Big businessman and little fisherman

Chapter 290
Lu Yange and Gongsun Wanying went directly to Jixiang Building by car.

Shopkeeper Li hurried over when he got the news: "Didn't the Princess go to Yongyihou's Mansion for a banquet today, why come here when you have time?"

Worried that something might have happened, Shopkeeper Li came in a hurry, with sweat faintly visible on his forehead.

Lu Yange said frankly: "I have already arrived at Yongyi Hou's Mansion, but I feel uncomfortable in my heart, so I thought it would be better to come over and have something to eat."

This is not very comfortable, and it has two meanings in the ears of Shopkeeper Li and Gongsun Wanying.

Seeing that Lu Yange was fine and there were female customers, shopkeeper Li couldn't stay for a long time, so he ordered two female assistants to wait on him and went elsewhere.

Jixiang Building also employs young women as clerks. Most of the female clerks are already married and come out to earn some money to support their families by working as clerks.

These female guys are only used to entertain female guests.

Every day, halfway through Chenshi comes, the last hour ends, and Shen Shichu leaves.

Originally, no one dared to apply for the recruitment of female buddies in Jixiang Building.

However, Jixiang Building has extremely strict requirements for employees. Age, appearance, conduct, and family have rules, and not everyone will be hired.

In just a few years, it is now hard to find a position in Jixianglou.

Small families in Beijing are even envied by everyone because they have a daughter-in-law who works as a clerk in Jixiang Building.

There are six sets of clothes for four seasons a year, two taels of silver a month, and extra rewards for doing well. When you meet a generous female customer, you will also be rewarded with broken silver and copper coins.

Pieces and pieces, you can earn two to thirty taels a year.

Because some earn more money than the men at home, these female buddies have even improved their family status a lot.

In particular, some mother-in-laws originally married their daughter-in-law and expected the daughter-in-law to serve them.Now the daughter-in-law can earn money to support the whole family, and the mother-in-law will hold back unless she can't figure it out.

Today, Lu Yange and Gongsun Wanying were received by two young women in their twenties, with dignified appearance and generous demeanor.With neatly combed lady's hair, wearing the spring clothes custom-made by Jixiang Building, she looks clean and neat, and rarely comfortable.

Gongsun Wanying couldn't hold back her curiosity, she glanced at it several times.

She had heard for a long time that the female guests of Jixiang Building were received by a special female waiter, but it was the first time seeing her today, so she was naturally curious.

The dishes here have not been served yet, Taohong and Wanzhao have already arrived at Jixianglou in Xiangfu's carriage.

Hearing that Mrs. Yongyihou fell headfirst to the ground, Mrs. Zhen Guogong took the jewelry box and left, Lu Yange had such a smile on his face.

Gongsun Wanying looked at Lu Yange, then at the calm evening photo and the flustered pink face, her eyes were slightly bright.

She had to go back and let her father and grandfather discuss her marriage properly. Now was the critical time, so nothing could go wrong.

Wan Zhao went to Lu Yange's side and whispered: "Princess, sister Zhexue has followed your instructions and is waiting outside Yongyi Hou's mansion. When she sees Commander Song, she will invite him over immediately."

It was a whisper, but the voice was a little low, and Gongsun Wanying who was sitting opposite could hear it clearly.

She looked at Lu Yange in astonishment, not understanding what she was going to do?
Mrs. Yongyi Hou was already sick with anger, did the princess invite Commander Song to beat her up?

Lu Yange let out a "huh".

Wan Zhao continued: "Sister Zhexue said that if Commander Song refuses to come, she will beat him unconscious and bring him here."

Not to mention that Gongsun Wanying couldn't sit still this time, even Tao Hong, the maid beside Gongsun Wanying, couldn't control herself anymore, and she repeatedly teased Gongsun Wanying twice.

Is this something they can listen to for free?

The Princess Huaiping was so angry that Mrs. Yongyihou was overwhelmed, and she ordered her servant girl to invite Commander Song.

Could it be that this is to kill people?
When the dishes were served, Song Yunfei followed Zhexue upstairs.

Lu Yange asked Gongsun Wanying to eat first, and she went next door to talk to Song Yunfei.

After Lu Yange left, where could Gongsun Wanying eat? After Wanzhao came out, she hurriedly whispered to her girl Taohong.

While guessing what happened to the jewelry in the jewelry box, he also guessed why Princess Huaiping was looking for Commander Song.

On the contrary, Tao Hong thought more than Gongsun Wanying. What she was worried about was whether her young lady and Princess Huaiping would go in and out together, and whether she would be hated by Hou Yongyi's mansion.

When I go back, if the master knows what the young lady did today, will the young lady be grounded or scolded.

In fact, the scolding and grounding are still light. As the maidservant next to Miss Gongsun, Tao Hong is more serious than Miss Gongsun thinks.

"Miss, why don't we go first." Tao Hong was worried.

"Why do you go?" Gongsun Wanying pointed to the dishes on the table in front of her, "Prince Huaiping invited me to dinner, how could I just leave halfway, that's not enough friends."

"But, if the old lady..."

"Will not."

Gongsun Wanying lowered her voice and said, "Grandpa intended to marry me to the King of Qin. Today my mother took me to Yongyihou's Mansion to let me get closer to Princess Huaiping. I heard that the Queen likes this niece the most. If I do If you marry King Qin, then the queen will be my mother-in-law, and Princess Huaiping will be my sister-in-law. As long as I make friends with Princess Huaiping, it must be right."

Tao Hong was not as optimistic as her own lady: "However, I heard that King Qin is weak and sick, and the emperor has not established a heir to this day, just because he is afraid of King Qin..."

"Bah bah bah..."

Gongsun Wanying poohed a few times, and slapped the servant girl's arm, "Don't talk nonsense and curse the King of Qin. I met the King of Qin when the banquet was held in the palace, but he was thinner than the eldest brother and the others. A few. The world spread rumors about how King Qin's body is, and only the Queen and King Qin know."

"It is very likely that Princess Huaiping also knows that her eldest cousin is working for the King of Qin. The Shen family is not a fool. If the King of Qin is really in poor health, why would he let the eldest son of the Shen family work for the King of Qin? The Shen family's retreat."

The more Gongsun Wanying thought about it, the more she felt that she was right, "Looking back, I'll ask Princess Huaiping how King Qin's health is. If, if it's really bad, I will admit it. King Qin is such a good-looking person, you can't let him He lives alone in Qin Wangfu, I have to accompany him."

"Miss, it's wrong for you to think like this." Tao Hong said earnestly, "Besides, if you want to marry the King of Qin, the King of Qin must be willing to marry you. Even if the King of Qin is willing, the emperor and queen must agree."

"What do you mean I want to marry?" Gongsun Wanying blushed pretty, "There is nothing to hide from her mouth, I will ask my mother to find someone for you to promise to go out later."

Tao Hong hurriedly begged for mercy: "Miss, I was wrong."

When Lu Yangge came from the next door, he saw Gongsun Wanying and the maid lying on the window and stretching their necks to look out.

Lu Yange didn't understand, and followed her to look out: "Wanying, what are you looking at?"
