Chapter 254

"Did the horse-faced skirt flow from you to the capital?"

"That's right," Nanny Jin replied neither humble nor overbearing.

"Then do you have that kind of shiny hair accessories?"

After hearing this, Nanny Jin understood, "You are from the capital, right?"

"Yes, there are relatives in Fucheng who live there temporarily."

"My master stopped selling that when the north was hit by a disaster a few years ago,"

"Well, it's such a pity. I wanted to buy one or two to go back."

"I'm sorry"

I saw the girl in Huafu walking to Yuehong, watching her bow her head and doing embroidery work, so she reached out to pick up the embroidery thread at her hand.

"Your family's embroidery thread is very unique, with bright colors and many types."

"This is the goods brought in by our boss."

"Oversea?"

"I guess so"

Seeing her asking questions, and not talking about shopping, Mother Jin knew that this person must have a purpose in coming to the shop.

"Can I meet your master?"

"This is not something we can decide, we need to ask for instructions."

"Then send someone to ask for instructions, I'll wait here"

The girl in Chinese clothes sat down calmly, and the girl beside her was standing behind her in an orderly manner with a fan.

Nanny Jin winked at Yuexia impatiently, she put down her work and trotted back to Jixiangyuan.

"Master, there is a very beautiful and noble girl in the shop who wants to see you."

"not see,"

Qiao Mai refused without even raising her head, Yuexia opened her mouth, closed it again, and was about to turn around.

"Ask her to come home,"

"Yes, master"

Yuexia couldn't say anything about the girl in the gorgeous dress, she must have felt very depressed, she wished that such a person would be dealt with by her master.

As soon as the girl in Huafu heard that the master saw her, she left the embroidery village and got on the carriage, and got off at the gate of Jixiangyuan.

The gate was open, and the group of them entered Jixiangyuan. Seeing such a clean and elegant house, the girl in Chinese clothes nodded in satisfaction.

The mother-in-law led them into the living room, made tea and left.

It took a quarter of an hour before Qiao Mai came to the living room in the front yard from the backyard. She didn't show any surprise when she saw the girl in the Chinese dress.

"What's the matter with this girl?"

The girl in Huafu smiled at her, "My surname is Mu, my name is Xuehua, I'm from the capital, and I'm called Jingcheng Shuanghua,"

"I haven't heard of it, so just tell me what you want from me?"

"I've heard about your name for a long time, and I want to make friends with you."

Qiao Mai frowned, "I'm very busy, I don't have time to make friends, and I don't know how to make friends with others."

The girl in Huafu looked at her, "Your skin is really good, do you also use overseas skin care products?"

Qiao Mai looked at her steadfastly and didn't speak until the girl in the Chinese dress was almost exhausted.

"Miss Mu, please get down to business."

"I want to live in your house and make friends with you,"

Qiao Mai stood up, "Come here, throw these lunatics out!"

At this moment, the mother-in-law who was following the girl in Huafu shouted loudly, "Bold, this is Princess Minghua, how dare you throw my princess out."

Qiao Mai looked at the mother-in-law indifferently, as if looking at a dead person.

"I dare to throw a princess, let alone a princess, throw it"

Several women rushed in and were about to make a move. At this moment, the one driving the carriage outside the door flew into the yard from the carriage, and rushed into the house quickly, protecting several people.

Only then did Qiao Mai's eyes become brighter, "Your coachman is good, and his martial arts are so high."

The girl in Chinese clothes grinned bitterly at her, "Sister Qiao, I really don't mean anything else,"

"To make friends, you have to be willing. I don't want to make friends with you. You can go back. However, he dared to fly in from the gate of my house. He must be punished lightly."

I saw her slapping her lightly with a palm, and the coachman, who was confident in his martial arts, had no strength to parry.

Being slapped on the left chest by Qiao Mai, he flew upside down and fell to the ground. After struggling to get up, he spat out a mouthful of blood.

"you?"

"Next time if you don't go through the main entrance, I will kill you!"

The girl in Huafu wanted to cry, but she really wanted to make friends with Mrs. Qiao. It seemed that the method she used was wrong. When she was planning to retreat, the old lady rushed over with her people.

Seeing Miss Mu, she immediately cried out in surprise.

"But Princess Minghua, the Duke of Zhen Guo?"

As if she saw the savior, she immediately rushed towards the old lady.

"Madam Pang is you, I am Minghua, Minghua sees the old lady"

"Too much courtesy, how is your grandmother?"

"Thanks to you old man, everything is fine"

Qiao Mai rolled his eyes and flicked his sleeves, "Grandmother, I have something to do in the backyard, she knows you, so you can greet her, if you want to live in my house, it's impossible, hmph"

She left, leaving behind an embarrassed old lady. It seemed that her appearance made the girl difficult.

"Why did you come here?"

"I've heard about Mrs. Qiao's name, the name of Jixiang Embroidery Village, and the name of Qiao's Snack Shop, so I ran over to have a look."

"I'm asking how you came here from the capital?"

"In the previous war, it was my father who was in command. He has been in Beiguan. If we don't win this battle, I will come to pick him up."

When the old lady heard this, she said happily, "It turns out that your father led the troops in this battle."

"Of course, otherwise, who would dare to come here? Everyone is greedy for life and afraid of death."

"Well, is your father okay?"

"I got some injuries, but I'm fine. I'll return to Beijing after a few days of recovery."

"Are you really here to make friends with Mrs. Qiao?"

"Yes, but she doesn't want to"

"Don't force it, everything is a fate."

"I know Mrs. Pang, I didn't expect to meet you here"

“What a nice boy”

The old lady liked Minghua very much. Although she was a rich lady, she didn't put on airs at all. It was a pity. If she had met her first, the two of them wouldn't have had such an unpleasant quarrel.

"Since sister Qiao doesn't welcome me, then I'll leave"

"Shall I ask you to bring her home's specialties back for you?"

"OK"

The old lady made arrangements in person, prepared a carload of good things for her, and asked her to take them away.

She was a little puzzled and went to the backyard, "Girl, did you refuse to make friends because of Jiaru?"

Qiao Mai shook his head, "Grandma, what are you thinking? A stranger who has never met suddenly said to you, I want to live in your house, I want to make friends with you, and I will do it? Do I look so stupid?"

When the old lady heard this, Pu Chi laughed out loud.

"Princess Minghua is a good boy. He is in a high position and has no pretensions. He is very simple."

"Ru Er was the same back then,"

"She is different, she is spoiled by us, but Minghua is not"

"Whatever you say, I don't want to make friends anymore. I can't keep up with all the things at home and the things Yuan Jiaqi asked me to do. How can I have time to take care of her?"

"The workshop in She County is under construction?"

"Yes, once the workshop opens, I'll visit it from time to time and select a few reliable people to manage it."

"Well, I see, then you should be busy. If that girl comes again, don't chase her away like this."

"Then she doesn't want Fan to be stupid. If she is smart enough to make friends with my daughter, I have no objection."

"Haha, you!"

This episode ended like this. Mother Jin found Qiao Mai when she had nothing to do at night.

"A lot of people ask if our embroidery work is for sale?"

"It's not for sale, it's only for those who receive the work. Anyone who dares to secretly change the embroidery thread will not be given work."

"why?"

"During the Ming Dynasty, tea was monopolized, salt was monopolized, cloth was monopolized, and thread was also a big merchant. Once our thread was bought or sold, it was tantamount to touching other people's flesh. Although my mother is not afraid of them, she is afraid of trouble. Money can never be earned, and it is only reasonable to live quietly."

"Understood, I was thinking too little."

"That shop is for Ling'er to practice, you just have to play, although we don't cause trouble, but we are not afraid of trouble!"

"Yes, ma'am"
