"I've really never seen a fool like the Seventh Prince, rushing to become his father!" Jin Xiaotao sat in the room, eating melon seeds while rolling her eyes.
Every time she thought about how Jin Xiaoluo had given birth to a bastard and could even claim the life of a prince, Jin Xiaotao would feel a lump of mud in her heart, causing her to be unable to catch her breath. When she turned around, she saw Guangkun staring blankly out of the window with listless eyes.
She had originally thought that after the Mrs. Ji came to ask He Guangkun a few questions, Jin Xiaolou would have been swept out of her room in the blink of an eye and back to her home in Xin Ning.
The wind blew past, but Jin Xiaolou did not even move the grass. Instead, she was even more pleased with herself.
Linlang Liu-Li's two businesses were in full swing as they started to make something like jelly. It was said that she had already made her way into the palace.
Jin Xiaotao threw the melon seed shell on the table towards He Guangkun, causing the scattered seed shell to splash all over his body.
He Guangkun stood up abruptly, he shook off the melon seeds on his body, and stared at Jin Xiaotao with disbelief: "How dare you! Disrespectful! How could I take an ignorant woman like you! "
Jin Xiaotao coldly snorted. "I even regret marrying such a useless man! If it weren't for you holding me back, I wouldn't be like this today. "
"What happened to you today?" He Guangkun's face was filled with anger.
Although he couldn't compare to the famous aristocrats in the capital, he still raised himself up in a noble house. In the Xin Ning, in a place where the heavens were high and the emperor was far away, he was still the crown prince.
It was her own fault for being blind. At that time, Jin Xiaotao was the subject of a peasant girl, and it was father and mother who absolutely did not agree to it in the first place.
"What's wrong with me?" Jin Xiaotao was so angry that she started laughing, "Look at Jin Xiaolou, then look at me, what did you say happened to me?!"
"A human heart is not satisfied with swallowing an elephant!" He Guangkun didn't want to speak anymore with Jin Xiaotao, he only regretted marrying Jin Xiaolou back then.
One of these two sisters was from heaven while the other was from earth!
Jin Xiaotao was also unwilling to waste words with He Guangkun, she glared at him, then raised her head and shouted out: "Luo'er!"
After a moment, a Little Maid with two bun entered the house.
"How is it going with what I told you to ask?" Jin Xiaotao's face was filled with impatience.
"If you find out anything about the shopkeeper, the jelly is extraordinarily simple. It's made from lotus flowers that grow out of the mud on the riverbank."
"Lotus stem?" I've never heard of such a thing! " Jin Xiaotao's face was full of suspicion.
"Mm …" I think it's called the Ghost Head Lotus Rod, which can be grinded into powder and turned into a tune! " Luo'er looked up, "It's really very simple, but very few people know of this recipe, so Jin Xiaolou made it fresh."
Jin Xiaotao rolled her eyes. "Did you hear it from someone, reliable?"
"There's a girl called Jinhua in the Liuli Workshop." "I'm from the same village, so I didn't know her at all. She told me all about it after just a few words."
"Then, how could you know about that lotus flower pole?" Jin Xiaotao's face revealed extreme joy.
Luo'er nodded and leaned over to whisper a few words into Jin Xiaotao's ear.
The two of them immediately walked out.
When He Guangkun saw Jin Xiaotao's expression, he knew that she was going to make things difficult for him again.
Last time, under the pressure and enticement of Jin Xiaotao, He Guangkun had already unwillingly lied in front of the Mrs. Ji.
Because of slandering Jin Xiaolou as her own child, He Guangkun had always felt uneasy. Right now, he followed Jin Xiaotao and left the house from head to toe, hurriedly heading towards Golden Appendage Lane.
Jin Xiaolou was bringing along Lin'er and Lv Yun to play with the tadpoles by the river.
It was still too early for Fang Zi to open the door, so the three of them were tired from playing. They were sitting by the river in the cool breeze when they suddenly saw a person sneakily leaning behind a willow tree not far away, peeking his head out towards them.
Jin Xiaolou's eyes were sharp, and instantly recognized that it was He Guangkun.
Jin Xiaolou turned and said to Lv Yun, "Look after Lin'er, I'll be right back."
With that, he stood up and walked towards He Guangkun. Seeing Jin Xiaolou coming over, He Guangkun immediately stood up, his expression serious.
In He Guangkun's impression, Jin Xiaolou was still the little girl who told him to paint some vinegar when he first met her, but now that he had taken a closer look, he realised that this little girl's face had become more plump and fair, and was even more radiant than before.
Shi Mu felt a little dizzy. He supported the willow tree by his side before standing up.
"Lady Xiaolou, do you still remember me?" He Guangkun asked softly.
"He … Young Master." Jin Xiaolou nodded and politely smiled at him, "Of course I remember you, but are you here specifically to find me?"
Jin Xiaolou was a little confused, she couldn't think of why He Guangkun would come to look for her, but she could clearly see just now that He Guangkun was hiding behind a willow tree and staring at her non-stop.
"Lady Xiaolou, I'm here to tell you to be careful." He Guangkun opened his mouth, "Miss Jin Hua, from your shop, you already told Jin Xiaotao your recipe for the jelly. With Jin Xiaotao's personality, I'm afraid that she will be able to make the same fruit jelly tonight. I'm worried, I'm worried about the business of your Liuli Workshop …"
"Don't worry." Jin Xiaolou didn't think that it was because of this that she said, "You have to be careful of her. Go back first."
did not care at all. Even if Liuli Workshop and jelly's business were to be snatched away, Jin Xiaolou still had ways to make other things.
This He Guangkun, did he really think that she, Jin Xiaolou, would be able to establish herself in the capital with just the Fruit Jelly Recipe?
Seeing that Jin Xiaolou wanted to leave, He Guangkun panicked, and immediately pulled her sleeves: "There's more! Lady Xiaolou... Rumors about your child... I... I'm sorry. "
Jin Xiaolou retracted her sleeves, He Guangkun rubbed her hands together in embarrassment, she lowered his head, and when she raised his head again, she saw Jin Xiaolou smiling in front of him.
"It's alright, the reason why Jin Xiaotao felt that the Lin'er was your child was because I made up a lie in order to save his life." Jin Xiaolou frankly told her the whole story, "I was the one who made use of you first, and if you want to say I'm sorry, it's me who should be the one who told you first."
"You better explain it clearly to Jin Xiaotao as well, in case she keeps it in her heart." Jin Xiaolou then turned and left.
Jin Xiaolou knew clearly that those who loved her would not believe these rumors, and she did not care about those who believed in these rumors.
"So that's how it is … "So that's how it is …" He Guangkun muttered, and stood in place for a long time.
Just as He Guangkun had said, on the second day, the De's Shop released five different types of jelly. They tasted the same as the Liuli Workshop, but the price was much cheaper.
Jin Xiaolou heard the sound of wind when she and Yue Yang went to the street to choose White Sugar together.
Just as they were about to enter the candy store, they saw Jin Xiaotao leading a Little Maid who had a humble appearance, and also walking in.
Seeing Jin Xiaolou, Jin Xiaotao laughed so hard that her mouth almost reached the back of her head, "Yo, even the Liuli Workshop manager came out personally to buy candy? Why don't you hug your little bastard at home? "
"Be a bit more polite when you speak." The wet clothes that did not like to argue with others had actually stood out first.
"What, am I wrong?" Jin Xiaotao glanced at Yue Yang, "It's also all thanks to our open-minded Great Zhou. Otherwise, a girl from a brothel like you would dare to run all over the streets? If we were to leave somewhere else, it would be disgraceful! "
"He Guangkun might have forgotten, let me remind you again, the Lin'er is not his child, it's mine and's." Jin Xiaolou took a step forward, and with a calm and composed expression, she said, "Presumptuously discussing about princes is a serious crime."
"I …" Jin Xiaotao was furious, but she had also heard that the woman who set up a stall on the street just a few days ago, was dragged down and beaten down just because she spoke a few more words to the background of Golden Lin'er.
Naturally, she was afraid, but she could not help but mutter under her breath, "Dragons give birth to dragons, phoenixes give birth to phoenixes. The son of a mouse knows how to make a hole." When a child grows up, naturally, everything can be seen clearly! "
When He Guangkun came back yesterday, he had talked to her for a long time. The words he spoke to her about was only that he and Jin Xiaolou had never had any physical relationship, and that child was even more so not related to him at all.
When Jin Xiaotao heard it, she became even angrier. If Jin Xiaolou was really born with the son of the Seventh Prince, with the power of a mother, what would happen?
Furthermore, looking at He Guangkun's manner of defending Jin Xiaolou, Jin Xiaotao felt sick of it.
Although she loathed He Guangkun, but she couldn't bear to see him defending another woman in front of her.
The prince didn't know whether to say or to say, but the man in front of him was certainly capable of doing so, right?
Jin Xiaotao pursed her lips: "I don't know what bewitching soup you fed my He Guangkun yesterday. Jin Xiaolou, do you look down on any man and start pouncing towards him? If one is not enough, do you still need to find another one from outside? "
As Jin Xiaotao's words fell, another sentence successively followed up: "However, be careful that you don't catch the man, the business will also decline. Jin Xiaolou, you can't sell your Liuli Workshop's Jelly today, right? "I'm not afraid of telling you that from today onwards, I will follow whatever you sell, and it will be even cheaper than yours."
After saying all that, Jin Xiaotao's heart was at ease.
Today, there was an endless stream of people who went to the De's Shop to buy Fruit Jelly. This time, she finally managed to compete with Jin Xiaolou!
Unexpectedly, after he finished speaking, Jin Xiaolou's face turned happy.
"Don't be too happy too early. Some jellyfish can eat it, while others can't." Jin Xiaolou said as she walked out of the candy store.
"What do you mean?" Jin Xiaotao was baffled, but she understood the meaning behind Jin Xiaolou's words.
Looking at Jin Xiaolou's leaving figure, Jin Xiaotao raised her eyebrows, treating Jin Xiaolou as if she was pretending to be relaxed, and purposely said some words to confuse him: "Hmph, I'm just worried that you will get angry, I don't even care about buying the candy, quickly go back and think of a plan!"
Just as Jin Xiaolou walked out of the candy store, she pulled on her wet clothes: Quickly, go buy more ginger juice, mix it with vinegar and charge forth.
