After the mistress of the Marquis's Mansion awakened, she no longer wanted to be the mistress o

Chapter 43 Who says women can’t be in the spotlight and do business?

Although he had the ability, he had been kicked out of the textile industry due to his character problems, so he felt that no one dared to employ him, and furthermore, this person was a woman.

He was worried that Li Qingwan was deliberately trying to cause trouble for him!

Li Qingwan walked up to him and gave him a cold look. "Don't doubt a person if you don't trust him. I like your weaving skills. Are you interested in helping me?"

"Help you do things? Didn't the young master of the Sima family come back safe and sound? How could it be your turn? Besides, it is a taboo for a woman to be in the limelight while doing business. Madam Sima, aren't you afraid of the old lady's blame?"

"What's wrong with being a woman? Women can also hold up the sky. Without women, how could you have jumped out of the cracks of the stone?"

"you……"

"Cut the nonsense!"

Li Qingwan didn't want to waste more time with him, "Are you willing to follow me?"

This time, Hu Zi finally looked Li Qingwan in the eye. He knew that business was usually done by men, and women were very rare. A few years ago, Zhou Ying, the richest woman in Jiangnan, emerged. Could it be that the Sima family was also going to have a strong woman?

"What's the benefit of helping you? Do you know how much my salary is?"

"As long as you do what I need, you can decide how much the salary is. How about that?"

"really?"

"Not only that, I can also cure your mother. Isn't it for her that you made the mistake?"

"Madam Sima, are you serious?"

"I need you to look at some weaving methods and write them down. Any questions?"

At dawn, the sound of weaving cloth could be heard from the Sima family workshop. As their salaries had not yet been paid, many female workers went on strike and refused to work. Li Qingwan, who had money in her hands, decided to wait and see.

She brought Li and Hu Zi to the weaving workshop. When Li found that there were few female workers, she asked directly, "Madam, why are there so few people? I remember that there were hundreds of people working in the past."

"You said that was in the past. Now you can't even afford the salary. Who will help you work?"

Li: "..."

How could she not know that Sima family's workshop had fallen to this state? The old lady still asked her to monitor Li Qingwan. What was there to monitor in this shabby workshop?

"Ms. Li, the old lady asked you to stay with me. Although she believes in your ability, I have never seen it before. Why don't you show me your skills?"

"Yes, Aunt Li, I heard that you can weave Shu embroidery. Zi'er has never seen Shu embroidery. Will you let me open my eyes later?"

Li was naturally very proud of being praised like this. She rolled up her sleeves and prepared to work, "Madam, please look at me!"

"Zi'er, take her to the dyeing workshop to prepare!"

Li was puzzled when she saw that Li Qingwan would not go with her, "Madam, why don't you come and see it yourself?"

She also wanted to show off her skills to Li Qingwan, so that she would respect her as the Weaver Lady in the future!

Li Qingwan pretended to trust her and said, "As long as you can do it, it will be fine. The Sima family depends on you for the fabric exhibition this time!"

"Madam, I am embarrassed for you to say that. Don't worry, I will take care of it!"

"Madam, something's wrong!"

Suddenly, Ah Qing's panicked voice came from behind, and when she saw Ah Qing coming, Li Qingwan waved her hand and looked at Li, "Go, I'll wait for your good news."

Li originally wanted to monitor what Ah Qing said, but she had no choice but to let Zi Er pull her away because she wanted to show off. After she left, Ah Qing hurriedly whispered, "Madam, is that woman here?"

"Well, what's going on? Is there an uproar in the Sima Mansion?"

"It has already been blown up. The news that Master Sima slept with a beggar has spread all over the capital. Now the old lady wants you to go back immediately."

"Let me go back?"

"Yes, the old lady asked you to go back and deal with this matter!"

"I handle it?"

Li Qingwan only thought that the old woman was quite calculating. Did she really think that she was still the hardworking stepping stone she used to be? Whenever there was trouble in the Sima family, it was she, Li Qingwan, who would settle it!

"Yes, that's what the old lady said. She asked you to go back!"

"Have those aunts and uncles arrived?"

"They are all here, in the lobby, waiting for you."

Just like before, whenever something happened to the Sima family, the old woman would call her family members and Sima Yue's uncles and aunts to discuss countermeasures.

It seems that Sima Yue's sleeping with the beggar this time completely angered the old woman.

Although the Sima family has fallen from grace, a lean camel is still bigger than a horse. When something happens, those so-called relatives will still stand together. They are very united. This is what she is taboo about. Therefore, even if she wants to bring down the Sima family, she has to proceed step by step. A slight mistake will lead to a great mistake.

If she fails to handle it properly, she will die a more miserable death, and will also implicate Ah Qing and Zi'er beside her. In this new life, she cherishes her life more than anyone else. She wants to see the Sima family fall and all her enemies get punished!

"Ma'am, how do you plan to handle this?"

Ah Qing was very curious and wanted to ask her how she was going to deal with it. What was the lady planning behind this drama?

Li Qingwan was in a good mood, but she did not answer Ah Qing's question. She just said calmly, "Ah Qing, let's go back to the mansion to watch a good show."

When leaving the workshop, she specifically asked Ah Qing to find someone to look at the wasteland and asked her to buy back all the land in Zhaojiatun. However, Ah Qing found it very strange. What was the benefit of buying those lands?

"Madam, those are wastelands that no one wants. Why should we buy them back?"

Li Qingwan naturally would not tell Ah Qing that she knew about the land in her previous life, but she missed it for no reason. The land would soon be used to build a commercial street, and she could make a lot of money just by turning the land over.

In this life, she will not give up such a good opportunity to make money.

"The wasteland doesn't matter. The main thing is the owner of that land must be me, Li Qingwan!"

Ah Qing: "..."

At dawn, when Li Qingwan got off the sedan chair, the housekeeper had been waiting for her for a long time. "Oh, Madam, you are back. Something big happened in the Sima family."

The housekeeper was also surprised to see her come back leisurely. Didn’t the lady and the young master consummate their marriage last night? How come she became a beggar and was caught by the old lady on the spot?

Now the rumor is out there that the young master of the Sima family is a homosexual. The old lady was so angry about this that she didn't even have breakfast. The Sima family's ancestors are so embarrassed!

"Butler, stop talking nonsense. No matter how big the problem is, the old lady is still here. Why are you panicking?"

housekeeper:"……"

"Where are the old lady and the others?"

"Qingwan, you're back. What do you think is going on?"

Inside Sima's house, a woman in luxurious clothes walked towards her. She was about fifty years old and looked very well maintained. She complained as she walked, "What are you doing out so early in the morning? As a daughter-in-law, your responsibility is to serve your mother-in-law and husband. Why do women have such a strong sense of career? You don't even make much money."
