Royal daughter-in-law makes money

Chapter 25

"When have you ever seen your young lady suffer a loss?" Qiao Anan asked with a smile.

"That's right, our young lady, she is a very powerful person!" Dongmei said proudly.

"Okay, stop flattering me. You guys will be of marriageable age next year, so you better keep your eyes open and choose a good husband." Qiao Anan said with a smile. Coincidentally, the servants and maids around her were not of that age yet.

However, you cannot ignore getting married just because you are not old enough.

After all, if you wait until the situation becomes critical before choosing, you probably won’t have enough time to carefully observe the other person’s character.

"Miss, I don't want to get married." Dongmei said with a pout.

"If you don't get married, you will have to serve in the army for three years and then accept the man assigned to you by the official media? What if he is blind and lame, would you be willing?" Qiao Anan asked with a smile.

"I don't want it!" Dongmei was terrified at this time. She didn't want that blind and lame husband. She wanted a handsome husband.

"Then find it yourself. Don't worry, once you find it, your young lady will make the decision for you!" Qiao Anan said with a smile.

"Miss, why don't you give me some more monthly salary so that I can buy a handsome husband?" Dongmei's eyes suddenly turned and she said in a flattering way.

"Oh? Our Dongmei wants to buy a handsome husband?" Qiao Anan asked with ill intention as she looked at Beiluo who came in from outside.

"Of course. I also want to buy a handsome husband like you do, young lady!" Dongmei didn't notice Beiluo outside and was talking excitedly.

"Our Dongmei has made great progress!" Qiao Anan couldn't help but laugh.

Don't think she doesn't know that Beiluo is interested in Dongmei.

"That's why we should emulate the young lady." Dongmei said proudly.

"Then you have to make good money. A lady needs one million taels of silver to buy a husband. Even if I sell you, I won't make one million taels of silver." Bei Luo said unhappily from behind.

"Smelly Beiluo, what nonsense are you talking about? The young lady bought a prince. Do you think I can buy a prince back?" Dongmei said dissatisfiedly!

"It seems that someone is quite self-aware." Bei Luo couldn't help but say sarcastically.

"Stop talking about me. You'll be seventeen next year." Dongmei snorted and ignored Beiluo.

"I'm so handsome, how could I not find a wife?" Bei Luo said dissatisfiedly.

"You are the one who can find a wife, but you have to find Da Ma Lian." Dongmei didn't know why she felt a little unhappy.

"Okay, stop arguing, what's the situation with Beiluo outside now?" Qiao Anan asked.

"Miss, we have already publicized the incident of Miss Lin smashing things in our shop as you instructed." Bei Luo quickly gave up the idea of arguing with Dongmei and replied respectfully.

"Well, keep watching." Qiao Anan also knew that it might not be so easy to get the money from the Lin family.

But so what? I can get it back eventually.

"Miss, our people saw Jingzhao Prefecture Governor Yu Hongkang go to the Lin family." Bei Luo remembered another thing and said quickly.

"The eldest daughter of the Lin family is engaged to Yu Jinghua, the eldest son of Yu Hongkang, the prefect of Jingzhao Prefecture. It is normal for her to go." Qiao Anan didn't think that Yu Hongkang would dare to take the case of the Lin family.

"Miss, do we need to ask the second prince for help?" Dongmei thought, so what if the Lin family is the prime minister, their future son-in-law is still the second prince.

"It's just a small matter, so I won't bother His Royal Highness the Second Prince." Qiao Anan felt that it was an overreaction to ask the Second Prince to take action for such a small matter.

"But Miss, what if the government doesn't accept our papers?" Bei Luo mentioned another concern.

"If it doesn't work, let Dad go to the palace to complain to the emperor." Qiao Anan said with a smile. After all, they spent one million taels of silver to fill the national treasury.

However, Qiao Anan remembered another thing. It seems that she still needs to find a useful backer for the Qiao family.

After all, there are scholars, farmers, merchants and artisans. Although people in this dynasty did not look down on merchants, how could they survive without a backer?

But how can I find such a backer?

After all, there are not many people who are more powerful than the Lin family.

Qiao Anan thought again of the problem of the empty treasury.

If he could find a way to fill the national treasury, would the emperor support the Qiao family?

Qiao Anan thought that as long as the emperor was not stupid, he would definitely agree to this decision.

After all, no one can compare to the Qiao family when it comes to making money, otherwise the Qiao family would not be the richest family in Chu Yuan Kingdom.

Qiao Anan thought that she had to find time to go to the palace.

Second Prince's Mansion

"Your Highness, are you going to the Qiao family today?" Eunuch Hu asked, bending down.

"Go to the military camp." Chu Haojue said without thinking.

Eunuch Fu was stunned and wondered why the second prince didn't go find the eldest daughter of the Qiao family?

"Your Highness, shouldn't you go to the Qiao family to see Miss Qiao first?" Eunuch Fu said tiredly.

"After all, Miss Qiao has suffered so much injustice from the Lin family. You should go and comfort her." Eunuch Fu advised again.

"Father will seek justice for him." Chu Haojue said.

Eunuch Fu could only stand by and worry.

My master really has no mercy on women.

Yuxiu Palace

"Your Majesty heard that Miss Lin smashed everything in Miss Qiao's shop today." Aunt Qiu whispered.

"Oh, what did Qiao Anan do to make Miss Lin angry?" Concubine Xian asked indifferently.

"Your Majesty, I heard that Miss Lin went there because she was angry that Miss Qiao had snatched her marriage away." Aunt Qiu told the truth without hiding anything.

"Hmph, you deserve it." Empress Xian said indifferently.

"Your Majesty heard that Miss Lin smashed all the things in Nong Yuxuan, which cost a total of 250,000 taels of silver. If this silver was given to His Royal Highness the Second Prince, it would definitely be enough to renovate the Second Prince's mansion." Nanny Qiu said with some heartache.

"What? Two hundred and fifty thousand taels of silver?" Empress Xian couldn't sit still when she heard the amount.

God knows the treasury is empty, how much can be done with 250,000 taels of silver?

Lin Ruyi is such a spendthrift.

At this time, Empress Xian felt somewhat fortunate that such a daughter-in-law was not promised to her son.

"Your Majesty, I heard a few days ago that Miss Qiao sent a lot of good things to the military camp." Aunt Qiu said again.

"What did she send over?" Empress Xian asked curiously.

"I heard that Miss Qiao sent food and meat to the soldiers in the army." Nanny Qiu said quickly with a smile.

"She still has some conscience." Empress Xian said somewhat stubbornly.

"Your Majesty heard that Miss Qiao also sent silver to His Highness." Nanny Qiu, following the Second Prince's instructions, also told this matter.

"Hmph, isn't it just showing off how much money you have?" Although Empress Xian was satisfied with this matter, she still said stubbornly.
