Marrying a rich man after rebirth: The daily life of a legitimate daughter

"Business at the cloth shop and the snack shop is a bit slow."

The managers of the two shops looked very uncomfortable when they heard what He Shulan said. They knew that the poor business of the shops was caused by Li Wanrong's cutting corners.

Although the matter was resolved by the prince, it was still affected. The cloth shop owner, Liu Niang, stood up and replied, "Princess, this is not our fault. Our business was good before, but it has plummeted since Aunt Li took over. We can maintain the normal expenses of the shop because of the reputation we have accumulated in the past."

Liu Niang didn't say it explicitly, but He Shulan knew what was going on. She handed the design drawing to Liu Niang and said, "In half a month, I plan to hold a peony banquet at the Prince's Mansion. I will invite the ladies and young ladies in the capital to attend. On that day, I will wear this dress."

Liu Niang looked at the design drawing in her hand. It was an apricot-colored tube-top dress, matched with an apricot-colored gauze coat of the same color. On the coat and the hem of the skirt, peonies were embroidered with silk threads of various colors. The dress had not been made yet, but just looking at this design drawing was enough to make people unable to take their eyes off it. "Princess, how did you come up with the idea of ​​embroidering peonies on the gauze skirt?"

This was not designed by He Shulan. She saw someone wearing a gauze skirt at a palace banquet. It was embroidered with flowers of different colors and was particularly beautiful. She borrowed someone else's idea and asked, "Can you make the dress according to the design drawing?"

"Yes, but it will take some time. The tulle skirt and jacket can be made very quickly. The most time-consuming part is to embroider the peony flowers on the tulle skirt. It is a delicate job."

He Shulan turned around and looked at the owner of the dim sum shop: "How many years have the dim sum in the shop not been changed?"

The manager thought about it carefully. Since he took over the dim sum shop for more than ten years, the dim sum in the dim sum shop has never changed: "Never changed."

He Shulan took out a piece of paper covered with words and gave it to the manager of the dim sum shop: "Here are the recipes for more than a dozen dim sum dishes. Take them back and discuss them with the chef. When the desserts are ready, let me taste them first. On the day of the Peony Banquet, you bring the chef to the Prince's Mansion and make them for the guests."

Li Biao, the owner of the dim sum shop, realized that He Shulan asked her to make these dim sum in order to let the noble lady in the capital city get to know the dim sum shop again, and continued to buy dim sum from the dim sum shop: "I will study these dim sum carefully after I go back, and after I make them, I will send them to the Prince's Mansion for the Princess to taste as soon as possible."

He Shulan did not continue to say anything extra. After finishing the discussion, he asked the servants in the mansion to see the leaders off.

At this time, Li Wanrong led Xing'er in.

He Shulan asked calmly, "What brings you here today?"

Li Wanrong thought of the evening when the prince and He Shulan went to the old lady's courtyard to eat together. She was so angry that now she and the prince had reconciled and their relationship had eased. She deliberately showed off in front of He Shulan and expressed the anger she had been holding in her heart for the past few days: "The prince will not come to your courtyard today, so you don't have to sit here and wait."

He Shulan was so angry that she laughed: "Which eye of yours saw that I was waiting for the prince."

"I saw it with both my own eyes. Now the prince and I have reconciled. Don't try to get between us. I will not give the prince to you. Don't seduce the prince again."

Li Wanrong's words made He Shulan at a loss for words. It was normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines, not to mention that the prince was so noble. "What on earth is in your head? If you care so much about the prince having three wives and four concubines, then why did you marry him? You might as well have chosen a commoner to marry, so that you could live a monogamous life."

"My head is filled with different things from yours." Li Wanrong responded bluntly: "The prince promised me that even if he married another woman, he would not be with her. The woman he married would only become a decoration in the prince's mansion." She said this with lack of confidence. Ever since He Shulan married into the prince's mansion, everything has changed.

He Shulan smiled but said nothing. Li Wanrong came to find her in such a hurry because she must have known that she and the prince would have dinner with the old lady tonight. "You have said this many times in front of me. You are not tired of talking about it, but I am tired of listening to you. If you can really capture the prince's heart, you wouldn't come here to show off." After that, she left the hall without paying any attention to Li Wanrong who was jumping up and down.

Chun Xia couldn't hold back her laughter any longer and glared at Li Wanrong: "Oh, some people are afraid of falling out of favor."

"How dare you mock me, you damned girl."

Chun Xia replied fearlessly: "There are so many people in the hall, and I didn't mention any names, why is Aunt Li so anxious?"

Li Wanrong was so angry that she was shaking all over. He Shulan was not a pushover, and her personal maid was even more sharp-tongued: "Beat Xing'er for me, teach Chunxia a lesson, let her remember it, and see if she dares to mock me again in the future."

She stood there waiting for a long time, but Xing'er didn't come forward. She turned her head angrily and said, "Didn't you hear what I said?"

Xing Er didn't forget that last time she and Chun Xia had a fight in the garden, she was beaten down by Chun Xia. She was no match for Chun Xia at all, so she could only make excuses: "Chun Xiang is the Princess's personal maid. If I dare to go up and hit her, the Princess will definitely not let me go."

"Aren't you afraid of me?" Li Wanrong attacked Xing'er for the first time and grabbed her ear: "I told you not to listen to me."

Xing'er screamed in pain, but she still didn't dare to move forward.

……

Taohua came to He Shulan's yard: "Princess, the old lady asked you to move to her yard for dinner."

"Okay." He Shulan walked to the old lady's yard in the setting sun. As soon as she walked into the gate, a strong wind blew and made her stop.

Under the big tree in the courtyard, the prince in red brocade clothes was dancing with the spear in his hand. His movements were smooth and powerful, and the dead leaves that fell on the ground were flying in the air.

In her past and present lives, it was the first time that she saw the prince wielding a spear. In the empty courtyard, there was clearly only him, but his powerful aura, as if he was commanding thousands of troops, made her look at him with new eyes.

After finishing his spear dance, the prince stopped, took the towel handed over by the maid, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and walked to the white-haired old man standing beside him: "Grandfather, has my martial arts regressed?"

The old man stroked his snow-white beard and laughed: "No, you are getting more and more skilled in using the spear..." before he finished his words.

The old lady walked out of the room and said, "No matter how skilled he is, I will not let him go to the battlefield. Just forget about it."
