The person who came to visit the Yuan family was Wu Xiuming. As the young master of the Wu family, he would not treat him badly. So it took him two days and two nights to get from the prefecture capital to the county seat. When he arrived at the county seat, he felt that he came to the door in a dusty state.
, it was a disgrace to the Wu family, so I ordered him again.
He held the fan and shook it gently. He had practiced the fan-waving posture at home, which showed his outstanding demeanor.
From the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of an open window in a house not far away, and two women looking at him. One was clearly dressed as a woman, and her appearance could only be described as delicate, while the other, a young lady, looked ordinary.
Wu Xiuming's eyes met Zhang Xinghua's, and Zhang Xinghua's face turned redder, showing a shy look. This shyness added a bit of touching charm to her ordinary face.
Wu Xiuming was extremely proud. This kind of girl from a small family who had never seen the world was easy to seduce. He had already captured a heart before he fully displayed his charm. It was a pity that the village girl was ordinary in appearance and was treated as a pawn for him.
The outer rooms are not qualified.
While he was thinking wildly, the door of Yuan's house opened, and it was Yuan Suifeng who opened the door.
Wu Xiuming's servant straightened his back and said with a sense of superiority in his tone, "My young master comes from the Wu family in the state capital. I heard that your family has a recipe for white sugar, so I came to do business with you."
"With our Wu family's name here, we will definitely not let your family suffer."
He boasted that as long as he named the Wu family in the state capital, the Yuan family would immediately guess their identities and then do business with them respectfully.
But Yuan Suifeng just scratched his head and said with a puzzled face: "Which Wu family?" Wu is not a rare surname. There are so many Wu families, how can he know which one?
The smile on Wu Xiuming's face faded. He was indeed a countryman who had never seen the world. He had never even heard of the Wu family.
The boy, who had a strong sense of honor for his family, said with an annoyed look on his face: "The largest cloth shop in the city belongs to our Wu family."
When he said this, Yuan Suifeng knew. The Wu Family Fabric Shop was indeed quite famous, and eight of their silks were presented to the royal family as tribute.
Although I don’t understand why the Wu family is also interested in the white sugar recipe, the Yuan family will definitely not do business with him.
Yuan Suifeng said: "You go back, our white sugar recipe has been sold, and we will not sell it to the second family."
Wu Xiuming's face was shocked. He could no longer maintain his posture, and his voice was raised, "Who did you sell to?"
Regarding this, the Mo family did not ask for confidentiality. After all, when the Mo family sells white sugar in large quantities, everyone will know about it.
"The Mo family."
With that said, Yuan Suifeng closed the door.
Wu Xiuming clutched the fan tightly, and it turned out to be the Mo family! Although the Mo family's main business does not overlap with that of the Wu family, the two families had bad blood over the dispute over a hot spring land twenty years ago.
They opened a restaurant together by chance, and as they competed with each other, they became increasingly dissatisfied with each other.
Especially now both companies are competing for the title of the richest businessman.
This white sugar recipe fell into the hands of the Mo family, which could be said to be the worst news he had ever heard. It directly overturned their original plan.
His servant looked at Wu Xiuming anxiously, "Master, what should we do?"
Wu Xiuming's face was dark, and he had no intention of flirting with the little girl for the time being. The door of Yuan's house was closed, and he couldn't even see anyone, let alone seduce the little girl.
"Go back to the restaurant first, ask for more information, and then make a long-term plan." He gritted his teeth and said.
…
Zhang Xinghua was extremely anxious when she saw her beloved left without even entering the Yuan family's gate.
After Wu Xiuming left, she hurriedly knocked on Yuan's door. Yuan Suifeng thought it was because Wu Xiuming was determined not to give up, and said impatiently: "I told you that the white sugar recipe has been sold, why are you still here?"
—Hey, it’s you, Xinghua.”
Zhang Xinghua couldn't wait to ask Yuan Suifeng, "Who was that person just now? He was so impressive."
If you can buy a recipe for white sugar, you will be considered a rich person.
Yuan Suifeng said casually: "The rich businessman over there in the state capital has a surname of Wu."
A dreamy expression appeared on Zhang Xinghua's face. The wealthy businessmen in the state capital must be very rich. She wanted to ask more questions, but Yuan Suifeng had already closed the door.
Zhang Xinghua stamped her feet, wondering if she should please Su Yueling and lend her some clothes. Su Yueling's clothes were made of silk and satin, and they were very new. They looked good when she wore them, and they might look as good as Su Yueling.
But Zhang Xinghua was still not happy to ask Zhang Xinghua to borrow it herself. If she borrowed it from Yuan Baoshu, she would be fine with being thin-skinned. But her body shape was quite different from Yuan Baoshu's, and she couldn't fit into Yuan Baoshu's clothes.
Zhang Xinghua simply looked for Su Yuewei, and said to Su Yuewei in a soft tone: "Good sister-in-law, can you help me borrow two sets of clothes from Su Yueling that she usually wears? Just lend them to me for two days."
Su Yuewei was naturally not happy. It would be even more uncomfortable for her to be humble to Su Yueling than to kill her. Of course, she did not refuse directly, but frowned and said: "Yue Ling has misunderstood me now. I'm afraid it will be harder for me to borrow than for you."
."
Zhang Xinghua said: "You are also relatives after all, so there is no need to have an overnight feud. If you say a few nice words, she will definitely agree to you. I won't borrow it for a few days. I will borrow it for a few days and then return it to her. I won't damage it."
Of clothes.”
"It's a rare time for me to beg you. You won't even agree to this request, right?"
"If you don't even want to help with this little thing, if I get married well in the future, I won't even think about helping you."
When Su Yuewei heard this, she recalled Zhang Xinghua's reaction when she saw the man just now, and couldn't help but said, "Who was that man just now?"
Zhang Xinghua said: "The rich businessman from the state capital came here to buy the white sugar formula." She muttered, "This Yuan family really doesn't treat guests well. People come from all the way and won't even let them drink tea.
, directly shutting down the door.”
"If it were our family, we would be well served by tea." She would also personally make tea for the young man.
White sugar……
Thinking of someone coming all the way from the state capital to buy her recipe, Su Yuewei felt as if she was being bitten by thousands of ants. Su Yueling must have made a lot of money this time. I heard that she was even planning to spend money to hire someone.
Let’s design a house. Isn’t that what a house is? It’s just a house, can it go to heaven? She just wants to show off that she is rich.
Comparing it to my own penny, I wish I could break it into two penny and use it...
The villagers who were about to start work in the village changed their previous tone and praised her full of praises. In sharp contrast to Su Yueling, her current reputation is much worse. Many people say that she is fake and virtuous.
Things have been going badly recently, and Su Yueling continues to arouse her. Su Yuewei suddenly became jealous. She looked at Xinghua... Zhang Xinghua's stature is not much different from Su Yueling. If she puts on Su Yueling's clothes, it will get on her
Hair accessories, if you look at her back, you might mistake her for Su Yueling.
Su Yuewei had a plan in mind, she showed a gentle smile and said to Zhang Xinghua: "Xinghua is doing it for the young master just now, right?"
Zhang Xinghua blushed, "No, I just think I've reached the age where I should dress up."
There was a smile on Su Yuewei's lips, "You have reached the age of seeing each other. My sister-in-law will help you go to the city to inquire about the young master in the next few days. Even if it costs me my face, I will have to help you borrow the clothes.
Then I will learn from Baoshu how to comb her hair and help you dress up properly."
