Hearing Xuanying's call for help, and then seeing the place where the sound came from, the big brass lock on the door in the middle of the room, everyone looked at Liu Shi and Qinglan Qingzhi mother and daughter, with strange expressions on their faces, and began to discuss .

"Mother, what the hell is going on here? Why did you lock the second girl here?" Qing Zhi stomped her feet anxiously. Fortunately, she just swore to the black boy that it was impossible for the second girl to be in this shop. Li, this is a slap in the face, isn't it? !

"I, this... I don't know about this either!" Mrs. Liu said blushingly.She was already dull, and she didn't know how to argue in such a situation, let alone tell a lie.

"You're lying!" Xuanying heard the words loudly, "Half an hour ago you delivered the meal, and now it's still at the door. How dare you say you didn't know?"

"..." Everyone fell silent and looked at Mrs. Liu in unison.

"Mother, what's going on? You're talking!" Qing Zhi hurried over and shook Liu's arm vigorously.

"I, I don't know... It's your father and that lord who locked the second girl here. They only want me to deliver food to the second girl, so don't starve her...I don't know anything else I don't know, I don't know..." Liu lowered her head, nana authentically.

"Sister Qinglan, Sister Qingzhi, it seems that the two of you are really ignorant; I don't blame you either. You let me out first, and I don't need to report to the police. I will find out what happened. Let’s talk again.” Xuan Ying thought for a while, then said in a deep voice.

"Hurry up and release the second girl from the master's house. She has said that she will not report to the police, and those who don't know will not be guilty!"

"That's right, a shopkeeper, I don't know what's on his mind, he even locked up the girl of the master's house, which is fine! If it's like this in the shop, it's not a mess! Today I saw a rough road, so I'm going I have to put the words here, if they dare not let them go, I will report to the government for their master!" From the crack of the door, Xiying could see that this was a tall and tall young woman, who looked very angry, and she seemed to be Things hurt their kind.

"Grandma Rong San is right! Such shopkeepers and fellows should be punished!"

"Release him quickly, and if we dare not let him go, we will report to the authorities!" The crowd became turbulent for a while, and everyone shouted, so anxious that Qingzhi kept shaking Mrs. Liu, "Mother, hurry up and get the key, we will let you go!" Get the second girl!"

Mrs. Liu was already timid and guilty, seeing that everyone was annoyed, she didn't dare to be tough, so she had to get the key from her waist, and opened the door tremblingly.

Xiying walked out of the room, saluted and thanked everyone who spoke just now, especially the outspoken Grandma Rong San, and praised with a smile, "Grandma is really a girl in a pile of powder Heroes, heroes among women, when the opportunity arises, Xiuying must thank Grandma Rong San for saving her!"

Third Grandma Rong just smiled, "It's just that people have the same heart and the same reason. Who told me that I can't tolerate sand in my eyes!" After looking up and down, she said meaningfully, "Lord It's even more rare for a girl from home, she is so young, she is not chaotic in the face of danger, and she has a strategy in her chest, when you grow up, we people will just assign you to be a raft!"

She had been mixing balm in the store just now, and she had noticed it since the first time Zhou Cheng rushed into the store to ask for someone, but at that time she only regarded it as an accident.It wasn't until Zhou Cheng came in from the backyard to yell again that she was shrewd and knew at a glance that this was the boy just now. It was only then that the matter aroused her interest, so she followed everyone to the backyard and roughly guessed the cause and effect of the matter.

The reason why she speaks outrightly is that one is really outraged, as the master, no one can tolerate this kind of bullying behavior; the other is that she is very curious, she wants to see, so it is considered exhaustive, this second girl What kind of character.

Xiu Ying smiled without saying a word, and said after a while, "Grandma Rong San praised you! I don't have any strategy, but I just happen to have a loyal servant, he doesn't trust me, he just makes up his own mind!"

Mistress Rong was taken aback for a moment, then laughed after a while, "Okay, you can make up your own mind! It's really rare for a girl to be so modest and restrained at such a young age. If it wasn't for the fact that she was a little younger, I would really like to make friends with you."

Xiying smiled and took her hand, "Grandma Rong San's demeanor is not from an ordinary family at first glance. You don't need to befriend me, I have to rush to curry favor with you! If grandma doesn't dislike it, then Recognize me as a girl. To be disrespectful, grandma is no older than me anyway, so why put on a show here?"

"Haha, look, she's beautiful, smart, and has a cute mouth. Tell me, how unfair the heavens are, that she is the only one who favors this good fortune!" Third Grandma Rong covered her mouth with a veil and smiled. Unstoppable, "Forget it, I just recognized you as my sister. My husband's family name is Rong, Xingsan, and he lives in Wuyi Lane not far from here. If you want to visit me, go to the third house in the alley. There are six or seven sweet-scented osmanthus trees in front of me, that’s my home.” At the same time, he asked the maid next to him, “Where’s my purse?”

The maid hurriedly brought a purse embroidered with light yellow flower tassels, Third Grandma Rong rummaged through it, took out an extremely exquisite fragrant copper ball from the purse, and handed it to Xuan Ying, "Sister, take it and play with it. It's a small thing, not worth much money; but this incense is made by me, which is different from others. My family also has a spice shop, and these are all good spices from Boluo mud country, which are rare even in Kyoto. We, the rich and honored place in the south of the Yangtze River, are so particular about it."

Xuan Ying hurriedly took it, thanked her, and wanted to find something for her from her own body. It was only after she touched it that she remembered that she had changed into a servant's attire for the convenience of going out these few days. I don’t have any money, so I can’t help but feel a little embarrassed, "I also have something to give to my sister, but unfortunately, I just didn’t bring it with me. How about this, just give [-]% of the price to the things that my sister likes in the shop today. I can still do it."

Rong blinked, "I thought my sister would say, if I like something in your shop, my sister will give it to me!"

Xiuying also smiled, "If I have to do what is right, I really can't. As long as I can decide, how about giving these things to my sister? Since I can't, then I can only show my heart. You and your mother must come to the door to thank you."

Rong smiled again, "You can't stop you if you talk too fast, so you are smart." Patting the back of Xiuying's hand, her tone became more friendly, "Sister, since we hit it off right away, I have to remind you of something. Your family I don't know about things like this, but things in this shop can't break the rules; these guys, if they can do the first grade of junior high school, they can do the fifteenth grade. Who is the master of your family, you can have a good life. He knows that it is not too late to mend the situation, and this should be dealt with, so we must not be lenient!"

After Mistress Rong left with her family, the customers in the shop gradually dispersed. Qinglan Qingzhi felt guilty and hurried to the front counter to guard. Liu Shi was about to excuse herself and was stopped by Xuanying, but After asking a few words, she poured beans out of the bamboo tube and told the whole story about the man.

According to Liu, an official surnamed Nayou appeared in the store ten days before the mother and daughter returned. At that time, Qingdong was asking the masters to repair the collapsed backyard, so Liu and the two daughters had to share the house. In one house, Qingdong and his son Qinglai lived in another room—that was originally used as a kitchen and a place to store sundries.Even at this point, the family never thought about living in the attic.An official surnamed Nayou came to the store and found repair masters coming in and out of the store, so he asked Qingdong what was going on.

When Qingdong saw the man's demeanor, he hesitated at first, thinking that it was the official of the city inspector he had reported to check, but instead reported the shop's theft situation, daily income and expenditure, and previous years' accounts. The situation and so on are all explained clearly.

Only then did the officer surnamed You show him the handwriting of the Patriarch of the Zheng family, and told him his identity, and promised the family to move to the attic, and promised to have his backing when the time came.Qingdong thought about it, and his wife's natal family also agreed, so this person must be the future head of the family without a doubt.If you can please the owner of the family and get benefits for yourself, why not do it?

And You Chongyi's purpose, of course, is to make Mrs. Zheng want to marry her in a lonely and helpless situation; if he puts a little effort into her, there is no reason why it will not work. .Therefore, not only this shop, but also all properties under Zheng's name have been instructed and arranged by him.

Xiuying recalled the situation of the past few days, and remembered what he said when the surname You went out just now?

Is it a certainty in a few days?

Since he has been planning for so long, then the matter is already under his control?Recalling Zheng's abnormality these past few days, Xuanying couldn't help but screamed in her heart, it's broken!

It's going to rain, and my mother is going to get married. It seems that it can't be stopped. Then, I can only find a place to shelter myself from the wind and rain before it rains!

With this in mind, Xuanying couldn't care less about dealing with Liu's mother and daughter. She has more important things to do now.

She quickly ran out of the rouge shop, and saw Zhou Cheng poking his head not far away, he seemed to be waiting for her.

As soon as he saw Xiuying going out, he immediately came up to greet him, and was about to ask something, when Xiuying said eagerly, "Zhou Cheng, come on, come back to the shop with me!"

Zhou Cheng followed her and ran across the street to the inn. While running, he told Xuanying that Xiuxiu and Mother He had gone out together.

Xuan Ying paused, gritted her teeth, "I know!"

"But second girl, what are we going to do?" Zhou Cheng asked curiously.

"Catch the traitor!" Xuan Ying gritted her teeth authentically.

"What, what?" Zhou Cheng staggered and almost fell.He is still a child!Besides, is this something the girl can say?

"Hmph, if you don't want to, I'll go alone! When I meet your old lady, you should be a coward again!" Xuan Ying deliberately provoked him.

Zhou Cheng became anxious immediately, "Just go, who is afraid of whom! Why am I being a coward? I'm not afraid of my mother!"

Sure enough, as soon as the two rushed to the corridor of the inn, they saw Mama Lu's fat body lying there like a wall.Seeing the two men running up, Lu's mother was startled, and immediately stopped them with her arms outstretched, "My wife is taking a nap, the girl can't go in, I'm disturbing my wife." Then she scolded Zhou Cheng, "The donkey ball came in, Take girls around all day long! Where's your brother? Didn't you go to see the house?"

Xu Ying pushed her fat arm away vigorously, "Go away, I have something urgent to do with my mother!"

Lu's mother hugged Xuanying, "Second girl, you really can't go in, the wife said, no one is allowed to come in, girl go out and play for a while and come back!"

Xiuying winked at Zhou Cheng, Zhou Cheng gritted his teeth, bumped into Lu's mother, then he tried to break away from Lu's mother's hand, Xuanying took the opportunity to run away, heard Lu's mother yelling from behind, and turned around. Look, Zhou Cheng didn't make a sound, he just hugged Mama Lu tightly, half a child, half a head taller than Mama Lu, Mama Lu couldn't help him.

Xuan Ying ran straight to the first-class guest room where the family lived, knocked on the door, and heard Zheng's panicked voice asking, "Who is it?"
