Chapter 48

Xin Rou secretly gritted her teeth, she didn't expect her to be so picky, and she planned to use the 100 taels of silver to buy fifty boxes of cream, and when the time came, each person would give one box away.

Now it seems that she can only pay for it herself. Xin Rou rolled her eyes and said with a smile, "The cream is two taels of silver for a box. Fourth sister, let your maid come and buy some more for me." .”

Xin Ruo picked up the teacup and sipped it lightly, Zi Lan hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Today's cream has increased in price, and I need a box of three taels of silver, because it's too expensive, and slaves don't dare to make decisions on their own." , so I didn’t buy a single box.”

Xin Ruo looked at the ups and downs of tea leaves in the teacup, and her heart was filled with joy. She is a winking person, who dares to talk to her like a lion. It is not her nature to pluck two hairs from the sheep that come to her door. Look at me. Hit you hard once.

Only then did Xin Ruo look up at Xin Rou, "How much does the fourth sister want to buy? Recently, I bought too much cream, and the price has increased. If I knew it, I would have bought more. Alas, now I can only use it sparingly." gone."

Xin Rou didn't know what to say, but when she thought of the eyes that those people wanted, Xin Rou gritted her teeth, "Buy me fifty boxes."

Xin Ruo's eyes widened in surprise, "What does Fourth Sister want to do with so much, is it possible to give it away? But fifty boxes are not enough, so don't give away some to offend some people."

Xin Rou bit her lip, she hadn't thought about this question, but how could she have so much money, she looked at Xin Ruo again, "Why don't you lend me some money?"

Xin Ruo rolled her eyes, can I borrow it from you and come back?
That is, hot buns beat dogs and never come back, Xin Ruo shook his head, "Fourth sister, don't mention the money to me, I won't touch a penny of the money, so why don't I buy one and get one free?" The box, isn't it?"

Xin Rou stroked the big white bear's fur, lowered her head and cursed inwardly, meeting such a poor ghost like Xin Ruo, it's the first time she got so much money and couldn't hide it.

Afraid that she wouldn't even lend her a single coin, so he could only go with his mother, Fu raised his head again and said, "Then you can buy me a hundred boxes first." That should be enough.

Xin Ruo stretched out her hand, "300 taels of silver, I'll let Molan Zilan go outside to buy it tomorrow, fortunately the Plum Blossom Banquet will be held in a few days, so I should be able to buy it.

Oh, Molan Zilan is my maid. She runs on the street every day. You see, the weather has been very cold recently. Today they left the house early in the morning because of you. They came back with cold hands and feet. You I have to give some travel expenses, five taels per person is enough. "

Xin Rou was taken aback, and stared at Xin Ruo, "They are originally slaves, and it is their duty to run around for the Master, and they dare to say that they have worked hard!"

Xin Ruo gently put down the teacup, looked at Xin Rou's maid Yu Xin and smiled, "She is also a maid, so it's the same if you ask her to go shopping outside, why should I help you, they still have to serve me .”

Molan Zilan helps you make the cream, you don't have to ask for overtime pay, it's my duty to help you, hehe, I don't have this obligation.

Xin Rou glanced at Yu Xin, Yu Xin immediately waved her hand and said, "I don't know where to sell cream." The weather was freezing, and she didn't want to suffer outside.

Xin Ruo raised her eyebrows and said with a smile, "Look, this maid is still incomparable with maids. Maybe your maid doesn't need half a copper coin, but mine is different. If you don't feel sorry for me, I still feel sorry for you."

Molan Zilan's eyes turned red when she heard this, and her nose was sore, so she hurriedly wiped it with a handkerchief.

With these few words from the master, I don't need any money, but the fourth girl's money is not for nothing, it is all taken from their hands anyway, and it is good to use it to reward beggars.

Xin Ruo saw that Xin Rou was unwilling, so she suddenly raised her voice and said, "Look at my bad memory, Princess Yuelin mentioned to me last time, asking me to buy some for her, the more the better, I will give it to you." I was busy and forgot.

Last time the fourth sister said that my elbows were turned outwards, this time I can hold on to you first, but you just said something straightforward, if you don’t want it, I will go back to Princess Yuelin, and I will go to Yuelin later The princess took the silver. "

After Xin Ruo finished speaking, Xin Rou slapped the table and said, "Sure, I'll send you the silver when I get back, and you are not allowed to buy it for Princess Yuelin, do you hear?"

Xin Ruo nodded, and Xin Rou took Yu Xin to the Da Furen's courtyard, thinking about how to get money all the way, Xin Ruo couldn't help laughing when they left.

Zilan couldn't help grinning, Xin Ruo looked up and poured a cup of tea for Zilan, and said with a smile, "You have such a great mouth, you asked for an extra 100 taels of silver when you opened it, and you will reward 50 taels per person later."

Zilan couldn't help but blushed, and lowered her head, it was because of the girl's good eyesight, just now she said something, she was a little worried whether she wanted a little less.

Seeing Xin Ruo complimenting her at this moment, my heart was finally relieved. Hearing Xin Ruo's words of rewarding her, he quickly waved his hands and said, "That's what slaves deserve. The girl has already asked for five taels of silver for the slaves. Where is it?" How dare you ask for silver rewards."

Mo Lan also nodded in agreement, five taels of silver has been their monthly payment for more than three months, and 50 taels has been their monthly payment for several years.

Xin Ruo said with a smile, "You have been with me for several years. When you were treated harshly by the eldest lady, your monthly income was pitifully small. If you are loyal to me, I will not treat you harshly. As long as I live well, Naturally, you are indispensable."

Molan Zilan knelt down immediately, and said with red eyes, "The servant will only follow the master for the rest of his life."

Xin Ruo helped them up, and joked, "That's not going to happen, you're going to get married in a year or two."

Molan and Zilan blushed, lowered their heads and said in shame, "The servant will never marry for the rest of his life, and will just follow the master."

Xin Ruo shook her head and said with a smile, "Then I have committed a serious crime. Okay, let's not mention this in advance. Let's go to the study to see if we have enough things."

In the study, Zi Lan took out the small box and counted it, but it was only 45, which is still quite a bit.

Xin Ruo sat on the wooden chair, this time it was really troublesome, according to the speed at which Xin Rou heard the news came to her today, she had to be exposed, and this was not a long-term solution, Xin Ruo rubbed her temples, Si Cen After a while, he couldn't help nodding and smiling.

Quickly called Molan and Zilan over to discuss her ideas, Molan and Zilan nodded secretly.

After Xin Ruo finished speaking, Zi Lan frowned, "The rented shop only opens once every half a month, isn't that too wasteful, why don't Mo Lan and I set up a small stall."

Xin Ruo couldn't help but knocked on Zilan's head, "How much money do you need for the rent? What does your stall look like? If I didn't have much money, I would have bought a shop a long time ago. Now you two are the only ones by my side who can go out." , Who will guard the shop when it opens?

Opening once every half a month is not bad, but you have to go out almost every three days, and you have to make and sell, you want to be exhausted. "

It's a pity that she can't go out, otherwise she will go by herself, and when she gets married in the future, she should be able to go out, right?Xin Ruo thought secretly.

Molan Zilan was right in thinking this way, it would be absolutely impossible for them to leave the third girl's side just to guard the shop, and it was just right to open once every half a month, so she nodded in agreement.

Only then did Xin Ruo discuss with the two of them that the shop doesn't need to be rented too much, and it only needs to be rented for three months, but it must be rented in a busy street.

The old lady mentioned to her once before that the Palace of Funing intends to welcome her in three or four months. It must be busy at that time, and no one has time to go out. After getting married, you have to think about it.

It's just that Molan and Zilan belong to a girl's family after all, so it's okay to go out to buy something, but they have to rent a shop, the two of them are not experienced in the world, what if they are cheated.

Xin Ruo was a little worried again, and cast her eyes out of the window inadvertently, wondering if there was anyone guarding outside, so I'll ask in the evening.

After making up his mind, Xin Ruo didn't think too much about it. When he left the study door, he saw Xin Rou bringing Yu Xin. After handing over the money to Xin Ruo, he repeated his instructions, "The plum blossom banquet will be here in a few days. You have to hurry up for me."

As the night fell, Zhan Moyu was reading a book in the study of Jiang Zixuan. Seeing that Lan Bing came back earlier than usual, he couldn't help but asked with a smile, "She fell asleep so early today?"

Lan Bing was taken aback, Miss Yuan San seemed to be used to going to bed late, and since then, the young master also seemed to be going to bed late, so she withdrew her thoughts, Lan Bing said blankly, "She has something to ask for help from the servant."

Zhan Moyu put down the book in his hand, looked at Lan Bing frivolously, his smile did not change, and he asked in a good mood, "Oh? What can I ask for your help?"

"She wants to rent a shop, and let the slave take her maid to rent it tomorrow," Lan Bing replied flatly.

"Open a shop?" The smile on Zhan Moyu's face deepened, even with a hint of playfulness, that girl is really interesting, she wants to open a shop even though she doesn't want the head of the Yuan Mansion.

Zhan Moyu pushed the wheelchair to move out of the desk by himself, Lan Bing hurried over to help him, and then Zhan Moyu said, "Let's go and find the concubine mother."

In the concubine's room, the prince and concubine Lu were both there. Seeing Zhan Moyu pushing the wheelchair in, the prince hurriedly stood up to help him push, and said in a gentle tone, "It's getting late and it's cold outside, why doesn't Yu'er wear more clothes?" A dress is coming?"

Zhan Moyu glanced at the prince lightly, then looked at the princess, and smiled.

On the face as white as jade, there were two dimples looming, the beauty was breathtaking, the princess just stood up, and he said, "Mother, I want a shop."

The concubine was stunned for a moment, wondering why her son, who never asked about such things, suddenly wanted a shop, so she heard the prince ask, "What does Yu'er want a shop for? If Yu'er is short of money, just tell the king."

Zhan Moyu pouted, looking ignorant of world affairs, "Yu'er is about to marry a wife, of course I have to learn to earn money to support her, I can't help my father, queen, mother and concubine to raise a wife for me."

When the princess heard this, her eyes turned red, and her son started to understand, and hurriedly asked Xinlian to bring her dowry box.

She remembered that there should be a few title deeds for the shops inside, and Concubine Lu couldn't help but snorted coldly while watching.

A half-fool also learned how to open a shop, as if money were falling from the sky, Concubine Lu sneered and shook her head, lowering her head and sipping tea.
