After becoming the villain's eldest sister, I take charge of the whole family

Xie Linghe suddenly opened his eyes, was stunned for a moment, and stretched himself lazily: "Get up!"

Lifting the quilt.

He changed into men's clothes, filled a basin with water, took out a wooden box from his bag, and opened it to reveal a box of brown-yellow paste.

This is the disguise cream she specially prepared.

Well, it's just aloe vera and dyeing herbs.

He scooped a large amount of it out and smeared it on his face, not forgetting his neck and hands. When he was done, he examined himself through the water mirror and nodded with satisfaction. "Even someone who knows me probably wouldn't recognize me like this."

out the door.

She walked straight to Xiangyunzhuang.

"Sir, are you buying some cloth? You've come just in time. We just got a new batch of cloth..."

Xie Linghe acted timid and uneasy, stammering, "Waiter, I have a family weaving skill. Would you like to buy it?"

Hear the words.

The waiter was stunned for a moment, then frowned: "What is it?"

"I can't show you."

Xie Linghe shook his head frantically: "Unless, unless you agree to buy it!"

The waiter's face turned cold: "Forget about not showing it to me. Judging from the way you are dressed, you don't look rich. What good things can you have?"

Hear this.

Xie Linghe's face flushed with anger as he retorted loudly, "Nonsense! My father said this is a priceless treasure."

The waiter sneered, "Priceless treasure?! You're just bragging."

Xie Linghe caught sight of someone out of the corner of his eye, but his eyes blazed at the waiter, "Boasting? Forget it if you don't believe me. I'm sure there will be someone in other weaving shops who knows the goods. Don't regret it later!"

"Ah."

The waiter said disdainfully: "Put your heart in your stomach, I will never..."

Before he could finish, a serious middle-aged man's voice sounded behind him: "What happened?"

The waiter immediately looked over, his expression becoming flattering: "Shopkeeper Yun, it's nothing, just a troublemaker. I'll chase him away right away."

"is it?"

Shopkeeper Yun said with a forced smile: "Why did I hear that this customer wanted to sell something?"

The waiter's face froze and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

"Shopkeeper Yun, I..."

Shopkeeper Yun gave him a cold look, then looked at Xie Linghe and smiled softly, "Sir, I'm the shopkeeper of Xiangyun Manor. Shall we go in and have a chat?"

Xie Linghe pretended not to notice Shopkeeper Yun's scrutiny of her. She hesitated for a long time before gritting her teeth and saying, "Okay!"

inside the house.

Shopkeeper Yun personally poured a cup of tea: "Please have some tea."

Xie Linghe took it up tremblingly, drank it in one gulp, licked his lips, and took out a piece of paper: "My father is seriously ill. This is the blueprint of the loom that my family has passed down from generation to generation. It is more useful than the looms we have now..."

opposite.

Shopkeeper Yun stared at the blueprint, his expression changing drastically: "This blueprint..."

Xie Linghe unfolded it for a second and then retracted it immediately.

Shopkeeper Yun followed suit: "Don't take it, let me take another look."

Xie Linghe clutched the blueprint and shook his head vigorously: "No, if you want to see it, you have to buy it."

Shopkeeper Yun was silent.

After a long time, he asked, "How much do you want?"

Xie Linghe spread out one hand.

Shopkeeper Yun hesitated: "Five..."

Xie Linghe said firmly, "Five taels of silver won't do. I need at least fifty taels."

"The ginseng roots used in my father's medicine cost thirty taels of silver."

Shopkeeper Yun: “…”

Actually, what I want to talk about is five hundred taels of silver.

next moment.

A hint of ecstasy flashed in his eyes, and he pretended to be embarrassed. After hesitating for a long time, he nodded: "Okay, I'll give you fifty taels."

Xie Linghe's face showed ecstasy.

"Can you show me the blueprints?"

Xie Linghe was alert: "Pay first."

Shopkeeper Yun: "...Okay."

After a cup of tea.

Xie Linghe took the silver and handed over the blueprint, and Shopkeeper Yun couldn't wait to start studying it.

She said, "I'm going to get some medicine. Goodbye."

Shopkeeper Yun looked excited and waved his hands without even looking up.

Xie Linghe strode away.

He jogged and turned several corners, but found no one following him. His timid temperament changed, and he returned to the inn with a calm expression and put the silver away.

then.

I went to the Silk Clothes Guest again.

Do the same thing.

Half an hour later, he came out of the store with another fifty taels of silver in his hand.

……

One day passed.

Xie Linghe returned to the inn exhausted. He took out a pile of silver from under the bed and placed it on the bed, covering most of the bed.

She suppressed her excitement, opened the wooden box she had bought specially, and put things in while counting.

"Ten taels, twenty taels...four hundred taels."

“Hahaha, it’s posted, posted, posted…”

She sold 50 taels of silver to each of the four medium-sized weaving workshops, which amounted to 200 taels of silver.

There were fourteen small weaving workshops left, and she only had time to visit ten of them, selling twenty taels of silver to each one, for a total of two hundred taels of silver.

All together, it’s four hundred taels of silver.

Did you lose?

Of course I lost!

But, it's worth it for safety!

That night.

After Xie Linghe finished washing up, he hugged the suitcase and fell asleep. Before he went to sleep, he worriedly told the system, "Little System, please keep an eye on the suitcase for me."

System: "Yes, host."

After receiving the answer, she quickly fell asleep.

The next day.

When I opened my eyes and regained consciousness, the first thing I did was look for the box. I didn't see it in my arms, and my heart skipped a beat. The next moment, I saw it at the end of the bed. I crawled over to open it and check. Nothing was missing, and I breathed a sigh of relief.

"Scared me!"

"I clearly remember this box was next to my pillow. When did it get to my feet?"

System: "Host, you pushed it over while you were asleep."

Xie Linghe: “…”

Am I restless in some way?

Ignore it, ignore it quickly.

next moment.

Her face wrinkled up and she gasped, "My legs are so sore and painful, I'm dying..."

One step back.

"Let me take my time~"

for a long time.

She struggled to get up, changed her clothes, washed her face and hands, looked at her clean self, and nodded with satisfaction.

Go out.

Checked out directly.

Carrying my luggage and suitcases, I first went to a clothing store and bought a complete set of clothes.

She wore a white cloud-patterned satin coat, a tulle outer cover, and a pair of cloud-patterned boots.

Looking in the bronze mirror, Xie Linghe was smug: What a handsome gentleman! He is indeed my...

Paid the money.

Ten taels of silver.

Xie Linghe felt a slight pain in his heart.

then.

I went to a jewelry store and bought myself a jade hairpin and a gold bracelet for my second sister. Xiao Ai bought a hairpin with a ruby ​​and gold beads, and Nini bought a silver lock for longevity.

"Where are the four little brats~"

"never mind!"

"I can't be too partial, I still have to buy a gift to deal with it."

then.

She chose the cheapest Jinbu in the store, with four tassels of different colors.

The jade hairpin, gold bracelet, pearl flower and longevity lock cost a total of fifty taels of silver.

The total cost of the forbidden steps is five taels of silver.

Back and forth.

Sixty-five taels of silver are gone.

Paid the money.

With the waiter's warm farewell, she took the wooden box and entered the largest silver shop in Suzhou Prefecture, which was also the imperial bank where she deposited the silver last time.

I saved three hundred taels.

There were six fifty-liang silver notes in total.
