The old lady sighed with mixed feelings, "I was just thinking, if the second son hadn't met Chen in Lin'an..."

?

If the Second Master had not been bitten by a poisonous snake in Lin'an and was rescued by Chen, and some physical contact had occurred during the process, he would have had to marry Chen to repay her kindness. The Second Master and the First Lady were a perfect match made in heaven, and the First Lady would not have suffered a miscarriage due to depression. After years of treatment, there was no effect, so she could only take concubines for the First Master to have more children, and the First House did not even have a legitimate son.

?

If the second master had not gone to Lin'an, none of this would have happened. The Feng family would have been so happy.

?

Why is it like today, when the first wife has no legitimate son, the marriages of the second wife's children are affected?

?

The old lady didn't say the second half of the sentence, but just sighed and said, "What you said is that the fate between people cannot be forced, so let them be."

?

The old woman didn't dare say more and changed the subject with a smile.

?

As she was talking, Xie Liuzheng came in from outside. The old lady pulled her to sit next to her and helped to tuck the few strands of hair that had fallen on her ears behind them. "Didn't I tell you that I'm well now? You don't have to come to me every day. Help your mother more at home. It's not easy for your mother to support such a big family business as a woman."

?

Xie Liuzheng smiled and said, "To Liuzheng, you are as important as my mother. Besides, business is not busy these days, and I have nothing to do at home."

?

Xie Liuzheng really didn't say this to comfort the old lady. Before the Mid-Autumn Festival, Xiuyunfang launched a price war and pocketed most of the autumn and winter orders.

?

Not to mention the Xie family, all the silk shops in Yangzhou were experiencing a terrible business, with only some small daily businesses remaining.

?

Fortunately, after Xiuyunfang won the winter orders, it adjusted its prices to be almost the same as the market prices. However, everyone is also wary that Xiuyunfang is preparing to make another big move after the New Year to grab the spring and summer orders.

?

Xie Xiangyu has been immersed in the silk factory during this period, studying new materials with several masters and preparing to deal with Xiuyunfang. The business in the shop is average.

?

Xie Liuzheng knew that the old lady was impatient to listen to these business matters, so she did not elaborate with her. She mentioned it and changed the subject. "Just now when I entered the door, I met the master of Jizhen Embroidery Studio. He said that the mansion wanted to customize a wedding dress for the young master and came to finalize the pattern. If there is anything I can help with, just ask, old lady."

?

Most of the Xie family's business is in silk, and they are related to the Feng family. However, the embroidery used in Feng Yushu's wedding was not ordered from the Xie family, and the old lady was quite embarrassed.

?

However, these matters were all decided by the Second Madam before, and the Old Madam couldn't break the contract and hand it over to the Xie family instead. That would not be good for the Xie family or take care of the Xie family's business, but would bring hatred on the Xie family from Zhenxiuzhai.

?

"There are only a few pieces for the wedding, so what can you do? Your aunt will help you decide. You don't need to worry about it."

?

Xie Liuzheng probably guessed what the old lady meant, and was very touched. She leaned on her shoulder and acted like a spoiled child: "The old lady loves Liuzheng so much, Liuzheng must have been a good person in his previous life."

?

The old lady was amused by her and pinched her cheeks, "You are so sweet-mouthed. Whoever marries you in the future will be blessed after several lifetimes of hard work."

?

Xie Liuzheng accompanied the old lady for lunch and served her a nap before leaving the Feng family. When the carriage was halfway there, it was suddenly stopped by Qin Guangjin.

?

After not seeing him for a few days, Qin Guangjin looked much worse, with bags under his eyes almost hanging down to his cheekbones.

?

Xie Liuzheng already knew that his purpose in doing this was to get her birth date and horoscope so that he could control her through marriage, so she was too lazy to pay attention to him anymore, but she had to give him some face in front of others and respond with a few words.

?

"I still don't know about your birthday. I'll contact you when I have some information."

?

The meaning is very clear. Before I look for you, don't come hanging around me for no reason.

?

Qin Guangjin pretended to be mysterious and said, "Do you know who Xie Xiangyu has been meeting recently? You don't know, right? I'm telling you, your good days are coming to an end."

?

"This is not the place to talk. Let's go to the restaurant ahead and I'll tell you in detail."

?

Xie Liuzheng didn't believe that anyone or anything could take away Xie Xiangyu's love for her. She was worried that Qin Guangjin would set his sights on Xie Xiangyu. After thinking quickly for a moment, she decided to go and see what Qin Guangjin was up to.

?

Seeing that she was about to get off the car, Qiuyue quickly advised her: "Miss, Qin Guangjin has no good intentions, and Fang Cheng is not here. Don't go. Be careful of falling into Qin Guangjin's trap."

?

Xie Liuzheng patted Qiuyue's hand and whispered in her ear, "I'm also worried that Qin Guangjin has bad intentions. Go find Fang Cheng quickly and ask him to bring more people."

?

Qiuyue wanted to say something, but Xie Liuzheng pushed her hand away and said, "Qin Guangjin may not dare to harm me in broad daylight. If you are really worried about me, then do as I say."

?

After saying that, he got off the carriage without looking back and motioned for Qin Guang to go into the restaurant to talk.

?

Qiuyue gritted her teeth and urged the driver to take her to find Fang Cheng.

?

Xie Liuzheng followed Qin Guang into a private room, where a table full of fine wine and delicious food was already placed.

?

Qin Guangjin sat down at the main seat and called Xie Liuzheng, "Sit down and eat while we talk. I have been working hard for you these past few days and I haven't even had time to eat yet."

?

Xie Liuzheng pulled the corner of his mouth, found a seat and sat down, but did not pick up the cups and chopsticks, observing the environment calmly. Seeing that the window was wide open and the door was closed, he could vaguely hear the waiter downstairs greeting the guests, and he felt more at ease.

?

"I'm sorry to bother you. Who did my mother meet just now? My mother is a businesswoman. She meets so many people every day that she can't even count them. There's nothing to be surprised about."

?

Qin Guangjin took a piece of fish belly and stuffed it into his mouth, sneering: "Since I specifically mentioned it to you, I am certainly not an ordinary person. You don't have to provoke me. I want to tell you."

?

"That person is a man, no older than 25, with a decent appearance, but obviously a gigolo. The two of them were locked in the room for quite a while, and who knows what shameful things they were doing."

?

"Xie Xiangyu has a gigolo, maybe she will get pregnant with a bastard soon. How can a fake like you live a good life then?"

?

Xie Liuzheng had advised Xie Xiangyu several times to find a good man to be with her so that she could share some of the hard work in business.

?

However, Xie Xiangyu always said that a good man is harder to find than natural silk. If you find an unreliable one, it will not only fail to help you but also cause trouble for you, which is not worth it.

?

Naturally, I wouldn't believe that Xie Xiangyu would do such a shameless thing.

?

"Your lie is too outrageous. If my mother really met with a pretty boy in secret as you said, she would have to find a place unknown to others. How did you know so clearly?"

?

Qin Guangjin did not mention that he had asked the man to monitor Xie Xiangyu. He only said, "I have already said it. Believe it or not. Don't wait until Xie Xiangyu kills you before you regret it."
