Chapter 227 Friends
Pomegranate complained that this girl was good-looking but had no quality at all. At the same time, she also roughly understood that this girl was from the Liu family.
However, the Liu family is very leafy and complicated. She doesn’t know which house this person belongs to, but it is definitely not from Dong Liu’s house. As far as she knows, the eldest daughter of Dong Liu’s family is sixteen this year. They were already engaged, and the second daughter and the younger daughter were still young, and the one in front of her looked about the same age as her.
As long as she is not the daughter of Dong Liu’s family, it doesn’t matter who she is.
“Oh.”
She replied lightly, since the other party was full of hostility, she had no reason to put a hot face on a cold butt, and she was not mean.
Besides, this person is not right. She is relying on Liu Dong’s family? Hey, how did you know that Liu Dong’s family didn’t rely on her? They are cooperating for win-win and mutual benefit. There are so many village girls in the world, why don’t we see Dong Liu’s family cooperating with others? But I don’t need to explain it to someone who has nothing to do with it.
Miss Liu Si didn’t expect that the other party would know that she was a girl from the Liu family and would dare to give her a cold face. Shouldn’t she immediately start to fawn over her with fear and sincerity?
I don’t know why the third uncle fell in love with this unruly country girl and wanted to do business with her.
She didn’t understand what was going on outside, but she overheard her father and mother talking. They mentioned that the third uncle was now gaining momentum, which made the Liu family that was maintaining stability take another big step forward, and could vaguely surpass the richest man in the Jin Dynasty. It's trending.
The Liu family has always been suppressed by the Wen family, and they are always just a little bit behind. Being able to surpass the Wen family would be a great joy for the entire Liu family.
Therefore, Third Uncle has always been praised by his grandfather. According to this trend, in the long run, the position of the next head of the Liu family will inevitably fall to Third Uncle. After all, the Liu family has always been like this One rule is that the head of the family only appoints virtuous people, not senior ones.
Even though she doesn’t want to admit it, she also knows that her third uncle is better at business than her father, and there are more people in the clan who think highly of him. They are all just profit-seeking things!
She is helpless to these people, why can't they deal with a little village girl?
Miss Liu Si frowned angrily, raised her hand and slapped her across the face.
She hit her without any warning, without saying a word, and Pomegranate almost didn't react. After all, how could she expect that she would strike without saying hello? Isn't it like this on TV? You should be reminded before you hit me, this girl is going to hit you, hurry up and get ready!
Feeling the strong wind next to her ears, Shiliu subconsciously turned sideways, narrowly avoiding the falling slap.
Seeing that she dared to hide, Miss Liu Si got even madder. She opened her mouth and asked the maid to hold down the pomegranate and beat her.
Fu Dong immediately stopped Miss Liu Si’s maid, preventing her from getting close to her own girl.
Miss Liu Si saw that the maids were unreliable, so she simply pushed them away and went to deal with them herself.
"Isn't this the fourth sister? What are you doing here? Playing monkey tricks?"
Suddenly, a voice sounded, and a girl in an aqua dress came walking with her maid, looking at Miss Liu Si glared angrily, Covering the corner of her mouth lightly, she smiled and said: "Look at Fourth Sister, she really looks like a monkey performer!"
When she was interrupted like this, Miss Liu's anger was immediately diverted, and she turned around to face her. Go, "Who do you think is playing monkey?" What a joke? I am also your fourth sister, and you are arrogant. If I don’t tell my grandmother, you will be punished by kneeling in the ancestral hall.”
The girl laughed again, “In comparison, I think fourth sister. Playing monkey tricks outside can make you even more famous It’s only right for the mother to be angry.”
“You!” Miss Liu Si was very angry, but she couldn’t help her sharp-tongued cousin. She didn’t want to lose face by staying here, so she could only Throwing up his sleeves, he left angrily.
When she left, Miss Liu Qi nodded at Shiliu and said, "My sister is incompetent. If she offends the girl in any way, please don't get along with her." Shiliu saw that this girl was also about the same age, but she was very talkative. It makes people feel like a spring breeze. Sure enough, people can't be compared with others.
"My surname is Li and my given name is Pomegranate. Thank you very much, Miss Liu, for helping me to rescue you just now. If you don't mind, how about I invite Miss Liu to drink tea with us?"
Then Miss Liu Qi didn't refuse after hearing this. She sat down across from her in a generous manner and said, "I know you. The Liu Dong family you are doing business with is my third uncle." , I am the seventh among the sisters in my family, and my only name is Xi. I am fourteen this year, if you don’t mind, you can call me Sister Xi.”
This tone is full of sympathy. Shiliu couldn't help but smile at your intention of making friends. Many friends lead to many paths, and she also likes to make friends. At least, this girl Liu Qi makes her feel good.
"I'm thirteen, younger than you, Sister Xi!"
Liu Xi smiled, "Sister Pomegranate."
Soon, the refreshments were served. Although it was Pomegranate as a treat, but This teahouse is the property of the Liu family , Liu Xi was naturally more familiar with it, and couldn't help but introduce it to Pomegranate. After talking about tea and snacks, Liu Xi couldn't help but pause, "I forgot, this salted egg yolk crispy rice cake that is very popular in the teahouse now is Sister Pomegranate." your recipe , and this meat floss——
Speaking of which, I have long been curious about you and want to get to know you. I like to eat these meat floss and dried meat tightly. We are similar in age, how can you do it? Such delicious food Come on, I really admire you!”
Liu Xi was obviously very talkative and spoke very sincerely. Shiliu couldn’t help but have a great time chatting with her. It was getting late, and when they parted from the teahouse, There are still some unfinished ideas.
Liu Xi couldn't help but ask Shiliu to make an appointment with her next time she comes to Fucheng. Then she will be the host and take Shiliu to visit Fucheng.
Pomegranate smiled and agreed, this friend is not bad.
After saying goodbye, Shiliu and Fudong got on the mule cart and returned to Tongwanzhai. In a small teahouse in the backyard, Shiliu sat down and heard Jiang Bing report what he had inquired about.
The last time they came to Fucheng, they encountered a massive search for a thief by the government, but the city gates were not under martial law. Later they heard that the thief had not been caught yet, but just yesterday, they heard that the thief had been arrested. So Shiliu asked Jiang Bing to find out what the thief was caught for.
In the end, it was the strong smell of medicine and hiding in the barn for a night that made her curious. Everyone was arrested anyway, so there was no point in asking.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Bing shook his head, "I didn't ask about it."
Pomegranate can also understand that they have no foundation in Fucheng, so it's normal that they can't ask about it. I didn't hear anyone talking about it in the teahouse just now. Things, talking about such things should be a source of conversation, but no one talks about it, which is really strange.
It took a month to catch the person, and it was even more strange that the person didn't escape the city for a month.
Pomegranate shook her head, feeling that everything was strange, but she couldn't figure it out, so she left it behind and didn't think about it anymore, so as not to worry about it.
But what Shiliu didn’t expect was that on the day she returned home, when she was passing through a small town and resting at a roadside tea stall, she would smell the familiar smell of medicine.
