These scenes!
Xie Yuchuan's pupils were about to tremble and his heart sank.
“My Lord…..We seem to be late. Has Miss Shen sorted out everything?”
“There was quite a big commotion in this shop before, how come it was resolved so easily? Miss Shen didn’t need you to do anything at all…” The servant realized that he had said the wrong thing after he finished speaking.
He quickly looked up and saw that Xie Yuchuan's face was getting darker and darker.
The servant wanted to slap himself twice on the spot. Why didn't he think before speaking?
The Marquis deliberately delayed for two quarters of an hour and came slowly on the way, just to see Miss Shen's embarrassing and helpless look, and then come to her rescue as a hero.
He said Miss Shen doesn’t need the Marquis!
Isn't this clearly a stab into the Marquis' heart?
Xie Yuchuan pursed his lips tightly, gnashing his teeth and sneering angrily. He had never expected this scene to happen: "Go and find out who helped Chen Wei solve these troubles."
"I don't believe that no one will help. Even if Weiwei can solve those troubles, it is impossible for the young ladies from various mansions to come and patronize us!"
"There must be another reason!"
"If she dares to help Chen Wei, she is going against me."
The servant ran to ask the people around him for the news, and soon he got the news.
After hearing that it was Miss Lu from the Prime Minister's Mansion who came in person to buy the longevity cake, and stayed for quite a while, the maids from other mansions who were hiding in the dark could see it clearly.
Xie Yuchuan's face froze for a moment, then became even uglier.
How could it be the Prime Minister’s Mansion?
Why would Miss Lu from the Prime Minister's Mansion help Chen Wei?
Is she crazy!
How could a daughter of the prime minister, of such noble status, be hanging out with Chen Wei? Did she not care about her reputation and dignity? Wasn't she afraid that the women of the other palaces would secretly talk about her?
“Damn it!”
"No wonder young ladies from all over the country dare to come here. The Lu family's legitimate daughter's status in the capital is second only to that of the royal family. Now that she's here, those young ladies who want to come will definitely not hold back!"
"Bang!"
Xie Yuchuan angrily punched the car window.
Then he lowered the curtain with a cold look in his eyes and murmured affectionately, "Weiwei, there is no such thing as helping her without reason in this world. I am the only one who dotes on her the most."
"Why don't you understand? One day, you will realize that I am the only one you can rely on! No one else can help you."
"Return to the Marquis' Mansion."
He knew that Chen Wei was in high spirits at the moment and business was booming. If he went in at this time, he would only get into trouble. She would definitely not listen to anything he said.
Let Chen Wei indulge in being the shopkeeper for a few days.
As his woman, you don't need to know how to make money, nor do you need to go out and start a career or family business. It is enough for you to just stay in the backyard honestly.
He could pamper Chen Wei, or let her act unreasonably and compete for his favor and love, but he could never allow Chen Wei to escape his control and no longer depend on him.
Because Xie Yuchuan has been feeling vaguely uneasy recently. Once Chen Wei's wings become stronger, perhaps he will no longer be needed...or perhaps, he will no longer belong to her.
"Miss Chen, you are really bad at business. Today is the first day of opening the store, and you have no longevity cakes to sell." A person who looked like a maid said dissatisfiedly.
Chen Wei smiled back and answered patiently, "I'm really sorry, but the longevity cakes must be freshly made to taste good, so we don't have much ready stock."
"As you can see, there are so many people coming to buy today. Look, there's a whole page of records for those waiting in line this afternoon."
"I'm sorry, but it's only available tomorrow. Would you like to order the longevity cake for tomorrow?"
The lady wearing a curtain beside her pursed her lips and whispered something to the maid, who nodded and said, "Okay, then let's order the longevity cake for tomorrow."
"I want a fruit cake and a Black Forest cake."
Chen Wei lowered his head and registered the information, saying as he wrote, "Two cakes cost a total of six taels of silver. Please pay."
"I've never seen anyone do business this way. They want to pay money before they even get the goods." The maid complained, and after the young lady nodded in agreement, she paid the money reluctantly.
