The story of a bullied daughter's rise to power

Situ Yaorao's words excited Lian'er. Yes! This is my young lady.

"Miss, you are right! I support you." Lian'er said excitedly. Situ Yaorao looked at the woman with a mixture of laughter and tears after hearing this: "You girl."

Situ Yaorao's lawsuit against Qian Shui'er spread throughout the capital the next morning. Even the imperial palace knew the news. For no other reason than that Lord Zhang, the capital's chief official, couldn't make the final decision, so he reported it to the emperor. Naturally, all the officials knew about it. And the women in the harem also had their own channels.

This matter spread throughout the entire imperial city of Lanlin at almost the speed of wind.

Everyone waited and watched, curious about how the matter between Situ Yaorao and Qian Shui'er would be resolved. One was the Crown Princess, the other the future Crown Princess, a natural confrontation. Now, the Crown Princess was in the right, while the future Crown Princess? She had the power. The Wu Kingdom princess, favored by the Emperor, could be unstoppable, barring any serious consequences. For a moment, everyone waited anxiously for the trial to begin in three days.

Situ Yaorao didn't care about this. Compared to these, what Situ Yaorao cared about more now was the bet with Luo Qiushen.

"Lian'er, I remember you told me before that there are many villages near the capital."

"Yes, miss, do you want to visit those villages? I have always felt that those villages are suitable for development. What our Lan Qinglou needs are all kinds of fruits, and those villages all grow fruits. Miss, do you want to go and see? I will find you maps of those places, as well as information about their customs and practices." Lian'er said, and was about to go back to her room.

When she was helping Situ Yaorao manage Lan Qinglou, Lian'er had put in a lot of effort. She had wanted to tell her about this for a long time, but she only said it briefly before Xiu'er instigated her to do something about it. Now that Situ Yaorao mentioned it, Lian'er naturally rushed to find her.

"Okay, go find it." Seeing Lian'er so enthusiastic and positive, Situ Yaorao felt a little embarrassed. If it weren't for Luo Qiushen's incident, she wouldn't have thought of it so quickly. It was obviously her own restaurant, but she cared less than anyone else. What she did as a boss was too unqualified. Situ Yaorao secretly despised herself in her heart, and then she saw that Lian'er had already brought the things.

"Miss, among these villages, Taoyuan Village is the most suitable. Taoyuan Village has been cultivating peach trees for generations, hence the name. The peach production here is very good, but because it's too isolated and poorly managed, it's often exploited. In recent years, the villagers of Taoyuan Village have begun to keep the peaches for themselves, even refusing to sell them to outsiders if they rot. However, the peaches here are very good. Miss, would you like to go and take a look?"

Lian'er looked at her expectantly.

"Why did you choose this place?" Situ Yaorao looked at Lian'er. If that were all, Situ Yaorao felt that Lian'er wouldn't have recommended it so enthusiastically. Lian'er blushed and said awkwardly, "Because I've been there before. The elderly there helped me a lot, and I thought, if I can, I'll help them. But Miss, those peaches are really good," Lian'er assured.

Seeing her like this, Situ Yaorao laughed and said, "I understand. I'll go." She had been hesitant at first, but after hearing her words, she agreed. After all, for her, it didn't matter where she chose. She just wanted to choose a quieter place. Since this place had done a favor for Lian'er, then it would be fine to choose this place.

Seeing that Situ Yaorao agreed, Lian'er looked at Situ Yaorao excitedly: "Thank you, Miss, thank you, Miss."

"Okay, okay, you go out first." Situ Yaorao carefully studied the matter about Taoyuan Village, finalized the plan in her mind, went out first, and went to Lan Qinglou.

The people at Lan Qinglou had recently seen Situ Yaorao arrive early. Initial surprise had turned to numbness. They had even come to believe that their boss was intent on developing Lan Qinglou. This reassured everyone there.

Of course, if they knew that their boss, Situ Yaorao, was only acting for her own ends, they would be in a state of confusion. Unfortunately, they wouldn't know. And Situ Yaorao wouldn't stay here forever, as they thought.

Arriving upstairs at Lan Qing Lou, Situ Yaorao quietly sat on a chair, waiting for someone to arrive. Beside her, Xiao Hei rubbed against her affectionately. Situ Yaorao really liked this cat. It was very well behaved and knew when she was happy and when she was unhappy.

"Boss, the young master is here." The shopkeeper habitually announced, and then Luo Qiushen entered the house. After seeing Situ Yaorao, he nodded. Situ Yaorao also smiled at the man: "Finally, I waited for you."

"Huh?" The man was puzzled.

Situ Yaorao said, "Shopkeeper, you stay here first."

"Yes." The shopkeeper came in hurriedly. Then Situ Yaorao heard Situ Yaorao say: "My Lan Qinglou is developing better and better now. But a big tree attracts the wind, and fruit wine is our signature product. It is inevitable that someone will have their eyes on the fruit. So, I plan to plant it myself. Of course, if I plant it now, I am afraid it will be out of fashion. So, I plan to directly find some relatively backward and closed villages. There are fruit trees planted in the villages near the capital. By cooperating with one by one, we will eventually have our own orchard, and we don't have to worry about the fruit problem. Shopkeeper, what do you think of this idea?" After Situ Yaorao finished speaking, he looked at the shopkeeper. When the shopkeeper heard what he said, his eyes were really filled with tears.

"Uh, why are you crying?" Situ Yaorao was stunned, wondering, what did she say wrong?

"Boss, you... you really touched me. I thought you were just a troublemaker and a pretender. I didn't expect that you are really capable. I almost believe that this Lan Qinglou was really founded by you." The shopkeeper said excitedly.

Upon hearing this, Situ Yaorao's face darkened: "This was originally founded by me. However, the idea of ​​the fruit tree was suggested to me by the girl next to me. I thought about it and thought it was feasible, so I told you about it. If you also think it is feasible, I plan to go to the nearby village to take a look today." Situ Yaorao said.

The shopkeeper felt like he was dreaming. Could his boss be so diligent? This was simply a dream! A dream!

"Boss, if you need anything, just tell me. I'll be ready right away." The shopkeeper's excitement made Situ Yaorao laugh and cry. She could only say unhappily, "Go out. There's nothing you need to prepare."

"Yes."

After the steward left, Situ Yaorao looked at the man awkwardly: "Sorry, I made you laugh."

"No, it's me who has broadened my horizons. I thought that the only way for a master and a servant to get along is respect. I didn't expect there would be this kind of thing." Luo Qiushen said.

"Are you saying that I have no manners?" Situ Yaorao asked back.
