Tantai Heqing only felt that this Xu Jian was really stupid. She told Mrs. Xu's distinguished status just because she wanted Xu Jian to apologize.
As long as Xu Jian said a few humble words, Mrs. Xu would have a step down, and she would be able to deal with it slowly.
What is your identity? It is simply stupid for you to talk about right and wrong in front of this noble lady.
As expected, Mrs. Xu looked very ugly, and the ladder was immediately removed, leaving it hanging in the air unable to go up or down.
Tantai He said coldly: "It must be that you didn't have eyesight and didn't watch the road well. Your breast touched Mrs. Xu's hand, which made Mrs. Xu lose her temper. You didn't apologize to Mrs. Xu quickly."
Xie Li was about to speak when he met Tantai Heqing's glaring gaze. He thought to himself, that's all. He should just repay Miss Tantai's kindness. He acknowledged this injustice and apologized to Mrs. Xu:
"Mrs. Xu, I accidentally touched your hand just now and molested you. I was so nervous that I accidentally hurt your face."
Tantai Heqing had a look of satisfaction on his face, and thought to himself, he finally got the idea, and he's not too stupid. If you don't open your mouth, I won't be able to help you at all.
As expected, Mrs. Xu's face became much better, but she said coldly: "Now that I admit it, it's good, Miss Tantai, what do you think we should do?"
According to Mrs. Xu, Tantai Heqing said so much just to keep himself alive. In this case, just cut off his hands.
Tantai He smiled apologetically and said: "Since it was the little sister who was lax in discipline and caused such a big misunderstanding, it is natural that the little sister should accept the punishment."
Mrs. Xu was stunned when she heard this: "You?"
The thank-you gift on the side heard that it was okay. As the saying goes, one person does the work and the other person bears the responsibility. He is a manly man who can make a woman take the blame and take the punishment. He immediately said sternly: "Miss, it is Xu Jian's fault. How can you do it for me?"
Punishment, Xu Jian accepts punishment."
Tantai He pointed his hand affectionately and scolded coldly: "Go back to the inner room immediately!" Can you afford it? Unless you risk your life.
Xie Li left angrily. Looking at Xu Jian's back, Mrs. Xu felt that this man was a tough guy who would break one of his teeth if he couldn't chew it properly.
Tantai Heqing looked at Mrs. Xu's face and said softly: "The injury is not serious, but it is red and makes people feel distressed."
Mrs. Xu said coldly: "Is this a question of whether to be injured or not? How can I behave as a human being after being beaten and spread out?"
Tantai Heqing smiled and said: "Who dares to speak ill of you, Mrs. Xu? Do you think you have a long life? Besides, no one will believe it if you say it."
Mrs. Xu said coldly: "Don't you just have someone here who dislikes longevity?"
Tantai Heqing smiled and said nothing, stood up and brought a porcelain bottle over, opened it and gently wiped it on Mrs. Xu's face with his own hands, and asked softly: "Mrs. Xu, is it cool and comfortable?"
Mrs. Xu hummed and felt Tantai Heqing's fingers were soft and smooth, making her feel numb.
Tantai He smiled affectionately and said: "This hibiscus ointment can not only remove pain, but when applied morning and night, it can also make the skin smooth and wrinkled, like a girl's."
Mrs. Xu immediately became interested, "Hibiscus ointment, why didn't I know about it before?"
Tantai Heqing said: "This is the secret medicine of the royal family of the Western Regions. Women often apply it. It can resist the damage of the sun and wind and at the same time delay skin aging. I spent a lot of money and managed to get only three bottles."
Tantai Heqing is not a charlatan, what she says is the signature of Xuantanzhai.
Mrs. Xu picked up the porcelain bottle, showed a fond expression, and asked, "How much is this bottle of hibiscus ointment?"
Tantai Heqing smiled and said: "These are marketable and priceless things. They have not been sold. I spent a lot of money to get these three bottles from the merchants in the Western Regions. I originally planned to use them for myself. I thought of returning a favor, so I gave one bottle to Gu.
Madam, I gave one bottle to Madam Zhu, and the remaining one is for my little sister to use."
Mrs. Xu said displeasedly: "Miss Tantai, this is not interesting to you. I am your regular customer anyway, and you are not the first one to care about me."
Tantai Heqing said hurriedly: "Yes, yes, it's my little sister's, why not, if Mrs. Xu doesn't dislike it, I will give this bottle to you as a gift."
Mrs. Xu immediately smiled and said, "Okay, I'll give you as much silver as you want."
Tantai Heqing smiled and said: "When we talk about money, it becomes a business. This is our relationship. Mrs. Xu, just accept it."
It is said that although Mrs. Xu is a dignified wife of an observer, her husband is a womanizer, has numerous wives and concubines in the house, and often goes to brothels to have fun. Although Mrs. Xu is still charming, she is already forty and cannot compare with those
Young girls will naturally be ignored by their husbands.
Later, Mrs. Xu got angry and became free and easy. The husband and wife played each other, the husband played with women, and she, the wife, played with men.
Not long ago, a lady came to chat with me, saying that she saw Mrs. Xu entering the south courtyard and playing with the elephant and rabbits.
Although Tantai Heqing has never been to the South Courtyard, she also knows where the South Courtyard is. All the male officials in the South Courtyard wear men's clothes on the outside and women's clothes on the inside. If there are guests staying overnight, they will take off their outer clothes and reveal their red faces.
Wearing purple underwear while sleeping is no different from women's.
Mrs. Xu nodded and smiled. She smelled the hibiscus ointment and felt a very pleasant fragrance. She asked, "Miss Tantai, is this hibiscus ointment really so effective?"
Tantai Heqing asked: "Mrs. Xu, how do you think my face compares with the previous days?"
Mrs. Xu took a look and couldn't help but exclaimed: "The effect is so obvious!"
Tantai Heqing's complexion and appearance at the moment are naturally incomparable to those of the past few days, but the credit is not due to the hibiscus cream, but to Xie Fu's moisturizing.
Tantai Heqing nodded, and Mrs. Xu accepted it happily: "Miss Tantai, then I will accept this favor from you."
Tantai Heqing suddenly grabbed Mrs. Xu's hand and slapped her fair face, which made Mrs. Xu stunned: "Miss Tantai, what are you doing!"
"Mrs. Xu, as you said that, you forgot about this. It was my little sister who disciplined me. If you are still angry, Mrs. Xu, just hit me to take it out."
Mrs. Xu smiled helplessly: "You are so thoughtful, how can I not give you this face? That's all, you can just watch and punish yourself."
Tantai Heqing quickly saluted: "Then little sister, I would like to thank Mrs. Xu for her magnanimity."
Mrs. Xu put up a battle array and waited for Tantai Heqing to come over, just to save face, and she couldn't swallow it.
Now that I have regained my face and my anger has gone smoothly, I have no intention of arguing about it. If it comes down to justice, she is actually in the wrong, and she is just using her power to bully others.
Mrs. Xu hurriedly helped Tantai Heqing up and said with a smile: "Don't be so polite anymore."
Tantai Heqing smiled and said: "I recently hired a Dongfu costume designer to design some new Dongfu-style products. Mrs. Xu might be interested in taking a look."
Mrs. Xu immediately became interested: "Dongfu, that is a very distant country."
"Then let's go to the inner room and take a look."
Tantai Heqing led the way and introduced: "These new clothes have just been finalized and have not been shown. Mrs. Xu, you are the first to see them."
After saying this, Mrs. Xu was very happy and said with a smile: "What new clothes are they?"
"Leg stockings and stockings."
"Leg socks?" Silk pants, Madam Xu could still imagine, but what are these leg socks? Socks are worn on the feet, so there are no socks that go on the legs.
Tantai He whispered softly: "Mrs. Xu, my little sister hasn't left the palace yet. To put it shamelessly, if Mrs. Xu puts on these stockings, she will be seductive and charming. Master Xu will definitely fall in love with you."
Like crazy."
Mrs. Xu was instantly moved. No matter how she dressed, her beauty could no longer compare with those of those young girls. If she could regain some advantage in style, her middle-aged dilemma would be solved.
Tantai Heqing suddenly saw Xu Jian hiding by the door and eavesdropping, and glared at Xu Jian fiercely, "How dare you show up, are you seeking death?"
Tantai Heqing glared at the thank-you gift and then stepped back.
He didn't want to eavesdrop on anything. The main reason was that Miss Tantai had suffered for him. What he wanted in his mind was that if Miss Tantai was bullied in any way, he would rush out directly without hurting Miss Tantai.
After hearing that after Miss Tantai's painstaking efforts, Mrs. Xu was finally willing to put the matter to rest, she was relieved and at the same time very grateful.
I don't know how long it took, but when I saw Miss Tantai walking in, Xie Li immediately stood up and said, "Miss, where is Mrs. Xu?"
Tantai He said calmly: "Let's go."
Xie Li asked doubtfully: "You just left like that? Didn't the lady suffer any injustice?"
Tantai Heqing smiled softly: "What grievance can I suffer? Mrs. Xu is my friend. Otherwise, if you think you can stand here well now, what grievance will you suffer?"
Xie Li explained: "Mrs. Xu teased me with her hands and feet. I asked her to be more respectful, but she insulted me verbally. In desperation, I hit her."
Tantai Heqing glanced at Xu Jian, and then noticed that Xu Jian was modest and dignified, even more handsome and heroic than Du Ruquan.
Mrs. Xu was used to playing like a aunt and a rabbit, and she thought that Xu Jian was just as easy to get started with. She couldn't help but laugh at the thought of this.
Xie Li was slightly unhappy: "Miss, why are you laughing?"
Tantai Heqing said nonchalantly: "Then you have really suffered a great injustice."
Xie Li immediately sensed Tantai Heqing's sarcasm and said proudly: "Miss, to tell you the truth, Xu Jian is also a well-established Jinshi, and making a living here is just a temporary expedient."
After listening to Xu Jian's words, Tantai Heqing still smiled calmly: "Oh, you are actually a well-known Jinshi, but do you know the identity of Mrs. Xu?"
"What identity?"
"Mrs. Xu's husband, Xu Fulai, is the observer of Jiangnan East Road. Can you, an unofficial Jinshi, be offended?"
Xie Li was surprised when he heard that Mrs. Xu was actually the wife of a high-ranking official.
"Xu Jian, don't take yourself too seriously. I don't care where you come from. Suzhou is the most prosperous city in the south of the Yangtze River. Its wealth is no less than that of Chang'an. Those who can enter my Xuandanzhai are all noble ladies."
Miss."
He thanked him and said, "If this Xuandanzhai wants to betray men, I'm sorry, but I can't do it with this big shopkeeper."
