Chapter 278: Extremely Admirable
Hearing Mrs. Bao's words, Zhu Yingyan hid her pinched palms in her sleeves.
Zhu Yingyan hated Zhu Xuntao so much, she hated all of Zhu Xuntao's successes.
But even so, when the maid lifted the silk cloth and revealed a perfect set of glass ornaments in the box,
Zhu Yingyan knew that she could not escape Zhu Xuntao's spell.
She really liked this box of ornaments and wanted them very much.
Zhu Yingyan could even imagine how beautiful she would look if she wore this set of glass ornaments.
A set of exquisite ornaments that could add luster to herself, what woman in the world could refuse it?
Even she herself was like this, and the conflicts between others and Zhu Xuntao were not that big. Some even had no conflicts and
wanted to please Zhu Xuntao in every way. It was even more impossible for them to refuse these colored glass products.
This time, Zhu Xuntao won again.
Mrs. Sun's eyes would fall on the colored glass ornaments around her from time to time, and her eyes were full of reluctance.
At this moment, Mrs. Sun saw that the eyes of others were exactly the same as hers.
Mrs. Sun understood that these colored glass products were tailor-made by Zhu Xuntao for everyone.
If this thought still cannot please people, then it would be impossible for him to live as a human being.
Zhu Xuntao's trick was really good.
Mrs. Sun liked the colored glass products around her, but she was reluctant to spend the money, especially to give the money to Zhu Xuntao.
For a moment, Madam Sun was so upset that her intestines were about to break.
"Mother..."
Zhu Yingyan asked Madam Sun not to worry. If they really wanted glass products, they
didn't necessarily have to spend money.
Zhu Xuntao was their relative. Zhu
Xuntao was unwilling to hand over the glass business to them, but he was so stingy that he refused to give them a few glass products.
Therefore, the ones who would be cut by Zhu Xuntao would only be others, not them. Madam Sun whispered to Zhu Yingyan: "I don't want Zhu Xuntao to make so much money..." Zhu Xuntao had made enough money, and she didn't want Zhu Xuntao to be satisfied today since she was here. Zhu Yingyan intended to let Madam Sun tease Zhu Xuntao. If today's Spring Festival Banquet is a great success, she can still sleep well tonight. However, she has already come. If she is not present, she will let her mother make whatever noise she wants. "Mom, don't act rashly." Zhu Yingyan held Madam Sun and told her not to say anything outside. "Dad will be angry." "And if you make such a noise, I'm afraid we will be laughed at again." "Mom, you still want me to get married, right?" Zhu Yingyan said the last sentence helplessly. The person she wanted to marry was not so easy to marry. If she made another noise today, I'm afraid she would lose all hope. Zhu Yingyan would never allow such a thing to happen. She must not care about being buried with Zhu Xuntao just to destroy him. Zhu Xuntao can die, but the premise is that she must live well, otherwise, no matter how badly Zhu Xuntao lives, what's the point. "Wouldn't that be a bargain for Zhu Xuntao?" Madam Sun was unwilling to accept it. A man like Zhu Xuntao who was unfilial and unfraternal could not only make a lot of money, but the admiration of the wives of officials for Zhu Xuntao almost exceeded their satisfaction with glass products. How could she accept Zhu Xuntao's rising popularity among the wives of officials in the capital. She herself didn't have such treatment, so what did Zhu Xuntao, who was nothing, rely on? "Mother, you don't want to give Zhu Xuntao a good deal, so you don't care that it will hurt your daughter?" "That's true. As long as mother is happy, daughter has no objection. At most, I will not marry and stay with mother for the rest of my life." At this time, Zhu Yingyan was really annoyed by her mother's stubbornness . In order to bring down Zhu Xuntao, mother doesn't care if she has a bad life? "Tsk, these two, one big and one small, are two fools, so stupid." Madam Ji's eyes are not blind, and she is close to Madam Sun and her daughter. So when she saw Madam Sun and Zhu Yingyan whispering, her first reaction was that the mother and daughter were going to make trouble again. Compared with the restlessness of others, they just want to buy, buy, buy, Madam Sun and Zhu Yingyan are clearly trying to make trouble. The Crown Prince's Consort must have been in trouble for eight lifetimes to have such a mother and such a sister. Today is such a great day, but they are not content. If Madam Sun and Zhu Yingyan can get along well with Zhu Xuntao, they can get one more set of such priceless glassware for free every month. What's the matter, isn't it good to have it for free? If she had a daughter as smart and promising as the Crown Prince's Consort, she would wake up laughing in her dreams every night. "Mom, they are not stupid today, don't worry about them." Zhao Xiangyao's attention was all on the glassware on the table next to her. "Mom, my daughter wants it." Although Zhao Xiangyue didn't speak, her eyes released the same message: she wants it. Madam Ji nodded, indicating that everyone had a share. In today's situation, no one can go out empty-handed. It's the same for everyone. If anyone wants to go out empty-handed, just don't be afraid of losing face. "Prepare the four treasures of the study." While everyone was still immersed in the exquisite glass products, Zhu Xuntao came up with a new idea.
"I think you ladies must have heard about the recent situation in the capital."
"Therefore, the Spring Festival Banquet held by the Yongjing Marquis' Mansion today has another purpose."
"That is to raise funds for the refugees who are about to arrive in the capital or have already arrived in the capital."
"Today all the glass products are for charity sale, and the proceeds will be used to treat refugees and disaster victims."
"My Yongjing Marquis' Mansion does not keep a single ounce of silver."
"Of course, ladies, we will tell the people about the charity today, so that the disaster victims know who they are grateful to and who they should be grateful to."
"In this way, ladies can write down the price of the glass products they like and pay according to the price when they leave."
"If it's inconvenient, you can ask the people in the mansion to pay the silver later and then take the glass products away."
Mrs. Bao frowned. In this way, wouldn't it be a secret investment?
Although there is no reserve price, you can offer any price you want.
But everyone knows the value of glass.
Not to mention, what Zhu Xuntao took out today is still a treasure.
If the price is too low, you will lose face.
Zhu Xuntao also announced in advance that the silver from the sale of glass will be used to help the people, and he will not keep a penny.
Not to mention offering a low price, if the price is not high enough, you will feel embarrassed and unworthy of the thanks of the victims.
With this sense of vanity, Zhu Xuntao's no reserve price is the highest reserve price.
Mrs. Ji sighed for the third time today, and she was even more impressed by Zhu Xuntao.
Such an excellent woman, not entering the palace as a concubine, is really a blessing for other women.
If Zhu Xuntao were to enter the palace, how could other women survive?
