Chapter 21: Give her a slap in the face

In the next few days, Qin Chaojiu almost squandered all the money in his hand.

In addition to the restaurant on the first day, there was a tailor's shop, a rouge shop, and an inn one after another.

Shen Yajun accompanied Qin Chaojiu all the way, and was very surprised to see her hammer in the east and a stick in the west.

Although her family is not a businessman's family, she also knows how to do business, if it is not to a certain extent, she must not be involved in all walks of life, but should strive for excellence in one of the industries.

"Second Miss Qin, why did you buy these shops that have no connection with each other, and how should you manage them in the future?"

Qin Chaojiu hooked his lips slightly, chuckled and asked rhetorically, "Is there no contact?" ”

"What's the connection?" Shen Yajun asked suspiciously.

Qin Chao smiled for a long time, these shops seemed to have nothing to do with each other on the surface, but they were all shops that she had carefully verified and belonged to the Yongchang Marquis Mansion.

If her prediction is good, these shops will one day become Qin Jingxi's dowry.

She doesn't mind Qin Jingxi occupying the magpie's nest for many years, after all, she was just a baby at the beginning, and right or wrong has nothing to do with her.

But in order to deal with the people around her who implicated her, she couldn't help but care.

Qin Chaojiu's gaze lightly fell on Zhujie's right leg.

On that day, the bamboo was extremely seriously injured, if it weren't for the countless prescriptions stored in her mind, I was afraid that the current bamboo was still lying on the bed, and she would have a lifetime of sequelae.

She was never one to swallow her anger.

If anyone thinks that she is really that easy to bully, they are very wrong.

"Tiny ...... Miss! This, this, this...... You can't go to this kind of place! ”

Walking and walking, Qin Chaojiu actually took Shen Yajun to the door of a green building full of rouge, Zhu Jie immediately grabbed Qin Chaojiu's hand and was about to retreat back, Shen Yajun and her little maid also showed an embarrassed face in an instant.

"How did you get here?" Shen Yajun only cared about chatting with Qin Chao for a long time, but he didn't pay attention for a while, and actually walked to Hualiu Alley.

Qin Chaojiu said with a smile: "I'm going to come here to find someone." ”

As soon as Qin Chaojiu's words fell, a woman with a disheveled hair ran out of it, and a tall and strong man behind him grabbed the woman's hair with one hand and knocked the person to the ground.

The little maid and bamboo behind Shen Yajun screamed at the same time.

Shen Yajun's maid hid behind Shen Yajun.

Zhu Jie screamed as he pulled Qin Chaojiu behind her.

Shen Yajun's heart trembled slightly, but she couldn't help but lose her temper, until she was startled when she saw the appearance of the woman on the ground.

"Umeizhi? Are you a plum branch? ”

The beating man stopped, looked up at the two young ladies in front of him, and showed a wicked smile on his face: "Two young ladies, do you know her?" A few days ago, I was sold to our Chunyi Xiang Soft Building, disobedient, under-trained, disturbed the two young ladies, please forgive me. ”

He said forgiveness, but when he looked at Qin Chaojiu and Shen Yajun's eyes, he looked unscrupulous.

The embarrassed Mei Zhi raised her head from the ground and knelt in front of Shen Yajun, but was kicked out by Shen Yajun's little maid.

"Anything dirty, dare to come to our young lady, get away."

Although the little maid was afraid, it could be seen that the strong man had stopped beating people, so she rushed up boldly.

But they must not be touched by this kind of indiscriminate Qinglou women.

Mei Zhi was like a drowning person, reaching out to grab Shen Yajun's skirt: "Miss Shen Wu, please save me, please save me, although the slave has done something wrong, she will not die of sin, please save me!" ”

"You were betrayed by the Yongchang Marquis Mansion?" Shen Yajun was surprised.

Mei Zhi is the big girl next to Qin Jingxi, and she has always been Qin Jingxi's favorite person, how could she sell it well.

Shen Yajun subconsciously turned his eyes to look at Qin Chaojiu.

But seeing Qin Chaojiu, he said with a smile: "Mei Zhi, you might as well beg me if you beg her, I came to find you on purpose." ”

Mei Zhi was scared, especially when he saw the bamboo knots on the side, and he was even more frightened.

"You, have you come to me for revenge? I've come to this point, what are you dissatisfied with? Even if you want revenge, you shouldn't come to me. ”

Qin Chaojiu's eyes had a faint look of contempt, and she said slowly in a cold voice: "As you said, there is a debtor who is wronged, so I specially came to ask you, did you really want to target me that day?" And the day before the palace banquet, you want to hit me with a vase, is that also your own intention? ”

Mei Zhi's heart instantly lifted, and she stared at Qin Chaojiu in a daze, her eyes kept turning.

The corners of Qin Chaojiu's mouth hooked slightly: "I want to know the truth, if you are willing to tell me the truth, I can give you fifty taels of silver, so that your life can be a little better." ”

Mei Zhi opened her mouth almost without hesitation and said, "I said! I can tell you everything you want to know, but fifty taels is not enough, I want the second lady to redeem yourself for me, as long as you redeem yourself for me, I am willing to be a cow and a horse for you! ”

Qin Chaojiu sighed: "Mei Zhi, haven't you forgotten what the situation is in the Hou Mansion, and it is not easy to come up with fifty taels of silver." If you don't want to say it, just don't you, because I haven't been here. Miss Shen Wu, let's go. ”

"Wait! Second Miss stay, I'm willing to say! ”

Mei Zhi knelt on the ground and counted all the things that Qin Jingxi had told her about what she had done for Qin Chaojiu.

Qin Chaojiu's face was unwavering, all of this she had known for a long time.

But Shen Yajun, who heard these words for the first time, was stunned by surprise, and her back was cold.

She instantly thought of what happened in the Shen Mansion on that day, and it was clear that Qin Jingxi didn't see anything, but she swore that Qin Chaojiu, the person who went in.

It turned out that the incident was not accidental.

Qin Jingxi: Since she came back from Qin Chaojiu, she has been deliberately targeting her and calculating her.

"Press a handprint." Qin Chaojiu put a confession written according to Mei Zhi's dictation in front of Mei Zhi.

Without hesitation, Mei Zhi wiped the blood from the wound on the top of her head and pressed her own handprint.

When she looked up, there was a hint of happiness in her eyes.

She was sold into the Hou Mansion when she was young, and it can be said that she grew up with Qin Jingxi from childhood to adulthood, and she thought that in addition to the love of master and servant, there should also be a trace of sisterhood.

But until she was sold to the Hou Mansion and sold to the Qinglou, she never saw her come to find her, and she didn't even have any news of asking someone to ask her.

From childhood to adulthood, she has always been her maid in her duty, she carries all the mistakes, and she suffers all the beatings.

No one knew that at the moment when she was finally sold to the Hou Mansion, she still had illusions, thinking that the eldest lady would definitely rush out to save her.

But no.

Now, they can't be regarded as master servants, and they can't say that she is a traitor, right, she just wants to make her life better.

Qin Chaojiu left fifty taels of silver for her, and left this place of smoke and miasma without looking back.

After walking far away, Shen Yajun opened his mouth and asked, "What Mei Zhi said is true?" ”

Qin Chaojiu hadn't spoken for a long time, and Zhujie had already rushed to answer: "Naturally, it's all true, the eldest lady is bullying our young lady to be straight-minded, simple-minded, and calculating our young lady everywhere." ”

Shen Yajun didn't know what to say for a while.

Qin Chaojiu was already standing at a junction and said to Shen Yajun: "Let's get together another day, I'll go back first." ”

"See you again another day."

Shen Yajun bent his knees slightly and said goodbye.

Qin Chaojiu was in a very good mood, his steps were brisk, and after returning to the Hou Mansion, he went straight to Xixue Courtyard.

"Second Miss?"

"Second Miss, what are you doing, why do you want to break into our eldest lady's yard, you ...... Yes! ”

"Smack!"

The screams of the subordinates and the crisp slaps sounded almost at the same time.

Qin Jingxi, who was eating green grapes and embroidered flowers, was beaten to the side with her face crooked, and she was stunned for a moment before standing up suddenly.

"Qin Chaojiu, you dare to hit me?!" Qin Jingxi covered her face, tears swirled in her eyes, and the crystal tears looked pitiful.

Qin Chaojiu slapped Mei Zhi's confession on the table with a "snap": "Just because you do these things, I can count it as light if I beat you, if it weren't for my good nature, I should have beaten you to death!" ”

The people of Xixue Courtyard are smart, and since Qin Chaojiu rushed in, there were already people who hurriedly moved the rescue soldiers.

But the rescuers haven't moved back yet.

Qin Chaojiu dropped a sentence: "I'm really disappointed in you!" "I turned around and left.

Zhu Jie hurriedly put away his confession, and hurriedly chased after Qin Chaojiu.

As soon as he returned to Xinxiang Courtyard, Qin Chaojiu immediately ordered: "Close the door, close the door, close the door quickly!" ”

Entering his own courtyard, Qin Chaojiu couldn't help but start laughing.

Running away after beating people is really exciting!

"Miss! You...... You're just so handsome! "Zhujie is even more excited than Qin Chaojiu.

Qin Chaojiu winked at the bamboo: "This breath of the two of us is all out at this time." ”

Zhujie nodded vigorously: "Mmmmmmmm, but miss, how do you know where Meizhi was sold?" ”

Qin Chaojiu's arrogant look headed: "What do you think I did in the days I was grounded?" ”

Zhujie shook her head, she was recuperating from her injuries for the past few days, but I heard them say that in addition to eating, drinking and sleeping in the past few days, Miss was watching the third son copy the family law, is it ...... Isn't it?

Qin Chaojiu smiled meaningfully, although she just wanted to enjoy the world, she was never a salted fish.

"That miss, you beat the eldest lady, the Hou Ye and Mrs., as well as the eldest son, the second son, and the third son, must already know, what should I do now?" After the initial excitement faded, Bamboo began to feel apprehensive again.

As soon as Zhujie's words fell, Bai Wan's angry roar sounded outside the courtyard.

"Qin Chaojiu, you come out for me!"
