Chapter 801: When Did You Become a Widow?
taels of silverin his pocket. He hummed a little tune, a bottle of winein one hand and two packages of fragrant roasted chicken in the other, looking very happy indeed.He was caught red-handed as soon...Fang Jinshiu's residence in the capital was prepared by Fu Ming. The location of the house was quite good. Changhe directed his men to move things in, so basically just bring your luggage and you can move in.
Yulian held the jade pendant as she stepped out of the carriage. Fang Jinshu glanced at the veil in her hand, hesitated for a moment before setting it down.
With Xiaoyue's support, she supported her stunning face, slowly descending from the carriage amidst the gasping crowd.
"This lady is too beautiful."
"Who is she, the mistress of this house And where is her husband Could she be a widow"
Fang Jinshu had good hearing. When she heard the word "widow," she not only didn't get angry, but also glanced at the person.
The man noticed Fang Jinshu's gaze and his face flushed instantly.
The onlookers woman rolled her eyes, these stinky men are such pigs when they see a pretty woman.
"What if the master of the house is right here You men are just hoping that these beautiful ladies don't have husbands, so you can take advantage of them, aren't you!"
Women have always been sympathetic to the weak, and Fang Jinshu is exceptionally beautiful.
Seeing the two children standing beside her, each more adorable and handsome than the last, who could bear to slander this mother and her high-value kids
"Come on, at least try to act like decent people."
Fang Jinshu suddenly curled her lips, her voice coming softly.
There is no husband in the house.
She purposely wore a sorrowful expression, and let out a deep sigh as if she had thousands of grievances to tell, but ultimately swallowed them all back.
Seeing the people around him, their hearts sank.
The men thought, "What a pity! Such a beauty has no husband!"
The women thought to themselves, “How pitiful the mistress is! So young and beautiful, yet she has lost her husband.”
In short, Fang Jinshi's veiled words, though suggestive yet ambiguous, effectively spread the rumor of her widowhood throughout the capital.
She is beautiful, rich, and a widow.
The young masters of the capital city were unable to contain their excitement and eagerness. They desperately sought ways to find out more, trying every means to uncover information about Fang Jinshu, hoping to get acquainted with her.
Another day passed, and the rumors morphed into tales of the Jade Blossom Garden's mysterious backer being a stunning widow.
Those who came to seek business deals with Fang Jinshu lined up to offer her gifts and deliver letters.
This also includes the second son of the Zong Shilang family, Zong Taiwu.
Fang Jinshui had never seen anything like it. The mastermind behind the whole commotion was now leisurely enjoying breakfast tea in the gazebo of her new house, with Xiaoyue and Changhe standing on either side of her.
"Madam, today's invitations have doubled."
"I've screened out some unimportant ones, many of whom came to our farm for business. Shall we arrange a time to meet them"
"If you don't want to meet, the Long River can go for you."
Long He thought, after all, his wife was a woman. Seeing so many men would inevitably be inconvenient for her.
When you reach the capital, you have to consider your reputation.
"It's not that I don't want to see you, it's just not the right time yet."
"It's fine, let them wait for a bit."
She turned her head to look at Xiaoyue, "How is the banquet preparation going"
Xiaoyue said, "Although it was a bit rushed, Master Fu also sent people to help a lot. The banquet will be held on time."
"That's good," Fang Jinshu nodded.
"According to my orders, send some of the fruits and vegetables we brought to all the houses of officials in the capital who are rank three and below."
"Just a little something from Jinxiu Garden."
"The invitation to the banquet has also been sent."
Chang He hesitated for a moment and asked, "Will these officials come to our banquet"
Fang Jinshu wasn't worried at all. "The people prioritize food above all else, and officials have to eat too, right They've been purchasing our Jinshu Farm's produce from Xizhou for a long time now. Even if they're embarrassed to come themselves, they'll send someone else."
"Understood, madam. Young Master Fu has arrived."
Upon seeing Fu Ming, Fang Jinshi wiped her mouth and stood up.
"Good morning, Master Fu. Have you eaten Would you like to have some here"
After more than two years, Fu Ming paused slightly when he saw Fang Jinxiu up close.
Her beauty, Fu Ming had already witnessed when they were in Mùzhōu.
After giving birth, Fang Jinxiu's already exquisite eyebrows and eyes gained an extra touch of maturity, a unique charm that only a woman possesses. It made people's hearts race.
"These days, your rumors are everywhere in the capital."
"It seems that Zongyu hasn't received news of your death in battle yet. When will you become a widow"
If only she were a widow.
Such a woman, who wouldn't want her in their arms!
Fu Ming's aura was even more mature than three years ago. After Fang Jinxiu learned his true identity, she had long put away the casualness she had before.
She bowed deeply to the man standing before her.
"A common woman has met the Seventh Prince."neyZongyu felt a mixture of relief and amusement."Master Su, please wait a moment."Fang Jinxiu was about to put Bai Lingzhi away, but Zong Yu changed his grip from holding her wrist to restraining her...
