In the pavilion, the man inserted a gold hairpin into the girl's hair and recited a poem to her, which made the girl shyly look at him with affection.
The two of them were in love with each other. If they didn't know it, they would have thought that they were an unmarried couple, but...
Mu Siyu looked at Chu Ningzhu beside her.
Chu Ningzhu's elegant face was calm and calm, but the maid behind her was furious.
"Miss, young Prince Jun has gone too far. You are engaged to him, but he is still provoking the second lady. Your relationship with the second lady was not good in the first place, and now he is targeting you everywhere, as if you have robbed her of her marriage.
"
"Young Prince Jun is a famous romantic talent in the capital. Even if she wasn't there, there would be someone else. If he were smart, he would be able to see through his plans at a glance. If she is stupid, what can I complain about?"
After Chu Ningzhu finished speaking, she looked at Mu Siyu with a look of embarrassment on her face.
"Sister, I originally wanted to take you out for some fresh air and talk to you intimately, but unexpectedly I let you see these scandalous things. However, sister is not an ordinary woman, and she must be able to understand that we people can't help ourselves."
"You said you brought me to enjoy the flowers, but I only saw the spring scenery in the garden, and nothing else." Mu Siyu said, "Can your body bear it? I just saw a lake over there, and there is a lake beside it.
Pavilion, do you want to sit there for a while?”
"good."
The Duke of Chu's mansion was huge, and I saw many servants along the way. Of course, wherever there were people, there were disputes, and I also saw all kinds of intrigues. In a short period of time, Chu Ningzhu saved a man who was almost beaten to death by being slapped.
A maid with a pig head, a servant who was unjustly accused of stealing his master's things, and a gardener who cut off the second lady's favorite orchid and almost had both of his hands broken.
In the pavilion, Chu Ningzhu invited Mu Siyu to taste snacks and fragrant tea without mentioning what happened just now.
Mu Siyu told her about the changes in Hubei City in recent times, which made the sadness in Chu Ningzhu's eyebrows disappear. Even the maid behind her became interested in Hubei City.
"I spent a very good time in Hubei City." Chu Ningzhu said with a happy look on her face. "But sister, if you come to the capital, what will happen to everything in Hubei City? Are you willing to give up?"
"Business must continue. The amusement park has consumed so much of our energy and investment. We definitely cannot give up like this. I plan to leave it all to Shuyu." Mu Siyu said, "As for the position of president of the Chamber of Commerce, I
I think the Qin family is good, we will hold a meeting to discuss it then, and if there are no accidents, we will hand it over to Shaodong Qin’s family."
"Miss, Miss Su is here."
The maid came over and said to Chu Ningzhu.
Chu Ningzhu smiled and said: "Invite her over!"
"Since you have guests..."
"Sister, just sit down." Chu Ningzhu said softly, "Su Zhiliu has been my little sister for many years. She is a cheerful and unrestrained woman. If you know her, you will definitely hit it off."
The servant brought over a well-dressed girl.
The girl is dressed cheerfully in both male and female styles, with a soft whip stuck to her waist. Her ponytail is tied high, and her brows are full of heroism. It looks like she has a cheerful temperament.
"I heard that you are sick, how are you?" Su Zhiliu walked into the pavilion and threw a bottle to Chu Ningzhu, "This is a pill I got from my grandpa. It is said to be miraculous in treating wind and cold. You can try it.
.”
"I don't have wind-chill syndrome, so this medicine is useless to me, but thanks, I'll keep it for now, I'll need it later." Chu Ningzhu said, "Let me introduce to you, this is Sister Mu whom I often mention.
The wife of Mr. Lu, the magistrate of Hubeicheng County."
Su Zhiliu looked at Mu Siyu: "Are you that business prodigy in Hubei City?"
"Is this how Ningzhu introduced me?" Mu Siyu smiled lightly, "I can't be called a business prodigy. She just likes to make money, so she has a lot of thoughts."
"Ningzhu said that the amusement park you built is very interesting. Although I have never seen it, the way she described it is indeed fresh. I will pass by Hubei City in the afternoon and I must go and experience it."
"Okay, I'll give you a membership card with a 50% discount." Mu Siyu said.
"No, I'm not short of money." Su Zhiliu waved his hand grandly, as if this little money was nothing to me.
"There are fifty kinds of activities in the amusement park. Even if half of them are for children, the remaining half is enough for you to enjoy. Plus there are many delicious foods in it. Even if you try them next to each other, the 50% discount will be a lot cheaper.
It’s a lot of money. Of course, the biggest function of the membership card is not these. It can save a lot of time in queuing.” Chu Ningzhu explained the fun process to Su Zhiliu in detail.
"The passage is quite interesting." Su Zhiliu pinched his chin, "It can be used for business."
"Your shops are suffering huge losses, so you might as well sell them." Chu Ningzhu teased.
"That's the dowry shop left by my mother. Even if I put money into it, I can't possibly sell it." Su Zhiliu snorted coldly.
"There is a ready-made business prodigy here. Why don't you ask Sister Mu if there is a way to bring her back to life?"
"What does the shop sell?" Mu Siyu asked, "No matter what business you do, the quality of the goods is the first priority, followed by some business skills."
"I have an orchard at home, and the shop sells fruits."
"Fruit is a rare thing. Except for the rich, ordinary people may not be able to afford it. If the fruit can be made into dried fruit or candied fruit, it can be used as daily snacks."
"I've also made dried fruits, it's nothing unusual. The taste is not as sweet and juicy as the fruits."
"Then it depends on how to make it. I'll write you a few recipes. You can make it according to the above and try it. If it tastes good, then make some for trial sale."
When it came to making delicious food, several people became interested. Later, they simply went to the kitchen to make fruit and potato chips.
When Mu Siyu made her first fruit potato chips, Chu Ningqiu and Su Zhiliu were full of praise. She casually mentioned other things that could be made into such potato chips, such as potatoes and shrimps.
Su Zhiliu was a resolute person and immediately arranged for his servants to buy other ingredients.
Several people ate all kinds of potato chips that day and lost their appetite. Later, Mu Siyu squeezed delicious juice to relieve the tiredness, and then she felt better.
By the time they separated, Su Zhiliu and Mu Siyu had already had a good conversation and agreed to play with her next time. Mu Siyu liked her personality and was willing to make friends with her.
"Zhi Liu's family is also a military commander. Unlike my family, which is protected by our ancestors, her family has real power. Her temperament has always been like this, and other ladies do not like her style, so not many people are good friends with her.
If you like my sister, you can ask her for help if you have any trouble. She is also a very famous person in the capital, and even the princess has to give her some face."
"Ningzhu, thank you." Mu Siyu understood Chu Ningzhu's good intention of connecting them. "When you are well, I will cook you the food you like and come to our house to play."
