The reborn daughter of the Marquis Mansion takes over the world

Chapter 210 Is the wedding dress embroidered?

The second prince's face became extremely ugly when he looked at the rice noodles, clothes, medicinal materials and several carts of copper coins brought by Qingxu and the others.

He suppressed his temper and asked in a deep voice: "What do you mean, Mr. Qi Lang?"

Qingxu hurriedly explained: "Your Highness, our boss said that it is almost autumn now, and it is most practical to donate these materials to the victims. In addition, we also specially collected the scattered copper coins in all the shops of Su's Trading Company, so that Your Highness does not need to Then go to the bank to exchange them and count them directly so that they can be distributed to the victims as soon as possible."

"You!" When the second prince heard this, he became even more angry and glared at Qingxu's serious face, his eyes full of anger.

But in public, he always took his status as a prince into consideration and could not reprimand them.

Suppressing his anger, the second prince gritted his teeth coldly and said, "Your Highness, thank you very much, Mr. Qilang, for your generosity!"

Qingxu and Qiang Ze clasped their fists and said, "Your Highness is serious. Our boss heard that His Highness personally came to collect donations to take care of the victims. We at Su's Trading Company will definitely support us. If there is any shortage of supplies, please send someone to let us know." , we will do our best to help you. I bid farewell to you guys!"

The second prince stared at the two of them with cold eyes, and angrily waved his sleeves and ordered: "Come here, go and count Qi Langjun's donation!"

Hearing his trembling voice with anger, Qingxu and Qianze turned around and couldn't hold back their laughter.

"Third Miss, this trick is really a relief!"

"You haven't seen the second prince's face. Sometimes it's black, sometimes it's red, and it changes color!"

"Hahaha!" The two of them whispered, laughing and gloating.

They had just walked a few steps when Wen Nian came to the donation office with a group of goods and bowed to the second prince:

"I have met His Highness the Second Highness. The younger one was sent by the third lady of Ninghou Mansion to donate supplies."

As he spoke, Wen Nian pointed to the things loaded on the truck and introduced them: "These are dried fish, dried vegetables that are abundant in Cangzhou, and some old clothes collected from nearby neighbors and cleaned. I think the victims can use them." Go up. Please take a look at it, Your Highness!"

Wen Nian finished his report respectfully.

Hearing this, the expression on the second prince's face could no longer be tense. He pointed angrily at Wen Nian and asked sternly: "Is this the sincerity of Third Miss and the Fu family?"

Wen Nian's face did not change: "Our third lady said that donating urgently needed supplies to the victims is more important than donating money right now. Autumn is coming soon, and the floods have destroyed the crops in the fertile fields. This year's autumn harvest will definitely be difficult. When it comes, In winter, the people affected by the disaster had no food and their livelihood was difficult."

"Therefore, our third lady is willing to provide a village in the suburbs of Beijing to the court to help resettle the victims. In addition, we and all the shops under the Fu family's name will recruit disaster-stricken people as clerks to help them tide over the difficulties!"

As soon as these words came out, the crowd of onlookers talked a lot. They greatly praised Ning Ziqing's move and praised her for being able to put herself in the shoes of the victims and considerately so that they would have no worries.

The second prince was so angry that he wanted to use this opportunity to earn a good reputation for himself and win the favor of Emperor Yao.

Unexpectedly, Ning Ziqing and Su Yanqi actually embarrassed him in public and won praise from the people for their "good deeds".

After Wen Nian finished his reply, he bowed to the second prince and left.

The second prince clenched his hands into fists, his face darker than the ashes at the bottom of the pot.

But even if he wanted to get angry again, he couldn't do it in public, so he had to grit his teeth and signal a few officials to count the supplies and record them in a book.

Because all the copper coins Qingxu and the others brought were scattered, they did not tell them the specific amount.

The second prince could only stay hungry at the donation office and wait for the officials to go and count the carts.

In the end, even the entourage went to help count the copper coins, and they stayed up until midnight before the second prince returned to the mansion angrily.

On the second day, merchants in Kyoto followed Su Yanqi and Ning Ziqing's example and actively donated a lot of supplies.

The second prince was so angry that he almost vomited blood on the spot, but he still maintained his princely demeanor with a strong composure on his face.

When Ning Ziqing and Yaoyao heard Lin Wanqiao telling the recent jokes about this matter in Kyoto in Xiyuan, they were so happy that they burst into tears.

"You little naughty boy, you really didn't save any face for the second prince!"

Yaoyao laughed so hard that she leaned forward and backward.

Ning Ziqing sneered: "Who makes him so shameless? He doesn't just donate his wealth, but also wants to peel off a layer of skin from us. He thinks our money is blown by the strong wind, why should we give it to him?" Make wedding clothes. Be thicker than shameless. Who is afraid of whom? The only way to relieve your anger is to be more shameless than him!"

"You!" Lin Wanqiao laughed angrily and tapped Ning Ziqing's forehead.

"You are the one with the most clever ideas."

Suddenly, she stopped smiling and changed the topic: "Just by doing this, you and Qi Langjun have completely offended the second prince. Will he blame you and go to His Majesty to say bad things about you?"

When Lin Wanqiao thought of this, she couldn't help but worry about Ning Ziqing.

Ning Ziqing was very calm: "We have already done this, what else does he want from us? As long as the second prince asks for supplies, I will send them to him immediately. If you want me to donate money, just dream!"

Seeing Ning Ziqing's confident look, she must have been fully prepared. Lin Wanqiao felt relieved, picked up the embroidery stretcher on the side and asked Ning Ziqing to teach her how to embroider.

At this time, Yinxiang led the merchant ladies from the past few days in.

They specially brought thank-you gifts today to thank Ning Ziqing for taking the initiative for them.

Otherwise, the second prince will definitely be forced to donate a large amount of money this time.

Ning Ziqing accepted the thank you gift generously and invited them to sit around and chat.

The servants prepared tea and served it, and Yinxiang and Yaoyao brought various foods sent by the caravan. Lin Wanqiao and the others found that these were not sold in Kyoto.

Ning Ziqing told them that he wanted to open a snack shop and asked them to help taste them and choose some that tasted good and looked good to sell.

Lin Wanqiao and others readily agreed, tasted it carefully, and put forward their own opinions and suggestions from time to time.

The room was filled with laughter and a harmonious atmosphere. Yinxiang and Yaoyao saw Ning Ziqing enjoying themselves, with happy smiles on their faces.

While they were talking and laughing, Wen Nian walked in holding a box of pearls and a letter from the Fu family, and handed them to Ning Ziqing.

Ning Ziqing read the content of the letter and said in surprise: "Wen Nian, go and tell the prince that your grandfather and uncle's family are coming to Kyoto next month. Send people to clear out the Fu family's house in Kyoto."

When Wen Nian heard this, he happily responded: "Young man, let's go right away."

Yaoyao couldn't help but tease Ning Ziqing: "Now that the old man is here, I wonder how he will pamper you?"

Ning Ziqing made a face at her, making Lin Wanqiao and the others laugh.

Ning Ziqing felt instantly happy and placed the box of pearls on the table.

"Sisters, come and pick some. If you like them, take them back and make them into jewelry."

A young lady was surprised and said: "Miss Third, you want to give us pearls? How can you be so embarrassed?"

Several other ladies also declined one by one.

Ning Ziqing persuaded them: "If you are embarrassed, don't be polite to me. Sister Lin, you choose first."

Lin Wanqiao hesitated for a moment, looking at Ning Ziqing's insistent expression and feeling embarrassed to refuse her kindness.

I had to choose two pale pink pearls in the box.

"I happen to want a pair of pearl earrings, so thank you Miss Third."

As soon as she took the lead, several ladies followed and chose the pearls they liked.

After they happily thanked Ning Ziqing, a young lady suddenly said with some worry: "Miss Third, now all the major businesses in Kyoto are recruiting male workers from the victims. One of them can maintain the basic livelihood of the whole family by working alone. However, , some widowed women have children, and their life is not easy. Is there any way to help them? "

Hearing this, several people looked at Ning Ziqing in unison.

Ning Ziqing was silent, nodded approvingly to the young lady and said, "I do have an idea, but right now I can't get out of the Hou Mansion, so I have to ask a few sisters for help."

"Miss Third, it doesn't matter, we are willing to help."

Ning Ziqing continued: "I want to teach Mrs. Xiang'an's embroidery skills. Anyone who is willing to learn is welcome. After learning, the embroidery can be sold on behalf of the embroidery shop. All the money will go to the embroiderer, and the embroiderer will not charge a penny."

As soon as she finished speaking, Lin Wanqiao and the others looked happy, and they admired Ning Ziqing even more.

Lin Wanqiao's eyes lit up: "I am willing to contribute. From now on, I will come to learn embroidery from you every day, and then teach those women."

Several ladies also agreed.

In this way, after they got together to discuss the specific matters, it was time to apply.

Lin Wanqiao and the others stood up to say goodbye and left. Ning Ziqing personally escorted them out of Xiyuan.

After walking a few steps, Lin Wanqiao suddenly turned back and asked with a chuckle: "Miss Third, you are going to be tired during this period. I wonder if your wedding dress has been embroidered?"

Ning Ziqing was stunned, shook his head and replied: "Not yet."

Lin Wanqiao took her hand and reminded her intimately: "After you finish this work, you should hurry up and embroider your own wedding dress. I see that Qi Langjun is so concerned about you, I'm afraid he can't wait to propose marriage." Alright."

Hearing Lin Wanqiao's words, Ning Ziqing's expression was unnatural.

Afraid of being seen, she quickly nodded to cover it up with a guilty conscience.

After sending Lin Wanqiao away, Ning Ziqing returned to the house gloomily and sat at the table in a daze.

She felt as if she hadn't seen Huo Yunjue for a long time, and she missed him even more.

Seeing her like this, Yaoyao couldn't help but sigh: "Keep your body and mind happy, otherwise Ah Qi will have to worry about you again."

Ning Ziqing rolled her eyes at her displeasedly: "Why are you and him like my brother now? You have to take care of everything!"

Yaoyao choked and left angrily, asking for trouble.
