Chapter 392 Jealousy

After listening to the maid's words, Mrs. Meng could completely understand her daughter's mood. She didn't feel comfortable hearing it now.

You can buy two houses in Kyoto, and with so many shops and warehouses, you can’t buy them without hundreds of thousands taels, right?

The wealthy people who grow crops in the countryside are richer than those who have been here in the capital for several years. This gap makes people feel bad when they hear it.

Besides, that family was an acquaintance, and Mrs. Meng also knew that her daughter was prejudiced against that family’s youngest daughter!

Even if Mrs. Meng knew about it, there was nothing she could do about it. Others have business acumen. It is entirely the ability of that family to make so much money in the countryside in a few years.

She is a woman born into a big family. She has a noble status and is trained by professionals, but she has no talent for doing business!

Mrs. Meng knew the reason why her daughter was unhappy. Not to mention that her daughter was unhappy when she knew about it. She felt sad when she knew about it.

The noble lady's original advantages may now gradually become inferior to those of the country people.

Of course, I also understand that it is not just the luck of this family, this family is even more fortunate to have a backing, and a strong backing can make them a nouveau riche.

Mrs. Meng knew at this moment that she was no longer able to teach her daughter better and had to spend money to hire a better husband for her daughter.

To find a husband for her daughter, she still needed help from her maternal family. She thought of asking the best husband to train her daughter. Instead of asking someone who knew how to do business to teach her daughter to do business, it would be better to ask a husband to teach her daughter etiquette.

A woman who has business acumen and makes more money is not as good as marrying into a good family or a powerful family.

Mrs. Meng wrote a greeting note, and then wrote another letter to be sent to her parents' home. She had been going back to her parents' home in person tomorrow.



The Ye family's mansion, shop, and manor have new owners. They were purchased by the same person as the Zhao family's mansion, shop, manor, and warehouse, and it was still written under the name of an eight or nine-year-old girl.

This news soon became known to all the powerful people in the capital who were interested in the two families.

In addition to the emperor knowing, the women around him knew that his sons from the eldest prince to the 15th prince knew that of the emperor's 16 sons, only the 16th son was not yet an adult and still lived in the palace. The other princes already had mansions and had moved out.

Live in the palace.

The thirteenth prince, Zhao Yufei, who was wearing a purple brocade dress, had just returned from the teahouse with his friend. The friend also came to the house and was sitting in the study with him talking about things.

The good friend of the thirteenth prince Zhao Yufei is Ye Haoxuan, the prince of Yongbohou Mansion who is wearing white brocade. Both of them are tall and thin, with noble temperament and handsome faces. They look low-key on the surface, but secretly they are very ambitious.

.

Zhao Yufei is planning like other princes, and they all have their own teams. For two people to become friends, of course they are on the same team, and the family also supports this prince.

Zhao Yufei has another advantage, that is, he is the son of a queen. Although he is not a eldest prince, he is a legitimate son. He is nobler than those children born of noble concubines or concubines, and he has the support of the queen's mother's family.

The attendant who was sent out before the "report" came back after lunch to report.

"Come in!"

As soon as Zhao Yufei finished speaking, the door was gently pushed open, and the people he sent out came in!

"Report to the 13th Prince, the matter has been investigated!"

"Say" Ye Haoxuan moved his thin lips lightly.

Ye Haoxuan..., the guards I sent out haven't returned yet, the prince's information network is better than mine!

"Report to the 13th prince, I have found some information. It turns out that the Ye family's property and the Zhao family's property are written in the name of an eight or nine-year-old girl, and the other party's father is also quite strange.

This little girl has four older sisters and a younger brother. Such a large amount of property is not allowed to be in the name of other children. I heard that his eldest daughter has been engaged to a wealthy family in Kyoto, but it is not for the eldest daughter.

There is a dowry in my daughter’s name.”

"This family is also named Ye. From the clues, we know that this family is related to one of General Ye's aunts and comes from a remote mountain village far away."

"Have you checked to find out more about this family? Could they be the descendants of General Ye?"

Ye Haoxuan couldn't help but said after hearing this.

"The eldest son of Yongbohou Mansion, what my subordinates found out is that General Ye's housekeeper and Mr. Zhao didn't know them before. It was the future uncle who was looking for a matchmaker.

Moreover, the Ye family who are buying property actually own property in the countryside. I heard that the little girl went to the Tang family’s silver shop to borrow money, and used the jade plaque of the young master, the head of the Tang family. The little girl’s mother once lived in this country.

The young master worked as a wet nurse.

Their family's fortune also started when the wet nurse left the young master. Mr. Ye is a carpenter and is related to some wooden products and toys that have appeared in recent years!"

"Prince 13, this family is quite interesting. The bicycle they invented, doesn't it come from the Tang family's industry?"

Ye Haoxuan has already begun to take an interest in this family.

"If there is an abnormality, it means there is content to be excavated. This family will make money, so it will be useful to us."

Zhao Yufei thought about his hegemony, so he needed a backstage support. In addition to his mother's clan, he also needed people from the outside, such as those from Laozi.

General Ye is the person the emperor is most worried about. The emperor has been suppressing them in recent years. They are secretly transporting food to the border towns. If no one secretly supports them, how can they be so smooth!

Those people sent by the emperor and those sent by treacherous officials continued to cause trouble.

Zhao Yufei didn't know this when he was a child. As he grew up and had his own team, people who supported him, and an intelligence network, he respected the Ye family.

Now that he has thought of including these people in his team, the safety of these people must be within his protection scope.

"Pay attention to the actions of other princes and send someone to protect this family."

"Yes." The guard listened to the prince's arrangement and went out to arrange for his men to handle it.

"Brother Zhao, do you think the Ye family can be useful to us?" Ye Haoxuan did not expect the 13th prince to make such a big move.

Zhao Yufei nodded and said: "If this family has the support of the Tang family and can enter Jingdong to buy a house, then their abilities are not simple, and there is also an old general Ye."

"Brother Zhao also thinks that the origin of this family is not simple? Isn't he just a relative of General Ye's aunt?" Ye Haoxuan is even more interested in a little girl. Someone who can attract the attention of the prince, tsk tsk, what a show!

Zhao Yufei nodded and said: "Isn't it simple? Just keep checking and you will know. You will know if the donkey is a horse!"



Ye Shiqi didn't know what their family was doing, especially since her father had written the property under her name. More people knew about it and were interested in their family.

They returned to the house under the escort of the old housekeeper and guards.

It was almost dark this time, and Zhong Xingwang did not want to go home, but planned to stay here for one night.
