After rebirth, I married the emperor's uncle and overthrew my ex-husband's kingdom

"People's minds are hard to predict, so it's better to keep this a secret for now."

"Then I will ask that little girl out to talk about this matter tomorrow."

In front of Yun Ni Fang, the prince, dressed in casual clothes, walked slowly into Yun Ni Fang with his confidants.

Lu Huaizhen and Jiang Tingxiao were about to leave, but when they saw him, they stopped in tacit understanding.

Jiang Tingxiao sneered, "Tsk! The meat has just come out of the pot and the wild dogs are coming here to smell the fragrance."

"The prince's mother's family is not strong, and he has no military power. If the emperor had not taken into account the relationship with the late queen, the position of prince would have been lost to someone else long ago. It is not surprising that he is here."

There was a hint of gloom in Lu Huaizhen's tone. Thinking of the death of his nanny, the knuckles of his fingers holding the heater turned slightly white.

"This toad still wants to eat the little girl's swan meat." Jiang Tingxiao played with the white jade ring on his thumb and smiled sarcastically.

Lu Huaizhen was not surprised at all that the prince was targeting Bai Youyou. After all, everyone in the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion valued Bai Youyou, and everyone could see it.

"It's just a daydream."

"I can't say for sure."

Jiang Tingxiao nudged him with his arm, "It is said that women value love the most. The prince looks like a vixen. If the little girl falls in love with him and wants to marry him, do you think the Duke of Zhenguo will agree?"

Lu Huaizhen frowned when he heard this.

Most women in the world are obsessed with love. Bai Youyou is still young and has not yet developed feelings, but what if she grows up?

Love is such an unpredictable thing!

When Jiang Tingxiao lowered his eyes, he accidentally saw his two index fingers unconsciously tapping the plum blossom hand warmer in his palm.

"Are you worried?"

Lu Huaizhen glanced at him indifferently, without stopping his hands.

Lu Liu has done him a favor, so he has to keep an eye on his cousin and guard the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion and never let the thieves take advantage of the opportunity.

"The girl is still young, and the prince is showing off in front of her. I'm afraid she doesn't understand the meaning of it." Jiang Tingxiao felt that his worry was unnecessary. "Besides, there's Lu Chen. He regards the people of the royal family as a scourge. There's absolutely no way he would let the little girl come into contact with the prince."

He patted Lu Huaizhen's shoulder and said, "Just put your heart back in your stomach."

Lu Huaizhen glanced at the place he had just photographed with disdain, "Let's not talk about this. The business of Zanhualou has been much worse in the past two months. Have you found out the reason?"

"It's Wanbaolou."

Jiang Tingxiao suppressed the playful expression on his face and frowned slightly, "I wonder which famous designer Wanbaolou hired to design the jewelry. The jewelry they recently released is unique and novel, and is very popular among the ladies."

Without waiting for Lu Huaizhen to ask, he added: "I have sent people to check, and we should know soon."

At the gate of Yunnifang, when the prince came out, he lowered his head and said something to his confidant, then turned and walked in another direction.

On Jixiang Street, Bai Youyou and Lu Chen were strolling on the street. Xiaoju, who was behind them, was eating a string of red candied haws with his eyes narrowed.

When they came to Yunnifang, the three walked in and were surprised to see the empty shelves.

"I'm sorry, my dear guests, but we have sold out all the soap today. If you want to buy some, please come back tomorrow."

The shopkeeper and the servant were all Jiang Tingxiao's men, and they didn't know the boss behind them, so they explained to them politely.

"Okay, we'll come back another day."

Bai Youyou suppressed her excitement and left with Lu Chen, went to the teahouse diagonally opposite, and found a secluded corner to sit down.

“I didn’t know this thing sold so well!”

Lu Chen was excited, but also felt a little regretful. "It's just that the production can't keep up. If it's possible, it won't be a problem to sell it to the whole Great Zhou!"

Lard is expensive, and shells, although cheap, are not available in the capital even if you have money. You have to go to cities along the coast to purchase them.

There are many seafood products in Yongzhou, but the capital is far away from Yongzhou. If you just want to buy a little, it will take at least two months to go back and forth, plus the travel expenses, the cost will increase a lot.

"Cousin, take a few reliable people to Yongzhou in the next two days. Once you get there, find a local caravan and buy more shells."

Lu Chen was a little embarrassed. "We have almost spent all the money we have. We can't get much money to go to Yongzhou now."

A good cook cannot cook without rice. No matter how good the way to make money is, you must have enough capital.

"I have some."

Bai Youyou took out the six thousand taels of silver contributed by Aunt Qiao and placed it in front of him.

"Here is six thousand taels. After a few days, the shop will be able to recover some funds. Then you can take all of them to Yongzhou."

Lu Chen was a little surprised when he looked at the thick stack of banknotes in front of him.

He has been going out early and coming back late these days, and he doesn't know the news that Jiang Momo brought back.

He raised his eyes and stared at his cousin who was covered in gold. "Where did you get all this silver?"

Bai Youyou raised her eyebrows and smiled, "Didn't Aunt Qiao take the previous land deed? I reported it to the Jingzhao Yin, and my grandmother paid me double the compensation to keep the peace."

"It's three times." Xiaoju interjected.

"Why do I feel that Aunt Qiao is a good person?"

Lu Chen thought of the five thousand taels of silver that Aunt Qiao had contributed before, and couldn't help but make a joke.

If it weren't for the five thousand taels of silver, it would definitely be a lot more troublesome to open a soap factory now.

Now that the follow-up investment is not enough, Aunt Qiao has found an excuse to send them money.

Bai Youyou couldn't help but laugh, "Indeed, Aunt Qiao is really our God of Wealth."

"It's the God of Wealth for young ladies."

Xiaoju was eating fruit aside, and after eating, he giggled and covered his mouth.

"Miss, the owner of Wanbaolou sent a message yesterday. Do you want to go to Wanbaolou today?"

"Go and have a look. It would be good if you can make some money."

After finishing the fruit on the table, the three of them went to Wanbao Tower together.

The shopkeeper was greeting customers. When he saw her, he was about to come over, but Bai Youyou stopped him with a look.

"Hey, cousin Youyou, are you here to choose jewelry too?"

Qiao Bing limped over and greeted Bai Youyou with a smile.

Bai Youyou nodded slightly at him, but her eyes fell on the woman who had just stood with him.

Qiao Bing looked back along her line of sight, without hiding anything, and said openly, "That's my newly married concubine Chun."

Bai Youyou was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Congratulations."

In this era, people started getting married at the age of 17 or 18, and taking concubines was not uncommon.

But she asked again: "Does my fifth sister know that you are taking a concubine?"

"she?"

When talking about Bai Yaoyao, Qiao Bing's chest was filled with anger. "She is busy currying favor with the prince, how can she care about my affairs? All she wants is to break off the engagement with me so that she can find someone better."

"hehe."

Bai Youyou remembered that Bai Yaoyao was the heroine of this world, and the prince was the hero of this world.

However, it seems that the heroine Bai Yaoyao, apart from crying and being clever, has reached the pinnacle of her life entirely by relying on the halo of the heroine.
