I'll be a nanny for the lord

Chapter 1365 You can take a break
A big smile bloomed on Xia Ying's face, and she smiled very happily.

"Sister Long, do you remember how old our Qianjin Bookstore is?"

"Almost eight years." Mao Linglong whispered.

"Yeah, it's been eight years." Xia Ying sighed, "In the past eight years, the bookstore has opened all the way from Jiangbian Province to the capital, and now even has branches around the capital. In such a short period of time, we have already sold So many books have been released and so many poor girls have been rescued. Our achievements are impressive."

Mao Linglong nodded. "That's also because we have devoted ourselves to this matter and never slack off."

"However, it's not enough." Xia Ying shook her head, "Even after the Qianjin Bookstore in the capital gained a firm foothold, I always felt that the development was too smooth, and something seemed to be missing. And until now, I You know what's missing!"

"What's missing?" Mao Linglong asked.

"Opponent!" Xia Ying said.

"opponent?"

"That's right, an evenly matched opponent!"

Xia Ying nodded firmly, she held Mao Linglong's hand tightly. "Sister Long, we've been working hard to develop Qianjin Bookstore these years. Don't you feel tired? Haven't you ever felt lost? We've been burying our heads in this place all day long, thinking about publishing more books and absorbing more books. The poor girl came in, besides that? When you are finally free and sitting here alone in a daze, don't you feel very empty in your heart and don't know how to move forward?"

Mao Linglong bit her lip.

"It did."

"That's it." Xia Ying nodded, "Actually, I have always had it. And as the Qianjin Bookstore grows bigger and bigger, this feeling of confusion is getting more and more serious. I sometimes think, crossing the river by feeling the stones like this , I don’t know how long it will last? Is it because I want something if it continues like this?

Hearing what she said, Mao Linglong became confused.

"Yes! The progress of Qianjin Bookstore has always been very difficult. There have always been a small number of girls who can choose to study and work in the bookstore. More people still regard the bookstore as a scourge, and dare not take a step closer."

After all, Xia Ying is a deviant figure in the eyes of the common people.Today's women are envious of her achievements and jealous of her courage, but not everyone has Xia Ying's courage to stand up against this world.

More people are still tamed by the rules of this world, obediently squatting in the circle drawn for them by the society long ago, closing their eyes and listening, and living their lives in chaos.

Therefore, although Qianjin Bookstore is developing prosperously now, it is even more difficult to go further.

This is a difficult problem before them.

They have sat down and discussed countless times, and finally came to the conclusion that there is no solution.

This problem can only be handed over to time, and time will slowly change everyone's minds.

"But now, Gao's Qingya Bookstore is born!" Xia Ying immediately clapped her hands and laughed, "Sister Long, do you know what this means?"

"It means that the wives and young ladies of high-ranking families can't sit still, and they choose to stand up." Mao Linglong said.

"That's right!" Xia Ying nodded happily, "This means that our business in the capital has been fruitful over the years. Don't look at how the wives and ladies of the rich families mocked us in private for not being ignorant of the rules, but they subtly Under the circumstances, many of them are still tempted! The most obvious one is Gao Shi!"

Gao Shi has always wanted to be strong, and she must be the number one among women.

In the past, she did successfully marry the No. 1 Scholar and became the No. [-] noble in the capital.

However, with the destruction of the Zhai family, her glory was gone, so she could only quickly find the Cao family as a temporary support.But the Cao family is far behind the Zhai family after all, so she has actually been depressed all these years.

Has she ever regretted it all these years?Have you ever thought about it?

The answer is yes.

Although Gao shi showed a glamorous appearance on the outside, in fact, she always knew clearly what she wanted in her heart.Therefore, her life in Cao's family for more than ten years has not been satisfactory.That's why she took her daughter to join the prince, and the mother and daughter even helped the prince get rid of King Jin!
But they made such a great contribution, but the prince didn't value them just because of their female status. He almost wanted to follow the trend and kill Cao Suya directly!
At that time, Gao must have despaired of the path he chose at the beginning relying on men to climb up.

What's more, she also met Xia Ying, a woman who did not follow the usual path.

Although the two women took very different paths, and even fought from time to time, Xia Ying learned a lot of ways to survive in the capital from Gao.So Gao Shi is such a smart person, how could she not learn something from Xia Ying?
It's just that this woman is really good at hiding!
It wasn't until now that she saw the opportunity, attacked boldly, and gave Xia Ying a heavy punch.

"Once this Qingya Bookstore comes out, it will deal a huge blow to Qianjin Bookstore. At least, they will occupy half of Qianjin Bookstore's share in the capital. I have no doubts about this." Xia Yingdan laughed.

Mao Linglong nodded. "I discussed it with my prince, and he came to the same conclusion."

King Ning is now the No. 1 gossip bookstore in the capital, and his experience in running a gossip bookstore over the years is enough for him to understand the current situation at a glance.

That's why he was in a hurry to ask Mao Linglong to remind Xia Ying.

In the end, who would have thought...

Xia Ying was not in a hurry at all, on the contrary she was so happy?
But after hearing Xia Ying's explanation, Mao Linglong felt relieved now.Now infected by Xia Ying's good mood, she couldn't help but smile slightly.

"Sister Yingniang, you are right. Without an opponent, we can only bump around like headless chickens, which is really tiring. And once encountering setbacks and discouragement, it is also very difficult to cheer up and continue to fight Difficult. However, if I have an opponent, I feel full of fighting spirit!"

"Isn't it? After all, there are people around us who are benchmarking against us, and we can also learn from their gains and losses. Of course, the more important thing is..."

The two looked at each other, and big smiles appeared on both Xia Ying's and Mao Linglong's faces.

They also said in unison——

"We can finally take a break!"
