The prince dotes on his wife: a reborn peasant woman is not easy to mess with

Zhou Xiaoyuan thought about it and breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that she shouldn't have said anything that shouldn't have been said to damage her image.

After listening to Xia Yechen's introduction with a smile on her face, she barely got an impression of Mo Bai. It turned out that what he said was true. Although this man looked like a wealthy and elegant family, in fact he was running away. He grew up in the west because he was an imperial businessman, the kind who inherited the family business.

It is said that Xia Yechen met him at the border. Xia Yechen did not say much about the specific situation. The two quickly chatted together. Zhou Xiaoyuan was about to leave, but she heard that Mo Bai wanted to develop the capital.

Thinking of her stillborn snack bar, although Zhou Xiaoyuan also discussed with Zhao Wu later on when to officially open it.

But both of them are novices and are not skilled in these things.

In addition, with her marriage approaching, Zhou Xiaoyuan has many things to take over, so that the snack bar is still on the land.

Thinking of this, Zhou Xiaoyuan felt that maybe she should talk to Xia Yechen. Isn't it a good opportunity now? Maybe the two of them can give an idea.

Xia Yechen probably didn't expect that Zhou Xiaoyuan would be interested in doing business. The two were reminiscing about the past, and Zhou Xiaoyuan specially passed some tea for them to have a good chat.

He lowered his head and just took a sip when Zhou Xiaoyuan over there boldly asked, "Why did the young master just want to come to the capital recently? I thought that most of the royal merchants made their fortune in the capital and then spread to other places."

Hearing this, Mo Bai laughed and said tactfully:

"I think this is right, but my family did not develop from the capital... Maybe it can only be said that my ancestors were lucky."

Once you have the beginning, it will be easy to pick up later

After going down, Zhou Xiaoyuan asked other questions about business. Suddenly, even Mo Bai noticed something was wrong.

He was thoughtful and followed Xia Yechen's actions to sip tea together. After a pause, he said jokingly: "Young lady is so eager. Could it be that she wants to follow in my footsteps and go into business together?"

Zhou Xiaoyuan didn't notice his joke. She thought Mobai had seen something, so she nodded openly.

He said frankly that he really wanted to give it a try so that he could support himself in the future without relying on Xia Yechen.

Zhou Xiaoyuan didn't pause at all when she said this, which shocked the two men listening next to her. Xia Yechen was even more surprised and confused, thinking that he had done something wrong. He stood up and wanted to defend himself. Zhou Xiaoyuan had already looked at it strangely. He went over and blinked in confusion.

"Why do you look like this? Is there something wrong with what I said? Do you think doing business is something shameful? I haven't seen you say anything about this before."

Zhou Xiaoyuan asked curiously, not thinking from her own side at all, so Mo Bai could only cough and glance at Xia Yechen unconsciously.

Obviously, he already knew Zhou Xiaoyuan's identity from the beginning.

Xia Yechen didn't realize what he was thinking, but this didn't mean that Xia Yechen would allow his wife to appear in public like this. Even if they were a couple who were not yet married, Mo Bai felt that he should make it clear to Zhou Xiaoyuan about the consequences. Then he said: "That's not true, but..."

"Nothing happens now, but if you get married in the future and marry Brother Yechen, it will probably be difficult for you to show up in public."

Mo Bai originally wanted to clarify the objective conditions of this matter for her.

, but when he said these words, it seemed as if he was trying to persuade Zhou Xiaoyuan not to get married, so as soon as the words came out, Xia Yechen's expression became complicated.

However, Zhou Xiaoyuan didn't understand it directly. She understood Mo Bai's correct meaning, but her answer was equally unexpected.

"Don't worry. If Yechen supports me, these problems will not become problems. Yechen - what do you think?"

As soon as the words came out, Zhou Xiaoyuan realized her mistake.

She had never made it clear to Xia Yechen at the beginning, so asking him now might have only one result. Sure enough, when Zhou Xiaoyuan turned her head, Xia Yechen directly turned her head and took a drink of water, her avoidance attitude was very obvious.

Zhou Xiaoyuan could see his disapproval. Even though she understood in her heart, she was still unhappy when faced with Xia Yechen's uncooperative state.

The two of them were silent for a while. Zhou Xiaoyuan pursed her lips. No one was giving face to the other, which made Mo Bai next to him the most embarrassed. For a moment, he didn't even know what to say. In the end, Zhou Xiaoyuan reacted and answered with a dry smile. He said, "Actually, I'm not very interested."

"It's better to talk about this matter later. There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and there will always be a day when the sun shines brightly. Mr. Mobai, are you right?"

Mo Bai didn't dare to say anything wrong. He smiled politely and nodded, secretly wiping his sweat. He just hoped that next time the two of them could discuss alone and not argue like this in front of the guests.

Otherwise, Mo Bai really didn't know who to persuade when this quarrel broke out. After thinking about it, Mo Bai suddenly realized that he actually agreed with Zhou Xiaoyuan more. It was already difficult for female relatives to stand up, and Zhou Xiaoyuan

Yuan's kind of motivated people are even rarer.

If Xia Yechen is willing to support it, this matter is actually a good thing... If this is a family matter, there is really no need for his friend who came to Beijing to say this.

Thinking of this, Mo Bai calmed down again, and Xia Yechen beside him also calmed down and said calmly: "My wife is just laughing, so Mo Bai doesn't need to pay attention."

After saying that, he asked Mo Bai about his future plans and whether he wanted to stay in the capital for a long time.

Even though Zhou Xiaoyuan knew that Xia Yechen didn't agree with her idea, she couldn't help but listen attentively to Xia Yechen's question, full of curiosity.

Mo Bai looked amused and didn't mind their changing the subject. He nodded and said, "The Mo family's main business is not in the capital, but they do have a store after all."

"This year happens to be a three-year inspection of shops, and I just made it. I'm not sure how long I will stay. Maybe I can stay until the end of the year."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Xiaoyuan couldn't hold it any longer.

She also wanted to see what Huang Shangzhi's stores looked like, so she couldn't help but ask a few questions, "Inspection? Is once every three years too long? How can we judge that these stores are operating normally?"

Seeing that Zhou Xiaoyuan was also curious about this matter, Mo Bai smiled and invited frankly: "Hearing is false, seeing is believing."

"If the girl is really curious, why don't we make an appointment at this time next time and go take a look together?"

Mo Bai said this because Zhou Xiaoyuan was really curious about this matter. He had observed Xia Yechen's face while he was talking, but the usual observation of words and expressions used by businessmen did not work at this moment.

Almost used by Zhou Xiaoyuan

The moment after Li nodded and agreed, Xia Yechen's expression changed and he even stood up.
