Chapter 16

The sun was about to set in the west, and it was quiet in front of Xiao Feng's stall.

The housekeeper of Liu's Mansion happily bounced his legs, very embarrassed.

Liu Xue'er, who borrowed two taels of silver from her younger brother, was trying to smuggle in for the third time, but was still intercepted by the maids in the house.

Liu Peng, who was covering his sister's actions, was spanked by Liu Tong, and the pocket money he had saved was confiscated. The double pain of body and spirit made him cry out loud, trying to win sympathy and redeem his losses.

At this critical moment, Liu Tong's strong husband was in charge, facing the cold eyes of his wife, his daughter's tears, and his son's howl, chattering over and over again like Xianglin's sister-in-law.

"I'm all for Cher's good, and you'll understand later!"

There is still a quarter of an hour left until victory.

In the distance, a woman walked over like a willow, followed by a big man.

Under the gaze of everyone, someone called out the woman's name: "Isn't this the water girl?" ”

The water girl walked to Xiao Feng's stall, looked at him sadly, and threw a handkerchief bag on his table.

The sound of "bang" is not light. Everyone's hearts beat to the sound.

The butler was beating not only his heart, but his whole person was jumping.

"Girl, I heard that this person is a liar, don't take the money to waste!"

The housekeeper is loyal to Liu's mansion and works hard for the master. As long as the water girl is persuaded away, even if he pulls off Xiao Feng's last straw.

"Don't worry, I don't count my fortune, my mother gave an order, as long as Chunyan is qualified to hang lanterns upstairs, he is not allowed to come to him to tell fortunes."

The water girl said and pointed to the big man behind her, and glared at him angrily: "Now I even follow the urging to go shopping." ”

The big man smiled: "Girl, don't blame me, I hold my mother's rice bowl, and I have to do whatever my mother asks me to do." ”

The housekeeper was immediately relieved, and smiled: "It's good if the girl doesn't count, it's good if you don't count." ”

But I really wondered in my heart, the powerful people behind Chunyanlou may not be afraid of a Zhao Wenhua, why is my mother so cooperative?

Although Chunyan Building is also a business, the skin and meat business doesn't seem to have anything to do with the contractors of the Ministry of Industry, right?

"This is the money that my sister paid for the word test a few days ago, she left in a hurry, and entrusted this to me before leaving, so that I must pay you. Just in time for my discomfort in the past two days, I came two days late. ”

Without waiting for Xiao Feng to speak, Qiaoqiao had already eagerly untied the handkerchief, and inside was an ingot of five taels of silver, glowing with a faint green light.

Xiao Feng was frantically screaming in his heart, and he couldn't wait to get up and give the housekeeper of the Liu Mansion a big - force out his evil anger, but the surface was calm and light.

"The cost of painting the girl that day was three taels, which is too much. Qiaoqiao, find two taels of silver for the water girl. ”

The people around were immediately impressed by Xiao Feng's superior demeanor, saying that three taels is three taels, and it is not uncommon to give more money, can this be a liar?

Qiaoqiao was a little reluctant, but he must be unconditionally obedient to the master's words, so he started to pull from the pile of broken silver.

The water girl waved her hand: "No need, the painting told me before leaving, thank you for the extra one." If it weren't for your divine calculations, she wouldn't have such a good home. ”

After speaking, the water girl glanced at Xiao Feng nostalgically, and showed a pleading look at the big man. She is already weak and beautiful, and this discharge is even more pitiful to me.

It's a pity that the big man has lived in the flowers for a long time, and he has the consciousness of the flower messenger of the Qinglou, so he just smiled: "The water girl should not be embarrassed to be small, the small job bowl is important." ”

Lao Dao couldn't help it: "Chunyanlou's mother is said to be a master of management, known as Huanchang Meng Wei, and has a harmonious relationship with the girls. Why is fortune-telling forbidden? ”

The big man looked at the old Dao and said with a smile: "The Taoist chief doesn't know, my mother doesn't prohibit fortune telling, but it is forbidden to count here at Xiao Gongzi." If the water girl wants to do the math with you, the Taoist chief, it doesn't hurt. ”

Lao Dao was stunned: "Why is this? ”

Dahan still smiled professionally: "Mom said, if the girls let Xiao Gongzi count it as a good thing, her Chunyan Building will be closed." As for other fortune tellers, whatever. ”

This is not very harmful, and it is extremely insulting, even a fool can hear the meaning behind it.

Xiao Feng calculated accurately, and he was not allowed to find him. The old man next to him is a liar, but it's okay, you don't dare to believe it anyway.

Xiao Feng pulled all the scattered silver into Qiaoqiao's pocket, and then handed over two ingots and five taels of silver to the housekeeper of Liu's mansion.

Everyone watched, and the housekeeper of the Liu Mansion had no choice but to take out the previous notes and write them off. Then with a sad face, he walked back with the silver in his hand.

That appearance is not like holding ten taels of silver, but like holding the urn of a loved one.

Xiao Feng picked up all the remaining copper coins on the table, including the fifty wen that Lao Dao had supported before, and the copper coins that skillfully sold cloth, and put them on Lao Dao's table.

Then Zhengse bowed: "Thank you to the Taoist for your help, and I feel it in my heart." ”

Lao Dao hurriedly stood up: "How can I say this, it doesn't help, it's not appropriate." ”

Xiao Feng smiled, Lao Dao's robe was very torn, but his income was actually okay, especially these days, the business was better. He must have had a place to use money, otherwise he wouldn't be so self-suffering.

Although Lao Dao made money for him, he may also want to keep him as a foil, but it is not easy for a person who values money so much.

The thousand-year-old story of winning people's grace, Xiao Feng in the previous life was like this, and it will not change in this life.

The water girl left with the big man, and before leaving, she said unwillingly: "Xiao Gongzi, remember to go to Chunyan Tower to find me when you have time, and I will pay for you." ”

This is to be posted upside down, but Xiao Feng knows in his heart that although he looks good, he is not to the point of making the water girl covet. She wanted him to tell fortunes.

No matter how wide my mother is, she can't stare at the girl in the middle of the night and do what people love to do. Who can stop the word test in the nest?

Xiao Feng waved his hand, indicating that it was easy to say, and then suddenly remembered Zhang Tianci. This guy doesn't know what's going on, he respects himself quite a lot, and it doesn't seem appropriate to be a fellow practitioner.

Liu Tong sat lonely at the dining table, pouring himself a drink. The point of opening the meal is very sacred in Liu's house, and the ancestral motto of the Liu family is that "the people take food as the sky".

But now the whole family has no intention of eating. The meal was placed on the table, Liu Xueer lay on the bed and cried, and Mrs. Liu sat on the edge of the bed to persuade.

Liu Peng was also lying on the bed, his money was already coming back, so he didn't have to pretend to be miserable anymore, but his butt really hurt and he didn't dare to sit down.

Liu Tong comforted himself that all this was a temporary pain, and after he completely defeated Xiao Feng, he would be fine.

The daughter may be in a mood for a few days, and then slowly calm down. When she marries a good husband, she will be grateful to herself.

The conscience of heaven and earth, how can there be a father who does not love his children? Of course, he is for Liu's house, but he is also for the good of Xue'er!

But Mrs. Qi still doesn't understand herself, Liu Tong touched the bubbles on the corners of his mouth, the fire was burning, he really wanted to shoot the case and take a concubine.

is a dignified member of the household department, what's wrong with taking a concubine? What's wrong? He felt that if he drank another half a catty of wine, he might really have the courage to shout out.

The housekeeper came in with the silver in grief, followed by a few subordinates who probed their brains, among which there must be secret agents of Mrs. and Miss.

Liu Tong's heart sank when he saw the housekeeper's expression, but he still had a glimmer of hope, wouldn't it......

The housekeeper put the silver on the table and told the story again, without any desire to perform, and the speech was dry, far less wonderful than the previous day.

Liu Tong looked at the ten taels of silver bitterly, and then looked at the loyal housekeeper, he couldn't blame anything, and waved his hand to let him retreat.

He looked sadly at the empty dining table, lost his appetite at all, and got up to go out.

When I walked to the door, there was chatter outside, mixed with Liu Xue'er's cheerful laughter.

"Eat, eat, starve, Peng'er go quickly! Mother, you hold his other arm! ”

"Son, hurry up, your sister has a rare good appetite, the food has been served for a long time, it should be cold."

"Mother, sister, slow down, my butt hurts!"

Liu Tong was so angry that he dropped his wine glass.

"I'm so hard!"
