Chapter 383 What’s Wrong with the People in the Outer City?
The next day, Ye Wenyan received news from the outer city. It was a letter sent by the Shi family. The content of the letter was concise and to the point: the jewelry store had been found.
She didn't delay and took Zhuier with her to go out. Before leaving, she told Madam Ji: "The Second Young Master has come to our main room. Although the Second Master and Second Madam didn't react, we still have to be careful of Ye Lianmian and don't let her quarrel with mother again."
Madam Ji nodded, "Don't worry, young lady, there is an old servant at home, nothing will happen. It's just that Ji Duo and Ji Rong have been busy monitoring the second house these days, do you want to call one back when young lady goes out?"
Ye Wenyan waved his hand and said, "What could possibly happen if I go out in broad daylight? Compared to me going out for a walk, things at home are more important."
Nanny Ji didn't say anything else. She sent them out of the yard and walked towards Qingliang Courtyard.
In fact, Ye Wenyan's worry about Ye Lianmian causing trouble was really unnecessary, and she soon realized that this worry was unnecessary. Because Ye Lianmian was no longer able to go back to the main house to cause trouble, all her thoughts were on the concubine who was about to enter the house.
Even now, people are pestering her second uncle in the front yard to say good things.
"Second uncle, you have to think about it. After the new Second Aunt comes in, how should the servants address her? Should we call her Second Madam? That would be confusing with the current Second Aunt, and it would sound confusing. But we can't call her Madam Chang, because that would sound a bit like an outsider."
Ye Jingsheng had just looked at several sets of new furniture that the servants had moved in. He was a little dissatisfied, but the servants said that this was the best he could buy because he had no money.
He had no choice but to wave his hand and ask people to move the furniture to the east yard.
Ye Lianmian took the opportunity to say, "Actually, Second Aunt has silver. Didn't she give a hundred taels to my uncle from Xiushan County? My uncle didn't take the silver. It's still in her hands! Although it's her private money, she is the mistress of the house after all. Second Uncle's marrying a concubine is also a big event in the mansion. The mistress of the house should help take care of the trivial matters. Why let Second Uncle do it himself and use grandmother's money? When the first lady was in charge, she gave a lot of her own dowry. Why didn't she give Second Aunt any?"
Ye Jingsheng made her very annoyed by what he said, but this time she was not annoyed with Ye Lianmian, but with Xiao Shubai.
Ye Lianmian saw through it and quickly continued, "The reason why the first lady added money to the public treasury is because she is completely on my father's side, because my father said that only if she takes good care of the family can he fight the war outside with peace of mind. But the way Second Aunt behaved... maybe she didn't really take Second Uncle to heart! After all, she is the legitimate daughter of the Ningguo Marquisate."
“Shut up!” Ye Jingsheng became even more annoyed and glared at Ye Lianmian fiercely, “Your arm is still broken, go back to your own room.”
Ye Lianmian was not annoyed, and nodded obediently. He just said one more sentence before leaving: "Don't worry, Second Uncle, I will definitely help the new Second Aunt after she comes into the house, and I will also take good care of Sister Wushuang. But Second Uncle, think carefully about what I said before, when the new Second Aunt comes into the house, the servants must have a name for her."
After Ye Lianmian left, Ye Jingsheng was so absorbed in what the servants in the mansion should call Chang Xueqiao that he didn't even notice Ye Wenyan and Zhuier passing by him. When he finally reacted, Ye Wenyan's carriage had already left the mansion gate.
Zhuier was a little worried: "The Second Miss is going to cause trouble again. It doesn't matter who she supports, but I'm afraid our wife will be sad again. Miss, do you think we really have no way to deal with the Second Miss?"
Ye Wenyan spread his hands, "What can I do? She is my mother's biological daughter, and my mother feels she owes her daughter, so nothing we do will be good. I just hope she can have self-awareness and stay away from us."
Zhuier was helpless, but this matter was just like what Ye Wenyan said, there was no way out, and it was useless to think too much. The carriage did not go directly to the outer city, but turned to Ying Mansion first, picking up Ying Nantian and Shangguan Xiaoya who was staying here.
The two were very happy to hear that they found the shop so quickly. Shangguan Xiaoya had even started thinking about what the shop should be called.
But in fact, Ye Wenyan has already thought of a name. It is very simple and straightforward, called - Xuanmai Jewelry.
She didn't want to give it a fancy name. The purpose of opening this jewelry store was to let people know that she, Ye Wenyan, had come here. She also wanted to leave some clues in this world for future generations so that when other branches came looking for her, they could follow the clues to find her.
Because some people were involved in the clinic, she reluctantly named it Shi Xuan. She didn't want to cooperate with anyone else in the jewelry store, so she just hung the two big words "Xuan Mai" on it.
In addition, she also prepared a pattern, which was a red spider lily. In the previous life, Mu Jingyu gave her a red spider lily, which was picked from the Yellow Spring Road. She had kept the flower in the storage space and was reluctant to use it. Later, Mu Jingyu knew about it and told her: "The red spider lily is a flower that voluntarily threw itself into hell. It was repeatedly expelled, but it still stubbornly grew by the Yellow Spring Road, immortal. When I picked it, I had already made a deal with it. It followed me to the living, and I guaranteed that its family would live forever in the Yellow Spring. So even if you use it as a trigger to stimulate your spiritual power, it will not wither."
She tried it then and found that it indeed did not wither, so for many years afterwards, she carried the flower with her and it was very useful.
The sisters of the current generation of the Five Veins family all knew about the flower, so she took out the pattern and told Ying Nantian and Shangguan Xiaoya: "Every time you make a piece of jewelry, you must leave this flower in an inconspicuous place as a mark of the Xuanmai jewelry. I have simplified this pattern and simplified it as much as possible to avoid some jewelry being too small and difficult to carve. But even after being simplified, it is still a bit complicated. I wonder if you two can complete it."
Qing Nantian took it and looked at it for a while, then nodded. "Even if it is engraved on the smallest earring, I can guarantee that it will be engraved clearly. So please rest assured, Master, there is no problem with this mark. I just don't know what the mysterious vein means?"
Shangguan Xiaoya also wanted to ask the same question, so he looked over. Unfortunately, he didn't hear much substantive answer from Ye Wenyan. She just said to the two of them: "There is no special meaning, it's just an idea of mine. But you must remember that every time you sell a piece of jewelry, you must tell the buyer this mark, just say it is the symbol of our Xuanmai jewelry. If anyone asks more in the future, just say that this was thought up by Ye Wenyan, the fourth lady of the Ye family."
The two of them didn't understand what she meant, but there was no need to understand such things, they just had to do what she said.
When they arrived at the outer city, they saw the Shi family's carriage waiting there as soon as they passed the city gate. Mrs. Shi stuck her head out of the carriage, and when she saw Ye Wenyan coming, she waved her hands happily, and got off her own carriage and climbed into Ye Wenyan's carriage.
The Shi family's maid made her feel very embarrassed, but she didn't want to discourage her wife's enthusiasm. However, seeing that the carriage was really crowded, she had to take the initiative to discuss with Ying Nantian and Shangguan Xiaoya: "Can you two get on our Shi family's carriage first? Don't worry, the carriage will always follow the fourth young lady."
Ying Nantian and his friend also felt that it would be inconvenient for two grown men like them to have both a young lady and a lady in the carriage. When the maid suggested it, they immediately agreed and hurriedly changed carriages with Madam Shi.
Madam Shi was very happy and even gave him a reward. Ying Nantian almost got angry when he saw the silver ingot stuffed into his hand. What's wrong with the people in the outer city?
Ye Wenyan was helpless. He wanted to remind Madam Shi, but he felt that Madam Shi might be just like that. Even if he reminded her, she might not remember. After all, she didn't have bad intentions. So he gave her the reward!
The jewelry shop that the Shi family found was located on the moat street in the outer city.
The so-called city defense is to protect the inner city of Lin'an. The inner city is located in the center of the outer city. When the outer city was built, a street was specially built to circle the inner city. After several dynasties and generations of development, it has now developed into the most bustling and prosperous commercial street in the outer city. At the same time, it is precisely by borrowing this bustle and prosperity that the inner and outer cities are clearly separated. Speaking of which, Shixuan Medical Clinic is actually also on the city defense street. After all, it is the Shi family's property. With the financial resources of the Shi family in the outer city, it is unlikely to open a shop outside the city defense street.
This shop has three floors. In Mrs. Shi's words, "It is the largest jewelry store in the outer city. It is separated from the Shixuan Clinic in two directions, the clinic is in the east and the jewelry store is in the west. But I thought that since we have one in the east and one in the west, we will have a foothold in both directions. This is like blocking both ends, and it will be more convenient for the fourth lady to find out any news in the future."
In addition to the three-story store, the jewelry store also has a large yard in the back. The yard is surrounded by houses, which are the workspaces for skilled craftsmen. The kitchen is also in the backyard, and there are several other rooms.
Madam Shi said, "The rooms are prepared for the servants and craftsmen. There are special maids to cook and wash clothes, so there is no need to worry about the backyard on weekdays. Even the guys at the front counter are all young men now. If the fourth young lady is interested in the future, it would be best to train some older girls to come over. After all, those who come to buy jewelry are all girls, and it is not good to have some young men selling them."
Ye Wenyan asked her, "Why didn't the previous boss invite women to the counter?"
Madam Shi stamped her feet and said, "Oh, how dare I invite you! Young girls and wives all stay at home. Who would be willing to do such a thing in the spotlight? Even if I want to, my family won't. Besides, I don't have my heart set on this jewelry store. Other shops are all male clerks anyway, so I'll just make do with it! But Fourth Miss, you have a reputation and are more reliable than merchants, so if you open a shop and want to hire a girl to work at the counter, there will definitely be someone willing to come."
When she got to this point, she realized that she had let the cat out of the bag and felt a little embarrassed. Seeing Ye Wenyan smiling at her, she stamped her feet and said, "I'll confess! This shop actually belongs to our Shi family..."
