Hua Xiaogu finished trying on the wedding dress, changed into her usual clothes, and walked out of the screen. When she looked up, she realized that Tian Lanqing was missing.
"Where is the young master?" Hua Xiaogu asked the little girl waiting next to him.
The little girl bowed and replied softly: "Manager Hu, I have something to discuss with you. The eldest young master asked me to let you know. He will go over first."
"Oh." Hua Xiaogu nodded, turned around and walked out of the room. She still had Ruyizhai to be busy with, so after trying on the clothes, she had to go out immediately.
In the study, Tian Lanqing frowned and listened to Manager Hu's words: "The goods have been detained and can't enter Beijing?"
Manager Hu nodded, with a look of anxiety on his face: "Exactly! For some reason, the capital has been under martial law since yesterday, and now it is inconvenient to enter and exit. The goods have been detained for three days, and they have been detained for three days.
I've already gone to the people who paid for it, but the people at each checkpoint only accepted the money for the money, but all of them closed their doors."
Tian Lanqing's brows furrowed deeper and deeper, and he exhaled deeply: "Is the waterway still open?"
"The waterway is still open for the time being, but after being unloaded at Linxian Terminal, the goods can only be stranded there."
Tian Lanqing nodded: "I know about this. I'm going to inquire about it. You go back first. If the wine shop can't operate, you can take a break temporarily."
Manager Hu nodded in agreement,
Tian Lanqing has been busy all day, and even at night, she has no time to see Hua Xiaogu again.
All day long, Hua Xiaogu felt a heavy feeling in her chest. She wrapped herself in a small coat and looked out the window at the gloomy weather. The Chinese New Year was only half a month away, but nothing could go wrong.
That night, in the middle of the night, Hua Xiaogu was sleeping soundly. In his hazy sleep, he heard the sound of a bell ringing in a distant place. The sound of the bell was floating and flickering, and it was unclear whether it was real or not.
After ringing for an unknown number of times, it disappeared again. Hua Xiaogu didn't even open his eyes and fell asleep again.
Early the next morning, as soon as Hua Xiaogu got up from bed, he heard that it seemed to be extremely quiet outside.
She yawned, reached out and touched the clothes on the bedside, and put on the clothes with trembling hands and feet.
The house was burning hot and it was not too cold. When the little maids heard the noise at the door, they all brought hot water into the house and helped Hua Xiaogu wash up.
After living here for such a long time, she still wasn't used to the life of being served by others. Hua Xiaogu took the handkerchief from the maid's hand and said as usual: "Jinmei, Lingxiu, you two don't have to wait on me anymore, I'll do it myself."
Jinmei and Lingxiu are two maids sent by Tian Lanqing from him. They are quite old, one is sixteen and the other is seventeen. They are both old people from Tian Mansion and first-class maids.
Jin Meifu Yifu said: "I hope the girl will get used to it soon. The slaves are not in the habit of watching their master do it themselves."
Seeing that Jinmei still insisted, Hua Xiaogu had no choice but to watch her take her small bamboo bucket, scald the small brush with pig bristles in boiling water, dip it in some green salt, pass it to his hand, and let her start
brush teeth.
Halfway through brushing his teeth, Baitao hurried in from outside with tea in hand.
As soon as she came back, she looked unhappy. She stretched out her hand and winked at Jin Mei Lingxiu. The two maids looked at each other and immediately turned back and closed the door.
"Girl! This is not good!" Baitao's face looked a little ugly, and she rushed over and whispered to Hua Xiaogu.
Hua Xiaogu spit out the salty numbness in his mouth, rinsed his mouth with water, and then asked: "What's wrong? Are you in such a hurry?"
