After rebirth, the Queen of Madness has gone against the will of Heaven
Chapter 93 Take the initiative to ask for help
Yu Qingli nodded slightly. What a good servant. In her previous life, she trusted her so much that she fell into such a desperate situation.
But now, Yu Qingli had already planted the seed of doubt in her heart and had become defensive. She was determined not to make the same mistake again this time.
Looking at Mei Hong's sincere smile, Yu Qingli felt even colder. Why didn't she see the viciousness beneath this smile in her previous life?
"Miss, Miss..." Seeing Yu Qingli in a daze, Mei Hong called softly.
Yu Qingli came back to her senses, "Nothing, Meihong, let's go see father."
Mei Hong lowered her head slightly, seeming a little nervous. After a while, she spoke, "Does this servant want to go with us?"
Yu Qingli glanced at Mei Hong indifferently, secretly guessing the reason why she didn't dare to see Yu Zhengsha. She thought it should be related to Murong Feng. Could it be that Yu Zhengsha already knew about their relationship?
Thinking of this, Yu Qingli said: "If you don't want to go, go back and rest first!"
Mei Hong showed gratitude and bowed to Yu Qingli, "Thank you, Miss!"
Yu Qingli actually had her own plans. Today, she was going out. If she remembered the time correctly, the annual Luoyang Chamber of Commerce would be held today, and she had to take this opportunity to find a reliable partner.
Such cooperation will be very necessary in the upcoming rainy season, but for the sake of confidentiality, she does not want Meihong to know about this.
Now that Meihong was unwilling to go with her, it saved her a lot of worry.
Thinking of this, Yu Qingli's steps became much lighter. Next, what she had to do was to talk about this matter with Yu Zhengsha in a legitimate way.
Yu Qingli guessed what Yu Zhengsha was thinking and put on a slightly sad face.
The weather was getting increasingly hot and humid, and the flowers and trees in the garden were all wilting, hanging their heads listlessly, without their former vitality. The increasingly dense dark clouds in the sky seemed to be warning that a rainstorm with thunder would soon arrive.
Yu Qingli hurried towards Yu Zhengsha's study. At this time, Yu Zhengsha should be practicing calligraphy. He was a very rigorous person, and his daily life pace was arranged in an orderly manner. He would never allow anyone to disrupt this pace.
Sure enough, before entering the study, I saw Jiang Bai standing respectfully at the door from a distance, probably waiting for Yu Zhengsha to finish writing before going in to report something.
Yu Qingli was a little surprised. Jiang Bai, who was always very busy, was so leisurely today that he was actually here guarding the door for his father. This was really strange.
Jiang Bai seemed to have been waiting for a long time. After seeing Yu Qingli, he hurriedly went up to her and bowed respectfully.
"Miss, you are finally here, the master is waiting for you inside!"
"Father knows I'm coming?" Yu Qingli said calmly. Judging from the inexplicable appearance of the shop owners and the backtracking of their words, there must be someone behind this matter, otherwise how could they work together to force her to pay compensation in one go.
Jiang Bai did not continue speaking. His face was tense and it was unclear what he was thinking. He lowered his eyebrows and turned sideways to let Yu Qingli in. "Miss, you will know when you go in."
Yu Qingli didn't ask any more questions, as she had nothing to ask. She straightened her clothes, raised her head slightly, and walked into the study with a calm demeanor.
It was still as bright and clean as I remembered, even the position of the Clivia by the window had not changed. Even though he had moved to a new house, the appearance of his father's study was still no different from the original Yu Mansion.
Yu Zhengsha stood behind the desk, slightly bent over, with his upper body straight. His well-maintained hands tightly grasped a high-quality wolf-hair brush. Thick black ink spread across the flat rice paper. Each stroke was as vigorous and powerful as ever, without the slightest flaw because of Yu Qingli's arrival.
"Come on, sit down first!"
Yu Zhengsha's voice was dull, but it carried an irrefutable majesty. The arrogance in his tone made Yu Qingli somewhat accustomed to it.
Yu Qingli found a chair and sat down properly, waiting for Yu Zhengsha's questions. Since he had been waiting for her for a long time, he must have something to say to her, right?
Yu Zhengsha's writing finally ended with a beautiful stroke. He placed the brush on the pen holder and blew towards the rice paper. Yu Qingli glanced at it and saw four powerful characters written on it, "Haoran Zhengqi". She pulled her lips with a hint of irony.
Of course, this expression was extremely subtle, so subtle that Yu Zhengsha would not notice it.
Yu Zhengsha finally raised his head and walked to the washbasin that had been prepared nearby. He washed his hands with clean water and wiped them clean with a towel. After doing all this, he slowly walked to Yu Qingli and sat down on the chair opposite her.
"I heard that the shop owners came to the mansion to cause trouble?"
There was a hint of questioning in Yu Zhengsha's tone, and it was clear that he had known about this matter for a long time.
Yu Qingli nodded slightly, her eyes filled with worry. She stood up slowly and said with some hesitation, "I don't know what's wrong with those shopkeepers. They don't want to keep their promises. They even offered to give me all the shops..."
"So how did you do it?"
Yu Qingli looked distressed and bit her lip in embarrassment. "I don't know how to handle this properly, but I figured we couldn't let them continue making trouble outside the Yu Mansion. It would ruin my father's reputation, so I agreed to their terms."
Yu Zhengsha had a blank expression on his face, and it was hard to tell whether he was satisfied or dissatisfied with the matter she handled. The atmosphere became silent for a moment. Yu Qingli clenched her fists slightly, and her palms were full of sweat!
After a long while, Yu Zhengsha finally spoke, "This is your first time taking over such a large shop, and it's great that you can handle this matter so calmly. But you've spent so much money at once, haven't you considered the expenses of this mansion?"
Yu Qingli narrowed her eyes slightly. It turned out that he was asking her about the silver. Maybe he was worried about the source of the silver.
It was really funny. At that moment just now, she thought Yu Zhengsha had suddenly changed his personality and actually knew to take the initiative to care about her!
After all, I am still too naive!
"The money for buying the shop is the dowry left by my mother. I may not need it for the time being, so I took it out first. It will not have any impact on other expenses in the mansion."
Yu Zhengsha seemed satisfied after hearing this. "That's right. I can use the unused money for other purposes so that I don't have to face financial difficulties."
"Thank you for reminding me, my daughter now understands."
After getting the satisfactory answer he wanted, Yu Zhengsha was ready to let Yu Qingli leave, but Yu Qingli was reluctant to get up, as if she had something else to say.
"Father, there is something I need your help with."
Yu Zhengsha raised his eyebrows, seeming a little impatient, but he didn't refuse after all. He just said coldly: "Tell me, what's the matter?"
"Qingli heard that today is the annual Luoyang Chamber of Commerce, so she wants to learn some experience and lay a foundation for future store management."
"Are you going to the Luoyang Chamber of Commerce?"
"Yes, my daughter has just taken over those shops and is thinking about whether she can reopen them as soon as possible."
Yu Zhengsha was obviously a little surprised. Although he always knew that his daughter was both talented and beautiful, he never thought that she would actually be interested in business. However, this was also good. He wanted to see how she could revive those dozen or so completely useless shops?
Thinking of this, Yu Zhengsha nodded slightly. "Okay, but you can't just enter the Luoyang Chamber of Commerce. You must have an invitation letter to enter. A few days ago, I just happened to receive two. How about this, Jiang Bai will also be attending the Chamber of Commerce soon, so you can go with him."
Walking out from the darkness into the light, Yu Qingli was not afraid at all. It takes some courage to seek the skin of a tiger, not to mention that there is nothing wrong with someone leading her in.
"In that case, thank you very much, father. Qingli will definitely behave well and will never bring shame to the Yu family."
Yu Zhengsha didn't say anything else, but just called out softly, "Jiang Bai!"
Jiang Bai walked in quickly, looking respectful, "What are your orders, Master?"
"When you go to the Luoyang Chamber of Commerce later, bring the young lady with you. If you want to run a good business, you really need to go out and see the world."
Yu Qingli saluted Yu Zhengsha again. Yu Zhengsha would never stop her in such matters. Just like the annual poetry conference and various grand events, he would not stop her from attending. He would even take the initiative to ask her to participate. On the one hand, it was to increase the popularity of the three words "Yu Qingli", and on the other hand, it could also increase his face.
Yu Zhengsha is very happy to make such an investment.
Therefore, Yu Qingli was not worried about this, and she also needed such an opportunity. Moreover, she knew that without someone to lead her, she would not be able to enter the Chamber of Commerce, and she was not very familiar with some of its systems. So at this time, she naturally had to seek help from Yu Zhengsha.
The necessary display of weakness is for a more powerful attack in the future!
With Yu Zhengsha's instructions, Jiang Bai quickly agreed to this matter. Although he was a little confused, he did not show it directly.
"In that case, Qingli would like to thank Butler Jiang first. I'll be thanking you for everything."
"Miss, you are too polite. This is what I should do." Jiang Bai was as respectful as ever.
Having achieved her goal, Yu Qingli stood up with great satisfaction. "Well then, I'll go back and make some preparations. I'll see you at the gate of the mansion in half an hour."
Jiang Bai nodded and agreed. Yu Qingli bowed to Yu Zhengsha again before getting up and leaving.
Jiang Bai was puzzled until Yu Qingli disappeared from his sight. "Master, are you really going to take the young lady with you to the Chamber of Commerce? If you do that, won't the young lady know about all the stores we have in the Chamber of Commerce?"
"So what if I know? I just want to let Yu Qingli know openly how to put herself in the right position!"
