Chapter 322: Thousands of clues

 Mrs. Shangguan realized the seriousness of the situation, her face became solemn, she turned to Mother Yang and said: "Let someone go and see if the prime minister has come back? If he doesn't come back, send someone to look for him."

Mother Yang hurried out.

As Mrs. Shangguan expected, shopkeeper Liu Er from the east of the city came in and still wanted to return the goods.

Mrs. Cui said to Mrs. Shangguan: "Mom, this is so abnormal. Why do so many people suddenly come to return goods? There must be someone behind the scenes. Let's quickly ask Manager Qian to check and see where the problem lies. ?”

Mrs. Shangguan was so panicked that she had no idea. After listening to Mrs. Cui's words, she turned to the servant and said: "Call the money manager to come in."

The mother-in-law hurriedly bent her knees and walked quickly to the front yard.

Wang Peiyun looked at the mother-in-law who was leaving in a hurry. Her already uneasy heart became even more frightened, and she began to feel in a trance. She wanted to tell her what happened today, but she was afraid that she would be punished by her grandmother if she told her.

Mrs. Cui saw her daughter in a daze and said, "Yun'er."

 “Sister Yun?”

"Sister Yun, what are you thinking about?" Mrs. Cui raised her hand and took Wang Peiyun's hand.

Wang Peiyun came back to his senses and said, "I'm sorry, I was distracted just now. Why did I call Yun'er?"

Mrs. Cui looked at Wang Peiyun and said worriedly: "Yun'er, your face looks ugly. Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"

Wang Peiyun glanced at Mrs. Shangguan in panic, shook his head and denied, "No, Yun'er doesn't feel uncomfortable at all."

Mrs. Cui looked at her uneasy daughter and said, "Something happened at home. You can't help by sitting here. Go back to your yard!"

Mrs. Cui's words were exactly what Wang Peiyun wanted. Wang Peiyun quickly bowed and said, "Okay."

Wang Peiyun was just about to say goodbye to Shangguan's old lady, but saw Wang Xiang step into the room with a sullen face.

 Everyone in the room stood up to greet him.

 Wang Xiang walked to sit down next to Mrs. Shangguan and asked, "What happened?"

 The Prime Minister sat down and began to ask questions.

The Prime Minister went back to the government office and as soon as he stepped into the courtyard, the woman in the backyard came to look for him in a panic, saying that something serious had happened and asked him to come to the backyard immediately.

Wang Peiyun did not dare to interrupt the Prime Minister's question, so he had to sit down again.

Mrs. Shangguan briefly told the Prime Minister about the returns from various shops.

At this time, Steward Qian entered the room and bowed to the Prime Minister and Mrs. Shangguan who were sitting at the top.

 Then he asked: "Old madam, what's the matter with Xun Xiao?"

Mrs. Shangguan ordered: "Manager Qian, hurry up and send someone to find out what happened at the Silver Building."

 Chief Qian must be ordered to stand down.

Shopkeeper Liu Er took a step forward and said, "Master, Madam, the shop is still waiting for a reply. The customer's patience is limited. If the customer doesn't get a response for a long time, I'm afraid there will be trouble."

Mrs. Shangguan looked at the Prime Minister and asked, "Mr. Prime Minister, what do you think?"

Wang Xiang held his chin and thought for a while, then looked up at the second shopkeepers in the room and said: "You go back first and arrange for people to return the goods. The people who handle the returns should be slower and check carefully to see if the goods are damaged, and waste time. longer.

  It was almost dark when it was time to apply, and then I told the guest that it was dark today and the light was not good, so I could not continue to process the return. If you wanted to return, you would have to come back tomorrow. Find a way to put off today and give yourself time to find out the truth. "

After hearing what the Prime Minister said, the second shopkeepers felt reassured and immediately bowed to say goodbye.

Wang Xiang was afraid that the second shopkeepers would not understand what he meant, so he warned him bluntly: "Remember, you must have a good attitude. When you talk to people, your tone of voice must be soft and slow. Remember, don't shout or say harsh words to others." , using foul language.

 Let people prepare some fruit refreshments for those who return goods. do you understand?"

The shopkeepers have been dealing with customers all year round and pondering the psychology of customers all day long. When Wang Xiang spoke his words, they understood what Wang Xiang meant.

 “Don’t worry, Mr. Xiang, I understand.”

The Prime Minister nodded, "Go ahead and remember to endure the humiliation and bear the burden. A man must be able to bend and stretch."

 The second shopkeepers bowed their hands and said, "Young ones, I would like to listen to the instructions of the Prime Minister." They went back to their shops to get busy.

After the shopkeepers left, Wang Xiang asked: "Why did this happen suddenly?"

Mrs. Shangguan raised her hand to her forehead and sighed heavily: "I don't know, but when several shopkeepers came over, I was looking at the head and face that Sister Yun had brought back with my family and Sister Yun..."

When Shangguan said this, he suddenly thought of something and turned to look at Wang Peiyun. How could it be such a coincidence? Sister Yun went to the bank to return the goods, could it be...

Mrs. Cui's heart suddenly sank when she saw Mrs. Shangguan looking at Wang Peiyun.

He stuttered and asked: "Mother...this is..."

Mrs. Shangguan ignored Mrs. Cui's question and asked directly: "Sister Yun, tell grandma honestly, what did you do in the shop today?"

Mrs. Shangguan’s eyes fell on Wang Peiyun. Wang Peiyun felt like lightning chasing after her in a thunderstorm, and her hands were shaking with nervousness.

Mrs. Cui saw her daughter's trembling look and knew that today's incident must have something to do with her daughter.

In front of her father-in-law and mother-in-law, whose fallen leaves can recognize autumn, Sister Yun can only be forgiven by confessing.

Mrs. Cui said warmly: "Yun'er, grandma is asking you something. Please tell your grandpa and grandma exactly what happened to you today."

Wang Peiyun was trembling with fear and looked at Mrs. Cui for help: "Aniang!"

Mrs. Cui gave Wang Peiyun an encouraging look, "Don't panic, just tell the truth about what you experienced."

Wang Peiyun secretly glanced at Wang Xiang and saw that Wang Xiang was looking at her, so she quickly lowered her head.

Seeing that Wang Peiyun had not spoken for a long time, Mrs. Shangguan was as anxious as a cat scratching her head, so she urged: "What happened? Are you talking?"

Wang Peiyun was about to speak, but Mrs. Shangguan urged her to speak. The words that came to her lips were frightened away, and she lowered her head and began to cry.

The Prime Minister looked at Wang Peiyun, sighed slightly, and asked, "Where is Qingfang? Are you going out with Sister Yun today?"

Wang Peiyun's maid Qingfang hurriedly stood up, bent her knees and said, "Returning to the Prime Minister, this servant is going out with the young lady today."

Wang Xiang said: "Tell me, who did Sister Yun meet today? What did she say? Please tell me exactly what she said."

Qingfang bent her knees and responded: "Yes, Miss, I will take a break today and take my slave to Baoqing Silver Building on Baizhang Road to get noodles..."

Qingfang has a very strong retelling ability. She almost retells the dialogue between Peiyun He, Li Tao and Gu Huayu according to the original words.

Mrs. Shangguan was very angry when she heard this, and said to Wang Peiyun: "You girl, you always turn my words into deaf ears.

  How did I tell you before? I told you not to provoke Na Nizi before your wedding. Why can't you listen?

That Nizi was born without her parents and lacked education. Tell me, you usually look like a pretty spirited person, why can't you figure it out?

If you argue with a poorly educated person, what good can you do? It really **** me off. "

The Prime Minister looked at Wang Peiyun, turned around and comforted Mrs. Shangguan, "You need to teach your child slowly, and don't be impatient."

Mrs. Shangguan patted her chest, took the tea handed over by Wang Xiang, lowered her head and took a few sips to suppress the anger in her heart.

Then he said: "It is said that a person gains wisdom after being exposed to a pit. You can do the math for yourself. How many times have you fallen into the hands of Na Nizi?

 Why don’t you have a long memory? You have suffered over and over again, but you don't know how to avoid her, and you take the initiative to provoke her. Are you stupid? "

Wang Peiyun lowered his head, and the old lady who was appointed Shangguan was gone. She only raised her hands to wipe her tears from time to time.

The old lady Shangguan got angrier as she scolded her. Wang Xiang saw that her fingers were trembling with excitement and advised her, "Drink some tea to calm down."

 Mrs. Shangguan waved her hand to express that she did not want to drink tea anymore, but she stopped and did not continue to scold Wang Peiyun. She leaned back and took a deep breath to calm down her emotions.

Wang Xiang said to Wang Peiyun: "Don't cry. Go back and copy the women's instructions ten times. Don't step out of Xiaoxiang Garden before the wedding."

Wang Peiyun leaned forward and said, "Thank you, grandpa. Yun'er will follow your grandfather's teachings."

 Wang Xiang waved his hand, "Please step back."

Wang Peiyun went to the Prime Minister, and Mrs. Shangguan said goodbye and left with Jingfang. At the door, she met the manager Qian who came into the house.

When Manager Qian saw Wang Peiyun coming out, he stepped aside and said, "Miss Third."

Wang Peiyun nodded towards Manager Qian and walked away.

Manager Qian waited for Wang Peiyun and the maid behind her to come out of the door before stepping into the house.

When Wang Xiang saw Manager Qian coming in, he said first, "No need to pay homage, tell me, what's going on?"

 Manager Qian leaned forward and said: "The cause of the matter was the quarrel between the third lady and Princess Yanran.

The third lady ridiculed Princess Yanran because she was poor and couldn't afford the honor.

Princess Yanran came out of Baoqing Silver House and went directly to Fulong Silver House. In a fit of anger, she bought more than 2,000 pieces of jewelry from Fulong Silver House.

 At the time of the incident, there were many customers at Baoqing Silver House and Fulong Silver House.

The incident immediately went viral, spreading rapidly from one to ten, and from one to another.

Later, it was said that the Shaodong family of Baoqing Silver Tower was domineering and arrogant.

   Why Baoqing Silver Tower does not keep its word, raises the price on the ground, and makes all kinds of excuses.

 One of the most widely circulated words is Miss San's statement that Baoqing Silver Tower is the most popular in the whole capital, and no one dares to call it the first.

These words offended other Yinlou and caused public outrage.

Su Nan Silver House and Han Cai Yin House were the first to announce that as long as those who return goods at Baoqing Silver House can go to their shop with the return receipt and choose any jewelry worth ten taels of silver.

Now Fulong Yinlou, Yuanyitang Yinlou, Yujin Yinlou, and Yumanlou Yinlou are all saying the same thing. "

Mrs. Cui's face turned pale, she clenched the handkerchief tightly, and looked at the Prime Minister and Mrs. Shangguan uneasily.

 I hope that the king can come up with a solution that has both ends, otherwise, my daughter’s reputation will be ruined.

Mrs. Shangguan turned to look at Mrs. Cui and said, "Did you see it? How many times have I told you? When you go out, you must always remember your identity and be careful in your words and deeds. How about you guys giving me the time to ramble? How about this? You know how powerful it is, right?”

Mrs. Cui leaned forward and said, "My mother taught you rightly. Please think of something to do. Otherwise, Yun'er's reputation will be ruined."

Mrs. Shangguan glanced at Mrs. Cui, "I usually discipline Yun'er more harshly, but you feel heartbroken. What happened now? Do you know that reputation is important?"

Mrs. Cui lowered her head and did not dare to say a word.

The Prime Minister said, "Okay, it's useless to talk about this now."

Mrs. Shangguan said: "It's useless but you still need to let them know how powerful it is, otherwise, they will never have a long memory.

Go and make it clear to Sister Yun that she has caused so much trouble just because she is willful and unobtrusive. "

 Old Madam Shangguan stared at Madam Cui and gave orders.

Mrs. Cui bowed and said, "Yes, my wife will come over right away."

After Mrs. Cui left with the maid and the mother-in-law, Mrs. Shangguan glanced at Aunt Yang, who took the maid and the mother-in-law out of the house knowingly.

After the maid and mother-in-law had retreated, Mrs. Shangguan asked, "Master, look, this matter has caused a storm in the city and everyone knows about it. How can we calm down this matter?"

The Prime Minister leaned back in his chair, sighed heavily, and said, "In a short period of time, this matter can be spread all over the city. How many hands are behind it?"

Mrs. Shangguan looked at the Prime Minister nervously, "What does the Prime Minister mean..."

The Prime Minister sighed heavily, and after a moment he said: "The backyard and the front hall, the front hall and the court hall are inextricably linked.

 When you get to a position like ours, there are thousands of pairs of eyes staring at you behind you...

 Sister Yun’s accident was both accidental and inevitable. Teach what needs to be taught well, as long as you know it well. "

Mrs. Shangguan nodded, "Yes, I understand. Who will take action on this matter? King Qin or King Qi? What is their purpose?"

The king pressed his temples and said: "Both the King of Qin and the King of Qi are possible. The purpose? It's just to pull me down from the position. Remove the left and right arms of the wise king, break the wings of the wise king. Let them ascend to the throne. Clear the way.”

Mrs. Shangguan said quietly: "I am in bad health and failed to educate my children and grandchildren well, which is holding back the prime minister."

Prime Minister Wang comforted him and said, "Don't blame yourself, you have done a good enough job. You don't have to worry about this matter. Let me handle it."

Yun'er, you still need to put some thought into it. With her current temperament, even if she marries into Prince Xian's palace, she will cause trouble for Prince Xian.

You must let her understand that a truly powerful person is not just a quick talker.

The fast tongue is just the behavior of the reckless husband. A truly powerful person is one who knows how to restrain himself. "

 Mrs. Shangguan nodded, "I understand. I'm worried that this will bring trouble to the prime minister."

“Trouble has already come, and worrying can’t solve the problem, right?

Take care of yourself and let me take care of the backyard, so that I can handle the affairs in the front hall with peace of mind.

The British government has been experiencing constant troubles recently, and the queen is in a very bad mood recently. If you have some free time, go to the palace to talk to the queen. "

Mrs. Shangguan understood that the king was asking her to enter the palace and give the message to Concubine De, so that Concubine De would understand the current situation and not blame Sister Yun for the fault.

Mrs. Shangguan nodded and said, "I understand."

Prime Minister Wang stood up and said, "You have to rest first. I'm going to the outer courtyard to take care of business. You don't have to wait for me tonight. I may have to rest in the outer courtyard today."
