Now that he had made up his mind, Jiang Fugui assigned some tasks to Shantu and Shanying respectively. Shantu was to go to the black market to get some silver bills, and then go to buy more raw materials and medicinal materials, while Shanying was to go to buy more small white porcelain jars.

In the afternoon, the two maids went about their own business, and Jiang Fugui became a idler with nothing to do, so she chose to take a nap.

When the two maids returned home one after another, they both brought back the same news.

This morning, the news spread throughout the streets and alleys that the fourth daughter of the wealthy Jiang family spent 30 million taels of gold to gamble on stones and bought a large stone.

However, nothing came out of this big stone, so the gambling on the stone failed. Fortunately, the Jiang family has a rich family background and can still provide a bottom line...

The fourth young lady of the Jiang family became famous almost overnight, and the news even reached the Shangjing Palace and the ears of Emperor Xingwen and other nobles.

At this point, Jiang Huagui naturally could not clarify that she was helping the Fifth Prince to buy the stone. After all, it was their Jiang family's money and fingerprints that were paid in the end.

Even if I finally tell it, I guess no one will believe it...

Jiang Weishi and Jiang Huagui are now like dumb people swallowing bitter herbs, unable to express their grievances, let alone go around clarifying their grievances.

Before Jiang Fugui could digest this big news, a little maid came to Beili Garden and told him that dinner should be eaten in the lobby in the front yard.

Jiang Fugui asked the little maid indirectly, "Is it Grandmother's intention or Second Uncle's intention?"

The little maid replied respectfully: "Second Miss, it is the Second Master's order."

Jiang Fugui understood what he said and nodded: "I understand. You go first."

After the ceremony, the little maid left Beili Garden.

Shantu looked at the little maid's back and said thoughtfully, "Second Master should know what happened in Piaomiao Linglong Pavilion, right?"

"Not only does my second uncle know about this, but my grandmother should know about it too. Three or four hours of work and spending over thirty-two million taels of gold is no joke."

Jiang Fugui was lying on the chaise longue, with a look of obvious gloating on his face.

Shantu cleared his throat and whispered to Jiang Fugui, "Miss, please be more restrained for a while. Don't let the old lady and the second master see anything."

"Yeah, I know, I know."

Before going to the front yard lobby, Jiang Fugui specially changed into a green dress and wore two gold hairpins on her head for the first time.

Later, when she arrived at the front yard lobby, no one from the second house had arrived yet. Only Old Lady Jiang and Jiang Shusen were chatting.

When Nanny Qingyun saw Jiang Fugui, she reminded Old Lady Jiang. While speaking, the latter waved at her and motioned for her to sit next to her.

Jiang Fugui bowed obediently to Old Lady Jiang and Jiang Shusen, then sat down below Old Lady Jiang and listened to the two continue chatting.

However, Jiang Fugui secretly glanced at Jiang Shusen's expression for a while, and it was indeed not very good. His brows were slightly frowned, and he seemed vaguely unhappy.

Come to think of it, in half a night, nearly half of the family's belongings were gone. No one would be happy about this.

Aunt Dong arrived later with Jiang Zihai. After paying their respects at the door, she and Jiang Fugui exchanged glances, and then she took her son to sit next to Jiang Shusen.

Of course, she sat in the back seat, and the front seats were naturally reserved for Jiang Wei's mother and daughter and others.
