Trantor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Chuchu was reluctant to take out so many things of thetter generations at once.
Not that she wanted to use them to make money for herself, but it was inappropriate to talk about this with Mrs. Yuan as they only had shallow friendships and small conversations.
Lest she should be suspected.
She was not afraid of trouble, but it did not mean she weed them.
She was willing to give the Yuan n a favor, so she could only show Mrs. Yuan a way based on the existing conditions.
Sooner orter, soybeans would be as popr as rice and wheat.
With the strength of the Yuan n, now was the right time to start the business.
After all, there was no merchant specializing in soybeans. Some rice merchants were selling it but on a small- scale. They would not do any good.
“Miss Lin, you mean that soybeans are very promising?
“Yes, the rice market already has reached saturation point, but soybeans have not. You want to earn the Yuan n a route to retreat. Why not try this?” Mrs. Yuan pondered.
After a long time, she looked up at Chuchu. “Miss Lin, the Yuan n will never forget your kindness.”
“Don’t mention it.” Chuchuughed. “Huihui is my friend. I am also ayman. I just said that casually. I hope you won’tugh at me.”
“Who dares tough at you?” Mrs. Yuan said, “Miss Lin, you have a kind heart and a brilliant mind. No one canpare with you in the world.”
If Chuchu hadn’t already married, she would have proposed marriage to her two sons.
Such a girl, whoever married, was a blessing of the ancestors.
It was a pity that the Yuan n didn’t have such a fortune!
Mrs. Yuan regretted meeting Chuchu toote, and her two sons were too young.
Otherwise, she would have tried everything to make her marry one of her sons.
Chuchu could see from Mrs. Yuan’s eyes that Mrs. Yuan was looking at her imaginary daughter-inw.
Zhao Chuchu was dumbfounded.
She never thought she would be a good daughter-inw candidate for someone one day.
Fortunately, Yuan Hui’s two brothers were still young. Otherwise, Mrs. Yuan would have already made a move. “Mrs. Yuan, I am ttered. It was only my babbling.”
“No, no. You are a good girl.”
“Please stop praising me again. You are making me arrogant.”
Mrs. Yuan couldn’t help butugh.
This girl had such a good character.
If only Huihui could learn something from her.
Thinking about her stepdaughter, Mrs. Yuan couldn’t help but sigh again.
The Ye n and the Hong n were all focusing on her. Suppose it were not for the letter from the Duke’s wife that gave them the strength, they would have significantly suffered now. It would be the worst decision to confront them before arranging a way out.
But now, with Duke Dings support, Mrs. Yuan was much more at ease.
No matter how much Yuan Hui misunderstood her, she would not resent her.
It was difficult for an orphan or a widow and even more challenging to lead the Yuan n, with enemies eyeing them covetously in and outside the family. It would be best for Yuan Hui to be at odds with her.
“Originally, I wanted to suggest that you take Huihui to Duke Ding so she could take advantage of his power. Now that Mrs. Ding had the intention of making marriage to the Yuan n, they should send someone from the Imperial City soon once you reply to her letter. And by then, if you settled on Huihui’s marriage, you won’t have to worry so much.”
Chuchu saw what Mrs. Yuan had in mind and reassured her softly.
Mrs. Yuan looked at her. “It is true that nothing can be hidden from you. Now I only hope that everything will go well in the Imperial City. The Ye and Hong ns are determined to use Huihui to cover their shame.”
“Mrs. Yuan, don’t worry. Everything wille up roses. And in the future, Huihui will understand you.”
“I only hope that all the children of the Yuan n will grow up safely. I don’t want anything more.”
“Then, can you tell me what happened to Old Mr. Yuan?” Chuchu recalled Yuan Hui’s father.
Hearing this, the light in Mrs. Yuan’s eyes darkened.
“No bandits were robbing him but hidden traitors in the n. However, the worst thing is that I do not have any evidence. Even if I know who did it, I can only let him get away with it and still have to smile at him all these years. I don’t want him to find some clues andy a hand on Huihui and her brothers.”
Said Mrs. Yuan through clenched teeth.
“Is it rted to the Xia n?”
“The Xia n and the Yuan n werepeting against each other. That person should not be stupid enough to invite a wolf into the house.”
“But the one from the Xia n is not smart.”
Suppose the murderer who killed Yuan Hui’s father managed it so neatly. It wouldn’t be hard for him to use Xia Songquan.
Xia Songquan’s mind was filled with sex and women. He simply knew nothing about business. Otherwise, he would not allow the Xia n toe to the current situation.
One could know the virtues of the head of the Xia n from their family values.
“I hope you are right. Miss Lin, I’ve been trying to find out all these years, but I haven’t got any clues. For the sake of Huihui and her brothers, I keep everything to myself. Even if Huihui misunderstood that I killed her father, it does not matter as long as they are safe.”
Even Mrs. Yuan couldn’t get evidence. How powerful the murderer was in the Yuan n!
Chuchu didn’t know, and Mrs. Yuan wouldn’t tell her either.
As for Yuan Hui, it was even more impossible to know.
Old Mrs. Yuan and Mrs. Yuan had tacitly chosen to hide it from the three siblings.
The situation was probably moreplicated than Chuchu had imagined.
But Xie Heng didn’t seem interested in getting involved in the Yuan n’s internal affairs. Chuchu could only remind Yuan Hui to the best of her ability.
After all, there were some paths that Yuan Hui needed to walk alone, and she couldn’t help her for the rest of her life.
When Chuchu came out of Mrs. Yuan’s ce, she ran into Yuan Hui, who was looking for her.
“What are you doing here?” Yuan Hui pulled her away. “Be careful of the pit she dug for you. She’s very calcting.”
“She’s still inside. Aren’t you afraid she would be angry if she heard what you said?” Chuchu tilted her head.
Yuan Hui replied, “I’ve said worse. She dared to do it. Doesn’t she dare admit it?
I’m not afraid of her.”
Chuchu heaved a sigh.
“She was protected, too well protected,” Chuchu thought.
That’s why she suffered a lot in Yuanjiang County.
If it weren’t for Xie Heng’s kindness in letting her save Yuan Hui, Yuan Hui would have died.
“Why are you reacting like this? Has she bribed you too?” Yuan Hui raised her eyebrows, then came up to her ear and said aggrievedly, “Chuchu, you are on my side. You can’t speak for her. If you abandoned me, no one would help me.”
Zhao Chuchu replied, “Come on… don’t y the victim with me. Mrs. Yuan only asked about the tofu skins and tofu. She wanted to have a deal with me.” “She would care for such a small business?
“If you can, why can’t she? It proves that she’s as discerning as you are.”
Yuan Hui rolled her eyes, refusing to continue the topic.
This was precisely what Chuchu wanted.
But she didn’t have the heart to chat with Yuan Hui right now. Her mind was upied with another matter.
Who murdered Yuan Hui’s father?
Xie Heng must have had other intentions in asking her to save Yuan Hui in the first ce..
