Traveling through famine years, peasant girls hold space in their hands to store food

Just after Chen time the next day, Mrs. Chen booked Yongcheng Zhouji Tea House early and invited ladies from various aristocratic families to come and participate.

And this time Lu Qingqing also took out several diamond rings and pairs of rings for auction.

The proceeds from the auction were donated to the people in Yongcheng who were affected by the disaster.

Mrs. Chen looked at what Princess Chen took out and exclaimed that this was very valuable. She had heard from the master that this diamond could only be found in Princess Chen's shop and it was very rare.

"Princess is righteous!"

Mrs. Chen respectfully blessed Lu Qingqing.

Soon the maid downstairs came up to remind a few people, "Madam, the people below Princess Chen are almost here."

Mrs. Chen stood up slowly, turned to look at Princess Chen aside, and saw Lu Qingqing smiling at her and Tiantian, saying softly, "Let's go down then."

Mrs. Chen was blessed and walked slowly downstairs. At this time, the lobby was already full of people, and young ladies from well-dressed families followed their mothers or mistresses.

Next, Mrs. Chen opened the show:

"Thank you all ladies and ladies for coming to participate in this special fundraising event. This time we are also raising funds for the people affected by the disaster in Yongcheng."

The ladies from all the houses below were whispering to each other.

“It turns out it’s a fundraiser!”

"Yeah! I'll just say it."

"What kind of fund-raising method does Mrs. Chen use to raise funds?"

When Mrs. Chen heard someone asking, she looked at Princess Chen beside her and then explained with a smile.

There is no limit to money or quantity in this fundraiser. Even some old clothes from the house or rice and grain can be used. This is also a great charity. I hope all the ladies can donate generously.

Everyone below started talking, and then Lu Qingqing motioned to Ziyao to bring the things up.

Mrs. Chen understood, nodded slightly towards her, then turned around and said to the ladies below:

"Madams, this is the diamond ring that Princess Chaochen brought out. This time I want to raise money for the people of Yongcheng. If you like it, you can bid for it."

Hearing Mrs. Chen's words, everyone felt strange. Looking at the novel diamond ring in front of them, they all looked determined to win.

"Oh, it's really a diamond."

"Yes, I heard that this thing is also quite expensive in the capital."

"Who says it isn't? When my husband went to the capital to discuss business, he wanted to give me one, but he couldn't get the number."

After hearing this, the ladies and ladies around them exclaimed in surprise. A few days ago, at the Miss Liang family’s hairpin banquet, Miss Lu Er’s entire head and face were customized with diamonds. Then...

"Mrs. Chen, tell me how much money this will cost."

Mrs. Chen looked at the Mrs. Wang who was asking the question below. She was the head wife of the Wang family in Yongcheng, and the Wang family was a big brewer.

Mrs. Chen had communicated with Princess Chen before. She smiled slightly and directly stated the base price.

"The base price of each ring is three hundred taels, and the starting price for each auction must not be less than one hundred taels."

At this time, Mrs. Liang took Liang Shishi into the teahouse, looked at Mrs. Chen in front of her and said.

"Mrs. Chen, please forgive me. My daughter is going to give porridge outside the city today. I hope you will forgive me for being late."

Mrs. Chen made an invitation gesture with a smile on her face. After the Liang family mother and daughter took their seats, the auction officially began.

"I'll pay four hundred taels."

Mrs. Wang was the first to bid, and the other ladies who were eager to take a chance also started to join the bidding.

At this time, Lu Qingqing, who was upstairs, took Ziyao down to tell everyone about the meaning of diamonds.

Looking at the maid coming down from upstairs, her aura was no less than that of every young lady from aristocratic families present.

"You ladies and ladies may not know that this diamond is a symbol of love, and this diamond is extremely rare overseas. There is a saying that a diamond is forever, and one diamond lasts forever."

Before Ziyao could finish her words, someone raised their hands and shouted six hundred taels.

Liang Shishi looked at the pair of rings and felt extremely envious in her heart. Thinking of the sweet appearance that day, she felt jealous in her heart.

"Mom, I want it too!"

Mrs. Liang clapped her hands and whispered softly, "Okay, okay!" As soon as he finished speaking, he started bidding.

"One thousand taels!"

As soon as Mrs. Liang's words came out, many ladies stopped continuing. If they continued, they would be taken advantage of.

After Mrs. Chen repeatedly inquired and found no one was bidding, she decided that the diamond ring should belong to Mrs. Liang.

Lu Qingqing upstairs saw that things were going well.

In the end, those rings were auctioned for a high price of 3,400 taels.

"Master, it seems that there are many rich people in Yongcheng!"

At this time, Mrs. Chen was organizing everyone to start collecting donations.

"All the ladies and ladies who are raising funds can start now."

After Mrs. Chen finished speaking, everyone below started talking for a while, and the first person to stand up was Liang Shishi from the Liang family.

I saw her pulling out the bun from her bun, walking gracefully to the front, and putting it into the tray in front of everyone.

Then he blessed Mrs. Chen.

"Ms. Liang is righteous."

Mrs. Chen said to her with a slight smile.

At this time, many ladies below saw this scene, smiled sarcastically, and encouraged the daughters around them to follow the example of Miss Liang. This would also gain a good reputation, wouldn't it?

Mrs. Chen looked at the scene in front of her and felt extremely happy. She didn't expect that Princess Chen's idea was really successful.

Finally, when it was coming to an end, Lu Qingqing saw that it was almost done, so he ordered Ziyao to give all the ladies a small item from the Delicate Lingxiu Pavilion.

For example, a lip balm, a handbag, etc...

Sister Lu Qingqing came downstairs with her maid.

Mrs. Chen quickly stepped forward and bowed to salute. The ladies and ladies below were all stunned when they saw Lu Qingqing.

When did such a stunning person appear in Yongcheng? Miss Lu Er next to her looked inferior.

"Everyone, this is Princess Chen, the eldest lady of the Lu family. The gifts given to everyone's wives this time are also prepared by Princess Chen."

Mrs. Chen introduced everyone.

"The civilian woman has thanked Princess Chen. I didn't expect to meet Princess Chen today. The princess is indeed the most beautiful woman in Dayuan!"

Mrs. Wang's wife was a smart talker and started to praise her when she came up. At this time, all the ladies behind started chatting with Lu Qingqing.

Liang Shishi and her daughter were startled when they looked at the person in front of them. They didn't expect that the sweet sister on the road was actually Princess Chen...

"mother......"

Liang Shishi took Mrs. Liang's hand and shouted. Her mother patted her hand and pulled her towards Lu Qingqing.

"I've met Princess Chen."

Mrs. Liang and her daughter leaned over and saluted.

Lu Qingqing had just learned from Mrs. Chen that they were the mistress and legitimate daughter of the Liang family, a large grain producer in Yongcheng.

She looked at Liang Shishi. This delicate look was really what men liked.

What a pity!
