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

Ruan Shuyan and Lai's mother turned their heads at the same time.

Seeing the man at the door, Mother Lai immediately held the letter in her hand and bowed softly.

"I've met my uncle."

Ruan Shuyan glanced at her and asked with a smile, "Why is my husband here? Mother Lai, go get me a pot of tea."

"Yes."

Mother Lai bowed and tiptoed out.

Xie Yuchun had one hand behind his back, and his face still looked a bit pale.

Watching Lai's mother leave, he smiled and said, "Can't I come?"

Ruan Shuyan coughed lightly: "That's not the case, it's just that my husband's injury hasn't healed yet, so it's safer for him to move less."

Xie Yuchun nodded: "I understand."

After saying that, he went into the house and sat down: "Actually, I came here today to talk to you about North City."

Ruan Shuyan looked at him steadily: "My husband wants me to stay away from Beicheng and its people."

When Xie Yuchun's thoughts were pointed out, he couldn't help but put his fist to his lips.

"I know this is not appropriate, but the situation and people's hearts in North City are very complicated. You..."

He hesitated and didn't say anything else, but Ruan Shuyan understood what he meant.

"So my husband thinks that I am someone who is easily deceived."

Xie Yuchun waved his hands quickly: "No, I..."

“My husband, you don’t need to explain. I understand it in my heart, but I contacted Beicheng to save people, so I will not agree with what my husband said.”

The two men laid the matter out, but neither could convince the other.

In the end, Xie Yuchun had no choice but to give in.

"If you want to go to North City in the future, you must tell me and I will go with you."

Ruan Shuyan thought about it and felt that it was not a big deal, so she agreed.

For the next two days, Ruan Shuyan was thinking about the things in Beicheng. On the third day, she took Lai's mother to Beicheng.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I arrived at the place, I saw Ruan Shuhuan getting off the carriage of the Marquis' Mansion.

When their eyes met, Ruan Shuhuan showed a surprised look: "We are really destined to meet in North City. I wonder why my sister came here?"

The surprise on that face was so fake.

Ruan Shuyan sighed in her heart, and then smiled slightly: "Deal with some things."

"Oh? I wonder what it is. Do you need my help?"

Ruan Shuhuan acted enthusiastic and approached Ruan Shuyan while speaking.

However, Ruan Shuyan ignored her pretense, took a step back to distance herself, and then directly refused: "My things are just small matters, I don't need your help."

As he was speaking, several people came over, led by the third brother.

Before Ruan Shuyan could speak, Ruan Shuhuan came over first.

"Old man, I have prepared the medicinal materials here. Please see when North City can receive them?"

The third brother smiled and said, "We don't lack medicinal materials here anymore."

Ruan Shuhuan was startled: "There is no shortage of medicinal materials, are you sure?"

"Of course I am sure. If you have nothing else to do, please leave. We still have distinguished guests to entertain."

The third brother made a gesture to ask them to leave, which made Ruan Shuhuan almost unable to maintain the gentle expression on her face.

She gnashed her teeth and asked, "May I ask who is the distinguished guest you are talking about?"

The third brother didn't say anything, but looked straight at Ruan Shuyan.

Seeing this, Ruan Shuhuan pursed her lips, but said nothing, and turned and left.

Three days ago, she specially sent someone to inquire about Ruan Shuyan's situation. When she learned that Ruan Shuyan had ideas about Beicheng, she immediately ran over, intending to intervene. Unexpectedly, Beicheng's situation was delayed for three days, until today when she met Ruan Shuyan.

She got on the carriage and pushed open the window unwillingly. Seeing Ruan Shuyan and the third brother chatting very harmoniously, she couldn't help but grit her teeth.

She must not let Ruan Shuyan get what she wanted.

"Go home!"

The carriage drove away. Ruan Shuyan took a quick look at it and then went into the alley with the third brother.

Soon, the group sat down in a yard.

Ruan Shuyan did not delay and said straight to the point: "I came here today to talk to you about how to change North City."

The third brother was stunned for a moment: "What does Miss Ruan mean?"

"What I mean is that the Ruan family will renovate this wasteland into a shop. Anyone who wants to do business can rent it from the Ruan family. Whoever can pay off the construction costs will own the shop. What do you think?"

Ruan Shuyan looked around and saw that no one spoke for a long time, so she added: "I know you are in a difficult situation, but although all of you here are refugees from outside, you have been in the capital for so long, and you must want to live a stable life. This is a good idea."

The room fell silent again.

This time, Ruan Shuyan didn't say anything, but let them figure it out.

After an unknown amount of time, the third brother broke the silence: "Miss Ruan can really make the decision and let those shops belong to us?"

Ruan Shuyan nodded slightly: "Of course, as long as you are willing, this will definitely not be a problem."

The emperor has already set his sights on Beicheng, and a slight push from her would be enough to make the emperor agree.

More importantly, this matter was handled by Xie Yuchun, which made it more convenient for her.

The third brother exchanged glances with the others but did not agree immediately.

"We'll have to think about it again."

Ruan Shuyan raised her lips and said, "I understand, but this matter cannot be delayed for too long. I can only give you three days of free time at most."

The third brother said without hesitation: "No need, we can make a decision by tomorrow at the latest."

"Then I'll wait for your reply."

Putting this matter aside, Ruan Shuyan asked some questions about medicinal materials.

The third brother said everything one by one, and then changed the subject and talked about Wen Sheng wanting to meet her.

"Where is he?"

"Right here."

Another voice sounded, answering instead of the third brother.

Wen Sheng stepped into the room, staring at Ruan Shuyan with a pair of gloomy eyes: "I need you to prepare some medicinal herbs for me."

Ruan Shuyan raised her eyebrows slightly: "Why should I prepare herbs for you?"

"Because I know who hurt Xie Yuchun."

As soon as these words came out, everyone present changed their expressions.

Ruan Shuyan turned her head to look at the third brother: "Is this what you said? You didn't find out anything?"

The third brother's mouth twitched fiercely: "Miss Ruan, this is a misunderstanding."

Ruan Shuyan said calmly: "I don't care about any misunderstandings. You are the ones who have problems now. You must give me an explanation."

The third brother had a bitter look on his face: "Of course, we should give an explanation for this matter. Wen Sheng, tell the truth quickly, don't let Miss Ruan wait anxiously."

Wen Sheng smiled, glanced around, and said nonchalantly: "If they are impatient, it is my and her business. Miss Ruan will not compare me with them, right? If so, I will doubt Miss Ruan's purpose of coming to North City."

Their eyes met, and Ruan Shuyan's fingertips trembled slightly: "You are so sure, aren't you afraid that I will reject you?"
