It was impossible for Caiyue not to be afraid when she heard this, but she knew that she had to hold on no matter what. The young lady had finally escaped, and she couldn't let her be caught again.

"Sir, that night, after you left, the young lady gave me your outer robe, and then she went back to her room."

Upon hearing this, Shen Yanfeng couldn't help but stand up with his eyes narrowed: "I will give you another chance. Tell me what your young lady said that day."

Caiyue took a deep breath, and then said in a deep voice: "Miss, take off the master's outer robe and hand it to me. I said to you, it's cold outside, you should put it on quickly!"

"The lady said, no need, no matter how warm your body is, your heart is cold, no matter how thick the clothes are, they can't keep you warm."

"After the young lady finished saying this, she returned to her bedroom alone."

When Shen Yanfeng heard that, his eyes suddenly turned red, as if they were what she said.

"Are you lying or not?" Shen Yanfeng stared at her with red eyes.

Upon hearing this, Caiyue knelt on the ground with a plop: "If I lie, I will be struck by lightning and die a miserable death."

Shen Yanfeng stared at her viciously and said, "I don't believe in oaths. I only believe that the truth will come out under torture."

Caiyue: "I did not lie. I am willing to endure the punishment."

Shen Yanfeng looked at her with red eyes and swallowed his saliva: "Come here, take this slave away for me."

"It's my lord!"

Immediately afterwards, Caiyue was dragged away by the servants.

Shen Yanfeng sat back in the chair trembling all over, then raised his hand and stroked the wrinkles on the clothes with trembling fingers. Suddenly he picked up the clothes and threw them to the ground with force.

The hope that had finally built up in him seemed to suddenly vanish into nothingness.

Jiang Sujin, it would be great if you really planned all this!

After a long while, he suddenly appeared in the dungeon.

Caiyue had been tortured to death at this point, but she still held on to those words without changing them at all.

"If you tell the truth, I will reward you with ten thousand taels of gold."

Caiyue lay on the ground with red eyes, and said in a trembling voice: "I did not lie, and I don't know what the master wants me to confess."

Upon hearing this, Shen Yanfeng couldn't help but close his eyes.

The hope that had just risen in his heart became a joke.

"Forget it, let her go!"

"Also... give her another 1,000 taels of silver."

She was Su Jin's personal maid, and he shouldn't treat her badly.

Caiyue said in a trembling voice: "Thank you very much, sir."

Shen Yanfeng: "Since you are the dowry maid of the Jiang Mansion, take the silver and go back to the Jiang Mansion!"

"Thank you very much, sir!"

This time she was finally out of danger. Although she lost half her life, fortunately Lord Shen believed her.

After a round of inspection, Jiang Sujin found that there were many merchants passing by here, and all of them were wealthy.

If she could open an inn with unique features, with the first floor used as a hotel and the second floor as an inn, the business would surely be booming.

After thinking about this, she began to walk the streets looking for door curtains.

Finally, she bought a two-story building at the intersection near the pier.

This place is close to the pier, and if it can be opened, business will definitely be good.

After buying the small building, she began to arrange its decoration.

In order to make the inn look unique, she spent a lot of money to decorate it inside and out.

In addition, she also built a stage on the first floor of the inn so that guests could enjoy opera while eating.

In order to find a good chef, she offered a high salary and tasted the dishes herself.

After interviewing more than a hundred chefs, we finally selected three with superb cooking skills.

Of course, her high-profile business practices and the fact that she was a foreigner naturally attracted the attention of the locals.

Especially Mr. Qiu, who also owns an inn. Mr. Qiu is considered a famous rich man in this area.

Although he looks tall and mighty, he is extremely afraid of his wife.

Because he has connections with the royal relatives in the capital, he is considered to be a person with connections above, so the officials here are all courteous to him.

That morning, he suddenly had an idea and brought his men to Jiang Sujin's inn.

Jiang Sujin came to Zhuhai and got a new name, Mo Niang, and the managers called her Boss Mo.

Others heard that her family had suffered a disaster outside, so they came to Zhuhai.

Just the fact that he was able to buy such a big house and open such a large inn shows that his financial resources are quite strong.

When Boss Qiu came in, Jiang Sujin was instructing his servants on how to place the ornaments.

When Boss Qiu saw the young and beautiful Jiang Sujin, he couldn't help but widen his eyes.

He always thought that his wife was the most beautiful person and never thought that there would be someone more beautiful than his wife.

"You are the owner of this inn?"

Before Jiang Sujin could say anything, the steward quickly leaned over and whispered in her ear for a while.

Through the manager's words, she also learned who the person on the other side was.

"Boss Qiu, I've heard a lot about you!"

Boss Qiu glanced at her, then cleared his throat and said, "Boss Mo is so young, but he can actually do such a big business. It's really not easy!"

Jiang Sujin cleared her throat and said in a deep voice: "I just look young, but I'm actually not young anymore."

Boss Qiu: "I heard that Boss Mo's man is gone, is that right?"

Jiang Sujin's face darkened immediately after hearing this: "Boss Qiu really doesn't hold back when he speaks."

Boss Qiu: "Of course. With my current financial resources, I don't need to please anyone."

Jiang Sujin couldn't help but raise her eyebrows when she heard this: "Boss Qiu is right. I'll trouble you to take care of Mo Niang's inn in the future."

A strong dragon cannot defeat a local snake. When you meet such a person, you naturally have to be humble and submissive.

Upon hearing this, Boss Qiu couldn't help but smile and said, "Okay, okay, since Madam Mo said so, I will naturally take care of her."

When Boss Qiu was laughing happily, suddenly a lady dressed very elegantly and luxuriously walked in.

As soon as she came in, she saw Boss Qiu smiling at a vixen, so she walked straight over and twisted Boss Qiu's ear.

"Ouch, Madam, spare me, it hurts!"

"When I stop keeping an eye on you, you start to act naughty. Your big teeth are about to fall to the ground. How can I not be happy to death!" As she said this, she let go of him with force.

Boss Qiu covered his ears and said, "Madam, you are innocent. I did nothing."

Madam Qiu glanced at Jiang Sujin, then snorted and said, "Oh, this young lady is the new widow in our area?"

Men cannot stand to hear the word "widow". Once they hear these two words, they will immediately smell the scent and come looking for her.

When Jiang Sujin heard this, her face instantly darkened: "Sister-in-law is so straightforward. Yes, I am the new widow."

Madam Qiu snorted coldly and said, "Oh, you are such a sharp-tongued person. No wonder you are a widow at such a young age."

Jiang Sujin: "Sister-in-law, what you said is true. There are many women with sharp tongues, and not all of them are widows. Just like sister-in-law, she is also sharp-tongued. Isn't Boss Qiu living well?"

Upon hearing this, Madam Qiu couldn't help but widen her eyes. "You...you're new here, but you're so capable. Do you know who's behind our Boss Qiu? If you dare to offend us, I'll tell you and scare you to death."

Jiang Sujin couldn't help but raise her eyebrows when she heard this: "Oh, sister-in-law, why don't you tell me about it? Maybe I know him."

Boss Qiu: "Don't talk nonsense. This matter cannot be spread outside."

Madam Qiu: "Why can't we tell others about it? If you don't tell others, she will think we are bragging."

Jiang Sujin smiled gently and said, "Mo Niang is all ears."

Madam Qiu snorted coldly and said, "Do you know the Shen family? They are royal relatives."

When Jiang Sujin heard this, her face instantly turned stiff.
