The wife of the power minister's family

Zhou Qi couldn't help but smile and shook his head, saying: "This Madam Xu is really an amazing woman. Jing Yi, it wasn't that she was careless before, she was testing me. If I can't let go of the hatred in my heart, I will overestimate my own abilities." If we go against Guangmingtang, I'm afraid she will give up cooperating with us immediately."

Zhou Jingyi was stunned and said in disbelief: "No way? Although Madam Xu is indeed very capable, and Mr. Wu Lang has visibly restrained himself a lot recently, we have also helped them Xinglintang a lot. This... Madam Xu is also So heartless!"

"This is not ruthlessness, this is caution. After all, business partners are different from mere friends."

Zhou Qi carefully folded the prescription that Xu Jing sent and said: "Such cautious and decisive people are the ones who do great things. I always thought in my heart before that if Mrs. Xu were a man, she would have achieved so much Her achievements must be higher than mine. But now I feel that even if she is a woman, one day I may only be able to hold her back.

Give this recipe to Manager Zhong and ask him to go down and make a thousand medicine bags for later use. "

Zhou Jingyi responded, took the prescription, paused, and said: "However, the head of the house and the Lin family have a grudge against his father, that is... the head of the family couldn't calm down for a while, and did something impulsive. I think this is human nature. A few days ago, there was news that several drugs that Guangmingtang will provide to the army have passed the review of the Shang Pharmacy Bureau and the Imperial Medical Bureau. By the spring of next year, the palace will I'm probably going to order Guangmingtang to supply medicine to the army!"

He was just a son of the Zhou family, so he couldn't see the Lin family being so proud, let alone the head of the family himself!

Zhou Qi pursed his lips tightly, and after a while he said in a deep voice: "We don't have the ability to confront the Lin family now. I won't ask about these things in the future, so you don't have to take the initiative to tell me."

On the other side, Xu Jing came to the lobby and was somewhat surprised to see that her guest was actually Zhao Shaohua.

During this time, she often went to the Zhao family and the Song family, and met with Zhao Shaohua a lot. Mrs. Zhao obviously felt that she was very compatible with her. Not only did she become more and more enthusiastic towards her, but she also often took the initiative to ask her out. She went out to play together, but Xu Jing declined because she had too many things to do.

Seeing Xu Jing, Zhao Shaohua immediately stood up excitedly and said: "A Jing, I just returned to my parents' house today. I heard from my eldest aunt that I would send you a post about my grandmother's [-]th birthday party, so I immediately took over the job. Now. My grandmother’s birthday party is in six days, should you come over if you have time?"

I don’t know when she started to call her by her name very familiarly. Xu Jing walked over and said in a funny way: "Mrs. Cen said before that she wanted to invite me to attend the old lady’s birthday banquet, so of course I stayed. Time."

Although she doesn't like this kind of occasion very much, after she remarries Xiao Yi, she will definitely attend such banquets from time to time, so it's better to get familiar with them in advance.

"It's not easy to wait until a busy person like you is free."

Zhao Shaohua gave her an angry look and suddenly smiled and said: "Do you have anything to wear for the banquet? I will go to Huacui Pavilion later to pick up the clothes I ordered earlier. If you are free, why don't you come with me?"

Xu Jing really didn't. Her usual clothes were on the plain and elegant side, so wearing them to attend Mrs. Zhao's banquet seemed disrespectful. She originally planned to ask Chunyang to buy a set directly in the next few days.

Seeing Zhao Shaohua's expectant eyes, Xu Jing was too embarrassed to continue to decline, and said with a smile: "I don't have anything to do today."

Zhao Shaohua's face immediately lit up, and he pulled her out directly.

On the carriage, Zhao Shaohua said deliberately: "My mother said yesterday that you were unwilling to attend my brother's birthday party before, but now you are willing to attend my grandmother's birthday party. It is also rare."

The mother in her words obviously refers to Mrs. Song.

Xu Jing coughed lightly and said, "I just came here at that time, and I didn't know many ladies in Xijing, so I didn't really want to attend such a banquet."

Zhao Shaohua smiled and said: "Don't worry, mother knows that you are now famous among the ladies of various families. Mrs. Su Yibo's irregular menstruation for so many years has shown signs of improvement after you saw it. Now Many ladies want to ask their mothers and aunts to come forward and ask you to treat them.

But my mother said that if you don't attend the Song family's banquet next time, she will be angry. "

Xu Jing raised her lips in a funny way and said, "Definitely not."

Zhao Shaohua is so warm to her now, and he doesn't know if he will be angry when he learns her true identity in the future.

The two talked all the way, and Huacui Pavilion arrived soon.Huacui Pavilion is an embroidery building that specializes in the business of women of wealthy families. Zhao Shaohua is obviously a regular visitor here. As soon as she entered, a woman wearing a uniform blue and yellow embroidered begonia flower and bustier skirt came over and took them away with a smile on her face. Going to the second floor, he said as he walked: "The clothes that Mrs. Zhao ordered earlier are ready. Mrs. Zhao will try them on in a while. If there is anything that needs to be changed, she can change it on the spot."

Zhao Shaohua looked at Xu Jing and said very proudly: "Jing, there are also ready-made clothes for sale here. You can see if there is anything you like. Just put it in my account."

Xu Jing couldn't help but smile and said: "Thank you, Mrs. Zhao, I can do it myself."

Although the prices of clothes here are impressive, with Xu Jing's current small treasury, buying a piece of clothing doesn't require any pain at all.

So proud!

Zhao Shaohua didn't force it, curled his lips and said: "I asked you to call me Shaohua directly. You are always so stubborn in this regard."

The woman took them all the way to a wing room on the second floor. It should be a room specially designed for distinguished guests to rest and wait. The room was very spacious and elegantly decorated. There were several couches in it, and there were several couches on each couch. There was a small table with exquisite fruit plates and snacks.

When Xu Jing and the others entered, some of the couches were already occupied by people. She glanced at them casually. When she saw a familiar figure, she couldn't help but froze, and the corner of her mouth raised a slightly cold arc.

This Xijing city is really not that big.

The woman not far away wearing a moon-white long dress with embroidered lotus patterns, who is it not Xu Ya!
Sitting next to her was a woman who looked to be fifteen or sixteen years old. It was Xu Jie, the younger sister of Xu Ya's mother.

Xu Ya obviously didn't expect to see her here, her pupils shrank suddenly, but Xu Jing just glanced at her lightly, then walked to an empty couch and sat down.

No matter where Zhao Shaohua goes, he is the focus of the circle of ladies. As soon as she sat down, several women took the initiative to talk to her.

Xu Jing was so happy that she could feel Xu Ya's eyes staring at her closely. She couldn't help but raise her eyes and smile lightly at Xu Ya.

This smile hurt Xu Ya's heart more than any bad words!
How could this woman be so calm!She was very sure that Wu Sanlang had gone to Zhou's house to beat her some time ago!
In the past, she would have gone crazy after being humiliated and plotted like this. Or did she think she and Wu Sanlang were just talking?

Wu Sanlang was also surprised. They originally said that they would start implementing their plan after the Mid-Autumn Festival. However, after the Mid-Autumn Festival, she could not contact Wu Sanlang no matter what. She even made a special trip to the place where the playboys usually go. No one else was seen anywhere.

If Wu Sanlang doesn't cooperate, no matter how much she does, it will be useless, but she knows very well that Wu Sanlang hates this woman in his heart, how could he miss this great opportunity to take revenge on her?

Could it be that something happened to Wu Sanlang, or did this woman do something to overthrow them?
At this moment, Zhao Shaohua introduced Xu Jing to several women she had been chatting with, and those women immediately started talking to Xu Jing warmly.

For a moment, the whole room seemed out of place and lonely, with only sisters Xu Ya left.

Xu Jie glanced over there with some annoyance and curled her lips secretly, "What does Mrs. Zhao mean? She just has a good background. Sister is a serious young lady of the Wang family. Why don't you see those people coming over? Are you trying to curry favor with me? Hey, that woman with the veil seems a bit familiar..."

Before she finished speaking, Xu Ya stood up and pulled her out without any explanation.

Xu Jie was stunned for a long time. After she came to her senses, she quickly said, "Sister, what's wrong with you? We haven't tried on our new clothes yet!"

Xu Ya, however, had a calm face and said nothing.

She had been paying attention to that woman, how could she not know that her name was getting more and more famous now.

Ridiculous, really ridiculous!
The most ridiculous thing is that those ladies were played around by a woman with corrupt morals who was kicked out of the house!
She can no longer wait for the unreliable Wu Sanlang, she must drive that woman out of Xijing as soon as possible! (End of chapter)
