Dressed as a villain's stepmother, I use spiritual springs to raise cubs

Chapter 25



What a big breath.

A trace of contempt flashed in Wang Meixia's eyes.

It's a pity that she doesn't know much about this town and the surrounding villages. Although the Xia family still has some money, they only have a family property left. After being squandered by that Xia Lei, they will live on the streets within a few months.

As for the Mohist, although he was an official before, he has been reviled now and is bedridden. It is not known whether he is dead or alive.

There are still two half-grown children under her knees.

And Xia Bai'an himself is just an idler, and the savings of the Mo family will almost be squandered.

Now, where else can I get the money?

She insisted that Xia Bai'an was not ready yet, so she only winked at the maid behind her.

The servant girl understood, but after a while, she brought a thick account book and threw it in front of Xia Bai'an with a smile: "Miss Xia, this is the account you owe for many years."

How thick is it?

Xia Bai'an opened it and found Xia Lei's name scattered inside, so he raised his eyebrows.

"Xia Lei's account is not included in the Xia family's account, why is it recorded in my name?"

Wang Meixia pursed her lips: "Xia Lei is your younger brother, so it is naturally recorded in your name, and every time he comes, he always picks up the best rouge and gouache to take away. If you count it down, there are at least two or thirty taels. "

This Xia Lei probably bought rouge powder and squandered it in the place of fireworks.

Xia Bai'an was not annoyed, but just smiled.

"It's okay, I'm already the married daughter of the Xia family, and I'm already a member of the Mo family in my name. How can I continue to share the same account with the Xia family, and trouble Boss Wang to transfer Xia Lei's account."

Wang Meixia smiled slightly: "Of course."

Even without Xia Lei's account book, she still can't afford it!

The servant girl understood, and hurriedly helped to change the account book.

Someone revised the accounts, and Xia Bai'an didn't want to sit with Wang Meixia in silence, so he got up and went out for a walk.

Wang Meixia asked her to walk around the counter at the back, lest she go to the front and scare away the customers.

Xia Bai'an was not annoyed, and looked around.

The beauty shop is full of rouge and gouache, and less gold, silver and jewelry are sold.

And she glanced at a few boxes hastily, and couldn't help frowning.

Maybe it's because there aren't many things here, some of the rouge inside is mostly made of red and blue flowers, and they are all the most common grades. The spices used are different, but the lead in it seems to be a little heavier, although it can make the rouge solidify. In pieces, but also not good for the skin.

As for the thrush objects on the side, although they were all crushed by Shi Dai, upon closer inspection, they were all of the lowest grade.

This shop is a bit misleading.

Is this for beauty, or for harm?

Xia Bai'an was frowning, when the servant girl hurried over and said, "Miss Xia, the account books have been sorted out, please come and have a look."

"Ah."

Xia Bai'an heard the sound and left.

When she came to the inside, she read the account book carefully and laughed.

"Boss Wang, are you cheating on me?"

"The account books are written in black and white, and everything is clearly marked with a price. Maybe something is wrong?"

"Although I bought a lot of rouge and gouache before, I can't use up three boxes in two days."

Even if her face was as big as an ashlar brick, one box would last five or six days.

This Wang Meixia really dared to open her mouth like a lion, buying ninety boxes in a month, and dared to put it in front of her!

A gleam flashed across Wang Meixia's eyes.

"Whether it will be used up or not, I don't know. I only know that you bought so much. If you don't accept the account, I will report to the authorities."

"Heh, it seems that Boss Wang is unwilling to admit that he lied to me. If so, why don't people from outside come to judge."

Saying that, Xia Bai'an went outside directly with the ledger.

The servant girl watched with worry on her face: "Miss, Xia Bai'an is a shrew, she won't make a big fuss then."

"I'm still worried that she won't make trouble."

Wang Meixia shook her sleeves and got up, her eyes were burning, "Second sister said beautiful dolls, I will naturally get them, as long as I get on the line of the county magistrate in the future, our Meiyanxuan family will not be the only one in Qingshan Town! And let her make a scene known to everyone, and she will not be able to pay the money at that time, so her daughter must pay for it!"

The servant girl put her heart back in her stomach and followed Wang Meixia out.

Come to the vestibule.

Xia Bai'an slapped the account book on the table and said, "Please help me evaluate it."

As soon as the women saw that something was going on, they all gathered around.

"Hey, sister Xia has such a big face, she uses so much rouge and gouache."

"There are so many pockmarks, so naturally we need to use so many."

The women who knew or didn't know all laughed together, seeing Xia Bai'an as a joke.

Who doesn't know that Xia Bai and Anton act like a coward, he lives in the village, but his heart is in the capital.

She is born ugly, but she is a good climber and a shrew. Now the Xia family and the Mo family can't protect her, and anyone can step on her.

Even in front of her, he wouldn't give him two good looks.

Xia Bai'an just glanced at Wang Meixia who was in the corner, seeing a smile on the corner of her mouth, he understood.

The two sisters of the Wang family are not good at it.

Naturally, she doesn't show mercy when she does things.

"When I came to the shop before, what I bought more was this peach blossom rouge. Is it written in black and white?"

"nature."

Wang Meixia walked over slowly, "This kind of peach blossom is a box of two hundred copper plates in our shop. The price is very expensive. Sister Xia buys eighty or ninety boxes every month, and this Yuanshan Meidai, There are seven or eight sticks a month, at least one will cost eighty copper coins."

Everyone was in an uproar: "Miss Xia really used a lot!"

Xia Bai'an nodded, looked around again, walked to the multi-purpose peach rouge, picked up a box by himself, said with a smile: "It's this kind."

"That's right." Wang Meixia vowed.

Xia Bai'an sniffed lightly, raised his eyebrows and said: "This rouge is made of red and blue flower juice, with a little bit of sapphire wood, among which are cloves, peeled peach kernels, soil melon roots, and some parsnip."

Xia Bai'an spoke seriously, and everyone in the room fell silent instantly.

How did she know what material was used?

Even Wang Meixia's face changed: "You... not only have these, but also some expensive spices in it, so the price is naturally more expensive."

"spices?"

Xia Bai'an sneered, "If we say that the wild flowers and pomegranates in the wild places can be regarded as precious spices."

Everyone was in an uproar, and they all rushed to Xia Bai'an.

These are all cheap things!Where is it worth two hundred copper coins!

Xia Bai'an was neither humble nor overbearing, and said: "Besides, I alone make ninety boxes per month, and Boss Wang's shop has more than thirty kinds of rouge, one kind only makes twenty boxes a month, and how much red and blue do I use?" What about flower juice?"

She pushed aside the crowd and walked towards Wang Meixia step by step, thinking that when she went to the market before, she had roughly figured out the prices and types of foreign things.

At this time, it is natural to say it easily: "There are no red and blue flowers around Qingshan Town, they are all from outside, and they go to the market four times a month, and there are no more than [-] in the market. The monthly production is only seventy boxes."

"I don't know, how does your beauty shop sell me eighty or ninety boxes every month?"

"Did I make a fake out of it? Or did I make a mistake?"
