The little boy asked with a crisp voice, it was Liu Yongxue.
"My mother bought this before, using Aunt Chun's private money. I wanted to live here with you when you were a child."
Liu Xiangu rolled up her sleeves and started cleaning.
Liu Yongxue held a small basin of water and a rag in a sensible manner, helping Liu Xiangu wipe the low places.
"Mom, can we go back to Daliushu Village in the future?"
Liu Xiangu stopped what she was doing, paused and said: "Daughter, if you don't leave, the princess will come and snatch you away. From now on, you will be just like Yuxue, with a nanny following you and a maid serving you. Do you want to In no mood?"
Liu Yongxue said: "I want to be with my mother."
"I have a grandma following me and a few sisters to serve me. This is how I am in the Duke's mansion, but I still miss my mother."
Liu Xiangu hesitated for a moment and said, "That's the life of a wealthy person. If you follow your mother, sometimes you won't be able to eat!"
Liu Yongxue waved her hand: "It's not that I've never been hungry."
"From now on, my mother will open her clairvoyance and make money. She has to save my dowry for me. I will practice martial arts well and protect my mother in the future."
Liu Xiangu's eyes were red.
"It looks good to a wealthy family, but it's actually not good. In the future, it won't be your turn to make the final decision about your marriage."
"Many high-ranking families, for the benefit of the family, will marry their daughters to families that can help the family. It doesn't matter whether the daughter wants to marry or not. If it affects the family's reputation, she will be sent to the village or the family temple. No People love their children. Mom only cares about whether my daughter is doing well, and everything else is bullshit."
Liu Yongxue nodded: "Well, it's all bullshit. I just stay with my mother and live a good life."
After speaking, he lowered his eyes and said, "Then I won't be able to see Yuxue from now on."
Liu Xiangu hugged her daughter distressedly.
The two of them tidied up the courtyard briefly, then threw themselves on the bed to catch up on their sleep.
***
Yue Rushuang slept in the East Palace all night and didn't know about Liu Yongxue.
Yue Rushuang was leaving the palace early, and at the palace gate she met Xing'er and An Yi who had rushed back early in the morning.
Xing'er naturally followed Yue Rushuang, and An Yi was jealous, so Yue Rushuang asked someone to go to Changchun Palace to say that she had taken An Yi out.
When the little father-in-law who went to deliver the message came back, there was a person following him, it was Princess Fuyi.
Fu Yi stayed in Concubine Liu's palace last night. Although the Queen Mother said that she would be with her, she would not really let her accompany her. The Queen Mother did not love her that much. A princess who was a concubine did not receive much attention in the palace.
Princess Fuyi saluted Yue Rushuang and timidly said: "When the emperor's sister-in-law sent someone to send a message, I was greeting the queen in Changchun Palace. The queen said that if I have nothing to do, I can follow the emperor's sister-in-law out for a walk. I don't know. Is it convenient for the emperor’s sister-in-law?”
After saying that, his face turned red.
Because she was not favored in the palace, Fuyi never left the palace before her wedding. After her wedding, in addition to attending banquets in various palaces, she went out several times as the crown prince's wife, and was transported by carriage from one palace to another. In fact, it’s like never going out.
The maid next to her often told her something when she went out to buy snacks or something. It sounded interesting to her, and she wanted to see it with her own eyes, so she said it shamelessly.
After saying that, I felt that I had overstepped my bounds.
Yue Rushuang didn't mind. In Yue Rushuang's eyes, it was just an appointment to go shopping together.
Yue Rushuang said: "Where do you want to go, princess? I'm afraid we don't have time to visit the shop today. We are going to work. Do you want to go?"
Fu Yi said hurriedly: "Sister-in-law, just look at the people outside. I don't want to stay in the palace."
An Yi looked at Fu Yi with sympathetic eyes.
Yue Rushuang nodded and said, "Okay, if you don't want to go shopping anymore, I'll have someone take you back."
Fu Yi was so happy that the maid who was following her said softly: "Master, this is great. You should take a good look at it."
Everyone took a carriage all the way to Xiqing Street.
With the experience of the bathing center, this restaurant will be much faster. Shopkeeper Hua has already recruited all the people, as well as professional cooks.
The restaurant was short of a shopkeeper, and Yue Rushuang fell in love with Cheng Shisan, who knew how to read and write, had a measured advance and retreat, and could also write beautiful calligraphy.
Yue Rushuang never expected that her action would cause Cheng Shisan to be killed.
The restaurant is about to open, but the other shops are still empty.
"Myolie, I'll give you a shop. You don't need to know how to run it. You just need to know how to employ people. Just find a capable shopkeeper and a few hard-working clerks."
Xing'er shook her head: "This slave is eating and drinking with the girl, why do you need a shop?"
Yue Rushuang smiled and said: "No one can compare to what I have. People should know how to leave a way out. One day, if the girl treats you badly, just turn around and leave. You have a shop and can make money, so you are not afraid of anyone." .”
Xing'er frowned: "Will the girl be bad to me? How can the girl live without a slave?"
Yue Rushuang...
Well, I'm just counting on you to live.
An Yi pushed Xing'er and said, "It's so fun to open a shop. You open it, how about I join you?"
"No princess has her own property yet. The Queen Mother said she would give me a shop when I get married. I don't want to wait any longer."
Yue Rushuang smiled and said:
"My dear princess, you don't have to worry about food and drink, why are you always thinking about doing business?"
"Didn't the emperor's sister-in-law say that there should be a way out? I will listen to the emperor's sister-in-law." An Yi said.
Yue Rushuang...
Your brother can't even say a word of love, but your sister is as sweet as honey.
An Yi said: "Sister-in-law, I want to make money. Even in my grandfather's family, there are a few concubines who do not take the imperial examination. They are doing business. If someone in the family is an official, someone must do business. Otherwise, how can they afford the ordinary expenses of officialdom?" ?”
"After I make money, I will be supported by my brother Prince."
Yue Rushuang laughed out loud.
"Then it's okay if I don't agree?"
An Yi nodded seriously.
Yue Rushuang said: "Then what do you want to do?"
An Yi was dumbfounded.
She doesn't know either.
"Sister-in-law, I don't understand. When I look at the shops, they are nothing more than restaurants, teahouses, silk and satin shops, jewelry shops, or dessert shops."
An Yi lowered her head: "I don't understand anything."
Yue Rushuang thought for a while and said, "Then think about it carefully."
"Let me know when you think about it."
An Yi smiled and said, "Sister-in-law Huang, Miss Xing'er and I are inexperienced, please give us an idea."
Yue Rushuang smiled and said: "I will help you think about it and recruit good people for you. You just wait to receive the money, okay?"
An Yi blushed.
"Sister-in-law, I will still do it myself. I will learn from her. If I open a shop in the future, I will never trouble her. If she opens a shop again, I can still help her."
Yue Rushuang...
This little mouth is sweet.
Xing'er didn't care at all about opening a shop.
An Yi pushed her.
"Do you know how good the emperor's sister-in-law is to you? I haven't heard of any little maids whose masters will give them to the shop. They are all old, so they will say marriage, and give them a few taels of silver. If they are more respectable, they will Give me a few acres of paddy fields, I know."
Xing'er said: "I don't want to get married."
"What's the good thing about getting married? You still have to serve your husband, and you have to be disciplined by the rules set by your mother-in-law. Isn't it good for me to serve the girl?"
"We girls don't set rules for me. Why should she set rules for me? I can't control my hands. If she sets rules for me, I will break her arm and won't pick it up."
