Chapter 10 Give me a smile

"Qiao Guishuang, don't gloat about others' misfortunes!" Mrs. Zheng glared at Mrs. Hou.

Mrs. Hou raised the corners of her lips: "Do I have it?"

"Oh, do you know it yourself?"

Thinking that people from the Hou Mansion were still watching the show, and that a high-end VIP card could be obtained by spending at least five hundred taels of silver, Mrs. Zheng had no choice but to hold back her temper and said to the middle-aged man, "Then I will apply for another one now."

The middle-aged man shook his head: "Sorry, we can't accept it for you."

Zheng Yanyan said bitterly: "Why! What do you mean? Is your shopkeeper determined to offend the Shangshu Mansion?"

The middle-aged man sighed: "I don't know what our shopkeeper means. Please don't make it difficult for me."

"Mrs. Zheng, Miss Zheng, please come this way."

Mrs. Zheng asked again at the end: "Do you really want to ask us to leave? Are you sure you have thought about it?"

Her tone was full of threats.

Madam Hou said to the side: "Don't be afraid of her. Isn't it possible for the Shangshu Mansion to avenge a private vendetta?"

What's more, Yunyan Pavilion is probably not afraid of private revenge by the Shang Shufu. Otherwise, it would not be able to defeat other time-honored big banks and quickly establish itself as a new star in the capital.

It's just that Mrs. Hou still doesn't know.

Yunyan Pavilion has to pay a large sum of money every year to replenish the national treasury. The person who is least happy about Yunyan Pavilion's collapse, apart from the man behind the scenes, is the emperor.

The middle-aged man still said the same thing: "Everything is what our shopkeeper wants."

He is just an errand boy.

Mrs. Zheng said "good" several times.

Now that we have said this, what else can we do?

"Yanyan, let's go."

Zheng Yanyan stamped her feet and glared at Jiang Sheng before leaving.

Although Mrs. Zheng felt embarrassed and angry, her rationality was still there.

She thought about what Jiang Xian had just said and frowned.

——Is it a coincidence? How could a country girl have such great abilities?

And from beginning to end, Jiang Xian was playing with her ears as if no one else was around.

Jiang Sheng could probably guess why.

Do you mean big brother sister?

She felt relaxed and a little aching at the same time.

He was able to raise the price of the flower mother-in-law to half a hundred taels of silver right away. In addition, Zheng Yanyan had originally asked someone to wrap it up, so it was at least two hundred taels.

In this dynasty, when ordinary people only had a few taels of silver a year for food, this was a huge sum of money!

Just let it go!

Jiang Sheng frowned.

Jiang Xian raised his eyes and asked, "What? Are you unhappy?"

"Ah?" Jiang Sheng had an inexplicable feeling that he had been tricked by the overbearing president.

[Since she snatched your things, I took them away for you, why don’t you give me a smile? 】

Jiang Sheng was happy: "No, no."

Not unhappy.

Jiang Xian said: "Then you just chose the top spot but it was taken away. Why don't you go and look at it again?"

Mrs. Hou agreed: "Shengsheng, go and have a look. If you think the one that the Zheng family has used is dirty, change it to another one."

"It's true that evil people will be punished. They won't spare anyone with their mouths or hands." The more Mrs. Hou thought about it, the happier she became. "It's better to kick out guests like the Zheng family! Otherwise, business will be hindered."

Jiang Sheng wanted to say - Actually, mother, you are the same.

But she remained silent and just said: "...let's go see something else."

"Let's go, let's go."

Mrs. Hou thought of something and said to the middle-aged man: "By the way, thank you."

"Don't worry, I'll tell your shopkeeper later that I will come to Yunyan Pavilion often and I won't let you lose money just because you lost a customer from the Zheng family!"

The middle-aged man's smile did not change: "Thank you madam. You and the two girls can choose, and I will go down first."

"good."

…

Finally, Mrs. Hou bought a set of hairdressing for herself, a butterfly tassel walking wave and white jade earrings for Jiang Sheng, a white jade hairpin and a silver bracelet engraved with peony patterns for Jiang Xian, and customized them for each of them.

After a few sets of clothes, I returned home satisfied.

"Master Hou, why did you come back early?"

As soon as they got off the sedan, they found Jiang Pinghou Jiang Zeren standing outside the door waiting with a smile.

The Marquis is very busy. Jiang Shengchuan has been here for several days. This is the first time he has officially met him.

The Marquis saw Jiang Sheng: "Is Sheng Sheng feeling better? Is there anything else that feels uncomfortable?"

Jiang Sheng smiled: "It's much better. Mother even took us to buy jewelry and clothes."

"It's time to buy something. The Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet will be held in a few days." The Marquis noticed Jiang Xian and said, "Xianxian has gone too? But have you bought anything? The little girl usually wears more colorful clothes and doesn't have enough money.

Just ask your mother."

Jiang Sheng was a little relieved.

It seems that as long as there is no instigation from her, Mr. Jiang is still sensible.

Seeing Jiang Xian just say "hmm", Mr. Jiang didn't care and just asked them to come in quickly: "Yan'er will be back soon, let's have a reunion dinner tonight."

The "Yan'er" in Mr. Jiang's mouth is named Jiang Yan. He is the youngest son of Mr. and Mrs. Hou, aged fourteen.

"Yan'er is coming back?" Mrs. Hou was overjoyed, and then complained, "It's all up to you to talk about going to the Ministry of Punishments to exercise. I haven't seen him in the past ten years."

Mr. Hou put his arm around Mrs. Hou's shoulders and walked over: "Boys, it is always good to exercise more."

There was one thing they didn't say.

——After all, the position of heir apparent must be given to someone else. As parents, they naturally want to find a good place for their son.

When they parted, Mrs. Hou told Jiang Sheng: "Remember to come to mother's yard for dinner in the evening."

"good."

Seeing Lord Jiang looking at her, Mrs. Hou said to Jiang Xian, "You come too."

"I won't go." After Jiang Xian said that, she walked towards her yard. The hem of her skirt was slightly raised by the wind, and then hit the gravel ground.

Mrs. Hou was about to get angry, Jiang Sheng hurriedly said: "I'll call my sister."

Jiang Sheng chased after him.

Mr. Jiang Hou looked at the backs of the two sisters and turned his head to blame Mrs. Hou: "You don't know where your heart is going."

Mrs. Hou muttered: "Can you blame me? Look at how Jiang Xian is doing, and then look at how our Shengsheng is doing."

"You just don't have any intentions towards her."

"I……"

Mr. Hou and Mrs. Hou talked while walking.

"I know you think Shengsheng was raised by you, but Xianxian also suffered so much. She finally returned home and her biological mother didn't like her. What do you think of her?" Mr. Hou sighed, "As long as you

If you treat her with some care, she won't be so indifferent."

Mrs. Hou frowned: "What about Shengsheng? You don't know what the outside world says about Shengsheng. They all say that we have abandoned her..."

Mr. Hou patted Mrs. Hou on the back of her hand and said: "The two daughters have a bowl of water. They will be married off in the future. They will be sixteen after the New Year. How many more years can they dazzle in front of you?"

Mrs. Hou pursed her lips.

"There are also Jiang Yan and Yan'er."

"Today's family dinner, let's call Jiang Yan. He is the prince after all."

When Mrs. Hou mentioned this, she blamed Mr. Hou: "I couldn't give birth at the beginning, and you wanted to bring Jiang Yan and I had nothing to say. What will Yan'er do now?"

The Marquis disagreed: "Are you asking Your Majesty to dethrone the Crown Prince? Jiang Yan has done nothing wrong and has a good temper. Don't mention this again."

Doesn't he want to dethrone the crown prince? He just wants the title to be given to a sideline son who has almost nothing to do with it, instead of giving it to his own son?

But if he was asked to open his mouth to mention it, he really couldn't.
