Tongzhuang Shili Rice Flower Fragrance
Chapter 46
Ming Hongxuan hadn't seen Ming Rou in person since her birthday last time. He heard that the Du family had sent two waves of people to Tongzhuang, but they couldn't bring them back. This made him very sad. disturbed.
In fact, Du Xian already had one or two eyeliners in Tongzhuang, and he knew about Mingrou's general situation, so there is no rush in the past two years, and he should focus on consolidating his Du surname status and expanding his family property. She couldn't spare her hands for a while, and Mingrou was indeed still young, so she originally thought that it would be better to let her suffer a little bit outside, and it would be easier to take her back when the time came.
In such a busy schedule, she forgot about Ming Rou, and it was not until Ming Hongxuan made a sudden visit that she remembered that her daughter had reached Jiji's age.
This is undoubtedly good news for him, because now is the best time to bring her back.
The Du family is at the threshold of a breakthrough. In the past two years, through a lot of connections, I have met some high-ranking officials and dignitaries. The business is also on the rise. But if you want to go up, you have to open up new joints. , I was worried that there was nothing I could get out of it before, but now it seems that the news of Ming Rou came at the right time.
I thought to myself that although I have no son, I have at least two daughters, and when the time comes, I will take in a few beautiful concubines and spread the branches and leaves, so there will be no heirs. It would be great if it could bring 01:30 points of convenience to your business.
Du Xian looked at the boy who was half a head taller than him in front of him, stroked his beard, his eyes sparkled, but he asked unhurriedly: "What do you want to tell me about Rou'er's whereabouts? "
Ming Hongxuan didn't know that Du Xian had actually been in control of Ming Rou's activities for the past two years, so he felt that his trip was of great significance. Although it was a bit unkind to Ming Rou, but in his opinion, no parent in the world loves children, Maybe Mr. Du is a little harsh, but who can do anything to his own flesh and blood.
Thinking like this, he abruptly minimized his sense of guilt.
At least I am sincere to Mingrou, and I will treat her well when I marry her back home in the future, and I will use other methods to make up for her grievances at that time, so that it can be offset.
Now, more than ten days have passed since the time when Ming Rou was informed of Master Du's whereabouts. According to the news from the investigation, Du Xian sent people out several times, but failed to bring Ming Rou back. Ming Hongxuan suddenly became anxious. .
He hesitated whether to go to Du's house and ask Du Xian what to do.
However, just as he was about to go out, he heard a servant come to announce that the Second Miss of the Xu family was visiting.
Ming Hongxuan, Xu Qionghua and Mingrou grew up together since they were young, but since Ye Qiuniang was sent to Tongzhuang five years ago, Mingrou lived in seclusion, and the communication between the three of them was much less. When you go out of the house, you have a better chance to meet. Xu Qionghua and Ming Rou are fine. After they got in touch again, they started a business together. They can be regarded as cooperative partners. The feelings of the little sisters are getting deeper and deeper. It doesn't matter.
Moreover, it was Xu Qionghua that Ming Hongxuan was always looking for, and it was the first time that the second lady came to the door in person, which made Ming Hongxuan's heart skip a beat.
"Ming San, tell me honestly, did you tell Du Xian about Rourou's stay in Tongzhuang?"
Ming Hongxuan's heart jumped wildly. Looking at his old friend, his mouth squirmed a few times and finally he mustered up the courage to say: "I was the one who said that's right, look at where she is now, in such a small yard, she is still in captivity. Poultry, let her go home, it is better than her to go to the fields to transplant rice seedlings and grow rice and vegetables by herself, and to earn some money, I have to do it myself, if she is not tired, I will do it for her, and I can't bear her to work so hard."
Xu Qionghua became angry when he heard it: "At first I didn't believe that you were the one who reported the secret, and I was still convincing myself that the three of us grew up together, you can't do such a thing, I didn't expect it was really you. By the way, Mingsan, Mingsan, I said third young master, are you stupid? Do you know what Du Xian will do after taking Ah Rou back? Maybe she will be betrothed to Master Zhang of Wansheng Granary Be Aunt Nine!"
"Impossible. Uncle Du has already promised me that when A Rou is brought back, he will betroth her to me."
"Confused, third young master, why are you so brainless? Do you think you have anything to attract Du Xian? Do you have property? No, you don't. Your family property is given to your two elder brothers. Can you help your Uncle Du do something? Of course, you don’t have the ability either. You don’t like our little rouge maker, you look down on the farmers who work in the fields, and you don’t like this or that. No, but have you done anything yourself? No, you haven’t achieved anything until now, you can’t even pass a child’s exam, and you don’t know anything about business. Why do you want to marry Ah Rou? You are not worthy.”
After Xu Qionghua finished speaking, he stomped his feet, turned around angrily and left without waiting for his response.
But Ming Hongxuan who was behind was blasted on the head by her words like five thunderbolts, and he froze in place, his eyes lost focus, as if there was only a shell left.
With the help of Fushuiyao, Mingrou's rouge shop is almost ready. On this day, Fushuiyao invited her to the county town to see what needs to be improved, so Ye Qiuniang arranged the things at hand and specially brought her Followed Ming Rou to look at the storefront.
The shop is located in the downtown area, and there are several rouge and gouache shops in the surrounding area, and there are many people coming and going. It can be seen that it took Fu Shuiyao a lot of effort to find this good location.
After repeated discussions by several people, the name of the store was finally decided as "Mingyan Rouge Pavilion", and the "autumn" was still used as a symbol on the rouge gouache box.
Now that the sales volume has increased and the market has opened, Fushuiyao has found a reliable carpenter shop to cooperate with, and the other party will produce their rouge boxes on a regular basis, including various containers and boxes for rouge paste, rouge powder, and spices. Come, the packaging grade of the whole product has been greatly improved in an instant.
After seeing the shop, Ye Qiuniang took Mingrou around the street, bought some food, and was about to take a carriage back to Tongzhuang, but unexpectedly met two unexpected people in front of a big restaurant, Du Xian Zhang Guofu was surrounded by these four or five people, and the two groups met face to face, with different expressions on their faces.
When Ming Rou saw the man in front of her, she turned around and left without saying a word.
"Stop, you rebellious girl, you have such an attitude when you see your father, it's the opposite."
Only then did Ming Rou turn around, but there was no fear on her face, with a sneer that didn't match her age: "Master Du, the day you kicked me out of the house, the relationship between us has already been severed." I'm clean, and as your son-in-law, why can you tell me what to do?"
"Presumptuous, a little girl from Juju dares to commit such a crime. It seems that if you don't practice family law in the street today, you don't even know what filial piety is and what etiquette is."
After Du Xian finished speaking, he beckoned and ordered the servants behind him to come forward to grab him.
Just as the servants were about to step forward, they heard a cold voice in their ears.
"I'll see who dares to—"
There was an irresistible sense of oppression in the words, and several people seemed to be frozen in place for an instant, not daring to take a step forward.
When Du Xian saw that it was Ye Qiuniang, he was even more angry.
"Ye Qiuniang, you lowly maidservant, how did you steal property from the old man in such a shameful way, that you pretended to be a scholar of Tongzhuang, and now you still dare to stand here and point fingers at us, it is really unreasonable."
Ye Qiuniang sneered and said, "No matter what my status is, I'm better than you. It's not like you kicked out the Ming family and took over the property of your wife."
Du Xian knows that he has a bad reputation, and he doesn't want to make people laugh at him here, but now that he sees his own daughter, he is even more unwilling to let go.
I haven't seen her for two years. The originally thin and petite little girl has now turned into a tall, beautiful girl with outstanding looks. No wonder Ming Hongxuan never forgets her. It can make other Liugong Fendai lose color.
And look at Ye Qiuniang at the side, tall, gentle and alienated, she is definitely an enviable character in the backyard, thinking that this girl was almost taken down by him back then, Du Xian couldn't help but want to smash it. .
Thinking like this is even more inevitable.
On the other side, Zhang Guofu's eyes were glued to the two women, one big and one small in front of him like glue, and he was even more reluctant to blink.
Ye Qiuniang naturally saw Du Xian's intentions, pulled Ming Rou behind her and said: "Rou'er is now a young scholar of the Ming family, and has nothing to do with you. If you are sensible, go a little farther away. This place is also far away from the county government. It's near, and it's convenient to report to the official, if Master Du doesn't believe it, you can give it a try."
What Ye Qiuniang said was not unreasonable. Du Xian looked at the tall and strong guards behind the two of them, and then looked at the crooked melons and dates behind him. He knew that if he really used martial arts, his men might not be opponents. , beckoning him back resentfully.
But she still didn't give up and wanted to give Ming Rou a bad blow with a few harsh words.
Unexpectedly, before he opened his mouth, he saw Ye Qiuniang's chin, and several strong guards ignored the people around them, and directly stretched out their hands to block them, and walked forward to protect Mingrou and Ye Qiuniang.
Du Xianhe was so neglected that he jumped his feet angrily.
On the other hand, Zhang Guofu licked his lips and said: "Brother Du, I said earlier that I wanted to meet my ninth aunt. You were too young to shirk the child, but now it seems that she is not young at all. My eighth aunt is younger than Ling Ai." One year younger."
Du Xian didn't expect Zhang Guofu to be so lecherous even when he was nearly half a hundred years old. Seeing the salivation on his face, he snorted coldly and said, "Brother Zhang said it was easy, but it is not easy to raise my daughter who is so big. She was weak and sickly when she was young." , fed so many medicinal materials, and after she recovered from her illness, I spent a lot of money to invite the old gentleman from Hanlin to teach her personally. I will not marry her off easily, and there are so many interests involved between our two families. If you take away such a precious daughter as me, I will lose this business no matter what."
"Brother Du, brother Du, the family does not speak two different languages. As the saying goes, one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers. I don't want to argue with you at my age. I just want to find someone who knows the cold and the hot to spend the rest of my life. That's right, and the one next to her is her former maid, right? If you can give them both to me, I won't rob you of the fat job of the imperial court. I can also give up the dozens of cooperative small businesses before. You, you eat meat and I drink soup, you just need to give me a proper place to lay my feet, and I will take good care of myself in the future, is it possible?"
Zhang Guofu squinted a pair of cloudy eyes, just now he caught a glimpse of Mingrou and Ye Qiuniang, one is sweet and pleasant, the other is cold and energetic, it is really itchy, he can't help himself for a while, he is willing to cut his own leg to ask Du Xian to be fulfilled.
Moreover, with his cunning and cunning temperament, once he got the man, after it became a firm fact, the man would belong to him, and he could do whatever he wanted about the business, and Du Xian could do whatever he wanted at that time.
In fact, Du Xian already had one or two eyeliners in Tongzhuang, and he knew about Mingrou's general situation, so there is no rush in the past two years, and he should focus on consolidating his Du surname status and expanding his family property. She couldn't spare her hands for a while, and Mingrou was indeed still young, so she originally thought that it would be better to let her suffer a little bit outside, and it would be easier to take her back when the time came.

"Impossible. Uncle Du has already promised me that when A Rou is brought back, he will betroth her to me."
