Chapter 568 Self-recommendation
Hu Tang lifted a corner of the curtain, looked out warily for a few times, turned around and whispered: "How do you know?"
"I just listened to the corner."
Xia Qianqian briefly told the story of how she met Zhao Shu and Feng Wei in a corner of the Huahai Garden.
With a wave of her hands, she took out the earth-colored metal stick from the Ruyi bracelet, "This is what I found in the flowerpot."
Hu Tang took a closer look and blurted out: "This is the key."
Key?
This square-shaped metal stick is three inches long, with a flat top end and five tooth marks.
With her eyes, she never imagined that it could be a key.
"I wonder where the key is?" Xia Qianqian muttered.
"There is a library in the backyard of Yunlan Villa. The door key there is similar to this key. I once had the opportunity to see it from Mrs. E. There are three tooth marks on the top of the key."
"Then these five tooth marks..."
"There is a secret room at the top of the library that has not been opened all year round."
Huh?
Xia Qianqian was surprised that Hu Tang even knew these secrets about Yunlan Villa.
Hu Tang smiled and explained: "Our Hu Mansion organizes the Flower Viewing Festival at Yunlan Villa. It is said that if you know yourself and your enemy, you will be victorious in any battle. I must investigate some things clearly."
"Only by knowing some taboos and secrets in the Lord's family can we avoid accidentally touching them and destroying each other's trust."
That’s right.
Xia Qianqian weighed the key in her hand and frowned, "So, Mrs. E doesn't have the key to the secret room either."
Because this key was sent from the capital, and it is shady.
"I heard..." Hu Tang whispered: "This Yunlan Villa belonged to His Highness the King Xian before the eldest princess."
Hu Tang's face changed as if he was startled, "Could it be that there is something important hidden in that secret room by His Highness the King Xian?"
"His Highness suppressed the bandits in Fanshan and drove Feng Wei out. He had a grudge, so he teamed up with others to steal the key and tried to steal something vital to His Highness."
Xia Qianqian took a deep breath.
Hu Tang’s analysis is not unreasonable.
If Cuttlefish's things fall into Feng Wei's hands, his actions will definitely be hijacked.
It has been a stick of incense time since Feng Wei got the things. He may have gone to the library early.
Can't wait.
Xia Qianqian was extremely anxious, "I'll go to the library to have a look."
"What are you looking at!" Hu Tang grabbed him, "How can a little girl deal with Feng Wei?"
He lowered his voice and said: "Don't forget, you are Xia Qianqian now, not Lanyu."
If she were Lan Yu, she would be the Jade-faced Immortal.
The identity of the Jade-faced Immortal Lord must not be exposed to others.
"But I..."
"You wait here." Hu Tang held her down, "I will find a way to inform His Highness the King Xian."
"If he believes in me, everything will be easy. If he doesn't believe in me, I will be exposed.
"If I am really caught by Zhao Shu, I can argue that I was drunk and my eyes and ears were dazzled and I heard the wrong thing."
"Then what..." Xia Qianqian wanted to refute.
"Why not!" Hu Tang blinked at her, "Qianqian, I am a person, and my punishment is just a slap in the face. But you are different, there are so many people behind you."
"If something happens to you, they will all suffer."
He warned earnestly: "Zhao Shu and Feng Wei both practice martial arts, and their five senses are very sensitive. If you hide aside and listen, you may have been discovered by them."
"Now, whether you go to the Ziwei Pavilion or the Library Pavilion, it may be a trap."
Xia Qianqian brought Hu Tang here because she wanted him to help with advice, not because she wanted to push him out and use him as a shield. "It's a trap, so you can't go."
"They set a trap, and the person they want to catch is you, not me. So, it is a trap for you, but it is not dangerous for me."
He raised the car curtain with one hand and said solemnly: "Remember, you must wait for me to come back."
The curtain was lowered and he strode away.
Xia Qianqian stayed in place, feeling extremely complicated.
The curtain was opened again, and Li Yunniang looked in with a surprised look on her face, "What happened?"
"There's something wrong." Xia Qianqian's facial features wrinkled.
"What's the matter?" Li Yunniang ran over worriedly.
Xia Qianqian pouted and said: "Master Hu said that the ladies like Xuan Ya Ge's clothes very much and ordered a lot. He was very happy."
"This is all thanks to the publicity we gave him. He wants to share it with us."
"Shared?" Li Yunniang's eyes were filled with stars.
"Yes, divided."
"Will Yupin Pavilion also give us a share?"
"Yes!"
Li Yunniang's eyes became brighter and brighter, "Qianqian, I just made a rough calculation. From morning to now, we have earned a total of five hundred taels of silver."
"Among them are 30 bottles of perfume and 10 taels per bottle, a total of 300 taels. The rest are the processing fees for lipstick."
"If... if we add in the share of the two clothing stores, a little less, one hundred taels per family, our harvest today will be seven hundred taels."
Seven hundred taels, for their family in the past, was an astronomical figure, but now, they can earn so much in just one day.
The mental impact on Li Yunniang was really too great.
The whole person was completely immersed in the joy of making money, and he never noticed the change in his daughter's mind.
"Qianqian, there are still people queuing up behind you. Don't delay. I'll call another one in."
Now, how can she think about putting makeup on others?
When he was hesitating how to refuse, a nanny's voice came from outside the door, "Miss Xia, are you here?"
Xia Qianqian and Li Yunniang looked at each other, then lifted the curtain and walked out.
In front of the stall, there was an old woman standing.
Her hair is all white, but every strand of hair is covered with hair oil, making it flat and smooth.
She looked serious, looked at Xia Qianqian arrogantly, and said coldly: "Miss Xia, my wife is waiting for you in the wing."
Xia Qianqian was slightly surprised.
In the morning, Mrs. E mentioned that she wanted to hear her talk about the process of rescuing people.
That is a promise, but it may also be a fruitless promise.
For example, we often say, next time we meet, I will treat you to dinner.
However, there is no fixed time or place for the next time or day.
It's just an empty promise, it doesn't count.
Who would have thought that with this little effort, E Qiaomei would actually send someone to invite her.
"Please, grandma, lead the way."
Xia Qianqian nodded in agreement and said with a smile: "Ladies and ladies, I'm really sorry, I have to excuse myself for a while."
"Mrs. E asked, if it takes too long, maybe I won't be able to do makeup for everyone today. But..."
She changed her tone and encouraged: "Actually, all ladies and ladies are surrounded by experts in dressing up. I have all these things. If you like, you can ask them to help you paint."
When everyone heard her words, some of them looked unhappy.
