It turns out that Mrs. Jiang is so jealous of business not only because of the general environment that emphasizes agriculture and suppresses business, but also the most important reason is that her father had contact with a top-level official for some reasons when he was the deputy secretary of the General Affairs Department.

A wealthy merchant, there is a beautiful singer in the merchant's house. He and the merchant have a daughter. Her appearance is even better than that of her mother. Moreover, she has been carefully taught by her mother since she was a child. She is very good at singing, dancing and singing.

Because she had cultivated the kind of charming skills that were not on the stage, the merchant dedicated this concubine to her father. Since then, the mother and father had been at odds with each other, and they gradually became strangers.

When Mrs. Jiang, the youngest daughter, got married, her mother simply built a nunnery in the back house and worshiped Buddha all year round and became a lay practitioner at home.

The singer's concubine was able to seduce her father who wanted to be self-disciplined to such an extent, so naturally she had to give birth to children. She gave birth to two concubines and a concubine, which really caused a lot of trouble for Mrs. Jiang and her brother.

"Since then, I have always hated merchants. They are good at calculating, shameless and despicable, and they will do anything to achieve their goals."

He Xiaoman:......

has been understood.

It was only after Mrs. Jiang said these words that she realized something was wrong, and said apologetically: "I'm not talking about you, you... are different from those people, no, you are more arrogant than many official ladies in the waterside pavilion that day."

Faced with the benefactor who saved her and her son's lives regardless of previous suspicions, she is now speaking out.

"Madam, does she know about Tai Chi diagram?"

Mrs. Jiang was stunned. She felt that Wang Zhaodi's way of chatting was quite jumping, and she couldn't catch up.

"There is yin in yin and yang, fish in yang, and yang in yin. Madam rejected all merchants for some reasons, which is a bit arbitrary. I think madam also knows what happened in Eclipse a few days ago. Am I because of this?

Should we close the shop and thank customers? Or should we fire all employees and do everything ourselves? After all, they are too easy to be taken advantage of by others, aren't they? And hasn't the Censor ever suffered from officialdom? Then should we slaughter all the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty?"

Mrs. Jiang did not expect that Wang Zhaodi would act so boldly. This was just a statement in front of her. Anyone else could easily lead to the destruction of the family.

He Xiaoman dipped his fingers in tea and drew a simple Tai Chi diagram on the table: "Didn't the ancients say, 'The yin alone cannot give birth, and the yang alone cannot grow'. There is no one-size-fits-all truth for anything. You can't draw it just because of your finger."

Just chop off the whole hand, right? Merchants also have people with good conscience, such as my father. Madam, you can go and find out. Who in Qinghe Prefecture doesn’t know the kindness of Wang Dashan? There is also the son-in-law I recruited into the family.

I saved his life. He was desperate and wanted to marry into my Wang family. The version circulated in Qinghe Prefecture now is that I acted recklessly and forced Jing Heng to marry into my family by asking for repayment. Another example is my adopted son. I paid for it.

He spent all his time raising him up, but what’s the result?”

"A person will behave differently when facing different people, let alone a group?"

Mrs. Jiang believed that she was well-informed, and the people she dealt with were all noble ladies from aristocratic families who had been taught by the court since childhood. This was really the first time she had met Wang Zhaodi.

He Xiaoman saw that she looked ashamed and knew that it was alright. After all, she was an official's wife and she was just a humble business girl. Mrs. Jiang's ability to do this was considered a kindness of hers.

Therefore, He Xiaoman covered his mouth and smiled, jokingly saying: "Madam, you use your career to get a man, and you lose his wife. I use your words to get a man, and you lose your husband. We are both guilty of the saint."

It’s just a mistake I made.”

Mrs. Jiang laughed: "I didn't expect you to be a narrow-minded person, ha, ha ha ha!"

Although she had a smile on her face, she actually admired him in her heart. He was not an illiterate and vulgar businessman, but he was indeed someone worth getting to know.

It's just that Mrs. Jiang told the information she had obtained just now, but Wang Zhaodi still sat here with her drinking tea and chatting without changing her expression. This shows that people have already known about Yuan Wenjing and Jing Heng's little tricks.

From this, Wang Zhaodi's very targeted words when listening to Huashui Pavilion yesterday, I think that people also know what kind of temper she has, so she deliberately exposed everyone's conspiracy in person, so that all those who plotted against her were exposed.

Lost face.

Wang Zhaodi was the one who really did not flatter others when he was in charge and never blaspheme in subordinates. Jiang Linxue never expected that he would be taught a lesson by a businessman's daughter today.

The subsequent conversation between the two people became much more relaxed and casual. Mrs. Jiang told a lot of anecdotes about the various banquets of the noble ladies of the Kyoto family, while He Xiaoman talked about a lot of boat racing and various strange experiences that he had made up. For a while,

While hearing Mrs. Jiang's admiration, she also understood that it was not that easy for merchants.

"Since it's so dangerous, why don't you end the boat trip and go do something easy to make a living?" Mrs. Jiang asked a silly question like "Why not eat minced meat?"

He Xiaoman smiled: "First of all, this is an ancestral business in the family. Secondly, if all the boat shops are included, there are more than 200 people. Where will they go to eat after the boat shop is over? Once the Wang family boat shop is disbanded and the Caobang family is the only one, will Madam ever

Have you ever thought about it, when all the water transportation in the three rivers is under the control of the Cao Gang, do you think they will still be as law-abiding as they are now?"

Due to the limitations of the times, Jiang Linxue naturally didn't understand what monopoly was, but she understood the reason why a shop owner bullied customers, and her face suddenly turned red: "Oh, I'm short-sighted, Zhao Di, I, Jiang Linxue, recognized you as a girl today.

, From now on, if my husband and I, the Jiang family, travel by water, they will definitely look for the Wang family’s ship.”

The two chatted happily. He Xiaoman wanted to keep the meal, but Jiang Linxue refused: "I haven't fully understood what happened yesterday. If I look for opportunities in the future, my sister must guard the door and don't let my posts fall into your lap.

In the hands of my son-in-law."

"Mother, mother!"

The two young men came in a hurry, both of them looking pretty.

Upon inquiry, it turned out that it was Yuan Jingjing who came after hearing the news.

"That guy surnamed Yuan is really annoying. He keeps squeezing his eyes at me like a cramp."

The two well-informed mothers laughed at each other, knowing that the restless adopted daughter must be planning something.

Oh.

What else could he be plotting? Of course he is the young master of the Lin family from Kyoto.

Before parting, He Xiaoman took out a Damascus dagger from the inner room. Knowing that the young master of the Lin family likes to dance with knives and guns, it was natural for him to give a gift that suited his taste.

Yuan Jingjing is out and about, so the blue kid should also be protected and sent out!

Lin Zuiran suddenly smiled brightly and called him "precious sword, precious sword", and hurriedly put it away like a beggar who saw a gold nugget.

Before leaving, he actually invited Wang Chuanzong to come and play with him when he had time. He wanted to take Wang Chuanzong to ride a horse and hunt.
