Black-bellied Xianggong: Cute wife is not easy to mess with

Chapter 108 The Two Conspire
Is there something wrong with this person's brain?Mu Qingwan glanced at her, and said coldly: "Fourth sister has a really bad memory. My father paid all the money to open the store. I take [-]% of the shares. Isn't that too much?!"

Mu Qinglian was tongue-tied, and strangled the handkerchief to death.

After Mu Changguang and Shi Tianci finished talking, he motioned him to sit opposite Mu Qingwan and Mu Qinglian, and said, "Tianci told me that he has set up a shop in Dishui Lane. It’s complete, and we only need to make a new signboard at that time.”

Mu Qingwan had already visited that place in person and knew everything, so she didn't care about it. She just asked, "Is the shop rented or bought? How much is the price?"

Mu Changguang looked at Shi Tianci and motioned for him to speak for himself, Shi Tianci stood up, cupped his hands at Mu Qingwan and Mu Qinglian, and said, "Back to the third and fourth girls, the shop is rented, 40 per month. Two silvers, plus a three-month deposit, will be settled once a year."

40 taels of silver per month? !Have to close once a year? !For such a broken place as Dripping Lane, what's the difference between this price and a robbery? !Mu Qingwan was so angry that she immediately asked Mu Changguang, "Father, have you ever visited that store in person?"

But Mu Changguang waved his hand and said, "It's enough for your three uncles and four uncles to visit. I'm so busy every day, so I don't have time to care about this."

No wonder Shi Tianci coaxed it. It turned out that it was Shi Tianci who carried Mu Lao San and Mu Lao Si out. Mu Qingwan was furious in her heart, but she tried her best to maintain her superficial calm. Uncle has seen it, there must be no problem."

Mu Changguang nodded, got up and said: "That's it, Tianci went to get the money from the account, I'm going out, today Bai Caiban asked me to go to the restaurant for breakfast, and he is waiting for me."

Shi Tianci got up quickly and stopped after seeing him at the door.

Mu Qingwan looked at Shi Tianci's back and thought carefully. He opened his mouth like a lion, asking Mu Changguang for 600 taels of silver a year. Is it to make a fortune out of it, or to please Aunt Huang?There are so many shops to rent in Dripping Lane, much better than Tongru Bookstore, but he just chose it. From this point of view, his motivation and purpose may be mostly the latter...

Just as she was thinking, she suddenly saw Shi Tianci walking towards her, she quickly restrained her thoughts and showed a kind smile.Shi Tianci walked in front of her, turned his eyes around her first, and then bowed his hands and said, "Just now the old man asked me to go to the account to get the money..."

She almost forgot that she is the head of the household now, and she gets the money from the account, that is, she comes to her to get the money. He said to Shi Tianci: "Brother Shi, 600 taels of silver is not a small amount, and I can't get it out of the account at once, can you allow me a few days?"

"This……"

Shi Tianci frowned slightly, and Mu Qinglian got out immediately, staring at Mu Qingwan with doubts all over her face: "The family can't even get 600 taels? How does the third sister manage the house?"

She really doubted it, the Mu family took out 600 taels of silver, it was indeed just a matter of minutes, but she just didn't want to take it out right away, so what could she do with her?Mu Qingwan snorted secretly, and said unhappily: "My father told me face to face, can I still renege on the debt? There is not so much money in the account for now, and I can't change it. How about fourth sister taking your gold, jade and jewelry , take it out first and send it to cousin Shi?"

Mu Qinglian's expression immediately became unnatural, and he hesitated and said: "They are all real things, and it will take time to sell them, so why not wait for you..."

"That's right. It takes time to sell gold, jade and jewelry. Of course, it will take time for me to raise money. The fourth sister really doesn't understand me..." Mu Qingwan looked like she didn't care about the previous suspicions, and pulled her away, and left. Not far away, Shi Tianci asked Mu Qinglian in a voice that he could hear: "Fourth sister, what do you think of my attire? My cousin finally came back, and I will go to his house for a banquet tomorrow. How about just wearing this?"

Mu Qingwan tilted her head slightly, and from the corner of her eye, she happened to see Shi Tianci, and saw that he froze as the words fell to the ground, and immediately, the gaze fixed on her also became gloomy.

Sure enough, it's because I've been busy with opening a store recently, have you forgotten this?From this point of view, her reminder today is still very timely.Mu Qingwan smiled secretly, and left after hearing Mu Qinglian's perfunctory words.

Mu Qinglian watched her walk away, and walked towards the yard side by side with Shi Tianci, said in a low voice but hastily: "I've been so busy these days that I forgot to tell you about the Kang family. His family's Kang Bohui, and my third sister They were childhood sweethearts, but they broke up because of my third sister's engagement with Yu's family, but not long ago, his family handed over Geng Tie, and my uncle said, I will give you an answer after receiving the nobleman..."

Are you busy these days?Is it because you got the three big boxes of gold, jade and jewelry, so you don't care about other things?Shi Tianci was very dissatisfied in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it, he just asked her: "You have money now, can someone come to propose marriage?"

Why did you say this suddenly?Mu Qinglian blushed and shook her head.

Shi Tianci laughed softly: "It can be seen that everyone feels that those things will not fall into your hands in the end, and your third sister is not married yet, and the three big boxes of gold, jade and jewelry are just right to add makeup to her."

"You're talking nonsense!" Mu Qinglian blushed, "My eldest aunt is not that kind of person."

Shi Tianci smiled again, but remained silent.

Because of his silence, Mu Qinglian panicked a little, and said impatiently: "Then what do you think I should do? My aunt is always more reliable than my third and fourth uncles, right? If those things fall into their hands, I'm afraid it will Not even the scum is left. There is also Aunt Luo. Although she is my aunt, she wants to have a son. But I hope that when I share dividends, I can give her some benefits."

"No, no, you misunderstood me." Shi Tianci shook his head and said, "I'm not saying that your aunt is unreliable, but that those who want to propose marriage don't know that she is reliable."

This sounded a bit of a mouthful, Mu Qinglian was stunned for a while before she felt sorry and said anxiously: "You mean, others think that my aunt will take my dowry, so they dare not come to propose marriage easily?"

Shi Tianci nodded heavily.

"Then what should I do?" Marrying a good family and showing off in front of Mu Qingwan is Mu Qinglian's greatest wish in her life, so she is very anxious.

Shi Tianci looked at her and smiled, and said: "Unless your third sister gets married first, they will be relieved to see that she married without your dowry."

Mu Qinglian is not stupid, after thinking about it for a while, she understood his thoughts, and said with a sneer, "Are you thinking of yourself? But don't worry, even if I don't worry about my dowry, I don't want to look at me The third sister married into the Kang family." The words that talked about her behind the little comb and the little mirror that day were like knives stuck in her chest, and even now, as long as I think about it, I will feel pain and pain.She must not allow Mu Qingwan to marry a husband who is likely to be on the gold list, then she will never have a bright future in front of her.

Shi Tianci was talked about, but he didn't look embarrassed at all. Instead, he laughed: "We have the same goal, so it's easy to handle. Don't worry, I won't let you work in vain. Wait for your third sister to give it to you." I'll give you ten taels of money for renting the store."

Don't use the rent money to rent the shop, but give her ten taels first?Mu Qinglian glanced at him a few times before laughing, "You really have the ability."

Shi Tianci smiled without saying a word, but took out a small box from his arms and handed it to her.Mu Qinglian took it in doubt, opened it, and found a white jade hairpin inside, the whole body was white, warm and smooth, and a lifelike white lotus was carved on the head of the hairpin.This is a good thing!Mu Qinglian was so pleasantly surprised that she even forgot to be reserved: "This is for me?"

Shi Tianci was very satisfied with her reaction. Sure enough, even with three boxes of gold, jade and jewelry, money is not too much. He nodded and said with a smile: "I said a long time ago, as long as you help me, I will definitely help you." I won't treat you badly."

Compared with this hairpin, Mu Qinglian was even more surprised that Shi Tianci could afford such an expensive thing in a short time. , really underestimated him...

She stroked the white jade hairpin, looked at Shi Tianci again and again, Shi Tianci let her look at him, and suddenly smiled at her, Mu Qinglian realized that her behavior was too aggressive, blushed, turned and ran away .

I haven't talked about the business yet, why run away!This was in the courtyard of Mu's house, Shi Tianci didn't dare to chase after him, so he had to lower his voice and shout: "Don't go, I still have something to say!"

Mu Qinglian stopped, but her face was still hot, so she didn't turn around, but turned her back to him.

Shi Tianci walked over, stood beside her, and asked in a low voice: "Your third sister and the others, are you really going to the Kang family for a banquet tomorrow?"

Mu Qinglian nodded.

"Then try your best and follow her tomorrow..." Shi Tianci leaned forward towards her and lowered his voice.

Mu Qinglian listened and was taken aback: "You actually asked me to—"

"Ancestor, what's your name!" Shi Tianci quickly stopped her, "What harm does my idea do to you? If it succeeds, you will immediately slap your third sister in the face. If it doesn't, you have nothing to lose , no one knows anyway—or else, if it doesn’t work out, I’ll give you two sets of Zhou Ji’s clothes as compensation.”

Zhou Ji's clothes?two sets?That was something that could not be taken down without 20 taels of silver. Mu Qinglian immediately fell silent. However, Shi Tianci was right. If this matter succeeds, it will not only slap Mu Qingwan in the face, but also her lifelong goal. That's right.So, this matter is really worth her going all out...

Seeing that she had no objection, Shi Tianci walked away.
