The legitimate daughter returns, and the princess goes crazy

In the hot summer, the sun is blazing high in the sky, and even the wind carries a few traces of heat. The famous wine banquet brings a cool breeze to the hot season.

With Mo Yuche's support behind the scenes, as soon as Qianzui Villa sent out the invitation letter, talented people from all over the country rushed to the capital, and the momentum was extremely huge.

This time, the wine will be judged based on talent. The winner will not only receive 100 taels of gold, but will also become famous throughout the world.

Ever since Sun took over the family, she had become unexpectedly friendly towards Mu Yan. She would always give Mu Yan more than she wanted in her room. Although she had a rough personality, she was not a fool and knew that Mu Yan must not be offended.

Mu Ning also had some respect for Mu Yan in his heart because he had witnessed her abilities at the Hundred Flowers Banquet. However, he was unwilling to give in because of his little bit of self-esteem. However, he never bothered Mu Yan again afterwards, and Mu Yan was happy and at ease.

So when Han Bingjie and Lin Shishi came to visit, Sun was also very hospitable. She had people prepare some seasonal fruits and snacks early on, and even specially asked her personal maid Fang to meet them at the door.

"Yan'er, you are such a beauty." When the two saw Mu Yan's face, they took a deep breath and were stunned for a moment.

They had long heard that the daughter of the Minister of Personnel had become a great beauty after her facial appearance was restored.

"I heard that your third young lady was disfigured." Lin Shishi frowned.

"Okay, let's not talk about that kind of person." Han Bingjie didn't like Mu Wan the first time she saw her. She seemed to be very scheming at such a young age, and she deserved the fate she has now.

Mu Yan didn't want to continue the topic, so she quickly invited the two into the house.

"As expected of her as the eldest daughter of the Shangshu family, the room is so cool." Han Bingjie teased.

Today, four ice basins were specially placed in Mu Yan's room, and behind each ice basin there was a small fan that could rotate automatically.

Everyone has a fixed share of the things distributed in the Shangshu Mansion. The master and mistress of each room and their legitimate children get three ice basins every day, while concubines and illegitimate children only get two ice basins. Since they came today, Mu Yan specially diverted tomorrow's share.

Mu Yan pretended to glare at her, "What are you talking about? Can the place where you, the only daughter of the General of Cavalry's mansion, live be worse than mine?"

Lin Shishi also felt a cool breeze as she entered the room. "Yan'er, don't listen to her teasing. She is most afraid of heat. I'm afraid she has more ice basins in her room than you."

Mu Yan looked at the two of them curiously: "When did you two become so close?"

He also told Bai Lu to bring the watermelon that had been chilled in advance. The three of them chatted and ate watermelon in the cool room. It was such a pleasant experience.

"The last time I went out to buy something, someone stole my purse. Luckily Bingjie helped me get it back, otherwise I wouldn't know how to explain to my grandmother when I got home." Thinking of the experience that day, Lin Shishi was still frightened.

The three of them chatted and found out that Lin Shishi and Lin Yanyan were both learning housekeeping from Old Madam Lin during this period.

That day, Madam Lin gave them a test, asking them to go out and purchase some things for the mansion, to see who could buy all the items on the list at the most favorable price while ensuring quality.

That day, as soon as Lin Shishi got off the carriage, someone picked her pocket. Fortunately, Han Bingjie saw it, otherwise she would have returned empty-handed and would definitely have been ridiculed by Lin Yanyan.

Mu Yan lowered his eyes and thought for a moment. It was too much of a coincidence that he ran into a thief just after getting off the carriage.

She glanced at Lin Shishi's expression, and the two of them looked at each other, understanding each other tacitly.

There can't be so many coincidences. It must be the work of Lin Yanyan and her daughter.

The population of the General of Cavalry's mansion is simple. General Han and his wife are extremely loving and have not taken a concubine after being married for many years, so Han Bingjie does not understand the twists and turns of the mansion.

"You can stock up on more charcoal these days and sell it at a high price in winter," said Mu Yan.

In the previous life, that is, this winter, there was a snowstorm in Northern Qi, and the entire capital was extremely cold. The use of charcoal increased several times compared to previous years. The heavy snow blocked the roads, making it impossible to bring in charcoal. The price of charcoal in the capital doubled again and again, and there was basically no demand for it.

The price of charcoal in summer is the lowest throughout the year, and selling it in winter is profitable. This year's snowstorm will definitely make a lot of money.

Although Lin Shishi is the legitimate daughter, she is not favored by her father. Even with the daily subsidy from the old lady, she probably does not have enough money. If she can make a fortune and have enough money, she will be more able to protect herself in the mansion.

After all, money makes the world go round. The servants in the mansion also do things based on money. With money in their hands, they are confident.

Lin Shishi quickly agreed: "Okay!"

She had an inexplicable trust in Mu Yan and thought it was right to listen to her. When she returned, she would convert all the jewelry in her hands into cash to buy charcoal.

What Lin Shishi didn't know was that this decision had a huge impact on her. With the money she earned from the charcoal fire, she went from being strapped for cash to a small wealthy woman. She bought a lot of shops, properties and fertile farmland. Of course, this is a story for later.

"Did you know about the famous wine banquet recently hosted by His Royal Highness Prince Han?" Han Bingjie was not interested in the affairs of the housekeeper in the rear house, but she knew a little about wine, so she was looking forward to this famous wine banquet.

"Of course I know. There are a lot more people on the streets recently, every inn is full, and the room rates have increased several times." Although Lin Shishi is not interested in wine, wine tasting is not only about wine tasting, but also requires talent and knowledge, so she also paid some attention.

Mu Yan, needless to say, just didn't expect that Mo Yuche would reveal his identity as the boss behind the scenes in order to promote the famous wine banquet more widely.

In this way, the noble families of other countries will also yearn for it, after all, Mo Yuche represents the royal family of Northern Qi.

"The capital city has been very busy recently, with many shops opening up on the streets. The things they sell are things we've never seen before. For example, one shop sells perfume, which is much more fragrant than the soap we use." Lin Shishi continued.

perfume?

Mu Yan was stunned. Didn’t this thing only spread from the south to the capital after a few years?

How come it's here now?
