The reborn businesswoman is the queen

Chapter 88
With tears in her eyes, Mama Chen put her arms around her to comfort her: "Miss don't cry, there will always be a way, we can definitely live!"

"How do I live?" She didn't say anything, but when she said it, Xu Xuan burst into tears: "That bastard Qin Changyi took away all my valuables, we are penniless, and we will be hungry within two days died!"

Crying too hard, her stomach throbbed, Xu Xuan turned pale, and bent over into Chen Ma's arms.

Chen Ma hugged her distressedly, tears could not stop falling.

Listening to Xu Xuan's words, she secretly sighed in her heart.Return to Mu's house?Easier said than done!Did the lady think that Master Mu would take them in after so many things happened?Originally, the young lady had a belly to rely on, but Qin Changyi made it public. Now that the child is gone, Mr. Mu's family has a great career, and there is no one around him, so how can he accept her?
Qin Changyi, it's all Qin Changyi's fault!

A trace of resentment flashed in Chen Ma's heart, just thinking of this name made people gnash their teeth.

When he left Mu's house that day, Xu Xuan was pushed down by him, and the child in her stomach was hit violently, causing a miscarriage on the spot.In order to recuperate, Xu Xuan sold a jade bracelet and bought this quiet courtyard, and Qin Changyi also moved here from the inn.

Xu Xuan is weak and has been bedridden these days.When she left from Mu's house, Mu Zhizhao didn't do too much after all, and didn't take back the jewelry that she gave her before coming to Mu's house.The money was quite a lot, so Xu Xuan handed it over to Chen Ma for safekeeping.At first, Qin Changyi was so guilty that he stayed in front of Xu Xuan all day long, and said a lot of sweet words, making Xu Xuan's heart full of joy and trusting him 100%, so he naturally told him everything.

Within a few days, Qin Changyi's nature was exposed. He met a group of young masters in Jinling. Under the leadership of these people, he quickly got acquainted with the major gambling houses in Jinling and spent all day in the gambling houses.

He told Xu Xuan that he had found a business opportunity and planned to leave the Qin family to do business on his own. Xu Xuan believed it and sold some of the jewelry to him.As soon as Qin Changyi changed the money, he went to the gambling house to spend time.In less than two days, he squandered all the money, and owed a large sum of money to the gambling house.

He repeated his old tricks and cheated money from Xu Xuan, and in a blink of an eye he invested it in a gambling house.

But he was unlucky, and he didn't win for three consecutive days. Not only did he lose all his money, but his gambling debts also snowballed.

Coincidentally, today when Mother Chen was out shopping for vegetables, she bumped into him coming out of the casino, and the lie was self-defeating.

Xu Xuan cried a lot, was so sad that she passed out from anger.Chen Ma was in a hurry to hire a doctor, but Qin Changyi took advantage of this loophole and swept away their remaining money.

If it's just like this, it's fine, but while Xu Xuan was unconscious, he took her hand to draw a bet on a piece of paper, and handed it to the shopkeeper of the gambling shop.It turned out that he owed 5000 taels of silver, but now that the lie was discovered and he couldn't afford to pay it back, he sold Xu Xuan to a gambling house, and Tao Zhiyao died!
Chen Ma invited the doctor, and as soon as she saw the mess in the room, she immediately knew that Qin Changyi had run away.

But before she could go after her, the boss of the casino came to the door with someone and asked to pick up Xu Xuan.

Xu Xuan had just woken up, and after listening to the narration of the gambling shop owner, seeing in black and white that she was mortgaged to the boss, Qin Changyi also signed the signature and pledged, his eyes went dark, and he almost fell into a coma again.

Chen Ma begged the owner of the gambling shop, but Xu Xuan threatened to kill him. The man was also afraid of causing death, so he retreated and gave Xu Xuan the contract of sale, forcing her to write an IOU to repay the 5000 taels owed by Qin Changyi. silver.

Xu Xuan was short of money and couldn't bear the excitement. Seeing that the New Year was coming, she didn't even have any money for the New Year. Where could she find 5000 taels to pay back to the gambling house?Sitting miserably with Chen Ma in the middle of the night, thinking of being tricked by Qin Changyi before, I really hated it more and more. I couldn't help but think of the days when I was held in the palm of Mu Zhizhao, and I couldn't help but feel great grief and cry out.

The two were facing the predicament of starving to death. Mother Chen held Xu Xuan in her arms and remained silent for a while, then said hesitantly, "Miss, you have to take good care of yourself. When you are in good health, let's earn money."

"But, we don't have money, how can we buy rice?" Xu Xuan's eyes were clouded with tears.

Chen Ma gritted her teeth: "I'll figure out a way."

When she went out yesterday, she heard from a few homeless people in the north of the city that the Mu family was going to donate rice and meat in front of the business early this morning.She made up her mind, and she will go out later, try to grab some rice and meat back, and think of a way after this year is over.

…………

After Mu Yunge got up, he went to greet Mu Zhizhao and Xiao Shi as usual.Hearing from Xiao Shi that Mu Zhizhao had already gone to the commercial firm to give alms to the needy people, she couldn't help being moved.With Xiao's permission, she took Mu Jinran's little hand, and the siblings happily went to Splendid Firm.

At this time, the front of Splendid Trading Company was already crowded with people.The Mu family donated 1 taels of silver this time, and the rice and meat they bought piled up in two warehouses, and they began to be distributed at the hour of Chen. By noon, there was still more than half of the rice and meat in the warehouse. airtight.

The carriage of Mu's brother and sister went directly to the back door of the firm. When the two came out, they were surprised to see the grand scene in front of the firm.

"Sister, when Jinran grows up, she has to be like her father and be a promising person!" Mu Jinran held Mu Yunge's hand, and looked at Mu Zhizhao who was busy ahead with admiration.

Mu Yunge chuckled: "Is this Jinran's dream?"

Mu Jinran nodded, then shook his head again: "Jinran wants to be a promising person, but Jinran doesn't want to be in business like his father. Sister, Jinran wants to enter the officialdom and do something for Wei Wei like his father. The common people do good deeds. No, Jinran should not be as weak as Shuwen's father, Jinran will be a general, a general who can lead troops to fight!"

Mu Yunge pinched his little face: "Then you should work hard to become a great general."

"Yeah! I made an agreement with Shuwen and Ming Tong. In the future, we will go to the battlefield to make achievements together." Mu Jinran puffed up his cheeks and said in a serious manner: "I will practice martial arts with Shuwen, and we will lead the army to fight; He is just like a girl at ordinary times, he will be our military adviser... Ah, sister, look at that person, isn't she the nanny of the concubine's room before my father?"

Mu Jinran spoke excitedly, then stopped suddenly, and raised her finger to an old woman who was crowded in front of the alms-giving crowd.

The old woman was wearing a patched torn clothes, the clothes were still covered with mud, looking embarrassed and dirty.The people around her were unwilling to be next to her, and because of the bad luck of the new year, they stayed away from her.

Mu Yunge looked intently, could it be Chen Ma?

She frowned, turned her head and said to Pei Xin: "Go and find out what happened and why she came here."

If she remembered correctly, when Xu Xuan left, she took a lot of jewelry from the Mu family. How could she be so destitute in just a few days that she needed to grab alms from refugees and poor people?

Soon, Pei Xin came back and told her about Qin Changyi.

After hearing this, Mu Yunge gave a sneer smile, Xu Xuan was in a cocoon and deserved to be in this situation.

She looked at Mama Chen's hunched figure, and although she hated Xu Xuan very much, Mama Chen's care for Xu Xuan made her treat her differently.

Her eyes turned soft, and she sighed softly: "Go and tell Guanshi Xu to give her more rice meat. Also, don't let my father see her here."

Manager Xu obviously recognized Chen Ma, and when he handed her a large amount of rice meat, he didn't say a word, but quietly put a piece of silver in the rice.

Chen Ma was shocked and looked at Guanshi Xu in astonishment.

Manager Xu said in a low voice: "Miss, you can do it yourself."

Chen Ma held the big bag of rice and meat, touched the warm silver, her eyes were moist.She didn't dare to extravagantly ask for the Mu family's understanding, but at this moment she couldn't help but feel admiration for Mu Yunge's mind.Looking at myself again, a huge shame suddenly surged in my heart, and I couldn't even lift my head.She didn't dare to take another look at Mu Yunge and Mu Zhizhao, and quickly left with her things in her arms.

After Xu Xuan made such a fuss yesterday, she couldn't even get up now. Mother Chen carried her things to the kitchen, fearing that Xu Xuan would see her in this attire and change it as quickly as possible, so she went to comfort Xu Xuan.

Xu Xuan was half lying down with a pale face: "Mother Chen, where have you been? It's been so long."

"I went to the pawn shop." Chen Ma buried her head in a perfunctory way: "I still have two hairpins, which were not taken away by that bastard. I pawned some money and bought some rice and meat."

Xu Xuan said weakly: "Just buy some rice, meat is too expensive!"

"Miss, today is New Year's Eve!" Chen Ma felt very sad, and softly comforted her: "You are not in good health, you have some broth with you, and the food tastes better."

Xu Xuan didn't answer, closed her eyes and panted for a while, before asking again: "How much money did you pawn?"

She asked, and Chen Ma quickly brought the money that Manager Xu had given her in front of her.Xu Xuan opened her eyes and glanced at the silver. Suddenly, her eyes froze, she tried her best to do it, and stared at Chen Ma: "Chen Ma, you are lying! Your hairpin is worth 50 taels." Silver? Quickly tell me, where did the silver come from!"

When she got angry, she gasped into a heap, almost holding her breath.

"I, I..." Chen Ma was so anxious that she didn't dare to lie anymore and told her everything.

Holding on to this breath, Xu Xuan just finished listening, when she immediately leaned back.She smiled sadly, and blood flowed from the corner of her mouth.

Chen Ma panicked and hugged her: "Miss, don't be angry, the old slave did something wrong, and the old slave will never go again! Even if he starves to death, he won't go!"

The more she said this, the sadder Xu Xuan became.Chen Ma was all for her own good, she couldn't bear to blame, she just felt that there was no place for her in the world, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt that life was hopeless.Death occupied his mind, and something seemed to be pressing on his chest, so heavy that his chest was about to collapse.

She was breathing more and more urgently, and she was holding Mama Chen's hand even harder.

There are many things that I didn't understand until this moment.

Xu Xuan's pupils gradually dilated, and the blood from the corner of her mouth rolled down on her chest as if she couldn't stop it. She knew that her time had come, so she tried her best to say to Chen Ma: "Chen Ma, I don't blame you. If you want to blame, blame Xuan I was stupid, deceived, and used by others... Qin Changyi, that woman in the garden that day and Shen...Shen Jingyu were the ones who killed me. You...must...help Xuan Son...revenge!"
