Chapter 436 Talking about business
“Your young master?” Honglian frowned, and shook her head after a moment, “I don’t recognize your young master, so please don’t obey.”
长Although Zhoufucheng is now stable, because it is at the border, the residents are mixed, and Honglian has experienced many things since childhood, so she is very wary of this kind of thing.
“Miss Honglian, don’t worry or be afraid. There are many people around this tea house. If something really happens, everyone will know about it with a shout.”
The boy’s smile did not diminish. , "My young master just wants to invite Lady Honglian to come up to discuss business. The reason why he wants to invite Lady Honglian to come up and talk is just because there are people coming and going on the street, and there is some noise and disturbance."
Indeed, this teahouse is also a time-honored restaurant and is located on the main street. There are many shops around it and there are people coming and going on the street, so it is considered safe.
And the other party wants to discuss business...
"Is it about Xia Ji's business?" Honglian confirmed.
"Exactly." The boy nodded affirmatively.
Hearing this, Honglian breathed a sigh of relief.
Xia Kee food stalls are now found all over the streets and alleys of Cheung Chau Fucheng. They are very popular because of their good taste and wide variety of food. Many people who have joined the franchise have made huge profits, so many people want to join Xia Kee. .
When she followed Xia Mingyue, she often saw people coming to inquire about her, and there were many beggars.
Since the person who wants to talk about business now is a young master, he is probably not a poor person who needs to make a living on the street. Presumably, he wants to talk about a bigger business with Lady Xia?
After all, Madam Xia came to Changzhou Fucheng from Jinqiu County to do bigger business with Guanshi Fu.
As for the other party did not go directly to find Mrs. Xia, but stopped her on the street to ask, it was probably because her family was well off and she didn’t know much about Xia Ji’s business, so she wanted to ask about Xia Ji first. Is the business going as he imagined?
If you don't want to cooperate after a rough understanding, you can avoid the embarrassing situation.
After Guessing, Honglian nodded, "Okay, I'll go up with you."
It would be fine if we don't cooperate with Xia Ji on business. If we can really facilitate a big deal in the future, The business was not in vain, so she stayed with Madam Xia and was taken care of by her for many days.
Hearing this, the young man felt relieved and hurriedly bowed, "Red Lotus Lady, follow me."
After that, the young man turned around and led the way.
Honglian followed him into the teahouse, followed the steps next to the door, went up to the second floor, and reached the window seat.
At this time, Cui Wendong was waiting at the table. When he saw Honglian coming, he smiled and nodded, "Ms. Honglian, please sit down."
Honglian had never met Cui Wendong before, and saw that she was well-dressed. , looking like a young master from a rich family, he was busy and blessed, "I have seen the young master. My servant is of low status. It is better to stand and talk to the young master. I don't know how to call the young master?"
"My surname is Cui." Cui Wendong He smiled and looked Honglian up and down, "Ms. Honglian behaves appropriately, knows how to advance and retreat, and knows how to measure. She is indeed good. It's a pity that such a person only wants to be a maidservant for others. It is really a pity."
"Young Master Cui is so ridiculous that Hong Lian is too embarrassed to deserve it." Hong Lian lowered her head, "I just heard that Mr. Cui wants to discuss business. I wonder what Mr. Cui's thoughts and plans are about Xia Ji's business?"< br>
"Xia Ji's business is not in a hurry. I have a business that I would like to discuss with Lady Honglian." Cui Wendong said with a smile.
Talk about business with her...
?
Honglian was immediately stunned, "What do Mr. Cui mean by these words?"
"Honglian is so beautiful and talented, yet she has become a servile servant of others. It's such a pity." Cui Wendong smiled, "How about letting me help a bunch of Lady Red Lotus, and let Lady Red Lotus become a master with slaves to serve me?"
"Master Cui's kindness is appreciated by me." Hong Lian's expression turned cold.
“Don’t get me wrong, Madam Red Lotus, I am not asking Madam Honglian to be interested in me.” Cui Wendong explained.
Honglian pursed her lips, "Then..."
"Deputy Commander Lu has made many military exploits in the army and has a high official position. He is also favored by Commander Anxiang. The future is limitless. If Lady Honglian can win the favor of Deputy Commander Lu and become a concubine, she will definitely be very popular in the future."
Cui Wendong said, "If Lady Honglian is more ambitious and gives birth to a son and a half, she will have hope for the rest of her life and won't have to worry about anything."
Honglian was stunned. After being startled for a moment, he raised his feet to leave.
Qingsong immediately blocked the door, and Cui Wendong continued to persuade, "This matter is indeed a bit sudden for Lady Honglian, but it would be better for Lady Honglian to think about it carefully."
"The background of Lady Red Lotus is like this. No matter how well behaved she is, she is a vixen in the eyes of others. They will not think that Lady Red Lotus is He is a serious person.”
“Lu Qiyan was young and full of vitality. He often returned home to live in the same courtyard as Lady Honglian. Over time, even if Lady Honglian did nothing, she would be afraid. Rumors will continue in the eyes of others, and Xia Mingyue will probably hate Lady Honglian so much that she will be kicked out. "
"If such a day comes, Lady Honglian will really suffer misfortune for no reason and become infamous..."
"No!" Honglian immediately retorted loudly, "Those who are clean will themselves be cleansed, and Lady Xia I absolutely believe in my character!”
Ms. Xia took pity on her and helped her, which gradually gave her confidence.
For her, Lady Xia is the rising sun that rises every day, fiery and radiant.
Such a person will never be deceived by others, nor will he follow what others say!
"Character?" Cui Wendong sneered, "The so-called character is a conclusion drawn based on past actions. With your background and appearance, what kind of character do you want? As for what you think Xia Mingyue believes in you... ..."
"Red Lotus Lady has gone through a lot. Didn't the nuns who taught you never tell you that the most unreliable thing in the world is the so-called belief, and the most untestable thing is the human heart? "
"In many cases, it is better to put your life in your own hands. Madam Honglian, think about it, is this true?"
Hearing this, Honglian suddenly felt a little confused. Stunned.
The most reliable thing in this world is belief, and the least tested thing is the human heart.
This statement is true.
When they were in captivity, not everyone was able to get out smoothly, so many people did not hesitate to frame and harm others in order to gain the favor of their grandma.
Even if you have achieved academic success and are chosen by a noble person, you will try your best to make yourself stand out. At that time, the usual deep love between sisters has disappeared without a trace. .
The human heart is the last thing that should be exposed to the sun.
When personal interests are not involved, it is all good for you and me, but when personal interests are involved, they will do anything.
Madam Xia is still friendly and kind to her now. If one day rumors really start to spread, will Madam Xia really be able to sit still...
