Chapter Twenty-Five: Beginning a Career
After the carbonated drink was prepared, instant noodles and fried chicken were made one after another, which were rare foods in ancient times.
Once launched, it was an absolute hit.
I couldn't wait to go to Xinxiangyuan and call a few people to help make a large number of these rare foods.
After discussing with Jiang Yi, he named the carbonated drink fairy water, the instant noodles as Yao-style instant noodles, and the fried chicken as love at first sight.
There is also a legend about fairy water: in ancient times, a man and a woman dated, but because the family was enemies for generations, they were forced to separate.
The man could not bear the pain of this parting and jumped off the cliff to his death, and his bones were gone; When the woman found out, she also hanged herself.
Later, it was rumored that someone saw the two of them flying around in the sky like fairy daughters
Because they had a big river there, and the children there grew up drinking the water of that river, so it is rumored that the two of them drank the water before they died before they became immortals and flew around in the sky.
……
This legend has been widely spread since Xu Yao sold the fairy water.
Even the more it spreads, the more outrageous it becomes, some say that they drink beauty and beauty, and some say that they drink immortality.
Under the pressure of public opinion, Xu Yao asked the big shopkeeper to come forward and explain that these were rumors.
Seeing that the snack bar he opened in Xinxiang Courtyard is becoming more and more prosperous, I am also very gratified.
Because he signed a contract with Jiang Yi to open a store in his place, all the money earned by Xu Yao's store was seventy-three, and of course it was the same if he lost money.
As a result, Xu Yao felt that she didn't make much money and was not satisfied, so she also rented a shop next door to Xinxiangyuan and opened a second chain store, and the business was also full.
When she first opened the store, she also worked in the store for a while because she didn't have enough to get started, and after training the new employees, she gave up.
The time is spent researching new and exotic foods, except for going to the store every month when the money is collected, and the rest of the time is given to the shopkeeper of each store.
After more than a month of hard work, I can finally have a good rest.
"Qiao'er, prepare the bath water, I'm going to bathe!"
Xu Yao didn't change her clothes when she returned to the house, and she didn't want to move on the bed without removing her makeup.
If it weren't for the uncomfortable stickiness on her body, she probably wouldn't even want to bathe.
It was very comfortable to soak in the bathtub, and I was still asleep, and when I woke up, I was already lying on the bed, Xu Qiao'er did this.
"Qiao'er!"
Xu Yao sat up, looked at the nowhere of Qiao'er around him and shouted his name, but no one replied, so he got up to check.
I looked around for Qiao'er's accommodation next to it, but I didn't get anything.
Realizing that she might be in danger, he was in a hurry to look around.
Finally, I heard the sound of sobbing in a hidden forest, and when I walked in, it was Qiao'er, crying pitifully.
"What's wrong? Oops~ Poor little girl, who bullied you? Xu Yao stepped forward distressedly and hugged Xiao Qiao'er in her arms and comforted.
"It's okay... Uh-huh... Hmm..."I've been crying for so long that I can't stop it, and I'm still sobbing.
"It's okay, you tell Miss, Miss will avenge you!"
Xu Yao looked at Qiao'er, who was obviously uncomfortable and wanted to die, but still refused to say whose it was, and vaguely guessed who it was.
"It's the eldest lady, she said that even if the eldest lady dies, she is still the eldest lady of the Xu Mansion, we all have to listen to her, the slave maid really didn't take her things, that is, Miss, you rewarded the slave maid with fairy water and Yao-style instant noodles a few days ago, and the eldest lady said that the slave stole it." The more Qiao'er spoke, the more aggrieved she became, and she began to sob again.
Sure enough, it was her, I guessed correctly, I knew how she could suddenly go crazy, it turned out to be pretending, it was really bold!
I was going to let her go, but I didn't expect her hand to stretch out too long.
In that case, don't blame her!
"Okay, okay, don't cry, be good~ Let's go home, wash our faces, sleep well, and wake up and be fine." Xu Yao put away her fierce eyes and looked at Qiao'er's eyes with gentle and loving eyes.
"Hmm... What about you, Miss? Qiao'er looked at Xu Yao with red eyes and grievances.
"Me, I still have some things, you go back first, don't cry, you'll become a crying little cat." Xu Yao gently wiped the tears from her face with her own handkerchief.
"Your slave and maid will go back first, and the young lady will come back early."
Qiao'er whispered, with a little hoarseness in her tone, it was the crying that hurt her throat.
"Okay~ Let's go back." Seeing Qiao'er leave, he walked towards Xu Chengcheng's room in a menacing manner.
Of course, you can't rush in directly, smart people are the first to quietly lie out of the window to observe the situation.
"Miss, are you sure that the madness you pretended to be won't be discovered? Xiaoju is still scared... If the head of the house finds out..."
As the eldest lady's personal maid, she will definitely not be able to escape the involvement, and it is very likely that she will be strangled, because the crime of harboring in Xuan Chenguo is the same as that of a murderer, and the person who is shielded will not have anything to do if he is rich and powerful, and he will be acquitted.
Therefore, in the end, it was their lowliest slaves and maids who suffered.
"Don't worry, you won't be discovered, you can't believe your young lady's acting skills."
Xu Chengcheng confidently believed that his disguise was seamless and could never be recognized.
"But..."
Xiaoju kept clasping her hands in fear, she hadn't been married yet, she hadn't had a child yet, her future was still long, long, and she didn't want to lose her fragrance yet.
Xu Yao saw Xiao Ju's subtle movements, and the breakthrough was her.
"Oops! If you're bothered, get out! Get lost! Cheap slave! ”
Xu Tingcheng looked at Xiao Ju, who had been rambling, and his irritable heart was very unhappy, so he scolded directly.
"The eldest lady is angry, the slave and maid will get out!"
Although Xiaoju is very aggrieved, she can't cry here, she has to hold back, otherwise what awaits her is Xu Tingcheng's endless beating and scolding.
As soon as Xiao Ju closed the door and turned her back, tears flowed down uncontrollably, and she couldn't stop it.
Xu Yao followed Xiao Ju all the way for a long time, and Xiao Ju stopped in a small dilapidated house and walked in.
Xu Yao looked at this dilapidated little dilapidated house and was surprised, an eldest lady's personal maid looked glamorous, she actually lived here, why didn't she find it before.
Taking advantage of her unpreparedness, Xu Yao attacked from behind, locked her in time, so that she had no power to fight back, and covered her mouth so that she could not ask for help.
"Hmm... Not... Who is it! The mouth was covered, and two words could be faintly heard.
"I, Xu Yao!" Xu Yao was so fearless that she directly reported her name, and she didn't dare to go out and talk nonsense.
She won't tell Xu Tingcheng that because her life can't be protected now, then she won't be doing her duty for Xu Tingcheng.
"I'll let you go, you can't scream, I'll kill you if I don't let me!"
Xu Yao aimed a sharp knife at her thin neck, as if blood would gush out in the next second.
Xiao Ju nodded in fear, and could feel her body shaking.
"What does Miss need Xiaoju to do?" She is smart and immediately understands Xu Yao's intentions.
"I want you to appear in court at the yamen in a few days to testify that your eldest lady is pretending to be insane," Xu Yao didn't like to beat around the bush either, and directly said what she meant this time.
"What does Miss think, the slave and maid will rebel against the master, maybe as soon as you leave, the slave and maid will immediately go and tell the eldest lady!" Xiao Ju asked suspiciously.
"Just rely on your eldest lady to give up your chess piece at any time, and I will guarantee that your life is not in danger!"
Xu Yao is so confident, she is a drama chaser who has watched countless palace fighting dramas and costume dramas.
It's all experience!
"Can it really protect my life?" Xiao Ju seemed to see a glimmer of hope and desperately wanted to seize it.
"Well, I, Xu Yao, never tell lies!" Xu Yao said with a serious face.
"Good!"
Xiao Ju finally agreed, after all, her life was more important.
"Three days later, you appeared as a witness at the bottom of my pressure box above the yamen, and you couldn't tell anyone about it during this period, and then you continued to serve Xu Qingcheng, don't show your feet, as usual, do you know?" Xu Yaozai instructed carefully, for fear that something would go wrong.
"Miss Obedience!"
Xiao Ju replied respectfully.
"Well, then I'll go first, you remember, don't show your feet!"
Xu Yao instructed again when she left, which shows that she is really afraid of making mistakes.
"Got it, miss, don't worry!" Xiao Ju has an expression on her face, you want to believe me.
"Okay, then I'm leaving!"
When Xu Yao finished speaking, when he walked to the door, he checked that there was no one around to watch, and left quickly.
After going back, he began to prepare to expose Xu Tingcheng's crime of bullying his father, in this country, this is no less than the crime of bullying the king! And the filthy affair between her and the guards, the sin of chaos, any one of which can be punished by five horses.
Seriously endangering the country will also implicate the nine clans, so this Xu Yao must pay attention to it, and he must put aside the relationship between Xu Qingcheng and other people in the mansion.
The gold finger as an exchange allows the system to find all kinds of favorable evidence and witnesses, but because the system is too stingy, all the gold finger uses cannot be found in exchange.
There is still a need to check the remaining evidence by himself, and at this time Jiang Yi comes in handy, with his family's connections, he can definitely find out.
Sure enough, the remaining evidence was found the next day, and Xu Chengcheng actually killed people, it was simply lawless, and he should enter the eighteenth layer of hell!
After everything was prepared, it was the day of the trial, Xu Tingcheng was also put in shackles as a prisoner, because he walked too slowly and was pushed very vigorously by the officials, Xu Tingcheng, who was in pain, roared, and the county lord who was sitting on the upper seat slapped the sound of the hall wood angrily and said: "Above the grand hall, be quiet!" Xu Chengcheng reluctantly shut up.
"The sinner girl Xu Qingcheng can be convicted!" The county lord's loud voice resounded in the sky.
"Miss Ben doesn't know what crime she has committed, and she asks the county lord to tell me." Xu Qingcheng was very arrogant when he died.
"Bold! How dare you be so rude! The official behind him roared, and Xu Qingcheng was frightened.
"It's okay, since you still don't admit your guilt, then go to the witness!" The county lord shouted, and immediately a masked woman came up from the side of the crowd.
"The county lord has to be the master of the people's women!" The masked woman began to cry as soon as she entered the courtroom.
"If you tell me carefully, this official will deal with it impartially!" The county lord is a well-known parent official, and he is a good official.
"It's this poisonous girl, because she is dissatisfied with the clothes I made, she actually asked her subordinates to burn down my shop, you look at my back, look at my face, it has been burned beyond recognition."
The woman wept and removed the cloth that covered her face, and the skin and flesh of the lower half of her face and neck, which were not burned, were all connected, and none of the pieces on her back were good.
"Oh my God! And there is no royal law! This vicious woman, looking beautiful, is so vicious in her heart! ”
"This is a beautiful girl who has just reached the age of marriage, and she is so vicious."
"It's horrible!"
"This is the famous Miss Xu family, I don't think her little sister Xu Yao is kind."
The crowd watching outside the yamen began to make all sorts of angry remarks.
"A bunch of people are all shut up for me!" Xu Tingcheng knew that he couldn't get it back, so he simply stopped hiding his true character and began to scold.
Instantly, there was silence outside the yamen, although there was still a small sound, but it was much better than the noise just now.
"Why didn't I burn you to death at that time!" Xu Tingcheng cursed directly, she had already broken the jar.
