Mrs. He immediately smiled away, and even used her elder-like attitude to silently suppress Mi Xiayao's status as an official in the palace.
Mi Xiayao saw through her little thoughts and just sat in the crowd with a smile.
Sometimes I would answer one or two other people's words, and other times I would mostly listen to their conversations.
For example, someone’s girl just got engaged, and someone’s sisters-in-law had misunderstandings and quarrels.
Just when Mi Xiayao felt a little bored and was about to find an excuse to leave, there was a sudden bustle in the front yard.
Chen Xizheng was surrounded by people in the center. She smiled slightly and listened to other people's chatter.
Her state is almost the same as Mi Xiayao's current state of mind sitting in the hall.
I don't know if Chen Xi felt that gaze, and the two of them looked at each other in the air without any hindrance.
Mi Xiayao pursed her lips slightly and raised the corners of her mouth to show her a kind smile.
Chen Xi also smiled and returned.
Here, the lady with a round face returned to the previous topic.
"You probably have nothing to do with Lin Miao on weekdays, right?" she asked.
Hearing the familiar name, Mi Xiayao drew her attention back.
The expressions of several other people changed slightly, and soon they heard someone whispering: "Why are there no contacts? I don't know where my sister-in-law met Lin Miao, and she was coaxed by Lin Miao's mouth to think that she was so valuable.
Similar."
"Are you still encouraging your sister-in-law to raise money for her to open a shop?"
"No! What's our family's condition? Why would we spend money to open a shop for others? It's good if we can live a good life ourselves."
The ladies seemed to be of similar age, and they probably had family backgrounds. It seemed that their husbands were colleagues, and their words suddenly became very speculative.
Mi Xiayao's heart moved slightly.
Since Duan Honglin was dismissed from office, she rarely paid attention to the follow-up. This was the first time she heard news about Lin Miao from others.
She was pricking up her ears to continue listening.
Mrs. He, who was sitting in the main seat, looked at Chen Xi walking towards the hall, and the smile on her face became much lighter.
"Mrs. He is well."
Chen Xi saluted Mrs. He generously, but he did not mention the seniority of his relatives, which shows that the relationship between the two was not necessarily very cordial.
"Is it your mother who asked you to come here?" Mrs. He said in a calm tone.
Chen Xi motioned to the maid behind him to bring the gift up, and said gently: "My little sister is temporarily ill, and my mother can't spare time. Please forgive me, Mrs. He."
Mrs. He responded calmly again, saying only that the Chen family was interested.
Just when she was about to turn her head and ignore this cheap niece, Chen Xi rarely took the initiative and said: "I would like to borrow someone from Mrs. He, and I would like to have a few private conversations with Lady Mi."
Mrs. He frowned, she didn't seem to want to agree to Chen Xi's words.
But Mi Xiayao was a step ahead of her and said: "I have admired Miss Chen's name for a long time in the palace, and I just want to have a few words with Miss Chen."
These two people are talking about this.
Even if Mrs. He didn't give Chen Xi face, she still had to say yes because Mi Xiayao was Pei Xingyuan's "fiancée".
They left the hall one after another, and Chen Xi skillfully led her to the quieter corridor.
"It's really hard to find Miss Mi during this period." Chen Xi broke the silence first and spoke with a smile.
Mi Xiayao responded calmly, "If Miss Chen wants to find me, she can actually go directly to Bieyuan to find me."
"I previously thought that Miss Mi also likes to go to banquets, so I wanted to be more reserved when meeting you... That's all, I can finally meet you today, so I won't beat around the bush."
Chen Xi's eyes were clear and she was already pretty and bright. Those eyes were the clearest and brightest that Mi Xiayao had ever seen.
"That private order of fancy clothes in the capital is your business, right?"
This unexpected content made Mi Xiayao raise her eyebrows slightly, and she looked at Chen Xi with a faint smile and admiration.
Chen Xi didn't need to hear an answer from Mi Xiayao, she had already made up her mind.
He pursed his lips, and his calm demeanor just now became a little embarrassed at this moment.
"Your private customization of Chinese clothing is very special. To be honest, I am very curious about how you operate, so...
Her words hesitated for a moment, and her eyes were a little wandering.
"When we first met, you said we would have tea when you were free. I wonder when Miss Mi will be free?"
That's where everyone's words ended, and Mi Xiayao completely understood what Chen Xi meant at this moment.
The smile on her face gradually deepened, but what she said was quite calm and calm, "If Miss Chen wants to find out how my place works, I think we don't need to waste our time."
She was already tall, and Mi Xiayao had a habit of slightly raising her chin when speaking in an imposing manner.
Mi Xiayao seems to have all the control over the dialogue between the two.
She said in a light tone: "You and I are both business people, and we all understand that time is the most precious for people like us."
The implication is that Chen Xi should think clearly before talking to her.
I would also like to mention Chen Xi, the two of them are actually the same type, regardless of external factors.
Making money by doing business is their original intention.
Chen Xi's expression didn't change much. She seemed to have predicted that Mi Xiayao would say such a thing to remind her.
She met Mi Xiayao's probing gaze openly, "Since Miss Mi has talked about this, it seems that the process of drinking tea will be dispensed with."
Mi Xiayao understood this to mean that Chen Xi was retreating due to the difficulty. Her red lips slightly raised an indifferent smile, and she turned around to leave.
The person behind her stopped her and called Miss Mi.
Then, she spoke very quickly: "Some time ago, I carefully observed Miss Mi's business operations. Yuelailou has a famous brand, and Xiaoyuan Huafu is privately ordered through private channels. You can use the fabric supply.
It’s perfect without any flaws, which is deeply consistent with my philosophy from the beginning of my business.”
Chen Xi described all her actions very rationally and objectively.
This was something she was a little surprised about. She stopped walking even though she was about to walk just now.
She turned back to look at Chen Xi.
Waiting for Chen Xi to continue.
"Since Miss Mi is decisive in doing things, people in business are most afraid of trivial matters. I, Chen Xi, am not that kind of person. Miss Mi must also know my status in the family from other people's mouths.
"My purpose for Miss Mi is very simple. I want to cooperate with Miss Mi, rely on the ready capital in your hands, Miss Mi, and escape from my mother's family."
Mi Xiayao half-squinted her eyes, what she said was too bold.
If it were someone else listening, they would only hear one sentence.
[She wants to use her existing business skills to develop herself]
But Mi Xiayao was none other than Mi Xiayao. She looked deeply at Chen Xi.
