So what if I traveled through time? I'll continue to roll in another place

Meng Yufu became more and more angry as she thought about it in the room, so she called her personal maid Yin Xin and asked her to find out what Meng Yulan's hobbies were and who she was associating with recently.

A few days later, Yin Xin brought news that Meng Yulan was fond of poetry and literature. She usually just recited poems and composed essays in her room and rarely went out to socialize.

But because her aunt who gave birth to her died young, in order to supplement her private accounts, she would take on some poetry writing work from time to time, and after she finished writing the poems, she would take them out to the aunts to hand in in exchange for money.

Yinxin has already found out that the people who helped Meng Yulan to do this job were her eldest maid Jinxin and the gatekeeper Anfu.

In addition to delivering poems and essays commissioned by others, Anfu would also set up a stall in an inconspicuous corner of the West Market with some of Meng Yulan's calligraphy and paintings on his days off.

When Meng Yufu heard this, she came up with an idea. Since this cheap sister likes to write, she should let her write as much as she wants!

The corners of her mouth curled up slightly, a sly look flashed in her eyes, and she called her personal maid Yin Xin, and whispered, "Tell your trusted servant to go to the East Market to find me a playboy, give him some money, and have him buy Meng Yulan's poems at a high price without leaving any trace."

"Isn't this giving money to the second young lady?" Yin Xin asked puzzledly.

"You go ahead and do it, I have my own use." A vicious plan took shape in Meng Yufu's mind.

Seeing that the young lady was determined to do so, Yinxin took the order and left.

Yin Xin asked Ande, a servant of the Meng residence, to find Tao Ying, a famous scoundrel in the city, and promised him a large sum of money to collect Meng Yulan's poems.

This lecher Tao Ying was originally the son of a ruined family. His family was quite wealthy when he was young, so he learned some poetry.

But he was a womanizer and a gambler. After losing all his family fortune, he went straight to live in a big brothel in the East Market - Zuiyun Hall. When he had poems and essays, he would help the girls compose music and lyrics in exchange for good wine and food. When he had no money, he would just stay in the back room to make ends meet.

After getting this good job, Tao Ying, who was greedy for money, immediately agreed to it.

Under Ande's guidance, Tao Ying successfully got in touch with Anfu, who was selling calligraphy at a stall in a corner of the West Market.

Tao Ying dressed up carefully, with the demeanor of a rich and elegant young man. He wandered here and there until he finally came up to Anfu, and first carefully commented on the poems that Anfu brought.

"Brother, you have such amazing talent that I really admire and respect you! Your poems, calligraphy and paintings are like those of a fairy descending to the earth. They are so refreshing that I can't help but marvel at them!"

He patted Anfu's shoulder excitedly, as if he had met a soulmate in this life. "Brother, your talent and knowledge are rare in the world. The wonderful writing style and clever conception of this poem are amazing! It is a great blessing for me to meet you!"

Not only did he buy all the works that Anfu brought in one go, he also invited him to a nearby restaurant for a chat, and even threatened to become sworn brothers with Anfu.

It can only be said that Meng Yufu spent the money wisely. Tao Ying used all her acting skills that she had acquired throughout her life in brothels to scare Anfu.

The two of them drank and chatted happily, and his carefree manner and generous generosity quickly won Anfu's trust.

Tao Ying promised that as long as he produced such an excellent work, he would be paid a fee. This generosity made the young man, who had to work as a doorman and had a poor family, so excited that he lost his mind.

Anfu thought that not only could the second young lady earn more money for herself, but he himself could also save more money to marry a wife, so that he could propose the marriage to Jinxin's parents as soon as possible. So he went back excitedly to tell Jinxin the good news.

Jinxin was also very happy to hear the good news about Anfu. She and Anfu grew up together and had a close relationship, but Anfu's family was poor and Jinxin's parents did not agree to their marriage.

Especially since Jinxin's father used many connections to send her to the young lady, hoping that she could marry into a rich family like the young lady, and become a concubine in some royal palace in the future.

This way, not only can she get rid of her slave status and become half a master, but she can also earn more money to support her brothers and sisters. When Jin Xin's parents learned that the second daughter was going to marry a sixth-rank official, they were already very dissatisfied. If she was to marry this little gatekeeper, they would be even more unwilling.

Jin Xin also happily reported the good news to Meng Yulan.

Compared to this couple who were infatuated with love, Meng Yulan was much calmer. She knew that her level of poetry and prose was far from being so sought after. If someone was being too attentive to her for no reason, he was either a traitor or a thief. She immediately poured cold water on Jinxin's enthusiasm.

"There are many talented people in Beijing. I know my poetry, calligraphy and painting very well, but they are just mediocre. Anfu sells calligraphy and paintings on my behalf, and he is unknown. How could a rich man be willing to spend a lot of money to buy these works? I'm afraid he is a liar. Tell Anfu not to associate with him, and to stop selling calligraphy in the West Market until this storm is over."

Jin Xin was hit by Meng Yulan and was at a loss. She went to Anfu to discuss with him, "This second young lady is really weird. She was the one who wanted to make money, but now that the God of Wealth has come, she doesn't want to make money anymore?! I really don't understand."

An Fu had already been dazzled by the sky-high wealth. "The Second Miss is too timid to make money, so it's a good bargain for us! We will still sell it at the high price offered by Master Tao, and just quote it to Miss according to the previous price."

The middleman made a profit without any effort, and Jin Xin was very happy. "Okay! The young lady still has a lot of practice works. She was not satisfied with some of them and asked me to destroy them. I haven't burned them yet. I will collect them all and give them to you later. You can bring them all to Master Tao!"

If you don't make money, you'll lose money. The lady wants to save some money for herself. Don't you need it? Jin Xin is also full of energy.

For a period of time thereafter, Anfu secretly communicated with Tao Ying, and Jinxin gave him many of Meng Yulan's poems, essays and paintings.

Soon, Tao Ying obtained a large stack of Meng Yulan's poems and paintings.

He hurriedly contacted Ande and took these poems to the big money sponsor to claim the reward.

Yin Xin presented the poem book to Meng Yufu. Tao Ying, no, she was very satisfied with the efficiency of money.

"Tell that man surnamed Tao to change all these poems into obscene songs, and have the prostitutes sing along to them. Also, ask them to change Meng Yulan's paintings into fancy ones and wear them on their bodies. I want our talented Meng Yulan to be in the spotlight!" she ordered with a smile.

Yinxin took the order, gave the silver to Ande, and asked him to instruct Tao Ying and implement the latest instructions as soon as possible.

After Tao Ying got the money, she did it immediately.

Soon, a series of lyrics and music emerged from Zuiyun Pavilion. The women in the brothel sang Meng Yulan's "poems" and wore her "paintings" when walking around the city. Even if no one asked about it, they would specifically explain that they were the masterpieces of Meng Yulan, the second lady of the Meng family, and they were very elegant.

What men like most is to force women of good character into prostitution and persuade prostitutes to become good women. If they have the opportunity to covet the daughter of a minister, they will enjoy it.

Meng Yulan's reputation quickly spread throughout the city and soon reached Meng Zhengcheng's ears.
