Song Wanning and Yin Yichen analyzed the current situation for a while, and Yin Yichen immediately sent someone to the palace to inquire. The situation in the court was complicated, and now it was becoming more and more chaotic. Song Wanning was worried about Yin Yichen, but there was really only so much she could do now.

After Song Wanning finished what she could do, she turned around and did something else. Now the soap shop in Xifang, Beijing, was doing better and better, which was a bit unexpected for Song Wanning.

Zhuque stood beside Song Wanning and said in surprise, "Madam, you don't know that since the soap in our shop started selling, the business in the capital has been getting better and better. Now the supply can't meet the demand. And in the whole capital, only our family can make such soap. Even if you go around the whole capital, you can't find a second one."

Song Wanning was quite surprised after hearing what Zhuque said, "If the business is this good, I'm afraid the shop can't handle it. I see the raw materials for soap are hard to find."

"That's right." Zhuque hurriedly asked Song Wanning, "Madam, should we send more people to our shop so that Miss Cui can make more soap to sell?"

"No, if we continue like this, the raw materials will always be limited. I'm afraid there won't be enough soap one day." Song Wanning thought for a moment, then looked at Zhuque and said, "Now things like wood ash can be used to wash clothes. Those who come to buy soap must be servants from some wealthy families. In this case, tell Miss Cui that starting from next month, we will make as much as we can. We will limit the purchase of our products, and each household can only buy a certain amount. When the time comes, these wealthy families will not be able to buy them, and seeing that the products are scarce, we can raise the price."

Zhuque sighed after hearing this, "Madam is really thoughtful. This way we don't have to pay a high price to get more raw materials, but we can still make a lot of money."

"There are tricks to making money. Just learn more about it in the future." Song Wanning said, raising the pen in her hand and tapping it lightly on Zhuque's head.

There is no such thing as a wall that is impenetrable. The news that Cui Xiaoxiao was working in the Prime Minister's Mansion soon reached Song Wanshi's ears. And by coincidence, this shop in the Prime Minister's Mansion affected the business of the Yan family's shop where Guan Surong was currently working.

This was just one of the businesses of the Yan family, and Yan Yuzhi was not interested in it, but he mentioned it to Guan Surong. Guan Surong returned to her parents' home, which is now the home of Song Wanshi and Guan Wenyan.

Because this house is Song Wanshi's dowry, their family lives together.

Although Guan Wenyan didn't like Song Wanshi, he took good care of her for the sake of her property. The whole family thought she was a decent person. Mrs. Guan even acted as a middleman to reconcile Nan Hongqiu and Song Wanshi.

Seeing that Guan Surong had returned home, Song Wanshi angrily told how she had been deceived by Cui Xiaoxiao at the Marquis Zhongping's Mansion. "At the beginning, she swore that what she made was the best and would definitely make me money, but who knew that I would lose so much money in the end. I lost one thousand taels of silver. I wanted to kill myself to vent my anger, but that damn Wen Tingbo stopped me. Now Cui Xiaoxiao has gone to the Prime Minister's Mansion and made something called soap. I thought I would lose money, but who would have thought that I would make money again. I am really mad at you."

When Guan Surong heard Song Wanshi say this, she was quite surprised and said, "Sister-in-law, if that's the case, I'm afraid that Cui Xiaoxiao was doted on by Wen Tingbo in the past, so her relationship with Song Wanning is not that good, right?"

"I sent someone to find out everything." Song Wanshi rolled her eyes and said, "Cui Xiaoxiao and Song Wanning were at loggerheads at first. Cui Xiaoxiao made her lose face in public. And now, it was a misunderstanding that Cui Xiaoxiao could go to the Prime Minister's Mansion. It turned out that Wen Tingbo wanted to please the Prime Minister's Mansion and asked Cui Xiaoxiao to offer advice. Who knew that in the end, Cui Xiaoxiao went to the Prime Minister's Mansion, but had nothing to do with him, Wen Tingbo."

"If that's the case, we might as well make use of this relationship. Cui Xiaoxiao hates Song Wanning anyway, so we just need to find Cui Xiaoxiao and fan the flames to let her add something hurtful to the soap. Then, the whole capital will know that the soap was made by the Prime Minister's Mansion. In this way, Song Wanning's shop will lose all its money, right? It will also help my sister-in-law get revenge. The poor business of the soap shop in the Yan Mansion can also be improved. It is really a win-win situation."

Song Wanshi hesitated when she mentioned this, and said to Guan Surong, "Sister, you really don't know that Cui Xiaoxiao and I were also incompatible at the beginning. I wanted to kill her when I was angry, but who knew that she survived in the end. If I tell her about this now, I'm afraid she won't listen to me."

"If she doesn't listen, my sister-in-law will expose the fact that she joined forces with my sister-in-law to deal with Song Wanning in the Marquis Zhongping's Mansion, so that she won't have a good life in the Prime Minister's Mansion. In this case, I'm afraid she won't dare to do it." Guan Surong laughed and said, "Now, if the matter is resolved, our lives will be better."

Song Wanshi was also quite moved after hearing what Guan Surong said, "Let me think about it. Wait a couple of days and see if I can find Cui Xiaoxiao and talk to her about it."

Everyone responded, and Song Wanshi set her eyes on Guan Wenyan again, "Husband, I wonder how the family shop is doing these days?"

"They are all making money. Madam, just rest assured and enjoy your husband's service at home. Your husband will take care of all the things in the shop for you." Guan Wenyan said, and immediately stepped forward to massage Song Wanshi's shoulders. "Our family lives a good life, which is much better than living in the prime minister's mansion or the marquis' mansion outside."

Song Wanshi felt better after hearing this. After all, now that she was married to Guan Wenyan, she was in a completely different situation than before. The whole family depended on the land and shops she brought as a dowry to support them.

Fortunately, Guan Wenyan treated her well, so Song Wanshi didn't feel wronged.

When Song Wanshi got to this point, she immediately thought of Guan Surong who had married into the Yan family and became a concubine. "How is Surong doing in the Yan family now?"

"My husband has no wife now, and I am the best among the concubines. My husband is good to me. If I can help him solve his problems, I am afraid that I will be promoted to the position of Yan Yuzhi's wife in the future." Guan Surong is now determined to get the position of Yan Yuzhi's wife.

After all, Yan Yuzhi told her that he would promote her to become the mistress of the Yan family in the future.
