Zi Su has a straightforward temperament and will ask questions directly.
"Why doesn't Madam agree? According to her, it will be a great thing for you!"
Before Mu Siyu could speak, Ziyuan retorted: "A profit of one hundred thousand? Whose responsibility is it if there is a loss?"
"Let's not talk about losses or not, but let's talk about whether taking over this business will be of any benefit to me." Mu Siyu said, "Am I busy now?"
"She's so busy! Madam is almost as busy as the master."
"I'm so busy and can't finish the things I'm doing, why should I take over this mess?"
"If I make money, my wife only needs to pay a little attention to get a large sum of money. Isn't this great?"
"Even if the rouge shop she opens makes a fortune every day, I won't agree to it. While I'm free now, I'll give you a test. Why do you think she chose me as her partner?"
Ziyuan said: "We are all women, and Madam has saved her, so she has instinctive trust in you."
Zisu then guessed: "She is a widow now, and the people of the You family are watching her all day long. As long as she makes the slightest mistake, the property will fall into the hands of the side branches. She wants to find my wife as a backer."
Mu Siyu looked at Zisu with surprised eyes: "I've been looking at you with admiration for three days. You can actually think of such a profound meaning."
Ziyuan also gave a thumbs up to Zisu.
Zisu giggled.
Mu Siyu continued the previous topic and said: "I am the county magistrate's wife and the president of the Chamber of Commerce. If I participate in the management of her store, do you think her business will be worse if I am a living sign?"
Both Zisu and Ziyuan looked suddenly enlightened.
"I used to think she was quite simple, but I didn't expect her to be so smart."
"No matter how naive a person is, after experiencing so many things, he will know how to strategize for himself and his children, and how to survive in this world."
"Since Madam is so sympathetic to her, you might as well help her out," Zi Su said.
Mu Siyu shook her head: "First of all, I don't know her level, whether she is serious about opening a store or just joking, and what is the plan for the entire store. If she is really ready, she should be prepared when she comes to see me today.
Even if there is no such plan, she should tell me her thoughts, so that I might have a chance of agreeing. However, after I rejected her, she gave up quickly, which shows that she was not prepared."
"In addition, I have a strange feeling about her. Although her brother and brother-in-law have a good relationship, she had a good relationship with him at the beginning. But now that the two of them have such status, she should avoid suspicion. But every time
Whenever she had any difficulties, she always kept her brother-in-law busy. The strangest thing was that it was not her who took the initiative to invite him, but her brother-in-law who happened to hear that something was wrong with her every time and hurried over to help.
"
"Madam, you mean that she is plotting against the second master?" Ziyuan said.
"There is no evidence, and I don't know if it is my illusion. But a woman's intuition is a very strange thing, especially a business woman like me, who is always more vigilant than the average person."
"Listening to what Madam said, I also think she is not simple. If the Second Master comes back, Madam should remind him to prevent him from getting into trouble."
"Second Master is preparing for the scientific examination in the capital. What do you mean when Second Master comes back, do you want him to fail?" Ziyuan said angrily, "If Second Master passes the exam, he will have to wait for arrangements from the staff.
"
The Zhou family's banquet was held in their new house.
All the reputable people in Hubei City went there.
As a representative of women and the president of the Chamber of Commerce, Mu Siyu was surrounded by the wives of various families. All kinds of attentiveness and flattery were performed in front of her, and there was no one who treated her strangely.
"Master Fan, have you drunk too much?"
At the wine table, Fan Yu was lying there, and the lady next to her pushed her.
Seeing this, Mu Siyu said, "Master Fan is not a good drinker. Did she bring anyone here? If not, I will arrange for someone to send her back first."
"How about we arrange for Boss Fan to rest in the wing in the backyard first?" Zhou Fugui's wife, Feng Shi, said.
"She's drunk like this, so let her go back first!" Mu Siyu said, "I brought a few nursing homes here, and I can just leave it to them to send Master Fan off."
When Fan Yu came here, he also came on Mu Siyu's carriage. Now Mu Siyu sent her back with his own people, and it would not be too late to pick her up after she returns.
There was no problem with this arrangement, but not long after, the people who sent Fan Yu home hurried back and told Mu Siyu that they met a masked man on the way, and that man kidnapped Master Fan.
"How could this happen?" Everyone at the banquet was nervous.
"Have you reported to the official?" Mu Siyu asked.
"Reported." The nurse said, "My subordinates have arranged for someone to report it to the official."
The banquet ended like this.
After what happened, no one was in the mood to eat anymore. Besides, a woman was kidnapped. The other women couldn't help but worry, so they should go home first!
In Lu Yi's absence, Gao Yayi and Xia Kun were taken away. Among the people who are now staying in Hubei City, the one with the highest position is Wen Wensong.
Wen Wensong had rested, but the night watchman rushed to his house and woke him up. When he heard that the incident was related to Mu Siyu, he was so frightened that he lost any sleepiness, and he immediately corrected his attitude and searched for the fugitive.
"Madam, do you mean to say that the man came for you, that he mistook Master Fan for you, so he took her away?" Wen Wensong asked.
"The carriage belongs to my family, and I also arranged the escort. If it is not for me, I don't even believe it myself. The escort I arranged is very good, but he said that the person's lightness is very good, like a gust of wind.
Yes, he disappeared in the blink of an eye. Now that the city gate is closed, that person must be in the city. If the city is searched, the people in the city will definitely be disturbed. You have solved many cases, is there any way to lure him out?
"
"If he came for Madam, he must be hiding in the dark to see our Yamen's reaction. Think about it, if he wanted to kill someone, he could just kill him in the carriage. Why bother to take him away? In other words, temporarily prevent
The master is safe. Now as long as he finds out that the one he captured is not Madam, but that Madam is still outside and is fine, he will definitely target Madam again... The consequence of this is that Madam will be in danger."
"I'm not afraid of danger. I just want to lure the snake out of the hole and rescue Master Fan. She is suffering for me, and I don't want anything to happen to her."
In the ruined temple, a man threw the woman on his shoulders heavily to the ground, then picked up weeds from the side and raised the fire.
Fan Yu was originally drunk, but after being so frightened, his mind became clearer.
She shrank back and huddled in the corner looking at the big man with stubble on his face.
