"Lu Fu, please... Shopkeeper Xue come in!" Mrs. Fang said calmly.
Lu Fu glanced at Xue Poye fiercely, waved his hand, and said coldly: "Please!"
Pushing the door open, you will see a small flower hall. A disguised lady is sitting on a chair, elegant and noble, wearing a gold ornament and a jade pendant. Although she is very cold, she is quite pretty.
Xue Poye could see clearly that this beautiful woman was Mrs. Fang. Compared with her arrogant and domineering appearance that day, she was much calmer and more beautiful today.
Behind her, there were two maids waiting on her. She was also holding a teacup and sipping tea, looking extremely leisurely.
When Xue Poye came in, she glanced out of the corner of her eyes, and there was a strange look in her eyes, and she said calmly: "Are you from Lan Yuexuan?"
Xue Poye touched his nose and said, "Second Grandma doesn't invite us to sit down either?"
"You haven't greeted our second grandma yet? How dare you be so presumptuous?" Lu Fu shouted from behind.
Xue Poye sneered: "Steward Lu, didn't you take off enough clothes?"
Before Lu Fu could speak, Mrs. Fang had already waved her hand and said calmly: "Lu Fu, you go down first!"
Lu Fu gave Xue Poye a vicious look and stepped back unwillingly.
Mrs. Fang sipped her tea gently and said, "I heard that you, Lan Yuexuan, beat up people from our Lu family?"
Xue Poye said leisurely: "I can't bear it anymore. There is no need to bear it anymore."
"What do you mean by this?" Mrs. Fang put down the tea cup in her hand and stared at Xue Poye. There was no hostility in her eyes, but an extremely obscure emotion.
"You, Butler Lu, took his servants and carried big sticks to my Lan Yuexuan. He dared to leave my guests without any distinction and made arrogant remarks. As for who made the first move, I think Madam should go check it out.
!" Xue Poye said calmly: "Although the Lu family is a wealthy family, they cannot bully others!"
Mrs. Fang's eyes moved and she smiled and said, "Please sit down!"
This was the first time Xue Poye saw her smile, and it seemed to be quite charming. If he hadn't seen her evil deeds that day, he would not have been able to believe that she was that domineering and savage shrew.
Sitting down on the guest chair on the left, Xue Poye was about to speak when he heard a respectful voice from outside the door: "Second Grandma, please hand over the order to the Xikou Medicine Store. Please take a look at it!"
Mrs. Fang frowned and said coldly: "What time is it now? Didn't I say that the bill for the day needs to be paid at noon the next day?"
The voice outside was a little panicked, and the voice was trembling slightly: "Now...it's time to announce the time!"
Shenshi is also dusk.
Mrs. Fang coughed, and a maid behind her went out and brought a list and presented it to Mrs. Fang respectfully.
Mrs. Fang looked at it slightly, and immediately sneered: "Tianshan Xuemin has allocated thirteen branches to the west entrance, but there are only twelve branches in the account. One is missing. What's going on!" She handed the list to the maid behind her and ordered: "
Submit the bill to the accountant, check the appearance of the medicinal materials, and check the number of Tianshan snow grits. If there is an error, ask the shopkeeper at the west entrance why!"
She was acting resolutely and neatly at this time, which was not as calm as before.
Xue Poye sighed. The more this happened, the less he could understand this woman.
Arrogant and domineering? Calm and elegant? Smart and capable?
She seems to be a combination of contradictions.
The maid took the order and left. Mrs. Fang raised her voice and said, "Is this Lao Zhang at the west entrance?"
Someone outside said respectfully: "Yes!"
Mrs. Fang thought for a moment and said coldly: "Let Lao Zhang rest for a few days first. The second shopkeeper of the medicine store will step in and tell you that if you don't pay the account at noon, you don't have to pay it. You can just pack up and leave."
people."
The voice outside was a little cold, and after a moment of silence, he finally said, "Yes! What else does Second Grandma have to say?"
Mrs. Fang said coldly: "Tell Lao Zhang to prepare the money for secretly selling Tianshan snow grits, and the accounting office will send someone to get it!"
After finishing the explanation, Mrs. Fang took a sip from the tea cup and said calmly: "It depends on the owner to beat the dog. I asked them to bring the money to discuss business. No matter what, you should not do it!"
"Everyone respects me a foot, and I respect a person a foot!" Xue Poye touched his nose and said calmly: "But if someone offends me, I will offend him. Just like the lady was resting, a few wild dogs suddenly came and barked, and the lady only
Are you afraid it will also be very uncomfortable?”
Mrs. Fang looked at Xue Poye, frowned and asked: "You really don't want to sell Lan Yuexuan? I can offer a higher price, as long as you sell it, the price is easy to negotiate."
Xue Poye waved his hand, shook his head and said: "Madam, I came here today not to discuss the business of Lan Yuexuan." After a pause, he chuckled and said: "The second young master encountered difficulties that day, and I came to help the second young master.
In gratitude, I promised to give you a reward of four hundred taels of silver. Although I insisted on declining, the second young master showed his kindness and I could not refuse. I came here today to fulfill the promise of the second young master and collect the reward of four hundred taels of silver.
!”
Mrs. Fang didn't even look surprised. This thing seemed to be something she expected. She was very calm and said calmly: "Four hundred taels? He only rewarded four hundred taels? It's a bit stingy."
Her expression was calm, but Xue Poye noticed that there was a trace of resentment and loneliness in her eyes.
Wu Lachi had been holding back and said nothing. At this time, he couldn't help but said: "Hurry up and get the money!"
Mrs. Fang glanced at Wu Lachi and sneered: "There are still barbarians in Shopkeeper Xue's restaurant?"
She was obviously very prejudiced against the Beihu people and showed dissatisfaction.
Xue Poye said calmly: "This is my sworn friend. He admires the luxury of Lu Mansion, so he came with me to take a look." Although this is an excuse, today I really saw the luxurious style of Lu Mansion, and it can be regarded as this.
A great reward from the trip.
After saying that, Xue Poye took out the debt note written by the second young master from his pocket. It clearly stated that he owed four hundred taels of silver, and his signature and handprints were complete.
Mrs. Fang glanced at it casually, with a contemptuous smile on her lips: "Our second young master has made a fortune. In the past, the people who came to ask for debts were only ten or twenty taels, but now they ask for hundreds of taels. It seems that shopkeeper Xue has helped a lot.
ah!"
"It's indeed not small!" Xue Poye said confidently: "It can be regarded as saving his life!"
That's not bad. The second young master was suffering from hunger and cold that night. If he hadn't brought a cloth to cover himself to keep warm, he would have froze to death in the wilderness.
Mrs. Fang stared at Xue Poye for a long time, and Xue Poye was covered in hair from the scorching gaze.
"Since it was the second young master who signed the document and Shopkeeper Xue came to the door in person, there is nothing wrong with it!" Mrs. Fang stood up slowly, glanced at Xue Poye, and said softly: "Shopkeeper Xue is coming with me, and
I’ll just go get the silver!”
Xue Poye didn't expect Mrs. Fang to be so easy to talk to, but thinking about it, the Lu family has tens of millions of wealth, and a mere four hundred taels is nothing. Since there is money, of course there is nothing to be embarrassed about. He stood up and said with a smile: "Thank you so much, Madam.
Got it!"
Wu Lachi also stood up and was about to go with him when Mrs. Fang said calmly: "The warehouse is such an important place, it's better for shopkeeper Xue to come with me!" He ordered: "Serve this guest tea!"
Wu Lachi showed an angry look, Xue Poye patted his shoulder and said with a smile: "Brother Wu, please wait a moment, I will be back soon!"
Wu Lachi nodded and said fiercely to Mrs. Fang: "Don't play tricks, or I will burn your Lu Mansion!"
Mrs. Fang sneered, looking very disdainful. She moved lightly and pushed the door open. Xue Poye touched her nose and followed closely.dd
