Flowers are expensive

Chapter 431 Cabbage Crying 2
"Really?" Xixi took a look at Yuzhan, walked a few steps closer and smiled, "Since today is Miss Yuzhan's birthday, then I won't bother you to spend tonight with Qixiang. However, after today, please trouble Yuzhan Girl Zhang, don't come to Qixiang again."

Yuzhan was taken aback for a moment, and asked, "What does your mother mean by that?"

Xixi smiled and said: "Because Princess Qi is going to take a concubine for him, everyone is ready, just wait for him to go back to the capital and wear a wedding gown to get married. Miss Yuzhan is a smart person, so don't I need to say more about the rest?"

Yuzhan's expression changed slightly in an instant: "A concubine?"

"What... what concubine?" Qixiang came over confused and asked, "Who said you would take a concubine for me? My mother? Sister-in-law Liang, are you kidding me?"

"Dong'er fell at the gate just to announce the good news to you, little prince!" Xixi said to him with a smile, "Congratulations, little prince! Finally, the clouds opened and the moon was bright! This time you accept Concubine, who dares to say anything? Well, we won't bother you to reminisce about the past, but—" she said, turning to look at Yuzhan's face, "after today, please remember, Miss Yuzhan, don't He came to look for our little Qi, he has to go back to Beijing to marry a beautiful concubine."

"Really?" Qi Xiang still didn't believe it. You must know that he had mentioned wanting to take a concubine many times before, but his father and mother refuted it.Now that he was suddenly allowed to take a concubine, he became a little paranoid.

"What's the matter? Still don't believe it? If you don't believe me, go back and ask the wet nurse for your mother's letter, and read it carefully from beginning to end! The girl has been selected for you. She is said to be the daughter of a wealthy businessman in Bianjing City. She looks beautiful. , the temperament is completely different from Zuo Chanyin's! If you want to meet, you must like it heartily!"

Qixiang blinked his ignorant and innocent big eyes and asked again: "Really?"

"Are you finished?" Zhuang Yunxian asked impatiently beside her, "If you don't believe me, go back and read that letter! Who would forge Princess Qi's letter to coax you if you have nothing to do! But, I think you will I'm not free, are you? Liang Xixi, let's go first! When we get back, ask Mrs. You to write a letter to Princess Qi, saying that the young prince is still in the warm jade and fragrance, and he doesn't want to take concubines at all!"

"Sister-in-law Zhuang, you didn't hurt me like this, did you?" Qi Xiang hurriedly stopped Zhuang Yunxian and said.

"Forget it," Yuzhan said with an unhappy smile, "It seems that the young prince has no time to eat with Yuzhan today, and Yuzhan doesn't dare to delay any longer, so let's go now!"

"Miss Yuzhan..."

Without waiting for Qixiang to keep her, Yuzhan hurried out of the private room door and went straight downstairs.Qixiang didn't chase her either, and asked Xixi and Zhuang Yunxian excitedly: "Is it true? Is it true? You two sister-in-laws are not bored to entertain me, are they?"

"Who's bored? If it's really boring, I'll find Zhao Yuanyin for entertainment and I won't entertain you! It's true, Princess Qi wrote a letter to the wet nurse, saying that she has found a good family, and only waits for you to go back to worship and get married. "

"Which wealthy businessman's daughter in Bianjing City? Come and hear it!" Qixiang's little heart almost jumped out of joy.

Xixi and Zhuang Yunxian looked at each other, and said with a smile: "I made it up casually. Dong'er didn't tell me who the lady is, you can ask the wet nurse yourself!"

"Okay! I'll go back right away! Hehe... I'm going to take a concubine! I'm going to take a concubine!" Qi Xiang shook his head happily, he looked like an old man who was just released from the dungeon and was going to marry fifteen or sixteen Excited like a little girl.

Before the person walked out of the door, a rather familiar voice sounded outside: "Little prince, do you want some wine?"

Xixi turned her head and saw that it was Wu Ensheng.I haven't seen him for more than a month. Wu Ensheng has lost a lot of weight, and his face looks tired, which looks like the result of too much hard work.Wu Ensheng didn't expect to bump into Xixi here, and immediately blushed slightly, and lowered his head hastily, looking a little embarrassed and embarrassed.

"Stop it! Check out directly!" Qi Xiang waved with a joyful smile.

"Check out? But the table reserved for you has already been prepared in the kitchen. You know that this table cannot be refunded..."

"Didn't I tell you to pay the bill? I paid the bill together with the table, and nothing more will be served!" Qi Xiang said with the expression that my young master likes to throw money today.

"Yes, little prince!" Wu Ensheng hurriedly turned and left as if he had been granted a pardon.Xixi put her hips on her hips and asked him, "Hey, I haven't eaten yet! What a waste of you! You don't feel sorry for it just because you don't spend your money?"

"My brother will still care about me for this little money?" Qi Xiang smiled so brightly.

"I'll make a fuss!" Because the banknotes that Qixiang brought with him were almost spent, and the expenses for dealing with Yuzhan were all taken from Prince You's Mansion, so Yuan Yin didn't care, but Xixi felt distressed.Every time I see the bills that Qixiang brought back, I feel angina and pain, and I will always wail: "Where is the misty rain? What is the misty rain? It's a gold-selling cave! No, it's the black hole of the sun!"

"Then why don't you pack it up and go back?" Qixiang asked with a smile.

Xixi thought for a while and said: "You go back first, the nurse is still waiting for you! Just leave the rest to me. Packing is for sure, you can't waste it like this! You go first, I will clean up Endgame!"

Qixiang turned around and left.Not long after, Wu Ensheng came back with a bill.Xixi reached out and took a look at the amount at the bottom, and couldn't help feeling angina again: "This Qixiang! What did you eat that cost more than 200 taels of silver? Did he just make the money into flowers and put it on the table? This prodigal thing Son, why didn't you destroy the Qi Palace?"

Zhuang Yunxian, who was sitting opposite and drinking tea, said with a smile: "It's not my own, so the defeat will naturally be quick."

"My God!" Xixi glanced at the menu, shook her head and said, "Concubine Yang likes to eat lychees, and he even gave Yuzhan the whole lychee feast, and the ice alone cost me 40 taels of silver. Heart! There are only 200 dishes in total, and it cost more than [-] taels of silver! How can he be a master of killing all flowers? He is a master of prodigals!"

"Ma'am," Wu Ensheng asked, interrupting Xixi carefully, "is it true that the food and drinks are not served?"

"Why not? He doesn't want to eat, so he can always pack it, right? Send it all to Prince You's Mansion!" Xi Xi ordered Wu Ye to go downstairs to pay the bill while collecting the bill.When Wu Ensheng was about to leave, Xixi stopped him and asked, "Are you really planning to work here all the time?"

Mother Yin approached Wu Ensheng before, and told him Cuiyue's proposal, but he still politely declined, and continued to work as an errand in Baoyun Building as a waiter.

Wu Ensheng nodded and said, "It's good to be here."

"Why don't you go back to the workshop? Sister Cuiyue hasn't found a good helper yet!"

"Thank you, Ma'am, for your kindness." Wu Ensheng shook his head and said, "I really don't plan to go back to the workshop. It's good to be here now. Although I'm tired, it's okay."

"Actually, you don't have to worry about what the people in the workshop who used to live in the Ci'an Department say. As long as you have the ability, who would dare to say more? I think you should go back and help Sister Cuiyue! Seeing her makeup shop It’s going to be reopened, there’s a lack of a clerk on the cabinet, it’s better if you go to her place than here now?”

Wu Ensheng still shook his head and said, "I don't dare to bother Shopkeeper Long anymore, and I'd like to thank you, Madam. If there's nothing wrong, I'll go down first and order packing."

Seeing that he was so persistent, Xixi couldn't say anything more, so she nodded and said, "Go! However, if you change your mind, you can go to Sister Cuiyue at any time."

After Wu Ensheng left, the three chatted in the private room and waited for Wuye to come back.Just as Wu Ye opened the door and came in, she was about to tell Xixi about the discount from the shopkeeper, when a person suddenly slipped in behind her, which startled her, and when she looked back, it turned out to be cabbage!
Wuye has always hated Kalan very much, so she immediately stood in front of her and said, "Hey, Ganlan, what are you doing here if you're not serving Miss Xuanzhen at the Zhang residence?"

"You..." Ganlan looked a little anxious, pushed away the turnip leaves, knelt down in front of Xixi and said, "I have seen the empress! I have seen Mrs. Ying!"

"Kalan?" Xixi looked down at her and asked, "What's the matter? Didn't you stay in Zhang's house?"

After Wuye stood firm, she said coldly: "I must not be able to stay in Zhang's house any longer! Hey, Ganlan, get up quickly, don't scare your mother!"

Cabbage shook her head vigorously, lying on the ground and crying.Wuye stepped forward and pulled her up, and said admonishingly: "Why are you crying? Your empress is pregnant, and you are bumped, can you afford it? Don't cry!"

"Is there something wrong, Kalan?" Xixi asked.

Gan Lan lowered her head with tears in her eyes and said: "Your Majesty, I beg you, I really don't want to stay in Zhang's house!"

"Yo," Wuye Chaoshou said sarcastically, "Now think about Prince You's Mansion? Didn't you just flatter Miss Xuanzhen of yours back then? What's the use of begging your mother now? Yours The wife who sold her body was given to Tang Xuanzhen, if you want to cry, you should cry to Tang Xuanzhen!"

"Your Majesty!" Gan Lan knelt down again and said, "The servant knows that Miss Xuanzhen is the master of the servant now. But the servant also came out of the Prince You's Mansion anyway, and has been staying in the Prince You's Mansion since he was sold by his parents. , I haven’t been to any other place again. In the place of Zhang’s mansion, the servant is unwilling to stay alive! If I want to stay any longer, the servant wants to die! The servant knows that he is wrong, and the servant should have said everything long ago. Miss Xuanzhen knew about that blessing meeting at all..."

"Okay," Xixi interrupted her, "The matter of the prayer meeting is over, so don't mention it again. What's the matter? Did you embarrass me?"

Cabbage shook her head vigorously, tears shed a few drops: "Guan Guan may be okay, he doesn't care at all! He didn't even go to Miss Xuanzhen's room on the wedding night! Now he sent Xuanzhen Miss Zhen is in the northernmost courtyard, as if no one in our courtyard is there, and never asks a question."

"That's okay, at least he didn't bother you, did he?"

"He didn't bother us, but Mrs. Ash was the one who cleaned up our yard every now and then in different ways. From time to time, she called Miss Xuanzhen over, made tea and water for her, rubbed her shoulders and beat her back, Make a small dish or something, every time she goes back, she will get angry, either scolding or punishing, the slaves have been beaten several times, and there are still bruises on their bodies now!" The more Kalan said, the more sad she became, tears streaming down her face Falling down.

"Thinking about it, I know," Zhuang Yunxian said to Xixi, "Then Ashi Achana dares to beat you, let alone Tang Xuanzhen. That Zhang Xianchu is really afraid of internal fear, right? Sure enough, you got the nickname right! What a coward!"

Gan Lan took over the words and said: "Master Zhang never goes to Mrs. Ashi's yard, nor to Miss Xuanzhen's. He always lives with Aunt Duoxia, and Aunt Duoxia is in charge of everything in the house. But Duoxia Aunt Xia used to be Mrs. Ashi’s dowry, so she didn’t dare to take too much care of her. The people in our yard would be called over from time to time to be scolded and beaten to vent their anger on her! Madam, please do me a favor! Go on, the servant will really die! The servant has served Madam You for so many years, I beg Madam to show kindness and ask the servant to go back! The servant has appointed a cow and a horse to repay the mother and wife!"

"Get up first!" Xixi ordered.

Wuye pulled Kale up from the ground and said: "I'm only here to cry now, what did I do earlier? If you had revealed the matter of Tang Xuanzhen and Mrs. Zhong earlier, it would still be credited to you, so I can't say it right now." Use it! You are now a member of the Zhang family, Madam, can you go and get it back? You put it lightly!"
