I'll be a nanny for the lord

Chapter 1374 Losing money for the first time

Look, the flamboyant and brutal Xia Ying in front of her is the real her!
She had pretended to be gentle and magnanimous for so long before, but she still can't pretend now!

Finally regaining the long-lost sense of familiarity, Gao felt much more at ease.

"Then, please wait and see Madam Ronghua!" She nodded slowly.

"Okay!" Xia Ying nodded.

It was just dawn outside, but the flames of war between the two men and women in the wing room were already on the verge of breaking out!
As for the next step, after the Empress and the Empress Dowager wake up, how they will meet the wives one by one, I don't need to list them one by one. Anyway, these procedures are similar to those of previous years, just a formality.

But while going through the motions, the Empress Dowager couldn't help but care about Fu Jieer's lifelong affairs, but she was still politely rejected by Fu Jieer.

In this way, after a round of scheduled procedures were completed, everyone went home, and Xia Ying quickly fell on the bed and fell asleep in the dark.

From the third day of the Lunar New Year, every household began to set up spring wine again. Xia Ying and her daughter-in-law ran around everywhere, but they were very busy.

And on top of these spring wines, Xia Ying clearly heard that these noble ladies had a hot topic of discussion, and that was - the poetry collection published by Qingya Bookstore a few years ago.

Those are all the excellent poems and essays accumulated by the Cao family, the Gao family, the Wang family and other noble families for many years. This time, Gao's skillful hand sorted them out, and then published them in a collection. Needless to say, the quality of each capital is good!
After the collection of poems was published, Gu Yuanlong specially bought a copy and took it home, and then he saw it late at night.For the next few days, Gu Yuanlong was still discussing some of the poems with his wife, and the couple clearly couldn't put them down.

Therefore, it was completely within Xia Ying's expectation that this collection of poems could have such a profound impact in a short period of time.

She lay flat as usual.

However, she wanted to lie flat, but someone refused to let her go.

Immediately, people from Pei's side branch seized this opportunity of Xia Ying's downfall and came over to mock her.

"Mrs. Ronghua, you are also a person who has published a lot of poetry and painting collections, and your Qianjin Bookstore has been famous in the capital for three or four years. Suddenly, a Qingya Bookstore was born, and all the limelight of your Qianjin Bookstore was taken away. You must be feeling bad after being robbed? By the way, I also heard that your Qianjin Bookstore actually released a new book a few years ago, and it was based on the story of our ancestors of the Pei family. However, you first met The Qin family was looking for trouble, and then Qingya Bookstore appeared... I heard that few of those books have been sold until now? What should I do, you won't lose money, right?"

Yin and Yang spoke to Xia Ying in a strange manner for a long time, and the last person added another sentence——

"Could it be, this is the first time your Qianjin Bookstore has lost money?"

This kind of story about fighting and killing with swords, lights and swords, how many women subconsciously chose to reject it after hearing the name at the beginning.

Therefore, since it was published and placed together, this "God of War in China" has indeed not sold well.Most of them were given away by Xia Ying for nothing!

So this person laughed at Xia Ying for losing money, which she did.

This is indeed the first time that Qianjin Bookstore has lost money.

Regarding this fact, Xia Ying did not intend to deny it.

"Yeah, we did lose money. So you say it's ridiculous. I've painted so many themes before, even if the sales were mediocre, I didn't lose money. But why did I lose money when it was my turn to draw the story of your Pei family? so?"

The Pei family couldn't laugh anymore.

"Are you slandering my ancestors?"

"No, I just want to say - do you people named Pei want to reflect on it? Obviously your ancestors have such glorious deeds, and the emperor has spent a lot of effort in rectifying the name of the Pei family in the past two years, but why did you beat yourself up? After the return of these descendants of the Pei family, none of the glorious demeanor of the Pei family has been seen by others. Even a person like me who has published many best-selling books cannot carry the story of your Pei family? I think this should be yours. The ancestors are expressing dissatisfaction with you useless descendants."

Xia Ying said slowly.

At the end, she imitated this person and added one more sentence——

"It should be because the old man doesn't want you to take advantage of their reputation for no reason!"

puff!
Someone nearby couldn't help laughing.

The Pei family was scolded red-faced.

"You, you are talking nonsense!"

"I'm talking nonsense? Well, tell me, have you done anything impressive since you came back? Did you stay in the capital or go to the border? Did you do anything!"

Xia Ying's series of questions left the other party speechless.

They really have nothing to show, nothing!

People in the capital are still eating the food left by their ancestors, and the same goes for those who have gone to the border!
Until now, apart from bragging about the brilliance of their ancestors again and again, they have nothing else to do.

So many men from the Pei family have struggled at the border for so long, and their achievements are not as impressive as Xia Ying's second son alone!

Of course, Xia Ying is qualified to criticize them condescendingly.

They really couldn't say anything to refute.

It's even impossible to take advantage of Xia Ying's downfall to taunt her!

Xia Ying will never spoil these people!
In the end, instead of venting their anger, they only added a laughing stock to themselves.

The Pei family suffered from Xia Ying again, they didn't dare to provoke any more, so they quickly lowered their heads and slipped away quietly.

This matter was seen by a group of people from the Gao family not far away, and the young lady of the Wang family immediately sneered.

"The crow stands on the pig, don't laugh at anyone who is darker." She said with contempt.

Gao shi just lowered her head to drink, she did not participate in this discussion.

But the others around me couldn't help it.

"Madam Cao, why don't you say a few words? I remember that on the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, at the gate of the palace, didn't you still argue with Madam Ronghua?"

"I've already said what I had to say at the time, and of course I have nothing to say now. At the moment, we should publish a few more books and use our real skills to prove that we are better than Qianjin Bookstore. This is the last word." Gao said slowly road.

She doesn't bother to use such childish methods as arguing and fighting with Xia Ying.

Now, she wants to convince Xia Ying on the right way, and make everyone in the capital open their eyes wide to see how she trampled Xia Ying under her feet!
When the other people at the table heard the words, they all nodded.

"I think she has exhausted her talents, and now this new book can explain the problem very well. From now on, it should be the world of our Qingya Bookstore!"

"Before we gave way to her and were unwilling to compete with her for the limelight. But now that we have stood up, if she still wants to be as good as before, then she has made a mistake!"

"That's natural!"

……

A group of people were full of confidence, as if Xia Ying was already defeated by them.
