Chen Siyuan's expression and tone should have made Qiao Yuchen happy, but now he felt it was a bad thing.
Not knowing where things went wrong, I felt uneasy and quickly explained, "I was drinking with your older cousin."
"Big cousin?" This question worked, completely changing Chen Siyuan's original thoughts.
It must be said that a man as quick-witted as Qiao Yuchen can always find a more advantageous position for himself.
"Yes, I ran into him on my way back, and we had a drink together."
My older cousin came to see me today.
"What does he want with you?"
"He was going to the State of Wu and asked me some questions."
"The Kingdom of Wu?" What a coincidence.
The Wu Kingdom and the Eighth Prince's fiefdom were very close.
When they sent people to investigate the Eighth Prince, they inadvertently discovered the secret transactions the Eighth Prince was conducting, and immediately became interested in this Wu Kingdom.
If time allows, he also wants to get involved.
To many people, Qiao Yuchen didn't have a proper job, but he was a patriot.
The Eighth Prince's contact with the people of Wu was clearly not a good thing. It was all for that matter. If he did something that affected the interests of the state, he wouldn't mind having the blood of the royal family stain his sword again.
"My older cousin is planning to get into the porcelain business, and it just so happens that Wu Kingdom porcelain..."
Chen Siyuan gave a rough explanation, which Qiao Yuchen understood perfectly, and he immediately smiled.
Doing business is good; it saves a lot of trouble.
People who accomplish great things need a broad perspective and the ability to handle everything around them at crucial moments.
Then, thinking of what Chen Siyuan had just mentioned about Yinglan, it was the most appropriate thing to leave this matter to her.
He never expected that chatting with women could have such amazing results.
Having successfully resolved another matter, Qiao Yuchen was pleased and carried the woman into the inner room.
At this point, Chunlan and Chunping no longer needed Jiang Ma's reminders; they knew when it was time to leave.
Upon entering the courtyard, the two maids did not rush to leave.
He watched the guards walk by in the distance.
The two women clearly sensed something different about the guards around them. Could there be some danger lurking nearby?
They remained vigilant and did not do anything inappropriate as they had done in the past.
Just as he was about to return to the house, he saw that Wang Li had left at this moment.
They exchanged a glance, wondering if something serious had really happened.
Wang Li was rarely by the young mistress's side; he was either busy outside or came back to report on something.
Now, Wang Li has gradually established a network of relationships in the capital.
He would take the lead in gathering information from various sources, and then pass on the useful information to Chen Siyuan. As for the information that was not needed for the time being, it would be temporarily compiled and kept for when it would be useful.
I wonder what big event has happened that would make Wang Li go out at this time.
......
The next day.
Chen Siyuan was tormented all night.
I woke up very late.
The maidservant beside him was already familiar with this scene, so it was nothing unusual.
They felt that the young mistress was living a more comfortable life.
With Aunt Guo and Qiao Yang no longer deliberately making things difficult, Aunt Xu is now in her own courtyard.
Chen Siyuan does not need to pay her respects to Madam Qiao.
Doing what I love every day without having to follow so many rules—that's a wonderful life.
The Wen family is peaceful now, and the Chen family is without trouble. It would be even better if the young mistress had another child by her side.
Unaware of their thoughts, Chen Siyuan, after finishing her meal, took her two maids and went to Nanguan Street again.
At this crucial moment, Chen Siyuan's eyes widened, preparing everything for tomorrow's punctuality.
Based on past experience, if you really delegate all the responsibilities to others, things will only get out of your control, and when it comes to the crucial moment, all your efforts will just benefit others.
Chen Siyuan has this mindset: no matter what she does, she wants to hold on to it tightly but firmly.
Only in this way can the future direction be within one's own control.
Chen Siyuan came to a women's clothing store, originally intending to take a look.
She heard that a new batch of fabric had just arrived, and she wanted to see what kind of clothes it would be suitable for.
She had just arrived when she saw her older brother, Chen Luyang, arrive. "Big brother," she said, knowing that Chen Luyang probably shared the same thoughts as her.
"You've come to look at the fabrics too?"
"Um."
"This fabric has a defect," Chen Luyang said directly. He had just found out and rushed over immediately. He was now planning to contact the delivery company to return it.
Upon hearing this, Chen Siyuan carefully picked up the fabric and examined it.
The fabric is very thin, almost half the original thickness.
Such clothing is almost transparent when worn.
"How could this happen?" There had never been a mistake before, and Chen Siyuan was unwilling to accept this situation.
"It's likely that it was switched." This hasn't been confirmed yet, but the probability is high.
Upon hearing this, Chen Siyuan stared at the fabric in front of her, examining it in her hands before turning to Chen Luyang and saying, "Brother, I'll leave the outside matters to you and handle this."
Chen Luyang looked at Chen Siyuan and understood the meaning behind her words. However, he was very worried that someone was deliberately targeting him, which was not a good thing.
If we don't stop it immediately, such things might happen again, and it would be bad to be in a passive position.
When they first opened, business was slow and nobody paid attention to them. Now that business is good, their competitors have all come to get involved.
He was annoyed by this kind of thing, but he couldn't stop it.
Having been in business for many years, I've encountered similar situations before, so I can't help but feel a little worried.
