Chapter 20: The Fairy Stall

Qifu.

The rays of the sun shone on the branches of the trees that swayed in the breeze, and above the branches, the snow had melted, forming a sparse sprinkling of water and scattered in the courtyard. The servants in the courtyard cleaned the courtyard in a staggered and orderly manner.

Over there in the master bedroom.

The eldest wife of the Qi family saw that Lan Sheng had gone out and had not returned for a long time, she just wanted to eat Yu Ji buns, and told Sheng'er to go and go back. She counted Sheng'er's foot strength, and she should have returned in less than an hour. But obviously, more than an hour has passed......

There are occasional Japanese soldiers on the streets around here, and the girl is young and beautiful, even if she wears a cloak and hat, it is difficult to hide her charming momentum...... The eldest lady secretly screamed that it was not good, and the more she thought about it, the more afraid she became, but she couldn't get angry in a hurry during the confinement, so she endured it.

A few maids were afraid that she would be hungry, so they hurriedly went to the kitchen to get pastries.

The eldest lady was upset, and then wanted to smell the tea, so she instructed the two little maids who were trembling and waiting: "Go to the master's side and get me some green tea...... If the old man doesn't have it, go to the old man of the cook and ask for it. ”

As soon as the eldest lady spoke, the maids became nervous. The stove in the house was well fired, and the eldest lady occasionally sweated slightly, and one of them came to wipe her face with water, and in a panic dropped the towel on the edge of the basin......

"All of them are clumsy!!Why?, you can't do small things?" the eldest lady was still angry.

"Big lady, but Sister Sheng'er, she told us not to let you drink tea, you are still in confinement, just drink tea, it will definitely not work......"

"Nonsense, I just told you to take the tea, I said take the tea and drink it? I'm going to take it and smell it, I just miss the smell! Go get it for me quickly......

"Yes, yes......" The maids walked out of the door very helplessly, looking at each other and not daring to go to the old man to ask for it, so they tacitly went to the old man in the kitchen to get tea. but bumped into Annon, a chef who had just come back to buy vegetables.

Annon was very anxious and whispered something to the old man. The old Ding Tou was a rough and loud voice, and said hurriedly: "What did you say, Sheng'er, was taken away by Xiao Bai of the cavalry team?!"

Annon was a timid and cautious little servant, he said in a panic: "Yes, yes, I just passed by the market to buy vegetables, and I saw the military master Xiao Bai riding a horse, Lan Sheng blocked his way, I am afraid that I am already in the military camp at this moment!"

Lao Ding Tou was very anxious, because Lan Sheng was the eldest lady's favorite maid after all, and it was definitely inappropriate not to tell the eldest lady about this matter, so he took a pot of good tea and a bag of green tea leaves, and followed the two girls to the eldest lady's room immediately.

According to the day of the eldest wife, there are still two days before the confinement can be released, at this moment she listened very anxious, because Sheng'er is simply her treasure, she hurriedly asked an old woman who served the confinement and Lan Sheng, the old woman calculated and said, these two days can also be confinement, but it is a day earlier and a day later, so the eldest lady saw that the wind outside was not strong, the sky was clear and blue, and she hurriedly put on a black and gold cloak, and handed over the sleeping baby in her arms to the wife and children to take care of. Busy following Annon and Lao Dingtou out.

The eldest wife was originally a fiery temper, and as she walked, she thought anxiously that Sheng'er couldn't be lost, because she asked the fortune teller Liu Shenxian to calculate, and her good luck was all on her......

They took a few male servants, and the eldest lady sat in a carriage, and followed the route indicated by Annon, and inquired about half the street, but did not find Sheng'er's whereabouts.

The fortune teller's stall is also nearby, and their family has now had a small façade thanks to the grace of the eldest lady and the grace of the rich and noble.

Liu is a person who can pinch and calculate, and is known as Liu Shenxian. And what he calculated, tried and tested, many dignitaries and nobles quietly came to visit, and he earned this small façade for his family with this business alone, bought furniture, and married a delicate daughter-in-law who was like a flower.

The eldest lady is a typical superstitious leader, she listens to the words of the god very much, so she hurriedly got out of the carriage and asked Liu Shenxian to tell her where Lan Sheng is now, whether she is in the barracks, or whether she has been abducted or beaten to death......

There were already three wealthy families waiting here, and they were about to look at the eldest lady with disdain and signal her not to cut in line, but when they found that she seemed to be more valuable than them, they were a little discouraged, and gave way a few steps.

"Liu Shenxian, you do the math, quickly give me the math, where is my big girl Sheng'er, and there are many rewards for it!"

The eldest lady said anxiously, took out a handful of coins from her sleeve, slapped them on the table, and ignored the eyes of the people around her, for the sake of a maid, the demand for such accurate calculations, the others were also surprised.

Of course, Liu Shenxian understands that the eldest lady regards Lan Sheng as her own cash cow and the same as her sign, so she will naturally care very much.

No one knows, Liu Shenxian, who is also one of the intelligence officers of the Lan family's team, this person is Lan Sheng's senior brother.

This person has some ability, he even knows some military masters in the national army, and also knows some local rich people, some kung fu masters, and the owners of martial arts halls, all of whom are familiar with one or two.

But seeing that he took out a bamboo tube unhurriedly, handed it to the eldest lady, and then asked her to draw lots, how could the eldest lady care about drawing lots and divination, so she hurriedly said: "Can you just calculate it? Don't let me draw lots, you know that my luck is sometimes ineffective." ”

Liu Shenxian pretended to calculate, looked at the eldest wife's complexion, anxious, overflowing, he could see that she was very concerned about Lan Sheng's cash cow and the door number, so he comforted a few words and said: "The eldest lady doesn't have to panic, if the calculation is correct, at this moment your maid is in the Jiang family's mansion, because my apprentice saw it just now, that Xiao Bai, go to his Jiang mansion, if the calculation is correct, you can see your maid today, and open the first business today, I will give you a free bar, you always take care of me, I will not accept this money." Seeing that you are only out of confinement like this, I didn't give your child any money, so this business is like this......"

"This is not good, you must take it!" the eldest lady took out another handful of coins and slapped them on his table. Then he threw off his cloak, put on his hat, and turned to follow the servant's carriage away.

The surrounding neighbors saw it and pointed at it in the back, saying that it was another big family bullying people who came to the street.

The eldest lady didn't care to hear this, and now she had to keep her cash cow.
