Abandoned Women: The First Secret Service Concubine

Chapter 50 Interesting

Feng Yao said: "This road is good. However, since the appearance of Wuyoulou, your business has been greatly reduced. Am I right?"

Nangong nodded ruthlessly, his cold eyes fixed on Feng Yao's face: "Go on."

Feng Yao smiled faintly: "Because Wuyou Building has both civilian areas and noble areas, when guests from any family background come, there is a place where they can enjoy themselves. And Zhiwei Building, the daunting environment for ordinary people, is expensive. The prices of the meals are not reduced, so only people from wealthy families come here to eat. In fact, at present, only a small number of old customers come here once in a while, most of the old customers go to Wuyoulou, right?"

Feng Yao is not afraid of offending people, so if she wants to say something, she can say it happily: "The rich are willing to spend money, but the proportion of the rich in Huangsha Town, have you ever thought about how much they can account for?"

"Then what do you think?" Shopkeeper Su couldn't help asking when he heard this.

Feng Yao smiled and said: "This is your Zhiwei Building's business thinking. I only point out the stubborn stones on the road of development for you. It is not me who can tell you how to improve the situation and the future business route. It's gone."

Nangong lowered his eyes ruthlessly, thoughtful.

Shopkeeper Su's gaze also became strange. Which character from a hidden world is this, and his words and deeds are so insightful?No wonder Su Xingyan kept talking for her, but looking at her every move, it was extraordinary.

"Miss Feng, you are really amazing!" Su Xingyan gestured with a thumbs up and said in admiration.

Feng Yao smiled slightly, but covered her mouth with her palm, and said quietly: "It's just fooling around."

Su Xingyan's eyes widened in shock, and then he laughed, and covered his mouth like her: "Good trick!"

"Give this girl 100 taels of silver." Nangong returned to his senses ruthlessly, looked at Shopkeeper Su and said.

Shopkeeper Su was stunned for a moment, but did not object.In his heart, Feng Yao's words just now, if he really saved the decline of Zhiweilou, only 100 taels of silver would be a loss to others.

"Madam Feng, do you want a silver ticket or a silver ingot?" Shopkeeper Su asked.

Feng Yao calculated in her mind and said, "Give me 70 taels of silver, 30 taels of silver, thank you."

After getting the silver taels, Feng Yao said to the chef invited by shopkeeper Su: "Before cooking this fried snail, first soak it in clean water for three or four days, and then..." In the process of frying the snail, the points that need to be paid attention to are described in detail. Fan finally said: "The most important thing to pay attention to is the soaking water before frying. If the water is still cloudy after three or four days, you can soak it for one or two more days as appropriate."

After the delivery was over, he didn't stay any longer, left the private room and went downstairs, put on a small pannier and walked out.

In the hall on the first floor, shopkeeper Su grabbed Su Xingyan: "What are you doing?"

"I'm going to talk to Miss Feng." After Su Xingyan finished speaking, he raised his foot and ran outside.

Shopkeeper Su grabbed him hard, and knocked him on the head: "You are really confused, what kind of girl Feng, that is clearly Mrs. Feng! Didn't you see that Mrs. Feng has a bun on her head, and she is married. It's gone!"

Who knows that Su Xingyan said indifferently: "She is so beautiful, if she doesn't tie up her hair, I don't know how many people will block her way to pay attention."

Su Xingyan himself wore makeup, so he thought from the bottom of his heart that Feng Yao must have put her hair up on purpose to prevent people from disturbing her.After finishing speaking, he shook off shopkeeper Su's hand and rushed out the door: "Miss Feng, wait for me!"

Shopkeeper Su was left with a face full of astonishment, and scolded: "Stinky boy!"

Feng Yao was thinking about what she was going to buy today, so she turned around and walked towards the cloth art street.But when she heard Miss Feng's voice coming from behind, she couldn't help but look back: "Why are you following me?"

Su Xingyan, who was dressed as a boy, with a white sweat towel around his waist, ran over with big strides as if he didn't notice, with a bright smile on his face: "I'm free and I have nothing to do, come and look for me." Talk to me. Where are you going?"

What does it mean to be idle?As a boy, every day is very busy, right?However, Feng Yao thought about his identity, couldn't help laughing, and said: "I plan to buy some things before going back."

"That's just right, there is no place I'm not familiar with in Huangsha Town, what are you going to buy?" Su Xingyan heard that she would not go back for a while, and felt a little happy in his heart, with a brighter smile on his face.

Feng Yao looked into his dark brown eyes, and saw that there was a smile in them. She couldn't help but feel brighter in her heart, and said without being polite to him, "I'm going to buy some fabrics for my cousin as a dowry. Some earrings for my little niece to play with. Buy some condiments for cooking, dishes and cups for serving rice, pork eggs..."

Hearing the back, the corners of Su Xingyan's mouth, which was originally raised, gradually became round: "I bought so much, can you take it back?"

"I came here in a bullock cart, so I just put it on the cart." Feng Yao said.

"Oxcart?" Su Xingyan's face was slightly puzzled, his eyes rolled, but he took the opportunity to ask: "Miss Feng, where is your family?"

"My family is in Moshui Village, not far from the town." Feng Yao was a little amused, he asked where her family lived, maybe she wanted to visit?
I saw Su Xingyan nodded: "I know there, I used to go to play when I was young. Once I took Nangong Wuqing to swim, and his clothes were stolen, and I almost went back with bare buttocks, ahahaha!"

Feng Yao asked in surprise, "Nangong is ruthless?"

"It's that young master just now." Su Xingyan curled his lips, "Don't look at him as cool now, but ugly when he was a child. At that time, he was wearing my pants, but when he returned to his home, he became a That's it."

Feng Yao nodded, without commenting.Everyone has their own past, Nangong Wuqing was born in such a family, there are more stories to come.

"Don't call me Miss Feng anymore, I'm already married." Although Su Xingyan may not have any thoughts about her, it's always better to say something first.

Su Xingyan didn't take it seriously: "Why are you married or not? We're good friends, it's so vulgar to say that!" He spoke righteously, very solemnly: "Well, I'm older than you, so I'll call you sister. As for you, just call me Brother Xingyan."

Subconsciously, Su Xingyan still thinks that Feng Yao is not married, saying that is just self-protection.

Feng Yao curled her lips secretly, she lived 27 or [-] years in her previous life, how many years older than him, calling him brother?Thinking well, he said, "I'll call you Brother Su." It was polite but not alienated.

"Okay." Su Xingyan said, he didn't know exactly what he was dissatisfied with.However, he has a free and easy temperament, so he quickly walked away and said, "What should we buy first?"

"Let's go to Cloth Art Street first." Feng Yao said.

Cloth art street, people come and go.Fengyao is in front, Su Xingyan is behind, all the way to the cloth shop where Fengyao bought silk and cotton cloth last time.

Inside the store, the young boy was pointing at the cloth on the shelf with high spirits, spitting and making gestures with both hands: "Look at this piece of satin, it's not soft and silky anymore, take it back and cut it into clothes..."

Feng Yao was not in a hurry, she waited outside the counter, her eyes fell on a flower flower next to her.I saw that the texture is tight, smooth and soft, and it feels cool and refreshing just by looking at it.If it is made into a close-fitting jacket, it must be extremely comfortable.Feng Yao was about to point at this flower and ask the boy to cut her two feet, but she heard a scream: "Ah! It's you! Don't go!"

I saw the little guy pushing away everyone, walking towards Fengyao, stretching out his arm to grab her: "You finally appeared!"

Su Xingyan, who was standing next to Feng Yao, frowned, and stretched out his hand to separate the boy's hand: "I have something to say, what are you doing with your hands and feet?"

At this time, other people in the shop also looked at Feng Yao.

Feng Yao didn't know the reason, she just said: "I don't know how to run, you don't have to be so excited. Why are you looking for me? What's the matter?"

"What's the matter?" The boy's eyes were blazing, and he wanted to eat Feng Yao, "You, you liar—"

"Please be careful!" Feng Yao's face darkened. She was called a liar twice in one day, and she couldn't help feeling a little unhappy, "What did I lie to you?"

The little guy blushed, pointed at Feng Yao, his fingers trembling, and finally burst into tears: "You have caused me so much pain!"

After Feng Yao bought two feet of silk and satin that day, the maid of the county magistrate's wife came back and said that she had made a mistake and wanted to buy the cloth and take it back.The young man and the maid hurriedly went out to look for Fengyao, but the crowd was so vast that they couldn't find it anywhere.In the end, the little servant girl carried two incomplete pieces of cloth back in fear, but she was found by the county magistrate's wife, who scolded her severely, fined her two months' money, and returned the cloth.

When the boy received the returned cloth, he was severely reprimanded by the shopkeeper, who said that if he could not sell the two bolts of cloth, he would have no monthly payment.Thinking of what happened, the boy pointed at Feng Yao and cried loudly: "You have caused me so much misery!"

Feng Yao felt a little pitiful, as it was the case in this highly hierarchical dynasty, there were no laws and labor agencies to protect the rights and interests of laborers.In modern times, which boss would dare to treat employees like this?He was brought to the arbitration institution long ago and punished!
However, sympathy belongs to sympathy, if this matter is to be blamed, it cannot be attributed to her.Just as he was about to say something, Su Xingyan who was beside him spoke first: "You are so unreasonable, young man. It is obvious that the maid misleads you, why do you say that my sister lied to you?"

"What's none of your business? Who are you? Just leave if you don't buy anything, don't meddle in your own business here!" The boy stopped crying at this moment, and began to yell at Su Xingyan.

Feng Yao hurriedly separated the two to avoid disputes, and said to the boy: "If you want to blame me, I won't admit it. But I also feel a little guilty towards you in my heart, how about this, whenever I lack something in the future, I will come to you Is it okay to buy here?"

The little fellow wiped away tears, gave Su Xingyan a hard look, and said to Feng Yao: "Forget it, I'm to blame for my bad luck. What do you want to buy when you come today?"

Feng Yao pointed to Hua Luo who had just taken a fancy to, and said, "I plan to cut this two feet."

At this time, the people who had been watching the fun also felt bored and gradually dispersed.The little guy walked over to hug the flower, cut it two feet, and said, "210 six characters, I'll count you 210 characters."

The young man was only sixteen or seventeen years old, his eyes were still a little red and swollen at the moment, and he lowered his head to hold back his grievances, but the women around him who were waiting to buy cloth felt a little sympathetic: "Oh, you young man, you are really sincere. "

"Yes, don't be sad, we will all come to your house to buy things in the future."

One by one said so, the little boy couldn't help showing surprise, and thanked again and again: "Thank you, thank you everyone!"

Feng Yao paid the money, put away the flowers, and shook her head and smiled when she stepped out of the cloth workshop.

Su Xingyan asked curiously: "What are you laughing at?"

Feng Yao said: "I laugh at this little guy, it's very interesting."
