Tragic death and rebirth, the daughter of a general poisoned the government and the country
Chapter 46: Changsheng Shop
She had only met her grandmother twice in her previous life, so she knew nothing about these things. When she got married in her previous life, she had not seen any shops or farms. On the contrary, when Lin Qingrou married Nan Huaishuo, she brought a lot of shops and farms as a dowry, and it turned out that they all belonged to her mother!
Lin Yushu couldn't help but clench her fists. Her chest felt like it was blocked by a piece of cotton and she felt very suffocated.
My grandmother didn't look well, and I guess she was very angry.
"Don't worry, Shu'er. Chen and your second aunt don't have any useful people under their command. Over the years, the actual management of your mother's shop is still in the hands of the old shopkeeper, who is all from the Ji family!"
Grandmother's expression eased and she showed a smug smile. Over the years, Chen had thought of ways to get rid of the Ji family, but unfortunately, they didn't have the ability. As long as the Ji family was deprived of real power, the shop would inevitably turn from profit to loss. No matter how Chen tried, she couldn't change the situation of huge losses.
In desperation, these twenty shops still rely on the Ji family to manage. Chen despises the Ji family the most because they come from a merchant family, but she just can't leave them!
"Shu'er, these twenty shops are your mother's dowry. I will never let them fall into Chen's hands!" Now that Lin Yushu has returned to Beijing and has reached the age of marriage, these business matters have to be handled by an old woman like her. She must not let Chen get away with it for nothing.
After chatting for a long time, my grandmother looked tired and kept rubbing her knees with her hands.
"How is grandma's leg disease?"
When she saw her grandmother walking unsteadily, Lin Yushu remembered that her grandmother suffered from a serious leg disease. In her previous life, not long after she married Nan Huaishuo, her grandmother even had difficulty getting out of bed.
"Ah, it's still the same, an old bone..."
Lin Yushu stood up and walked to her grandmother, gently took her pulse, and gradually had an idea in her mind.
Seeing Lin Yushu's actions, the grandmother knew that she knew something about pharmacology, so she asked everyone to disperse and took Lin Yushu to the inner room.
"To be honest, grandma, I have lived in the Lin Mansion's annex for many years. I have been fortunate to be taught by an immortal master and have a basic understanding of pharmacology. If you trust me, I will let Shu'er treat your leg disease."
How could the grandmother not agree? She thought Lin Yushu was perfect in every way and would not complain even if her leg was broken due to the treatment.
Lin Yushu took out the silver needles and performed acupuncture on her grandmother's legs. Just after taking her pulse, Lin Yushu already knew the cause of her grandmother's leg disease. It was fundamentally due to the blockage of the meridians in the legs, but the blockages were scattered in various parts of the legs, with varying depths, sizes, and even manifestations.
General medication and acupuncture cannot eliminate the root cause, but fortunately Lin Yushu still has the foundation of poison making in her previous life, so acupuncture and medication are no problem.
Watching Lin Yushu finish the acupuncture, Ji tried to move his legs, and they indeed became much lighter and more flexible!
Ji felt relieved, thinking that the rumors about Lin Yushu being stupid were all false, so she told Lin Yushu about her plans for the twenty shops.
……
After hearing this, Lin Yushu exclaimed that the old ones are the wisest, and she is worthy of being a grandmother. It seems that if she acts in this way, these twenty shops will soon be back in Lin Yushu's hands!
After leaving the Duke Qing's Mansion, Lin Yushu stopped by the Cao Mansion and met Madam Cao. Although Madam Cao was very dissatisfied with Lin Yushu's increasingly thin appearance, after Lin Yushu's consolation, she did not intend to mention the affairs of the Lin Mansion to Lord Cao again.
Lin Yushu felt a little relieved. If Lord Cao continued to target Lin Minglang, given the vicious methods used by Lin Minglang and Nan Huaishuo, Lord Cao would probably die sooner or later.
After leaving Cao's house, it was still early, so Lin Yushu, under the protection of the Lin's house guards, went to stroll around the northern part of the capital.
There are two major markets in the capital, South Market and North Market. South Market is mostly small workshops and food shops selling all kinds of gadgets and snacks. At night, there are also juggling and magic shows, which is very lively.
Most of the shops in the North City are big shops, and they are frequented by dignitaries. There are many shops selling rouge, spices, jewelry, and jade, as well as big restaurants and study rooms. Half of the 20 shops that Lin Yushu's mother bought as a dowry were in the North City.
However, she didn't come here to check the shop this time.
Lin Yushu wandered around downtown Taipei, and relying on her memories from her past life, she finally found the pawnshop - Changshengpu.
The storefront of Changsheng Shop is not big. Among the many tall and upright shops, it looks particularly inconspicuous, even a bit shabby.
Lin Yushu did not go into the pawnshop immediately, but turned and walked into a clothing store on another street and slowly picked and chose.
Every time Lin Yushu picked up a piece of clothing to look at it, Chuntao beside her felt that what Lin Yushu was picking up was not clothes, but her heart!
My dear lady, don't you know whether you have money in your pocket?
Chuntao kept winking at her, and Lin Yushu was puzzled when she saw it, "Are your eyes uncomfortable?"
……
Chuntao was speechless and choked with emotion.
The guards were standing at the door. Lin Yushu picked up two dresses and turned to look at the second floor.
The waiter was very discerning and didn't care how shabby Lin Yushu's clothes were. After all, she was followed by several guards, so she must be a lady from a wealthy family!
The waiter took the dress that Lin Yushu liked and served her attentively.
"Miss, please come this way. The clothes on the second floor of our store are more exquisite, made of more sophisticated materials, and the prices are... also higher."
Upon hearing this, Lin Yushu followed the waiter upstairs without changing her expression, and turned around and ordered, "Just wait downstairs."
The group of guards obeyed obediently. After all, as servants, it was not appropriate for them to enter the shops where ladies were shopping, so as not to offend the nobles and bring trouble.
After choosing the dress, Lin Yushu asked to try it on in the warm room at the back. The waiter immediately wanted to call two maids to help Lin Yushu change clothes, but Lin Yushu refused.
The waiter smiled and retreated, standing guard at the stairs to the second floor.
After entering the warm room, Lin Yushu asked Chuntao, who was holding her dress, to guard the door and not let anyone in. She quickly put on her veil, opened the window and jumped down.
"Miss!"
Chuntao's heart was about to jump out of her chest, and she was relieved to see her young lady land safely without any injuries. But... when did the young lady become so skilled?
Lin Yushu walked along the street with her head down and quickly returned to the door of the Changsheng Shop. After making sure that no one was following her, Lin Yushu walked into the Changsheng Shop.
The interior of the shop is as plain as its facade. At first glance, it looks like an ordinary pawnshop. However, Lin Yushu knows that this pawnshop is not simple.
Changshengpu is an ordinary pawn shop on the surface, but it can accept any form of pawn transaction.
In the previous life, Nan Huaishuo had brought Lin Yushu here once. At that time, Nan Huaishuo wanted to kill an official under the Second Prince. In order not to leave any traces, he came to Changsheng Shop and exchanged the Soul-Captivating Powder made by Lin Yushu.
What was pawned was poison, and what was exchanged was life.
Changshengpu estimated the value of the Soul-Capture Powder and determined that no matter how many bottles of Soul-Capture Powder there were, they were only worth half a life. Nan Huaishuo had no choice but to agree.
Not long after, news came from the capital that the official was robbed by horse bandits in the suburbs of Beijing and was seriously injured and unconscious.
Lin Yushu touched the medicine bottle in her arms. She came here this time to pawn the poison in exchange for silver!
The owner behind Changshengpu is very mysterious and no one knows who he is.
Lin Yushu's veil tightly blocked her appearance, so she had to be extra careful. It would not be a good thing if she was spotted by the mysterious master of Changsheng Shop.
Behind the half-worn pawn shop counter, a clerk dressed in black and looking sleepy was dozing off.
Lin Yushu raised her voice, "Hey, business is coming."
Hearing this, the waiter's head slipped from his hands, and his chin hit the table with a bang, and he groaned several times.
He raised his head and was about to curse, but when he saw Lin Yushu, he was stunned... No, wasn't it a man who was talking to him just now? Why is it a girl? Was he dreaming?
The man said impatiently with a stern face: "What do you want to be?"
"You can't do my business, let the shopkeeper come to see me."
Oh my god! Is this hoarse voice coming from the little girl in front of me?! Maybe it’s the rough guy Qiao Zhuang pretending to be her!
