Chapter 826 We Can't Let You Go Upstairs

    

d realized that this wasn't Jingxiu letting someone help take care of her, it was Chunlan!How is she sitting at the foot of the mountain.As the group of people walked down the mountain, Chunlan had al...Fang Jinxiu watched Jing Wang's departing figure, pondered for a moment, and suddenly beckoned to Chang He.

Has Wang Ma found out who it was

Chang He nodded.

"Sister Jinxiu, you guessed it right. Those strong men were taken away by the government and then bailed out soon after."

"The one who should be protecting them must be that Wang's mother."

I followed her all the way back and saw with my own eyes that she entered the Marquis's mansion.

She was a close confidante to the wife of the Minister of Rites and also her wet nurse.

Well met, Lady Zong.

If that woman is the mistress of a family, then what is her mother-in-law

"Absolutely ridiculous."

Fang Jinshu was a little angry. Originally, she didn't plan to do anything before becoming a fully-fledged royal merchant.

But that high-ranking official's daughter had taken over her mother-in-law's position, just hearing it made her feel sick.

Besides, they were the ones who came to provoke her in the first place. If she didn't retaliate a little, she wouldn't be Fang Jinshu.

"Find an opportunity to pass a message to that fool from the Jia family, telling him I will be visiting Baibaolu alone tomorrow."

A sudden shock ran through his heart.

"Madam, aren't you sending sheep into the mouth of a tiger"

That Wang's mother must have been acting on the orders of Madam Zong to forcibly abduct the mistress. She must be doing this for her son.

If Zong Taimu knew that his wife was alone, it would be dangerous.

Fang Jinshi smiled, "I won't be in any danger."

"You can safely pass the message on."

"Only Zong Taiwu needs to know."

Chang He frowned, he should trust his wife.

Moreover, with the mistress's abilities, Zong Taiwu that incompetent fool would only be played like a puppet.

"Yes, I'll go take care of the Chang He right away."

Chang He was very efficient. In less than half a day, Zong Tai Wu's servant arrived excitedly at his master's side with the news.

For the past few days, Zong Taiwu's father has been confined to their home. He was told to cultivate his moral character and improve himself so that he wouldn't cause any more trouble before the emperor's birthday banquet. This would prevent the court officials from making fun of him again.

Of course, they wouldn't dare to openly mock him.

But behind the scenes, Zong Pingchuan was often ostracized by his colleagues.

Although he had Grand Tutor Yuan backing him, and hundreds of officials in the court, not everyone supported Grand Tutor Yuan.

Everyone knows exactly how Zong Pingchuan got to where he is today. Furthermore, given his humble beginnings, there are naturally many people who look down on him.

"Second Young Master, this news is absolutely true!"

Zong Taimu has been truly idle at home these days, and the more bored he gets, the more Fang Jinshu's cold and beautiful face pops into his mind.

The more you can't get, the more you itch.

Mother said she would handle this matter, and based on her mother's usual way of doing things, Zongtai had been waiting, waiting for the moment his mother delivered the beauty into his hands.

Otherwise, he couldn't really be so obedient to stay at home for several days.

But now, hearing the news brought back by the little servant, he couldn't help but furrow his brow.

"Strange, Mother hasn't made a move yet"

"This little minx still has time to go shopping for jewelry."

"She's really going alone"

"Where did you get this message from"

The maidservant nodded hurriedly, "It's true. I heard it from a maid serving the widow. The maid mentioned it while chatting with someone while buying things, but she didn't know that the shop she was buying things from belonged to our Master's Mansion."

"Didn't you tell me to keep an eye on the widow's house As soon as I heard the news, I came to report it to you."

If the widow is left alone, Second Young Master could directly bring her home, there wouldn't be a problem.

This time, no one will come to her rescue again.

Just so happens, Zongtai Wu thought the same thing.

He couldn't wait for his mother to make a move. With such a good opportunity, he had to take action himself.

Little beauty, hehe.

Zong Taiwu rubbed his hands together, instantly feeling energized.

"Come on! Let's go keep the little beauty company."

Treasure Pavilion is the largest jewelry store in the capital city, with a total of seven floors. Each floor features jewelry representing different price ranges.

The top three floors usually only receive the wives of dignitaries and officials. Ordinary people are not allowed to go up.

Fang Jinshi stood at the entrance of the third floor. She had gone through all the jewelry on the lower three floors and found nothing special. Most were silver, and the most valuable ones were those wrapped with gold thread or plated in gold.

The jade jewelry is mostly of average quality, with only a couple of pieces that have outstanding carvings and are exorbitantly priced.

...are definitely not affordable for the average person.

Even if Fang Jinshu was out fishing today, she wouldn't want to lower herself by buying these cheap jewelry back. She even gave them to Xiaoyue and the others and they found it ugly.

The people at Baibao Lou were also very opportunistic. When they learned that Fang Jinshu was just an ordinary civilian and a widow, their faces instantly changed.

"Don't you understand human language"

"I'm sorry, but the upper floor is reserved for distinguished guests. As you are neither a member of nobility nor accompanied by someone of high rank, we cannot allow you to proceed upstairs."

Besides, even if I let you go upstairs, you probably can't afford the jewelry up there. Why bother humiliating yourselfd her son were in the house.That child was strange, always staying away from Hu Ailan. He would only come over if Hu Ailan forcefully pulled him.They call each other mother and son, but they don't loo...
