Chapter 35: Rescue Force
In the end, Pei Xingyuan was sent away, and Mi Xia Yao was not idle.
She recently discussed with Gu Yun about the pricing direction of the cloth sold in Yuelailou, and she has been busy thinking about how to jump the reputation of Yuelailou from the low-level people to the top these days.
And don't jump too much.
Early in the morning of the next day, Mi Xia Yao handed over the child to Mi Hanhai, and she took Song Qiao to Yuelai Building to see the progress of the redecoration.
As soon as I entered the Yuelai Building, the decoration workers were carrying the long board and walking out, and the foreman saw Mi Xia Yao coming, and hurriedly greeted him.
"Madame, you can count it, someone sneaked around in front of our shop last night."
The foreman's expression was solemn, and it seemed that this matter was quite serious.
Mi Xia Yao didn't react, she had too many opponents, who knew which one was sneaky.
"Do you see who it is?" She asked rhetorically.
The foreman touched his head, "Look at the body is a little fat, that big belly can't be raised without a mountain and sea delicacies, I estimate that it may be an adult with a bit of status." ”
I can have a pair of people of this size.
The first thing to rule out must be a family enemy like Duan Honglin.
In the end, the scope was narrowed, and only one person remained.
Mi Xia Yao's brows furrowed slightly, and she always felt a little uneasy in her heart, "What did he do after he came?" ”
The foreman shook his head, "I didn't do anything, I peeked into the decoration of our house, turned around Yuelai Building and ran away." ”
Mi Xia Yao nodded to indicate that she understood, and sent the foreman away.
Song Qiao listened to it for a long time, and she also reacted to who it was, "It can't be that Second Master Mi discovered our little means, right?" ”
"He didn't dare to do anything to me even if he found out, at most he blocked me in front of the store to embarrass me."
Mi Xia Yao snorted, she glanced at the renovation progress, and estimated the expected time in her heart.
Just as she was about to walk out of Yuelai Building, there was really an expected person.
"Niece, isn't it a little too vicious for you to do this?"
Mi Erye took the two family members and ran over angrily to question Mi Xia Yao.
There was only a thin maid behind the woman, facing the three fierce and vicious people in front of her.
She wasn't flustered at all.
"Second uncle, what are you talking about? How I didn't understand. A gentle smile tugged at the corner of her mouth.
In this way, in the eyes of outsiders, it was this fierce uncle who ran over and surrounded the innocent and poor juniors.
Mi Erye took out a piece of paper from his arms, and it was clearly written in black and white.
He pointed to Song Qiao, who was finally signed, and looked at her with gloomy eyes.
"I went to ask, your maid's name is Song Qiao! You pretended to be your maid and bought the shop from me at a low price, which is clearly blackmail! It's blackmail! It's a scam! ”
Mi Xia Yao tilted her head, as if it was the first time she had heard such a thing.
"Song Qiao, is there such a thing?"
"There is an aunt in the slave's family, who has been treating the slave very well since she was a child, and just told the slave a few days ago that she had bought a shop...... Yes! ”
Song Qiao's acting skills are worthy of being brought out by Mi Xia Yao, and she is superb.
She covered her small mouth and looked at Second Master Mi with wide eyes, "Could it be that my aunt bought Second Master Mi's shop!" ”
"You're lying!"
Mi Erye slowly sniffed out the weird places.
Ever since he bumped into Mi Xia Yao in the alley of the official mansion that day, he had already felt a little strange.
Later, I went to the yamen in person, checked the ownership of the current shop with some connections, and found that the shop had been transferred again.
Although I don't know how much this shop sold for.
But he went out for a thousand taels here, and he definitely lost money!!
This fall is not a casual bump, it is a loss of half of his private pocket!
"What's going on?" Mi Xia Yao looked at Song Qiao knowingly.
Song Qiao recounted the process of buying a shop that day, as if she had heard about it from her aunt.
"My aunt told me that she bought a very cost-effective shop on the street, only 1,000 taels, and it is not easy to have such a price for such a land like the one in the capital.
"My aunt also told the slave that if you don't know what to buy, you can collect a lot of money by transferring the shop out for rent, or accumulate it every month!"
Song Qiao's light and cheerful voice was like a sharp knife scraping at the tip of Mi Erye's heart.
"Ahh Mi Xia Yao suddenly realized, she turned her head to look at Mi Second Master, and said with a smile: "Second Uncle, even if you blame this matter, you can't blame my maid, right?"
"We are all businessmen doing business, and this loss of profit has to be compared to a scale in our hearts, a few catties and a few taels, and how many points we earn, it must be clear and clear.
"The grievances you have suffered here now are the result of your decisive decision. How can you lose money by yourself, and you have to find irrelevant people to reason with. ”
Mi Xia Yao's short-term temperament was completely exposed, forcing Mi Second Master to be unable to say a word.
She watched Second Master Mi go from a red face at the beginning to a pig's liver color at the end.
The joy in the heart is not easy to express in words.
"Mi Xia Yao! Don't think that your uncle is covering you, you think you can stand in the Mi family!
"You're just a foreign woman!"
The middle-aged man's voice of scolding and roaring can be said to be very loud.
There are people coming and going on the streets, and there are always people who can't hold gossip in their hearts and want to know a thing or two.
Second Master Mi has already burned from the fire with anger, occupying the only remaining reason, and he has to be impulsive when he takes a step forward.
She subconsciously took a step back, wanting to avoid Mi Erye.
Seeing that he couldn't dodge, suddenly a big hand wearing sleeves clasped Mi Erye's wrist.
She looked up along the cuffs, and the man had clear eyebrows and a slender height.
"Lord Rong!" When Second Master Mi saw Rong Yuanzhou, his face was happy.
He turned his head and reported that Mi Xia Yao and her maid had committed fraud.
Rong Yuanzhou glanced at Mi Xia Yao, who was frightened, and then looked at the pot-bellied man in front of him with a treacherous face.
"I only see in my eyes that you are bullying a woman, and she has not done any substantial harm at all."
"My lord, it's not what you see now!" Mi Erye reacted quickly, and immediately withdrew his hand, wanting to explain something.
Rong Yuanzhou pursed his thin lips into a line and snorted.
Mi Xia Yao didn't expect that Lord Zuo Tongzheng, who had only met once, would actually help her.
She really doesn't want to owe this favor.
"Let's take a trip with this officer." Rong Yuanzhou kept explaining to the second master, and he glanced at his colleagues in the same room.
The other party took the second master Mi with an earthy face.
Seeing that Rong Yuanzhou had no intention of leaving, Mi Xia Yao thought about it, and still took the initiative to speak: "Thank you, Lord Rong." ”
She was selfish, thinking that she would thank her first, and whether she would owe less of this favor.
But the other party didn't appreciate it at all and said with a smile; "If Miss Mi wants to thank me, there are other things to thank you for."
