Chapter 109 The sheep enters the tiger's mouth
Nuanxiang, Qi Mei and Qi Lan reported to her what happened in the store.
"The two auctions went very smoothly. A total of 113,600 taels of silver were sold, which was the shop's income in the past month."
"We have also kept the few things that the master requested. They have been locked in the warehouse and have been registered. The key is in Nuanyu's hand."
"Also, the jewelry you asked Master Chen to make for the old lady was delivered to Cuiyuxuan yesterday. It is also in the warehouse and has not been recorded. Whenever the county owner wants it, he can just take it out."
Nuan Xiang, Ba La, Ba La, reported everything that happened during Xia Zihan's absence in the past few days.
After finishing speaking, he presented the account book and then stood aside, waiting for Xia Zihan's instructions.
"Go and rest first. You have been busy for a few days and are tired." Xia Zihan took the account book and put it aside without looking at it in a hurry.
She can trust Qi Mei Nuanxiang to handle several tasks.
Just as Nuanxiang was about to leave the house, she suddenly said, "I almost forgot, I have two things to report to the master."
"What happened?"
"The Wu family sent me a wedding invitation. It's in the hands of Butler Cui Er. The servant also heard from Captain He that the master must be mentally prepared. Sixteen is afraid that he has to go to the Wu family to attend the wedding banquet."
Mrs. Wu had a feud with the Chu family, and she was even more resentful towards her young master. The Chu family was in mourning and banned from the house for three years. Even if Mrs. Wu wanted to take revenge before, she couldn't find a chance.
And this time the young master went to Wu's house, it just gave Mrs. Wu a good opportunity to take revenge. There might be some trap waiting for the young master there.
The little master is trying to put a sheep into a tiger's mouth.
And Mrs. Wu must have been waiting for this opportunity to take revenge.
Otherwise, why would Young Master Wu’s wedding be scheduled for August 16th?
"Also, after the Cuiyuxuan auction, the Dai family sent people to rob and kill the Yu family. They wanted the cat's eye stone noodles, but the people they sent were killed by Chu Xing and the others." It's the Dai family and the Wu family again...
Xia Zihan's eyes darkened, "I know."
……
The next day, after practicing the exercises, Xia Zihan took the things prepared for Zeng and went to Zeng's yard.
"Yu Niang, where did these jewelry and clothes come from? Did you buy them?" Zeng stared at the pile of jewelry and clothes on the table with shock on her face.
On the table, there are more than a dozen clothes, including jackets, jackets, skirts, etc., half of them are autumn clothes, half of them are winter clothes. The materials, workmanship, embroidery, patterns, etc. are all of the highest quality.
She was also dazzled by the jewelry in several boxes. There were even five forehead combs, and there were several pairs of shoes inlaid with turquoise and rubies.
These things are not only made of precious materials, but also the workmanship and patterns... are also rare and exquisite, elegant and ingenious.
Mrs. Zeng has been in the circle of ladies in the capital for half her life and has never seen any good things. But now, she can't help but be clumsy about all the clothes.
Such a good pile of things cannot be taken away without tens of thousands of taels of silver.
"Grandma, these are all from my shop. I specially prepared them for you." Use it, it’s not enough. I’ll get it for you when we get to the capital.”
He said it as if he didn't need any money.
"In your shop?" Ms. Zeng was stunned. Suddenly, she thought of something and looked at her granddaughter in disbelief, "You opened the two shops that have become popular on Yi'an East Street in the past two years?"
