Chapter 111 Miss Yuwan

"Madam, just now...just now was an accident!"

Nangong Hua wanted to bite off his tongue at this moment!

He is such a bad mouth!

Don’t speak when you should, and talk nonsense when you shouldn’t!

No good words fell into the lady's ears, but one bad word was heard!

"Oh?" Pu Qiongzhi raised her eyebrows with an unclear attitude.

She did it on purpose.

This method is usually used when negotiating business with a partner shop.

If she doesn't express her attitude, the other party will lower the price!

Nangong Hua panicked, "Madam, it was my father-in-law who said bad things about you! I only heard it from one ear..."

At the critical moment, I would rather die than let my friend die!

But unexpectedly, Pu Rongda was even more panicked than him, "No! Why would I say something bad about you?"

"You know, you are Daddy's pride. Daddy only says good things about you when he's out. He never says anything bad about you!"

Pu Qiongzhi snorted, "I heard everything!"

Zhitao led people to carry back two baskets, which were full of freshly fried chestnuts.

"Neither of you can escape! Peel these two baskets of chestnuts for me today!"

After saying that, she turned around and left.

Pu Rongda pretended to be angry, "It's all your fault! She won't say anything to you! If you just take the responsibility, nothing will happen to both of us! Now it's like this, each of us has a basket, and I have to suffer even at my age."

"It's so unreasonable for my father-in-law to say that! Why shouldn't I be blamed? Look, aren't we being punished in the same way? What's more, it was my father-in-law who said bad things about my wife!" Nangong Hua felt helpless.

"You two aren't close anyway, so you don't have to worry too much about what she thinks. With me helping you two, maybe this will be over soon!"

"Who said that? I care a lot about what Madam thinks! If Madam hears it and really thinks that I am dissatisfied, then I will lose both my Madam and my army!" Nangong Hua curled his lips, unconvinced.

"Go ahead and peel it off. What's the point of saying these things now?" Pu Rongda sighed.

Nangong Hua wanted to cry, "If I can't finish peeling them, will Madam be very angry? Will the consequences be serious?"

"Oh, as for me, at most I'll just lose a daughter."

When Nangong Hua heard this, he moved his hands quickly, fearing that he would not be able to finish it.

Pu Rongda was not joking at all. Pu Qiongzhi had always been strict in enforcing orders during these years as the young master.

She was so determined that even he was no exception.

Fortunately, she was very generous and everyone could tolerate it for the sake of money.

What's more, the young master's family members are beautiful and speak softly and politely. How could they be unhappy?

Pei Wanqing, who has always been familiar with Pu Qiongzhi, has the most say in this matter.

When Pu Qiongzhi first entered the mansion, she thought she was very easy to control, but what was the result?

She was killed without a trace left!

…

Ruilou.

Pu Qiongzhi originally wanted to send an invitation to the female relatives of the Minister of War.

But when she thought about it, she felt that there was no reason to do so.

She simply made an appointment to meet alone with the cousin of the Minister of War.

The news was passed on to her by Ding Momo.

At that time, these unmarried girls were often called out to look around.

There are big venues and some small venues.

Ding Momo sent the letter within two days.

On the appointed day, a girl came wearing a hood.

"Chu Yuwan meets Lady Wen Shu."

Pu Qiongzhi looked at the girl and was very satisfied.

She has a lively and graceful appearance, especially her hands, which are so beautiful that they look like sculptures of gods.

"Thank you Miss Chu for keeping an eye on the tabloids for me. It's time to get rid of the filth in the capital!" Pu Qiongzhi's words were full of gratitude.

Chu Yuwan shook her head. "It's just a small favor, no need to mention it. Yuwan only hopes to help the noble lady."

"But, Miss Chu and I don't know each other. Why would Miss Chu help me?" Pu Qiongzhi just wanted her attitude.

Chu Yuwan said, "Yuwan also came to Beijing from a small town and lived under someone else's roof for many years. When I first saw Gongren's plight, I felt sympathy. But in just six months, Gongren has established herself... Yuwan admires you."

"I'm a merchant, and I don't have any other way to repay you. In the capital, gold and silver are still a bit vulgar." Pu Qiongzhi said, her eyes fell on her head, "It seems that Miss Chu is not short of gold and silver."

"Yes. Yuwan's family was also a merchant family, but her parents passed away early. However, they did leave me a fortune." Chu Yuwan said this with a hint of sadness. "But I really don't have a talent for business, so I sold all of this property. I have some money on hand, so I'm not too short of money."

"Miss Chu has an idea." Pu Qiongzhi understood after hearing it.

The girl was afraid that her shop would be taken away by someone, so she decided to exchange it for silver and keep it in her hands.

What's more, although the wife of the Minister of War was willing to contact her niece, she might not be willing to let her show up in public to do business.

"To be honest, I actually want to ask your advice." Chu Yuwan turned away, not daring to look directly at her. "It's about my marriage..."

Pu Qiongzhi looked at the girl who had been so graceful just now and suddenly became shy.

The Daliang Dynasty was actually quite lenient towards women.

With the rise of silk and handicrafts, many women can also do business and work to support their families.

The common people do not have such strict requirements in this regard, but most of the people in Beijing are from famous noble families, and they still hope to find a clan wife to take charge of the household affairs.

What a pity.

I think Miss Chu's parents let her go to Beijing to live with her aunt in the hope that she could use her uncle's official title to find a good marriage.

Chu Yuwan is now of marriageable age, but none of her cousins ​​have arranged marriages.

If there is a good boy, he will probably go with the decent lady first.

When it comes to marriage proposals, even good wine needs a good reputation if it’s not well known…

Not having a good family background means not having good choices.

She also has a substantial dowry!

If one doesn't take this seriously, he or she might be targeted by someone who wants to embezzle the dowry.

Although using your wife's dowry will be looked down upon, when you have no money, who would care about it?

Pu Qiongzhi remembered her father saying that poverty is the most terrible disease in the world, and it can even destroy a person's character and will.

Although they were worried, any respectable family would never let their daughter worry about her marriage on her own.

But... Chu Yuwan was so anxious that she even took the risk of asking a stranger for help. This was quite intriguing.

What Pu Qiongzhi was thinking was actually something that Chu Yuwan found difficult to say.

"My aunt originally wanted me to marry my second cousin, but my aunt in the mansion wanted me to marry my third cousin."

"A couple of days ago, the two of them had a huge argument, but who knew my uncle would suddenly bring up the matter of Anguogong's wife being lonely during dinner..."
