Hua Manman picked up the teacup, but didn't drink it, just held it in the palm of his hand.

The tea flowed into her palm through the cup, and her fingers, which had been blown cold by the cold wind, became warmer.

She asked softly, "Apart from playing the piano and singing, does Yue Niang have any other hobbies?"

Yueniang looked at the teacup in her hand and answered in a low voice.

"My family can also be a female celebrity, and I can do some needlework when I have nothing to do."

Hua Manman: "Did you make the clothes on your body by yourself?"

After getting an affirmative answer, Hua Manman praised it sincerely.

"Your hands are really skillful, and the clothes are beautifully made. If you don't sing in the future, you can consider becoming an embroiderer."

Yueniang lowered her eyelashes and smiled self-deprecatingly.

"How can such a lowly person from the slave family deserve to be a embroiderer?"

In the past, she also took the embroidery she made to the embroidery shop, hoping to sell some money to subsidize the family. The shopkeeper of the embroidery shop learned that she played the piano and sang songs for others, so he rejected the embroidery she sent.

She will never forget the eyes of the shopkeeper at that time, full of disgust and contempt.

Although she has not entered the brothel, in the eyes of outsiders, she is no different from those whores in the brothel.

She is dirty, so the embroidery she makes is naturally dirty too.

Hua Manman: "I think your embroidery is very good. If you have surplus embroidery, you can sell it to me. I will pay you according to the market price."

Yueniang thought she had heard wrong, so she froze in place, staring blankly at the other party.

It took a long time to say.

"My family knows that Mr. Lang is a good person, but Mr. Ji has self-knowledge. You don't have to spend money to buy useless things just to show sympathy."

Hua Manman put on a serious expression.

"I'm not out of sympathy, but I really think your embroidery is very good.

You also know that we are here to do business in Lingxi City.

In addition to purchasing tea for this trip, we have to buy some other things.

I saw that your embroidery work is very good, so I wanted to buy some by the way, would you like it? "

Yueniang felt like she was dreaming.

This is the first time in her life that she has been affirmed by others.

It's not the kind of teasing with intimacy, but a serious recognition of her.

Yueniang felt her nose was sore and her eye sockets were hot.

In addition to being moved, a strong sense of guilt welled up in my heart.

She couldn't help but want to say something.

"My slave... my slave..."

She wanted to tell the other party that this tea was poisonous, and wanted the other party to leave here quickly.

From the corner of the eye, he caught a glimpse of a corner of the clothes at the door.

It was as if her throat was strangled by an invisible big hand, and she could no longer make a sound, and her eyes showed horror.

Hua Manman, Li Ji, and Li Liao followed her line of sight, and also saw the corner of the clothes exposed by the door.

At this time, the grandmother walked out slowly with her back bent and a cane.

She also held a plate of mung bean cakes in her hand.

"I heard that there are guests at home, and there is nothing else to entertain you at home, only this plate of mung bean cakes can be sold, and I hope all the distinguished guests will not be disgusted."

Grandma put the plate of mung bean cake on the table, with a smile on her wrinkled face, looking very kind and kind.

Yueniang hurriedly stood up and helped her grandmother to sit down.

"Aren't you resting in the house? Why did you come out?"

"There are guests at home, so I have to come out and say hello, otherwise it seems that our family is not polite?"

Grandma paused when she said this, her gaze swept across the three people present, her smile became more amiable.

"Don't sit still, eat quickly."

Hua Manman smiled and said yes.

She was drinking tea with her head down when she heard Yueniang suddenly make a sound.

"Wait a minute, this tea is cold, I'll give you another cup."

After finishing speaking, Yueniang didn't wait for the other party's reaction, she grabbed the teacup from the other party's hand and poured the tea out the door.

Grandma was very dissatisfied.

If it was normal, she would definitely teach Yueniang a lesson.

But now in front of outsiders, grandma is not easy to lose her temper, so she can only suppress her temper and show a helpless expression.

"This child, Yueniang, is always frizzy. How can she snatch a cup from a guest? It's too rude."

Hua Manman: "It's okay, I think Yueniang is very good, she is simple and straightforward, and she is much better than some bad things that seem kind on the surface, but are actually full of bad things."

The grandmother who seems to be kind on the surface, but actually has a bad stomach: "..."

I suspect you're implicating me, although I have no proof.

Yueniang picked up the teapot and poured Hua Manman another cup of hot tea.

Because I was too nervous, my hands were shaking badly, and I accidentally spilled some tea on Hua Manman when pouring tea.

The hem of Huamanman's clothes was wet.

The grandmother scowled, "Yueniang, how do you do things? Why can't you even do such a trivial thing as pouring a cup of tea?!"

Yueniang knelt down hastily, and said sincerely and fearfully.

"It's my fault, I'll ask Mr. Lang to change clothes next door."

It's really not appropriate to wear wet clothes in this cold weather.

Even though grandma was very dissatisfied, she could only agree.

"Go and come back quickly."

Yueniang stood up and turned to Hua Manman.

"Mr. Lang, please follow Mr. Lang to change clothes."

Hua Manman: "It's just a little wet on the hem of the clothes, it's nothing serious."

Yueniang was worried and insisted.

"Just now, the slave's service was not good enough, and I begged Mr. Lang to give the slave a chance to atone for his crimes.

There are still clothes left by my father in the servant's house, you can wear them as you please.

Wait until the slave family has dried your clothes before returning them to you. "

Hua Manman smiled helplessly: "I never blamed you, you don't have to be so nervous."

After finishing speaking, she stood up and followed Yueniang out.

When Yueniang was about to step out of the room, she heard her grandmother say something pointedly.

"Come back quickly after changing your clothes, don't delay the business of the guests."

Yueniang knew that what grandma said was about poisoning the three people.

She pursed her red lips and replied.

"I see."

After Hua Manman and Yueniang left, the grandmother looked at Li Ji and Li Liao sitting in front of her, and said with a smile.

"It's a cold day, please send Yueniang back, drink some hot tea to warm up."

Li Liao pushed the cup of hot tea in his hand in front of his grandmother.

"You are an elder, how can you watch us drink tea and eat snacks? I haven't touched this cup of tea yet, so don't dislike it."

The smile on Grandma's face froze slightly.

How could she drink this cup of poisoned tea?

She immediately declined.

"Thank you for your kindness, but there's no need. I don't like drinking tea. I usually can't fall asleep when I drink tea. You should drink this tea."

Li Liao showed surprise: "It turns out that you are always like me, you always suffer from insomnia when you drink tea, what a coincidence."

grandmother:"……"

She couldn't believe such a coincidence!

Li Liao: "This mung bean cake is really good, it looks delicious."

Grandma cheered up immediately: "I bought this mung bean cake from a time-honored store. It tastes very sweet and delicious. Please try it."

Just in case, she also poisoned the mung bean cake.

As long as the opponent eats mung bean cake, he will bleed to death from his seven orifices in less than a cup of tea.
