Chapter 3 Miss is tearing up the umbrella again

The majestic Hou's Mansion, through the multi-storey pavilions, came to the main courtyard with carved beams and painted buildings.

A gorgeously dressed little fat man grabbed the lady's sleeve and wailed loudly, as if he was going to knock down the roof before giving up.

"I want to eat green vegetables! Just eat that green vegetables!"

The lady rubbed her temples helplessly, then turned to look at the woman beside her, "Has Master Hou not come back yet?"

"Go back to Ma'am, Master Hou and his colleagues have gone out to drink, and I'm afraid he won't be back until late at night." Nanny Liu replied with a bow.

Madam Hou thought for a moment, and then ordered: "Try to find out the itinerary of General Hou Ye yesterday, and make sure to find out the origin of the vegetables."

.......
Su Tangyue had no idea that her green vegetables had been noticed by others. After sending Xie Zhixun away yesterday, she tossed and turned all night.

I was extremely happy about the sudden increase in health, but also irritable because I couldn't figure out why.

Why couldn't Xie Zhixun fall into the water a few more times yesterday!Isn't it fun to fall into the water?
Forget it, left and right are not a bad thing!
Su Tangyue rubbed the messy chicken coop, "Tao Hong, prepare the car, and go check the shop!"

Tsk tsk tsk, shopkeepers are going to be unlucky again!The young lady obviously fell in love with yesterday's young master at first sight, she became sick with love, could not love her, and harbored resentment.

The sweetheart has to be held, and the shopkeepers who can't live up to it can only vent their anger.

Suzaku Street, the busiest street in the capital, is bustling with hawkers hawking, stewards welcoming and sending people off.

A plain-looking carriage stopped straight at the shop in the center of the street - Linglong Pavilion.

Shopkeeper Wang, who was watching all directions and listening to all directions in the shop, had already been waiting at the door, placed the car stool himself, and leaned over to wait for someone to get off the car.

A pair of slender hands lifted the curtain of the car with a "swish", and without waiting for the maid's handrail, he jumped to the ground neatly. If it wasn't for his delicate figure and face like a peach fairy, he would have suspected that he was a weird man in a skirt up.

Seeing this, the steward lowered his body a little, and secretly wiped the corners of his eyes with his sleeve.

Yaoshou!The lady is tearing up the umbrella again!
"Thank you behind closed doors, and prepare the account book!" Su Tangyue went straight to the shop before shopkeeper Wang could respond.

The layout of the shop is simple, with only rows of counters lined up. The ornaments on the counters are neatly arranged and the prices are marked.At each counter, there is an eloquent young man and an ingenious maid. The young man introduces jewelry, and the maid is responsible for trying on the jewelry for the guests. The cooperation complements each other.

Su Tangyue found out the problem with a simple glance. A servant actually recommended a pair of round white jade earrings to a girl with a round face and yellowish skin.

Woohoo, is this to make this girl or the jade pendant more round?Or do you want the girl to admit that she is not white enough?

Su Tangyue frowned and looked in that direction, Tao Hong instantly understood and went to solve it.

Why did such a moth come out!
Shopkeeper Wang wiped off his cold sweat in fright, and led her to the main room on the second floor without stopping, for fear that she would take another look at the store.

As soon as Su Tangyue took her seat, the shopkeeper Wang quickly served the refreshing chrysanthemum tea, and stood behind her with a folding fan shaking gently.

Su Tangyue took a sip of tea boldly, flipped through the ledger and began to check it carefully.

Time passed slowly, Su Tangyue gradually became better, and her heart calmed down. Her hands moved smoothly, turning the paper page by page, and from time to time, she used a strange black charcoal pen to write calculations on the paper. .

In less than half an hour, the two thick books were checked.

Even Shopkeeper Wang, who was used to seeing Miss's magical calculation ability, was amazed once again.

She put down the ink pen and straightened up, and shopkeeper Wang's little heart was immediately suspended high.

"This month's turnover is [-]% lower than last year at this time." Su Tangyue hit the point.

"This year's eldest princess's flower viewing banquet has been postponed until next month, and the ladies from all families are waiting for next month to compete for beauty!" Shopkeeper Wang responded cautiously.

Su Tangyue nodded, the flower viewing banquet at the eldest princess's house was like a modern blind date party, the young ladies in Beijing could not wait to spend the most money to buy the most expensive jewelry to adorn themselves, so as to find a good husband-in-law.

Although Su Tangyue never went to such occasions, she hoped that there would be as many flower viewing feasts as possible. After all,

Really make money! ! !
"Miss, a young master just arrived at the store and refused to leave, saying that he wants all the white jade jewelry in the store, and it is very urgent." A servant came in suddenly to report.

Tsk tsk, what kind of two hundred and five is being taken advantage of! ! !
Pooh!loved ones!This is a loved one living outside! !

"Sell it to him! Sell him the rest of last year too! The guest is the Jade Emperor! How can we push the Jade Emperor away! We must double the request of the guest!"

Su Tangyue was all smiles, and she just patted the table excitedly, the previous anxiety has long been forgotten!
"Let all the guys go and help tidy up the white jade jewelry. By the way, Tao Hong, let Yuan Zhui'er come in."

Su Tangyue crossed her legs, sipped tea, and gave orders leisurely.

She would like to see how such a guy with no aesthetics was recruited!
"Miss, please don't dismiss the villain! The villain can do anything! The villain's mother is sick in bed, so I really can't stop this job!"

The boy knelt down as soon as he entered the door, and then wept with snot and tears as if the sky had fallen.

Su Tangyue was taken aback. Was it unreasonable for her to be so ferocious?

She carefully looked around the boy. He looked about fifteen or sixteen years old. Although he was flexible and thin and black like a monkey, his bright black eyes were shy and cramped, not shrewd at all.

It's not like a boy who does chores all year round.

Shopkeeper Wang at the side sighed secretly, but stepped forward anyway,

"Miss, this kid's name is Li Houde. He has studied for several years. He is a well-known filial son and scholar. He was originally going to end this year. But half a year ago, his old lady was seriously ill, so he immediately took off his long shirt and started doing odd jobs. The wages are high. Just do it, just to treat my old lady, and I was recruited this month."

Shopkeeper Wang saw that the lady was drinking tea as usual, thought for a while, and continued: "Deduct half a month's wages from him, I will teach him, and then let him go to work, Miss thinks it's good?"

Su Tangyue stroked the teacup, looked at the thin man with a straight back, and thought for a moment.

"Let go of the pride of a scholar and become a servant, don't you regret it?"

Li Houde raised his head, his eyes were firm, and his tone was even more decisive, "As long as I can cure my mother, I will never regret not studying in this life!"

The old lady worked hard all her life, raising him alone, and even doing laundry for others in the winter, just to earn money for him to study.

Now that his mother is sick, if he continues to study regardless, he will be a burden to his mother for years of hard work, wasting ten years of studying hard!
What a little scholar who really understands the books of sages!Su Tangyue applauded fiercely in her heart, there are too many pedantic people who are stupid in reading in this era.

They really don't listen to things outside the window, they only read the books of sages, and enrich themselves by draining the flesh and blood of the whole family.

"I will subsidize your studies to gain fame and fame, and find famous doctors in the capital. As long as your mother's illness can be cured, I will guarantee that you will have no worries!" Su Tangyue said loudly.

Li Houde was not happy when he heard the words, and replied neither humble nor overbearing: "Miss, what do you want?"

"You will be named on the gold list in the future, don't forget my kindness today!"

"it is good!"

As long as the old lady can be cured, he will not hesitate to go up the mountain of swords or down into the sea of ​​flames!

Su Tangyue smiled instantly. At this moment, the sunlight outside the window shone on her, as if casting a layer of golden light on her.

And Li Houde was even more dumbfounded. Even after many years, when he became a high-ranking official, he always remembered that a girl who looked like a god rewritten his destiny in an instant.
