Beautiful woman

Chapter 10 Chapter 10 Drinking Order
When Qin Xiangxiang walked halfway, he remembered that he was going to read in his father's study.

Seeing that Qin Xiangxiang was about to look back, Hongxiu quickly stopped her: "Madam, you can actually ask me and Tianxiang. When the master was not at home, we were bored, so we all read the books in the master's study."

Her father Qin Guanlan is pretty good, so no wonder he named the two of them Hongxiu and Tianxiang.Her father Qin Guanlan probably wouldn't appreciate those maids who only wanted to seduce their masters and compete with their mistresses, and they would have been sold out long ago.

Qin Xiangxiang nodded: "That's good. I don't ask for nothing. I let you two run the foot shop, and I don't mean that your work will be in vain. If the foot shop runs well, you will make profits every year."

Until now, Hongxiu Tianxiang still thinks that the lady is just wishful thinking.The foot shop is in such a remote location, and the diners around it are all poor people who rely on their own efforts to make a living. As long as they don't lose money, they can make whatever money they can.

Qin Xiangxiang covered his mouth and yawned quietly: "I've always done whatever I think of, and you don't need to persuade me. I will definitely start a foot shop. By the way, Hongxiu , tell me about the drinking order."

The lady is serious.

No matter how much you lose money, you won't be able to compensate yourself.Hong Xiu then talked to Qin Xiangxiang about Sheng Guo's drinking order in detail.

It has been nearly a hundred years since the founding of the Sheng Kingdom. Except for occasional wars at the border, the situation is generally stable, and the lives of the people in the country are pretty good.Take Kyoto for example. On days when there is no curfew, the vendors do not rest until midnight.If a dandy wants to go shopping and have fun, there are all kinds of fun that he can't think of, and there is no money that he can't spend all his money.

In such a prosperous Kyoto, wine is naturally sold very well.

The Sheng Kingdom has enjoyed good weather and a bumper harvest in recent years. The government is not so strict on the wine regulations. It only monopolizes the sale of distiller's yeast and does not restrict ordinary people's behavior of making wine or the quantity of wine.

Hearing this, Qin Xiangxiang breathed a sigh of relief.

Hongxiu said: "Brewing wine is not easy, and I don't know how to make wine. Not to mention that it requires a lot of money to buy the raw materials for brewing. If the brewed wine doesn't taste good and no one buys it, it will be a loss."

Qin Xiangxiang covered his mouth and yawned again, not sure if he heard it: "We brew our own wine and sell it to diners who come to the foot shop."

As he spoke, he had returned to Qin Xiangxiang's small courtyard. Qin Xiangxiang lay down on the bed and directed the two maids: "You can do your own thing. I'll rest first."

I really slept as I said, without any worry at all.

The master is like this, what else can they do as maids?
Qin Xiangxiang's small courtyard only has one main room, two wing rooms, and a simple kitchen room.One of the penthouses was where Xu's mother slept. Hongxiu and Tianxiang had to squeeze into the other penthouse, which was short and small, and sat on the bed looking at each other in silence.

After a long time, Tian Xiang whispered: "Sister, how about we follow him before he is far away?" Hong Xiu has more ideas than her and is older than her. Tian Xiang has always listened to Hong Xiu.

Hongxiu shook her head: "We have no way to lead, and the deed of betrayal is in the hands of the eldest lady. Once we leave the Qin family, we will be runaway slaves. Judging from the look of the eldest lady, can you spare us?"

In the prosperous country, escaped slaves had no chance of gaining an upper hand in the government.If the master wants to beat them to death, the government will not make the decision for them.

Tianxiang frowned: "It doesn't matter, can we still survive until the master comes back?"

Hongxiu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said firmly: ""It can definitely be done.Although the lady seems unreliable, I don’t think she has any intention of persecuting us. "

Tianxiang pouted: "I don't have any thoughts of persecution yet, my sister's hands are rotten."

Hong Xiu said: "Our life was too good before. I secretly observed the lady's hands, and they were not as white and tender as ours."

"That's because she is jealous of us." Tian Xiang said.

Hong Xiu quickly pressed Tian Xiang's mouth and said with a solemn expression: "Don't say such words again. Madam, you are our master now. She is right. If you want the master to come back and open up the joints, you can only use money. And it’s a lot of money.”

Tianxiang thought of the good days in the past, and couldn't help but feel sad secretly, and said bitterly: "It's all my fault that bitch Zhong didn't allow us to go with the master. She is so small-minded, no wonder the master doesn't like her. She can have a son. No matter what, he is stupid."

Hongxiu felt helpless: "If we were in Mrs. Zhong's position, we might not be able to do better than her." Which matron can tolerate her husband being surrounded by two beautiful and considerate young women every day? ?Although the relationship between them and the master is innocent.Tianxiang changed the subject: "Just now, the lady said that she met Yang Dagui at Baoxiang Temple. What happened? Yang Dagui is the most loyal follower around me, how could he do something to hurt the lady?" And the lady said that she met Yang Dagui at Baoxiang Temple. The lady is quite good at gossiping, but it is shameless for a young lady who has not yet left the court to say that a servant is having a private affair with someone else.Didn't she think that her nonsense would have a great impact on the master?You know, when I impeach other officials for their improper behavior, they usually start with matters involving men and women.Anyway, Tianxiang was looking at Qin Xiangxiang, and he didn't like anything about it.

Hongxiu was also a little strange. Yang Dagui had always been kind and polite to them. After following the master for so many years, he had never seen him have second thoughts.Could it be that the master was really angry that Li Zhuang didn't help him at the Jinluan Palace, so he sent Yang Dagui... She suddenly shuddered.No, no, Yang Dagui, like the master, is a weak man. Then Li Zhuang has followers around him, how can he easily kill Li Zhuang?

But Hongxiu didn't dare to think about it further.After all, she was just a pen-server in the master's study.

"Have a rest quickly, we don't have to worry about what the lady wants us to do." Hongxiu said, lying down on the narrow wooden bed and closing her eyes.

Tianxiang had no choice but to shut her mouth.

Qin Xiangxiang had long heard two maids whispering in the ear room.

She didn't even need to guess, she knew that the two of them were definitely talking about her.

But she remained calm and just turned over, her mind churning.In fact, she is not so calm on the surface. Most of what she showed today was bluff.Ever since Yang Dagui covered her mouth at Baoxiang Temple last night, her heart has been hanging in the air and has not fallen down.

But as soon as she opened her eyes this morning, her biological father and stepmother were gone, and the Zhong family also came. She had no time to pity herself, so she had to hurry up and brace herself against the storm.

She really wants to make money and take care of it for her father.Although she has not lived a very good life in the past ten years or so, her father still gives her money to buy sesame oil every year on the anniversary of her late mother’s death, right?

Running a foot shop is her only way to make money.

But the Zhou family's withdrawal from the engagement was really beyond her expectation.Forget it, she didn't want to marry Zhou Xu's sick son in the first place, but now they are adding insult to injury with such villainous behavior, she really looks down on the Zhou family.

After thinking about it in his mind, Qin Xiangxiang couldn't sleep, but he just lay down for a while and then got up.

She passed by the ear room and heard silence inside. She must have fallen asleep.For someone who has never done heavy work before, she must be extremely tired when she is forced to work.

Qin Xiangxiang did not wake them up, but went straight outside.She is going to the foot shop.

The Qin family currently has no guards at all. After Qin Xiangxiang went out from the side door by a familiar route, Mrs. Wang flashed out from behind.

Mrs. Wang narrowed her eyes and thought to herself, if the eldest lady stayed at home, she would have no chance.It seems that even God is helping her.

But after some drawing and revision, Mu Ting finally completed the slightly rough map of Kyoto.

Of course, it needs to be constantly improved.

Mu Ting put the map in his arms, listened to the stomach growls of his entourage, and said: "In Tianshui Alley, there is a shop selling Hu cakes. Sanlang and I will go to that shop later to buy some Hu cakes. "Tianshui Alley is several streets away from the foot shop here. They buy it and come back immediately, and no one else will notice them.

He is not without money, and he also wants to entertain his brothers in Kyoto and taste Kyoto's delicacies, but now he is hiding in someone else's territory, and the situation is unclear, so it is better to be cautious.

After thinking for a while, he asked again: "You guys have a good rest here, and we will come back as soon as we go."

As soon as Mu Ting and Zhu Sanlang left, Yao Erlang led the remaining brothers to lie down casually in the foot shop.

After a while, the door of the foot shop was opened from the outside, and a thin figure walked in slowly.
