Flowers are expensive

Chapter 383 Hurry up if you want to hit the door 2
"Damn girl!" The middle-aged woman grabbed a chicken on the table and threw it at Xixi.Xixi dodged deftly, pointed at the middle-aged woman with a kitchen knife and said with a smile: "Speaking of which, what are you doing wasting things? I don't want to work overtime here either! If you bump into me, I can get off work and watch the fun, you guys It would be nice to catch that little girl and go back, how about it! How about, mother-in-law and ancestors, you can set a demonstration for their brothers by yourself?"

The four servants next to him couldn't help snickering.The face of the middle-aged woman was so angry that she turned red and white, but she didn't dare to knock on the door again. Instead, she sat down and said, "Okay, use the concubine to crush me, right? I won't knock on the door." I’m here, waiting for Mother Yin’s return! I still can’t believe it, she dares to hide us from Misty Rain! Lanier is naturalized, she is a woman who hides a sister at home and wants to do it What? Do you want to do that kind of hidden business? Hmph, aren't you afraid that the government will punish her?"

"Okay, you want to sit down, sit here slowly." Xixi finished speaking and went to the kitchen.

While she was not in the yard, the middle-aged woman yelled to the room again: "Ni'er, you can't escape, come out obediently and go back with me, what's the matter? Isn't it just to apologize to the Huo family master?" Don't really break up, that's embarrassing! Think about it, how long can Mama Yin control you? Do you think there are no rules for plugging Misty Rain? Don't forget, your deed of prostitution is still with the mother in charge! Think To have a better life in the future, get out early!"

After finishing speaking, the middle-aged woman beckoned those few to pry the window.When the brothers were wrestling with the window, Xixi suddenly came out holding a tray. Seeing their posture, she hurriedly smiled and asked, "Are you tired, how many people? Take a break, it's still early anyway, Take a sip of tea and pry it away slowly!"

The middle-aged woman glanced at Xixi's tray, turned her face away and smiled contemptuously and said, "Who is going to drink the cheap tea from your tea shop? Take it away!"

"You don't drink tea when you come to the tea house, are you here to listen to the book?" Xi Xi smiled and put the things on the table one by one, "Don't worry, I used the best tea in our tea house, the top Lu'an Guapian I ordered the tea myself, fried the sesame seeds and peanuts this morning, the red dates and goji berries are all top quality, and the deep-fried pastry was not made overnight, so I can’t find a second cup of such a good bowl of tea anywhere in the city!”

"Hmph! I don't know how many people have drunk it. It's so dirty, take it away!" The middle-aged woman took out a silk handkerchief from her waist and covered her nose.

"Oh, this old lady," Xi Xi laughed while putting some tea fruit, "If you insist on saying this, then there is something on my throat that I want to say, I'm afraid you're not happy! You don't like it How many people have drank from my cup, how many people have I not disliked you sleeping with!"

"You..." The middle-aged woman grabbed the bowl of tea in front of her and dropped it on the ground, breaking it to pieces, "Try again!"

"If you can't say it, you're about to fall out?" After Xixi sat down, she picked up a bowl of tea and drank it happily.

"Little girl, don't put your nose on your face! How long have you been in Jingyou City? You don't go out to inquire, I, Feng Niang, are not easy to mess with! If you say something ugly, I will tear it up immediately." your mouth!"

Xixi held the teacup and drank while replying: "You don't need to go out to inquire. I can tell by the anger you are today, and the posture of yelling and drinking when you enter the door. You are not easy to mess with."

"It's good to know! When my Feng Niang was living in Jingyou City, I didn't have any pictures of you little girl!"

"I know, I know, but ah, I have to tell you, I can't compare to you for being a fool, and you don't have to go out to find out my name, I don't have a name here, I just make a living. As the saying goes, bare feet are not afraid of wearing shoes, you work hard with me, and you are the one who loses, what do you think?"

The middle-aged woman turned her head and stared at Xi Xi and asked, "Hey, what about threatening me? Only if you threaten me, can I go out from here obediently?"

"I didn't want to let you out, even if you sleep here on the floor tonight, I don't mind at all, but ah," Xixi pointed to the teacup that was broken by the middle-aged woman and said, "How should I count it? I will write it down for you. The teacup just now counts as five taels of silver, each bowl of tea here is worth four taels of silver, and the other four colors of tea fruit are cheaper for you, a total of ten taels of silver, add up... Calculate , how much should it be? About 35 taels of silver!"

"Who are you cheating on?" The middle-aged woman glared.

Xixi smiled and said: "Who is cheating? Don't you just cheat you? You are sitting here and let me cheat. If I don't cheat, I will feel sorry for myself!"

"If you want to take money from me, stop dreaming!"

"Okay, don't give it now, I will go to your Misty Rain later."

"If you can enter that door, I will convince you!"

"What am I going to do? Is that place I can go casually? I will set up a small stall outside and tell people who come and go. Tell me that tonight you lead four young young men who don't know much about the world. Mom is not coming to my place to drink tea. Don’t worry, it’s just for you and me. I’ve appointed you to speak oily, spicy and hot, and keep the fragrance in your mouth. That’s worthy of you, an elite in the prostitution world. Woolen cloth!"

"You have a small mouth! You can't stop talking, can't you?"

Xixi squinted at her, pursed her lips and said with a smile: "What's wrong? You want to tear my mouth off again? I can write without a mouth! Can you still cut off my hands? If you really cut off my hands , are you pointing at the mother in charge of your house to protect you? Rest it! She will be the first to send you to the Yamen at that time. I said, what are you doing here? Do you need to get angry in such a hurry? ? Have a sip of tea to rest your breath, and wait for Yin's mother to come back, won't you?"

"Yo," the middle-aged woman said with a glance at Xixi, "if you have such a small mouth, let's stuff it with Misty Rain, how many men will we have to like!"

Xixi retorted: "So, in order to give you something to eat, I won't go to that muddy water, isn't that enough loyalty?"

The middle-aged woman couldn't help smiling, picked up the teacup on the table and looked at Xixi, then asked softly, "Where is the girl from?"

"What are you doing? Check your household registration?"

"It's nothing, just asking casually. I see that you have some knowledge. I'm afraid that Mama Yin can't trap you in the tea house?"

Xixi turned her head and smiled and asked, "Want to introduce me to a job? I heard that the new mother in charge of Misty Rain only cares about her own children, not those raised by her stepmother, right?"

"Did Lanier tell you? You still say she's not here?"

"What about me? You insist that she's here, just knock on the door?" Xixi raised her eyebrows and said provocatively.

The middle-aged woman realized that Xixi was not an easy character to deal with, so she didn't get angry anymore, but said in a calm tone: "I know Lanier is there, and I also came here on the orders of the head mother." Take her back. As for how to punish her, I said it doesn’t count, I just ran errands. But I have to remind you that hiding here is not a long-term solution. Sooner or later, she will be found by the mother in charge. At that time, can she have a good life?"

Xixi lowered her head and thought for a while and said, "Okay, I have an idea for your attitude."

"Tell me, girl."

"Let those four doors stay outside, and you come in with me, how about it?"

"Okay, let's do it like this!" The middle-aged woman readily agreed, and greeted the four servants to wait outside the door first.

Xixi closed the backyard door, and only then did Lanier open the door.When Lanier saw the middle-aged woman, she hid behind Xixi in panic.

"Why are you hiding, Nier? You only think you can hide?"

"Fengniang..." Lanier begged, "Just pretend you haven't seen me here!"

The middle-aged woman named Feng Niang sat down and said, "Haven't I seen you? A servant of the Huo family saw you entering Mama Yin's tea house and reported to the mother in charge. Where else can you hide? I can't take you back, and I have to be caught by someone else!"

Lanier wiped away her clear tears again and said: "I'm not going back anyway! Once I go back, the mother in charge of the courtyard appointed me to apologize to that surnamed Huo and serve him. He will let him go when the time comes." Me? I must die by his hands! Feng Niang, you and I have been stuck in misty rain for many years, can you show some kindness? I will pretend that I have not seen me tonight. I will pack up and leave the city tomorrow morning. Never coming back!"

"This is not a good idea." Xixi helped Lanier sit down and said, "You are naturalized, and you will be brought back sooner or later if you run away privately. At that time, you will be speechless." gone."

"Listen," Feng Niang pointed to Xixi and said to Lan Nier, "this girl is the one with a clear mind! How long can you hide? Unless you are like Yin'er, you can get out of the way and leave Here, or else that Huo will have to arrest you! That kid has taken a fancy to you before, when Mama Zhang was there, and she never let you serve the young master of a small family like him, and that's why he fell in love with him. Resentment. Now he can spend money to support you for a whole month, but can't he take care of you?"

Hearing this, Lan Nier rolled two lines of tears again, held Xixi's hand and cried: "Miss Liang, Mother Yin said that you know someone from the palace, do you think you can help me clear it up? I Some private houses are all entrusted to you to handle this matter, can you help me anyway?"

"Really?" Feng Niang asked without waiting for Xixi to speak, "Girl, do you still know people in the palace? I don't know who? If you can say a word or two, then the matter of her leaving the country It's easy!"

Xixi thought to herself, why did I become a professional householder who quit my citizenship?If you want to earn money empty-handed, this business is quite profitable.She smiled and said: "I don't know any important people, but I have a friend who works for the palace."

"Speaking of the palace, I'm also a little angry," Feng Niang pointed to Lan Nier and said, "The four of them were originally trained by Zhang's mother, but now they are all put in limbo and left to me. The first two One day, the mother in charge of the hospital received a post from Wangfu, saying that there was a banquet on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, and I needed a few supporting girls. I thought to myself that the four of them would not be there. As expected, the mother in charge of the hospital replied to Wangfu today. , will lead the girls she brought to the palace to go to the Mid-Autumn Festival night, think about it, it's really annoying!"

Xixi asked casually: "Is there such a thing? The palace also invites the girls to Mid-Autumn Festival?"

"That is to go to meet the scene, dance and sing a song, or perform some special skills to create a lively atmosphere! A big family, which one won't invite two people who can sing and dance? Where is the palace hosting a banquet? Naturally, I picked it from Misty Rain on the plug. There have been many people hanging around in front of the mother in charge these two days. Who doesn’t want to join in the fun in the palace? But I know that it’s useless for anyone to say good things! Mother in charge The heart is long."

Lanier wiped away her tears and said, "Isn't it? The ones she raised are like treasures, but we don't seem to want them anymore. The palace hasn't held a Mid-Autumn Festival banquet in three years, right? It's so easy to do it this year , she appointed to send the few in her hand to the palace first!"

Xixi snorted softly and asked, "What are you sending it for? Are you waiting to be picked?"

"Does it need to be said?" Feng Niang sneered, "If you can show a good face at the night banquet in the palace, it is nothing new to be chosen by the prince to be a concubine. Regardless of the prince, it is just that you are under the prince's hand." Those generals and officers have taken a fancy to it, it is also a good place to go! Miss, you don’t know, the Palace has indeed not held any banquet for three years. This time I heard that Mrs. You of the Palace personally sent a post to invite the Prince The generals under his command, I don’t know how lively it will be! On such an occasion, tell me, which girl doesn’t want to join in?”
