Married to an old emperor v. 20
Man is alive, both good and bad, but these dead things can never offend anyone.
Xi Hongrui grabbed a huge, very valuable carved porcelain vase at a glance, and rubbed happily, the big house, she loved it to death!
……
After changing the futon, she immediately opened her sleep and slept straight to the top three poles a day.
Widow Song didn't know where to put her hands and feet, looked at the attentive maids, and said honestly: "No need, no need, I'll do it myself!" ”
After Raid Hongrui came out, it was like seeing a savior, and with the two children, he ran behind Raid Hongrui with a smoke.
Xi Hongrui was very comfortable, looking at the food sent by the maidservants, she thanked her without hesitation, pulled Widow Song to sit down, and feasted on it.
After eating, he looked at a few people: "I was in a hurry yesterday, in order not to affect everyone's rest, I only met Sister Mei'er, I don't know what other sisters are called?" ”
The other maids were immediately blessed, and reported their names and surnames in turn, and the twelve people corresponded to a kind of flower in the twelve seasons in turn, which was extremely elegant, and the old dog was quite good at playing.
After Xi Hongrui recognized someone, there was nothing else to do: "All the sisters are scattered, just do your own thing, don't worry about us, but Sister Mei'er, stay a little longer!" ”
Several girls changed their masters at first, and they were trembling in fear, and when they saw that they were not too embarrassed by the attack on Hongrui, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief and retreated.
Before leaving, he glanced at Mei'er who was left behind, and just begged her to pray for more blessings.
Mei'er took a step forward and said calmly: "I don't know what the girl commands?" ”
Xi Hongrui smiled: "I don't have any instructions, I just want to ask Sister Mei'er, is there a carriage available in the house, I want to go to the store with Aunt Song to see if there is a suitable shop." ”
When Widow Song heard this, she reacted faster than Mei'er, and grabbed Hongrui: "Red girl, what you said before, is it true?" ”
Xi Hongrui glared at her: "Of course, otherwise what if I talk about playing?" ”
Widow Song said hurriedly: "But the matter of opening a store is not a joke......
"yes, so I'm going to do it seriously now."
Widow Song: Huh?
Xi Hongrui ignored her, and directly grabbed Mei'er's arm: "Let's go, otherwise we won't be able to finish it today!" ”
Mei'er looked at herself who was pulled away by her without saying a word, and was a little surprised: "Is the slave also going?" ”
Xi Hongrui stopped and turned to look at her: "You don't want to go?" Then we can do it ourselves. ”
With that, he let go of his hand.
"No, no, no!" Mei'er hurriedly followed.
It's been a long time since she's seen the sky outside, so she's willing!
……
The shop and housework were mixed, Mei'er intimately prepared a fence for a few people, and Xi Hongrui didn't want to see acquaintances, so she agreed with Ma Yu.
At the beginning, when they saw a few women, the tooth people didn't care, and Xi Hongrui took out a gold ingot and shook it, and the tooth people instantly rushed to introduce them to the house.
Xi Hongrui was not in a hurry, let them explain which street and which alley they wanted, and finally circled the few they wanted, read them one by one, and determined the most desirable one.
A shop on the street, located in a prosperous area, there is a small wharf nearby, there are a lot of people coming and going, of course, the rent is also expensive, one hundred and fifty taels a year.
Xi Hongrui did not hesitate to decide, and when she was about to sign the deed, she turned to Widow Song: "I am not a good person, I can't buy private property, this shop will be recorded in your name, and when the time comes, I will be seven, and you will be three." ”
Widow Song was shocked, there is such a pie in the sky in this world!
But looking at Xi Hongrui, he stammered: "But Red Girl, you give me the shop, what if I lose money?" ”
Xi Hongrui rolled her eyes: "Won't you get it if you don't lose?" If you lose, it's a big deal that I'll pay a hundred taels for nothing, and you go back to sell your sour plum soup, anyway, the money is about the same as for nothing, it's up to you to do it or not. ”
Such a good thing, what a fool wouldn't do, so Widow Song instantly forgot everything and said excitedly: "I'll do it!" I'll do it! ”
Mei'er was infected by her happiness next to her, and couldn't help but smile.
This smile was grabbed by Raid Hongrui on the spot and hugged her arm: "Haha, is Sister Mei'er also interested, why don't I take you to join the shares?" ”
Mei'er was really moved for a moment, but when she thought of her situation, she gloodied again, shook her head with a smile, and looked at them: "Slaves don't have that kind of mind. ”
Even if she said this, she didn't force it, put one hand around a person's arm, and thought seriously: "Then what is the name of our noodle shop, everyone think about it." ”
Widow Song rubbed her thighs, racking her brains to think about the name of the noodle shop she had heard, and had a flash of inspiration: "Is it good to call noodles fragrant, it sounds delicious!" ”
Xi Hongrui pondered for a while, noncommittal, and looked at Mei'er again: "Sister Mei'er, has you thought of it?" ”
Mei'er thought seriously for a while, and said nervously: "Is it okay to Juxiang Pavilion?" ”
This attack on Hongrui was obviously disgusted, and shook her head again and again.
So the other two tried harder to remember, but no matter what it was, Raid Hongrui was silent and didn't speak.
In the end, I had no choice but to look at Xi Hongrui: "What does the red girl think is good?" ”
Xi Hongrui let go of their arms, looked ahead, and said confidently: "I think, it's better to call it Widow Song Noodle Soup Restaurant!" ”
Mei'er: ......
Song Widow: ......
After getting along for a while, Mei'er, who had fully understood the temperament of the red rui, dared to ask: "Girl, what is this name better than others?" ”
Widow Song also muttered: "Red girl, widow or something, doesn't it sound a little unlucky......
"Hmph~" Attack Hongrui cocked her chin proudly.
"Now imagine that you are a businessman who has just come off the ship, rushing to take the exam or something, at this time you are hungry, you don't want to eat anything, you just want to eat a bowl of hot noodle soup, there are three noodle soup restaurants in front of you at this moment, one is called Noodle Noodles, one is called Juxiang Pavilion, and the other is called Song Widow Noodle Soup House, who will you choose?"
Song Widow: ......
"Song Widow Noodle Soup House?"
Raid Hongrui clapped her hands: "That's right!" ”
Mei'er: ......
"Why?"
Xi Hongrui glanced at the two of them with disgust, hey, I don't understand anything!
What is the advantage of Song Widow Noodle Soup House over the other two?
Needless to say, of course, it's the Song Widow Noodle Soup Restaurant, which looks like a widow, hahaha!
Chapter 22 Moving the heavens and the earth
As the saying goes: There are many rights and wrongs in front of the widow's door.
Why is there a lot, of course, because I want to have a lot of right and wrong with widows.
Most of the husbands who talk about etiquette and morality in this world are disgusted and contemptuous of women like a flood prevention beast, but when it comes to women, they can't help but buzz like flies.
On the one hand, I feel that the widow is unlucky, and on the other hand, it is easy to think about the widow of other people's families.
This place where the market meets, where there are three religions and nine streams, is the first noodle business, relying on a large number of people, and there may not be a few regular customers who come and go, and the taste of the noodle restaurant cannot float to the mouths of diners.
As the first eye-catching guise, what should be written in order to stand out in the various noodle soup restaurants such as carp across the river, and catch the attention of diners at once?
Haha, of course it's a widow, what man can help but mumble in his heart when he sees the word widow.
The people who run back and forth on the dock outside are basically men of the third and ninth ranks, and with this first point of attention, the matter is half done~
Thinking so, it is impossible to say so, otherwise it will destroy her simple and spicy little Jiaojiao image, and she dare not guarantee that the conversation in the carriage today will not reach the ears of others.
So Xi Hongrui raised his chin and looked at them proudly: "Most of the people who come and go on the dock are wanderers who have left their hometowns, and they have no worries outside, and what they miss most is the taste of home." ”
"Song Widow Noodle Soup House, such a down-to-earth and ubiquitous name, when you hear it, it reminds people of their hometown, and thinks of the old lady who makes noodles for herself at home, how can it not be kind?"
Widow Song and Mei'er suddenly realized: "I see, the red girl is really thoughtful!" ”
Xi Hongrui looked up proudly, yes, she just thought so thoughtful~
So when Emperor Chongwen came, he looked at Xi Hongrui, who was holding the paper and waiting for him, and was slightly stunned: "Song widow noodle soup restaurant? ”
Xi Hongrui nodded repeatedly: "Yes!" This is the name of the noodle restaurant that we collectively came up with, the store is open, we have to set up a signboard, Huang Daguanren, since you can draw the garden, the writing must be very good-looking, can you ...... Hey hey ......"
Emperor Chongwen couldn't help but smile when he looked at her expectant and flattering eyes.
It's not that he is conceited, when it comes to the level of calligraphy and painting in this world, if he is called second, no one dares to call him first.
Countless princes and princes begged him for a piece of ink treasure, and begged countless times, what did this little girl ask for?
Oh, and make a sign for a noodle restaurant called "Song Widow Noodle Soup House".
Emperor Chongwen stroked his beard and glanced at her, the little girl blinked and looked at him, Emperor Chongwen shook his head, let's go, let's get used to her!
Squinted his eyes and looked over: "Then don't you hurry up and polish the ink for the big officials!" ”
"Okay, here we go!"
Xi Hongrui skillfully pulls chairs, serves tea, snacks, incense, polishes ink, and provides one-stop service.
Emperor Chongwen sat over and watched Xi Hongrui busy working beside him.
When the little girl really did something, the jumping energy was gone, a pair of inky clear eyes, staring at the ink without blinking, and a few wisps of silk willow like smoke hanging down from her temples.
The plain white fingers are grinding on the dark inkstone, and they are like white magnolias blooming on the ink inkstone, and their eyes are extremely focused.
Emperor Chongwen drank a cup of tea, only to feel that the sun was setting outside the curtain, and the curtain was quiet, and he looked at her with a smile: "You are very attentive to this shop." ”
"Of course."
Xi Hongrui raised her head brightly, as if she had let down some of her guard against him in the process of getting along, and whispered in her heart: "I want to make a lot of money, and then redeem myself." ”
Emperor Chongwen also realized the more intimate dependence in this sentence, and immediately became interested, and asked her with some curiosity: "Then how much does it cost you to redeem your membership, and isn't the five hundred taels for selling hairpins enough?" ”
Xi Hongrui was a little depressed and said: "This is not a matter of money or not, I am the slave of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and the Prime Minister's Mansion is not short of these money, whether I let it go or not depends on the grace of the master, if the master doesn't want to, what's the use of more money?" ”
"That's it, I want to help the princess do a good job in the shop, I hope that one day I will please the master, read on my merits, and let me out, and in the future, I will be an upright person, marry a good man openly, and no longer be a slave, and the result will be like this."
"It's just that others don't understand my thoughts, why doesn't Pei San understand it either? When he and Ning Meng go back, they will definitely sue me, and the princess is angry, and it is also true that she sold me. ”
"I have no other hope, fortunately, Aunt Song is a good person, she won't be greedy for my money, and she won't bully me, so I'll help her earn more, and one day in the future, let her buy me, so that she won't casually fall into other dirty and smelly places, otherwise, the slave and maid will really die clean."
"Okay, what are you talking about!" Emperor Chongwen hurriedly patted her on the shoulder.
She looked up, tears rolling in her eyes.
