Chapter 107 Family Exile
Mr. Zhou came up to pay his respects with the land deeds of two shops in his hand: "Princess, the princess, let me go with you to see the shop."
"Then I'll trouble Mr. Zhou." Mingruo started to use breakfast.
"No trouble...No trouble, I'll go down and prepare the car first."
"Okay." Mingruo nodded.
After breakfast, Mingruo went out wearing a thick fox fur cloak. The snow yesterday was accumulated on the ground, which was particularly cold. The green bamboo forest looked very beautiful. Among the green bamboos and snow, a figure wearing a big red feather satin cloak came slowly with the support of two maids.
Mingruo saw the person clearly and his eyes twitched.
"Bi Chi has seen her cousin's wife." Chen Bi Chi held a high bun and wore a golden silk slanted phoenix slanted phoenix slanted phoenix slanted phoenix slanted phoenix slanted phoenix slanted phoenix slanted phoenix slanted phoenix slanted phoenix slanted phoenix slanted phoenix slanted phoenix slanted phoenix slanted phoenix slanted phoenix slanted phoenix slanted phoenix slanted phoenix slanted phoenix slanted phoenix ."
"Oh." Mingruo nodded and said he knew. This cousin of Bichi came here early in the morning, not to show off her new jewelry.
"My aunt also gave me a piece of jewelry for my cousin's wife, and I asked me to bring it back to me." Chen Bichi winked at Cuihuan, and Cuihuan held a brocade box in front of Mingruo.
"I'll send it to my maid. The road is slippery on the snow. I'll have to take a trip to me in person." Mingruo said politely.
"I also want to talk to my cousin's wife. Is she going to Meiyuan?" Chen Bichi asked with a smile.
"If you don't go to Meiyuan, go out." Does cousin Bichi want to enter Meiyuan? Sorry, it's not going well.
"I may not have been shopping on the street for a long time, so I will go with my cousin's wife." Chen Bichi's eyes rolled and he followed.
Mingruo has a black thread. Is this cousin of Bichi who is a dog skin plaster? Why can't he get rid of it once it is touched: "I'm going to my grandfather's house..."
If Bichi's cousin still wants to be with her, Mingruo can only convince him.
Is the Duke of Jingguo Mansion? Chen Bichi really dare not go to! Who doesn’t know that the Duke of Jingguo and his family have been stationed in the border town all year round. It is said that they have a very irritable temper. No matter men, women, young and old, they can carry guns to battle.
"Then I won't disturb my cousin's wife anymore." Chen Bichi walked quickly with the two maids.
"Huh?" Ming Ruo was a little puzzled, "Why did he run so fast..."
"Miss Cousin should be afraid that you will invite her to the Duke of Jingguo Mansion." Zi Su guessed.
"She's really thinking too much." Mingruo shrugged.
Several people got on the carriage. Mingruo took the brocade box in Zi Su's hand and opened it. It was a golden squirrel hairpin, which was neither expensive nor delicate. If it were not compared with the gorgeous golden phoenix shaking on the head of Chen Bichi, it would be a gift. But compared with the two, the hairpin was used to hit Mingruo's face.
Zi Su was so angry that she just wanted to throw the hairpin out of the carriage. The concubine bullied people too much. She liked the cousin and rewarded whatever she wanted. Why did she have to bring such a hairpin to her princess?
Ming Ruo patted Zi Su's back of his hand comfortably: "As the saying goes, the gift is light and the affection is heavy!"
"..." The princess is so generous.
Mingruo threw the brocade box back into Zi Su's arms: "Put it away. If the concubine asks about it one day, if she can't find it, she will talk about Stories from a Chinese Studio."
"Princess, what is a Chinese Studio?" Zi Su asked curiously.
"Ahem, "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio" is a storybook." Anyway, it's idle, so Ming Ruo told Zi Su about "Yingning" and "Painted Skin".
Zi Su's face was so scared that her little face turned pale, she begged the princess to say more.
"Princess, are there really painted ghosts in this world?"
"Yes." Ming Ruo nodded seriously.
"Ah!" Zi Su was even more scared, "Princess... have you... seen it?"
"Not only I have seen it, but you have seen it too." Mingruo replied with a smile.
Zi Su hugged her chest with her hands, her eyes searching around like a searchlight: "Where is it?"
"Do you think the lady looks like her?" Mingruo smiled so hard that his eyebrows were curved.
Zi Su was about to complain that the princess was scaring people, but after thinking about it carefully, Miss Cousin looked very kind every time she saw the princess, but she did anything either open or hidden arrows, just like that painted ghost.
"Princess, we are here." Butler Zhou's voice came from outside the carriage.
Zi Su stepped forward to help the princess get up with her cloak and helped her get out of the car.
As soon as Ming Ruo got out of the car, he heard a clang. He looked at the sound and saw two servants climbing down the ladder, throwing a gilded plaque not far away. It was obvious that they had just removed it.
"Huh?" Mingruo looked at the two words "Xilu" on the plaque, "Xilu".
Butler Zhou walked over quickly: "Didn't you let you clean up yesterday? Why isn't you going to do it now?"
The two servants quickly replied: "The shop is cleaned up, but just remembered that the plaque has not been removed yet. Before you can put it in place, you are here."
"Take these rags away quickly, don't block your master's way." Butler Zhou directed the servant to move the plaque of Xilou away.
The front of the door was quickly cleaned up, and Zi Su helped the princess into the store.
"Is this...the Xilou selling rouge and water powder?" Mingruo asked uncertainly.
If I remember correctly, the shopkeeper of Xilou threatened to make her unable to stay in the emperor. How long has it been, why can't he even open a store?
"It's that Xilou." Mr. Zhou said immediately, "Mr. Liu committed a crime and confiscated his property. Except for his daughter who was married, all of them were exiled to Mangzhou."
"Isn't it the shop run by Concubine Li's outside family?" After all, it was the emperor's father-in-law. How big a thing has it been done? As for the whole family being convicted.
"This year, floods are rampant, and the emperor is investigating. I found out a few days ago that something went wrong with the embankment built by Mr. Liu. Civil and industrial materials were inferior. Mr. Liu greed hundreds of thousands of dollars from it, and the emperor was furious. If the Empress Li hadn't knelt outside the imperial study room for a day and a night, Mr. Liu's head would probably be gone." Mr. Zhou seemed to know this very well.
"Oh." Mingruo was not very concerned about other people's affairs and started wandering around the store.
This shop is very big, with a small yard behind three floors.
"Princess, what shop do you want to open?" Zi Su followed Mingruo around the store, "A shop with such a big one is wasted only selling floral dew."
"I can sell a lot of things." Mingruo raised his arrogant little chin.
Mingruo originally wanted to open a store to sell cosmetics, but when he saw such a large store, he had the idea of opening a styling club: the first floor mainly sells cosmetics, the second floor mainly sells jewelry, and the third floor mainly sells clothing. A place on the third floor is set aside to train some makeup artists to do overall beauty and outfits for customers. As long as they can become beautiful, women will definitely go crazy about it.
However, in this way, many people need to be reliable people, otherwise all kinds of formulas and drawings will be leaked in minutes, so how can I play...
