"Oh, it's a mutually agreeable transaction. If you don't want to buy, that's fine. I didn't force you."
She still felt she was losing out even at fifty taels.
Previously, it sold for 20,000 in Xian'an.
"You...you're doing something wrong! Are you planning to lie to others again?"
Chen Ting stopped Lin Shuyun, saying, "Don't you feel any remorse for taking so much ill-gotten wealth?"
"I'm sorry, I have no conscience. Please stop talking, it hurts my ears!"
Seeing the righteous and indignant look on the female competitor's face, Lin Shuyun felt annoyed and turned to leave.
However, he was stopped by the old man dressed as a wealthy businessman. "Since you're selling fake medicine, you're not going to leave easily."
Lin Shuyun: ? ? ?
What happened? How did she suddenly become a seller of counterfeit medicine?
“Young lady, it’s not good for you to do this kind of thing at such a young age. If you have any difficulties, you can tell me.”
Prince Rui felt that the girl was probably forced by circumstances, and since he had run into her and she was someone his niece knew, he could lend a hand.
Chen Ting said to Prince Rui, "Old man, don't worry about it. She's not short of money! She's just too arrogant."
Lin Shuyun spent a lot of money on that journey, and now that she's seen wandering around the market every day, she probably lives nearby.
Moreover, Jiang Changtian is a member of the Jiang family, and the Jiang family members are officials. How could they be short of money? Why would she need to come out and swindle money?
"Who is so arrogant? What gives you the right to judge others? Do you think you know me? Stay away from me."
Lin Shuyun's face turned cold, and she looked at Prince Rui again, "Since you don't plan to buy my medicine, why are you stopping me?"
“It’s not good for someone so young, young lady. Those who do many evil deeds will surely perish.” Prince Rui frowned.
If she's not short of money, why would she lie to people? This woman has a wicked heart.
"Step aside!"
Just as the guards following Prince Rui were about to arrest him, Lin Shuyun dodged and struck his paralyzed tendon, escaping instantly.
The guards beside Prince Rui were stunned; this girl really had some skill.
When he was about to chase after her again, Rui stopped him.
"Oh well, let them go if they've already run away."
Chen Ting looked curiously at the person behind Prince Rui, "Old man, I didn't expect to run into you here again. Do you do business around here?"
This must be a servant, and it seems he knows martial arts?
Prince Rui looked at her and said, "Yes, I've been in Shengjing these past few days. How did you, a young lady, manage to come out alone?"
This girl is actually quite kind-hearted.
Chen Ting blinked her eyes. "Shengjing is a very safe place, much safer than where I lived before. And everyone I've met has been very nice. That's why I met you, sir."
"Haha, come on, I'll treat you to a meal. But don't call me 'old man' anymore, you can call me 'uncle' instead."
Prince Rui felt he was making himself sound old, as he was much younger than his elder brother.
"Miss Ting, what are you doing here?"
Suddenly, a man in a long robe called out to Chen Ting.
The man was quite surprised to see Chen Ting, and then glanced at Prince Rui beside him.
Chen Ting looked at him and smiled, "Wang Xiucai, it's you. What do you need me for?"
"It's not me looking for you, it's my mother. She wants you to do needlework together." Wang Xiucai looked down on Chen Ting to some extent.
He knew what his mother was thinking, but Chen Ting was quite good-looking, and since she could afford to live in a house in that kind of place, her family must be well-off. In addition, she had an older brother who studied at Luming Academy.
Her brother will definitely be able to guide her studies then. The key is that those who come out of Luming Academy will associate with the sons of powerful and wealthy families.
"Then, sir, I'll head back now. Let's have dinner together again next time we meet."
After Chen Ting finished speaking, she followed Wang Xiucai away.
The guard couldn't help but speak up, "Your Highness, the princess is a bit too naive."
Royal children are rarely so naive, believing everything they hear. Aren't they afraid of encountering bad people?
"There's nothing wrong with being naive, but I suppose that person is full of bad intentions and probably couldn't raise such an innocent child."
Prince Rui wondered to himself, "Which woman did my elder brother have a daughter with? It's really strange."
"Your Highness, should I go and investigate this Scholar Wang's family?"
Prince Rui shook his head. "No need. He probably doesn't want us to interfere too much in his private life. Let's just leave it at that."
He guessed he was the first person to discover that the Emperor Emeritus had a daughter, and thinking about it made Prince Rui want to laugh again.
……
……
As soon as Lin Shuyun got home, Old Man Xu came over.
"Girl, where did you go today? Why did it take you so long to come back?"
"Going out to make money!"
Lin Shuyun plopped down in a chair and crossed her legs, and Qin Niangzi immediately brought her a glass of water.
Gu Ru took a handkerchief and wiped Lin Shuyun's hands.
Seeing Lin Shuyun's arrogant attitude, Xiaoqing pursed her lips and silently brought over a plate of melon seeds.
"How much money did you make?" Qin Niangzi asked immediately.
Land in the capital is incredibly valuable; if they don't make money, they won't be able to pay their rent next year.
Food and drinks aren't outrageously expensive, but the housing prices are ridiculously high, making it impossible for ordinary people to survive.
She wanted to open a shop but didn't have the money to pay the rent.
"Don't even mention it! I ran into Sister Cijing again today. The business deal was almost done, but she ruined it for me!" Lin Shuyun said, taking a sip of water.
Upon hearing this, Madam Qin showed a look of disgust. "I'm speechless! How can someone be so hateful?"
He glanced at Xiaoqing as he said this.
Xiaoqing touched her nose. "Why are you looking at me? What does it have to do with me?"
Hearing this, Qin Niangzi breathed a sigh of relief. Luckily, the boy was oblivious, or she would have been disgusted to death. She was hoping to live a couple more years.
"By the way, Jiang Changtian should be back soon, right?" Qin Niangzi suddenly remembered this.
"Soon, he should be back tomorrow. What should we eat tomorrow?"
Old Xu smacked his lips as he recalled the fish he had eaten last time.
"Grandpa, all you ever do is eat," Xiaoqing said, then added, "But speaking of which, why has the Jiang family been so quiet lately?"
Qin Niangzi muttered, "Who knows? Could she be brewing something bad?"
The word "bad fart" perfectly describes the situation.
Old Xu said, "By the way, where is that kid Gu Nanfeng? He left the child with us and then disappeared. Didn't he arrive in the capital before us? Why is he gone?"
He was still waiting to see the Jiang family make a fool of themselves.
……
……
Gu Nanfeng was surrounded by people thirty miles away from Shengjing.
Gu Nanfeng was injured, and it seemed that there were only a few people left around him.
"My lord! You go first!"
The newcomer's voice was hoarse, "Lord Gu, hand over the goods, and we might spare your life. Otherwise, you'll stay here forever!"
