Flowers are expensive

Chapter 268 Zhuang Yunxian Appears

"I think so too," Cuiyue nodded and said, "When Mrs. Huiyou mentioned it to me, I was too embarrassed to bother her, so I decided to pick another one myself. Since there are many people from outside the city, I asked Aunt Zhong, please help me find someone who is honest and reliable."

Lihua asked, "Aunt Zhong came to you again?"

"I came here a few days ago and thanked me by mentioning a few snacks she made herself. After talking for a while, she left. It was not easy for her in the city. She rented one of the rooms in a small courtyard in the north. Sooner or later, she has to take care of her sick son."

"What happened to her son?"

Just as he was speaking, Zhong's voice sounded outside the courtyard.Lu'er opened the door and invited her in, only to see her with a kerchief wrapped around her head and an old basket in her hand, and she walked in with steaming mouth, and said as she walked, "Miss Long, I'm here for you. A good letter..." Before she finished speaking, she suddenly saw Lihua, stopped quickly, turned around and trotted two steps in front of Lihua, bowed and said: "It turns out that Mrs. Lihua of the Wangfu is also here, ouch , I'm really sorry."

Lihua helped her up and asked: "You just said good faith, did you find a nanny?"

Mrs. Zhong nodded repeatedly and said: "I found it! As soon as Miss Long told me, I called to inquire. Yesterday I met a fellow from my village, who happened to have just given birth to a baby, and the milk is full! She is not sick, and is strong. , now in the city I just want to find a job, but there is one thing, she still has a son and mother-in-law with her, I wonder if Miss Long would mind?"

Cuiyue said: "Is her son still young?"

"It's only one year old, so well-behaved! Maybe I can be a companion for the young master in your stomach. Her family is farming, and it was snowed and robbed by bandits, so she escaped. The man is outside The seller hasn’t heard from the seller yet, so she can only bring her son and mother-in-law here first.” Zhong said a lot of words in one breath, panting for a long time, “Come here all the way, Miss Lao Lu’er give me some hot water to drink. drink."

Cuiyue hurriedly led Zhong Shi into the side hall, and ordered Lu'er to make a pot of hot tea.Zhong held the tea bowl and drank two bowls of hot tea, then put down the tea bowl with a satisfied face and talked about what happened just now: "Miss Long, the introduction I made to you is sure to be correct. You are the benefactor of my family Zhen Er. Can I still cheat you? Logically speaking, I should come and take care of you in person, but you also know that my son is still sick, and if I'm leaving, he won't be taken care of."

Cui Yue said with a smile: "You old man can introduce me to me very much! Why do you need to come and serve me in person? When do you think that person will come? I don't mind if she brings her son and mother-in-law. Just two bowls of rice."

Mrs. Zhong bowed her hands to Cuiyue and said with a smile: "I just said that you have a good heart, and you will definitely agree! Okay, I will bring the three of them over later. As for the monthly money, she doesn't want anything now, just ask It’s enough to keep the children and mother-in-law alive.”

"The monthly money is easy to talk about, and I will definitely not treat them badly."

"That's fine," Zhong said, standing up, "I won't bother you! I still have to go to the temple!"

Cuiyue was curious for a moment, and asked: "What is your old man doing in the temple? Ask your son for safety?"

Mrs. Zhong glanced at Li Hua, and said a little embarrassedly: "It's a bit embarrassing to say it in front of Mrs. Li Hua."

Lihua raised her eyelids and asked, "Why are you embarrassed? Just say what you have to say!"

Mrs. Zhong smiled and bowed to Lihua and said, "Isn't it because of my Zhen'er? She is more fortunate than me. It is a great blessing to meet a noble person like Mrs. You and live in the palace now! I The mother is grateful to Mrs. You for her great kindness, oh, of course I am also grateful to Mrs. Lihua! After thinking about it, I found that Mrs. You did not need anything, so I went to the temple to pray for her. Today is the fourth day. I heard from my sister-in-law in the monastery that running with sincerity for a month is a public virtue!"

Cuiyue nodded and said: "You really have a heart! In such a cold day, it's really rare for you to run around the city and temple, and also serve your sick son!"

Zhong Shi pursed her lips and said with a smile: "Compared to Mrs. You's great kindness, what am I? I know I used to feel sorry for Zhen'er, but now she doesn't want to pay attention to me. Peace of mind! Mrs. Ewha, did Zhen'er cause any trouble for you in the mansion?"

Lihua said casually: "It's all right, no more trouble."

"Then I'm relieved!" Zhong said with a smile all over her face, "She is a bit impatient, if she offends the lord or you somewhere, please do speak well in front of the lord, her temper is exactly the same as Xuanrong's." My son, they are all very strong... By the way, the prince of the mansion is back?"

"I'm back, Mrs. Zhong has something to do with the prince?" Lihua felt that Zhong seemed to be asking this question intentionally.But Mrs. Zhong quickly waved her hand and said: "Don't worry too much, I'm just asking casually! I'm afraid that my Zhen'er will not know the etiquette when meeting the prince, and I'm afraid that he will offend him. However, she has met the prince in Dali before. It wouldn't be so impolite."

Lihua followed the words and said: "You don't have to worry about that, they met yesterday."

"Really?" Mrs. Zhong was very surprised, and hurriedly asked, "Have you met? Oh, hello, that...then my Zhen'er is not rude, right?"

"It's not rude at all. I also made several vegetarian pastries for Zhao Yuanyin to taste. They all taste good!"

Upon hearing this, Zhong's smile became even stronger, and she almost burst out laughing.She patted her thigh excitedly and said with a smile: "My stupid daughter only knows how to cook, she learned a little cooking from her aunt in the early years, but she never thought she would dare to show it off in front of the prince, I'm not ashamed! By the way, does the lord think it's delicious?"

"No, it's just that the taste is not as good as that made by Tang Xuanrong's mother."

"Oh," Zhong nodded again and again, "That's natural! She is young, after all, she is not as skilled as my sister-in-law, but after she practices more, she will be able to make the taste that the prince is satisfied with! Madam, if you want to Just tell her what to eat, she won't disappoint you!"

Lihua smiled lightly and said: "She is the nurse's sister now, I have to call her Aunt in terms of seniority, how can I order her! But you, you should go to the mansion to see her."

Zhong sighed and shook his head, "Oh! How could I be so lucky! It's too late for her to hide from me! How can I come and go in and out of a place like the palace at will?"

"How about I find a reason to let you go into the mansion to meet her some other day?"

Mrs. Zhong was overjoyed, bowing again and again: "If that's the case, I really want to kowtow to thank you! Madam is so kind! There are few people in this city who can compare to you!"

Lihua waved her hand and said, "Stop bowing, I can't stand it! You go back first, and I'll send someone to tell you when I have a letter. By the way, where do you live now?"

Zhong told Lihua where to live, and left in a hurry.After she left, Lihua invited Cuiyue to visit the shop together.Unexpectedly, as soon as the two walked to the door, they saw a big letter on the door.Lihua was stunned for a moment, and stepped forward to push the door, but it was locked from the inside.She was about to go around and take a look at the back, but was startled by the sudden appearance of the sparrow spirit.

Que Ling chuckled, shook his head and said, "Auntie, don't worry about it, the back door is closed too!"

Lihua asked: "What's going on? Who sealed it for me?"

"Auntie, don't you think about who you are? Who in the whole city dares to seal your shop?"

Lihua suddenly reacted, clapped her hands together and said, "Zhao Yuanyin!"

"Hey... Auntie, do you understand now? As for me," Que Ling pointed at himself innocently, "I'm just waiting here for you and passing on the message to you."

"What?" Lihua was so angry that the corners of her mouth were about to twitch.Zhao Yuanyin, you are too much!Play dirty tricks?It's boring!

"Uncle Master said, you have to go to him if you want to get back the key of the shop."

Lihua clenched her fists and screamed angrily, "Rogue! Local ruffian! Local tyrant! Landlord Zhao Papi! Zhao Yuanyin, you are going too far! Seal my shop, and I will seal your eyes, ears, mouth, and nose!"

Both Que Ling and Cui Yue laughed.Cuiyue persuaded: "Don't be ashamed on the street, go back and say something nice, and ask him to get the key back! Otherwise, our shop will not be able to continue."

"Go back? Beg him for mercy?" Lihua held her head high and said in a majestic tone, "I won't go! This girl is also virtuous!"

"The two couples are still talking about integrity!" Cuiyue said with a smile, "You go back and act coquettishly, and I'm sure he will hand over the key. If you want to argue with him, maybe when the prince gets angry, you won't even have the key." I can't even see the shadow! Don't forget, he is not the old Xie Manting!"

"Hmph! I won't go!" Lihua was really angry!Why?Tell me, tell me, why?Back then, they coaxed people to Jingyou City, but now they have sealed off their shops!Does this show off his ability to be the lord of a city?I, Qin Lihua, have integrity and integrity!snort!

"Auntie, why do you have to be so angry with the master and uncle? If you don't go back and beg for mercy, he really won't give you the key."

Lihua waved her hand and said, "Let him go! What is a key? Let alone a key, I don't even want him now!"

The two girls, Que Ling Cui Yue and Wu Ye Lu Er, laughed so hard that they turned their backs.Lihua was so angry that her mouth was crooked, and she told Wuye, "You, go back! Tell that self-righteous guy that this girl is in a bad mood today to the lowest point of the East African Rift Valley, and she doesn't want to go back!"

Wuye asked: "Then do you want to live in Miss Long's house again?"

"Don't ask me that! Go back, don't follow me anymore!" Lihua turned her head and left after speaking.Wuye didn't know what to do for a while, Cuiyue got really angry when she saw Lihua, she hurriedly said to Que Ling: "You should move faster, hurry up and have a look!"

Que Ling folded her hands and said slowly: "Don't worry, she's safe in the city anyway!"

"In case you run away without a trace again, let's see if your master uncle is in a hurry?"

"It's useless for my aunt to play the trick of disappearing suddenly, and I don't want to see whose city this is. It's not so easy for her to hide!"

Cuiyue looked helplessly at the door of the shop and said, "When are these two going to fight? Can my shop still be open!"

Besides, Lihua walked furiously all the way, without a destination, just wandering around the street like that.As she walked, she muttered in her mouth: "I won't act like a baby! I won't beg for mercy! I won't, I won't, I won't, I won't, I won't! Huh, I steamed me after eating! How dare you close my shop? Here If you don't leave me, you have a place to stay! Don't come after me when I'm gone!"

When she was thinking about it, a figure suddenly flashed in front of her eyes, as if she looked familiar.She took a closer look, and it turned out to be the middle-aged man she met in Haizimiao last time!She immediately chased after him, but accidentally collided with a small fragrant sedan that came out of the alley next to her, and fell on her back to the ground.

The little fragrant sedan stopped, and the girl next to her quickly helped Li Hua up and asked, "Madam, are you alright?"

Lihua rubbed her sore buttocks, and muttered, "It's unlucky! Why is it so unlucky today! You can choke to death if you drink water! It's all right, let's go!" After she finished speaking, she started to chase after her.

At this time, the person in the sedan chair suddenly lifted the curtain and quickly got out, glanced in the direction where Lihua was running, was quite surprised, and said to himself: "It's her? Why did she come here?"
