Chapter 616 New Business Opportunities
Lin Yuesha was comforting Pipa when someone in front of her turned around and stared at her, startling her.
"Lin Yuesha, weren't you unconscious?"
Qin Nanyan was waiting for Wenjun to come out when she heard a familiar voice behind her, so she turned around to look.
Acquaintances are right next to each other, yet neither of them notices.
"I was feeling drowsy, and my grandmother told me to come out for a walk to clear my head."
Lin Yuesha pointed to the pipa and said, "I brought my sister Yue'e with me, but we got separated."
Qin Nanyan rolled her eyes. She had something to say to Lin Yuesha alone, so she pointed to her maid Yuli and said, "Yuli, go and find my cousin. She's small and doesn't come to Taipingfang much. I'm worried about her."
Lin Yuesha immediately understood and instructed Bai Cha to go along as well. The three maids squeezed together and quickly made their way out of the crowd.
After the area was cleared, Qin Nanyan whispered in Lin Yuesha's ear, "I never expected that the marriage would be arranged for Lin Yue'e again. Tell me, did you use some kind of trick?"
In Qin Nanyan's eyes, Lin Yuesha had evolved from a fool into a clever person, even managing to escape the emperor's arranged marriage.
"You've misunderstood me. I was planning to pretend to be sick and hide for a while, but for some reason, Father told everyone that I was in a coma."
By pinning the blame on Lin Shusheng, Lin Yuesha clarified her own situation and pointed out that the Qin family had indeed disappeared, something they were likely aware of.
"Although my mother had a fight with Old Mrs. Lin, she was still skeptical about the matter."
After not seeing her for a few days, Qin Nanyan looked much better than before, and a sense of joy could be seen on her face.
Ever since Qin Nanyan sent her the message to run away, Lin Yuesha no longer disliked her. In her opinion, although they weren't exactly close sisters, Qin Nanyan was still salvageable. She was essentially just a proud young lady from a high-class family, and it was normal for her to have a temper.
"Yes, I heard that because you are currently engaged in marriage negotiations, they are worried that news about the Qin family will affect your marriage."
With the Luo Wang deal falling through, the Qin family has started to exert their efforts for Qin Nanyan again.
When the topic of marriage came up, Qin Nanyan blushed immediately. Although she had always coveted the position of Princess Consort of Luo, her mindset changed after she realized that she had no hope.
Madam Zhou took a fancy to a young master from the household of the Protector General. He was proficient in both literary and martial arts, and was also handsome.
"Is he Madam Xu's nephew?"
Lin Yuesha was shocked. Madam Xu had mentioned that if Lin Yuesha couldn't marry into their family, they would sell her to her own family so that no one would dare to bully her, since Madam Xu would be there to back her up.
Lin Yuesha had seen the young master of the Protectorate General's Mansion from afar before, and it seemed that he had a good relationship with Xu Da.
"Yes, but I don't know what the other party means."
Qin Nanyan was, after all, a young girl, and she was very shy when the topic of marriage came up.
Zhou was afraid that things might change if things dragged on. There was no definitive conclusion about Qin's disappearance, and if it were revealed that they had indeed eloped, Qin Nanyan's marriage would be even more difficult.
“That young master is a very good person. If I could marry him, it would be my good fortune.”
Under the moonlight, amidst the noisy crowd, Qin Nanyan spoke of that person with a smile on her face, full of anticipation for the future.
Lin Yuesha sincerely wished him well, knowing that marrying the Prince of Luo might not guarantee a good life. The Prince of Luo's mansion had many rules, while the generals, young and old, were less concerned with formalities and had a free and easy personality, much like Madam Xu. They were good men.
"I will definitely give you a big gift when you get married."
Lin Yuesha promised Qin Nanyan that she would at least create a dish for her that symbolizes a long and happy marriage.
"A promise is a promise, or you're a dog!"
Qin Nanyan said confidently, "Then you can wait for the good news. Don't worry, I'll definitely tell you first."
The two made a pact with a high five, a moment Lin Yuesha could never forget. She could never have imagined the tumultuous events that would unfold a few days later, and that Qin Nanyan would ultimately not marry the man she loved.
"Stay away from Lin Yue'e in the future. She even cheated me, her cousin."
Qin Nanyan still harbored resentment when she mentioned Lin Yue'e, but after Qin's disappearance, she felt more sympathy for Lin Yue'e.
The Qin family's attitude was ambiguous. The mother's meaning was that she did not want to investigate further and let the person disappear until her unmarried daughter got married.
As long as the person cannot be found, this matter will be brought up sooner or later.
"By the way, Pangpang also wants to hold a tea party and would like you to be the head chef."
Qin Nanyan asked Lin Yuesha, "You told Pang Pang last time that you could help her lose weight and become beautiful without having to go hungry. Is that true?"
"Really, but I want a thousand taels of silver."
Lin Yuesha didn't expect that Miss Pang to believe her; she just made up a casual remark, but the other party took it to heart.
"That's right. Rumor has it that she was the one who cared about you the most during the time you were in a coma, otherwise she wouldn't have gone to the Lin residence to see you immediately."
Pangpang is also getting engaged, but the other party dislikes her because she is fat and is not very satisfied with her.
While it's true that being a little chubby makes it easier to give birth, it's a bit unreasonable for someone as heavy as Pang Pang to be so suffocating.
"Pangpang has a big appetite. Can she lose weight by eating so much?"
Qin Nanyan was skeptical, feeling that Lin Yuesha might be trying to trick the other party into eating less and swindling money.
“I told her that I would give her five hundred taels first, and I would make a diet plan. If she ate according to my instructions, it would definitely be effective.”
Lin Yuesha is not only a master chef, but also knows about nutritional balance. Pang Pang is fat because she eats a lot, but she also loves fried food, especially the sugar and oil mixture that is most fattening. Fried dough sticks, sesame balls, and twisted dough sticks are all Pang Pang's favorites.
Eating like this and lacking exercise will definitely lead to weight gain over the years.
Losing weight without going hungry must be based on scientific principles, but Qin Nanyan couldn't understand what Lin Yuesha was saying.
"I'm only accepting a small amount of this silver."
Lin Yuesha not only needs to provide recipes, but also needs to prepare some low-calorie snacks to take with her.
"I'll observe you first. If Pangpang really loses weight without being hungry, I'll recommend you to my mother."
Zhou has gained a lot of weight recently, and although she occasionally skips a few meals, the effect is not obvious.
"Let me put it this way, if Pangpang finds it effective, why don't you just open a shop?"
The young ladies were required to learn proper manners, and it was rare for them to become obese, but the figures of the ladies from high-ranking families were... well, let's just say they weren't exactly stellar.
She looks wealthy, but because she's too fat, she doesn't look good in dresses.
Qin Nanyan's words provided Lin Yuesha with a new business opportunity.
"Let me think about it first. If it works out, I won't take your money. Consider it a reward for suggesting this idea."
Lin Yuesha thought about it for a moment. Although she didn't know much about beauty, she had some knowledge of weight loss through dietary adjustments.
If one could do business with the ladies of the capital without much effort or risk, there would definitely be considerable profits.
As for the shops, this business can be done entirely by providing door-to-door service. You don't need to spend money to buy or rent shops; the reputation will spread by word of mouth.
