Chapter 009 The old lady can't be messed with
saw Qu Biqian wearing a Hunan concubine-colored phoenix collar piping cheongsam, coming from not far away.
Chun Tao followed behind her and covered her with an oil-paper umbrella, while half of her body was exposed outside the umbrella and was soaked by the rain.
Mr. Dong is also an old acquaintance of the Qu family, and he knows how Qu Biqian's child fell into the dust, but he has always looked down on that kind of woman in his bones.
"Shopkeeper, I know that there are some things I shouldn'......t say, but I can't help it."
"I know in my heart what Mr. Dong wants to say, Xiaoqian is a good girl, and I have my own measure."
Gu Qingdai's heart was towards Qu Biqian, and she always felt that she was not willing to fall, but was just pitted by this world.
Mr. Dong got up on the spot, "I will go to the teahouse to supervise the work, and I will not teach the shopkeeper to spend more money." ”
"Let Mr. Dong bother. It's not enough to save money, the quality has to pass, and the decoration is not in line with the taste of Luancheng people. ”
Mr. Dong walked out of the pergola with a goatee, and Qu Biqian and Chun Tao also happened to walk in.
"Mr. Dong, did you deliberately avoid me when you came over?" Qu Biqian shrugged her shoulders, as if she was used to this kind of treatment.
Gu Qingdai beckoned her to sit down and drink tea, "Why are you free today?" ”
"I told my bustard mother that I was coming to you, and she was very happy to let you go." Qu Biqian pulled the handkerchief and wiped the tea stains on her lips.
Gu Qingdai raised her head in confusion and stared at her puzzled.
Qu Biqian moved closer to her and pinched her voice: "You became famous in our book that night, and it was rumored that the second master and the third son of Fan were jealous of you." ”
Gu Qingdai just drank a sip of tea, and spit it out, this ...... What's the matter?
It turned out that this is how the scandal came out.
"We're the most snobbish in that kind of place, and Mother Bustard wishes I could have more contact with you so that I can help her attract more customers."
Gu Qingdai stretched out her finger and pointed at her forehead, and said in a broken voice: "It's for you to look for a guest who can redeem you, right?" She has cultivated you for so many years, just to make this big money. ”
Qu Biqian sighed for a long time: "The speed at which I save money can never compare to the speed at which her price increases, and I don't know that I am worth so much money." ”
Gu Qingdai was out of reach, and she didn't want to say high-sounding words to prevaricate her.
Qu Biqian didn't bother too much, and when she saw that the drizzle outside was gradually stopping, she shouted for Gu Qingdai to go to the market with her.
She has a lot of constraints in the book, and it is rare for her to finally come out for a trip.
In fact, Shuyu must have sent someone to spy on Qu Biqian in secret, and she will never be able to escape from other people's Wuzhi Mountain.
Gu Qingdai wanted to repay her favor by borrowing her jade ring, so she accompanied her to the most prosperous commercial street in Luancheng.
Along the way, Qu Biqian repeatedly knocked on the side, and wondered whether Gu Qingdai had a crush on Fan Zheng or Lian Beichuan.
The Lian family, the Fan family, plus the Lu family and the Gong family, are the four most powerful families in Luancheng.
No matter whose son-in-law you can catch, it can be regarded as a crow flying on the branch and becoming a phoenix.
Gu Qingdai couldn't argue, no matter which of them was rich or powerful, she was not uncommon.
She didn't believe it, she couldn't do it on her own.
Qu Biqian saw that she was very impatient to be asked by herself, so she hurriedly pulled her into a silk village in front of her.
This shop is magnificent, and the young man who received the two of them picked up a variety of the latest styles of materials and recommended them.
Qu Biqian couldn't put down several kinds of materials, Gu Qingdai felt that it was a good choice to send materials, so she encouraged: "How about choosing two pieces to make clothes?" ”
Qu Biqian had this intention, "Let's do a few more." ”
Gu Qingdai quietly pressed the small bag in her hand, and said in her heart, the fabric of this satin village is not cheap!
There are too many places to use money at the end of the teahouse, but she can still save it, just buy it for Qu Biqian.
She slipped away like this, and Qu Biqian quarreled with someone.
For a material.
Xu is the principle of determining that things are rare and expensive, and the young man does not say that this material is out of print, and it is the top goods in the top goods.
This technique is really attractive, Qu Biqian and another customer who entered the store actually looked at each other at the same time.
The guest seemed to be about the same age as Qu Biqian, and his figure was quite good.
It's just that Qu Biqian looks more docile, while the other party is a little arrogant.
The young man stood between the two men and persuaded each other, but neither of them would take a step back.
Gu Qingdai hurriedly stepped forward, wanting to say some flattering words to make the other party an adult.
But as soon as she spoke, the other party recognized her.
"Isn't this the shopkeeper of the Lion Teahouse? What, come and help your sister deal with me? This material is the first thing I took a fancy to, and I can afford it for any amount of money. ”
This "old lady" stood with a pair of bright fox eyes, looked at Gu Qingdai up and down, seemed to remember something, and looked at Qu Biqian next to her again.
Qu Biqian was not afraid, "It's the guy who gave it to me first, why did you cut off your beard halfway?" ”
"Old lady" Huo Di shouted loudly: "I'll just say look at you so familiar, aren't you the sister in Taoyuan Library, your name is Qu...... Qu Biqian, right? ”
As soon as these words came out, Qu Biqian lost all arrogance in an instant.
Tears were already rolling in her eyes, and she longed for a crack in the ground to get into.
There's nothing wrong with her being a sister, but she's always been a clean and self-conscious child.
But at this time, I went to explain to others, why there is no suspicion of three hundred taels of silver here.
Hitting people doesn't slap their faces, Gu Qingdai knows that this is the pain that poked Qu Biqian.
"It doesn't matter who we are, we have to come first when we come out to buy things. What do you mean, the highest bidder wins? ”
"Can't you?" The "old lady" crossed her arms and assumed a gesture of contempt.
Gu Qingdai was waiting for this sentence.
She did not embarrass the young man, but ordered him to call out the steward of the silk village.
The young man cried and trotted all the way to the back to ask for someone.
Oh, a fair-skinned man in his thirties came back with the young man.
He first saluted Gu Qingdai and Qu Biqian, and when he turned around, he smiled directly at the "old lady": "Boss Zhong is here, and there is a loss of welcome, and there is a loss of welcome." ”
Boss Zhong?
Qu Biqian finally recognized the other party, and she attached it to Gu Qingdai's ear: "She should be the hottest big flower in the Zhong family's big opera troupe recently, Zhong Ling." ”
What a horn!
"Qingdai, let's go, I don't want that material." Qu Biqian admits that she can't compete with Zhong Ling.
Gu Qingdai pushed Qu Biqian away, walked in front of the man in charge, and asked in public: "I just want to find out, is it the highest price to buy materials in your silk and satin village?" ”
"Of course not! It's all because this guy doesn't know the inside story, in fact, that material was booked by Boss Zhong with us a long time ago. The man in charge insisted on protecting Zhong Ling.
Gu Qingdai reacted unhurriedly, "That's the case, that's easy, you go and call up Boss Zhong's scheduled records and let me take a look." ”
The man in charge was stunned for a moment, "Uh......"
"Verbal booking? How can you count? ”
"Yes, yes, I'll go get it for you."
"Hey, it's just a notebook, why do you want to run errands yourself?" Gu Qingdai crossed in front of him.
The man in charge couldn't get out, so he had to send the young man back to get it.
The young man quickly took it back, and he wanted to send it to the man in charge, but he was snatched away by Gu Qingdai, who was quick-eyed.
She flipped through the records on it casually, "On which day did Boss Zhong book it?" ”
The man in charge: "The first day of the seventh month." ”
Young man: "June 30. ”
