Reborn as a farmer's favorite, Koi sweet wife super lucky husband
Chapter 235 The risk is too great
The Wu family was naturally well aware of this. As soon as the villagers left, someone came to Ran He and started talking in a low voice.
Aunt Zhang looked displeased, and her tone was somewhat reproachful: "These people really don't know what's good for them. They just received a favor, and now they turn around and blatantly want to exchange it for silver. It's really shameful."
When encountering this kind of thing, people who value their reputation will deal with it quietly, or deliberately delay it for a few days to avoid unnecessary gossip.
Who would have thought that these people in the village had no scruples and acted so openly. This behavior undoubtedly brought discredit to the Wu family and made people feel uncomfortable.
"Aunt Zhang, don't take it personally. Things that are given away are like water that has been poured out. We have no right to control how others deal with them."
Ran He spoke softly, with a hint of helplessness and open-mindedness in his tone.
"That being said, once the news gets out, it will still be embarrassing."
Aunt Zhang's brows were furrowed, her tone full of worry.
As an old lady from a royal palace who had been immersed in rules and etiquette for many years, she naturally found it difficult to let go of such impolite behavior.
In her opinion, this is not only a matter of personal face, but also a matter of family reputation.
"Moreover, a person who truly understands etiquette would never do something so contrary to common sense."
Nian Xia added, her eyes flashing with confusion and slight mockery of these actions.
Aunt Zhang looked at Ran He and Nian Xia in front of her. One of the master and servant was gentle as water, and the other was extremely smart. She shook her head helplessly.
Having served the princess for these years, she has long been aware of her gentle, kind, tolerant and generous character.
This character is certainly good, and is enough to make her respected in a small world like the palace, but if she were placed in the complex and ever-changing imperial city or the capital, this softness might become the source of her grievances.
Fortunately, the prince loves the princess very much, otherwise the princess' life would have been much more difficult.
"Princess, you are kind-hearted. If it were any other mistress, she would have been sulking for a long time over this matter."
Aunt Zhang sighed, her words full of recognition of the princess's character and a bit of helplessness towards reality.
"It's just a bunch of trivial things, why bother about it?"
Ran He still smiled, and that calmness seemed to have the power to soothe people.
From Aunt Zhang's complicated gaze, Ran He vaguely read her worries - she was worried that she was too gentle and lacked firmness in her actions, and might suffer losses in complex interpersonal relationships.
Recalling the time he spent with Wu Xu, he knew that most of the household chores were handled by him alone, and he himself rarely did anything. It was no wonder that others would misunderstand him.
But she didn't intend to explain too much. Whether it was misunderstanding or understanding, time would prove everything.
Seeing Aunt Zhang and the others struggling, and fearing that they would really get angry, Ran He explained softly, "In fact, I had anticipated this scene a long time ago, and even wanted to use their help to let the people in Lin'an know about this novelty. In this way, when we sell the fruit candy, wouldn't it be more effective? From a certain perspective, they can be regarded as indirectly helping us."
Aunt Zhang was surprised when she heard this. She looked at her half-believingly and half-doubtingly, "Princess, please don't make an old woman like me laugh."
"Where is it."
Wu Xu smiled and said with trust in his tone, "Aunt Zhang, Ran He always speaks sincerely. I'm really curious about what price they will mark. What if the price is too low, our fruit candy will lose its competitive advantage in the future."
Wu Xu's words were like a stone thrown into a lake, arousing the interest of Aunt Zhang, Nian Xia and others.
What was originally considered an insignificant episode has now become crucial in their minds.
Ran He looked at everyone's nervous expressions and could only helplessly shake his head again.
Wu Xu noticed the fatigue in her eyes and hugged her in his arms, "Are you tired?"
Ran He responded with a faint sound, "Maybe I've been busy lately, so I've become more sleepy."
"If you are tired, take a good rest. They will take care of the household affairs. You don't have to worry about the follow-up. If even you, the head of the household, collapse from exhaustion, then wouldn't the people below have enjoyed your care in vain?"
Wu Xu said with heartache.
"Maybe I'm old and my energy isn't as good as it used to be. A few years ago, this amount of fatigue wouldn't have been worth mentioning."
Ran He smiled bitterly in his heart, remembering the saying "Giving birth to a child makes people stupid for three years". Perhaps it was from that time that his body began to change.
"What do you mean old? Madam is still in her prime."
Wu Xu's words were full of fondness for her.
And in the Qian Mansion,
Qian Yunqing stood quietly outside the door. The movement in the house seemed to have nothing to do with him, and his face was indifferent.
After a long while, until the house had completely calmed down, a steady call was heard from inside.
"Come in."
Qian Yunqing pushed the door open and walked in. A special scent of this place hit him in the face. He frowned slightly and walked straight into the room.
Qian Yingjun was wearing a loose robe and walking barefoot on the soft carpet. He walked leisurely towards the couch. The maid serving him hurriedly brought him the hot tea that had been prepared.
He took a sip of tea and then asked slowly, "Go ahead."
Qian Yunqing looked serious and replied, "Master, the gold card has been purchased."
As he spoke, he took out three golden cards that shone brightly from his bosom and handed them forward.
Qian Yingjun took one and carefully examined the number on it, with a meaningful smile on his face. "The Wu family is really very skilled. They were able to produce such a limited edition gold note."
Qian Yingjun felt a dull pain in his heart when he thought about how his family had spent a full two thousand taels of silver on these gold invitations.
Although this amount was not a huge sum for him, it was indeed extremely luxurious to use it to buy such items.
"This golden scroll is truly worthy of its name, and its value is far greater than pure gold."
Qian Yingjun said with emotion.
"To prevent any accidents, I have arranged to purchase these three gold notes in different batches to ensure that we can accurately track the source of each shipment."
Qian Yunqing explained carefully and thoughtfully.
This is not to prevent precise operation, but to avoid unnecessary complications.
The more people involved, the greater the risk that secrets will be leaked.
In order to ensure the smooth implementation of the entire plan, we have to proceed step by step and be cautious.
"Well done."
Qian Yingjun nodded with satisfaction.
At this time, the woman in the inner room came out after tidying up her clothes. Although she was without makeup, her cheeks were flushed with joy. She was wearing a light gauze dress. Although her beauty was not fully revealed, her graceful figure that was looming added a bit of temptation.
Even Qian Yunqing, who was usually cold and taciturn, couldn't help but pause when he looked at the woman. A strange light flashed in his eyes, and then quickly looked away.
Qian Yingjun noticed Qian Yunqing's subtle change, turned his head to look at the woman who was approaching, and said to Qian Yunqing: "You have worked hard recently, let Mei'er serve you well, and you should relax for a while."
Then he instructed the woman, his tone full of unquestionable majesty: "Serve him well and make sure he is satisfied."
"Yes, Master."
Mei'er's voice was as thin as a mosquito, and her gentleness was mixed with a hint of imperceptible resentment.
