The Prince's Humen's Wife

Chapter 103 A Kiss (3)
Just as she was about to say something, Dongyue said outside that the carriage was ready, she just pouted and swallowed what she wanted to say, some things just need to be done, and there is no need to tell the facts.

Lan Lingyu and Li Chaochao walked to the door together, he suddenly pressed her hand that opened the door, and wanted to say something, but he saw each other's trust, support and encouragement in each other's eyes, and he didn't have to say anything he wanted to say or do He has already understood the expression, and sometimes he thinks that maybe this is due to the rebirth of the two people together, but now there will be another reason to explain it more appropriately, that is, they are in love.

He rubbed Li Chaochao's head with a smile, then opened the door, and said in front of the people standing outside: "We had a very happy conversation with Miss Wu today, we will continue someday, I hope Miss will not give up."

"Senior Lan, you are welcome."

Li Chaochao also pretended to be nothing, and greeted Lan Lingyu aloofly and politely, and then said to the bewildered Li Boxing: "Second brother, see off the guests."

Li Boxing didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly took Lan Lingyu downstairs. Li Chaochao stood behind for a long time, watching the man who was already the only one in her life walking away in a grand manner, she couldn't help smiling. The kiss she gave to Lan Lingyu was still the moment when she wanted to leave. Lan Lingyu could definitely force herself, but he didn't. He just wanted to follow his own heart. Based on this, she didn't choose him wrong.

"Girl, are you okay?" Dongyue beside her asked weakly.

Li Chaochao raised her eyebrows in confusion, Dongyue pointed to her mouth, then looked down suspiciously, she immediately understood that her mouth was swollen.

She stroked her forehead, turned back into the room, and put some dried lilacs in her sachet to put on her mouth. Dongyue helped to finish the cooking without saying a word, and muttered strangely, " Why does the girl's mouth get swollen every time she meets Lan Shizi?"

Li Chaochao glanced at her, and coughed lightly twice without embarrassment, "Don't talk about everything today with others when you go back, do you understand?"

Dongyue nodded silently, Li Boxing hurried up after sending Lan Lingyu away, and saw that Li Chaochao hadn't left yet, so he sat down at the table and wanted to ask a lot, but he didn't know where to start.

However, Li Chaochao has already taken the initiative to explain the most important thing, "In a few days, someone from the capital may come to talk about spices. After you ask who the other party is, don't cooperate easily. In addition, people from Prince Jing's mansion or Mu Xueyi will come again. Just say that I'm not here, and I won't come to the shop in the future, and let Xiangchen contact you about the incense powder."

All the gossip in Li Boxing's heart was blown away by Li Chaochao's instruction, "Did Prince Jing come to seek your cooperation?"

"No cooperation."

"Not cooperating?"

Li Boxing almost jumped up. Who doesn't know that Prince Jing's Mansion is a big order. With Li Chaochao's intelligence and foresight, how could he make such a decision? He was very surprised and had to ask clearly, "Why?"

Li Chaochao glanced at Dongyue quickly, and Dongyue retreated outside the door knowingly, and she said, "Let me ask you, what are the benefits of cooperating with Prince Jing's Mansion?"

"Of course there are many benefits, not to mention the money, but the fame is enough to overwhelm the three major incense powder shops in the capital."

"and then?"

Li Boxing was stunned for a moment, not understanding why Li Chaochao asked the question knowingly, but he still said patiently: "If we become famous, the dignitaries in Beijing will naturally buy our incense powder, and some people who want to curry favor with Prince Jing's mansion will also make friends with us."

"so what?"

"..." Li Boxing became upset, and he pursed his lips and remained silent.

Li Chaochao shook his head with a smile, "Of course I know everything you said, but to become famous, no matter how much money you earn, you must know that you have a life to earn, and you have to have a life to spend. We have no background and no influence... ..."

She saw that Li Boxing seemed to want to pull Mu Xueyi out as a backer, Li Chaochao decisively interrupted him, "I know you want to say that you can attach yourself to Prince Jing's mansion, but this is precisely the last thing you can do. It's complicated, not to mention that the three major families of incense powder merchants have different forces to support them. Once their interests are harmed, they will never look at Prince Jing's face and show mercy to us. Instead, they will find every opportunity to nibble us and frame us. , we were crushed before we became famous. Do you think Prince Jing’s Mansion will fight against those people because of our small powder shop? And we are attached to Prince Jing’s Mansion. If something happens to them one day, We are also the first to be unlucky."

Li Boxing frowned, and he had to say that Li Chaochao was really considerate.

Li Chaochao said indifferently: "I'm not scaremongering, the family house in one place of our Li's mansion is fighting to the death, but you must know that it is at the feet of the emperor, and it is a place where the weak and the strong prey. We don't have that kind of ability, we must not If you just attract the limelight, you will become the target of public criticism, and have you ever thought about the things I can consider, how can someone like Mu Xueyi, who has been obsessed with these struggles since childhood, understand better than I do, why he insists on cooperating with us?"

Li Boxing had long been convinced by what Li Chaochao said, and asked dryly, "Why?"

Li Chaochao snorted coldly, "That's because he wants to push us to the forefront, so that we have to rely on him, and when we get involved in the struggle, we are lucky if we win, and he won't help us if we lose, maybe he will make trouble , take over our stall and pick up a ready-made bargain."

Li Boxing really jumped up this time, with cold sweat running down his cheeks. If there is such a conspiracy as Li Chaochao said, he really needs to be careful in everything in the future, but there is one thing he doesn't understand, this woman who stays at home Where did such insight come from, that he even knows everything in the capital clearly?

Li Chaochao seemed to see his doubts, and said with a smile: "Actually, I don't know anything about that, but I just asked Lan Shizi for advice. Let's have more contacts with this person in the future. It won't do any harm."

She got up and walked out, Li Boxing said from behind: "I think it's okay, the noble young master from the capital has deep thoughts, I'm afraid it's hard to say even the second Prince Jing's son."

Li Chaochao paused, but didn't look back, and smiled faintly, "Lan Lingyu is different from Mu Xueyi."

As for the difference, Li Chaochao didn't say anything, and Li Boxing didn't ask, since she was sure of what she was doing, he should support it as an older brother.

Back in the mansion, Li Chaochao entered the Shuangzhu Pavilion through the corner gate. First, he heard that no one had been there, and then asked Qiushuang to put away the bank notes brought back, and then Xia He took care of him and fell asleep.

Then it was rainy and rainy for several days in the south of the Yangtze River. Li Chaochao just stayed in the house and did not go out. He mixed incense every day. When he was free, he sat with four maids and made embroidered sachets. He occasionally heard them talking about the business of Yangufang. No matter how good it is, it's just a faint smile.
