Hou Men's Pampering: Splendid Little Doctor Girl

Chapter 186 Shop
The person who came to greet her was a woman in Tsing Yi, about forty years old, with a pleasant smile on her face. When she heard Yuma Yu's intention, she immediately smiled until her eyes narrowed into a line.

After exchanging greetings with Nanny Yu, he took Fang Dongqiao to the nearest shop to have a look.

The surname of the wire-wiring person, Yazi, is a man from the capital with a good reputation in Yazi. Both the wealthy family and the wives of the officials take good care of her business. Generally, those who are looking for servants and maidservants at home, or buying Zhuangzi, houses, and fields all look for this person. Such as aunt.

Fang Dongqiao heard from Nanny Yu that this aunt Ru was also a poor person. She was originally the eldest maid of our lady. Later, the lady mercifully sent her to slavery and gave her to a shopkeeper surnamed Liu, who gave her back Her 100 taels of dowry silver should have lived a good life.

However, the good times didn't last long, who knew that she met someone who was not good, and married a scumbag man, the shopkeeper Liu's mother was mean and ungrateful, and Mrs. Ru only gave birth to a daughter after three years of entering the house, so she treated Mrs. Ru on weekdays. He either beat her or scolded her, and even contrived to defraud her of 100 taels of dowry silver.

After Madam Ru was cheated out of all the money, she was divorced by shopkeeper Liu in the name of having no children. Madam Ru was kicked out of the house together with her daughter.

The actual situation is that, because shopkeeper Liu is good-looking and handsome, he climbed up to a daughter of a rich family, so he took the dowry silver of the aunt as a dowry gift to the other party, and was afraid that the daughter born to the aunt would hinder him. For the future, even the daughter is gone, let the aunt take away, and kicked out of the house without giving a penny.

After Fang Dongqiao heard this, she sympathized and couldn't help asking Nanny Yu why she didn't report it to the government under such circumstances, after all, it was the dowry money of Ru Da Niang.

Nanny Yu told Fang Dongqiao that shopkeeper Liu's newly married wife was related to the local county magistrate. How could Mrs. Ru sue shopkeeper Liu?

However, this Ru aunt is also stubborn, she took her daughter all the way to the capital, begged along the way, and then arrived in the capital like this, because their mother and daughter were pitiful, they were called by a man in the capital called He Auntie's kind-hearted people took him in, and helped Aunt Ru find a job, and followed Aunt He into the human teeth business.

For the sake of her daughter, that Ru aunt is willing to endure any hardship. She didn't take many jobs at the beginning, but gradually, as time passed, she gradually became familiar with the housekeepers, nurses and wives of the rich families. .

Because of her good reputation, she was recognized by the big family, and she took on a lot of jobs, and Auntie Ru established a firm foothold in the capital. Gradually, her business became better and better, surpassing Aunt He who took her. Yes, but it’s just that Aunt Ru is a person who knows how to repay her kindness, and Aunt He will share in any good deeds, in order to thank Aunt He for taking care of her back then.

Fang Dongqiao listened to Mammy Yu detailing her past experience like a aunt, but smiled and joked with Mammy.

"Mommy is really kind-hearted, and this is my family's green radish. Right now, mommy introduced business to Mrs. Ru, but she sent kindness again."

"Miss, this old slave would never dare to make fun of the young lady's money. Don't worry, young lady, this old slave's sympathy is all sympathy. In terms of this price, the one who should bargain is still to be bargained. The old slave will not give it away for nothing. People's money."

When Nanny Yu heard what Fang Dongqiao said, there was no panic on her face.

After getting along with her for a while, she also knows her young lady's temperament and doesn't violate the bottom line. In general, the young lady turns a blind eye and closes one eye, and doesn't care about anything.

"That's right. Of course, my lady's money will not be given away in vain. I'm very relieved when the nanny is doing business." Fang Dongqiao smiled, and followed in the footsteps of Mrs. Ru into the gate of a shop.

The location of these two shops is in a prosperous area, the area is not big, but the asking price is extremely high. The price of the two shops is 8000 taels of silver. The price tag that the price opened.

Fang Dongqiao's wandering around the capital these days was not for nothing. When she went shopping, she would ask the maids occasionally to inquire about the approximate prices of the shops on the various streets.

Of course, there is Rong Chaoliang, a budget-conscious businessman, and Fang Dongqiao knows the approximate prices of the shops in these areas, so Mrs. Dang Ru paid 8000 taels of silver to these two shops without saying anything, just thinking The price is slightly higher.

"Auntie, there are two shops here, one is Jewelry Pavilion and the other is Silk and Satin Shop. The price of the shop is around 7000 taels. Why is the price of these two shops 1000 taels higher?"

Fang Dongqiao felt that since she was someone Mammy Yu could trust, and that Madam Ru started off like she did back then, she should cherish the reputation she had accumulated and would not easily make fun of her reputation.

After hearing what Fang Dongqiao said, Mrs. Naru didn't panic, she spoke slowly.

"Miss, you are right. The price of the Jewelry Pavilion and the Silk and Satin Shop on the side is indeed only 7000 taels, and the price of these two shops and the house behind them is 8000 taels. That's because the owner of the shop is eager to transfer , it was sold at a low price, as usual, even if these two shops cost 1 taels of silver, there are still people rushing for it."

"What's the reason?" Fang Dongqiao asked curiously.

"The feng shui of these two shops is very good. If Miss buys this shop, the God of Wealth will surely take care of her, and the money will flow in." Aunt Ru whispered to Fang Dongqiao.

"Since that's the case, why is the owner of this shop so eager to transfer it? Could it be that someone died in this shop?"

In ancient times, it was estimated that there was only one reason why the house that could have been sold at a higher price was eagerly sold at a low price. If it wasn't for this reason, Fang Dongqiao couldn't think of other reasons.

When Nanny Yu heard what Fang Dongqiao said, she hurriedly said: "Mother Ru, you have to tell Miss honestly, you and I are old acquaintances too, you can't lie to my lady and harm me."

"Nurse Yu, I wouldn't dare to lie to your lady. There is no such thing, really no. There has never been a dead person in this shop. I can guarantee that, with my reputation as a child, there will never be such a thing. "Auntie Ru hurriedly explained.

"Since that's the case, what's the reason?" Fang Dongqiao asked with a frown.

"Miss, it's okay to tell you this matter, but don't let it out. It's just that the second young master of Zheng Guogong's mansion has taken a fancy to Wu Mingzhu, the daughter of shopkeeper Wu. Neither Wu Mingzhu nor shopkeeper Wu is willing to submit. The second young master sent people to smash the store every day, so the father and daughter could not keep the store open, so they had to sell the store, and the father and daughter planned to go back to the countryside to avoid the limelight, and they would not go back to the capital again."

When Auntie Ru mentioned this, she actually thought of her own experience. She sympathized with the father and daughter of shopkeeper Wu, so she was the first to recommend this place when a customer came to the door.

"Then what kind of business is this shop?" Fang Dongqiao asked again.

"This shop used to sell spices. This shopkeeper Wu has a great skill in perfumery, and so does his daughter. After receiving the true instruction from shopkeeper Wu, the perfumery skills of the father and daughter are well-known in this area, but It's a pity to provoke Zheng Guogong's mansion, but there is a daughter who is a concubine in the palace, and there is a third prince and a second princess, who are very favored by the emperor. sighed.

"In this way, the father and daughter have also suffered unreasonable disasters. This shopkeeper Wu is rare. If it is an ordinary father of a daughter, he would have given his daughter to the second son of Zheng Guogong's mansion. There is no need to retreat like this. So is Wu Mingzhu, she is a rare transparent person, she looks like a pretty girl."

Fang Dongqiao had never met shopkeeper Wu's father and daughter, but he felt a little fond of them.

"How about it, Madam Yu, this shop looks good, and I'm very satisfied. Since the location is good and the feng shui is good, it's rare to have such a good sign. If the asking price is higher, it will be higher. Let's make it like this."

After Fang Dongqiao finished looking at the shop, she stopped looking any further. The next thing was to ask Nanny Yu and Aunt Ru to negotiate with shopkeeper Wu.

However, she told Nanny Yu not to hurry back to the countryside, as she still needed the help of shopkeeper Wu and his daughter, so she asked Nanny Yu to make proper arrangements for the father and daughter of shopkeeper Wu. , do not give birth to trouble.

Nanny Yu obeyed Fang Dongqiao's orders and followed Mrs. Ru to shopkeeper Wu to do follow-up matters.

In this way, Fang Dongqiao took a good look at the shop, and came out with Qingluo. It was a rare holiday, and after finally coming out, Fang Dongqiao was not in a hurry to go back home, and took Qingluo for a leisurely stroll on the bustling street.

First, I went to a jewelry shop. The jewelry here was exquisitely crafted. The jade pendants, jade rings, and pendants were made of high-quality materials. Fang Dongqiao thought that next month would be the 12th birthday of his fourth brother Fang Jingtai, so he wanted to give him Buy a gift and prepare it, so that I can give Fang Jingtai a surprise when the time comes.

"Shopkeeper, can you make orders here?"

"Of course it is possible. As long as we have the blueprint of the jewelry, our jewelry pavilion will naturally have a way to order it for the lady." The shopkeeper on the jewelry cabinet cabinet greeted Fang Dongqiao with a smile.

"So, can I borrow the four treasures of the study from the shopkeeper?" Fang Dongqiao asked with a smile.

Seeing Fang Dongqiao's innocent smile at a young age, the shopkeeper felt a little fond of her, so he asked the people below to prepare the Four Treasures of the Study for Fang Dongqiao.

Fang Dongqiao draws quickly with a brush, outlines the lines, and soon a very interesting Q-version picture of eating food for the birthday celebrations of the twelve zodiac animals appears in the shopkeeper's eyes.

"Shopkeeper, I'll order this, a set of twelve, small pendants."

When the shopkeeper saw this picture, his eyes were like lightning, emitting green light.

"I don't know what kind of jade the lady wants to use for carving?"

"Well, the shopkeeper must know more than this lady. The shopkeeper can use which kind of jade is suitable for carving." Fang Dongqiao smiled, as if he believed in the shopkeeper very much.
