After transmigrating, I became a stepmother.

“These screens are exquisitely designed and unique; it would be a shame to keep them only for home viewing!” Seeing that Lin Hao truly did not understand, the magistrate’s wife turned her gaze to the glass screens and the girls beside them who were completely captivated, her eyes distant and thoughtful.

Lin Hao felt like she understood what the other person meant, but she wasn't sure. After a moment's thought, she "honestly" confessed: "It's not a pity! It was originally conceived by accident to give Yu Ge'er a glass of liuli. The current effect is already more than worth it."

The magistrate's wife didn't believe that Lin Hao, with her intelligence, couldn't understand the meaning behind her words, but since the other party had said so, she didn't mind making her point even clearer.

“I think it’s better to give it greater value than to treat it as just a toy! I’m sure someone will be willing to buy something like this.” The magistrate’s wife secretly observed Lin Hao’s expression. Although she could have simply ordered someone to do it without telling him, there was no need to!

Now Lin Hao was certain that the other party was indeed planning to do this business!

She feigned surprise at the opportune moment: "Madam is right! How could I not have thought of that? But even if I had, it wouldn't have mattered. I'm busy enough as it is now, and I don't have the energy to get involved in things I don't understand!"

The implication is that he has no intention of doing this business.

The magistrate's wife gave Lin Hao a deep look, unsure if he was being sincere, and tentatively asked, "Aren't you going to reconsider? After all, this idea was yours!"

Lin Hao decisively shook his head: "Oh, I dare not take credit for this. It was just a sudden idea, and I didn't actually do anything! However, if Madam's business grows bigger, you must give me a preferential price in the future!"

The wealthy people who had been paying close attention to what they were saying were quite surprised to see Lin Hao pass up such a good opportunity.

People like Madam Zhao felt that Lin Hao had wasted an opportunity to befriend the magistrate's wife, and even a potential rise in high society, which was incredibly foolish. If they had been given that opportunity, they would have seized it and climbed even higher. Thinking of this, they couldn't help but glare resentfully at Lin Hao.

Madam Zhang and the others looked at her with even greater respect. There are not many people who can refuse money, let alone a ready-made business with such powerful backers.

Lin Hao naturally knew that the ladies who seemed to be chatting were actually secretly watching them. Leaders are always in the spotlight, and she was just a little fox who was getting ahead of the tiger!

It's enough to let people know that she's on good terms with the magistrate's wife; there's no need to actually tie the two of them together. She'd better stay away from the power struggles and intricacies of aristocratic families!

Seeing that she didn't seem to be faking it, the magistrate's wife smiled and accepted it. Since the other party was so sensible, she naturally wouldn't let her suffer a loss; she would make up for it elsewhere.

Therefore, she agreed without hesitation: "Of course, if there are any good ones in the future, I will definitely send them over for you to see!"

Lin Hao smiled and agreed, but in her heart she was thinking: As expected of someone raised by a prestigious family, look at her words and insights, how can ordinary people compare? She can see the big picture from small details. If a woman from the inner quarters is already so knowledgeable, those scheming men will not be much less so. If she really gets involved in this business, she might not even know how she was schemed against.

Lin Hao silently gave herself a thumbs up in her heart. Well done! Gold and silver are valuable, but life is more precious!
