"It's a coincidence. Originally, before I took control of these shops, their business was so poor that they couldn't continue..."
"Who would have thought that a person like me, who has never been involved in business before, would run the shop so well?"
Su Nianyun said with some pride, "The old lady said that I have some financial luck, so I am now in charge of the Chen family's shop."
"That's right," Chunhua next to him agreed, "Princess, in just two months, the shop has made a lot of money..."
"So, the return gift the princess gave us from the Qin Mansion this time was all bought with the money earned from the shop?"
Qin Wan felt envious after hearing this.
The Qin family also has some business, but it is only a little better than the Chen family shop before.
Now seeing that Su Nianyun had made a lot of money from a few half-dead shops, Qin Wan couldn't tell how she felt.
She appears to be well-behaved and obedient, but in reality she is ambitious, proud and domineering.
Looking at the place where the princess lived and hearing that the princess had made so much money, her ambition suddenly arose. She felt that if she were to handle those shops, she would definitely be no worse than Su Nianyun.
Just as he was thinking about it, Su Nianyun asked Chunhua to bring the meeting gift, a set of fine rouge gouache with jade-faced agar-agar.
"This is..." Qin Wan took a breath, "Is this the rouge gouache from the recently opened jade-faced agar, which is better than peach blossom noodles?"
"Yes." Su Nianyun nodded, "I didn't know you were coming in advance, so I used this as a gift for you. I wonder if Miss Wan likes it?"
"I really like it!"
Qin Wan said, "Jade-faced agar-agar products are expensive and hard to buy. Every day, families line up early to buy them. My servant went there several times but couldn't get it."
"Princess, you are so amazing!"
"How can I be so powerful? I am just the adopted daughter of the Queen Mother. My status is not as good as those serious princesses and daughters of aristocratic families. All I have is the money I earn. The so-called money can only make people go around."
Su Nianyun didn't care about Qin Wan's praise at all, "I may not be able to buy the jade-faced agar-agar items at the original price, but what if I pay twice, three times, or four times the price?"
"As long as I have enough money, someone will always buy it for me."
Qin Wan was greatly shocked after hearing Su Nianyun's straightforward words.
She was also moved by this kind of life.
"By the way," Su Nianyun changed the topic at the end, "You came today. Have the two families settled the marriage?"
"Marriage, what marriage?" Qin Wan was stunned for a moment.
"Ah, it turns out you don't know anything yet. It seems I'm too talkative." Su Nianyun was also a little surprised by Qin Wan's reaction.
"Princess, what kind of marriage is this?"
"Anyway, I've spilled the beans, so I'll tell you so that you can be mentally prepared."
Su Nianyun said mysteriously, "I heard that the old lady intends to marry you as the second master's wife. What do you think?"
"Second Master? Chen Shaokang?" Qin Wan frowned.
If she remembered correctly, that guy was famous in the capital a while ago. He plagiarized other people's poems and showed them off at poetry gatherings, but was caught on the spot.
Does the family want her to marry that guy?
How is it possible?
She won't fall in love with that guy.
When Feng Feng Huohuo left Tingfeng Courtyard, she was going to find the old lady to explain the matter, that is, she would not marry.
Not wanting to walk to the corner of a courtyard wall, she suddenly spotted two entangled figures.
"Second Master, don't do this. It's not good for people to see you in broad daylight!" A woman's charming voice said.
The man said, "What's wrong? It's just a coincidence that someone saw it, so I don't have to go out of my way to publicize it. You are mine!"
"Second Master..." the woman said coyly, "Did you know that the old lady is going to be your first wife today? If you do this, what will the second lady who comes in the future think?"
"What do you think? I don't care what she thinks, I tell you, in my eyes, you Bai He is the most beautiful!"
"Second Master, Bai He is not as beautiful as you said."
"Second Master said you are a peerless beauty, but you are just like Qin Wan, that little girl with no hair. How can you compare with you?"
"The Qin family told mother that as long as Qin Wan agrees to the marriage, she will never stop her."
The man's voice became rougher, "She'd better not agree to the marriage the old lady said, otherwise I will definitely come to her and cancel the marriage."
With that said, Chen Shaokang launched an attack on Bai He, and the two quickly became sticky together.
Seeing this scene of violent blood, Qin Wan's face changed.
The face of the little girl next to her changed. "Miss, this is too much. This girl dares to seduce Mr. Chen in broad daylight. This servant comes forward..."
"Wait a minute," Qin Wan stopped the little girl, "This is the Chen family's yard, it's not our turn to take care of it yet!"
"But, for them to do it in broad daylight is too...excessive!" the little girl said excitedly.
Qin Wan secretly clenched her fists.
What did Chen Shaokang say? He said that she was not as beautiful as a girl, so she would not marry him even if she died?
Okay, she asked him to see how he would die if she agreed to marry him!
When she met the old lady, she returned to being well-behaved and greeted the old lady with greetings.
The old lady's anger because she went to Tingfengyuan first dissipated.
"You must be hungry too, let's get ready to eat now!"
Qin Wan nodded.
While waiting for the banquet to begin, she saw the girl named Bai He serving the food, and she couldn't help but take a few more glances.
The old lady enthusiastically served Qin Wan food while asking about the situation in the Qin Mansion.
Qin Wan replied one by one.
Outside, Qin Wan was a gentle and virtuous lady, and she was respectful to the old lady, who was very satisfied with her.
Sure enough, Butler Qin was right, Qin Wan was completely suitable to be Kang'er's wife.
In order to ensure the stability of the marriage, she did not immediately ask Qin Wan for her opinion. Instead, she invited her to come to the Chen Mansion the next day to see if she had any feelings of rejection towards the Chen Mansion.
Seeing Qin Wan, she nodded in agreement. The old lady was very happy and thought that the marriage was more than half done.
When Qin Wan left the Chen Mansion, it was Bai He who escorted their master and servant out.
"Miss Wan, please walk slowly. You are welcome to come back tomorrow..."
"You don't have to be hypocritical with me." Qin Wan ruthlessly exposed her hypocrisy.
"Ah? Miss Wan, what did you say?" Bai He was puzzled.
"You are having an affair with Chen Shaokang, so you don't want me to marry you at all, right?"
Bai He's expression changed. How did Qin Wan know this? She obviously didn't say or do anything.
How did she know?
"You don't have to pretend to be innocent in front of me. I'm not a man and I won't do this!"
Qin Wan's face was cold, "I'm just telling you, I will definitely get back the humiliation you gave me today!"
"Miss Wan, have you misunderstood something? I really didn't..."
Qin Wan no longer listened to Bai He's explanation and walked away.
Bai He's face looked completely ugly now.
In the end, how did Qin Wan know about her relationship with the second master?
Could it be Butler Qin?
Yes, it was only him. He was from the Qin family, and he hated himself to the core.
Thinking of this, she walked towards the Qin family's room angrily, trying to reason with him.
But Xia Yue and Su San, who looked at her angry back, covered their mouths and smiled.
The scene Qin Wan saw just now was just a play performed by Su San and Xia Yue.
