Side Story, Hu Yulin Jie 9
Xuemei sighed softly and walked over with the teapot.
Xuemei, who had a clear mind, could not stand the attitude of the female shopkeeper. What kind of person was she? She was not even sure of her own identity. No matter what their wife was, she was the general’s wife, the imperial wife personally conferred by the Emperor.
So what if she was chastity for the rest of her life?
How dare she look down on Madam? Madam should embarrass her.
Fortunately, Madam was not a soft bun.
She lifted the teapot and poured out the boiling water.
The female shopkeeper looked at the tea leaves that were rolled into thin threads and knew that this was good tea. Which woman did not love beauty? Her status was still quite important. The female shopkeeper was about to reach out to take it, but she saw that the boiling water had already overflowed the teacup. She reached out and was scalded.
“All!”
The female shopkeeper was shocked and quickly retracted her hand. Her expression was very ugly.
Hu Yu covered her mouth and sneered.” Aiya, why are you so careless? Don’t you know that when the wine is full, you’ll respect the person and when the tea is full, you’ll send the guest off?”
How could he not know about such etiquette? Not to mention rich families, even ordinary people’s families knew this principle.
The confidence in the female shopkeeper’s heart was completely gone. She hadn’t even opened her mouth yet, but the General’s wife had already given her a hard time. The female shopkeeper looked at Hu Yu. Hu Yu’s smile was bright and moving, and his eyes were like glazed pearls. This smile was clearly shrewd.
The female shopkeeper’s heart trembled. She quickly stood up and smiled apologetically.
Hu Yu clicked his tongue in his heart. This was a smart person. He immediately knew that he couldn’t drink tea or sit on a chair. However, this was how it should be. Not everyone was qualified to sit and drink tea in the General’s Estate.
“Shopkeeper Qing Rong, why have you come to my residence?” Hu Yu asked with a smile.
Qing Rong glanced at Hu Yu. Her impression of Hu Yu had changed. She was vexed and made it seem as if she was inferior.
He was not mentally prepared at all, so his aura was suppressed. He spoke as if he was reporting.
Holding his breath, Qing Rong said,” Madam is a straightforward person, so I will be straightforward. This time, the Imperial Concubine wants to ask you for a person. How do you maintain your delicate skin?” Presumably, the woman who made the maintenance cream must be a wonderful person. Such an instant kill, wouldn’t it be a waste of talent to use it just for this young lady? If Furen is willing to hand her over to the Glory Garden, the Imperial Concubine said that she will definitely reward her with a large sum of money.”
Qing Rong lost her first breath, and she was not convinced. She had never suffered a loss at anyone’s hands since she was middle-aged.
Therefore, he directly used the Imperial Concubine to pressure her. How could a General’s wife, who was already dead, be nobler than the Imperial Concubine?
Other than words, she also has such good and delicate skin. It’s useless to use it on you.
Hu Yu laughed on the spot. He sneered disdainfully and said sarcastically,” Shopkeeper Qing Rong, do you think I’m a fool? Who in the capital doesn’t know that your Glory Garden is the leader? Once my Snow Skin Ointment is out, will your Glory Garden still have a place in the capital?” This Furen doesn’t want to earn a lot of money, so why should I let others take advantage of it?”
Hu Yu raised her hand, and a part of her sleeve slid down to her elbow, revealing a fair and tender arm. Her fingers were slender and long. As a woman, anyone who saw them would be jealous.
Qing Rong was infuriated. She took a step back and looked at Hu Yu. She was shocked. How could such a young woman have such an imposing manner? She didn’t even put the Imperial Consort in her eyes. Unknowingly, her imposing manner weakened even more.
“Do I look that easy to bully?” Hu Yu said in disdain. A noble consort wants him, and 1 have to send him over? Since you’ve all come to me, then this Furen will tell you the truth. This road, this Furen will definitely take it. The location of the Glory Garden is very good. If your Imperial Concubine can’t hold on any longer, can you give priority to selling it to me?”
He was angry but not angry.
Qing Rong felt that she was about to die of anger. She was so angry that her expression turned ferocious. She glared at Hu Yu and gritted her teeth.” General’s wife, you have such a big mouth. Aren’t you afraid of offending our Empress?” Do you really think that opening a shop is that easy? If the Empress gave you a clear path and you refuse to take it, then don’t blame the Empress for not showing you mercy. If General Furen reneges now, we can still discuss it properly, but if 1 leave the gates of the General Estate, things will be hard to say. 1 also advise Furen not to refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit.”
If she really angered the Imperial Concubine, who knew how difficult a widow’s life would be?
Qing Rong looked at Hu Yu with a cold smile. If Hu Yu were to wag her tail and beg for mercy now, she would have to humiliate her before she could forgive her.
But Hu Yu’s eyes were wide open, and Qing Rong had already raised his chin.
Hu Yu burst out laughing.
“Hahaha, hahahaha…”
The bell-like laughter made Qing Rong’s arrogant expression stiffen.
Hu Yu bent over and held her stomach. She laughed so hard that tears were flowing out.
Hu Yu had enough of laughing. She waved her hand.” Get lost, get lost. 1 was just about to see how the Imperial Concubine’s punishment looks like.”
Qing Rong’s face was ashen. He could not bear to be humiliated like this. He pointed at Hu Yu with a trembling finger and said angrily,” Since the General’s wife is so ungrateful, I will definitely report this to the Empress. In the future, she will pay a painful price for today’s humiliation. There was clearly a bright path, but she chose not to. When she is down and out in the future, she will definitely regret it every day.”
Qing Rong said angrily, then turned around and walked away.
Hu Yu yawned.
Xuemei came in from outside. She was a little worried.” Madam, will the Imperial Concubine treat you badly? What should we do?”
Hu Yu smiled.” Don’t worry. 1 have my ways. Crying children get candy. This is a small matter.”
I’m too sleepy. I should sleep first.
She had taken the path of high-end custom-made clothes. At least for the past two years, ordinary people could not afford it.
When the product was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, it would slowly turn to interruption. In the end, it would not even let go of ordinary people’s homes. Even if other cosmetic shops were also doing it, they would never be able to close their eyes.
Ouyang Mingzhu and Ouyang Mingyue were the first batch of high-end customers. They would fight their way out and let the others come to beg for them.
What Hu Yu did not expect was that Ning Yu would come again a few days later.
Because he couldn’t enter, he only sent a letter.
Hu Yu read the letter and frowned.
In the letter, Ning Yu said that the Crown Prince wanted to see her and asked her to meet him at Heaven’s Wings Restaurant at noon tomorrow.
Hu Yu burned the letter.
“Madam, you can’t go there. You mustn’t go there,” Xuemei said with anger and disgust.
Hu Yu pursed his lips.” I was really blind back then. How could I have taken a fancy to such a person? Pfft, disgusting thing. Of course I won’t go..”
