After entering the inner room, Nanny Zhang closed the door. Zhou looked at the mysterious Nanny Zhang and felt very strange. Could something have happened in Taoyuanju?

"Madam, when I came here just now, I met Shopkeeper Wen, and he said that the Second Madam went to Taoyuan Residence."

"Auntie Lin?"

"Well, Shopkeeper Wen said that the Second Madam took the Second Miss to Taoyuan Residence early this morning to ask for five hundred taels."

"What, five hundred taels?"

Zhou's eyes widened. Why did this concubine need so much money? But when she thought about the fact that the mansion was emptied, she understood.

"Madam, please don't worry. Shopkeeper Wen said that he didn't give 500 taels, but 250. Shopkeeper Wen also said that the master has given this shop to the second lady."

The more Zhou listened, the more confused it seemed. This Minister Fang actually gave the shop to a concubine and showed no regard for her as the first wife at all. She wasn't even dead yet, but he was forcing her to do something he wanted?

He even took her dowry. He really has great ability.

"Is the master awake?"

"Madam, he is awake."

Zhou's eyes flashed, and then she said something in Nanny Zhang's ear. Nanny Zhang hurried out of the house again.

Fuyao Courtyard.

During the few days that Fang Shiwan and Meng Weilan studied, Meng Weilan was very surprised at Fang Shiwan's learning ability.

Since I discovered that she learns very quickly a few days ago, she made new discoveries today. Not only did she learn etiquette very quickly, she also revised the poems she recited, and she also had her own insights and opinions on some representative objects.

She even used the abacus better than herself, which made her want to teach her everything she had learned.

"Shi Wan, that's all you need to learn today. You've made rapid progress in the past few days."

"Thank you for your teaching, Master Meng. If it weren't for your good teaching, Shi Wan wouldn't have learned so quickly."

Meng Weilan was even happier. This was her student, and Fang Shiwan would never embarrass her in the future.

"It's late, so I'll go back first and come back tomorrow."

"Master Meng, I'll take you there later."

"okay."

Meng Weilan smiled, but the curve of her mouth never dropped.

Looking at Fang Shiwan's somewhat empty yard and thinking of the rumors in the imperial city over the past two days, Meng Weilan smiled and said, "Shiwan, your yard is a little empty. I'll send someone to bring you some things after I go back."

"No need, Master Meng, this thing was stolen by a thief. Maybe it will be returned someday."

Fang Shiwan sounded very guilty about what she said, she didn't want to return the things, otherwise if the people in the Shangshu Mansion found out, who knows what tricks they would use to cause trouble.

"Shi Wan, listen to Aunt Meng. There are too few things in your yard. How can a young lady be so shabby? You can't refuse, otherwise I will be sad."

Looking at Master Meng's expectant face, Fang Shiwan had no choice but to nod.

She would find a way to return the money to Aunt Meng later, so she would just keep it for now.

"That's good. I'm going back now. You don't have to see me off."

"Okay, Master Meng, I'll go back after I see you get on the carriage."

"Yes." The coachman saw the lady coming out, so he hurriedly pulled the carriage over, picked up the bench, and helped Meng Weilan get on the carriage.

Looking at the person leaving, Fang Shiwan's mouth curled up. Mother's handkerchief is so nice.

Just as he was about to turn around, Fang Shiwan heard someone calling him.

"Miss Fang, please stay."

Fang Shiwan turned around and found that it was the owner of Luoshangfang, with a servant beside him.

Only then did she remember that she had made a few sets of clothes for Ziyun and Nanny Zhang at Luoshangfang a few days ago.

"Boss, I'm sorry to ask you to come here in person."

The shopkeeper came closer, wiped the sweat off his forehead with his sleeve, and said with a smile: "Miss Fang, it's not hard, this is what I should do. Do you see that the clothes are being sent inside?"

"Well, come on, I'll take you in."

"okay."

The shopkeeper waved to the servant beside him, then respectfully followed Fang Shiwan into the mansion.

"Miss, what are you doing?"

"Yes, sister, why did you bring a man into the backyard?"

Aunt Lin and Fang Zhirou walked out of the yard and happened to see Fang Shiwan and the owner of Luoshangfang walking towards the backyard.

Fang Shiwan's eyes flickered, and she smiled and said, "Auntie Lin, Second Sister, these are the clothes I made for the two maids. The shopkeeper has delivered them now, so I am leading him to take the clothes inside."

"Maid's clothes?" Aunt Lin asked in surprise.

"Well, my two maids haven't changed their clothes for many years. I don't know who is in charge of the mansion. They didn't even notice such a small matter and made me, a legitimate daughter, worry about it. So I had to take my maids out to make a few clothes."

After hearing what Fang Shiwan said, Aunt Lin lowered her head guiltily. This bitch actually dared to frame her.

The shopkeeper behind him was also a connoisseur and quickly added:

"Miss, you didn't just make a few sets of clothes. These clothes are more than enough for two maids to wear. Just the brocade and soft brocade fabrics show that you treat these two maids very well."

"Miss, it is a great honor to be your maid."

Fang Shiwan smiled.

Aunt Lin and Fang Zhirou were shocked when they heard this. What? Soft brocade and woven brocade? They had just gone out and made two sets each. How could this bitch just use such fine fabrics to make clothes for the maids?

Fang Zhirou's nails dug into her flesh and she was shaking with anger before she let go.

"Sister, how can a maid wear such nice clothes?"

"Is this dress good?" Fang Shiwan turned around deliberately and said to the shopkeeper, "Shopkeeper, I don't read much and don't understand these things. Is this fabric good?"

"My dear Miss, this cloth is the lowest quality in our Luoshangfang, but when worn by a maid, she will be the best among the maids."

When they heard it was Luoshangfang, their eyes widened. This bitch actually spent so much money to go to Luoshangfang just to make clothes for her servants?

Thinking of the current situation in the mansion, Aunt Lin sneered.

"Miss, don't you know what's going on in the mansion now? If the master knew that you made such nice clothes for the maid, be careful of the master's family rules."

Fang Shiwan looked behind Aunt Lin and said, "Aunt Lin, I don't know whether my father is serving according to the family rules, but the silver I used was given by my grandfather. My grandfather said that I can spend the silver however I want. Even if I give it to a beggar, my grandfather will be happy."

"Rebellious girl."

Minister Fang was not far away. Hearing their conversation, he was so angry that he asked Ding Bo to help him over.

Since he came out of the palace yesterday, he fainted due to anger. He finally managed to negotiate with Doctor Li for credit, and only then did Doctor Li continue to see him.

As soon as he walked out of the door, he heard that she had bought expensive cloth to make clothes for the maid. How could he not be angry?

When the shopkeeper saw Minister Fang coming at him aggressively, for a moment he even wanted to stand in front of Fang Shiwan, but he forced himself to endure it.
