Chapter 141: Su Xiaoxiao makes a move
"Your Highness the Princess is right. The price for someone else's beauty is only half of yours. How can you have the nerve to charge such a high price for something you copied?"
"Refund! Refund!"
Seeing the guards beside Zhou Donger holding his arms, Shopkeeper Shi broke out in a cold sweat, fearing that he was really in jail. He knelt down in a hurry and said tremblingly: "Princess, please calm down, I don't know about this matter. I
I just follow the recipe and don’t know the use of white peony flower."
"You don't know the uses of white peony flowers and you still dare to open a cosmetics store?" Zhou Dong'er raised her eyebrows and asked, "Is there someone else behind you? If you tell your boss, you can be punished lightly."
These words pierced Han Yucui's heart. Han Yucui was afraid that she would be confessed by shopkeeper Shi, and she even broke out in a cold sweat on her palms.
At this moment, a charming voice came.
"Why is it so lively here today? Mrs. Lin, is your shop your shop? You didn't tell me, and I couldn't even congratulate you in time." Su Xiaoxiao came here in a hurry, and Li Ke was very affectionate towards her.
, a lot of money was thrown at her, and in just one day, Su Xiaoxiao had gained a bit of nobility made of gold and silver.
She came to Princess Qinghe and said affectionately: "Princess Qinghe, I am Su Xiaoxiao, the cousin of His Royal Highness. I just heard my maid tell you what happened here, so I would like to explain the misunderstanding on this matter."
"That Mei Jian Cui added white peony root to the prescription was actually my suggestion."
Before he finished speaking, Han Yucui's pupils dilated, and Shopkeeper Shi's eyes also showed a bit of surprise.
He reacted in an instant, nodded and said, "Yes... that's it."
"I just came to the capital, and I was still unfamiliar with everything here, so I wanted to walk around. When I came to Luban Street, I saw shopkeeper Shi holding a box of rouge and looking worried. When I walked in, I realized that he was
I thought the color was too dark, so I didn’t think much about it at the time. I just thought he was a man with a special hobby, so I told shopkeeper Shi that white peony flowers could brighten the color, but I didn’t want to cause such an uproar.”
Su Xiaoxiao said angrily, "If I knew that my unintentional mistake could cause such a big loss, I would really... say more is useless. I am willing to give additional money and invite all pregnant women who have purchased rouge to go to Jishi Hall to have their pulse checked.
Depending on how the fetus looks, I, Su Xiaoxiao, will bear the cost of the fetal protection medicine and consultation."
As soon as Su Xiaoxiao finished speaking, she noticed Zhou Yan's eyes falling on her.
Su Xiaoxiao looked at each other calmly: "Cousin, what do you think is wrong with the way I handled it? If there is anything that my cousin didn't take into account, please let me know."
Su Xiaoxiao naturally did this perfectly.
But Zhou Yan had known for a long time that Mei Jian Cui's employer was Han Yucui. Su Xiaoxiao openly stood up to speak for Mei Jian Cui, which was completely in two camps with Zhou Yan.
It doesn't matter, Zhou Yan himself doesn't care about his cousin Su Xiaoxiao.
He shook his head: "Just do as you say."
"Yes." Su Xiaoxiao smiled sweetly, "Those who don't know are not guilty. I also ask the princess to give Shopkeeper Shi a chance. I don't know about plagiarism and other things, but the Bai Shaohua incident is because of me after all."
rise."
Since the Bai Shao Hua incident has been clearly explained, the plagiarism issue is at best vicious competition and cannot be convicted.
Zhou Donger gritted his teeth, but had no choice but to say suppressedly: "Since this matter is a mistake, let me let Shopkeeper Shi go. But Shopkeeper Shi, please remember clearly what you said about Fanghua just now.
Within one day, all the new rouge will be taken back and all the money will be refunded, otherwise, the princess will come to invite you in person."
"Yes." Shopkeeper Shi moved his shoulders and neck tremblingly, looked at Su Xiaoxiao gratefully, and took his servant back to Meijiancui to refund the money.
Seeing that the excitement had dissipated, the surrounding onlookers were impressed by Lin Xing's cosmetics and rushed into the store to buy.
The person who returned the product from Meijian Cui also chased after him.
Immediately, Xuanwu Third Street was surrounded by water, even far surpassing the glory of the eyebrow green yesterday.
Lin Xing was so busy that she couldn't turn around and didn't notice that Su Xiaoxiao and Han Yucui walked away and got into the same carriage.
Su Xiaoxiao sipped hot tea calmly and looked at Han Yucui condescendingly: "Mrs. Han, aren't you my cousin's stepmother? Why is my cousin so hostile to you?"
Han Yucui is obviously more than ten years older than Su Xiaoxiao, but now she is inexplicably forced by Su Xiaoxiao's momentum and becomes a little timid.
She hesitated and said: "If it's not the flesh that fell from my body, it won't be that close to me. Not to mention me, even the master..."
As Han Yucui spoke, her voice suddenly dropped.
She suddenly thought that Su Xiaoxiao was chasing Zhou Yan so hard before, and now that he was telling her these things, he might be trying to get something out of her mouth.
Han Yucui stared at Su Xiaoxiao warily.
Su Xiaoxiao smiled slightly: "Why should Mrs. Han be so wary of me? I spent a lot of money to help you smooth out the white peony flowers today, not to make you an enemy of me."
"I believe you also heard about the story between me and the prince a few days ago." Su Xiaoxiao said calmly, "I won't make excuses with you. Now I am someone close to the prince, and the prince's affairs are mine.
The prince told me about the matter.
Zhou Yan has been a thorn in his side for so many years, so I must settle things for His Royal Highness. Mrs. Han should understand what I mean. If you don't understand, Princess Qinghe doesn't seem to be far away now, so I can...
"
Han Yucui swallowed her saliva. Su Xiaoxiao was trying to win over her. If Mei Jiancui could have His Highness as his backer, she might not completely collapse...
Then her face among noble ladies and her extra income can also...
Han Yucui asked: "What do you mean, His Highness the Crown Prince can give Meijian Cui a guarantee in the future?"
Mei Jian Cui has long been unable to support Adou. Even with His Majesty as a guarantee, he is powerless!
Su Xiaoxiao was impatient, but still had a smile on her face: "You also know the current situation of Mei Jian Cui. If you want Mei Jian Cui to make a comeback, it depends on your Mei Jian Cui's performance. This has nothing to do with His Highness the Crown Prince.
His Royal Highness can only promise to do his part."
Han Yucui did not dare to ask for too much. She nodded: "Since His Highness the Crown Prince does not mind that I am a useless woman, I am naturally willing to serve His Highness the Crown Prince."
Su Xiaoxiao nodded and gestured to the maid next to her to pour a cup of hot tea for Han Yucui, "So, then you will tell me completely about Zhou Yan's life experience. After all, he is also the legitimate son. Why does the Marquis treat Zhou Yan and Zhou Miao completely differently?
?”
She did not believe that it was because Zhou Ke was deeply in love with Han Yucui that he loved Wujiwu, Zhou Miao and Zhou Ke. Anyone with eyes could see who was better.
