After dressing up as a stepmother, I transformed the whole family into working in the fields

Chapter 644 Baili Nihuang

"What are you looking at?"

 The eldest princess’ displeased questioning voice came from the carriage.

Mu Ling quickly looked away from the family of eight and respectfully replied: "Your Highness, I just saw a familiar person."

 Look familiar? Is that acquaintance?

The eldest princess is not a very curious person, but she is really a little curious about this person today. After all, she has never seen anyone who can shock Mu Ling so much.

 “Who is he?” A faint voice of inquiry came from the carriage.

Mu Ling glanced back hesitantly. There were people coming and going on the street, but the familiar figure had long since disappeared.

She was a little unsure again. After all, how could people from a rural place like Liujia Village, Kaiyang County, Zijing Prefecture, suddenly appear in the capital.

Besides, she still remembered that the woman missed her country place very much. How could she leave easily?

But the eldest princess was waiting, and Mu Ling did not dare to pause for too long. He thought for a while and replied: "A friend of Zijin Mansion, I wonder if your highness still remembers the strong country woman that your subordinates mentioned to you last year?"

The eldest princess doesn’t know how many names pass through her ears every day, but her memory has been trained since she was a child, and she has the ability to remember the names of the names she hears. As soon as she thinks about them, there will be an impression in her mind.

"Is it Qin Yao who sent someone to deliver papyrus to our house?" Although it was a question, his tone was firm.

 And that piece of papyrus is worth several thousand taels of "thaw paper". The Princess Mansion doesn't have many opportunities to receive such precious piece of papyrus in a year. It's really impressive.

Mu Ling was a little surprised. She didn't expect His Highness to have such a good memory, so she hurriedly responded: "It is this person. Her husband is a scholar. Maybe he is preparing to go to Beijing in advance for next spring."

Since they completed a transaction with Qin Yao that year, the two met again because of Wang Mian. They have been busy with official duties in the past two years, and Mu Ling's information about Qin Yao is still at the time when the two met for the first time.

 The relationship between Liu Ji and Gong Liangliao is not known yet.

Mu Ling only felt that it was a bit strange. She had seen the husband of the strong woman, and he had nothing but a good face.

I didn’t expect that after not seeing each other for two years, I would be able to go to Beijing to prepare for the Spring Festival. Could it be that she had misjudged her before? Or is it that this kid got some advice from an expert?

Mu Ling was thinking to herself. She would have to send someone to check on the situation of the strong woman and her family.

 Although she was rejected by Qin Yao several times, Mu Ling still had no hope of giving up on her.

What if she just stayed in that mountain village and then went to the capital and was exposed under her nose?

  It’s simply God’s will!

They can fight and make money, and they still have brains. If this kind of outstanding person is let go, Mu Ling feels that she is really sorry for the eldest princess!

The person in the carriage seemed to know what she was thinking, and said with a hint of a smile, "Next time someone comes to deliver toilet paper, tell them to ask their boss's wife to deliver it herself."

 The implication is that you want to see the person for yourself.

When Mu Ling heard this, not only was he not happy, but he was panicked for a moment, and carefully reminded: "Your Highness, this person is unruly, I'm afraid he will make Your Highness angry, otherwise"

"What, are you afraid that I will kill her in anger?" The eldest princess sneered, "Am I the stingy person in your eyes?"

Mu Ling hurriedly said that he did not dare to guess the princess's thoughts. He really wished he could go back to half an hour ago and cover his mouth.

What Qin Yao is mentioned well, this time, His Highness wants to see people, she has to think about how to deceive Qin Yao's woman into the princess's house.

 Yes, it’s a lie, not a invitation. Mu Ling is very self-aware of her own strength and does not want to antagonize Qin Yao, so threats and other methods are not considered.

Calculating it this way, isn’t it just cheating?

However, Mu Ling still had some luck in her heart. People can change. What if Qin Yao, a woman, changes her mind?

Having said that, having relied on His Highness’s influence to open a shop in Kyoto, you should know what to do to continue opening the shop.

 “How is the situation over there at Zijin Mansion?”

 The topic suddenly changed, and the eldest princess asked about Fulong Trading Company.

Mu Ling secretly breathed a sigh of relief and told all the news he had just received yesterday. The master and servant chatted in the alley for a long time. It was almost noon, and His Highness had no intention of returning home. The female coachman had to carefully remind him. .

"Your Highness, we stayed in the palace all night and have not returned home. If we don't return home, I'm afraid it will be difficult for the Prince Consort to explain to them. The Lord of Zhanghua County is also waiting for you to practice riding and archery at the racecourse."

The eldest princess Baili Nihuang, who was having a lively chat with Mu Ling about the business, heard the female coach driver's words, her mood dropped completely, her shoulders slumped, she took off the power fence to reveal a plump face, closed her eyes and leaned against the carriage, "Oh~" he rubbed his eyebrows.

 The men at home who made people both angry and loved really gave her a headache.

 Taking a deep breath, as if she was mentally prepared to face the situation, the eldest princess ordered: "Go back home!"

 The carriage slowly drove out of the alley, and soon got mixed up among a bunch of ordinary carriages and sedans, making it no longer distinguishable.

On the main road of Nanshi, follow the main road all the way in. At the end, you will see a parking lot marked with white lime powder.

At noon, the nobles of Kyoto, who were singing and dancing every night, had just gotten out of bed. Most of the people who could appear on the street at this moment were the purchasing women and stewards of various prefectures.

 However, the parking lot at the end of Nanshi Street was filled with beautifully decorated horse-drawn carriages by ladies from various prefectures. There was already a long queue in front of the two-story shop next to the parking lot.

Girls from each family either wore hairpins to protect themselves from the sun, or had umbrellas held by maids and servants, and lined up in the queuing area in an orderly manner.

 There is no other reason, just because today is the day when the ladies’ box shop launches new summer products.

That is the lady's box carefully selected by the eldest princess. It is sold by Fulong Trading Company. There are only two to three hundred pieces available every month.

But it’s different when new products are launched. Today, the shopkeeper at the counter said that there are two hundred of them in stock, first come first served, no reservation required, and the first 100 customers who enter the store will get one regardless of whether they buy or not. Afternoon tea flower post, if you have nothing to do on weekdays, you can go to the second floor of the store to meet up with the sisters to have tea and snacks together.

If you are lucky, you may even meet the eldest princess in person!

“Really or not? Can the eldest princess still come to our shop?”

 In the teahouse opposite the counter shop, Liu Ji, who had just ordered a drink and returned to his seat, looked at Qin Yao and asked in surprise.

He knew that his wife had done a big business and opened a shop in the capital, but he didn't expect that this counter shop would be so big, occupying the entire two-story building opposite. The decoration was very grand, and it looked like a huge investment had been made. of.

 Liu Jicai was secretly happy, and there was another big surprise: the eldest princess came in person. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't hold back his smile.
