Marrying into a rich family by mistake, it is difficult to be a mistress

General Ji has 200,000 soldiers under his command, so his daughter's marriage is not a casual one.

Even if the Ji family chose a husband for Ji Shuangshuang, the emperor might not agree.

Since she came for the marriage, Princess Ning Xi also held a crab feast to introduce her to Ji Shuangshuang. Could it be that General Ji didn't want to rely all his wealth on Xiao Wenxuan and also considered the Crown Prince as a backup option?

Ji Chuhe sneered in his heart.

Sure enough, this General Ji is really a thousand-year-old fox!

After the crab feast, the imperial capital had an added beautiful scenery.

A woman in red rode a horse and galloped on the streets of the imperial capital. She was heroic and like a ball of fire, attracting the attention of the young talents in the imperial capital.

When everyone knew her identity, they admired her even more.

It turns out that Miss Ji grew up in the army! No wonder she is so generous, unlike ordinary people!

The ladies of noble families in the imperial capital usually stay at home and sit in a carriage even if they want to go out. But Miss Ji is different. She even drinks and talks about poetry among a group of men openly. Moreover, she can drink quite a lot, and many men feel inferior to her.

Moreover, this season's eldest lady is very approachable. She only considers a person's character when making friends, regardless of his or her background. In a short period of time, she has made many good friends.

In the past few days, the name Ji Shuangshuang has become the most discussed topic in the streets of the imperial capital.

Prince's Mansion.

Ji Chuhe was looking at the Royal Trading Company's account book for this month.

Under her management, the Royal Company currently has more than 30 shops. Except for the new shops opened by three people, which have not yet started to make a profit, the rest are all profitable.

Moreover, the profit of the shop with the best business has increased more than tenfold compared to before.

In just one month, these shops made a combined profit of 170,000 taels of silver.

I don't know if it's related to the war in the north, or if people are having a harder time, but the shop's business has generally been affected.

Compared with the profits from the shop she just opened in the imperial capital, it is really not worth mentioning.

She has 21 shops of her own in other county towns. All of these shops have porridge shops and offer free clinics on the first and fifteenth day of every month. Therefore, the profits of the shops are not high, and some even have to lose money to provide free porridge and clinics.

However, these shops earned a good reputation among the people for the Huaiyang Palace, her and the prince.

These will be of great use in the future.

"Madam!" Xiao Yan'an walked in from outside, greeted her, then went straight to the table, picked up the kettle, poured a glass of water, and drank it in one gulp.

Ji Chuhe looked up and found that Xiao Yanan was in a bad mood.

It seemed like he hadn't been this angry in a long time.

"Why are you so angry? What happened?" Ji Chuhe put down the account book and asked softly.

"Today, Xiao Si and I invited a few friends to charter a boat to go fishing. We wanted to catch some delicious fish and make soup for the lady, but we didn't expect to run into Ji Shuangshuang! She came over and wanted to go fishing with us. We should have gone fishing, but I don't know what was wrong with her. She actually cut a few bamboo arrows to shoot fish. The fish died before they even left the water. What's the point of this?"

"Is this matter worth the prince being so angry?"

"Of course not. I said a few words to her and she came up to me to compete. I told her that if she lost, she should leave immediately and not delay our fishing trip."

"What happened next?" Ji Chuhe asked hurriedly.

Her curiosity was really piqued.

"I won the fight, but she destroyed my boat! I didn't catch any fish! I'm so angry! How can there be such a barbaric woman in this world? It's totally unreasonable!"

Ji Chuhe could reconstruct the scene almost exactly just by imagining it.

Of course, Ji Shuangshuang wanted to get close to the prince, but she didn't expect that the prince always liked gentle and quiet women, not Ji Shuangshuang's type.

Ji Shuangshuang saw that the tricks she used on others were completely ineffective against the prince, and she became extremely angry.

After Ji Chuhe came back from the crab feast, she did not immediately tell Xiao Yanan about her guess.

She wanted to see first what actions Ji Shuangshuang would take.

It is said that the day after the crab feast, Princess Ning Xi brought Ji Shuangshuang into the palace to pay homage to the Empress Dowager, and presumably, she also met Xiao Wenxuan.

After meeting Xiao Wenxuan, Ji Shuangshuang is still flirting with Xiao Yan'an, which proves that Ji Shuangshuang is not interested in Xiao Wenxuan, but in Xiao Yan'an.

Ji Chuhe stared at Xiao Yanan, looking him up and down.

She met Xiao Yanan every day and she was not disappointed. He was very different now than before.

In the past, he was still a little green and immature, and his every move was like that of a young boy. Now, he has a sense of maturity and stability, his facial features are more angular, and he is even more handsome than before.

Also, her figure seems to be much stronger than before, with broad shoulders and narrow waist, and an upright posture, which is really eye-catching at first sight.

I wonder how many young girls' hearts have been stirred by people like him.

Xiao Yanan felt a little uncomfortable being looked at by Ji Chuhe, and a blush appeared on her face.

"Madam, is there something dirty on my face?" Xiao Yan'an raised his hand and wiped his face.

"No, I'm admiring your beauty." Ji Chuhe responded generously.

Xiao Yanan's cheeks turned even redder, and she couldn't help but feel shy in her heart, and she felt extremely happy.

Help! He's a man!

How could he become like this just because his wife praised his beauty?

I really want to dig a hole in the ground and crawl into it!

But, Madam, since you said that, do you also like his face?

In fact, sometimes, he is quite unconfident.

I always feel like I’m not good-looking enough, otherwise, why can’t I make my wife fall in love with me?

It turned out that the lady did notice his appearance.

If, from the very beginning, he had been devoted to his wife and only had her in his life, and would never take a concubine, could he have won his wife's love?

It’s a pity that this life was wrong from the very beginning.

He sometimes wonders.

Why, the lady was reborn, Shen Chengjing and Ji Qingyuan were also reborn, the four of them had entanglements in their past lives, why was he the only one who was not reborn?

If he was also reborn, would the development between him and his wife be different from what it is now?

Ji Chuhe could never have imagined that just a simple sentence from her could make Xiao Yan'an think of so many things.

"Prince, have you ever thought about why Ji Shuangshuang suddenly came to the imperial capital?" Ji Chuhe suddenly changed the topic to business.

"Ah?" Xiao Yan'an's thoughts had not yet returned to their senses, and he did not hear what Ji Chuhe said.

"Prince, do you know why Ji Shuangshuang came to the imperial capital?" Ji Chuhe was ready to tell Xiao Yan'an the truth.

Now that Ji Shuangshuang has come to our door, we have to be on guard.
