late night song

Chapter 117
One day later, with Xiao Ling's help, Juan Niang secretly met with the boss of Poshanju.

"Boss Meng, nice to meet you!" Juan Niang was very polite. To show her solemnity, she specially sent a thousand-year-old agarwood as a congratulatory gift.

"You don't have to be so polite. My surname is Meng Minggu. If Madam Juan doesn't mind, just call me by my given name." Meng Gu has red lips and white teeth. He is gentle and elegant. He is a rare and handsome man.

"That's a lot of exposure." Juan Niang straightened her hair. Although she was dressed plainly and elegantly today, she was also carefully dressed.

She had made sufficient preparations in advance. She had found out that Meng Gu had a cold temperament and disliked luxury. In order to suit his fancy and leave a good impression, she spent a lot of time dressing up.

"That's not as good as this. Runfeng is my cousin. You can just call me Runfeng." Meng Gu also thought carefully and smiled at her. This game of attack and defense really began.

"Okay, Runfeng."

Juan Niang, who had exposed herself and had met countless men, felt her cheeks feel slightly hot. She was startled and then overflowed with joy. She had not met such a powerful opponent for a long time.

"In this dispute between the three families, Juan Niang has a chance of winning." Meng Gu raised his hand and poured a cup of good Pu'er for Juan Niang.

"If there is a chance of winning, there is no need to bother Runfeng today." Juan Niang said with a smile, her eyes brimming with autumn.

"I will accept the gift from Madam Juan, and please take care of me in the future." Meng Gu raised his glass and replaced the wine with tea to express the conclusion of the alliance.

"To each other." The two of them understood each other tacitly, and did not want to make it too clear. After all, they would be friends or foes from now on, and they still needed the other party to show decent sincerity.

After Juan Niang left, Meng Gu was sipping tea by himself, while his follower Qing Deng carefully opened the door and entered.

"My boss, Xiao Ling has set up a sign in Suo Xing Palace to see and practice medicine."

"I know." Meng Gu snorted.

"My boss, do we really want to cooperate with Suo Xing Palace? What about Fuyun Palace?" the attendant asked again.

"Don't worry, since both ends are going to be beaten, let's see who reveals the tail first." Meng Gu narrowed his eyes slightly, and the smile that spread on the corners of his lips was meaningful.

The next day, Juan Niang went to Fuyun Palace to meet with the madam Zhang Qilan. In the eyes of others, this was just a formality, but the three scheming people knew it clearly in their hearts. They exchanged pleasantries but did not commit to each other. , but they are all waiting for the opportunity to knock down the opponent.

What they are familiar with is not only the bloody storm behind the plan, but also the calm and calm situation before it is the most critical game. Mistakes and mistakes can often determine the final outcome.

Since Juan Niang re-introduced the specialty business according to everyone's ideas, and Xiao Ling used the Hualou venue to set up a sign for practicing medicine, the business of Suo Xing Palace has flourished again, and is on par with Poshanju.

Xiao Ling's reputation for his superb medical skills spread quickly in Chenglu Street. Whether it was the girls on the street or business travelers, anyone who had a headache or a fever or an old injury or illness would come to seek medical advice as soon as possible. , coupled with his tall and handsome image, with a jade tree facing the wind, someone once jokingly called him "the fragrance of the apricot forest rises, it turns out to be Xiao Langgu."

From this, the girls affectionately called him "Xiao Lang".

Gu Yuchu found it very funny. Every time the brightly dressed girls called Xiao Ling Xiaolang, he always had a stern face and no expression at all. But even so, the originally cold white man on Chenglu Street That day, the threshold of the wing where he practiced medicine was also broken through.

"That's the end of today's consultation."

As the sun set, seeing that there were no urgent patients today, Xiao Ling issued an order to expel guests.

The girls dispersed angrily, pushing and shoving and almost getting angry and arguing.Gu Yuchu walked in with his arms in hand, and when he saw the jealous scene, he smacked his lips unconsciously.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, Xiao Lang is so blessed that he doesn't know how to be blessed. There are so many beautiful girls, but they don't know how to be charming."

Xiao Ling glanced at her and said nothing. When it came to incomprehensible amorous feelings, it was her Gu Yuchu who had the nerve to come over and tease him.

"Xiao Lang, are you angry?!" Gu Yuchu smiled even more and poked his shoulder with his finger.Unexpectedly, Xiao Ling put one hand around her waist, his movements ambiguous but his expression still cold.

"I was wrong."

Gu Yuchu was used to the Qi frame routine, and he knew that men who kept their expressions were the hardest to mess with, so it was better to stop and admit defeat.

Xiao Ling then smiled. Although he was reluctant to give up, he quickly let go of the intimate restraint.

"Xiao Lang." Gu Yuchu truly thought that Xiao Ling was his elder brother, but he didn't feel embarrassed at all. He straightened his clothes and called him teasingly.

"Speak carefully." Xiao Ling's tone was as usual, but it always made people shudder.

"Brother Xiao. Haha."

Gu Yuchu was also very good at buying goods.

"Didn't we say we wanted to cooperate with Poshanju, but a month has passed and there has been no movement."

"Are you really stupid or are you just pretending?" Xiao Ling did not respond directly, but asked rhetorically.

"Oh, of course I know that any two of the three families may form an alliance. Poshanju is just waiting to see who is stretched first, and the other two parties will naturally reach a consensus. But aren't I anxious? These three families are just waiting and watching. Everything is safe and sound, and you can’t see any signs of it.”

"It's not like you to be so restless."

Gu Yuchu bit her lip and glanced down at her toes. If she said that her previous calmness was all about enduring and being forced by the situation, I don't know if he would believe it.

"I was just pretending before. Oh, let's not talk about it anymore. You have an idea. Don't hide it."

"There's no rush, just wait a moment." Xiao Ling was still holding back.

"mean!"

Gu Yuchu slumped down on the consultation stool, held his chin and said angrily.

"Okay, the red light has been hung. Go out and say hello. I want to sort out today's medical records."

"Xiao Ling, you want to chase me away?" Gu Yuchu was very unconvinced and called him by his name.

"Otherwise, why don't you stay here to undress me, serve me tea and water, and rub your shoulders and back?" Xiao Ling stopped writing and looked up at her, his eyes filled with anticipation.

"It's a beautiful thought." Gu Yuchu rolled his eyes at him, shook his head and left.

About seven or eight days later, there was another man holding three silk handkerchiefs and going to Suo Xing Palace to redeem 50 taels of silver. At this time, Gu Yuchu realized that Juan Niang wanted to make her stunt more popular and attract more people to pay attention to the jade pendant. The picture of bamboo shoots in spring spread such news to the outside world.

I heard that someone said on the black market that the spring bamboo shoot handkerchief of Suo Xing Palace was sold for as high as 25 taels. For a while, both regular customers and bystanders in the market were talking about Suo Xing Palace's move after dinner, and this ordinary person was talking about it. Tong's embroidery patterns have become popular.

For this, Gu Yuchu was grateful from the bottom of her heart. Although she had suspected Suoxing Palace's ulterior motives when she first came to Chenglu Street, especially after knowing that Ling Ziyu was the person behind the scenes, in the final analysis, she also wanted to take advantage of it. After many trials, they still We truly became friends with each other.

No matter what happened in the future, at the moment, this mutual sympathy without mentioning a word made her feel particularly stable and warm.
