Rather be a concubine

Chapter 109
After entering Xingjian Residence, I saw Zhuo Qin standing in the corner, trimming the beautifully blooming peonies.As soon as Zhuo Qin saw the sisters who came in, a kind smile appeared on her delicate face.Although Zhuo Qin is over [-] years old now, she has been staying by Cheng's side and does not want to be a lady in charge.

Because Bo Yuqiao often came to this healthy residence, she could be said to be familiar with it, so she smiled at Zhuo Qin.

"Aunt Zhuoqin, is your aunt here?"

Hearing Bo Yuqiao's question, Zhuo Qin's smile grew wider, and first she blessed the girls in a polite manner, after all, etiquette is indispensable.Others are not as kind as sister Qiao, if she is too rude, I am afraid that the master will lose face.

"Returning to Miss Qiao, the master already knew the old lady's thoughts, so since three days ago, he began to think carefully, and wanted to select a few excellent shops and hand them over to several ladies. Now it has almost been decided. Let the servants bring a few young ladies into the study."

Hearing this, the three other sisters also nodded together, and followed Zhuo Qin to the study together.Along the way, Bo Yuqiao found that the peonies of Xingjianju really bloomed very well. The flowers were about the size of a silver plate, and they were extremely gorgeous. Along the way, her eyes were dazzled by the bright purples and reds.

When they arrived at the door of the study, Zhuo Qin went inside to make an announcement. Not long after, an extremely gentle voice came from inside the study.

"Come in."

Hearing Cheng's voice, several sisters entered together.At this moment, Mrs. Cheng sat on the chair of the Eight Immortals and began to look at the accounts.Now seven years have passed, and the best years of the Cheng family have been handed over to the Bo family.Because she always abides by the rules and doesn't like to spend extravagantly, there is a hint of oldness on her face now.

Seeing the four people coming in, Cheng breathed a sigh of relief. After all, if you want to choose four shops and give them to the four sisters to take care of, you must choose a suitable one, and you should have some small problems , to practice for a few sisters, so as to satisfy the old lady's wishes.Originally Cheng was still a little hesitant, but now that the four of them have arrived, it is enough to give them the shop that was originally planned.

"Zhuo Qin, hurry up and show some tea to the ladies."

Zhuo Qin heard Cheng Shi's order, and dared not neglect her, and immediately walked out of the study to make tea for the young ladies.

Cheng looked up at Bo Yurong, after all, among the four ladies, Bo Yurong was the oldest and had the most distinguished status.Not to mention being the eldest daughter of the Bo family, her husband's family, the Yasukuni Mansion, is also an extremely powerful family of nobles.Now Yuan Ji is just a general, he has won the favor of Emperor Chongwen, and now he is the editor of the Imperial Academy, he is really young and promising.

"Right now, my aunt has selected four shops, one is called Hua Xiangrong, it sells cosmetics, and the location is very good. The second one is called Zhuoyuxuan, and it's not a big restaurant. And the third one is called Zhuoyuxuan. It’s Yunlai’s pawn shop, and the fourth one is food is the sky, and it’s a grain store. The four of you sisters should have a discussion and see who chooses which shop.”

With that said, Cheng took out a piece of rice paper, on which were densely packed with small regular script with hairpin flowers.

"It records the location of the shop and the income of this year, just take a look."

Hearing this, Bo Yuqiao and the others immediately took the rice paper in silence, and watched it together.These four shops are related to their dowry in the future, so naturally they must not be taken lightly, they must keep their eyes open now, otherwise they will regret not falling in a few days.

Bo Yuqiao doesn't want to fight for it right now, after all, the locations of these shops look very good, but the money they receive every month is not much, so there must be some dirty things in it.

"Sister Rong, you are going to marry into Yuan's family right now, so let's pick someone you like first."

Among the little ladies in Bo's residence, the only one who caught Bo Yuqiao's attention was Bo Yurong. Even if this little lady had a very vicious mother, it had nothing to do with Bo Yurong.She, Bo Yuqiao, is not that kind of person who doesn't know right from wrong.

Hearing this, Bo Yuhe who was sitting beside him showed a trace of concern in his eyes. Bo Yuhe took a good look at the grain store. After all, food is the paramount necessity of the people. No matter when, the business of the grain store will definitely not cause too much trouble .But now that Bo Yuqiao is talking like this, it would be a pity if Bo Yurong chose the grain store.

Bo Yurong smiled softly at this moment and said.

"As the eldest sister, how can I make my younger sisters humble? You should be the first to choose."

Every word and deed of Bo Yurong reveals the demeanor of a great family. Originally, she didn't care about these petty gains. After all, the Feng family was also from a great family, so her dowry would naturally be left to the eldest daughter, so Bo Yurong is really a good person. The little lady who is short of money.

Hearing this, Bo Yuqiao didn't speak anymore, but Bo Yuqiong's eyes lit up instantly, and she spoke.

"Then Qiong'er is not welcome, I want that food to be heaven!"

Seeing that Shi Weitian was chosen by Bo Yuqiong, Bo Yuhe was really annoyed, his snow-white face was a little blue at the moment, and his phoenix eyes stared at Bo Yuqiong undisguisedly. Out of her mind.

"Since Sister Qiong has chosen food as the sky, I will take that Yunlai pawn shop."

Bo Yuhe immediately spoke up, she didn't grab the food for the sky, this Yunlai pawn shop couldn't be taken over by that little woman raised by Bo Yuqiao.The business of the pawn shop is also very good. It seems that the most profitable of these four shops is not too bad.

Right now, there is only a makeup shop and a tavern left.Bo Yurong raised her eyes slightly at this moment, and said.

"Sister Qiao should choose first!"

Since Bo Yurong has already said so, Bo Yuqiao doesn't want to refuse, she is looking forward to the tavern with the cheapest profit.Although Zhuoyuxuan can hardly make ends meet at the moment, but its location is good, it is on the same street as Xinglin Pavilion, if Bo Yuqiao wants to visit her adoptive father in the future, it will be much more convenient.

"Since this is the case, my sister will not be polite, I want to Zhuo Yuxuan."

After saying that, Bo Yuqiao smiled slightly at Bo Yurong, narrowing her almond eyes, looking so pretty.

Seeing Bo Yuqiao's appearance like this, Bo Yurong also sighed in his heart. The two of them are biological sisters, but her mother hates sister Qiao very much and doesn't want her to get close to her. It's really a pity.

"The last Hua Xiangrong will belong to me."

After the four selected a shop, they informed Cheng.

When Mrs. Cheng heard that Bo Yuqiao chose Zhuo Yuxuan, she was a little surprised, after all Zhuo Yuxuan didn't look very good, and with Miss Qiao's intelligence, she didn't know why she chose this shop.But even though he was puzzled, Cheng was now a woman in her thirties, not an ignorant little lady, so naturally she didn't reveal her thoughts at all.

"Okay, since you have already selected the shop, I will send someone to inform you today. It is already the end of May, and after three days, it will be June. These three days will be your last free time. It's better to prepare earlier. If the profit of the shop in your hands doubles within a month, then the house deed and land deed of this shop will be handed over to you personally."

Hearing this, the eyes of the four young ladies showed a hint of eagerness. After all, the four of them have never been in charge, so they are naturally a little curious now.

After Bo Yuqiao returned from living on her own, she was in a very good mood.Although the Zhuoyuxuan was already struggling to make ends meet, Bo Yuqiao didn't mind. After all, the location of Zhuoyuxuan was very good. On the main street in the middle of the capital, it would be difficult to find a cook with good skills even if the business was not good.

It would be embarrassing for the girls next to her, but this Jade Zhuoxuan really suits Bo Yuqiao's wishes.My aunt had left a family recipe before, but now it can come in handy.Although, as a young lady, she couldn't linger on the stove every day, but at least she could make some special sauces, which made the dishes more delicious.

But Bo Yuqiao naturally didn't want to open an ordinary tavern, that would be nothing special, and it would be really difficult to double the profit within a month.

But the restaurant that Bo Yuqiao wants to open is not an ordinary restaurant.A few days ago, Xinglin Pavilion found new medicinal materials from overseas. Its color is like cinnabar, the size of a thumb, and it tastes spicy. It is easy to generate heat and relieve moisture.But even the adoptive father has never seen that thing, and he is not well-known.After Bo Yuqiao was lucky enough to see the medicinal material, she couldn't laugh or cry immediately.Because the medicinal material is not something else, but Chaotian pepper.

At present, the Daqian Dynasty does not have such a good thing as chili peppers. For Bo Yuqiao, a Sichuan girl, it is really intolerable.After seeing Chaotianjiao that day, Bo Yuqiao was very happy immediately, and had an idea of ​​opening a Sichuan restaurant in her heart, but she never got the chance.

Thinking of the delicious taste of chili, Bo Yuqiao involuntarily secreted body fluid.Although she didn't take over Zhuo Yuxuan right now, Chaotianjiao had to be well prepared, if it wasn't enough, it would be a bit embarrassing.

Seeing that it was still early, Bo Yuqiao didn't want to have lunch, so she walked straight out of the master bedroom.Su Mo, who was standing in the courtyard, saw Bo Yuqiao coming out, and asked with some doubts on his face.

"Why don't you go to rest, Miss? Could it be that you are hungry?"

Hearing Su Mo's question, Bo Yuqiao smiled and shook her head.

"That's not the case. I'm going to take over Zhuo Yuxuan in three days. Now let's go and see what is missing. We should hurry up and get everything ready. Don't waste time."

Hearing this, Su Mo knew that Bo Yuqiao was looking for another reason to leave the house.After all, in order to go shopping outside the mansion, the young lady used to go to the Xinglin Pavilion under the guise of looking for medicinal materials for the old lady, and now Su Mo is no stranger to it.

"Su Mo Tsing Yi followed me out of the house, Huang Ying Cui Fu took a good look at our Qiongzhi Pavilion, if anyone came looking for me, they would say that Miss Ben went out to look at the shop."
