Chapter 761 Simple Transaction

Liu Yunxiang waited for a while and heard someone going upstairs outside.

"I'll carry a basket for you." This was Zijin's voice.

"No, stay away from me and be careful."

The voice was dull but joyful, and it should be Xie Wenying.

"It's very heavy, right?"

"Not heavy or heavy. A wealthy family built a manor a few years ago. I even went to carry stones, which was even more neat than a group of masters."

Liu Yunxiang shook her head and smiled, knowing if this was once a big girl from the Marquis’s Mansion, a real noble girl from a noble family.

As the words got closer, the curtain in the wing room opened. Xie Wenying came in with a load. When she saw Liu Yunxiang, she was a little stunned, and then she smiled: "Oh, how could there be such a beautiful person in this world? He is really like the fairy concubine in that drama. You are so lucky. My bun is thin and the filling is big. I take a bite of oil and water and it smells good. I have two baskets, hundreds of them. I sell one three cents on weekdays, and one hundred is three hundred cents. You see you bought so many, and I should give you some cheaper, but it’s less than ten or twenty cents, and you don’t look down on it either."

Xie Wenying became more and more excited as she spoke, and looked at Liu Yunxiang with her eyes glowing.

Liu Yunxiang poured a cup of tea and pushed it to the chair opposite, "Miss Xie, let's sit down and have a tea first."

When Xie Wenying heard this title, his face suddenly froze, and his smile immediately closed, and then he stared at Liu Yunxiang.

"Who are you?"

Zi Jin replied: "This is the Princess of Zhenbei."

Xie Wenying was surprised, and her mind changed several times, and then she hurriedly gave a big gift, "It turned out to be the princess of Zhenbei. The private woman was blind. There were a lot of princesses. The private woman did not dare to disturb the princess, so she went out."

As she said that, Xie Wenying quickly carried the shoulder pole and was about to leave immediately.

"This princess has nothing to do with the Jing'an Marquis' Mansion anymore, so the eldest girl doesn't have to rush to clear anything."

"The world is not good, and the private woman has to go down and sell buns."

"I want your two baskets of buns."

"Just something is just a vulgar thing, not worthy of the princess's mouth."

At this time, a thunderstorm suddenly broke out outside, which was very urgent and the room became dark.

"If the big girl didn't sell me these two baskets of buns, she would have to take them home." Liu Yunxiang said.

Xie Wenying stood at the door for a long time, but finally he took a breath and turned into the house. She put two baskets of buns on the ground, then walked to the opposite side of Liu Yunxiang and sat down, picked up the cup of tea, and drank it in one sip.

"I sent it yesterday afternoon, and I started making stuffing after dinner. I got up twice at night to see how much the noodles were delivered. Before dawn, the whole family got up and worked. My son rolled the dough, I made buns, and my husband set the fire. The first pot came out, and I rushed to the market to sell it. The business was not very good today, so I only sold half of it. When I got home, I hurriedly ate a little, and the second pot and the third pot came out, and the family helped to put it in the basket. Before leaving, the sky suddenly became cloudy. I was just shouting below while begging God, begging him to rain later, and wait for me to sell the buns. When I heard that someone wanted to buy both baskets of my buns, I breathed a sigh of relief. I thought I could make some money without losing money today, but I didn't think it was you."

"What's wrong with me?" Liu Yunxiang raised her eyebrows.

"A noble man like you came to buy my buns specifically. It's not because my buns are delicious, right?"

Liu Yunxiang smiled. Xie Wenying was a wise and smart person. She turned around and looked at the rain outside and suddenly remembered something.

"By the way, the calligraphy and paintings your husband asked you to sell are probably soaked, right?"

Xie Wenying frowned, "Are you following me at my house?"

"I did go to your house to find you."

Xie Wenying pursed her lips, "No one bought his calligraphy and paintings at all. I'll take them to the study in front. I can sell them occasionally and change them to some ink."

It's time to talk about the serious matters. Liu Yunxiang told Xie Wenying about Xiao Wu's murder and the current situation.

Xie Wenying frowned, "You want me to beat the Dengwen Drum as the eldest girl of the Marquis of Jing'an."

Liu Yunxiang muttered for a moment, "It should be said that she is the identity of Xiaowu's big sister."

"Ha, let me tell you this. I have long forgotten what this fifth sister looks like, and I don't have a trace of sisterhood. And beating the drum will attract some gaze and break our peaceful life now. Secondly, any kind of injustice, the drum beaters will have to be beaten first, and half of their life will be removed." Speaking of this, Xie Wenying sneered, "I'm crazy? Why should I beat the drum?"

Liu Yunxiang sighed. It was obviously not feasible to use family affection to move Xie Wenying, and this method is a bit too much for people who have experienced the harm of their relatives.

Liu Yunxiang looked at the two baskets of buns again, thought for a while, and said, "Miss, I sincerely buy these two baskets of buns for you. You should say one price, and the other price that makes you think you can beat the drum after weighing the pros and cons."

Leaving family affection, this is a simple deal.

Xie Wenying frowned. She first looked at the heavy rain outside. It was very fast. There was no one on the street. These two baskets of buns must be sold today. She looked at Liu Yunxiang again, with confusion and confusion in her eyes.

"I heard that you had a very terrible quarrel with the Jing'an Marquis Mansion, why did you still want to help the Xie family catch the real murderer?"

Liu Yunxiang felt a little uncomfortable when she thought of Xiaowu, "Xie family is selfish and harmful to others. But Xiaowu grew up with me and left the Xie family with me, but I didn't take good care of her. She suffered so much and finally died of him. I'm sorry for this child, the only thing I can do is to catch the real murderer and bring it to justice."

After hearing this, Xie Wenying thought about it for a while, "But the thirty boards."

"Girl just offer the price."

"My humble body is not worth much money even if I sell it by pound. But the princess obviously can't find anyone else, so she can only find me. Scarcity is precious, let alone people."

Liu Yunxiang lowered her eyes. Xie Wenying needed money too much. She wanted to ask for a big one, but she was afraid that the deal would be ruined.

"Then...that one thousand taels?" Xie Wenying tried to say a number. Seeing that Liu Yunxiang didn't say anything, he hurriedly said, "The princess can bargain, but at most...that's eight hundred taels?"

"Thirty big boards, the big girl only needs one thousand taels?"

Not much is needed. For Xie Wenying, who was once a noble girl from a noble family, earning money by beating a board will be a psychologically humiliating, in addition to physical pain.

Xie Wenying was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly, "I have thick skin and flesh, one thousand taels are enough."

"That's one thousand taels." Liu Yunxiang said,

"Then...we have we decided to negotiate this deal?"

"The negotiation is completed." Liu Yunxiang thought for a while, "But do you want to go back and discuss with your husband?"
