The wealthy tycoon wants to be the white moonlight of the little village girl

Chapter 12: Find a way to make that woman cancel the engagement on her own initiative!

When Jingying and her daughter heard that the prince had returned, they hurried to the door to greet him.

Madam Du looked at Prince Jing eagerly, "Prince, how is it? Did the Emperor agree?"

Prince Jing was frowning and silent.

When Mrs. Du saw this, her heart immediately sank!

Jingying said softly: "Father, is it that the Emperor didn't agree?"

Prince Jing sighed and sat down, shaking his head and saying, "The Emperor has no time to see me!"

After that, he comforted her and said, "Don't worry. If it doesn't work, I'll go to the palace and ask the Concubine Dowager for help!"

Upon hearing this, Jingying lowered her eyes pitifully and said, "Father, forget it!

Since the emperor doesn't care, it's even harder for the concubine to speak up. Let's just accept our fate!"

Then he sat down without saying a word, silently shedding tears...

Prince Jing felt very sad when he saw his beloved daughter like this. He sighed deeply, stood up and comforted her, "Ying'er, don't worry, let your father think of a solution!"

He thought for a while and said, "Ying'er, among the four great families, isn't there still the Han family that hasn't married yet? If that doesn't work, we can consider his family! It's not like the Jiang family is the only one that's worthy of you!"

Jingying raised her tearful eyes and choked up, "But father, I only like Mr. Jiang!"

Prince Jing sighed and said, "Alas, silly child! What's the point of you liking him? The old lady doesn't like you! Why do you want to wrong yourself like this? There are plenty of young men from noble families. Wait for your father to think about it carefully and then choose a husband that suits your heart!"

Good child, don't cry, your father will send someone to find out, there are still those sons of famous families who have not yet married!"

Having said that, he stood up and hurried out.

Mrs. Du dismissed the maids in the room, came to sit beside her daughter, gently put her arm around her shoulders, and asked in a low voice: "What are you going to do now? If it really doesn't work, let's change families? The emperor dare not offend the Jiang family, and it's useless for your father to ask the concubine again."

Jingying snorted coldly and said bitterly, "I have worked hard for so long. If I give up now, won't I become a joke in the eyes of everyone?!"

Du asked, "What are you going to do?"

Jingying looked ahead with cold eyes and said word by word: "Since the Jiang family disagrees, let them agree!"

Mrs. Du thought her daughter was confused and angry, so she frowned and said, "But hasn't Mr. Jiang already set a date for the wedding?"

Jingying turned her head and looked at Mrs. Du and said, "Since he is determined to marry another woman, let that woman give up marrying him! Mother, are you willing to help me?"

Hearing this, Madam Du gently stroked her hair and said softly, "Silly child, as long as you can marry into a good family, I am willing to do anything you ask me to do!"

Jingying looked at her mother, Mrs. Du, curled her lips, and said coldly: "Okay, then we will let that woman cancel the engagement on her own initiative!"

……

Yao's house.

Qinghe is going to the Hu residence today.

This Mrs. Hu was a guest introduced to Qinghe by the wife of the prefect. She wanted Jiasier to make a new dress to wear at her mother-in-law's birthday party.

Qing He was in a very difficult situation. This was not something that could be completed in a few days. Just embroidering the auspicious pattern that she specifically requested would take a lot of effort, so she politely declined.

Unexpectedly, the other party was very powerful. He used some unknown means to persuade a customer who was ahead of him in the queue to give up his schedule and sent someone to deliver the deposit.

Finally, it was agreed that Qinghe would come to my house today to take measurements for tailoring.

When Qinghe packed up and went outside, she found a luxurious carriage parked at the foot of the stone steps.

A guard stepped forward and saluted respectfully, saying, "Miss Yao, we are sent by Master Jiang to pick you up."

This was what Jiang Yaonian had agreed with her yesterday. Qinghe said nothing and got into the carriage silently.

The driver whipped the carriage and drove towards Hu's house.

……

Hu Mansion.

After the servants reported, a little maid came out and took Qinghe in.

When they arrived at the upper room, there was a group of ladies sitting in a gorgeous atmosphere. Qinghe didn't recognize any of them, so she went forward to greet them.

The plump Mrs. Hu looked her up and down and asked in a long voice, "I heard from the prefect's wife that your craftsmanship is very good. I wonder which master did you learn from?"

Qing He replied, "Madam, I learned embroidery from my grandmother when I was young. It is a family craft."

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Hu's face darkened immediately after hearing this, and she complained: "Mrs. Song praised your craftsmanship so much, I thought it was taught by a famous artist! Who knew you were just an ordinary folk embroiderer!"

After hearing this, the other ladies in the room immediately echoed, "Yes! Who knows how good the craftsmanship is! If the clothes are messed up, it's not a big deal to lose money, but it's a big deal to lose face at the old lady's birthday party!"

"That's right, ma'am, you must be careful! It's better to find a reliable and famous master to do it!"

"Yes, I heard that Madam's sister-in-law hired the famous 'Golden Five Needles' in the capital to make her clothes!"

Everyone was talking about it, and Mrs. Hu's expression became more and more ugly...

She said to Qing He impatiently, "Forget it, you go back first! I'd better ask a familiar master to do it! I'll send someone to get the deposit back later!"

Qing He said calmly, "Madam, if you don't trust my craftsmanship, you can always hire someone else. But according to the rules of the industry, if the customer regrets, the deposit paid in advance cannot be refunded."

"what!"

When Mrs. Hu heard this, her eyebrows immediately frowned!

She said sternly, "How can this be possible! You are just a country girl, relying on your mediocre kung fu skills, and you dare to blackmail people like this!"

As she said that, she called over the maidservant, "Cui Ran, go! Call the housekeeper Lao Zhao to me! Bring a few servants with you, I don't believe that I can't get the deposit back!"

The maid agreed and went out. After a while, she led a thin middle-aged man and several servants to the upper courtyard. She went in and reported, "Madam, Lao Zhao and the servants have been called. They are now in the courtyard, waiting for your instructions."

Madam Hu sneered and said, "Okay!" Then she looked at Qing He and said, "Let me ask you again, will the deposit be refunded or not?!"

Qing He said calmly, "Mrs. Hu, there are rules in the industry. You were the one who begged me to do this, and I didn't trick you into doing it. Now you suddenly regret it for no reason. Isn't this embarrassing?"

With a loud "clang", Mrs. Hu was so angry that she threw the teacup in her hand towards Qinghe!

Qing He was shocked! She never expected that the customer introduced by Mrs. Song would be such a rude and mean shrew!

Qing He looked coldly at the furious fat woman in front of her, her heart pounding with nervousness. At the same time, she also wondered how such a person could become friends with Mrs. Song?

Fortunately, the teacup was smashed crookedly, otherwise I would have been killed today.

But the tea was flowing all over the floor, splattering broken porcelain pieces all over the floor!

The little maid hurried out to get a mop to wipe the floor.

Madam Hu pointed at Qing He and yelled, "I'm giving you face! How dare a stinky tailor like you talk to me about rules! Well, today I'll show you what rules are! Cui Ran, let Lao Zhao and the servant come in! Today I'm going to teach this ignorant girl a lesson!"

Before she finished speaking, a soft and sweet voice came from outside, saying, "I wonder who made my sister so angry!"
