Chapter 25 Pushed
  "Then why don't you report it quickly?"

"Over at Fufeng Yuan, every eighth, eighteenth, and twenty-eighth day of the lunar month, they will go out to follow the shop named by the third lady. Today is exactly twenty-seven, and she will leave the house tomorrow."

Lin Yitong finally calmed down.

Just go out, I'm afraid she won't go out.

"Come here and do something."

Yulan came over, the master and the servant discussed for a moment, then Yulan turned and walked out.

Jasper and tourmaline are at the door.

Watching Yulan walking further and further away, Bixi was very displeased: "Sister, we stand here all day long, and we are not door gods! We are the third master's personal maids, and she actually neglected us to this point, it is too much! "

Biyu shook her head and stopped her from continuing. The master had his arrangements, so they just listened.

"I'm fed up with this arrangement!" She said and ran out, ignoring Biyu calling her from behind.

Wu Ma was carried out at night. It is said that when she was carried out, she was so thin that she could no longer recognize her human form.

That night, a new person came to Jin Yutang, known as Mother Li.

When Hua Qingmu woke up early in the morning, she heard the two girls talking about Mother Li.

"Mother Wu died, and the old lady couldn't get used to other people, so she had to find the previous mother Li. Fortunately, this mother Li is easy to get along with. She smiles at everyone, like a Maitreya Buddha."

"You, it's better not to mess with Jin Yutang's people." Danzhu warned her.

"I'm just asking around so I can know how to get along with her if she comes, right?"

Turning around, she saw that Hua Qingmu had already stood up, so she asked casually:

"Madam, should we start our patrol from Dongshi today?"

Hua Qingmu nodded: "Today we will focus on investigating Jinzhiyuye."

Since the sun was getting hotter now, Hua Qingmu took Qinghui and Danzhuchen out at the beginning of the day, so that they could finish their shop inspection and come back early.

By the time I got the golden branches and jade leaves, it was already the end of the Chen hour.

"My subordinate has met the third lady."

Shopkeeper Song arrived at the door early, and when he saw Hua Qingmu and others, he quickly welcomed them inside.

Shopkeeper Song hurriedly asked the boy to prepare tea. "Madam, as per the old rules, this is the account since mid-term."

After passing it over, he seemed to hesitate to speak.

Hua Qingmu opened the account book and checked them one by one. She would pay close attention to the bills with "Xiao Mansion" written on them.

After a long time, he pointed to one of the places and asked, "Did Xiao Yuankai come to receive this sum in person?"

Shopkeeper Song was stunned for a moment when he heard that she actually called Lord Shangshu by his first name.

"Yes, this set of red and sapphire phoenixes dancing for nine days is the latest treasure in the shop. Although it is an imitation of a phoenix, it is lifelike. At that time, Mr. Xiao also specifically asked your subordinates about your preferences. I guessed that Xu was a gift. It’s for you, madam, so I remember it more clearly.”

Judging from the solemn look on Madam's face, could it be that this is not the case?
  Shopkeeper Song was sweating all over Leng Buding, fearing that something bad had happened to him.

Hua Qingmu was silent. If her guess was correct, this painting of Phoenix Dance in Nine Heavens would have already fallen into Lin Yitong's hands.

And she will present this set of Feng Wu Jiutian, which has been slightly modified by her people, to Chu Ling'er at Chu Ling'er's birthday banquet in the near future in front of everyone. Then, this set of Feng Wu Jiutian will be taken out. Said it violated the queen's taboo.

Immediately afterwards, Jin Zhi Yu Ye was seized. As the boss behind the scenes, she would be imprisoned and was condemned by Mrs. Xiao and Xiao Yuankai. In order to calm the matter, the Hua family took her out of jail and spent two full days. One million taels of silver...

A month later, Jinzhiyuye was renamed "Jinyu Mantang" and reopened. It was not until much later in her previous life that she learned that the owner behind the scenes had changed hands to Xiao Yuankai.

She accidentally went in to put a gold collar on Jintai and accidentally overheard the discussion among the people inside, and then she found out about it.

"Starting today, when anyone from the Xiao Mansion comes, they will no longer take credit, and will sell them at an extra 20%. As for the ones that have been taken away before, forget about them, except for this phoenix dancing for nine days, and the emerald peacock opening its tail. , plus 20% more to get the money back."

"Yes, ma'am." Shopkeeper Song had actually heard about Lin Yitong's affairs, and secretly blamed himself for his careless speculation and mistake, which almost ruined his master's important event.

It was already early noon after visiting other shops.

Hua Qingmu was pregnant, and the weather was hot and she was extremely tired. The two girls were also exhausted and listless.

"Let's go to Xiangming Pavilion to have a rest and eat something delicious."

When she heard that she was going to Xiangming Pavilion, Qingfu immediately said, "I want to eat crispy chicken!"

The Xiangming Pavilion is not far ahead. It is a famous restaurant and tea-drinking place in the capital and is a favorite place for the nobles in the capital.

The bottom floor is the lobby, which can accommodate fifty tables of people for dining at the same time. It is separated by green plants, making it lively and elegant.

In the middle is a big stage.

There are many pavilions in the Xiangming Pavilion, with different heights. There are music and music downstairs, and the view upstairs is excellent.

The second floor is a dining hall and elegant room, which is for the enjoyment of dignitaries or wealthy people. The location is spacious, and the number is only one-tenth of that on the first floor, but the money earned is ten times that of the bottom floor.

The third floor is the Poetry and Painting Exhibition Pavilion, which exhibits masterpieces by famous artists, or masterpieces by talented people who have spent time in the Xiangming Pavilion.

The second and third floors are widely separated, and the layout is exquisite. The noise downstairs and the smell of food are completely isolated. The person who designed this attic is quite ingenious.

Further up, on the fourth and fifth floors are tea tasting areas.

On the fourth floor, as long as the consumption reaches a certain amount, you can enter, and there is an additional charge for fragrant tea.

There are only five elegant pavilions on the fifth floor, with jade towers and green curtains, which are spacious and elegant.

If you want to book the fifth floor, you often need to advance half a month or even a month.

“Just order whatever you want~”

Hua Qingmu smiled at her satisfied look, turned her head and asked Danzhu, "What about you?"

Danzhu shook his head: "The dishes in Xiangming Pavilion are all delicious, I can't choose between them."

Danzhu held an umbrella to shade the sun, and the master and servants chatted while walking. They were more energetic than when they were patrolling the shop just now.

Speaking of happiness, Hua Qingmu couldn't help but smile.

At this moment, two beggars, aged thirteen or fourteen, came chasing and beating them.

The little beggar in front accidentally bumped into Hua Qingmu, causing Hua Qingmu to fall backwards.

"Madam, be careful!" Danzhu and Qingfu quickly came over and grabbed Hua Qingmu.

The other older beggar couldn't stop his pace, and his hands that were originally going to grab the little beggar suddenly pushed hard towards Hua Qingmu's falling body.

He was much bigger and stronger. Hua Qingmu was pushed back by the huge force, and her face turned pale with fear.

She subconsciously put her hands on her abdomen, and when she was about to fall heavily to the ground, a pair of light and strong hands gently supported her, and her figure was stabilized.

Hua Qingmu breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately!
  The little beggar saw that he bumped into someone and ran forward desperately.

Seeing that he was in trouble, the other beggar also ran for his life.

"Catch them."

A familiar voice came to Hua Qingmu's ears. It was a little cold, but also a little warm, and it was just right.

As he finished speaking, a figure flashed past.

Hua Qingmu felt like she was surviving a disaster, and gently rubbed her abdomen. Fortunately, she was fine!
  At this time, the faint orchid fragrance from the other person's body faintly spread to the tip of his nose, refreshing and refreshing.

Only then did she realize that she was being held in an extremely ambiguous position by Mo Yi. She immediately blushed and hurriedly pushed him away, staggering behind her before standing still.
