Hearing this, Chu Zixi couldn't help but sigh that the Qian family's financial resources were indeed strong. If the Qian family had good intentions, she wouldn't have held on to the Qian family. Who made them rich and unkind? They could only consider themselves unlucky to have met her.

At the same time, on the bustling streets of the capital, a gorgeous carriage was moving slowly forward.

Sitting in the car were Qian Duoduo and her maid Xiaohuan. Qian Duoduo was holding a box tightly in her hands. In the box was a thick box of banknotes that she had prepared last night. A determined light flashed in her eyes.

"Miss, are we really going?" Xiaohuan asked worriedly.

"Of course! As long as I can get this business, my father will look at me with admiration when he comes back! This way my mother won't have to suffer the bullying of a concubine," Qian Duoduo said confidently.

Qian Duoduo was still dreaming at this time. That woman was acquainted with Princess Mengting. If she succeeded in making this deal, when her father came back, he would definitely think that she had a talent for business and would definitely give her some of the family business to manage.

In this way, she can prove her ability, no longer be looked down upon by her family, and her mother can also hold her head up high.

However, although Qian Duoduo kept convincing himself, he still felt a little uneasy.

These banknotes were obtained by her and her mother yesterday by putting pressure on the mother and son and using tough means. If.........

But how did the woman know that her father would be back in three days? Where is her father now? These questions kept lingering in her mind, making her feel a little anxious.

But she quickly convinced herself that none of this mattered. What mattered was to seize this opportunity and demonstrate her strength. So she took a deep breath and tried to keep herself calm and confident.

After Qian Duoduo arrived at the teahouse, he hurriedly went straight to the private room on the second floor.

She looked anxious, muttering, "Why haven't they come yet?"

The maid Xiaohuan beside her comforted her, "Miss, please don't worry. It's still early for the agreed time. Maybe they are already on their way."

Qian Duoduo calmed down a little after hearing Xiaohuan's words. She picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, and then said to herself, "Yes, I wonder what the identity of that woman was yesterday? How could she be so close to Princess Mengting?"

Xiao Huan shook her head helplessly and said, "Miss, the servant we sent to follow them yesterday still lost them in the end."

Qian Duoduo frowned and said dissatisfiedly: "It's useless! Forget it, anyway, as long as this deal can be done, we will have a closer relationship with Princess Mengting."

Xiao Huan still felt worried after hearing this. She frowned and asked softly, "Miss, the master never let you manage the business in person before. This time you suddenly do such a big business. Will there be any problems?"

Qian Duoduo glared at Xiaohuan and said unhappily, "You crow's mouth, didn't you see Princess Mengting was here too? How could anything have happened?"

Xiao Huan was still worried and continued to persuade her, "Even if it's okay, the master will be angry if he comes back and finds out that you, Miss, took away all the money earned from the most profitable shop in the imperial city in the past few months."

Qian Duoduo waved her hands impatiently, stroked her sleeves, and said nonchalantly: "Hmph! I can earn it back in a month. What's there to be afraid of? If my father knew that I made such a big deal, I don't know how he would praise me!" After that, she smiled confidently.

At the same time, in Zhaoyang Palace, Chu Mengting smiled and said to Chu Zixi: "Sister Xi, it's almost time, let's leave the palace!"

Chu Zixi smiled and nodded, saying, "Okay." Then, she took Jun Bai's hand and walked out of the palace with Chu Mengting.

The sun shines on the busy streets, and people are coming and going, making it very lively.

Jun Bai sat in the carriage and said to Chu Zixi in a baby voice, "Mom, I want to go downstairs to play, so I won't go to the teahouse with you."

Chu Zixi smiled and nodded, then whispered, "Stop the car."

The carriage slowly stopped. Chu Zixi looked at Jun Bai gently and said, "Go and have fun, but you have to be careful and don't cause trouble!"

Jun Bai nodded obediently to show that he understood.

Chu Zixi continued, "Yu Da, Yu Er, follow Xiao Bai, take good care of him, and take him out to play!"

The two of them answered respectfully, “Yes.”

Jun Bai got off the carriage excitedly, looked around the street curiously, and then began to wander around happily.

Yu Da and Yu Er followed him silently to protect his safety. Whenever Jun Bai wanted to buy something, Yu Da and Yu Er would step forward to pay.

Chu Mengting stuck her head out of the carriage and looked at Jun Bai playing happily on the street, a trace of doubt arose in her heart.

She muttered softly, "Sister Xi, Xiaobai is so fair and innocent. There is no news of any rich family losing a child in the entire imperial city. Moreover, if someone really lost a child, and if Xiaobai met his family, would Sister Xi be willing to let Xiaobai leave?"

Chu Zixi heard what Chu Mengting said, "Xiaobai's parents are gone, so he is an orphan. Okay, let's go to the teahouse."

The carriage slowly turned the corner, making crisp sounds of horse hooves, and moved forward at a leisurely pace.

Finally, it stopped in front of the teahouse from yesterday.

Chu Zixi and Chu Mengting stepped down from the carriage lightly.

Xiaohuan stood in front of the window of the private room on the second floor. She caught their figures with her sharp eyes and a hint of joy flashed in her eyes: "Miss, they are here!"

Qian Duoduo was originally impatient, but after hearing this, a bright smile immediately bloomed on her face, like a blooming flower. She stood up excitedly and walked quickly to the window, eager to see the scene downstairs.

However, when she rushed to the window, Chu Zixi and Chu Mengting had already walked into the teahouse and disappeared from her sight.

Despite this, Qian Duoduo still noticed the carriage parked next to the teahouse, and a bright light flashed in his eyes.

Qian Duoduo quickly adjusted her skirt, then walked out of the private room gracefully and stood at the door waiting.

Chu Mengting and Chu Zixi went up to the second floor together and immediately saw Qian Duoduo waiting for them at the door.

Qian Duoduo took a step forward and performed a standard courtesy to Chu Mengting: "I greet Princess Mengting."

Chu Mengting glanced at Chu Zixi beside her, only to see Chu Zixi wink mischievously, so Chu Mengting cleared her cough and said as seriously as possible: "No need to be polite, let's go in and talk."

After the group entered the private room, they sat down one after another. Qian Duoduo stood aside carefully and poured tea for the two of them personally.

Then she opened the box beside her, which was filled with thick banknotes.
