Chapter 274 Invisible Rich Woman

Xu Muhua hurriedly took Liang Ming and Wu'er out, but met Pei Shaorong on the way!

They were both surprised to see each other.

Why did Muhua (Arong) go out so early?

"Arong, where are you going?" "Muhua, where are you going?"

The

two asked in unison, and then looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.

However, Pei Shaorong's smile soon disappeared, and there was a trace of sadness in her eyes.

"I'm going to Xiangguo Temple to pray for blessings."

"Why do you want to go to Xiangguo Temple to pray for blessings?"

And it's so early in the morning, is there any need to rush like this?

Also, seeing that there were only Arong and her maid in the carriage, why would Arong go to Xiangguo Temple alone to pray for blessings?

Xu Muhua was puzzled.

Pei Shaorong frowned slightly: "My mother has been ill these two days. She has seen doctors and even the imperial physician, but there is no improvement. I am a little worried, so I want to go to Xiangguo Temple to pray for my mother."

Xu Muhua's face immediately showed a concerned expression, "Aunt is ill? But wasn't she fine a few days ago?"

It has only been a few days since the eldest princess's flower viewing banquet! Aunt looked very energetic that day!

Pei Shaorong nodded, "My mother fell ill the day after I came back from the eldest princess's mansion. At first I thought it was just the autumn wind and she accidentally caught a cold. She would be fine after a rest and taking some medicine. But it became more and more serious. The imperial physician also came to see her and prescribed medicine, but it seems to have no effect." There was nothing

she could do, so she could only go to Xiangguo Temple to pray for her mother and ask for a peace talisman.

Xu Muhua frowned, "Why does it sound so strange?"

Are you sure there is no problem? Is she really just sick?

Pei Shaorong seemed to understand what she meant and shook her head, "The imperial physician in the palace has come to see her and found no other abnormalities. He only said that my mother might have been too busy recently. She might have been very nervous, and then she relaxed all of a sudden, so she became ill."

Just because the imperial physician said so, her grandmother began to make moves again, wanting Aunt Zhao to be the housekeeper again.

Thinking of this, Pei Shaorong could no longer hide the sarcasm in her eyes.

Although her family background was indeed not good, she had never seen much of the world before her grandfather became successful, and she had not received any good teachings. But after being the Madam of Pei Mansion and the old lady for so many years, her horizons should have been broadened and her vision should have been expanded.

But she grew so old in vain.

She didn't even think about what kind of status Aunt Zhao was now. Calling her Aunt was just a call from the servants in the mansion for the sake of their mother and son.

The dignified Taifu Mansion let a lowly concubine be the housekeeper. It's a pity that she could think of it and dare to bring it up!

Xu Muhua also noticed it, but said nothing.

Needless to say, everyone could guess what happened in the Pei Mansion. It must be that since Madam Pei was sick, someone was going to make trouble again.

Xu Muhua felt a little sympathetic to Taifu Pei. A man who knew what was going on married a wife who didn't know what was going on and gave birth to a son who didn't know what was going on. It was terrible!

To put it bluntly, it was really not easy for Taifu Pei to live to this day and look quite healthy!

But it is the father's fault if the son is not well educated!

"Illness comes like a mountain falling, and it goes away like a thread being pulled out. Aunt will definitely get better soon!"

Xu Muhua said.

Pei Shaorong smiled, "Well, I also believe that my mother will definitely get better soon!"

Seeing that she was alone, Xu Muhua was a little worried, and simply said: "I will accompany you to Xiangguo Temple!"

Pei Shaorong was stunned for a moment, "But don't you have something else to do?"

"I don't need to rush for this matter now. It's the same if I accompany you to Xiangguo Temple to pray and burn incense and come back to do it! It's decided, let's go!"

Xu Muhua drove Pei Shaorong's maid to her own carriage and went to sit with Wu'er, and Liang Ming was responsible for driving the carriage. And she herself got on the carriage of Pei's house.

After getting on the carriage, she told Pei Shaorong about what she was going to do under her questioning.

Pei Shaorong asked curiously, "Why are you looking for a house there?"

She said mysteriously, "Keep it a secret for now, I'll tell you when I'm done."

If that's really the prince consort, she won't need to tell him, not to mention Arong, even the whole capital will know.

Pei Shaorong couldn't help but laugh at this, but she didn't ask any more questions, she smiled and said, "Okay, I'll wait until you're done before telling me!"

Then she said, "You want to find a house, so are you going to rent or buy it?"

Xu Muhua must have thought about this question.

Renting is cheap and economical, after all, she just wants to find out whether that person is the prince consort. Buying is expensive, the price of houses in the location of Ling Mansion is not cheap!

But! Renting is risky!

If someone finds out that there was a long tunnel in the house leading directly to Ling's house, and then they trace it back to her, she won't be able to explain herself even if she has ten mouths, a hundred, or a thousand reasons!

So!

She decided to buy it! Safety is the most important thing!

Anyway, Bai Xiaosheng has made a lot of money in the past six months, and his reputation has increased a lot, so the fees have also increased. The mahjong hall has also made a lot of money, so it should be enough if we add it together.

At most, she will be penniless again after buying it!

She took a deep breath, as if cutting meat, "Let's buy it! It's safer to use it after buying it."

Pei Shaorong didn't think there was anything wrong with this, and said, "It's okay to buy it. You can use it as a warehouse for sundries instead of living in it in the future."

Xu Muhua was surprised to hear this, "Arong, are you so rich?"

In a place like the capital where every inch of land is worth a lot of money, you can just buy a house and use it as a warehouse?

"Not really, I have always saved my own money, my grandfather gives me a sum of money every year, and so does my maternal grandfather. My mother has been saving money for my dowry since I was born. Those shops and farms have good income every year. My mother will not touch these incomes, they all belong to me."

Xu Muhua drooled after hearing this.

She reached out and wiped the corner of her mouth.

I didn't know that Arong was actually a rich woman!

"The house next to Ling's Mansion is mine. If you want it, I'll sell it to you at a friendly price! Anyway, there's no use for keeping the house."

Xu Muhua dropped his jaw in shock, "What? You have a house near Ling's Mansion?"

Pei Shaorong's face seemed to have a hint of disgust when this house was mentioned, "Muhua, I'm not afraid to tell you the truth. This house was actually bought by my mother and father not long after they got married and was going to give it to my father. But... you know something about Pei's Mansion, and my mother later gave the house to me."
