The Queen Mother's Kitchen Knife

Chapter 566
At this time, Zhang Qingshan, who didn't know that there was the Princess Regent in the carriage, stopped Minzhi and asked: "I don't know when the girl will be free, I want to invite the girl to go to Qingfengyuan to listen to the play."

Take a step.

Min Zhi didn't turn his head back: "Huh?"

"I would like to invite you, Miss, to go to Qingfengyuan to listen to an opera together."

Minzhi's eyes widened with his back to Zhang Qingshan, and suddenly his cheeks felt a little hot.

"Well...why invite me to go?"

If anyone pays attention to the expression on Minzhi's face at this time, they will definitely notice that her gaze is erratic, and her white teeth are slightly biting her lower lip nervously.

In this regard, Zhang Qingshan looked at the account book in his hand, and explained calmly: "The girl comes to check the account every few days, it is really hard work. It is my consolation to the girl."

Hearing this, Minzhi's fingers twitched suddenly.

Hearing this reason, she didn't know why, but she was very unhappy.

Min Zhi had waited for a long time for the invitation, but he didn't think it was because of the reason of comforting her for her hard work.Moreover, did he have something in his words, was... satirizing her for coming frequently?
Thinking of the possibility of a needle hidden in the cotton, Minzhi almost choked back tears in his eye sockets.

Insinuating that she has no shame?

The master was still in the carriage, Min Zhi naturally would not agree to Zhang Qingshan.After she said "I'm going to ask the master", she got into the car and left without looking back.

After Min Zhi got into the carriage, there was no other movement in the carriage.The coachman swung a short whip, and whipped the horse's buttocks a few times, and the carriage moved slowly.

Looking at the carriage going away, Zhang Qingshan shook the ledger in his hand.After the carriage disappeared from sight, she still stood in front of her rouge shop for a long time.

Should she?

The curtain swayed back and forth as the carriage moved.There is no noise outside the car, and the inside of the car is also surprisingly quiet.

Tang Jingyue stared at Min Zhi with sizing eyes, which made Min Zhi feel uncomfortable.

"Master, master." Min Zhi interrupted the weird atmosphere.The little grievance that was a bit humiliating disappeared without a trace under the strange gaze of the master.

Tang Jingyue said: "I come to check the account every few days." This was repeating what the young man said just now.

Knowing that his master was looking for trouble, Min Zhi sat upright with his neck curled up, not daring to speak.

Tang Jingyue just pointed her fingers at her knees and pressed Minzhi with her eyes.

"You are so brave, you dare to lie in front of me." Tang Jingyue raised her brows, half serious and half joking, "Just now I asked you if you have been here many times during this period, but you denied it. Since you denied it just now, tell me now, what does 'check the account every few days' mean?"

Hearing the sternness in the master's tone, Min Zhi lowered his head firmly, knowing that he had done something wrong.

Regardless of whether it is a big or small matter, public or private, it is wrong to lie in front of the master!
Just now she was afraid, afraid that the master and Sister Rui would make fun of her, after all, she and Zhang Qingshan had nothing to do with each other other than auditing and being audited.

"Your servant is wrong. I should not have lied. In the past half a month, my servant has indeed come here every three or four days." Min Zhi confessed honestly.

"Is it because of the man who spoke just now?" Tang Jingyue could see Min Zhi's carelessness at a glance, so she didn't hide it.

Minzhi nodded: "Yes. His name is Zhang Qingshan, he is the son of the shopkeeper of Yanzhi. The servant feels that he is somewhat transparent in managing accounts, so..."
