"I asked you why you asked us out so early." Zhang Qihui whispered, "It turned out that you came here before the guests arrived before noon."

"If you are late, I must be heard by others when I tell you this." Li Mumu explained, "It is more convenient to speak while there is no one around yet."

"I got it." Zhang Qihui pinched her lips, "When someone comes later, we'll talk about something that no one can understand."

Li Mumu laughed.

The four of them chatted for a while, and when it was almost noon, guests started arriving one after another.

Li Mumu and the four of them stopped talking about topics that could make people identify their identities.

"I'm just here to try my luck today." Li Mumu whispered, "You may not be able to hear what others are talking about."

"Not necessarily. I think there is a high possibility of hearing it today." Mrs. Shang smiled, "Yesterday was the prince's wedding. As the new crown prince's best friend, you will definitely be discussed. It's not just you. , we, including the Crown Princess, will all be discussed."

Sure enough, not long after Mrs. Shang finished speaking, she heard someone say: "By the way, is this store jointly opened by the Crown Princess and her friends?"

"Yes." The other person nodded, "I really didn't expect that we would always patronize the Crown Princess's shop."

"Do you think the Crown Princess will quit this shop?" Woman A asked, "The shop was opened before. At that time, she was not the Crown Princess, so there was no problem in opening the shop. But now she is the Crown Princess, what if something happens to this shop? Things can easily involve her."

"I don't know if I will quit, but I haven't heard of it so far." Woman B said, "However, the other three owners of this shop, one is the general's wife, the other is Mrs. Tongzhi, and the last Mrs. Gu, no She is just a general's wife, but also a county princess. With their status, even if something happens, they can suppress it without affecting the princess. "

"Since the Crown Princess is still here, even if something bad happens, no one will know about it." Woman B said.

Woman C said: "Before the Crown Princess became the Crown Princess, nothing bad happened to the four of them when they opened this shop. Besides, Mrs. Gu's business is big and the shop has always had a good reputation. I have never heard of this happening. Something about using power to oppress others."

"Yes, as long as nothing happens, it doesn't matter. But if something happens, it will definitely be of no benefit to the Crown Princess." said the woman Ding.

"Forget it, this is not something we need to worry about." Woman A said, "We can't talk anymore, otherwise we will be talking about the Crown Princess."

The other three people also nodded hurriedly, and Woman A added: "Anyway, if the Crown Princess does not withdraw, she probably thinks there is no problem."

"Mrs. Gu and the others probably won't do anything to deceive her because of their friendship with the Crown Princess. After all, they and the Crown Princess share weal and woe." Woman B said softly, "If the Crown Princess is good, they will be good. With Gu Madam and their talents, they should know how to be cautious."

"However, I really didn't expect that Mrs. Gu not only has outstanding abilities, but also has good luck. She was successful in business and was granted the title of County Lord. Now she has become a close friend of the Crown Princess and is now a well-known celebrity in the capital. "The woman Ding said.

"Yes, I heard that many people want to get acquainted with the other three owners of this shop, all because of the Crown Princess." Woman A said.

"Yes, although Mrs. Tongzhi is far away in Chong'an, she will also attract a lot of attention in Chong'an." Woman B said, "The remaining Mrs. Shang and Mrs. Gu are in the capital. I'm afraid they have to pick up each family. The post was received softly."

"But speaking of it, we have never seen or heard of Mrs. Tongzhi, but Mrs. Shang and Mrs. Gu are very famous in the capital." Woman B said in a low voice.

"Ahem." Woman A also lowered her voice, "These two are famous shrews in our capital."

"It seems that they both have some tricks up their sleeves, especially Mrs. Gu. I heard that she became friends with the Crown Princess, who is the granddaughter of General Li, when she was still young." Woman B chuckled, "Daxi There are so many ordinary people in the country, even noble ladies may not say that they can become good friends if they become friends with the Crown Princess, but Mrs. Gu, who was still in her prime at that time, was able to do so, and her relationship with the Crown Princess is as good as it is now."

"With such means, it's no wonder that he can make his husband submissive and not accept two sexual desires." Woman B said.

"To be honest, I'm quite envious." Woman C said, "It's not so much that they have the ability, but rather that besides their ability, their husbands are also willing to cooperate."

"If you meet such a heartless person, even if your wife is capable, no matter how you control him, what's the use? Even if he can't be accepted into the home, he will still wander outside." Woman C said, "My child You are more obedient than your husband, right? But you still can’t control yourself when you should. Then your husband has second thoughts, especially if you can control him with some means? "

"That's right." Woman A sighed, "People outside always say that Mrs. Gu and Mrs. Shang are shrewd women. But to be honest, I envy them. They have husbands who are devoted to me and don't tolerate two things. I am willing to bear it. The reputation of a shrew.”

"Yes, the woman next door to my house also laughed at Mrs. Gu and Mrs. Shang for being fierce and unvirtuous. But she didn't even look at her husband. He already had three concubines in his house. I heard that he was also eyeing her maid. "The woman Ding said, "Is it good that she is so virtuous?"

"If you ask me, who knows who's life is really comfortable." Woman A said, "I am annoying my concubines in those rooms at home anyway. I don't care at all which room my husband sleeps in now. , but I’m annoyed by those concubines in the house who are always looking for trouble with me.”

"Who isn't? Those who gossip, I think they are clearly jealous." The woman Ding said, "If you ask them if they want their husband to be alone with them, they definitely do."

"But..." Woman B suddenly said, "Those who can be friends must have similar temperaments and similar views. Like the four of us, we talk about everything and have the same views."

"Since both Mrs. Shang and Mrs. Gu treat their husbands like this, I also asked about Mrs. Tongzhi. Although her husband has a concubine, she is not favored. Even now, the status of the wife in the family has become more and more important. The higher you get, the better the relationship with your husband becomes. That concubine lives in a corner and sticks to her duties at home, not daring to act like a monster." Woman B said.

"However, I think that Zuo Tongzhi's change has something to do with Mrs. Zuo's friendship with the Crown Princess, Mrs. Shang and Mrs. Gu." said the woman Ding.
