Flowers are expensive

Chapter 389 Buying the Informant 1
"Wait, wait," You Xian'er said with a smile from ear to ear, "You ask so many questions at once, where do I start to answer? No hurry, anyway, you will live in the palace from now on until you get married It’s enough to go back to your Prince Qi’s mansion when it’s time. The days are still long, and you will have time to learn one by one slowly.”

"Yes, Mingzhu," Qixiang said with a smile beside him, "don't go back to Prince Qi's mansion in the future, you have to marry anyway, stay here while you can't get married, and get along with me The nurse learns how to be a good wife and mother."

Ming Zhu blushed with a smile, but she also became shy, leaned close to You Xian'er and said, "Nurse, you really have to teach me, I don't know anything!"

"Don't worry," You Xian'er put her arms around her shoulders and smiled, "You are also my darling, why don't I teach you well? The days are long, and the nurse will teach you slowly in the future! By the way, this I have to personally write a letter to Princess Qi to tell Princess Qi, at least I have done one of the things she entrusted to me! Donger, Dong..."

As soon as she yelled two words, You Xian'er came to her senses again, patted her forehead and frowned, "What kind of memory do I have? Isn't Dong'er still at Xuan Zhen's place? It's really getting old, and my memory has also deteriorated! Suying, bring a pen and paper!"

Qixiang who was at the side asked, "Is my aunt well? Dong'er is still waiting there?"

"That's a heart disease, how can you just say it's okay?"

Qixiang raised his legs and said with a smile: "My brother can really bear it, so I don't want a big girl!"

"Do you dare to want it?" Mingzhu asked Qixiang with a wink and a smile.

"Satisfied, little girl?" Qixiang picked up a candied fruit and threw it to Mingzhu, "If your brother didn't make the match inside, where would you have this marriage?"

Mingzhu made a grimace and said, "What kind of hero are you pretending to be? It's all because brother Yuanyin loves me!"

You Xian'er patted her little face and smiled: "Now you know that Brother Yuan Yin is your cousin? Who will he help if he doesn't help you? You still treat Miss Liang like that, it makes him feel bad!"

"I'm just not convinced that Liang Xixi said Brother Zhaoxun won't marry me!" Ming Zhu stood up as she spoke, and said with a ghostly smile, "I'll go find Liang Xixi!"

"Damn girl," You Xian'er hastily pulled her back and asked, "What are you looking for her for?"

Mingzhu shook her head and said: "I want to tell her personally that Brother Zhaoxun and I are engaged, and I will marry Brother Zhaoxun in two years! I want to tell her personally, see if she is convinced or not! Don't worry, baby Mother, I won't beat her up, look at Brother Yuanyin's face!"

"Pearl..."

Mingzhu didn't wait for You Xian'er to finish nagging, and quickly ran out of the courtyard.When she came to Nanxian Bridge, she found that the door of the tea house was closed.She stood at the door with her hips on her hips and took a few glances, then walked around to the backyard door and knocked a few times, only to find that there was no one in the house.In desperation, she had no choice but to walk out of the back alley, planning to return to the palace.

When she just walked out of the alley, two figures suddenly flashed by the corner of her eyes.Looking up, it turned out to be Banna Jingtai and Ah Jinyu.Looking at the direction in which the two were going, she suddenly remembered that Banna Jingtai told the nanny last night that she planned to go to the temple to pray for her family today.

She shrugged her shoulders, pursed her lips, and when she was about to leave, she found someone following behind the master and servant of Banna's mirror stage.She was so surprised, she stood and looked at it from a distance, thinking who would be so bold as to follow the concubine of Prince You's Mansion?Ever since, she quietly followed while snickering.

Half an hour later, the door panels of the teahouse were dismantled piece by piece.As soon as the door was opened, the proprietress of the rice shop next to her came over and asked Mother Yin, "What's the matter? You opened the door! I heard the commotion in your backyard in the morning. What's the matter?"

Yin's mother shook her head while setting the tea set: "Nothing serious happened. The people who stuffed Misty Rain came to arrest Ni'er in the morning. There was a lot of commotion, and I wanted to report it to the government!"

"What about her? Was she taken back? What did she do? She's going to be taken back, maybe how to deal with it!"

Mother Yin sighed: "Isn't it? Fortunately, our Xixi arrived in time, otherwise, we would have to die!"

The proprietress was also idle and had nothing to do, so she hurriedly took Yin's mother to sit down and asked with "concern": "What's going on? Have people died?"

Mother Yin said: "What else could it be? Isn't it the young master Huo who runs the restaurant? He beat Ni'er to the point where he was covered in bruises, and there is no good place for him. He really is not a human being!"

"Yo yo yo," the proprietress flicked her tongue a few times and asked, "Can you live if you catch it back?"

"It's dangerous enough to say!" Yin's mother knocked her teacup on the table heavily and said angrily, "When Xixi and I rushed to plug the misty rain, the mother in charge was asking someone to slap Ni'er. A good face, like flowers and jade, white and tender, vividly drawn into a portrait of Guan Gong! Do you say that committing crimes is not committing crimes? The mother in charge of the courtyard also survived when she beat the girl, and her heart was so cruel Like a stepmother!"

"Oh, how miserable!"

"Isn't it miserable? The young master Huo was sitting next to him, and he said he wanted to redeem Nier's body and take him home. The mother in charge didn't even bat an eyelid, and directly developed it for 500 taels! It seemed like she wanted Nier to disappear as soon as possible." ""500 taels?" The proprietress asked in surprise, stretching out five fingers, "Is that Lan Nier who usually comes to see you with your Yin'er? The one who is good at playing the pipa in Misty Rain that?"

"It's her!"

"It's only worth 500 taels!" The proprietress said with a look of pity, "If it's really that price, I want to buy it, and I can earn half and half if I change hands! Does the mother in charge know how to do business? So You are willing to lose money in the business, are you out of your mind?"

"Don't tell me, when my family's silver was redeemed, the original mother Zhang asked for 3000 taels, but when I went to redeem it, the mother in charge only asked for 1000 taels. At that time, I still felt that this person It's kind-hearted, to be willing to suffer such a big loss, who knew it was such a thing!"

"Really?" Xixi put on her apron and came over and asked.

"It's true," Yin's mother nodded and said, "I thought I heard it wrong, so I asked again, and I saved 2000 taels in the end!"

"Hey, hey," the proprietress hurriedly inquired again, "So Lanier really ransomed for Young Master Huo?"

"Bah!" Mother Yin spat on the ground and scolded, "What's the redemption for his little tadpole body? He deserves it too? Let me tell you, I'll talk to those matchmakers in the city later, face to face." Looking at the appearance of the young owner of a school restaurant from above, behind his back is a...is a...then what, Xixi, what did you scold him just now?"

"Pervert!" Xixi replied with a smile.

"That's right, that's right! Pervert!" Mother Yin gritted her teeth, "Which good girl in this city is going to fall into his hands, and she will be appointed to death! How can I let Nier follow him with that kind of person? Fortunately, Xixi took the pie from the palace and posted it, otherwise it would be quite mysterious!"

"What pie?"

"Oh, don't you want to hold a Mid-Autumn Festival dinner on the fifteenth day of the palace? I asked some girls to join in the fun. There was no Ni'er, but our Xixi family is amazing," Yin's mother looked at Xixi with a smile and said, "She has a friend who works in the palace, and she begged her friend to add a pie for Nier. Now, does the mother in charge dare to touch Nier's finger? The other girls are handed over by the mother in charge. Only Nier is the one who is called for by the palace, you haven’t seen it! The mother in charge of the courtyard is holding that pie, ouch, her face has turned pale several times!"

"Didn't you take the opportunity to speak ill of her?" The proprietress said angrily.

"Why not? I asked her at the time, hey, mother in charge of the courtyard, do you know how to read? I haven't given an answer after a long time! I heard that you are good at poetry and prose, but you still can't recognize that How many words? Are you kidding me!"

"Hahaha..." The two women laughed together, feeling very embarrassed.The proprietress asked again: "And then?"

"Then she asked whether our family's Xixi pie stickers were real or not, and Xixi said, if she didn't believe it, just beat Nier to death, and her mother in charge could still do it when she saw it. Don't go down! The dead woman's face turned black immediately, and she couldn't get angry, so she could only hold back and let us bring Ni'er back!" Mother Yin became more and more excited as she spoke, and even patted the table a few times.

"Is Nier in your backyard now?"

"If you don't bring them back, are you counting on those people? Xixi is right, you can find an excuse when you turn around, say something about diarrhea, accidentally fell down the stairs, something urgent in my hometown, it's okay to trick Nier secretly. I know! So, we brought her back, and we will talk about it when we go to the palace!" Mother Yin turned around and smiled at Xixi as she spoke, "Xixi, I really need to rest your friend when I turn around. Do it in the backyard I can't afford to sell the mooncakes, what do you think about buying him?"

Xixi laughed in her heart and said, "Where do you get any friends?"In the morning, she asked Mrs. You for a pie, and wrote it herself.Just when he was about to answer, an old woman walked in outside the door, the same one who asked Yin's mother for cloth last time.

The old woman entered the door and looked around for a few times, then walked to Mama Yin and asked with a smile, "Busy, Mama Yin."

"Yo, it's you!" Mother Yin got up and smiled, "Please sit down!"

"I won't sit down anymore, I just came to tell you something."

Seeing this, the proprietress of the rice shop walked away knowingly.Xixi hurriedly ordered a cup of tea, brought it to the old woman, and stood behind Yin's mother to listen.Yin's mother asked her: "What's the matter? Tell me!"

The old woman took a sip of her tea and said with a smile: "I came here before, and seeing the gate was closed, I thought you didn't do this business anymore!"

"I did some other business before, and now I just opened the door! What's the matter with you, old man? Is it the Mid-Autumn Festival event that I mentioned last time?"

The old woman glanced at Xixi, as if she was a little apprehensive.Yin's mother hurriedly smiled and said: "You can just say it. Didn't I tell you last time that I want to add another person? It's her! She's my helper here, don't worry!"

The old woman was relieved, and said to the two of them in a low voice: "Since you are willing to go, I will report your names. After the partnership is broken up, you will go to the alley behind the Ci'an Office to lead Go for the money, one person, three liang, do you understand?" She looked mysterious, as if she was talking about something extremely important.

"Understood," Yin's mother said with a smile, "I'm the best at doing things with money. But, what do I have to ask?"

"Don't worry, just wait at home when the time comes, I will come to call you. By the way, is this girl called Xixi? When I came back last time, I got angry with Jin Ling'er's little rascal. I didn't quite hear what you called her!"

"Yes, her name is Xixi." Mother Yin nodded.

"Okay, I'm sorry to trouble you, Mama Yin, you can write, help me write the names of both of you on a piece of paper, so I can go back to work."

"It's easy to say!" Mother Yin instructed Xixi, "You just write it by hand, and leave it to this old mother."

Xixi walked back to the counter, took a piece of paper and wrote their names on it, then handed it to the old woman and said with a smile: "If there is such a good thing in the future, don't forget to call us, and we will pay for the six taels of silver." I can’t get it all, I’ll score you two taels as a thank you!”
