs. Miao, "Even if you look handsome and look good in anything, you can't be perfunctory on that occasion tomorrow, you have to make a new set no matter what!" ”

"Is it too late to do it now?" Sister-in-law Zhou asked.

"It's too late to be normal, the third grandmother is lucky, the rules of the begging banquet have been changed today, and I am afraid that half of the customized clothes of many people who can't go will not pick them up......"

Before, she wanted to return her daughter's set to the embroidery workshop to sell on her behalf.

No way, the clothes are too expensive.

"Let's pick a set of good styles, and let the embroidery workshop change slightly according to the figure of the third grandmother, which is definitely urgent." As he spoke, he lifted his leg and walked out, "You don't care about all this, it's all wrapped up in me!" ”

Bai gave her daughter a place for a begging banquet, Zhao Qing didn't ask for anything, but she couldn't pretend to be confused!

As soon as he walked to the door, the shopkeeper brought a large group of people to hula and walked up. (To be continued.) )
