Chapter 33 Sit back and wait for the fish to take the bait

Chapter 33 Waiting for the fish to take the bait

In Zhuyuyuan, the sound of the eldest daughter-in-law Ling Wei pointing at the mulberry tree and scolding the locust tree was loud.

"Seeing that spring is about to begin, you still want to buy carbon? I don't think about how much our annual expenses are. You can do whatever you want. Could it be that all of us are dead, as long as you mother and daughter Is it enough to live a carefree life?"

Fan Qingyao and Nanny Xu almost walked into Zhuyuyuan despite being scolded.

Mother Xu looked at her eldest daughter-in-law, Ling Wei, on the steps, her face darkened and she was about to step forward.

"Mommy, there's no need to be angry. We're here to do things, not to quarrel." Fan Qingyao held her hand. The eldest daughter-in-law Ling Wei was used to having a domineering temper. At this time, Nanny Xu retorted, It undoubtedly added fuel to the fire.

In this way, she took the initiative to walk to the steps and said, "Qingyao, please say hello to my eldest sister-in-law."

The eldest daughter-in-law, Ling Wei, sneered and said, "You are really in trouble now. You use that court judge to get into the house every day. Not only do you dictate the affairs of the Hua family, but you also take the treasure all by yourself. I can't be your uncle." Mom, I can’t afford your comfort!”

As soon as he finished speaking, he turned around and walked into the house, closing the door tightly.

"Little miss!" Nanny Xu looked at the door that suddenly rang in front of Fan Qingyao, and quickly ran over, checking Fan Qingyao carefully.

This grandma is simply too deceptive.

Fan Qingyao was very calm, "Mother Xu, let's go back."



Fan Qingyao nodded and left like that.

The reason she came here this time was just to check out her eldest sister-in-law. Now that she knew what her eldest aunt's purpose was, she naturally had to go back and make preparations.

Mama Xu found that she could no longer guess what the young lady was thinking. It had only been a year, but she seemed to have grown seven or eight years earlier.

 What shocked Nanny Xu even more was what was still behind...

As soon as Fan Qingyao returned to Mingyue Courtyard, he asked the maids to take out the Blood Ganoderma lucidum from the house and specially picked a conspicuous place in the yard to place it.

 Mother Xu was stunned.

 In her half-life, this was the first time she saw someone offering a Ganoderma lucidum plant in the yard.

Fan Qingyao said, "Grandma gave me the blood Ganoderma lucidum, so naturally I wanted to pay for it. Aunt Xu soon took other people in the yard to publicize it in the house, so that everyone could Everyone is happy."

Mama Xu nodded in confusion, and immediately led all the servants in the yard out.

An hour later, everyone in the Hua family knew that the old lady had given the blood Ganoderma lucidum to Miss Qingyao, and it was currently being offered to her in the Mingyue Courtyard.

The daughters-in-law from all the houses came to Mingyue Courtyard, but they were not here to admire the Blood Ganoderma lucidum. The strange-looking blood-red thing was not even as good as a potted flower to them.

"Xiao Qingyao, this is given to you by the third aunt, take it carefully." The third daughter-in-law Peihan took out a few banknotes from her arms and stuffed them in. Her family's Tianyu can get brocade silk, that's all. It’s Xiao Qingyao’s contribution.

"This is mine. You can use it together. If you want to buy charcoal, buy it." Yafu, the fourth daughter-in-law, also took out the money.

“And I, and I...” The second daughter-in-law Chun Yue also came over.

In just a moment, Fan Qingyao was transformed into a little God of Wealth.

Ling Wei, the eldest daughter-in-law in Zhuyuyuan, heard what was going on in Mingyueyuan, her hands were trembling with anger, and she immediately rushed to Mingyueyuan accompanied by her maid.

The Blood Ganoderma lucidum was placed steadily in the Mingyue Courtyard. Its bright red color and priceless appearance all stung the eldest daughter-in-law Ling Wei's heart, which was both cruel and itchy.

The maid who was supporting her said softly, "Grandma, it stands to reason that you have given up the thought of buying charcoal. Miss Qingyao should be anxious. Why now..."

Not only did he not look anxious at all, but he actually seemed to be okay?

Fan Qingyao is certainly not in a hurry.

The bait has been put out, are you still worried about the big fish not taking the bait?

That night, the eldest daughter-in-law Ling Wei, who was so stimulated by the blood Ganoderma that she couldn't eat or sleep, confidently came to Mingyue Yuan again.

"It's okay to buy charcoal, but you have to give me half of the Blood Ganoderma." The eldest daughter-in-law, Ling Wei, was too lazy to beat around the bush anymore. She stared at the Blood Ganoderma with bright eyes, wishing she could take it back to her yard right now. .

After hearing this, Nanny Xu had the intention to kill. How can a person be so shameless?

Fan Qingyao nodded, "Okay."

 Mother Xu exclaimed, “Little Miss, that is Miss’s life-saving medicine!”

Fan Qingyao signaled to Nanny Xu to feel at ease.

 She would not joke with her mother's life.

"Three days later, when my mother has finished taking the medicine, I will personally send someone to deliver the blood Ganoderma lucidum to my eldest sister-in-law. Can my eldest sister-in-law wait?" Fan Qingyao looked at his eldest daughter-in-law Ling Wei and asked.

“My eldest sister-in-law loves you the most, so I can wait for you.” The eldest daughter-in-law, Ling Wei, finally had a smile on her face and left with satisfaction.

Looking at that hypocritical face, Grandma Xu frowned in disgust.

Fan Qingyao was calm. He first told Nanny Xu to move the Blood Ganoderma lucidum back to the house, and then hurried out of the yard and went straight to the accounting room.

Cheng Yizheng, who was gathering the accounts in the accounting room, was doing his calculations. When he saw Fan Qingyao entering, he quickly stood up and said, "Send hello to Miss Qingyao."

Fan Qingyao had no time to be polite to him, "I want to get some money to buy charcoal."

Cheng Yigang was not surprised when someone from Zhuyuyuan said that the eldest lady had agreed to buy charcoal. “I wonder how much money Miss Qingyao wants to receive?”

Fan Qingyao asked instead, "How much does the Hua family spend per month?"

Cheng Yi thought that Fan Qingyao wanted to withdraw one month's expenses, so he said truthfully, "One hundred taels of silver is enough."

Unexpectedly, Fan Qingyao said, "Then keep a hundred taels and spend the rest to buy charcoal."

Cheng Yi was so frightened that he trembled and hit the abacus on his feet.

This night, Fan Qingyao could not sleep a wink. He personally led Nanny Xu and Cheng Yi to knock on the doors of various charcoal shops in the city.

After finally coming back early in the morning, Fan Qingyao told Nanny Xu again, "Take someone to go to Temple Street tonight and tell them that there is news from the Si Tianfu Yamen that the weather will change in the next few days. "

“I understand, young lady.” Nanny Xu had been struggling all night and she really had no experience to think about it.

Mainly because she knew that she couldn't understand the young lady's thoughts even if she wanted to, so she simply nodded in agreement and took others out of Hua's house that night.

 In one night, news spread throughout the city that the weather was about to change.

 The poor people in Temple Street really believed it. Just in case, they started buying charcoal while it was cheap.

 The bureaucrats and wealthy families in the city were also surprised at first, and of course, this included the Fan family.

Fan Zixiu even went to Sitianfu Yamen personally to ask for help. After learning that it was completely out of thin air, he not only took the opportunity to raise the price of charcoal in his house and sold it to a charcoal shop at a high price, but also used this news as a way to win over The method was used to inform other colleagues in the DPRK.

  It spread to ten people and hundreds of people. For a time, all the bureaucrats and nobles in the city were grateful for Fan Zixiu's good work, and at the same time, they sneered at this matter.

 Three days passed like this.

On this day, after the eldest daughter-in-law Ling Wei followed the other daughters-in-law to help Tao Yuxian get ready for the morning and dusk, she deliberately said to the maid next to her, "Go and tell Mingyue Yuan and ask them to send the blood Ganoderma lucidum here."

Tao Yuxian frowned, "What do you mean by blood Ganoderma lucidum?"

The eldest daughter-in-law, Ling Wei, looked proud, "The old lady didn't know something. I saw Qingyao was pitiful, so I agreed to buy charcoal. Qingyao said she was grateful when I asked her to buy charcoal and insisted on giving me half of the blood Ganoderma lucidum. I was If you don’t want it, Qingyao will give it to me regardless of life or death.”

“You are so impudent!” Tao Yuxian slammed the table, scaring the other daughters-in-law to the point where they all knelt on the ground.

"Anyway, Miss Blood Ganoderma can't eat it alone. Instead of leaving it in the house, why can't you give it to me?" The eldest daughter-in-law Ling Wei also knelt on the ground, but she looked confident.

Tao Yuxian was so angry that he was breathing heavily.

In recent years, the eldest daughter-in-law Ling Wei has often used money from the Hua family to supplement her natal family. She knew that the eldest daughter-in-law was greedy, but she did not expect that she would be so greedy.

"Grandma, the young lady asked me to deliver blood Ganoderma lucidum to you." The maid's voice suddenly sounded outside the door.

The eldest daughter-in-law Ling Wei smiled and turned her head, but she turned to stone in an instant.
