Chapter 78 Playing Tricks on Lin Xian'er

Lin Xian'er, whose pride was put down by the silly princess, was embarrassed and upset, and she played cards without any rules.

Yingchun, Banxia and Yingxue seemed to have good luck, and they had to win big cards.

They took turns to win five prizes, one dragon and three big prizes, and in the end Yingchun actually won the rare Tian Zhizun, and everyone lost 660 taels of silver to her!

After four rounds of playing cards, Lin Xian'er lost more than 2,600 taels, and she was already upset and depressed. Fortunately, the game could finally be over.

Lin Xian'er acted nonchalant, stood up and said with a smile, "I'm a little tired after playing four rounds of cards, let's play another day!"

Yingchun sighed with lingering feelings, "Alas! I'm so lucky!"

Chunmei looked at the servant who slapped her twice and said angrily, "So what if you're so lucky? My lady lost more than two thousand taels of silver in four rounds of cards, and you're not allowed to end the game?!"

Luo Li's face darkened!

"Xian'er, you're not a good servant! Do you want me to help you discipline you?"

Chunmei was so scared that she knelt down on the ground with a "thump"! : "Princess, please spare my life, please spare me! I dare not say anything more!"

Lin Xian'er was resentful, but she could only scold Chunmei, "You are such a short-sighted person, don't talk too much in the future!"

She turned to Luo Li and bowed, "Princess, please be generous, don't argue with me, I will teach her a lesson when I go back."

Luo Li's eyes were full of the domineering side of a mistress!

"Forget it! Today, this princess is in a bad mood and is too lazy to argue with a servant. If you dare to say a word in my Ning Xinyuan in the future, I will sell you out of the Qin Palace!"

Chunmei trembled with fear!

She kowtowed to thank him and said she would never dare to do it again. She made up her mind that she would never come to Ning Xinyuan again.

Lin Xian'er's face turned red and white, and she was a little embarrassed, but she had nothing to say.

Although Chunmei was a confidant of her and her mother, she was a servant who sold herself to the Qin Palace. If the Qin Princess wanted to punish her, they and her mother would not be able to stop her.

Ai Cao was relieved in her heart!

She deserved it!

This bullying Chunmei has bullied me a lot by relying on the favor of Mrs. Lin and my cousin. The princess finally helped me vent my anger!

Luo Li's expression relaxed, and a friendly and charming smile appeared again, "Xian'er, do you like your perfume? I have several other flower scents here, why don't you take a few more to try?"

Lin Xian'er thought, you let me take a few more perfumes, won't you charge me? But the temptation of the magical perfume was irresistible.

"Princess, the perfumes and shampoos you mix are all very useful things, give me another bottle of each scent!"

Luo Li ordered, "Ruhua Siyu, go to my private warehouse to help Xian'er find the goods, see if it's available yet?"

Ruhua and Siyu smiled and agreed, and ran out to move the goods from the private warehouse.

Luo Li turned around and said to Lin Xian'er sincerely, "Xian'er, you don't know, the goods I have were sold out when the "An Xiang Ji Ren" store opened a few days ago.

There are not many stocks left, so I can only sell them to related customers. That is to say, you are here, if someone else comes, I will at most give up one bottle."

This is true. I have heard that when the silly princess's store opened, all the goods were sold out in two hours and closed down.

So, this silly princess really looks at me, Lin Xian'er, differently!

Lin Xian'er said gratefully, "Thank you for your kindness, Princess. I am very grateful."

Luo Li waved her hand generously, "You're family, so don't be polite. Xian'er, if you're out of stock, you don't have to queue up in the store to buy it. Just tell me. The stock in my hands will be supplied to my family first."

Not long after, Ruhua and Siyu brought in a wooden box and opened the lid.

: "Miss, put a bottle of each scent of perfume, and put a bottle of the newly made jasmine scent for Miss Lin.

Also put a bottle of each scent of shampoo, a bar of each scent of soap, and a bag of each flavor of toothpaste."

Luo Li asked with some reluctance, "Are you putting a bottle of the newly made jasmine scent in there as well? I haven't been willing to use them yet!"

Lin Xian'er was delighted to hear this, and joked, "Princess, what's in the box is mine, you can't take it out again."

Luo Li smiled magnanimously, "How can you take back something that's been taken out, Ruhua, help Miss Xian'er with the math!"

Ruhua took out an exquisite pocket abacus, and her slender fingers clattered around, and in a moment she reported the amount.

"Six bottles of perfume cost 116 taels of gold, five bottles of shampoo cost 150 taels of silver, six bars of soap cost 18 taels of silver, and five bags of toothpaste cost 15 taels of silver.

The total is 116 taels of gold and 183 taels of silver."

Lin Xian'er felt something was wrong!

"Ruhua, did you make a mistake in your account? Isn't perfume 16 taels of gold per bottle? Shouldn't six bottles of perfume cost 96 taels of gold?"

Ruhua put away her abacus and explained with a smile, "Miss Lin, you don't know that the stock of this perfume is too small. No matter who you give it to, you can no longer get a preferential price. The price of the rare and precious bottle with the scent of eucalyptus is 26 taels of gold."

Lin Xian'er felt a pain in her heart as if a piece of her heart had been cut out by a knife. He could only pretend to be indifferent and smiled, "In that case, wait for me to go back and send someone to send money!"

He turned around and smiled at Luo Li ingratiatingly, "Princess, Xian'er came to you today to ask for something."

Luo Li was happily calculating the income of this period of time. Thinking that the perfume made of Qionghua essential oil had no side effects on the skin after Lin Xian'er tried it, the remaining Qionghua essential oil could be made into perfume and sold for a lot of money. After hearing

what Lin Xian'er said, he came back to his senses.

"What's the matter with asking for something? Xian'er, just ask if you have something."

"Princess, I heard that the Shi family's "Jinxiu Manor has a batch of top-grade Shu brocade. My mother and I want to make some clothes, so we asked Butler Zhao to buy a few pieces, but he said he didn't dare to make the decision and asked you, Princess, to buy them. Look..."

Luo Li was amused in her heart, but she looked ignorant.

"Doesn't our Qin Palace have its own cloth shop? I've seen the exquisite weaving of those cotton cloths, and the dyed patterns are also very beautiful.

Cotton cloth is breathable and comfortable to wear.

Why buy cloth from other people's shops when you can use your own free cloth? Isn't this a loss of face for our Qin Palace? "

Lin Xian'er was upset! She

said embarrassedly, "Princess, the cotton cloth sold in our Qin Palace is only worn by the lower class.

If people of our status wear it outside, we will be laughed at."

Luo Li suddenly realized!

"Oh! This princess forgot that you, Xian'er, are a person of noble status. Then let Butler Zhao buy two pieces of Shujin to make clothes for you and your mother each.

" "Two pieces?..." Lin Xian'er thought she had heard wrongly.

Luo Li looked into her eyes and said generously, "One piece may not be enough for each of you to make a set of clothes, so buy two pieces! "

Lin Xian'er had to shut her mouth in frustration.

In her heart, she cursed this petty and silly princess, who was really a Pixiu! She only wanted to eat and not poop! Spending money was as hard as cutting her flesh. ...

After Lin Xian'er left with Ai Cao, who was holding a wooden box, and the wilted Chunmei, the whole room suddenly burst into laughter.

The ignorant Banxia and Yingxue laughed like pigs!

Banxia laughed so hard that she held her stomach and bent over, "Oh my god! I'm laughing to death! ... Lin Xian'er, who is so fairy-like, was treated like a fool by our princess!"

Yingxue also laughed so hard that she was out of breath, "Lin Xian'er... this problem of being arrogant and pretentious, only... only our princess can cure it! "

Luo Li waved her hand triumphantly, "Are you still grinning like an idiot? This fat sheep has been slaughtered twice. If Lin Xian'er still comes to play cards with you, she would be a brain-dead idiot.

Quickly count how much money you three have won from the noble Miss Lin? Hurry up and divide it up and do what you need to do!"

Ruhua turned her head and smiled at Luo Li, "Miss, let Lin Xian'er try the bottle of perfume made from marigold essential oil. If there are no bad side effects after using it, I will make all the marigold essential oil stored in the Luo Mansion's warehouse into perfume and sell it at a high price! "

Luo Li nodded happily.

Yingchun and the other two hurried to the table, took out a pile of silver and banknotes from their cloth bags, and counted them happily.

Excluding the original capital of one hundred taels each, they won two thousand six hundred and thirty-two taels of silver.

This time, except for the change, the two thousand six hundred taels were all banknotes. Yingchun didn't mind giving it up, and put a thousand-tael banknote into her pocket and took out two hundred taels of silver.

The three maids who slaughtered the fat sheep with their own hands each got eight hundred taels, and the remaining two hundred taels of silver were given to Wanqiu, who didn't participate in the battle, so that they could all share in the joy!

Yingchun's eyes were shining with excitement! "If we can slaughter this fat sheep Lin Xian'er a few more times, I'll be able to buy a big house for my parents! "

Ruhua slapped her in the face with amusement!

"Don't just daydream! Didn't you say Lin Xian'er is a smart person? Maybe she has already figured it out by now."...

Today, the one who was grinning from ear to ear in the Qin Palace was Butler Zhao.

After hearing that the princess only agreed to buy two pieces of Shujin for Madam Lin and her cousin, Butler Zhao was simply delighted.

In previous years, after the arrival of the top-quality Shujin, Madam Lin and her daughter would always buy dozens of pieces.

Last year, her cousin spent 32,000 taels of silver to buy a ruby ​​headdress. This year, the princess will not... Let her do whatever she wants, right?

The prince took back the housekeeping power and handed it over to the princess. It was really an extremely wise decision!

The Qin Palace is a big family with a lot of money. It's not that they can't afford it. But as a housekeeper, seeing outsiders squandering the money of the palace so extravagantly, I always feel a little uncomfortable.
