"Madam, the carriage is ready outside. Madam, are you ready?" Zhao Sheng came over to find Hua Qingxue.
"Well, let's go." Hua Qingxue followed Zhao Sheng and walked out without Huan'er and Xi'er.
"Madam, you don't want to bring a girl with you?" Zhao Sheng couldn't help but ask when he saw that she didn't bring Huan'er and Xi'er with her.
"Master Tang Yu didn't bring a servant with him last time, and I'm too embarrassed to take the girl there today." Hua Qingxue got into the car with a smile. She had already met once that day, so she wouldn't be too nervous to see him again.
"Are you still at the same place this time?" Hua Qingxue asked.
"Yes, ma'am, the place hasn't changed."
Hua Qingxue didn't speak anymore, but turned her head and opened the curtain of the window, looking at the busy street outside.
"Madam, it's windy outside, be careful to catch a cold." Upon seeing this, Zhao Sheng quickly lowered the curtain, fearing that she would be caught in the cold by the cool breeze. If she made a mistake, the general would not be able to eat when he came back and walked away.
Hua Qingxue smiled and did not refute anything.
"Mrs. Si Bing is here." The doorman at the door immediately announced Hua Qingxue's carriage.
Hua Qingxue jumped out of the carriage, Zhao Sheng was holding her hand. Compared to last time, Hua Qingxue was calmer.
Hua Qingxue walked in, walked around the rockery, and was greeted by a young man: "Mrs. Si Bing, please come this way. Mr. Tang Yu is waiting for you in the Pearl Hall on the second floor."
Hua Qingxue was a little surprised. It was the same place as before. She remembered that the last time she went there was also the Pearl Hall on the second floor. When she looked up, there was no figure of Tang Yu standing there. She must be sitting there this time. .
But this time she followed the boy up with ease.
"Mrs. Si Bing, please come inside." The boy opened the door for her. In the private room, Tang Yu was sitting on the seat. The table was already filled with food. The aroma was fragrant, which aroused Hua Qingxue's appetite.
When Tang Yu saw Hua Qingxue coming, he stood up and greeted her.
"Mrs. Si Bing is here."
Hua Qingxue cupped her hands and returned the greeting: "Master Yu"
"Come and sit down." Tang Yu pointed to the seat.
Hua Qingxue smiled politely and sat down.
This time Tang Yu still didn't take anyone with him and sat there alone.
"Shall we talk first this time or eat first?" Hua Qingxue asked hesitantly, looking at the table full of food.
"This time we eat first and then talk after eating." Unlike last time, this time Tang Yu chose to eat first and then talk. Hua Qingxue was a little confused. When she raised her eyes and looked over, she saw that behind The reader looked at himself with a smile on his face.
"Then let's eat and talk first." Hua Qingxue agreed cheerfully without the slightest courtesy.
Tang Yu was a little surprised, but smiled and picked up his chopsticks.
"Today's dish is a new product from Sifang Pavilion that has not yet been launched. Madam, you can try it and give some opinions to Sifang Pavilion." Tang Yu specially introduced the dishes before eating.
"Okay." Hua Qingxue looked at the food on the table. The color was very attractive and the smell was delicious. It didn't look so luxurious. On the contrary, it had a kind of beauty that made people enjoy it. Hua Qingxue chose it first. A vegetarian dish was put into her mouth. The bamboo shoots were crisp and refreshing, without any greasy feeling, but it gave her a sweet taste.
"These meals taste very good. It can be seen that the cooks are very attentive and artistic." Hua Qingxue's evaluation was very pertinent.
Tang Yu smiled: "As long as Madam likes it."
Zhao Sheng on the side seemed to think that Mr. Tang Yu in front of him was a bit... trying to pry the corner of the wall, and there was no trace of inquiry in his eyes when he looked at him.
Tang Yu noticed the probing gaze and glanced over.
When Zhao Sheng saw this, he immediately withdrew his gaze and concentrated on Hua Qingxue's side, not looking at him anymore.
After finishing the meal, Hua Qingxue started to get to the point: "I heard from shopkeeper Zhao that there were some problems with our batch of goods."
"Yes." Tang Yu nodded.
"What's the problem?" Hua Qingxue asked nervously. The bubble soap has not had any problems so far.
"Madam, the quality of that batch of goods is far different from the previous ones, so today I asked madam to come over to discuss the specific reasons. I don't know if there was a problem with the production." Tang Yu answered seriously, and he asked Hua Qingxue He had heard that if there was a quality problem today, he must come and confirm with her first.
Hua Qingxue frowned upon hearing this and looked at each other. Zhao Sheng was a little surprised when he heard that the making process of this bubble soap was supervised by his wife herself, so how could there be quality problems.
She lowered her head and pondered for a while, then raised her eyes to look at Tang Yu: "Master Yu, have you brought samples of this batch of bubble soap?"
"Yes, Madam, please take a look." Tang Yu handed her a piece of beautifully packaged bubble soap.
After Zhao Sheng took it for her, he quickly unpacked it to find out.
"Madam, this bubble soap..." Zhao Sheng frowned after reading it, and without saying anything else, presented the bubble soap to Hua Qingxue.
Hua Qingxue took the bubble soap in her hand and couldn't help but frowned. There was something wrong with this piece of bubble soap!
"Master Yu, are you sure this batch of goods was shipped from us?" Hua Qingxue stared at him with a hint of seriousness on her face. She needed to confirm.
"Yes, madam." Tang Yu nodded and told her the answer.
"As for the quality issue, I will check exactly where the problem occurred when I get back. As for Mr. Yu's loss, shopkeeper Zhao will be responsible for it." Hua Qingxue looked serious and avoided the areas where she was not good at.
"Okay." Tang Yu had a smile on his face.
After the discussion was over, Tang Yu respectfully sent her to the door of the restaurant and personally watched her get into the carriage.
"Thank you for seeing me off." Hua Qingxue said goodbye to Tang Yu in the carriage.
Tang Yu nodded and watched Hua Qingxue's carriage leave.
"Sir, it's cold outside. You'd better go inside." Tang Yu's personal servant stood aside, holding a shawl in his hand and draping it on him.
There was a hint of complexity in Tang Yu's eyes, he paused, and then went back.
Hua Qingxue sat in the carriage with a solemn expression.
"Madam, what should we do?" Zhao Sheng looked serious at the side. The carriage moved very steadily and slowly, and the wheels left a rut on the snow-covered road.
"Steward Zhao, who is responsible for transporting the goods?" Hua Qingxue leaned on the side of the carriage, holding the heater in her hand.
"He is a young and strong young man. I saw that he was serious about his work, so he stayed to deliver the goods." Zhao Sheng frowned and said, but after thinking about it, he suddenly understood what Hua Qingxue meant, "Mrs. …”
"I personally supervised the production of that batch of goods, so there will be no flaws in the production. The only thing that can make people suspicious is the transportation process." Hua Qingxue lowered her head and muttered, but she couldn't figure it out. What is the purpose of this pairing
"Does the madam doubt him?"
"No, everyone who comes into contact with the goods during transportation is a subject of suspicion." Hua Qingxue's eyes darkened. She did not expect that someone would tamper with her goods.
Zhao Sheng was thoughtful after listening.
"I'll leave this matter to you to investigate. I feel more at ease while you handle the matter." Hua Qingxue looked at him.
"Okay, madam." After all, he was also responsible for the problem with that batch of goods. It was a great thing that the lady didn't blame him.
Seemingly sensing what Zhao Sheng was thinking, Hua Qingxue looked at him: "Butler Zhao, don't blame yourself too much. The problem with this batch of goods is beyond your control. Take the time to investigate the whole matter."
A warm current flowed through Zhao Sheng's heart, and his eyes were filled with emotion when he looked at Hua Qingxue.
The carriage stopped at the entrance of the courtyard, and Zhao Sheng helped her get out of the carriage.
"Then Madam, I will go back first." Zhao Sheng stood beside the carriage and did not go in.
"Wait a minute, I've asked Huan'er and Xi'er to make the down jackets. You can take them first." Hua Qingxue thought of the down jackets she had made in the past few days.
Zhao Sheng's eyes lit up: "Okay, madam."
Zhao Sheng put a large number of down jackets into the carriage and couldn't help but praise Hua Qingxue in his heart.
Hua Qingxue was also a little embarrassed, but it was just a necessary piece of cold-resistant clothing in the modern winter. It was not as magical as they said.
…
In the military camp in Panshui, Fu Tingye was in a good mood after receiving the letter from Zhao Sheng.
Colleagues around him all looked at him with unclear meaning.
Seeing this, Qin Laowu smiled and explained, "I'm afraid the general has received a letter from his wife."
After saying this, the people around him also understood something and laughed. However, since the general had his wife, he became much gentler.
Is this talking about a man in love
Fu Tingye opened the letter in his hand and looked at what Zhao Sheng wrote about how much Hua Qingxue missed him, and she even thought about tea and food.
Seeing this, the general was angry!
He didn't even eat anymore. He didn't know whether people were iron rice or steel. How could he be so hungry if he didn't eat even one meal
When Qin Laowu came in, he saw the angry face of his general: "General, what's wrong?"
"I'm not madam yet. Women have too many things to do. They just miss me when they miss me. What's the matter with not eating?" Fu Tingye slapped his hand on the table with a trace of anger on his face.
Hey, why doesn't he sound angry? It sounds like... a show of affection.
Bowl after bowl of dog food came at him, catching him off guard and filling his arms with it.
"Ahem," looking at Qin Laowu's ugly face, he put away the letter in his hand, coughed, and put on a serious expression on his face, "Did you come here to report any military intelligence?"
Fu Tingye looked at him with a trace of inquiry in his eyes.
Qin Laowu thought of the purpose of coming, and immediately retracted the expression on his face, and gave a serious military salute.
"General, your guess is correct. Master Liu is indeed in the Liao military camp." Qin Laowu told Fu Tingye the news that Tongtong had been brought back.
After hearing this, Fu Tingye frowned and pondered.
He originally thought that the blacksmith Master Liu would be killed, but he did not expect that he would be taken to the military camp by the Liao army to make weapons.
"General, with Master Liu, it will not be difficult to copy Zhentian Lei." Qin Laowu said with a serious face. This is not a good thing for their army.
