A carriage stopped at the door of Dieyi Zhai, and Wen Xichi and the boy got out of the carriage.
Everyone who knew him was respectful and stepped aside slowly. The women secretly looked at his handsome face with shyness. In this store that mainly sells women's accessories, a man like Wen Xichi is very conspicuous. , not to mention his elegant and handsome appearance.
"Who is this? He looks very majestic." Someone he didn't recognize asked in a low voice.
"Does Xiao Wenxiang know?" he replied in a low voice with knowledge.
"This is... Xiao Wenxiang? The most valued Xiao Wenxiang by the Emperor?" The person who asked before couldn't help but screamed. He knew Xiao Wenxiang at a glance, "This is the person who was born in the Number One Scholar and is the Prime Minister's Mansion." Young Master, is the young Wen Xiang who is also the Prime Minister now?"
"Isn't that right? Since the old Prime Minister Wen retired from office, the younger Prime Minister Wen has entered the cabinet." The person who answered nodded repeatedly and lowered his voice and said, "The younger Prime Minister Wen is not only good at writing, but also very dignified in his actions. He is better than the other prime minister." The Korean prime minister is more able to convince hundreds of officials and is a better literary prime minister than his father."
"So awesome!" The speaker was amazed.
"Of course it's great." The person who answered seemed to be talking about himself, raising his head very proudly.
"I heard that Xiao Wenxiang hasn't married yet?" The person who asked the question looked around and saw that no one noticed him, so he lowered his voice and asked.
"Yes, Xiao Wenxiang is not married yet!" The person who answered affirmed, "Because of this, I heard that Mrs. Wenxiang is so anxious that she holds large and small banquets more than ten times a year, but Xiao Wenxiang doesn't. Everyone I have taken a fancy to says that they are not to my liking, and I don’t know what kind of deity can make Xiao Wenxiang like him.”
Regarding this matter, it is really not a secret in the capital. The little Wen Xiang is already nearly 30 years old, but he is still alone, which also makes all the ladies in the boudoir worried. And with such a promising person, who wouldn’t want to get married
But it happened that this one didn't like anyone, and everyone who heard about Mrs. Wen's popularity didn't want to care about him.
"Why did the young Wen Xiang come here? Doesn't he still have a wife?" The idler asked curiously.
"Little Wenxiang is most filial. Mrs. Wenxiang likes the things in Dieyi Zhai the most. Naturally, she will come more often."
Amidst everyone's chatter, Wen Xichi had already entered Dieyi Zhai. Aunt Dong had already received the news and came out with a smile. She would salute when she saw Wen Xichi.
Wen Xichi smiled slightly, waved his hand to signal her to excuse herself, and then walked into the store.
This shop is now under the name of the Xingguo Hou Mansion, which means that Shao Yuanhao's private property is still managed by Aunt Dong, but now the account books are sent to the Xingguo Hou Mansion.
"Are there any new buckles?" Wen Xichi asked casually as he walked to the second floor, with Aunt Dong accompanying him.
"There are some, new ones. Would you like to choose some, sir?" Aunt Dong nodded.
"Send it over and let me take a look!" Wen Xichi said gently.
He went up to the second floor and walked skillfully to a private room on the side. He had already decided on this private room. When he came over, he would definitely sit here for a while and pick something for Mrs. Wen Xiang.
Seeing the gentle and extraordinary Wen Xichi walking by, the ladies who were selected upstairs were very shy. Some of them really came to choose clothes, while others came to see him secretly on purpose.
A young lady was holding a piece of material and heard a voice beside her. When she turned around, she accidentally stepped on the foot of the maid behind her and screamed.
He made a sound, his hands fluttered, and he was about to fall on Wen Xichi. Wen Xichi quickly stepped back and watched the charming young lady fall in front of him.
This time, it fell hard and made a "swell" sound on the wooden floor.
After a moment of silence upstairs, low, mocking laughter could be heard from everywhere. Everyone could tell that this young lady fell on Wen Xichi deliberately, but this lady was not a kindhearted lady, so she actually Looking at this charming lady like this, she fell down in front of him with her arms stretched out.
The young lady's face turned red and she burst into tears.
When the maid saw that it was not good, she hurriedly threw down the materials in her hands, picked up her young lady, helped her downstairs with a blushing face, and hurriedly left. At this time, she had no shame to stay any longer.
After they left, there was another burst of laughter upstairs.
This kind of thing is really not uncommon. Almost every once in a while, a young lady will cause something like this or that. Some people even come over to watch the fun, especially when this little literary prime minister comes over.
Sure enough, another young lady was a little too conceited. This little literary prime minister probably didn't have the slightest bit of compassion from the inside out, so how could he reach out to help her.
"Master Wen, please!" Aunt Dong stood at the door of the private room to greet the guests.
Wen Xichi nodded, without hesitation this time, and strode into the private room. His handsome eyebrows furrowed, a little displeased. He really didn't want to have anything to do with these delicate and fragile ladies.
No matter how good-tempered he is, he will be very annoyed if he comes here for a while.
I brought a large plate with lace and embroidery and placed it on the table. It looked as bright as clouds. The exquisite lace and embroidery were the favorite things of women in the boudoir.
At the moment, Wen Xichi has great patience, carefully checking and selecting one by one. If someone sees this little Wenxiang, he is afraid that such a gentle person should not do what he did to the fallen woman just now. Things to turn a blind eye to.
Wen Xichi picked slowly, but no matter how slow he was, there was always a time when he picked late. He looked at the time and actually picked about two hours later. Aunt Dong stood aside, still smiling and with a great attitude.
She knew that when Xiao Wen came over, he would take so long to pick someone. If she didn't know the inside story, she would definitely think that Xiao Wen was really interested in her mother.
But what about her who knows the inside story? All I can say is that some things cannot be accomplished just by thinking about them.
"That's it!" Wen Xichi put down the things he picked, clapped his hands and said, "Shopkeeper Dong, let's do the math1"
"Yes, Mr. Wen!" Aunt Dong smiled and stepped back, asking the waiter to take out all of them and forget about it.
When he walked to the door, he closed the door of the private room for Wen Xichi, lest those girls who were determined not to give up would create another enchantress. The young Wen Xiang seemed to have a gentle attitude, but in fact he was absolutely ruthless. They must be customers in his own shop after all, and he can't let those pretty ladies lose face.
Aunt Dong thought for a while and felt that it would be better to stand at the top of the stairs and take a look.
The private room was very quiet, and just now Aunt Dong had someone bring tea and cakes inside.
A beautifully dressed young lady brought two maids upstairs. After taking a look, they landed on Aunt Dong. A maid standing behind her stepped forward and waved to Aunt Dong. Aunt Dong hurriedly Walked over: "Are you the shopkeeper of the store?"
The young lady asked after looking her up and down.
"It's the little one!" Aunt Dong nodded.
"I
We ladies are tired from walking. Would you like to sit in this private room? "The maid on the side looks smart at first glance, but she is a bit over-the-top and seems a bit unseemly.
"I'm really sorry, there is already someone in this private room!" Aunt Dong explained with a wry smile. This kind of thing actually happens from time to time, and she can deal with it fairly well.
"Our lady is really tired. If that doesn't work, we can share a seat." The maid rolled her eyes and said.
"I'm really sorry, there is an adult inside." Aunt Dong said with a troubled face.
It means being a man.
"This... how about this? Please invite this gentleman to come out, and our lady will go in and sit down. If it doesn't work, our lady will tell him herself!" The maid looked behind Aunt Dong, eager to give it a try.
A blush appeared on the young lady's face, and she lowered her head shyly, but she didn't say anything bad. In fact, she was willing, as long as she talked to the person and let him pay attention to her.
"I'm afraid this is not good!" Aunt Dong shook her head and refused with difficulty. This young lady's attack was much stronger than the others, and it was difficult for her to deal with it for a while.
"There's nothing wrong with that, so let's do it!" the maid said, reaching out to pull Aunt Dong. Aunt Dong didn't resist, but the maid really dared to come to the door. She staggered and almost fell down.
Another maid had already led the young lady with a red face and a handkerchief to the private room door and knocked on the private room door.
Aunt Dong sighed in her heart. She was afraid that someone would disturb Xiao Wenxiang, but someone would bump into him so blindly. She couldn't handle the matter now.
He simply stepped back to the side and made way.
There was no sound inside the door, and the maid knocked impatiently again. This time, footsteps finally came from inside, and the boy who opened the door looked cold.
"What's the matter?" The boy looked up at the maid and asked.
"Can you discuss with your master and let our lady rest for a while? Our lady is really too tired to walk!" the maid said with a smile, leaning her head in to see clearly who was inside.
The boy pushed the maid out unceremoniously, and stepped forward to block the door, blocking the outside view: "Miss, I'm really sorry, our lord has reserved this place for our wife. Choose clothes and accessories. If you are tired, Miss, you can go to the private room next to you."
"But...but there are no private rooms here!" The group blushed, feeling aggrieved and sad.
In fact, there really are no private rooms anymore. When Wen Xichi came to the door just now, there were three private rooms. When Wen Xichi sat down inside, the other ladies who followed him immediately occupied the other rooms.
Not really at the moment.
"Miss, you'd better go and squeeze in with the other ladies. At least we are all women, so it's easier for us to do things." The young man said with a dull face, as if he didn't see the young lady almost crying with embarrassment, and then in front of everyone With his eyes on him, he turned around and entered the door, and the door in his hand hit him hard.
Keep everyone out.
Extremely determined attitude.
The maid who was leaning in the front almost touched her nose, and was so frightened that she stepped back several times. When she saw that the door was closed just like that, the maid put her hands on her waist in anger, and stepped forward to knock on the door again. Wen Xiang The madam has already agreed, how can this little literary minister treat her young lady like this!
