Chapter 579 Gu Yuanniang takes action
Xu Xi was still a little confused and tilted his head to look at Xu Miaomiao.
Xu Miaomiao then explained, "This is the money for you. You are a little girl now, so you must want to buy some things. Just spend the money."
Xu Xi looked at the banknote that Xu Miaomiao handed over, not knowing whether to take it or not. Seeing that he was indifferent, Xu Miaomiao also waved her hand: "Forget it, you don't understand these things yet. When the time comes, if you say there is something you want to buy, tell me and I will go over and buy it for you."
When Xu Xi heard this, he nodded at Xu Miaomiao and smiled at her. Seeing that he looked like a kitten, Xu Miaomiao couldn't help but touched Xu Xi's head, then turned around and left.
After breakfast, Xu Miaomiao just arrived at the gate of Gu Yuanniang's yard, but happened to run into Xu Qingshan who was about to go to the school. Xu Qingshan felt a little guilty about Xu Miaomiao because of the swing incident. When he looked at Xu Miaomiao, he was a little embarrassed: "I'm sorry, Madam Xu, I am indeed responsible for Xiaobao's matter."
"Okay, Master Qingshan, Xiaobao has found a way to recover. Don't pursue these things anymore. We are all a family. Your fault is naturally my fault. If I didn't have these things, how could this happen to Xiaobao? Master Xu, don't blame yourself anymore."
Hearing this, Xu Qingshan smiled and walked out the door.
With Xu Miaomiao's words, he dared to put his mind at ease. If anything happened to Xiaobao, he would never be able to pay for it even if he died.
As soon as she opened the door, she saw Gu Yuan's mother sitting on the bed feeding Xu Nian Miao. When she saw that it was Xu Miao Miao, she didn't say much. She just put the full Xu Nian Miao in the cradle and said to him, "How about it? Do you want to tell me about your plan?"
"Sixth Lady, how did you know?"
Gu Yuanniang looked at Xu Miaomiao's surprised expression and then spoke: "How could I not understand what kind of person you are? Weiwei suffered such a deception, and you also knew that it was the owner of the Rouge Shop and his brother who were in cahoots with each other to deceive people. How could you just let these things go? I believe you have already figured out how to punish them."
Xu Miaomiao nodded: "That's true, but it's a pity that he has met Wei Wei and me, so this matter must be handled by you, Liu Niang."
"Okay, okay. Nian Miao has been making a fuss these past few days and I really haven't had a moment to rest. You just need to look after this little monkey and leave the rest to me."
"Okay, Liu Niang, when the time comes, just go and check on the horse. Don't say anything extra to them. Just report it to the police. When the relevant person in charge comes, someone will naturally check what the horse has eaten. Then their scam will be exposed."
"Don't worry. I've been with you for such a long time. I can still handle such a small matter. I will bring them to justice later. You just need to stay at home."
Xu Miaomiao nodded, then looked at Gu Yuanniang and continued, "Don't go directly to the racecourse. After all, Shang Weiwei's incident happened a few days ago. If you go directly, your goal will be too clear and your purpose will be too big. It's better to go to the Rouge Shop."
"Don't worry."
Gu Yuanniang changed her clothes before coming to the rouge shop.
Like a woman who was shopping, she had specially put on clothes made in the capital's brocade clothing store. The owner of the rouge shop would definitely think that she was a big customer and would immediately go up to greet her and say, "What does this lady need?"
Gu Yuanniang took a deep breath, looked at him and said, "The things in Bai County are just not as good as those in the capital. Look at the rouge and powder, how can they compare with those in the capital."
The shopkeeper nodded and said, "That's true. But the things in the capital are naturally twice as expensive. Here, the goods are of good quality and cheap, and they are well placed and attract repeat customers. Since this lady is here for the first time, why don't you let me recommend something to you?"
Gu Yuanniang nodded slightly, and the man immediately introduced all the things in the shop to her. After listening to his introduction, Gu Yuanniang still frowned slightly: "Although my family is rich, business has not been very prosperous these days. If I suddenly buy so many things back, my husband will probably nag me again. I don't want to hear it. Forget it. If I have so much money myself, let alone buying the things in your shop, even if I ask you to buy the whole shop, wouldn't it be easy?"
"Since my wife is already so rich, why is she still thinking about making more money?" The man asked with some doubt.
Gu Yuanniang pretended to sigh deeply, and then continued, "What do you mean by rich? That money belongs to my husband, how can it belong to me? If that money was mine, I wouldn't have to choose so many things in your shop, and I could just buy it directly. If I could also have the ability to make money, why would I have to rely on others here?"
Listening to Gu Yuanniang's words, the man smiled and looked at him and said, "Madam, if you really want to make money, I do have a way."
"You?" Gu Yuanniang looked the man up and down curiously, shook her head and said to him, "You are a small shopkeeper of a rouge shop, how can you make money? Do you want to do hard labor? I won't do it if I serve tea and water. Although my family is not rich, it is still well-known. If you do hard labor for such a small amount of silver, then my husband will not have the face to live."
"It's not hard work." The man couldn't wait to introduce it: "It's a recreational activity, just suitable for a lady like you to enjoy."
"Oh? Then come and listen."
Gu Yuan, you are not in a hurry and sit down on a chair nearby. Today is not a day off, so there are relatively few people in the Rouge Shop. Gu Yuan's mother is the only one sitting inside for the whole afternoon. The man closed the door mysteriously, walked to Gu Yuan's mother's ear and said to her, "I know a way to make money, which is to bet on horses to see which horse runs faster. If you lose, you won't lose much money. There are only three horses in total. You just need to choose one. The chance is very high. And you only need to observe the strength of the horse's legs and the power of its legs. It is easy to recognize which horse runs faster. Are you interested, madam?"
Gu Yuanniang looked at him curiously when she heard this, and then she said, "I didn't expect that you, the owner of a small rouge shop, have such a brain and opened a horse farm. You are really amazing."
"This lady is too kind. This horse ranch is not owned by me. It is run by a friend of mine. But I am just a customer of his."
