Chapter 231: The Special Guest of Thousand-Jiao Pavilion

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Su Yingxue raised her eyebrows. “What kind of guest is it that made Sister Jinyan so nervous?”

“I guess that she is Su Yurou’s mother, the woman that the Marquis kept outside, Liu Shulan.”

Wu Jinyan’s eyes were filled with deep meaning.

“How do you know?” Su Yingxue frowned. In her previous life, she didn’t meet Liu Shulan many times.

The first time was when she was a child, and she saw her father and Liu Shulan meeting secretly. She only remembered that the woman had a gentle temperament and was very good at coaxing people.

However, with her grandfather around, she hadn’t been able to enter the Marquis’s Manor for many years.

Therefore, the last time she saw her was before her death. She accompanied Su Yurou to see her in destitution.

At that time, she had been reduced to nothing and was already tortured beyond recognition. Every time Su Yurou saw her, she would add new injuries to her and torture her.

However, Liu Shulan didn’t give off that domineering vibe. Her eyes were pitiful and full of compassion, something Su Yingxue never understood until she died.

Many things were clear in front of her eyes after her rebirth.

At that time, Liu Shulan pitied her because she was too foolish, foolish to the point of no return!

As for compassion…

Perhaps it was because she felt that even though she hadn’t entered the Marquis’s Manor for so many years, what she received was something Su Yingxue had never seen in her entire life.

Wu Jinyan said in detail, “She was dressed in a reserved and luxurious manner. Moreover, as soon as she entered the shop, she subtly mentioned my name. Naturally, I would personally entertain her.”

“She seemed to be chatting about her daily life, but the topic was always about the Marquis’s Manor and you. She even used your brother’s matter to tease me. Later, she bought several thousand taels worth of items, and 1 ordered the shopkeeper to register her address, saying that we would regularly send her fashionable fabrics. That address was Yaoguang Garden. 1 sent people to investigate and they witnessed Marquis entering.”

Su Yingxue smiled and nodded. “Sister Jinyan is very thoughtful.”

If it wasn’t for the fact that Wu Jinyan was such a meticulous person, she probably wouldn’t have noticed it so easily.

“It’s not that I’m thoughtful. 1 always feel that she intentionally let me notice, then used my mouth to convey the message to you.” Wu Jinyan frowned slightly. This was what she was worried about.

She grew up in a tough environment, so she was meticulous and observed people.

This Liu Shulan was much more difficult to deal with than the Minister’s Estate’s Madam Wu.

“Sister Wu, how did you know?” Lin Sisi listened for a long time, her small face filled with confusion.

Wu Jinyan looked at the innocence in her eyes and felt that it was rare. She pursed her lips and smiled. “It’s probably a woman’s intuition.”

There were many things that Su Yingxue could immediately understand.

But Lin Sisi was different.

“Sister Jinyan was originally a pearl covered in dust. Now that the Wu family is gone, she naturally doesn’t have to conceal herself and can shine brightly.” Su Yingxue pinched Lin Sisi’s face.

“Yes, now that the Wu family is gone. Sister Jinyan, will you be sad?” Lin Sisi blurted out.

Su Yingxue wanted to cover her mouth, but she was too slow.

Wu Jinyan lowered her head, and a hint of dimness crossed her eyes, but quickly, they regained their initial brightness. “Many years ago, I raised myself. The honor and disgrace of the Wu family had nothing to do with me. Now, what concerns me is only the Thousand-Jiao Pavilion. 1 only need to manage it with dedication and do what I want to do.”

Wu Jinyan came today and even brought the account book over for Su Yingxue to take a look.

Su Yingxue had spent a lot of money investing in Thousand-Jiao Pavilion. Although she managed it, most of the final income was meant for Su Yingxue.

Su Yingxue looked at the account book, raised her pen, and changed the profit-sharing ratio written by Wu Jinyan from nine to one to an equal split of five to five..
