In the afternoon, Mu Siyu played backgammon with Lu Shaoyu. Ziyuan came in from outside and reported, "Miss Shen wants to see you."
Mu Siyu put back the chess pieces and said to Lu Shaoyu: "If I don't play anymore, I will lose to you every time."
Lu Shaoyu put away the chess pieces and found another place to read.
When Shen Shenjun came in, he saw the little boy sitting in front of the window.
From the profile, the little boy looks like his father.
"Boss Mu, how are you?" Shen Shenjun was followed by Qiu Shui, who was carrying large and small bags.
"Thank you, Miss Shen, for your concern. Apart from the pain in the injured area and the inability to get out of bed and the doctor saying that I need to rest for a while, there are no other problems."
Shen Shenjun seemed unable to hear the dissatisfaction in her words, and sat down beside her bed: "It was our negligence that caused you to be injured like this. You were in a hurry yesterday, so I prepared a lot of medicinal materials and delivered them here today.
.Look at what you can use, and remember to use it when the time comes. In addition, I also want to apologize to Boss Mu. Today I found out that it was the housekeeper who adjusted the design of the bookshelf on his own initiative. I am really sorry."
"Did the butler make his own decision?"
"Yes! When my grandfather got angry, he betrayed him."
"That's really a pity. Couldn't your Jiang Mansion be unable to find such a suitable housekeeper?"
"It's really hard to find a housekeeper, but you can train him with a little time. No matter what he did wrong, we in Jiang Mansion cannot treat it as if it didn't happen. This is the consequence that he should bear."
"The Jiang Mansion really has clear rewards and punishments."
Qiushui handed the things to Ziyuan.
"Sister, the medicinal materials we brought here are all top-notch and need to be preserved well. If they are not preserved well, they will easily lose their efficacy. For example, this century-old ginseng must be stored in a special box for storing ginseng..."
Ziyuan listened quietly and smiled. After Qiu Shui finished speaking, Ziyuan said, "Don't worry, sister. The century-old ginseng is easy to store. There are storage boxes in the store. I will just buy one."
"I am a lively girl. She chatters all day long, which makes Boss Mu laugh." Shen Shenjun said.
"Since you know it's a joke, you should discipline it properly instead of embarrassing yourself outside." Lu Shaoyu, who had been silent for a long time, closed the book and said impatiently: "My mother was implicated by your Jiang family and was seriously injured and needs to rest.
If there is nothing important, you can leave."
"Shaoyu." Mu Siyu said in a disapproving tone: "Mom knows that you like to be quiet. If you want to be quiet and read, you can go back to your study. How can you talk to a guest like this?"
After training Lu Shaoyu, he said to Shen Shenjun: "My child is straight-tempered, don't argue with him. Speaking of which, it's his father's fault for pampering him so much that he will cry sometimes in the future."
"How could it be? The young master looks like an ordinary thing." Shen Shenjun pinched his palms and looked bad. "I don't want to bother you anymore. I'll see Madam some other time."
"Okay." Mu Siyu smiled.
Ziyuan sent the master and servant away.
Lu Shaoyu curled his lips: "That woman is not interested in drinking. Why are you so big-hearted? You still leave her here to talk about this. Are you going to regret it after she gets entangled with my father?"
"Why do you have so many thoughts at such a young age?" Mu Siyu ate grapes. "If your father has intentions, I can't prevent him. Miss Shen's grandfather is Mr. Jiang, who is a big shot in the capital. If your father
If you fall in love with him, your career in the officialdom will be like a meteor, and you will probably become the best among the young generation. Most ambitious men will choose this shortcut, not to mention that Miss Shen is pretty good-looking."
"You know that you dare to let her go to my father?" Lu Shaoyu was dissatisfied: "Are you so confident in my father's feelings?"
"I have confidence in myself." Mu Siyu looked at Lu Shaoyu: "Baby, my mother will teach you a word, never leave your destiny in the hands of others, no matter how important that person is to you.
The only person in this world who can influence your life is yourself. Your father and I are loving husband and wife. We rely on him and believe in him. These are the qualities that a wife should have. However, if he fails me, I must have something I can afford to lose.
Chips.”
Lu Yi stood outside the door, listening to the woman inside speaking some words he had never heard before.
He walked to the window and looked at her confident face from the window.
She was different from other women in this world. She had perseverance in her eyes, and she could act coquettishly and cutely like ordinary women, making him soft-hearted.
Well, I was worried that she would be bullied by Shen Shenjun, but now it seems that it’s good that she doesn’t bully others.
Mu Siyu asked Ziyuan to sort out the things sent by Shen Sijun.
The medicinal materials have been verified by Dr. Zhu to be good. There is also a box of silver, which adds up to two hundred taels.
"I just returned to Hubei City and heard that you had a hole in your head. Let me see if it can be repaired?" Zheng Shuyu smiled and came over to look at her injury.
"Is there a sister like you?" Mu Siyu pushed away her clutches: "Why are you back this time?"
"To be honest, Suzhou City is indeed a good place to do business, but it is several days' journey from Hubei City, and communication is too inconvenient." Zheng Shuyu asked Zisu to pour water.
Zi Su poured a glass of water over.
After Zheng Shuyu took a few sips, he said: "Our business has been getting better and better recently. Now I have a big order. I don't know whether I should take it. I still want to come back and ask you, and I will pay my mother's grave by the way."
"What big order?"
"Prince Zhong, you know that, right?"
"Know."
Why are you involved with that loyal king again?
Could it be that the big deal Zheng Shuyu mentioned was related to him?
"Prince Zhong wants to build a villa, which is a big project. The other party found me and wanted our family to be responsible for the boxes and cabinets inside." Zheng Shuyu said: "Do you know how big it is? We have definitely never seen it before.
The great and loyal Prince is considered the local emperor here, and the one in the capital doesn’t care about him."
"You have been in Suzhou City for so long. Don't you know Prince Zhong's temperament? Haven't you heard of his bad reputation? Who gave you the courage to bring your business to Prince Zhong's Mansion? Forget it, I am timid.
Don’t dare to answer.”
"Oh, Prince Zhong is not responsible for this kind of thing personally, but the people under him are responsible for it. I have a good relationship with the second steward of Prince Zhong's Mansion, and this is an opportunity that I finally won."
Mu Siyu saw Zheng Shuyu in high spirits and gained a new understanding of her.
She thought she already loved money, but she didn't expect to meet someone who wanted money rather than his life.
She has a shadow towards Prince Zhong and really doesn't want to have anything to do with him.
"Let me tell you, if we accept this order, we will most likely earn tens of thousands of taels of silver." Zheng Shuyu threw out another bait.
Mu Siyu: "..."
She really got to know her better and better.
Tens of thousands of taels of silver?
"My husband and I will discuss this." Mu Siyu said, "You should finish your affairs first and then talk about it."
