Jiang Ning was focused on the business of the silk shop and had no time to think about other things. If Jiang Mengyue didn't mess with her, she would naturally not pay too much attention.
Jin Weilan knew that she was paying attention to the news about the Cloud brocade cloth, so she went to supervise it personally and asked people from the silk store to transport it as soon as possible.
Things went smoothly, and Cloud brocade cloths were delivered to the capital.
Jiang Ning dropped the stone in her heart.
While getting the good news, trouble came.
Xu Yuanqing paid a visit.
..........
"Xu Yuanqing..." The moment he heard the news, Jiang Ning's face turned cold, and she clenched her fists, and her nails almost pierced into her flesh.
When she recalled this man who had tortured her for several years in her previous life, she felt a sharp pain. The pain was imprinted in her bones and she couldn't help but tremble.
Chun Lan saw something wrong with her face and asked, "Miss, what's wrong?"
Jiang Ning bit the tip of her tongue. The pain brought her back to consciousness, but her face was still ugly.
I didn't expect to see the enemy from my previous life so soon...
Xu Yuanqing's ferocious face seemed to still be echoing in front of her eyes. As long as she closed her eyes, she could recall his curses.
"Miss?" Chunlan felt worried. The lady's face was ugly, and thin cold sweat broke out on her forehead. Was she sick?
Jiang Ning took a deep breath, suppressed the thoughts in her mind, and said, "Nothing, just go on."
Chun Lan continued, "This Mr. Xu comes from a poor family, but he works very hard. When the master went to the Village, he met Mr. Xu by chance and gave him a sum of money."
"Mr. Xu relied on the money given by the master to become a scholar. He was concerned about this and came to the Capital to express his gratitude to the master."
Jiang Ning's eyes flashed with sarcasm.
Hard work?
Hey, if this person could have one-tenth of his superficial pretense, he wouldn't be that kind of scumbag!
He came to the Capital this time not to express his gratitude, but to steal a sum of money from the Marquis Mansion.
She can't let him succeed this time. She must take off his hypocritical face and let the world take a good look at what kind of person he is.
Especially he must not be allowed to deceive her mother.
Jiang Ning's face was frosty, and a coldness flashed in her eyes.
"Oh! I keep talking about Mr. Xu!" Chun Lan seemed to remember something and said quickly, "Madam asked this servant to call the young lady over..."
"Mother?"
Jiang Ning's expression returned to normal. Xu Yuanqing's thing can be done slowly, she is not in a hurry.
Jiang Ning walked out of Ning'an Courtyard and walked toward her mother's yard.
While walking through the garden, she bumped into Jiang Mengyue.
Jiang Mengyue also saw her, her face paused, and then she smiled gently, "Sister, are you going to Mother's yard? Me too, let's go together."
Jiang Mengyue pretended to be a good sister.
Jiang Ning didn't want to expose her. She walked over with a smile and took her hand, "That's good."
To others, they looked like close sisters.
Disgust flashed in Jiang Mengyue's eyes, but she hid it very well, "What has my sister been up to these days? Why don't you talk to me? Didn't you say you wanted to sit in my yard?"
"Ms. Jin has invited me out to tour the Capital these days."
Jiang Ning didn't hide it, she just told it like it was. Jiang Mengyue and Jin Weilan didn't want to deal with it, so she didn't mind causing a problem for Jiang Mengyue.
She smiled and said, "The streets in the capital are really bustling, and there is a lot of jewelry and clothes..."
Jiang Mengyue's face froze. She hated Jin Weilan very much, but Jiang Ning mixed up with that woman, which made her even more annoyed.
"If sister wants to visit the capital, I'll take you out. There's no need to trouble others."
"It's not troublesome. Miss Jin is a kind-hearted person, and she likes me very much. She said she would take me to the mountains to view flowers if she had the opportunity." Jiang Ning smiled, "My mother also said that she would like me to be friends with Miss Jin."
Everything Jiang Mengyue wanted to say was blocked. She didn't know whether the person in front of her was naive or deliberately adding to the problem.
The two of them didn't talk anymore and walked towards Lin's yard.
Halfway through, I saw a man's figure.
The man was wearing a long green coat, looking left and right at the beautifully decorated garden of the Marquis Mansion, with greed flashing in his eyes.
He noticed the footsteps and looked over. When he saw Jiang Ning, his eyes lit up.
Jiang Ning also saw him, and the moment she saw his figure, her face turned cold.
It's Xu Yuanqing.
