I’ll Be the Male Lead’s Sister-in-Law
Chapter 36: insidious
At this moment, Mu Mingtang, who was sitting in the palace drinking tea, didn't know how much she inadvertently embarrassed some people outside. She carefully looked at the blue woven golden cloud and xia brocade in her hand, and wondered: "This brocade is beautiful, the pattern is flat, the color is inherent, and it is soft and docile. It is just used to make a robe. Are the other colors delivered?"
"Back to the princess, Li Ji Jinxiu has delivered it."
Mu Mingtang nodded, she saw this material at a glance. She was thinking about making some new clothes for Xie Xuanchen, and happened to run into this. This blue is pure and extravagant, Xie Xuanchen must look good in it.
Moreover, this color is suitable for men and women, and she can also use it, so Mu Mingtang also wasted a handful and wrapped up all the fabrics. Mu Mingtang spent the whole afternoon's money and was quite satisfied at the moment, saying, "Okay, how much money has been spent, let's settle it together."
"Yes."
After Mu Mingtang's "shopping" was over, he happily returned to Yulintang to collect the spoils. She didn’t know at the moment, because she bought out the gold and cloud-xia brocade, which became famous in the first battle in the capital. Everyone wanted to see what was special about the brocade that the two princesses were fighting over. There is a woven gold Yunxia brocade, and the price of Song brocade increased within a few days. In the end, the price of Yunxia brocade rose to ten times the original price.
When Mu Mingtang heard about this, the market outside was already up and down. Mu Mingtang was surprised when he heard the quote: "How much did you say about this brocade?"
"Every two thousand dollars."
When Mu Mingtang heard the price for a long time without speaking, she couldn't help asking: "It's not a seasonal issue recently, why has it risen so much?"
The maid lowered her head with an expression of hesitant to speak: "Wang Hao, because Princess Jin also bought this brocade on that day."
Only then did Mu Mingtang know that she had cut Jiang Mingwei's Hu without knowing it.
The following night, Mu Mingtang looked thoughtful. At night, Xie Xuanchen saw it and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Mu Mingtang pursed his lips, and suddenly approached, in a tone like sharing a little secret, he said to Xie Xuanchen, "Do you know how many pieces of fabric I bought a few days ago?"
Xie Xuanchen nodded: "I know. What's wrong?"
After Mu Mingtang finished speaking, he was a little embarrassed, maybe it was not a few horses. But she was still very calm, and continued: "There was a brocade with golden brocade. At that time, I asked for the price. It was eighty bucks and one tael, but now it has become a thousand bucks! It has only been a few days, and it turned over. Ten times as much!"
After hearing this, Xie Xuanchen nodded, and said: "Madam is really good at managing her family. Buying things not only saves money, but now she is still making money. As expected, you should take care of the money, and I will rely on you in the future."
When Xie Xuanchen said these words, she was extremely righteous and confident. Mu Mingtang felt helpless after hearing these words. She didn't feel that she was really a genius. Does Xie Xuanchen really know nothing about it? He just doesn't bother to think about it.
Mu Mingtang realized that Xie Xuanchen's thoughts had been biased again, and she quickly pulled the topic back: "I'm not telling you this. Do you know why it doubled tenfold?"
Xie Xuanchen's tone was light, and he almost didn't even want to say: "Odd goods can live in, someone bids."
Mu Mingtang waited expectantly for a long time, and found that Xie Xuanchen was not surprised at all. She was very surprised: "How did you know?"
"It's not easy to guess." Xie Xuanchen said, "If you are qualified to bid with you, just count and count."
Mu Mingtang was frustrated, feeling that sharing secrets with Xie Xuanchen didn't feel any sense of accomplishment. She sighed, held her head in another direction, still in a daze.
After Xie Xuanchen found out that he had finished speaking, Mu Mingtang stopped talking. He was a little surprised, and felt puzzled beyond the accident. He waited silently for a while, seeing that Mu Mingtang still didn't mean to speak, he could only ask: "What are you thinking?"
"I'm thinking about how to resell those few brocades."
Xie Xuanchen choked on a rare occasion. He looked for a while and found that Mu Mingtang's appearance did not seem to be fake: "You mean it?"
"Yeah." Mu Mingtang nodded, apparently thinking about it seriously, "Ten times, such a good price difference, is it a fool not to make money."
Xie Xuanchen had nothing to say, Mu Mingtang really didn't take the usual path, he hadn't felt this kind of surprise that he hadn't expected the other party to move for a long time. Xie Xuanchen was also silent for a while, and asked curiously: "Don't you like this material very much?"
"I like it." Mu Mingtang turned around and said very seriously, "But, I also like money. Anyway, I can't run out of it, so why can't I get along with it?"
Xie Xuanchen was speechless for a while, and Mu Mingtang looked serious and asked, "Do you have any proper way to sell the stock upside down?"
This question really asked Xie Xuanchen. He thought for a while, and truthfully replied: "It's hard to find."
The difficulty is not selling things, nor finding people, but finishing.
After all, he is surrounded by the emperor's eyeliner. How to not be suspected by the emperor and how to explain this behavior is the most difficult.
Mu Mingtang quickly thought of their situation and sighed: "That's right, I forgot that it's not my home now, and it's not Xiangyang. Forget it, if you don't lose money anyway, just stay in the warehouse."
Although Mu Mingtang said so, he was a little depressed in his heart. When Xie Xuanchen saw it, he suddenly said: "It's just hard to find, it may not be found."
Mu Mingtang turned his head: "What?"
Xie Xuanchen stretched out his index finger and slowly pointed towards the next door.
Mu Mingtang was stunned, and slowly realized what Xie Xuanchen meant. After she wanted to understand, she looked at Xie Xuanchen's candid expression and couldn't help but smile: "You are..."
Ever since Jiang Mingwei became a princess, she wanted to build momentum for her position as a queen in the future, so she actively made friends with family members and participated actively in various banquets in the capital. In order to show the demeanor of the mother of the country in the future, Jiang Mingwei prepared a big banquet in the Jin Dynasty Mansion with all his strength, inviting many officials and wives to attend.
The banquet has been organized since half a month ago, and Jiang Mingwei attaches great importance to this matter. She was not a regular wife in her previous life, but Mu Mingtang, the adopted daughter of the Jiang family, became a queen, which has become Jiang Mingwei's heart disease. Therefore, during the rebirth in this life, she is extremely persistent in hosting banquets, going out to socialize, and other symbols of the wife.
However, no matter how much you prepare, there are some things you can't force, such as the venue. Xie Xuanji made a special trip to the Lifu to be next to Xie Xuanchen. By doing so, he could please the emperor, monitor Xie Xuanchen, and show his virtue. But accordingly, something must be sacrificed.
In the capital city, there is little land suitable for building mansions. Xie Xuanchen was at the peak of his power when he established his mansion. Of course, his mansion had no restrictions. The best and smoothest land in this area was included in his palace. It is conceivable that when Xie Xuanji built the palace here many years later, he did not have much choice.
Although the two palaces are adjacent to each other, the Jin palace does not have the layout of the neighboring palace's central axis running through and left and right open, and even the central axis cannot be made up. Only the hall for weddings, funerals and imperial decree is tall and bright. Buildings will have the only remaining space and have to be reduced or distorted.
The main hall where the prince and the concubine lived is like this, and the garden is even more unnecessary. The garden of King Jin’s Mansion is said to be a garden, but in fact, it is just a small garden that can be seen at a glance.
As soon as Jiang Mingwei raised her head, she could see the plants and flowers next door, and even the garden with the sound of running water. She gritted her teeth with hatred in her heart. She tried her best to decorate the guests this time, but the clever woman could hardly cook without rice, because no matter how much money was spent, no matter how exquisite things were displayed, there was a sense of embarrassment.
After everyone came, they lamented Jiang Mingwei's noble taste and good intentions. When the people were young, it was not obvious. Later, when the wife and his wife arrived at the scene with their respective maids, the number of people in the garden rapidly increased, so that even walking needed to be moved. At this time, the complicated furnishings in the field are not delicate, but chaotic.
However, no one dared not give the face of Princess Jin, everyone could only bite the bullet and praise it. When it was in the hustle and bustle, a group of maids suddenly came from outside to see how they walked. Most of them came out of the palace.
The full garden suddenly muffled, and the maids shook hands, walked to Jiang Mingwei's side, and gave a salute: "Slaves see Princess Jin."
Jiang Mingwei recognized that this was the person from Mu Mingtang's side. On a busy day, Mu Mingtang sent someone to him. Jiang Mingwei intuitively felt that it would not be a good thing. She didn't welcome her in her heart, and her face couldn't help but bring out a little: "It turns out to be the person next to the second wife. She sent you here, what's the matter?"
The headed maid gave a step and motioned to the entourage behind her to present the wooden box: "Return to Princess Jin. The Princess recently heard that Princess Jin wanted to buy gold brocade. She was very surprised. The Princess said that they are all a family. This kind of alienation, since Princess Jin likes it, she just asks the princess to come directly. Why should she spread it outside? Therefore, the princess ordered her slaves to send four golden brocades of Yunxia to the princess Jin."
The maid opened the wooden box as she said, and there was a deep green brocade inside. The other three boxes were similar. The maid did not avoid others when she said these things, and the four wooden boxes were eye-catching enough that even if the maid didn't say it, everyone couldn't ignore it.
At the banquet, the atmosphere stagnated. Finally, the wife who was at the table with Jiang Mingwei smiled and said, "The elders of Princess An and Princess Jin are very young, and the young are respectful. It is moving. It is a model for women. I have benefited a lot. ."
Jiang Mingwei could only smile reluctantly when he heard the compliment, but there was no joy on her face: "A gentleman doesn't take the love of others, this is the beloved thing of his sister-in-law, how can I dare to take love? I took the second sister-in-law’s wish. Although I have no blessings, please take it back and let my sister-in-law use it by herself."
"Princess Jin is too worried, the princess said, this is the wish of her elder sister-in-law, and princess Jin does not have to refuse, she accepts it. If princess Jin insists on resigning, she will not like the princess."
How dare Jiang Mingwei respond to such words. But Mu Mingtang is really good at it. Before he gave her a faceless face in front of her childhood playmates, and now she deliberately chooses her banquet on the day of her banquet, and smashes the venue in public. Jiang Mingwei always wanted something for the first time, and Mu Mingtang deliberately bought it out, and then gave it to her pretendingly. What does it mean?
Alms?
Moreover, Mu Mingtang sent all green brocades! Even if Jiang Mingwei likes to wear clothes such as light blue and light green, seeing such a green brocade at this moment, she can't help but wonder whether Mu Mingtang deliberately connoted her?
However, with all eyes in full view, Mu Mingtang almost said, "The elders don't dare to resign." Mu Mingtang is shameless, but Jiang Mingwei can't let it go. Jiang Mingwei could only endure this sullenness and smiled: "Thank you, my sister-in-law. But a piece of golden brocade is expensive to make, and no merit can be won. How can I dare to receive such a heavy gift?"
The maid still gave Mu Mingtang's words sternly: "The princess said that the princess Jin would accept it, and there is no need to return it. What the princess Jin likes are paintings and calligraphy, piano scores and chess scores. Princess Jin doesn’t have to respond."
Jiang Mingwei almost vomited out of blood. Mu Mingtang wanted to be shameless and even checked out what was the gift in return?
How could she be so skinless and faceless?
However, after all, good face is not better than shameless. Jiang Mingwei can't be ashamed in front of everyone, she can only gritted her teeth and said: "How can this be done. Come and go without being indecent. I played a new set of white jade face yesterday. I haven't worn it before, so if my sister-in-law doesn't like it, take it. The little gift is not a respect, I hope my sister-in-law Haihan."
The leading maid saluted Jiang Mingwei, but said nothing this time. After Jiang Mingwei asked the maid to get something, she took it and left. Jiang Mingwei was stunned. The white jade head noodles were specially made by her for the New Year's Eve palace banquet. The raw materials of light white jade are expensive, not to mention the wages. And such precious, invaluable jewellery, has it been exchanged for four green brocades?
Jiang Mingwei looked calm, generous and generous in front of everyone, but her heart was dripping with pain. Merchants have been selling Song Jin on a large scale these days. Although Yunxia Jin is still expensive, the price is falling day by day, but the white jade jewelry Jiang Mingwei sent out is real gold and silver. This time, she really suffered a lot.
Inside the Yulin Hall, Mu Mingtang opened the box held by the maid, and unexpectedly picked up the tip of his eyebrows. Eight hundred for ten thousand, this business is too worthwhile.
As for the few green brocades sent out, Xie Xuanchen refused to wear green clothes anyway. Mu Mingtang also felt that the omen was not good, so he used it as waste and sold it to Jiang Mingwei. Facts have proved that Jiang Mingwei is really a qualified taker.
Mu Mingtang held back his laugh, and dismissed the maid. Xie Xuanchen looked at Mu Mingtang's expression very strange, he had already guessed the result in his heart, but still asked, "How is it?"
Mu Mingtang hugged the box to Xie Xuanchen like offering treasures, and opened it, "Look!"
Xie Xuanchen cast his eyes down, then smiled slightly and said, "The color of the water is good."
Xie Xuanchen said so, which shows that it is really valuable. Mu Mingtang happily put the things away: "Jiang Mingwei is too good to cheat. I will be able to make a fortune by coming here a few more times."
Xie Xuanchen felt that Mu Mingtang's happiness came really simple. Being infected by her, Xie Xuanchen's mood improved unknowingly: "It's his wife who is good at managing the family."
When Mu Mingtang raised his eyebrows when he heard this, he said pointedly: "It's the prince's guidance."
After all, this idea came from Xie Xuanchen. Not only can it satisfy Mu Mingtang's desire to buy low and sell high, but it can also block the emperor's mouth openly. This trick is really good.
Perhaps, people who are still disgusting and displeased. Mu Mingtang admired Xie Xuanchen very much. In this world, some people seem to be weak and harmless, but he actually made insidious ideas.
Xie Xuanchen heard a soft smile, didn't refute, and didn't care too much: "Just have fun."
