Delicate Flower Chapter 124: Hit someone
Yu Yuan placed Yu Tang and Xiangshi at the inn, and took Xia Pinggui to Ping'an Wine Shop to inquire about the news. Yu Tang was not idle either. She sent Sanmu out: "Go and inquire about the Jiang family. The more detailed the better." She also gave him dozens of copper coins and said, "Don't worry about the money, just buy it for others." Melon seeds, sugar snap peas, etc."
Miki heard A Tiao brag in private that he was never empty-handed when doing things for the eldest lady. He was very envious at the time. Of course, he was not envious of A Tiao for being rewarded, but he was envious of A Tiao being able to gain the trust of his boss. Now that he also had the opportunity, he was naturally overjoyed. He happily agreed, carefully put the copper coins into his purse and ran away.
Xiang looked at it and said with a smile: "After all, I am still a little young, and I am not steady enough in my work. I need to practice for a few years."
Yu Tang smiled and flattered his sister-in-law: "With my sister-in-law here, are you still worried that he won't be able to learn his skills?"
"How can I be as good as you say?" Xiang's face turned red.
The aunt and sister-in-law joked a little with each other.
Xiang suggested going out for a walk: "Don't go far, just look around."
The inn they stayed in was also on Canal Street, which was very lively and prosperous.
Of course Yu Tang wants to accompany him.
The two went to Huanchai, changed into coarse cloth clothes, wrapped their heads, and left the inn with Shuangtao and Xia Lian.
Next door was a silk and satin seller. The two of them went in and went shopping for a long time. They bought two pieces of white silk, two pieces of white silk, and four pieces of Hangzhou silk with folded branches and flowers, and asked the waiter to deliver it to the inn to make autumn clothes. Finally, when they left the silk shop, they saw a shop selling rouge and gouache diagonally opposite. Xiang became excited and took Yu Tang to buy hair oil and face ointment, and planned to bring some back to Wang and Chen.
In his previous life, Yu Tang was a poor man, so he always dressed plainly and elegantly. Now, at the same age as Hua, clothes are easy to dress, but she really doesn't know how to put on makeup. At most, she can only apply lipstick and it is considered grand. But what woman doesn’t like to dress up? Yu Tang kept her face plain, just because she was afraid that she could not draw well and be laughed at, "Ugly people tend to be weird." At this time, I heard Xiangshi say this, and then looked at Xiangshi's clean and tidy makeup, and her energetic face. He couldn't help but whisper to Xiangshi: "Sister-in-law, can you teach me how to put on makeup? I, I don't know how to do this."
Hearing this, Xiangshi looked at Yu Tang in surprise, pursed her lips and smiled, pinched her face, and said: "If you still put on makeup like this, you are not going to let us people live. You, Just don’t mess around, just apply lipstick like you are doing now. If you put on makeup, why not not put it on?"
When two people were talking, they would inevitably ignore the people and things around them, so Xiangshi suddenly bumped into someone. The other party yelled "Ouch", and Xiangshi and Yutang apologized repeatedly before they could see the person clearly. When they raised their heads, they realized that the person Xiangshi bumped into was a seventeen or eighteen-year-old woman, wearing a brand-new dress. She has old golden hair all over the place, apricot eyes and peach cheeks, she is very beautiful, but her eyes are rolling around, holding a box of rouge in her hand, standing there seductively, with a bit of frivolity in her beauty, not unlike A woman raised in a boudoir.
Yu Tang was dumbfounded.
Gao's!
She actually met Gao here.
This is really... a bad fate!
But why is she here?
Most people go to Hangzhou City just for shopping.
Yu Tang thought about it, and Xiangshi said hurriedly: "Miss, I'm sorry. Where did I bump into you? Is it okay?" Then he raised his head and looked around for a moment, then told Xia Lian, "Hurry up and ask. , see if there is a medical center nearby, let’s take this lady to the medical center and have a look!”
Before Xia Lian could accept her promise, a man came over, supported Mrs. Gao, and asked eagerly: "What happened?"
Mr. Gao's big, watery eyes looked pitifully at the tall, handsome man in front of her and choked with sobs: "Brother, I was hit, it hurts so much!"
Brother? !
Yu Tang carefully looked at the man whom Gao called brother, but she couldn't remember when she had seen this man.
When the man heard this, he immediately blocked Mr. Gao behind him and said displeasedly: "What do you want?"
My sister was hit. Shouldn't I first ask where it was hit and how it was? Why do you look like you're about to quarrel?
Yu Tang and Xiangshi were both a little confused. Gaoshi looked at it and immediately pulled the man's sleeve and whispered: "I'm fine, it's fine. Let's go back early! Don't wait for the shopkeeper to find you. ."
Hearing this, the man's momentum suddenly disappeared. He turned around and said to Gao in a warm voice: "Okay, let's go back first." After saying that, he glared at Yu Tang and Xiangshi fiercely, hugged Gao and walked away. .
Xia Lian was so angry that she stamped her feet and said, "Who is that! I can see clearly that she bumped into the eldest mistress and the young lady while walking without looking. She even hit them upside down, as if we had hit her. The eldest mistress and young lady are also very kind-hearted..."
"Okay!" Mr. Xiang stopped her and said, "As long as it's okay. Traveling on a boat or horseback is dangerous. We should be modest and cautious outside, and don't cause trouble if we can. Since everyone is fine, just treat it as such. It's a misunderstanding, don't talk about it anymore."
Xia Lian did not dare to say anything more, and Xiangshi pulled Yu Tang into the rouge shop.
But Yu Tang kept thinking about that man and the rouge in Gao's hand.
In his previous life, Mr. Gao seemed to have been using this kind of rouge.
Yu Tang looked carefully at the items sold in the shop and saw the rouge in Gao's hand. She asked the clerk in the store: "How to sell this rouge?"
The waiter smiled and said: "This is the signboard in our shop, called March Peach Blossom. When you apply this rouge, your face will look like a peach blossom..."
Yu Tang interrupted the waiter and said, "How much money is there in a box?"
The clerk didn’t dare to sell any more and immediately said: “Five liang per box.”
Yu Tang took a breath of air-conditioning.
But the waiter smiled and said: "Don't think it's expensive, it's valuable for its own sake..."
Yu Tang’s thoughts couldn’t help but drift to his past life.
The Gao family has a dowry, but her dowry is not much. Yu Yuan did not make much money in the early years. At least from her perspective, it is impossible for the Gao family to be able to use this kind of rouge all year round. .
Yu Tang was in a mess, so she cheered up, bought some things with Xiangshi and returned to the inn.
Yu Yuan had someone bring a letter, saying that he would not be back for dinner that night. Miki, who had gone to Jiang's house to inquire about the news, hurried back to the inn when it was time to light the lamp.
Yutang and Xiangshi had already had dinner, and they met Sanmu in Yuyuan's guest room.
He drank half a cup of tea while panting, and then talked excitedly about the Jiang family to the two of them: "I have found out everything. They live in Xiaosuhang Lane, not far from here. The Jiang family is now The head of the family was named Jiang Chao, who was only twenty-two or three years old. When he was sixteen years old, his father passed away. He sold his father's boat and followed his uncle to run boats. Within two years, he returned to business. He bought a big ship and started working alone. It was bigger than the ship his father left him. Just two months ago, he suddenly said that he would build a ship to go to Sulu, and he also asked people to raise shares. Everyone thought he was whimsical and wanted to invest in shares. There are not many people watching, but there are many people watching the joke."
Yu Tang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said, "I asked you to inquire about the Jiang family. What did you say about his investment?"
Miki digressed, rubbed his head and smiled, saying: "I have also found out about their family. Jiang Chao is neither married nor engaged. He only has one sister, whom he has been with since childhood. The Yu family next door got engaged and got married last year. He now lives with his widowed mother in a three-bedroom house, and is served by seven or eight servants..."
Jiang Ling, are you married yet?
Yu Tang was stunned and said, "Then have you ever heard anyone talk about Aunt Jiang's family?"
Miki nodded repeatedly and said: "I've heard of it. It's said that their aunt was unlucky and she married her to celebrate the occasion. Who knew that my uncle's illness was getting worse and worse? Her mother-in-law sometimes told the neighbors When they got up, they all said they regretted letting Aunt Jiang go to celebrate the wedding."
Forget about Yu Tang, even Xiangshi frowned after hearing this.
Yu Tang sighed in his heart.
She said: "Then can you find out where the Jiang family's aunt goes on weekdays?"
Miki said: "I have inquired clearly. It is said that the old lady of the Jiang family is not in good health these days. Aunt Jiang's mother-in-law goes back to her parents' home every morning and evening. The rest of the time, she spends her time at home serving my husband."
Yu Tang felt that Sanmu was quite good at doing things, so she praised him a few times, rewarded him with more than a dozen copper coins, and asked Shuangtao to bring him a plate of braised pork, a plate of sweet and sour fish, and a plate of clean rice. Stir-fried amaranth and cooked him dinner.
Miki was happy, thanked him again and again, and retreated to eat.
Xiang asked Yu Tang worriedly: "What are you going to do?"
Yu Tang said with a smile: "If brother comes back and says that the Jiang family's business can be done, I am going to find the Jiang family's aunt. After all, we are female relatives, and we can't go directly to Jiang Chao!"
Xiangshi said worriedly: "Auntie Jiang doesn't go out, how can you see her?"
Yu Tang laughed loudly~IndoMTL.com~ and said: "We are doing business seriously. If you want to see Jiang Ling, just go and ask for it. Why can't you see her? Even if she doesn't want to see me, I It just takes a few more requests, so it must not be difficult, right?"
Xiang wanted to say that things are not as simple and easy as you imagined, but when the words came to his lips and he thought about Yu Tang's words carefully, there was really a little bit of truth to them.
She had to wait patiently for Yu Yuan to come back.
After Yu Yuan came back, he laughed and said to Xiang: "My sister, if she can use five points of strength, she will never use ten points. Don't tell me, I think her lazy method is quite good. "After saying that, he held Xiangshi's face and kissed her. The kiss made Xiangshi bump into each other, but her face turned red like blood.
"Don't be like this, is there anyone else here?" After complaining in a low voice, she asked Yu Yuan, "Are you going to call A-mei over now?"
"Call over here!" Yu Yuan smiled, "We have things to do tomorrow."
Xiangshi went to invite Yu Tang in person.
The three people sat down at the round table. Yu Yuan personally poured tea for them, and then told Yu Tang what he had seen today.
