The story of a bullied daughter's rise to power

"Guest?" the man asked in confusion.

"Yes, our young lady wants to open a tavern. If you keep a stern face, the customers will be scared away. She will be sad."

"Is... is that so?" the man was a little stunned. Lian'er looked at him, finding him adorable, and so she began to talk to him. Nearby, Yu Sheng sat in a chair, watching the scene. She chuckled softly. Then she looked at the afternoon sun, feeling incredibly comfortable. It turns out... even when you're away from your loved ones, you can still find peace.

Perhaps, Situ Yaorao's arrival was his salvation. He didn't have to make this shop so terrifying. But it could still be less painful. If it stayed like this, then even if he truly protected it, what would it mean?

Downstairs, the three of them were in perfect harmony. Lian'er kept teasing Situ Weixing, making him look dazed, like a child who had never experienced the world.

Yu Sheng, on the other hand, watched the scene with a smile. Occasionally, she would imitate Situ Yaorao and offer some advice on how to decorate the place.

When Situ Yaorao came down from upstairs, she saw this scene. For a moment, she couldn't help but chuckle: "You guys are really harmonious."

"Miss, you finally came down. This guy is just a piece of wood." Lian'er looked at Situ Yaorao aggrievedly. Situ Yaorao heard this, glanced at the very innocent Situ Weixing, and said: "Lian'er, he doesn't know anything. If you are bored, then teach him more. At least, let him know how to survive."

"Yes, miss." With Situ Yaorao's permission, Lian'er liked bullying Situ Weixing even more.

"Yu Sheng, I'll trouble you in the future." Situ Yaorao looked at Yu Sheng and said.

Yu Sheng heard this and shook her head: "It's no trouble at all. I like it very much. If this place remains unchanged, I will always help you."

"Ah, nothing will change here. I promise." Situ Yaorao chuckled.

"But what exactly are you going to do here?" Yu Sheng looked at Situ Yaorao and asked with some confusion. Situ Yaorao smiled mysteriously and said, "It's a secret. But you will know soon. Rather than that, you should come with me for a trip."

"Going out?"

"Yes, I want to order some cups and hire a chef to teach him a few things. And by the way, I also need to select some wine waiters."

Situ Yaorao listed the things she was going to do. Yu Sheng felt a headache coming on from listening to them. So she said, "I'll just go with you. Please forgive me."

"Let's go then."

"Miss, I want to go too."

"You are not allowed to go. You and Weixing stay here. Weixing doesn't know anything, and if anything goes wrong, you can stop him." Situ Yaorao stopped Lian'er.

Lian Er felt wronged when she heard this. She glanced at Situ Weixing beside her and said, "It's all your fault!"

"I'm sorry." Situ Weixing looked aggrieved.

"You... I didn't ask you to say sorry. Let's, let's continue as before." Lian'er looked at Situ Weixing awkwardly. Lian'er felt a little distressed for Situ Weixing's behavior.

So the two of them started asking and answering each other again.

"I'm not very familiar with the things in Jingjing City. Where can I customize some cups and plates?" Situ Yaorao looked at the man and asked.

Yu Sheng heard this, thought about it, and then said, "Come with me over here."

As she spoke, Yu Sheng brought Situ Yaorao to a tea shop.

"Boss Yu?" Everyone in the tea shop was very enthusiastic when they saw Yu Sheng. Yu Sheng said to Situ Yaorao, "This is where I used to order tea sets."

"Hello, could you please customize 100 sets of wine glasses for me?"

"So many?"

"Yes, this is the blueprint." After saying that, Situ Yaorao handed the blueprint to them. After they looked at it, they felt that it was a bit cumbersome.

"This... the cup in the blueprint can be made, but what about the price?"

"There is no problem with the price. Thank you for your help. These cups are very important to me. By the way, here are the plates and the wine jugs, thank you for your help as well." Situ Yaorao said as she put them all over.

"Only fifty plates, and the same for the wine jugs. When you can pick them up, please go to Lan Yi Pavilion and let me know."

"Don't worry, you were introduced by Boss Yu, so we'll get it done as soon as possible," the boss assured. After finishing the job, Situ Yaorao was in a good mood, so the two of them went to the next place.

After customizing these things, Situ Yaorao followed the man to the slave market here.

Here, Situ Yaorao had truly broadened her horizons. The people here weren't treated like human beings at all. Prices were clearly marked, and anyone who paid could take anything away.

"How could a place like this exist without being closed down?" Situ Yaorao found it unbelievable.

"It is said that there is a big boss behind this place. No one dares to move. However, I don't know who it is." said the man.

"Even you don't know?"

"I'm just a small boss, how could I know all this? Compared to this, Miss Situ, it's better not to say anything here. Here, don't have any sympathy, just take out the silver and buy the slaves. This is the only way you can show kindness."

"Do you think I'm such a friendly person?" Situ Yaorao asked with a smile. Yu Sheng heard this, thought about it, and found that it was not true. So she shook her head and said, "I think too much."

Yu Sheng had seen everything Situ Yaorao had done over the past two days, so if he were to say that this woman was kind, he simply couldn't bring himself to say it. If she were kind, she wouldn't have remained indifferent when Qing He was in trouble. If she were kind, she wouldn't have watched Qing He die and then calmly analyzed the situation.

On the contrary, her maidservant burst into tears. This woman was calmer than expected, so there was no need to worry about her getting hurt because of this. Perhaps in this respect, this woman was a natural-born businessman.

She won't be tempted by external things, nor will she be shaken by fear. She maintains her true heart and sees everything clearly. If such a woman is not suitable for business, what else can she be suitable for?

Madam Situ has done a pretty good job of educating Miss Situ. If those people saw her like this, they would surely rush to propose marriage, right? After all, having a wife like this would save the family a lot of trouble.

Thinking about it, the man said, "Fortunately, not many people know about your condition. Otherwise, it would be really troublesome."

"Huh? What do you mean?" Situ Yaorao asked in confusion.

The man smiled and shook his head when he heard this: "No, nothing. I just feel a little emotional. Okay, Miss Situ, choose your slave."

"Okay. You can help me choose too."

"I wonder if there are any requests?"

"No other requirements, just handsome is enough. It doesn't matter if they don't know anything, as long as they have a good look!" Situ Yaorao said decisively. As soon as these words came out, Yu Sheng looked at Situ Yaorao with a strange look.

"Don't look at me like that. It's common sense that a good-looking man is pleasing to the eye."

"Then why not choose a woman?" the man asked puzzledly.

"Of course, women also need to be selected, but please select the men first and let me take a look at the results before making any other decisions." Situ Yaorao said.

The man's mouth twitched when he heard this. "You always have your reasons. I can't argue with you. But since you said so, I'll help you choose." Yu Sheng sighed softly. Then, she began to look for the handsome guy that Situ Yaorao said was pleasing to the eye.

This was the first time he had done such a thing. So, when he looked carefully at each man, the looks from the others on the other side of him became strange.

On the other hand, Situ Yaorao looked calm. Just when he thought that Situ Yaorao could not find the person she wanted, Situ Yaorao stopped and her eyes fell on a cage in a shop.

He was a tall, handsome man with cold eyes. His long hair hung down, looking a little messy, but he still exuded a murderous aura.

"This person... doesn't look like a good person no matter how you look at him. Don't just look at his face." The man looked at Situ Yaorao, hesitated, and persuaded.

Situ Yaorao smiled and said, "I told you, having face is enough." After that, she stepped into the store.
