Time Travel: Brothel Maid

Chapter 47 Not Relatives

In addition, there is also a grand promotion launched by Xiaoguoer to help: all customers who visit our store today, whether participating in the lottery or buying lottery tickets, will enjoy the buy one get one free and buy more get more free treatment.

Therefore, even though the sun was scorching and people were feeling unbearable heat, there was still a crowd of people and a long queue in front of this not very spacious lottery shop.

Xiao Guoer and Tang Xi were so busy that beads of sweat covered their noses and foreheads.

Most of the lottery paper prepared in advance has been used up. Although the amount was doubled yesterday, it was unexpected that the supply still could not meet the demand.

With no other options, Xiao Guoer could only speed up the production on the spot, cutting the paper while writing serial numbers in Arabic numerals in order.

The pen moves with great force, and a series of special symbols that others cannot understand appear on the paper.

Xiao Guoer and Tang Xi were so busy that they wished they had an extra pair of hands.

The drawer for money had already been filled with copper coins, but Tang Xi was still busy and dizzy. However, when he thought that his boss would pay him three times his wages today, his fatigue instantly disappeared, and he was replaced by joy. So he sped up his movements and became more skillful and neat.

Tang Jingchen sat leisurely in the spice shop next door, gently waving his folding fan and savoring the fragrant tea in the cup.

His posture was elegant and leisurely, with a faint smile always on the corner of his mouth.

It seemed that the noisy and lively sounds coming from next door had no effect on him at all, and he was fully focused on his own pleasant time at the moment.

The owner of the spice shop stood aside, secretly surprised.

The young master is a very busy man on weekdays and has never stayed in the spice shop for so long as he did today.

The Tang family's business was huge and involved a wide range of business, covering all aspects of people's lives. The young master needed to take care of all the affairs personally, and it would take more than half a month every month just to inspect all the Tang family's stores in Shangjing City.

But today, the young master stayed here for a long time, neither checking the account books nor asking about the business, but just drinking tea and enjoying the scenery. It was really puzzling.

Could there be some hidden meaning behind this? The shopkeeper couldn't help but speculate secretly.

If there is anything unusual today, it must be the small shop separated from the spice shop. Now it is separated from the spice shop by only a wall, but it has been completely renovated.

There is a plaque hanging high at the entrance of the shop, on which are written three big characters "Lottery Shop". Today, the shop is decorated with lights and colors, and it is open for business in a festive atmosphere!

But the Tang family has opened many shops, but the young master has never been so attentive. What's more, the lottery shop next door is not the Tang family's property.

The young master's behavior is really incomprehensible.

Just as the shopkeeper was puzzled, the young master spoke leisurely, "If there is anything next door in the future, you have to take care of it. If you have any difficulties, feel free to come to me."

After the shopkeeper agreed, he cautiously asked, "Is this neighbor an important relative of the Tang family?"

In fact, it was not his fault for asking such a rash question. After all, the young master not only helped to tidy up the store himself, but also repeatedly gave instructions and showed great care, which was really curious.

In the past, there were many people who received funding from the Tang family to do business, but no one had ever received such a special honor, causing the young master to work so hard.

Tang Jingchen pondered for a while, then a gentle look suddenly appeared on his face. He smiled and said, "He's not a relative, but he's an important person."

The shopkeeper secretly took note and decided to build a good relationship with the guy opposite in the future.

At the other end of Yongxing Street, Fu Qian, who had not appeared in front of Xiao Guoer for several days, was now strolling in a jewelry store with his younger sister Fu Yaoning.

It's not that he has lost interest in Xiao Guoer, but that he hasn't found an opportunity to do it. He has no choice but to deal with the matter instructed by the Eighth Prince first.

It's strange to say, he has never had such a long patience when it comes to women. Even Yingniang, whom he wanted to kiss at the beginning, has now given up. But it is Xiaoguoer, a woman dressed as a man who doesn't know what is beautiful or ugly, who has whetted his appetite and aroused his strong curiosity.

After he solves Chen Fengyao's problem, he will find a way to make trouble for that annoying Tang Jingchen.

If Tang Jingchen is unable to take care of himself, he will have the opportunity to take advantage of it.

At this moment, Fu Qian'an looked at the dazzling array of pearls and emeralds, and felt that his eyes were dazzled by the dazzling jewelry.

He really didn't understand why a woman needed so many jewellery. His sister's jewellery could fill up ten dressing boxes, and she still felt it was not enough.

Fortunately, the Fu family was wealthy, so they could afford her to buy twenty dressing boxes of jewelry.

"Brother, do you think this golden Begonia pearl hairpin is pretty?"

"It looks good."

Fu Yaoning didn't notice the perfunctory expression on her brother's face. All her attention was on the hairpin in her hand. Her face was full of the joy and satisfaction of a girl who had found her favorite jewelry.

"I think it looks good too. It goes perfectly with my new golden and yellow tasseled palace skirt!"

Fu Qi'an took out the silver from his pocket to pay, and said coaxingly, "My sister is so beautiful, and she is born with a noble air. She looks good in anything she wears."

A man who is used to the world of pleasure is adept at coaxing women.

No matter whether this woman is his younger sister, his mother or the woman who serves him, she is deeply influenced by his sweet words.

"Sister, you are not young anymore. You will soon reach the age to discuss marriage. Mother may have already found someone for you. Do you have a man you like?"

In fact, it is really inappropriate for a brother to ask his sister, "Do you have a boy you like?"

But Fu Qian had to obey the orders of the Eighth Prince and match his sister with Zhou Fangye.

As expected, Fu Yaoning stomped her feet in anger after hearing her brother's absurd words, and her face flushed. "Brother, it's unreasonable for you to say such things! You haven't even married a sister-in-law yet, so why are you concerned about my marriage? I'll tell mother and ask her to quickly choose a lady from a wealthy family for you and take care of your outspokenness!"

Fu Qi'an panicked when he heard this. If he was the most favored son of the Fu family, then the most favored daughter must be Fu Yaoning. It was even possible that his sister was more favored than him.

Since he was a child, he was fearless except for his sister who would go to his parents to complain. As long as she complained about him, his parents would give him a good lesson without exception.

"Hey, hey, hey, you little girl, why are you repaying kindness with hatred! I am doing this for your own good. Women are different from men. If you marry the wrong man, won't you regret it for the rest of your life? You won't even be able to find a place to regret it by then!"
