Chapter 517 Three people with complicated relationship
"It turns out to be shopkeeper Lin. Why do you have time to come to our place today?"
Su Jiaojiao quickly looked away from Fu Gao and Mo Ying, and then looked at Shopkeeper Lin.
Shopkeeper Lin first greeted Su Jiaojiao respectfully, and then introduced the identities of Fu Gao and Mo Ying to Su Jiaojiao.
"It turns out it's Boss Fu's mother and Miss Mo..."
Su Jiaojiao said hello to them and asked her maid to fetch the most expensive rouge and gouache.
She introduced the two of them, "These rouges and gouache are developed by us based on the skin conditions of women of different ages..."
"You two are female customers who have come from afar. You must try our face cream and gouache. If you have any comments after using them, you are welcome to put them forward at any time."
Although Fu Gao was wealthy, he could not change his habit of taking advantage of others.
Seeing Su Jiaojiao delivering things as soon as she came up, she lost the arrogant aura she had when she walked in.
When she glanced at the counter next to her and saw the prices of various rouges and gouache, she completely forgot about the purpose of coming in.
"Are you familiar with Ming'er?" Fu Gao asked.
Su Jiaojiao nodded, "That's natural. When doing business with each other, there's no reason for unfamiliarity."
"And we are not only doing business with each other, we also have cooperation in Jinming Tower."
"Do you have... cooperation upstairs at Jin Ming?"
Mrs. Fu Gao looked at Shopkeeper Lin, who nodded.
"That's it, madam. The chicken, duck and fish we use in Jinming Building are all provided by Boss Su."
"Is there such a thing?" Mrs. Fu Gao was confused by Fu Ming's business methods.
The other party is obviously trying to steal business, so why does Fu Ming still want to cooperate with them?
She didn't think about this problem until she was helped into the carriage.
In the end, shopkeeper Lin explained to them on the carriage.
"Madam, the jade-faced agar-agar rouge gouache is really good. This is something that the young master is very impressed by."
"When Jade Face Agar first opened, we also bought their products and asked our craftsmen to study them. Their powder contains many precious medicinal materials. Even if we wanted to learn it, we couldn't."
"Why can't you learn it? Don't you know what medicinal materials are in it?"
"Madam, we know the medicinal ingredients, but no one can guess the proportions of the medicinal ingredients."
Shopkeeper Lin explained, "Once there is a problem with the ratio, we will have wasted the medicinal materials and will not get good beauty and beauty effects..."
"So, the young master admires the jade-faced agar very much."
"Shopkeeper Lin, I heard what you said, that thing that Boss Su gave me..."
Mrs. Fu Gao looked at the set of azure rouge and gouache in the brocade box.
Mo Ying also has a set, but the color is light pink.
"Madam, these two sets of rouge and gouache are worth thousands of gold!"
"A thousand pieces of gold?" Mrs. Fu Gao was stunned, "But I just looked at the ones on the counter, and they didn't even have a hundred taels!"
"Madam, these two sets of rouge and gouache are different from the ones on the counter. What you and Miss Mo are holding are the jade-faced agar-agar presented to the palace. They are the best of the best."
"Oh my God!" Fu Gao said, "I have grown up so big, but I have never used the gouache presented to the palace..."
Shopkeeper Lin smiled and said, "Madam, don't you already have it?"
"You are right!" Mrs. Fu Gao nodded, "I never thought that Boss Su could be so capable at such a young age. He is in charge of a huge jade-faced agar, and he is so generous with his actions. What a strange woman!"
"She is indeed a strange woman," Shopkeeper Lin nodded, "That's why the young master admires her very much. Although his peach blossoms are being squeezed out by her, he still wants to cooperate with her in other projects..."
Mo Ying had been listening quietly beside her. She was holding the brocade box containing the powder, and her heart was filled with waves.
As expected, the capital city is full of crouching tigers, hidden dragons, and such a woman can be in charge of a facade. This has never been seen in Nanjun.
I don't know why, but Mo Ying felt a little envious in his heart.
As Su Jiaojiao was doing business independently, she had thought in the past that just because she was a woman, she could only watch her brother who was a few years younger than her run around running the family business day after day.
But she could only stay at home obediently, waiting to become a tool for family marriage, and then go to her husband's house to support her husband and raise her children.
Just as Mo Ying was immersed in the shock that Su Jiaojiao had brought to her, the carriage also arrived at Jinming Tower under the command of Shopkeeper Lin.
"Madam, Miss Mo, Jinminglou has arrived. A fine banquet has been prepared in the building..."
"Mrs. Fu, Shopkeeper Lin," Mo Ying politely declined, "I came to Beijing to visit relatives. Since I have sent my wife there, we have to leave."
"Miss Mo, don't you want to sit in Jinming Tower anymore?" Mrs. Fu Gao asked her to stay.
Mo Ying shook his head, "No, I still have to visit my cousin, Mrs. Fu, let's say goodbye."
"Okay." Mrs. Fu Gao said goodbye to her and got out of the car.
"Madam," after getting off the carriage, shopkeeper Lin and Mrs. Fu Gao watched Mo Ying's carriage leave, "are you just going to let Miss Mo go?"
Others don't know that Shopkeeper Lin is Fu Ming's confidant, so how could they not know why Madam tricked Mo Ying into coming to Beijing?
"Let's go," said Fu Gao, "she will be back in a while."
After speaking, she proudly raised the purse in her hand.
"Madam, what is this?"
Fu Gaoshi smiled, "I just stole Mo Ying's purse when she wasn't paying attention."
"Madam? You..."
"Don't worry, nothing will go wrong. Although her cousin aunt is not at home, we have shown her around Ming'er's property. They also have a carriage. They will have nowhere to go in a while, so they will come back naturally.
Already."
After saying that, she turned around and entered Jinming Building. Before, her son had written letters to tell her how good Jinming Building was, but today she had the opportunity to come and take a look in person.
Shopkeeper Lin had no choice but to follow in.
As Fu Gao predicted, Mo Ying was rejected at his cousin's aunt's house.
It wasn't that her cousin didn't welcome her, but that the weather was too hot. Her cousin and her family had gone to the countryside to escape the summer heat, and there was no one in the house at all.
"Miss, what's going on?"
After asking the neighbors, Xiaoyu, the personal girl, came back very surprised.
"Didn't my cousin ask us to come? Why isn't she at home yet?"
"I don't know either!" Mo Ying shook his head.
She also didn't expect that traveling thousands of miles to visit relatives for her mother would end up like this.
"Miss, what should we do?"
Xiaoyu looked at the sky and saw that it was already noon and they hadn't eaten yet.
If I had known this was the case, I might as well have listened to Mrs. Fu and had something to eat at Jinminglou.
"Let's find an inn and settle down first. Tomorrow we'll go to the countryside to look for my cousin. She always comes. It's appropriate to meet her before leaving."
Who knew that the master and servant were kicked out by the innkeepers just after they entered the inn?
The reason was that Mo Ying's wallet was missing and the guests had no money. How could the inn let them stay in vain?
"Shopkeeper, please let us stay here first, and tomorrow we will..." Xiaoyu still wanted to plead, but the shopkeeper had someone push them out without any explanation.
Mo Ying staggered and fell into a solid embrace.
Xiaoyu fell to the ground and hurriedly came to Mo Ying's side regardless of her own pain.
"Miss, you..."
"Who are you? Look how dirty you are, how could you touch our young lady!"
