Houmen Yixiang

Chapter 265 Uncle Xiao's Resentment

"You mean, on the surface, they are busy seeking justice for Suyifang, but secretly plan to expose them?"

"That's right! Wen Ruxiang is very smart. If I let her know that Ah Xue and I have known each other for a long time, I'm afraid it won't be so easy for her to be hooked! Also," Lu Xinyan paused, "I met Wen Ruxiang yesterday, and she said let me Give her all the future designs, she will give me [-]% of the net profit, and give me three days to think about it."

"[-]%? Has she lost her mind?" Ye Shuang sneered coldly, "According to your design, as long as no one is playing tricks in the middle, you can make money while lying down, so you should get [-]%!"

What she gave to Lu Xinyan was [-]%, and the result after the two colluded many times, even Ye Shuang felt guilty.

That Wen Ruxiang actually has the face to say [-]%, if it was in front of her, Ye Shuang would probably spray her with saliva on the spot.

"The grudge between Wen Ruxiang and I is too deep. Whether it's Suyifang or Axue, I won't let her succeed. We must seek justice!"

"Well, I'll give you Suyifang right now!" Ye Shuang said generously, "You can do whatever you want in the future, and I will fully cooperate where my cooperation is needed!"

This is not the result she wanted!Lu Xinyan sighed, "Aunt Ye, I have just entered the town government's mansion, and I have to get used to a lot of things. Fortunately, my father-in-law said that although he has been bedridden for more than ten years, he is very generous and easy to talk, but that mother-in-law, hey, can't say anything! It's not that Xiao Shizi is still on marriage leave, he is in the mansion every day, and has troubled me a hundred and eighty times. There is also the noble concubine and aunt in the palace. When I went to visit her for the first time, she said that she would pick two concubines for Xiao Shizi, After Xiao Shizi refused to give birth to a child, she said that if I don't give birth to a Xiao Shizi within a year, she will have to be a Saiyan!"

Aunt, I'm sorry, in order to achieve my goal, I can only let you take the blame first!Lu Xinyan said silently.

Although Ye Shuang is not married, she also understands that the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is an eternal problem. No matter how smart you are, if you meet a muddled and unreasonable mother-in-law, you will only have a headache!Now with the addition of a high-ranking and powerful concubine and aunt, I'm afraid that these days will be in dire straits.

If she threw all the Suyifang to her at this time, and became the shopkeeper herself, how could she handle so many things?

Even if she could, Ye Shuang couldn't bear it if she was kept busy day and night, ignoring the relationship between husband and wife and her own body.

"Then how about this, Suyifang is still the same as before, I will take care of it first, you will find a suitable candidate in the future, and I will hand it over slowly." Ye Shuang said: "You just married, please your in-laws, husband and wife love, give birth Xiao Shizi, the most important thing is to gain a firm foothold in the Duke's Mansion! Money is something outside of your body, just earn it slowly in the future."

"Thank you, Aunt Ye, I know you love me, I know." Lu Xinyan hugged Ye Shuang with a smile, and the trickery flashed in her eyes.

Qingtong and Xiaohe secretly gave her a thumbs up.

Lu Xinyan returned them a look proudly: Don't look at who I am, Miss!

-

Palace within the palace.

The queen lay sideways on the imperial concubine couch, resting her eyes with one hand on her forehead.

Ice was placed on both ends of the imperial concubine's couch, and two young maids stood at one end, each holding a big cattail leaf fan and fanning it with great effort.

Nanny Xu, the queen's personal nanny, stood aside, her face was listless, and she didn't know what she was thinking.

Except for the sound of the palm-leaf fan and the slight and shallow sound of breathing, the Zhonggong was extremely quiet, as if time stood still.

After an unknown amount of time, the queen woke up slowly, and Nanny Xu immediately brought a cup of tea at room temperature.

The queen frowned and complained: "It's really boring to drink such a hot thing on such a hot day."

"Your majesty, you have a bad stomach and can't eat ice." Mother Xu hurriedly said.

She has served the queen since she was a child, and she is very clear about the queen's body.

The queen also knew about her health, but she just complained verbally, after taking a cup of tea, she said, "Nurse, do you have something to say to Ben Gong?"

Yesterday she accompanied the Queen Mother till night, when she came back she was tired and went to rest early.

Early this morning I went to pay my respects to the Empress Dowager again, dealt with some palace affairs, took a short break after lunch, and only now had time to ask Madam Xu.

Nanny Xu winked at the two little maids, who were blessed and withdrew.

"Empress, my servant went to see Miss Wen and Miss Yao yesterday, and everything went according to plan. Now the outside world knows that Miss Yao's disappearance was caused by Princess Zhuzhu, and everyone is very shameful to her."

Emperor Longde fell ill. Although outsiders don't know how serious it is, martial law has already begun in the palace. The noble ladies who walk around the palace on weekdays consciously reduce the chances of entering the palace to avoid getting into trouble.

Wen Ruxiang used to go to the palace to visit Wu Wan, but at this juncture, it was not easy to enter the palace, so the queen found an excuse to let Nanny Xu go out of the palace to share news with Wen Ruxiang.

"Then what about the attitude of the Duke of Zhenguo and Xiao Shizi?"

"The Duke of Zhen's government probably doesn't know about it yet, but Shizi Xiao said he believed in the princess, and threatened to find out the truth!" Madam Xu observed her words and said: "This servant thinks that Shizi Xiao has been dazzled by beauty. Under certain circumstances, I still refuse to believe it.”

The queen smiled indifferently, "If Princess Zhuzhu has something to do, Shizi Xiao will abandon her like a shoe. How can such a cold and snobbish man deserve Changping's infatuation?"

"Your Majesty is right." Madam Xu said, "The more infatuated he is now, the more disappointed he will be when the truth is found out in the future. Once a man is disappointed, no matter how beautiful you are, it won't help. Here comes the opportunity."

"It's okay, that's the reason. Is there anything else?"

"Your Majesty, there is something, I don't know if I should say it or not?" Madam Xu hesitated.

"Just say anything."

Madam Xu thought for a long time, "When I was about to return to the palace yesterday, I saw a person."

"Who?"

"Lieutenant Leng, Leng Xun of the Duke of Zhen's Mansion."

"Him?" The queen was taken aback, "Didn't he already... that is the emperor himself..."

The queen settled down, "Are you sure you read it right!?"

Madam Xu said: "Your Majesty, even though this servant is old, she still has good eyesight. I met Colonel Leng a few times during banquets at the Prince's Mansion, and his appearance and figure are all the best among men. It's easy to see him once." I can remember that the servants are confident that they have read correctly."

The queen reached out to touch the tea cup at hand, "Does the people in Zhen Guo Gong's mansion know that he is back?"

"Looking at his attire, he should have sneaked into the capital in disguise. I guess we haven't met yet."

"Send someone to keep an eye on it." An ambiguous smile flashed across the queen's lips, "Maybe, this person can come in handy."

"Yes, ma'am."

This time, the palace maid Yuan Chun came in with panic, "Empress Empress, I just received a message from the empress dowager's side, saying that the emperor is not sick, but poisoned."

"Poisoned?" Mother Xu said in surprise, "Eunuchs test the emperor's three meals, how could he be poisoned?"

Her legs were so frightened that her legs went limp. If she was really poisoned and she couldn't find out who poisoned her, then the emperor would be furious and blood would flow like a river!
The current Emperor Longde is suspicious, maybe he will kill all the palace people who have come into contact with him!
She is the queen's personal nanny, and she has been in contact with the emperor so many times!
This is also the reason why Yuanchun panicked.

Because of Jiang Lin's private soldier case, although the queen escaped the crime by chance, it is obvious that Emperor Longde's trust in the queen has also dropped. Even if the queen is the lord of the first palace, she may not be able to protect the people around her!
Yuan Chun said: "The slaves don't know either, it was Ming Zhi Xiangjun who found out, just reported to the Empress Dowager, and the Empress Dowager is preparing to investigate all the people in the palace privately!"

Nanny Xu couldn't help but look at the queen, "Your Majesty, look at this..."

"If it comes, it will be safe. If the Empress Dowager investigates it privately, it means that she doesn't want the emperor to know. As long as the emperor doesn't know, this matter will not cause much trouble."

As soon as the queen finished speaking, a voice from a court lady came from outside, "Your Majesty, Eunuch Lin from the Longevity Palace is here."

"Please!"

Eunuch Lin is a celebrity around the queen mother, and everyone in the palace must give three points of color.

"This old slave sees the empress!"

"Eunuch Lin, get up!"

"Thank you, Empress."

"Eunuch Lin, come to the palace today, but what orders does the Empress Dowager have?"

"Going back to Empress Dowager, Empress Dowager dreamed about the late emperor last night. The late emperor said that he missed the emperor and several princes. He came back from the sky to look at it, and found that the whole palace was gray and dilapidated. The late emperor was very upset and directed at the empress dowager. The empress became angry. The empress dowager woke up in the morning and thought about it for a while, thinking that the palace was repaired once when the emperor ascended the throne. It has been more than ten years, and many palaces have long lost their color. I mean, to renovate the entire imperial palace." Eunuch Lin respectfully said: "The Empress Dowager sent this old slave to ask the Empress Dowager to discuss whether this move is feasible?"

The empress smiled gently: "Since the father entrusts dreams, I will follow the empress mother's advice in everything."

-

For the next two days, whenever Lu Xinyan was free, she would shut herself in the room and draw design drafts, and had no time to talk to others, which made Xiao Yichen look like a dissatisfied woman.

He originally thought that his daughter-in-law would finally not have to go out, so she could spend more time 'exercising' with him.

Unexpectedly, the daughter-in-law won't go out, but she doesn't allow him to come close, so she just kicks him out of the room and lets him play by himself, don't disturb her serious business.

Xiao Yichen was so angry that he wished he could tear down the door.

But the daughter-in-law whom I have tried everything possible to marry, will still pamper her to the end even on her knees.

With nowhere to vent all his strength, Qi Fei and Qiu Wuya suffered, and were caught fighting with his young master.

Not to mention the tricks, it's not the kind of ordinary moves, but the kind that will turn into panda eyes if you are not careful.

It made Qi Fei and Qiu Wuya complain endlessly, and they only hoped that such days would end sooner.

On the morning of the seventeenth, Lu Xinyan ate too much breakfast and gave it to Uncle Xiao who hadn't eaten meat for two days and was full of resentment. After a soothing good morning kiss, she took Qingtong and Xiaohe out of the house.

"Stay obediently at home and wait for me to come back. Don't go out to find the goblin, or your legs will be broken." The third!

Uncle Xiao's daughter-in-law complained, "Then you come back early."

Lu Xinyan kissed him again, "Well, be obedient, I'm leaving."

Uncle Xiao sent his wife away with resentful eyes.

This scene, just like the wife watching the husband go out to work, just lost everything.

Lu Xinyan went straight to Suyifang.

Pass the design draft that I have drawn in the past few days to Ye Shuang.

Ye Shuang would be surprised by Lu Xinyan's whimsical ideas every time, and this time she was so shocked that she couldn't recover for a long time, "This...this..."

"Aunt Ye, my thoughts are like this. Most of the wives and ladies in the high schools in Beijing have misunderstood me about the fake Yao Xue. , They will not buy the clothes of our Suyifang! Over there in Yixiangge is the Suyifang branch of the store with pallets. The styles I designed before I left are enough for Yixiangge to last for a while! So I plan, Another way. These pictures..."

She divided the design drafts into two piles, pointed to the pile that was piled up high and said: "Take the cheap route, ranging from one hundred yuan to one tael of silver. Ordinary people don't care about the grievances of those rich and powerful, at most It's just a joke after dinner! These are fashionable, high-quality, and extremely cost-effective. Some well-off and wealthy families will definitely rush to buy them. And..."

The corners of her mouth curled up slightly, and there was a hint of evil charm between her brows, "At this price, ordinary maids can buy two pieces a year. If those ladies and ladies find that the style they are wearing is not as good as the one hundred pennies bought by the maids... One thing, do you think they will take this resentment out on Wen Ruxiang?"

Xiao He blinked, "Miss, you are so treacherous! You not only want them to blame Wen Ruxiang, but because they offended you, you don't want them to wear nice clothes!"

Qingtong suddenly realized, "Xiao He is right, the lady is really treacherous! Those self-righteous ladies and ladies are always embarrassed to buy clothes for a few hundred yuan, which are the same clothes as ordinary people! At that time, they can only see if they can't wear them. , I’m too embarrassed to imitate, I guess don’t mention how aggrieved it is!”

Lu Xinyan didn't expect that the two of them would see through her mind so quickly. She pretended to cough solemnly, and said with a smile: "Yes, not all. As a businessman, it is my nature to only seek profit."

She pointed to another pile, where there were only three design drafts, "This is called couture, which means advanced customization! According to the temperament and preferences of the guests, tailor-made for the occasion, and they will choose the drafts in advance until they are satisfied, one in advance Monthly appointment, if you want to jump in line, depending on the length of time, the price will be at least double."

"Wow! So beautiful!" Xiao He looked at the three design drafts, her eyes lit up, "Miss, how much money is this?"

"One piece, 100 two, the highest, no cap!"

"100 taels for one piece?" Xiao He's eyes widened, "Miss, you might as well grab it!"

"That's right, it's grabbing!" Lu Xinyan said: "100 taels is the lowest, that is to say, it's the worst. Generally, it's as little as four or 500 taels, and as many as several thousand taels!"

"It's so expensive, will anyone buy it?" Qingtong was a little worried.

"This kind of list, one thousand taels a year is enough." Lu Xinyan said: "Don't worry, you won't understand the world of the rich. I'm not worried about not having a list, I'm worried that there are too many lists and I won't be too busy Come."

If Xiaohe Qingtong was a modern person, she would definitely say: miss, where did you get the courage, did Liang Jingru give it to you?
Ye Shuang also had some disbelief, but seeing the design drawings and remembering the miracles she had brought since she met Lu Xinyan, Ye Shuang couldn't help feeling confident.

"Zhuzhu, I will listen to you on what you say to do!"

"First of all, I have thought about distinguishing the low-priced models from the high-end ones. The cheap ones still use the name of Suyifang, and the high-end ones are renamed Nishangge!"

"Okay, no problem! Anything else?"

Lu Xinyan said: "The main store of Suyifang will be redecorated to match the high-end style."

"You mean that the main store specializes in selling high-end models?" Ye Shuang hesitated now. She believed that there would be someone who knew the quality of these high-order models, but she didn't know when the person who knew the goods would show up. Can't hold it for too long.

"Aunt Ye, there is one more thing. Whether it is the decoration or all operating expenses of the main store, I will pay for it until it becomes profitable!"

"How can this be done?" Ye Shuang is not a person who likes to take advantage of others, so she quickly refused, "When Suyifang was profitable, you didn't invest in it. Now that Suyifang can't make a profit, I will pull you to buy shares. This kind of shameless thing , how can I do it?"

"Silver, if you put it there, it's just a cold object. It's only valuable if you move it flexibly! And I'm not using my own property, I'm using the bonus that Suyifang gave me before! Lu Xinyan said: "Unless Aunt Ye doesn't believe it, I can make Suyifang profitable again!"

Ye Shuang hastily explained, "How could I not believe you, I just..."

"Then it's a deal!" Lu Xinyan didn't give her another chance to refuse, "Aunt Ye, you have to worry about the decoration and the production of some small objects. Time is tight."

Ye Shuang thought in her heart that this Suyifang would also be left to Lu Xinyan in the future, so she swallowed the words she wanted to refuse, and the most important thing was to do the things in front of her first.

"What little object?"

Lu Xinyan picked up the brush and drew a few strokes on the paper, "I'll ask you to order three."

Ye Shuang didn't ask too much, "Okay."

After the two discussed the details again, Lu Xinyan said goodbye and left.

She promised Uncle Xiao that after solving today's matter, she would go back to accompany him early.

Walking out of Suyifang, Lu Xinyan met Wen Ruxiang who was pretending to be passing by as expected.

It took three days for Wen Ruxiang's proposal before, and she didn't send anyone to reply, she just waited for Wen Ruxiang to come to her on her own initiative.

Therefore, drawing design drawings day and night for the past two days, neglecting Xiao Yichen.

Lu Xinyan stared straight ahead, as if she didn't see Wen Ruxiang walking past her, and walked towards the carriage.

Seeing that Lu Xinyan was about to get into the carriage, Wen Ruxiang couldn't hold back, "Princess Zhuzhu, what a coincidence!"

Lu Xinyan stopped pretending to be curious, and looked back, her face suddenly became expressionless, "Miss Wen, I have something else to do, so I'll take my leave first."

"Princess Zhuzhu, why bother to leave in such a hurry. I just saw you and suddenly remembered that I had an agreement with you a few days ago. I wonder if the princess can remember?"

Wen Ruxiang is like this, she obviously wants to take advantage of others, but she deliberately pretends not to care and let others propose.

Lu Xinyan thought for a while, "Really? I don't remember. Usually, I can't remember things that are not important! If Miss Wen remembers something, you might as well tell it. If Miss Wen doesn't remember, then don't waste time Already! My husband is still at home waiting for me to go back and have lunch together!"

Wen Ruxiang gritted her teeth, if she said she remembered, wouldn't it mean that she remembered things that Lu Xinyan thought were unimportant, but she remembered them like treasures?But if he said he didn't remember, wouldn't the proposal three days ago be invalidated?

Although she hated Lu Xinyan, she didn't want to make things difficult for Yin Zi, and wanted to see Lu Xinyan enslaved by herself!

Wen Ruxiang gritted her teeth, "I only remember an agreement, and I can't remember the specifics! But I saw the princess coming out of Suyifang just now, so I think the princess already knows the current situation of Suyifang. Got an idea."

Lu Xinyan said casually, "Oh, what's your idea?"

"The princess used to cooperate with the Suyifang, but now the Suyifang has fallen. In addition to the princess's current reputation, no one will buy the beautiful clothes! I think we have grown up with the princess since I was a child." For the sake of big reasons, I can't bear to see the princess's talent buried!" Wen Ruxiang said: "I am willing to buy all the designs of the princess in the future, on the condition that I get [-]% of the net profit."

Lu Xinyan showed a look of sudden realization, "Ah! I remembered! Three days ago, Ms. Wen said the same thing to me! At that time, she said to give me three days to think about it. I thought it was nothing to think about, so I didn't take it to heart Come on! I didn't expect Miss Wen to remember it all the time, and bring it up again and again! Thank you Miss Wen for your love, it's a shame you didn't wait for my reply, and came here to wait for me in person!"

Wen Ruxiang's face suddenly turned green and red, knowing that she was played by Lu Xinyan.

It's not that I don't remember, I clearly pretended not to remember on purpose!

hateful!

Wen Ruxiang clenched her fists, her face was already lost, and her words were out of her mouth. She was unwilling to go back empty-handed, and forced a smile, "The princess really likes to joke, I just came out to patrol the store and passed the Suyifang! As for the third I have indeed forgotten the proposal made a few days ago, and I just remembered it! Anyway, my sincerity lies here, I wonder what the county will do?"

Lu Xinyan smiled slightly, "Miss Wen, it seems that you can't understand people's language! I have just said that there is nothing to consider about this matter, so I didn't take it to heart!"

Wen Ruxiang's complexion changed, "You refuse?"

Lu Xinyan clicked her tongue, "Well, refuse, even if you give me [-]% pure profit, I will not consider it, let alone [-]%!"

Her tone was full of disdain, and Wen Ruxiang couldn't hold back her expression, "Lu Xinyan, don't toast and refuse to eat fine wine! If you don't cooperate with me, I guarantee that all your designs will just rot in your stomach, even if you make it Ready-made clothes can only be kept in the warehouse, no one will buy your clothes!"

Xiao He crossed her hips, "Bah! Whether it's rotten in the stomach or pressed in the warehouse, it can't be cheap for a person like you!"

Lu Xinyan gently curled her lips, her brows were confident and flamboyant, her whole face became more radiant at that moment, she opened her lips lightly, "Wen Ruxiang, believe it or not, I can make your Yixiang Pavilion from this capital forever in one month." disappear!"

Wen Ruxiang sternly said: "Stop talking big, who wouldn't say it? I won't believe it!"

Lu Xinyan lightly threw down a sentence and got into the carriage.

"Just wait and see if you don't believe me!"

Wen Ruxiang stared at the leaving carriage, she didn't know whether it was fear or anger, she was trembling all over, and it took a long time to calm down.

On the carriage, Lu Xinyan regained her indifferent attitude and asked, "Qingtong, are you sure that Uncle Leng and Axue have arrived when you saw the gesture of the people in Linlang Pavilion just now?"

"determine."

Lu Xinyan's eyes flashed, "That's good, the show is officially on!"

She stood there wasting so much talk with Wen Ruxiang just now, so the people from Linlang Pavilion, who were watching from the dark, informed Yao Xue and Leng Xun to come over and create a chance encounter with Wen Ruxiang.

After Wen Ruxiang subsided, she turned around and left with a sullen face.

No matter how much she hated and hated Lu Xinyan, she couldn't deny Lu Xinyan's ability!
But so what if you have the ability, you have to have a brain!

Wen Ruxiang made up her mind, and immediately sent someone to investigate the latest movement of Suyi Fang, and must kill it in the cradle!

Just as she was about to leave, a voice that made her tremble suddenly came from her ear, "Father, the clothes in this shop are so beautiful, can I go in and have a look?"

The voice was obviously not familiar, but Wen Ruxiang's hairs stood on end, and she couldn't help looking at the source of the voice.

I saw a man and a woman not far away, walking towards this side.

The man was tall, with a dark blue bunt, wearing a bamboo hat, and his face could not be seen clearly. The beard that was faintly exposed on the chin showed that he was not young.

The woman is tall and tall, at least a head taller than ordinary women. The light green skirt complements her figure very gracefully, and she wears a white veiled cap on her head, making her appearance completely invisible.

"As long as Xue'er likes it, foster father will buy it and give it to you!"

"Thank you foster father!"

Cher?Wen Ruxiang was struck by lightning.

Seeing the father and daughter walking past her, Wen Ruxiang wanted to run, but her feet seemed to be rooted, and she stood there unable to move.

A gust of wind blew by, and the white veil on the woman's head was blown by the wind, rippling like waves, revealing a deep, beautiful and familiar face!
