The Crown Princess is busy fishing

The next day, Lin Yuge and the others began to get busy.

Lu Ziheng contacted merchants he knew.

Lin Yuge and Lin Qingzhou also went to meet with the buyers introduced by Mo Dong one by one, and then took the heads of each company to the warehouse to inspect the goods.

As each transaction was completed, Lin Yuge felt a weight lift from her shoulders, and a relaxed smile appeared on her face.

The goods sold much better than she had expected.

This was not only due to Lu Ziheng's connections in the capital, but also to the crucial role played by the customers brought by Mo Dong.

Meanwhile, she also reached a cooperation agreement with a teahouse.

After leaving the teahouse, the group walked down the street.

"Mo Dong, which one is next?"

"Miss Lin, let's go to Jinxiufang next."

"Okay, let's hurry up and try to visit at least two more places today."

Chinatsu suddenly leaned in from behind and said:

"Miss, is someone following us?"

Lin Yuge felt a chill run down her spine. Had she made too much noise today and been targeted?

"Where is it?" she asked calmly.

“It’s at that stall across from the teahouse we just visited,” Qianxia replied calmly.

Lin Yuge looked over there and saw a well-dressed lady with a servant. The lady's face was covered by a light veil, and she kept glancing over at them.

"Your Highness, that girl is looking over here!"

Hearing the reminder from the old woman behind her, Hua Ruoyan quickly turned around, pretending to look at the items on the stall.

Lin Yuge was taken aback; this wasn't what she had expected. What kind of family would send such an obvious person to follow them?

Mo Dong, standing to the side, twitched his lips slightly, unable to bear watching.

With the prince away, the princess has started to let loose again.

Lin Yuge was filled with doubts, but she didn't want to alert the enemy, so she pretended to be nonchalant and continued on her way.

She whispered to Qianxia, ​​"Don't make a sound yet. Let's see what they're up to."

Hua Ruoyan appeared to be selecting items at the stall, but her gaze kept drifting towards Lin Yuge.

"Granny Gui, how was it? Did you see it clearly? What does that girl look like?" Hua Ruoyan asked softly.

Granny Gui bowed slightly and replied in a low voice:

"Your Highness, this old servant finds that Miss Lin to be beautiful, with delicate features, a graceful figure, and an extraordinary air about her."

Although he was in business, he had none of the mercenary air about him; his eyes and brows revealed a tenacious spirit.

Hua Ruoyan nodded slightly, pondering to herself.

No wonder Yun Qing is so attentive to her; she really does have some unique qualities.

"Let's go, let's get closer and listen to her tone and attitude when she talks to people."

As Hua Ruoyan spoke, she led her nanny and her hidden attendants, walking slowly toward Lin Yuge.

Lin Yuge led Qianxia into a small alley, deliberately slowing his pace.

Sure enough, the lady behind him also hurriedly followed in with her servants.

Mo Dong sighed helplessly, thinking to himself that the princess was acting in this way.

If the prince finds out, he'll probably have another headache.

But at this moment, he could only follow behind Lin Yuge in case anything unexpected happened.

Lin Yuge stopped in the alley, turned to face the two followers, and said loudly:

"I wonder what brings you here, Madam?"

If you're interested in my goods, you can come and discuss them openly and honestly. Why be so secretive?

Hua Ruoyan was taken aback when she realized she had been exposed.

She then gently lifted the veil, revealing a face that was both elegant and playful:

“Miss Lin is indeed exceptionally intelligent. I heard from an acquaintance that Miss Lin brought back many precious items from Lingnan, and out of curiosity, I came to take a look.”

Lin Yuge looked puzzled; this person didn't seem to be here for the goods.

Seeing this, Mo Dong wanted to speak up and remind Lin Yuge.

But Hua Ruoyan's glare intimidated him, and he could only swallow back the words he was about to say.

Although Lin Yuge had doubts, she didn't want to offend Hua Ruoyan directly, so she bowed slightly and said:

"Since you seem to be in such a good mood, then please come with me to the warehouse."

The warehouse is rather simple; I hope you will not find it offensive, Madam.

Hua Ruoyan smiled and nodded, walking side by side with Lin Yuge, and chatting with her from time to time.

Lin Yuge handled the conversation with ease, ranging from the local customs and traditions of Lingnan to interesting anecdotes in the business world.

I always felt that this lady's true intentions were not what they seemed.

For the time being, it was impossible to guess what her real purpose was.

Upon arriving at the warehouse, Lin Qingzhou was organizing the crew to sort the goods according to the orders and deliver them to various customers.

After exchanging greetings, Lin Yuge led the group inside.

Hua Ruoyan's gaze swept across the bustling warehouse, finally settling on Lin Yuge, and she said:

"Miss Lin runs her business very well; she must be very capable."

Lin Yuge responded modestly, "Madam, you flatter me. It's just a means of making a living."

While secretly observing Lin Yuge, Hua Ruoyan selected goods.

She appeared focused on the texture and style of the various goods, but in reality, she was constantly watching Lin Yuge's expression.

Fingers gently glide over bolts of silk, occasionally picking up a delicate piece of porcelain to examine it closely against the light.

Every movement exuded elegance, yet she seemed somewhat absent-minded.

They quickly picked out a bunch of things.

Behind her, Granny Gui reminded her, "Madam, that's enough. There's no room for any more."

She didn't pay any attention.

It wasn't until Lin Yuge asked, "Madam, where should these goods be delivered to you?"

Hua Ruoyan then came to her senses, her gaze lingering briefly on the pile of goods.

A barely perceptible hint of annoyance flashed across his face.

He secretly blamed himself for being too engrossed in his curiosity about the girl, which led him to select too many items.

She coughed lightly to cover it up, and a slightly apologetic smile appeared on her face, but her eyes remained calm and composed.

"Look at my memory, I lose all sense of proportion as soon as I see these nice things."

"No need to trouble Miss Lin to arrange delivery; I will send someone to pick it up myself."

After saying that, she straightened her clothes slightly, as if trying to completely erase that slight lapse in composure.

She continued to maintain an air of elegance and refinement as she spoke with Lin Yuge.

Although Lin Yuge felt something was strange, she didn't say anything and just nodded in agreement.

At this moment, Granny Gui gently reminded her from the side, "Madam, it's getting late, it's time to go back to the manor."

Hua Ruoyan looked up at the sky and slowly said:

"I have learned a lot from Miss Lin today. I must talk to her again another day."

Lin Yuge bowed slightly and said, "Please take care, Madam. You are welcome to visit again anytime."

After Hua Ruoyan and her group left, Qianxia stepped forward, her brows furrowed, her eyes full of doubt:

“Miss, this Mrs. Hua’s behavior today is quite strange; she doesn’t seem to be here simply to select goods.”

Lin Yuge nodded slightly and sighed softly:

"I also felt something was amiss; she seemed to be chatting casually."

Yet it seemed as if she was secretly testing the waters, but I still couldn't figure out what she was up to.

Mo Nan listened from the side, speechless.

If the princess wants to see her future daughter-in-law, she can simply summon her.

They deliberately pulled this stunt, leaving everyone confused and full of doubts.

It seems I'll have to remind the Crown Prince when I get back.

It's a good thing that Qianxia hasn't met the princess before, otherwise she would have been exposed as soon as they met.
