Views:

Yang Mei and Bai Guo waited outside for a long time, but they didn't see the young lady telling them to go back. They had already started to feel suspicious, but when they heard such a loud noise, they hurried in to see what happened.

The scene in front of them shocked them, and they didn't know how to react for a while. The comfrey that was supposed to talk to the young lady in the private room disappeared. , my young lady is pressing on the leader of Haida, supporting his chest with one hand while looking sideways at them.

The lips of the two were a little too red, and the leader of Haida was even more flushed with embarrassment. No matter how you look at this scene, it looks like the evil young man throwing up a girl from a good family to do something wrong!

But what makes people speechless is that the young and promising martial arts leader was thrown down, and the misfortune of wanting to do something wrong is their family's delicate and overbearing lady.

Yangmei and Baiguo looked at this horrifying scene stupidly. When Bai Fuling saw them, and then looked at the blushing and pretending innocent big devil under him, she instantly thought of the misunderstanding they might have had, and couldn't help but become furious, and hurriedly got up He shouted at the two of them: "What are you looking at, you see me falling, won't you come to help me?"

Afraid that the typhoon would be swept away, Bai Guo hurried forward a few steps, pretending not to see the "poor" man on the ground who was first molested and then unlucky enough to be a meat pad, helped Bai Fuling to the side to tidy up her dress and hair, and patted the skirt clean Debris and dust on it.

Hai Pumice also got up from the ground, walked up two steps, looked at Yangmei and then at Bai Fuling, seemed to want to explain, then said after a while: "It's all Haimou's fault, please don't talk about what happened today Go out, Haimou, Haimou will definitely be responsible."

Bai Fuling watched him play with cold eyes, and was furious in her heart, but she dared not refute loudly due to his coercion, so she could only snort coldly and turn her head away.

As a "victim", Yang Mei felt embarrassed when she saw her being so low-key, she stepped forward to salute her and said, "Master Haimeng, you don't need to be polite, it's my lady who is reckless..."

"Which eye of yours saw me being reckless?" Bai Fuling was furious, and she felt even more aggrieved and annoyed when she heard that even her own family members directly accused her like this without asking clearly.

Yang Mei knew that Bai Fuling's temper could not be disobeyed, so she smiled apologetically at Hai Pumice: "Master Hai, please leave first, otherwise it will be inconvenient for people to see."

Haifushi nodded honestly, looked at Bai Fuling for a few more times, said "Farewell" before reluctantly leaving through the window.

After confirming that the person had gone far away, Bai Fuling raised her face and warned, "Don't tell anyone a single word about what happened just now, otherwise all your bonuses for this year will be deducted, do you know?"

When the matter got to the point of deducting their money, the two women dared to say nothing, they looked at each other helplessly, and nodded in agreement.

Yang Mei went out to find someone to clean up, and a rosewood chair was completely scrapped like this. This matter can only be blamed on that Zicao girl. Anyway, martial arts people are occasionally rude.

Bai Guo was born to gossip, and seeing that Yang Mei had also gone out, she sneaked up to Bai Fuling's ear and asked in a low voice, "Miss, why did Miss Zicao become the leader of Haimen? What did you do to the leader of Haimen? Look at you... hehe laugh!"

Bai Fuling said viciously: "He is lustful, and he sneaked in with Zicao halfway! I didn't do anything to him, but he broke the chair for some reason, and I haven't asked him for compensation yet. !"

That rosewood chair is made of high-quality wood and exquisite workmanship, and ordinary people can't afford it at all. It is a complete set with the other three chairs and two tea tables in the private room, and it is really worth a lot of money. Thinking of this, Bai Fuling felt even more resentful It's a little thicker.

"Didn't do anything, why is the leader of Haida blushing? And he was the one who fell when he broke the chair. Miss, why did you run on top of him?" Bai Guo expressed disbelief.

In fact, she clearly saw that Haida's leader's mouth was blushing more suspiciously than her face, and the young lady's lips were not much better. Although she is an unmarried girl with yellow flowers, but there is a loving couple, big brother Bai Shanglu and Yang Mei, and she occasionally bumps into them hugging and kissing in private, her virtue is similar to what I saw today!

Thinking of this, Bai Guo looked at Bai Fuling with an increasingly ambiguous expression. Bai Fuling felt guilty and short of breath when she looked at her, so she shook her off and said, "If I say no, I won't! Ask me to deduct your money!"

Another deduction, Bai Guo finally didn't dare to ask again, and muttered aggrievedly: "I know how to deduct money, it's unreasonable..."

Bai Fuling gave her a sidelong glance, and Bai Guo was so frightened that she completely silenced her voice.

At this time, Yang Mei asked the maid in Linglong Pavilion to clean up the elegant room, and asked Bai Fuling whether to rest in another place or go back to the old mansion of the pavilion. After staying, I immediately decided to go home.

Yang Mei opened the door of the private room and was about to help Bai Fuling go out, when she suddenly saw a maidservant in Tsing Yi and a woman in Linglong Pavilion manager's attire coming out of another private room not far away, she paused, feeling that this The maid was very familiar, as if she had seen it somewhere before, and after careful thought, it was the maid who was next to Xia Xinxin at the previous poetry meeting.

The maid didn't notice Yang Mei, she turned and walked away in a hurry.

Seeing Yangmei blocking the door, Bai Fuling asked strangely, "What's wrong?"

Yang Mei talked about the maid, and then said worriedly: "I see that the housekeeper is holding a box in the building for receiving jewelry from guests. Those who can enter this Linglong Pavilion are definitely not cheap things. Even if you want to send jewelry here for heavy beating, you won't just send a maid, there may be some problems in it."

"You are very careful..." Bai Fuling nodded and said, "You go ask the steward to ask, don't let the maid come here to sell the stolen goods in the name of the master." She only saw Xia Xinxin in Changchun Mountain yesterday, she It's a little strange that the personal servant girl came here alone instead of accompanying her.

When the female steward heard that the new boss had invited her, she came over to say hello in fear, but she didn't expect the new boss to be a girl who had just reached her age and was as beautiful as a fairy, so she was stunned for a while.

Yang Mei asked her name, she called herself Luo Shi, her husband is a craftsman of Linglong Pavilion, and she has been in Linglong Pavilion for three years.

Yang Mei pointed to the box in her hand, and asked with a smile: "Here is the jewelry that the servant girl of the Xia family sent here?"

The stewardess nodded and said, "Yes." She was a little surprised when she revealed the identity of the visitor.

"May I have a look?"

"Naturally, sister-in-law, please take a look." Luo Shi opened the lid neatly, revealing three red gold hairpins inlaid with rubies, emeralds and white jade, two pairs of silk-wrapped red gold bracelets, and a red gold collar. In terms of style, it's not very special, but the material itself is precious. Just these few pieces of jewelry use at least eight or nine taels of pure gold, not to mention the value of the precious stones and white jade on them.

This kind of jewelry is the most convenient for cashing out, and the style is generally not too noticeable. If it falls into a shop such as Linglong Pavilion that focuses on jewelry styles and handcrafts, it is impossible to resell it directly, and most of it will be melted down and remade. Sometimes I can't even check it.

Bai Fuling could see the problem at a glance, and exchanged glances with Yangmei, Yangmei turned her head and asked Luo Shi again: "Does this maid belong to her, or did she send it for the master's house, and she intends to make a new set of jewelry?" , or directly exchange for cash?"

Luo Shi also understood the meaning of their words, and hurriedly said: "The servant girl sent it for her young lady, and it needs to be exchanged for cash, and she has repeatedly asked me to keep the secret for them, and must not reveal it to outsiders. The summer before yesterday Madam and Ms. Xia came to Linglong Pavilion to pick out dowry jewelry. Ms. Xia once told me about this matter in private, and she also gave me a general description of the jewelry to be sent. If not, the little lady would never dare to accept it rashly of."

Bai Fuling thought for a while and said, "Are you familiar with Miss Xia's family?" Otherwise, why would Xia Xinxin ask her to do this in private

Luo Shi replied: "Every time Miss Xia comes to Linglong Pavilion to choose jewelry, the little lady is in charge of reception. After a few years, the little lady has become a familiar face in front of Miss Xia."

"Have you settled the money for these jewelry?" The maid just now didn't look like she was carrying a huge sum of money.

Luo Shi hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and said: "Miss Xia asked the little woman to buy some things for her, and the remaining money will be sent to pick up after two days."

"What are you buying?" Yang Mei interrupted and asked, Xia Xinxin could have sent the housekeeper to do the shopping, so why did she ask a woman who had nothing to do with the Xia family instead

"Miss Xia's entrustment is a private matter. The little lady promised never to disclose it to anyone..."

The implication is that buying and selling jewelry is the business of Linglong Pavilion, and she dare not hide it, but she must keep her promise about the private matters entrusted by the guests, even to her own boss.

Luo Shi knew that saying this would greatly offend Bai Fuling, but she didn't want to break her promise, so she had to lower her head, her hands unconsciously clenched her sleeves, and she was so nervous that her forehead was sweating.

"Miss Xia did not misunderstand the person. Since you have said something first, I will not ask about it. Just pretend that I have never looked for you, and don't mention today's matter to others." Bai Fuling said lightly, not as Luo Shi imagined. angry like that.

As if being pardoned, Luo Shi quickly packed up his things and left.

Only Bai Fuling, Yangmei and Baiguo were left in the private room again, Bai Fuling tilted her head and said with a smile: "The shopkeeper of Linglong Pavilion is not bad, the person I found looks decent."

Bai Guo is not interested in this, she is only interested in gossip: "Is the Xia family's situation really that bad? Are you going to sell jewelry privately for money so soon?"

Yang Mei nodded her forehead and said: "A skinny camel is bigger than a horse. Although Mrs. Xia Ge fell ill, the Xia family is still far from being ruined! Didn't you hear that Mrs. Xia and Miss Xia just arrived in Linglong the day before yesterday?" Come here to pick dowry jewellery, if it is really dilapidated, how can you come here to spread money?"

"It's not that the Xia family's situation is bad, it's that Ms. Xia's situation is bad. It's so simple that I can't figure it out. The most stupid one is Bai Guo!" Bai Fuling took the opportunity to retaliate.
