Daiyu from the Red Mansion is also arguing with people today

Chapter 231 Eliminating the Two Giants

Daiyu sipped the honey water. What she didn't tell Xichun was that she had already reached a cooperation agreement with Yueqingzhai - to provide them with a batch of pigments every month.

As for how much they sell, that is their ability and has nothing to do with Daiyu.

Just like her collaboration with Fang Shuntai, she provides them with three pieces of cloth every month.

Each piece of cloth could be sold for anywhere from one thousand to three thousand taels, depending on its rarity and the materials used. Fang Shuntai would earn more with these scarce cloths, and his position in the capital would become more and more stable.

As long as the young master of the Fang family does not have a mental problem and does not do something to destroy his future, his position in the Fang family will not be shaken.

The route from the capital to Yangzhou of the Dai's Escort Agency has been opened, and it will be more convenient to transport goods from Jiangnan to the capital in the future. Later, Daiyu's explanation that the cloth was transported from Jiangnan was more convincing.

Thinking about the information sent by Fang Shuntai from the warehouse, Daiyu's smile became even brighter.

Even if the weaving methods were all in the hands of the old masters from the major weaving families, she could send people to learn them secretly and then compile them into a book.

Isn’t this another huge amount of points!

Daiyu once tried every means to repay those who shared the same interests with her, and now this opportunity has come!

111: Host, your thoughts are very dangerous!

The three maids gathered together to look at Xichun's paint and were discussing it happily. At this moment, Bai Shao came in with two little maids and a woman.

They noticed Bai Shao bringing people in and looked over curiously.

Noticing the girls' inquiring looks, Bai Shao explained, "Girls, these three were sent by Madam Xing. She said it's not good for the second young lady to always use the young lady's maids, so she asked Madam Lian to find two reliable maids for the second young lady. This old woman was sent here to learn how to cook from the cook in our small kitchen."

Daiyu looked the three of them up and down. From their appearance, there was nothing wrong with them, and their eyes were clear and honest.

So she nodded and signaled Bai Shao to go and make the arrangements.

The three of them were to be handed over to Nanny Wang for instruction. If anything went wrong, Daiyu would definitely tell Wang Xifeng and then kick her out.

Facing the puzzled looks from her sisters, Yingchun said calmly, "Siqi has been sent back to get married, and Sister Feng took pity on my wet nurse, who is old, and sent her back to live with her as well."

Her tone was calm, as if she was talking about something that had nothing to do with her.

Xichun and Shi Xiangyun listened with confused looks on their faces. They obviously didn't quite understand Yingchun's way of handling the matter, but they still kept it in mind and planned to arrange their maids in the same way in the future.

Tanchun, on the other hand, looked thoughtful. When the two younger ones went to watch the new cook cook, she finally asked about her doubts.

"Did Siqi and my sister's wet nurse commit any mistake?"

Yingchun felt that there was nothing to hide, so she spoke directly: "My nanny was playing with money in the yard and was caught by my mother, along with Sister Liu's sister from the kitchen.

Sister Liu's sister was a member of the family, so mother naturally could not dispose of her at will. But my wet nurse was different, after all, she was a member of my family, so mother sent someone to ask for my opinion.

I thought I should give her some respect and let her pack up and go home."

After hearing this, Tanchun nodded and lowered her head slightly, as if thinking about something.

Seeing her like this, Daiyu knew that she was smart and could not help but remind her: "I can only protect you for a while. Even if Sister Yingchun is here, you still have to rely on yourself."

Tanchun raised her head, her eyes sparkling with tears. She threw herself on Daiyu and whispered in her ear, "Thank you, cousin!"

"If she really bullies you, just come to Lixiangyuan, and Madam Liao will stay."

When Tanchun heard that Madam Liao would stay, she felt as if she had found a backer and no longer worried about the future: "Really? Madam Liao is not leaving?"

"Yes, Madam Liao will stay to guard the yard."

Compared with the serious Madam Gu and Madam Wang, who they rarely interacted with, Tanchun and Xichun were actually closer to Madam Liao. As Madam Gu's subordinate, Madam Liao also had a rank in the palace, so it was more than enough for her to suppress Aunt Zhao.

"I will go and tell them the good news now!" Tanchun stood up happily and "flew" out happily like a colorful butterfly.

Daiyu looked at Tanchun's back and gave Yingchun a wry smile: "It seems that I am not as popular as Madam Liao."

Yingchun took a sip of the honey water and did not believe Daiyu's pity: "Isn't this exactly what you want? Do you want the three little ones to hug you and cry? It's not like you won't come back. The future battle will definitely be in Shenjing City."

The light in Yingchun's eyes flickered, making it hard to tell what she was thinking.

Thinking about the inside story revealed by Yingchun before, Daiyu remembered that among the three giants at the beginning there were also Lin Zhixiao's two aunts-in-law.

"How come we only caught two of the leaders who started the game? Where's the other one?"

Yingchun lowered her eyelids and said, "When I went to catch them, I didn't see any maids or servants who were close to Lin Zhixiao's family."

It sounds like there is a lot of hidden secrets in this, so Daiyu asked, "Did someone leak Mrs. Xing's actions?"

"Who knows? It's possible that Lin Zhixiao and his wife are being cautious and guessed it themselves."

Daiyu was extremely grateful at this time. She had not tried to get Xiaohong to be with her because she was worried that Xiaohong would have too deep roots in the Jia family.

At the moment, this seems to be a wise move. Otherwise, if Xiaohong is really kept by his side, with her shrewd personality, I am afraid that Lin Zhixiao and his wife will know everything about her.

Daiyu and Yingchun looked at each other and patted their chests with lingering fear.

At night, Yingchun quietly went out again, and when she came back, she brought good news - Wang Tingyu agreed to help Daiyu get the secret medicine for conceiving a child, and she didn't need to take any dividends as collateral, she just needed to give him a portion of the medicine as a reward.

Daiyu thought about it and realized that Aunt Xu already had two sons and a daughter, so there was no need for her to take this kind of fertility medicine.

"Who does your young master want to give this medicine to?"

"I asked for it for our great aunt. I just received news that she gave birth to her first daughter."

“Tsk, tsk, tsk.” Daiyu sighed and shook her head, “I remember his sister just got married, and she gave birth to a child so soon. It’s really cruel!”

Yingchun also sighed, "That's right, and she married into the Meng family of Jining. Although they are not as prominent as the Kong family, they are also a noble family, so the pressure is not small."

"Okay! I'll have someone prepare the medicine tomorrow, and I'll give you three bottles: one for consignment, one for your son to try, and one for your aunt."

Yingchun held Daiyu's hands gratefully and said, "Thank you!"

"Don't just talk, come and massage my shoulders!" Daiyu joked with a smile.
