Awesome! My best friend traveled through time and space and became the infrastructure queen
Chapter 49: Preparing to Blackmail Him
"Mother, you're worrying too much. I'm just being kind."
Su Chengnan smiled and agreed with what the other party said.
Ever since cooperating with Lu Chaofeng, Han no longer poses a threat to Su Chengnan. As the eldest daughter of the Su family, she naturally has all the etiquette to respect her stepmother. But if she obeys Han's wishes in everything, she will lose her position as the head of the family. The women of the Su family will be trapped in this palm-sized courtyard, living off their savings and drifting with the wind and rain.
"My sister has outstanding craftsmanship. Since she has won the prince's praise this time, maybe next time we will have more opportunities to use her craftsmanship to do something."
But when Han heard this, she became even angrier.
"What else do you want to do?!"
"I told you to take all the money the Marquis left behind, but you refused to listen. Now you're thinking about making money?"
Han slammed her hand on the table and glared at them. Su Chengnan's eyelids twitched, wondering how Han knew they wanted to do business.
"Mother, what you said is true. Some money is definitely safer without it than with it. You must understand this principle. As for making money, in the long run, it must be done."
"I can't control what you want to do. But you can't mess around with your sister!"
"Lin Hua is a member of the Su family, so naturally she has to take responsibility. As long as she can contribute to the Su family, I don't think there is any problem."
"Do you still have any respect for worldly etiquette?!"
Han glared at Su Chengnan, and their eyes met in the air, neither of them willing to give in!
"Mother, you are too kind! Now that Master Lu has spoken, it would be inappropriate for us not to go. If you are worried, then let Nanny Han accompany you."
Nanny Han tactfully interrupted and said, "This old servant is willing to serve you, Madam."
She had actually privately advised Han Shi many times to stop being so stubborn and disapproving of Su Chengnan. Without the eldest lady's help, they wouldn't have had such a comfortable journey. Moreover, now they were connected to the Ningyuan Palace. Regardless of what Prince Lu was up to, he treated the young lady differently. The Su Mansion was also benefiting from this. It was a pity that the lady was always so stubborn. Alas.
"I won't disturb my mother's rest. We will try to go and come back early."
As soon as Su Chengnan finished speaking, Lin Hua hurriedly said, "Mother, take a rest. We are leaving. Come, let's go together, Nanny Han."
"Yes."
The three of them left together.
Only Han stayed in the room, feeling depressed.
……
Han followed the two men in the car, while Uncle Fu and Bingsan drove. Yier and the others followed in the crowd. Jiayi wanted to follow, but Su Chengnan asked him to stay.
"Eldest sister, do you think we should extort some money from Lu Chaofeng?"
"Of course."
"How much is appropriate to extort? One thousand taels?"
"Then you have too little confidence in your own skills! You should get at least 10,000 taels!"
Nanny Han sat nearby, listening in terror. What?! She dared to ask for ten thousand taels for a single pastry? She couldn't help but worry, would the prince kick them all out? This young lady was truly clueless, relying on her beauty to act recklessly, unafraid of angering the prince and ending her future. Alas, she was still young and impulsive, and had a shallow mind.
Su Chengnan noticed the change in Nanny Han's expression, but she didn't say much. She had already figured it out. If she wanted the Su family to live a good life in the future, she shouldn't care about the opinions of these people. She should just throw money at them. This was the most effective way.
Hey, if you want to throw money at it, then you'd better sharpen your knife now...
"Xu..."
The carriage stopped at the gate of the villa.
The doorman had received the news long ago. After verifying the identity, he directly removed the threshold of the side door and let Uncle Fu drive the carriage directly in.
Su Chengnan did not show up throughout the whole process until he entered the yard.
Nanny Han got out of the car first, then helped the two young ladies down. As soon as they were standing firmly, a servant came over to invite them in.
Su Chengnan followed them inside, and after passing several hot spring pools, they went straight into the garden.
"The hot springs here are well built." Su Linhua looked around interestingly, without any scruples in her eyes.
Su Chengnan nodded, "Yeah, everything is good if you have money."
"Miss Su, what you said is quite true."
At this time, Lu Chaofeng appeared wearing a thick white fur coat, and a dark long gown with gold embroidery inside. His almost perfect face was white with a rosy glow, making him look even more charming.
What a shame! Lu Chaofeng's face should be in movies. He was born for the big screen. Oh, what a shame, such a pity.
Su Chengnan shook his head regretfully, which made Lu Chaofeng a little confused. He looked over inquiringly but didn't say anything else.
"My Lord, you're still as charming as ever after not seeing you for a few days."
"Well. Please sit down." Lu Chaofeng straightened his chest and raised his hand to order someone to serve tea.
The two sat down, and Nanny Han and Uncle Fu stood behind them with their hands hanging down.
Lu Chaofeng picked up the teacup nonchalantly, took a sip, and said, "Miss Su doesn't deserve a maid when she goes out? How about I give you two?"
"Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. I am nostalgic and used to having the services of old people. I find it considerate, so I will not trouble you."
"Hehe," Lu Chaofeng chuckled and continued drinking tea.
Su Chengnan found this person baffling. He wondered what had happened to Uncle Fu and Nanny Han that had offended him. He immediately disdained their age?! It was as if he wouldn't age. It was really interesting.
Su Linhua's gaze jumped back and forth between her and Lu Chaofeng several times. She suddenly smiled, feeling that she was a little redundant.
"Uncle Fu, Mammy, you two can go down first."
"Miss, this..." Nanny Han hesitated.
But Uncle Fu bowed without thinking and said, "Yes, we will wait in the corridor. Miss, please let me know if you need anything."
"Okay, let's go."
As the two walked away, Lu Chaofeng put down his teacup and suddenly said, "Let's get down to business."
"Okay." Su Chengnan nodded, "Please write a visiting card for me."
"I can help you, but what can I give you in exchange?"
"The thank-you gift is still in front of you. You are enjoying it."
She raised her chin and motioned him to look at the plate of steamed cake in front of him. He had already eaten half of it. Did he still want to deny his debt?
"The Queen Mother is looking for Sun Liangyuan. Do you think there is still hope for you?"
what? !
Su Chengnan's eyelids jumped, "The person the Queen Mother wants? Then I have to take Mr. Sun away now."
Lu Chaofeng curled his lips and looked at him meaningfully, "So you want me to help you, then what price are you willing to pay?"
Su Chengnan leaned back, lowered his eyes and laughed, "I'm afraid the prince has already thought it through. Why not just ask for a price?"
"But I want to ask first, are you planning to kidnap the person and give him to me, or are you planning to make him come with me by promising him a huge reward?"
Lu Chaofeng held up the cup: "Guess."
Su Chengnan shook his head and pursed his lips to test the waters: "Does the prince really believe that he can defeat the current queen mother?"
It was a double entendre, and she wanted to see how Lu Chaofeng would answer.
