The abandoned concubine who transmigrated woke up shouting "Long live the widow!"

Peng Qingqing took out a handkerchief and wiped away the tears that had unknowingly flowed down her face. "Boss, to be honest, I'm not afraid of that man. It's just a life, right? But I can't bear to leave my two children and my sister. I always think about repaying my sister in the future. She has sacrificed so much for me!"

“Master, my two children and I have had a very happy time at the shop these past twenty-odd days. I have also managed the shop very well. The shop has even earned more money this month than last month. I dare not take credit, but at least we haven’t regressed.”

“My sister and I depend on each other for survival. We have no other relatives, so I have to raise the child by myself!” Peng Qingqing said, sobbing.

Jingxue always felt that things were peaceful here. Now she has a total of six shops and two courtyards. Only the cloth shop doesn't have anyone with martial arts skills. Even the beauty shop has Zhelan and Qingdai!

Who should we assign?

"Don't be sad! Here's what we'll do: I'll arrange for someone who knows kung fu to come over as soon as possible to help you watch over the shop. As for the two children, I'm going to build a girls' academy at Baichuan Academy next spring. You can send both of them there to study. They can live at the academy. It might take a few more months, what do you think?"

Peng gently raised her head. "Master, thank you! Are you really going to set up a girls' school? That's wonderful! With my two children at the academy, I'll have no more worries!"

Jingxue smiled bitterly, "Actually, I could send the two children to my residence. There are several children there, including my younger brother. However, I feel that neither you nor your children want to leave each other. The changes that have happened in your family have affected the two children psychologically. You should..."

As soon as she finished speaking, Peng Qingqing cried even louder.

Jingxue: My mouth is so foul!

After a while, Jingxue said, "Alright, stop crying! Don't bear things alone in the future. If they come again, report it to the authorities or find someone to help you. Don't cause trouble, but don't be afraid of trouble either, and don't be afraid of being laughed at by the world. Everyone has soot at the bottom of their pot. Who will laugh at whom? Right?"

"Master, thank you! You are my benefactor!" Peng Qingqing knelt down again!

Jingxue rolled her eyes. Hopeless!

"If you want to thank me, then do a good job! Bring me the ledger so I can take a look. Also, find all these things for me!" Jingxue said, taking out a list of materials needed for making down jackets.

Peng Qingqing slowly stood up and took the form Jingxue handed her. "Boss, what are you doing here?"

Jingxue's eyes instantly turned cold, and she said in a serious tone, "Remember, when I tell you to do something, don't ask so many questions, just do it!"

Upon hearing this, Peng Qingqing's face flushed red; she felt somewhat embarrassed and ashamed. She knew she shouldn't ask so many questions, but her curiosity was hard to suppress. She quickly composed herself and respectfully replied, "Yes, I've remembered!"

After Peng Qingqing finished speaking, she lowered her head and quickly opened the drawer next to her. "Boss, this is the account book. Please take a look!"

Jingxue took the ledger, nodded slightly, and said, "Okay! I'll take a look first, you go ahead and get busy!"

"Yes, Master!" Peng Qingqing replied respectfully again, then turned and left the room.

Peng Qingqing's account book was kept in a proper and orderly manner. Jingxue took a closer look at her purchase prices and found that one item was even cheaper than what Manager Wang had paid, and it was from the same shop. This showed that Peng Qingqing was quite capable.

Unfortunately, she never met a good man.

Tucked inside the ledger was a profit of 300 taels of silver. Jingxue noticed that cotton sales had increased this month, while doll sales had declined somewhat. This was normal; it seemed the doll designs needed updating. Lately, she had focused her energy on other things and neglected this area.

Jingxue put away the silver notes and went to the front. There were already customers choosing materials in the shop. When Peng Qingqing saw Jingxue come out, she hurriedly came to greet her.

"I've put the account book in the drawer for you, and I've put away the banknotes. Prepare some red, brightly colored fabric scraps for me. There's still some cotton in the manor. It's almost New Year's, and I'll go back and work on some new dolls!" Jingxue said.

Upon hearing this, Peng Qingqing's face immediately lit up with a smile. "That's wonderful! Boss, please wait a moment!"

Before long, the fabric was found. Peng Qingqing wrapped it in a large piece of cotton cloth. "Master, I will find all the items on your list for you as soon as possible and then give them to Miss Lixia!"

Jingxue took the package, nodded, and left the cloth shop.

He glanced at a few shops without checking the accounts, and then stored the month's silver in his spatial storage in the warehouse.

Jingxue went to Li's Fruit and Vegetable Store in the North City again. Today is the beginning of summer.

The shop smelled strongly of tofu, and there were quite a few people buying vegetables. Cucumbers and eggplants were on the market a couple of days ago, but tomatoes and green beans would have to wait a few more days.

The northern part of the city is full of aristocratic families' residences, so the purchase volume is larger. In fact, relying solely on the vegetables in the greenhouses is not enough to sell, since we only have six greenhouses for growing vegetables, and the vegetables mature in batches.

Most of the vegetables from Qin Jing's ten greenhouses were sent to the palace, and the rest were reserved for Mingyue Tower.

Therefore, every morning, Ying Shiwu would pull out two carts of vegetables and one cart of fruit from the back gate of the Prince's Mansion, all of which Jingxue took out from her spatial storage.

Jingxue lifted her skirt and went upstairs to the second floor. Lixia was helping to collect money. When she saw Jingxue, she quickly called over a shop assistant to take over for her. The two of them went to the window to talk.

"Miss, are you cold? Why didn't you bring a hand warmer? You're so careless!"

"It's alright, I'm not cold. Lixia, I'll take a quick look at a few shops. It's already noon. Why don't you invite a few of the shopkeepers to Mingyue Tower for dinner tonight, and also listen to their thoughts on the New Year? Let me know in a moment, I'll be there. They're all too reserved!"

Li Xia chuckled and nodded, saying, "Miss, actually, I'm nervous too!"

"Hehe! That's right. So I won't go anymore each month. You keep all the account books safe, write down any problems, and then we can discuss what to do."

"Yes, miss!"

Jingxue didn't ask about Li's Fruit and Vegetable Store, because the sales figures spoke for themselves. As for minor issues, the manager could handle them; otherwise, what use would they be?

"By the way, Lixia, I didn't go to the beauty salon. I wonder what it's like there?"

"I went there a few days ago, and the shop was doing very well! Sometimes when it gets busy, Manager Peng even does manicures for people."

"Really? Manager Peng has learned it too?"

"You'll learn it over time!"

"Also, send a shadow guard to the cloth shop. This morning, Peng Qingqing's ex-husband came to cause trouble, saying that Peng Qingqing bought the shop with his family's money."

"What? Is this guy desperate for money? Is he robbing us outright?" Li Xia said angrily upon hearing this.

Jingxue sneered, "Isn't that right? What kind of world is this! Lixia, what do you think of Peng Qingqing? I've been too busy lately."

"I've been to the cloth shop a few times. She's a very nice person, efficient and meticulous, just like Manager Peng. After all, they're sisters!"

"Alright! Do a good job of what I've asked you to do! I've taken some of the silver from the warehouse, and I've already taken the fifteenth from the fruit and vegetable shop. Once you've finished these things, go back to your residence, and we'll discuss the details later."

"Yes! Don't worry, Miss! I'll escort you downstairs!"

"No need! You go ahead and do your work!" Jingxue said before going downstairs back to the Prince's Mansion.
