The mistress is mighty, bringing 88 dowries to flatten the Marquis's mansion

Ruan Shuyan: “…”

She really didn't come here with Ruan Shuhuan.

But judging from Ruan Shuhuan's words, she probably didn't see the person following her.

In other words, those people were not standing up for Ruan Shuhuan. If that were the case, then it would be useful.

She put away her thoughts and said calmly, "You think too much. I just came to the garden to enjoy the flowers."

Ruan Shuhuan chuckled, "You don't need to explain. We all know some things. I just didn't expect you to be so shameless as to come to Prince Duan's mansion. Aren't those comments in the capital enough to give you a headache?"

"You mean the marriage exchange talk?"

Ruan Shuyan pointed out the key point, and a hint of mockery flashed across her eyes and disappeared very quickly.

"Speaking of exchange marriages, I really can't understand why my sister, since she decided to exchange marriages, would regret it halfway and return to the Hou Mansion?"

In the two marriages, the Xie family originally belonged to her, and the Hou Mansion belonged to Ruan Shuhuan.

In her previous life, Ruan Shuhuan spent a lot of effort to change their marriage, which led to her unhappiness and death in the second half of her life.

But in this life, Ruan Shuhuan changed her mind, but also ruined her reputation.

Thinking of this, Ruan Shuyan glanced at the place where several people were hiding, and let her add fuel to the fire.

Ruan Shuhuan didn't know what she was thinking, and said proudly, "I was supposed to marry into the Hou Mansion, how could I regret it halfway? But my sister said this, could it be that you are unhappy in the Xie family and miss the Hou Mansion again?"

At this point, Ruan Shuhuan smiled, with an indescribable weirdness in her eyes.

"It's a pity that since the bridal sedan left the Hou Mansion, you have lost the chance to become a concubine. Now you can only follow Xie Yuchun and rot in the Xie family, waiting for the Xie family's reputation to collapse. I will go further than you."

What strange words!

Ruan Shuyan frowned slightly. Is there something wrong with Ruan Shuhuan's brain?

She put away her thoughts and said in a loud voice, "Sister, what you said is wrong. As the principal wife of the Xie family, why should I go to the Hou Mansion to be a concubine? In your eyes, is the identity of a principal wife not worth mentioning? No wonder the bridal sedan was mistakenly carried into the Hou Mansion before, and sister insisted on becoming a concubine for the prince of the Hou Mansion. It turns out that..."

Ruan Shuyan showed a look of realization, and she paused in the middle of her words, and then suddenly realized and turned into fear: "Sister, please don't mention these things in front of outsiders. You don't care about your reputation, but I do."

The people hiding in the dark listened to the conversation, and all of them were surprised. Why is there still a noble lady who wants to be a concubine? And listening to the words about the sedan chair just now...

The bridal sedan was carried in the wrong direction, or was it Ruan Shuhuan who did it?

This is a big event in Beijing, they heard the truth!

Ruan Shuhuan finally realized that something was wrong. She didn't know where the problem lay, but she subconsciously refuted it.

"I know that my sister feels unhappy about my marrying up, but I am the Crown Prince's wife of the Marquis's Mansion. How could I be thinking about the position of a concubine? It seems that my sister's words are implicit and implicit. Could it be that she looks down on concubines? But concubines are also human beings. How can we distinguish between the superior and the inferior when we are the same human beings?"

The wind blew by, and Ruan Shuyan slightly bent her eyebrows and eyes: "Sister's words are really deafening."

She pointed out that the bridal sedan had been replaced, and originally wanted to use a few noble ladies in secret to spread the news, but she didn't expect Ruan Shuhuan to bring up the matter of the concubine and say such things.

But this is a banquet at Prince Duan's mansion, and the guests are all the principal wife and daughters. Ruan Shuhuan is... digging her own grave.

"The Crown Princess is so generous."

"Such a generous princess, I'm sure Prince Qi will be happy."

Several noble ladies hiding in the dark came out and looked at Ruan Shuhuan with sarcastic eyes.

Finished!

Ruan Shuhuan's figure swayed. She thought Ruan Shuyan was going after the bridal sedan, but she didn't expect...

Shame, anger...

Various emotions surged up in her mind, and she opened her mouth: "You guys are joking, I just, just..."

She tried to explain, but the noble lady present simply ignored her and talked to Ruan Shuyan as if nothing had happened.

The disregard of several people was sharper than words.

In the next few days, the mystery of the Ruan sisters' bridal sedan and Ruan Shuhuan's remarks spread throughout the capital.

"Miss, there are too many discussions about marriage exchange outside. If this continues, I'm afraid it will affect your reputation."

Mother Lai's face was full of worry. She went out to collect the accounts this morning, and wherever she went, she heard people talking about her young lady. The more she heard, the more nervous she became.

Ruan Shuyan flipped through the account book and said nonchalantly: "It doesn't matter, let them say what they want. Is the price of the rice shop too high?"

Lai's mother went forward to take a look and said: "Yes, it is a bit high, but the price has increased recently. The purchase price is high, so the selling price is also high."

Ruan Shuyan raised her eyes slightly. It was already May. In another month, the crops would be harvested in some places. By then, the imperial court would certainly allow the refugees to return to their hometowns to sow seeds.

Similarly, when new rice comes out, the price of old rice will definitely drop.

"Ask the rice shop to lower the price. New rice will be out soon. There's no need to sell it too expensively."

Mother Lai was confused: "Even if new rice comes out, the price of this old rice is..."

"We need fame now."

As soon as these words came out, Lai's mother fell silent: "I'll ask someone to pass the message on."

As he was speaking, Xie Yuchun pushed the door open and walked in: "What message do you want to pass on?"

Mother Lai bowed and turned to leave.

Ruan Shuyan closed the account book and said, "I plan to lower the price of rice in the shop."

She didn't mention the arrival of new rice, but Xie Yuchun understood the key point as soon as she thought about it.

"I see that other shops in Beijing have no intention of lowering their prices. If you lower the prices now, aren't you afraid of losing money?"

Ruan Shuyan curved her eyebrows and said, "It's hard for the common people. I just made a little less money, so how can it be a loss?"

Xie Yuchun was startled, then suddenly laughed: "I took it for granted. By the way, the opinions in Beijing..."

He hesitated, not knowing whether he should continue.

Ruan Shuyan poured a cup of tea and handed it to Xie Yuchun: "Just listen to those remarks, as long as you and I know the facts, that's enough."

Xie Yuchun thought so too, so he took the tea and then took out a hairpin from his bosom.

"I'll put the hairpin on Madam."

"it is good."

The atmosphere here is harmonious.

In the Marquis's Mansion, Ruan Shuhuan was kneeling on the ground, and the Marquis's wife was sitting at the top with an extremely cold look in her eyes.

"Now the whole capital is talking about your words, Ruan Shuhuan, you really make our family proud."

"Mother, that's Ruan Shuyan..."

"boom!"

The teacup fell to the ground, directly echoing Ruan Shuhuan's words.

The Marquis's wife said in a cold tone: "No matter what the reason is, you must restore the lost face of the Marquis's mansion. Otherwise, I will ask my son to divorce you!"
