Chapter 67: Better Not To Bump Into
"Murong Mansion... Dahe Qianzhuang..." Xue Lengyu furrowed his brow, a hint of sigh in his voice: "Is it Murong Haoran's?"
"Yes." Xiao An said: "The Murong family is the richest in the city, and there are many wine shops and stores in the city that are owned by the Murong estate. So, a shop like Qianzhuang that makes a lot of money and requires capital, the Murong family would naturally not be willing to let others take it over. Moreover, Young Master Murong has a very good relationship with our King Shu, so no one else dares to intervene."
The gloomy soul won't disperse, the gloomy soul won't disperse. Xue Lengyu's heart was annoyed, but she couldn't say it clearly, nor could she say that she didn't want this silver note anymore. However, thinking again, Mu Rong Haoxuan was indeed the owner of that money house, but as a young master from such a noble family, where would he have the time and energy to sit in the store every day? The probability of running into him at the money house to exchange money might be higher than her being struck by lightning and crossing over.
With that thought, Xue Lengyu felt a bit more at ease in her heart. She went into the house and took out a silver note, as well as the list of materials needed to make face masks that she had written herself. Coming out, she said to Xiao An: "Let's go then, try to come back early."
"Yes." Xiao An hastily followed Xue Lengyu's footsteps. Originally, she thought that Shu Li liked gentle and elegant women, but unexpectedly, when it came to doing things, she was swift and decisive, even her walking pace was faster than ordinary women.
Out of Shimomen Village, they headed to the market town. Xue Lengyu had something on her mind and couldn't help but quicken her pace. Xiao An was someone who was used to doing things in a straightforward manner, so her footsteps were naturally not slow either. Before long, the two arrived at the bustling street district.
Although he knew it would seem strange, Xue Lengyu couldn't help but ask: "Xiao An, where is the Dahai Money House?"
Xiao An was taken aback: "Miss Xue, you don't even know about Da He Qian Zhuang, such a famous place?"
Xue Lengyu was somewhat evasive: "That... I don't often go out on the streets and haven't paid attention to these things."
Xiao An was not very satisfied with Xue Leng Yu's answer, but having stayed in the Wang Fu for a long time, she understood what should be asked and what shouldn't.
"Dahe Money House is just next to the Murong Mansion." Xiao An said, "Because Dahe Money House is a key industry of the Murong Mansion, generally speaking, Young Master Murong is usually in the money house during the day. The Murong Mansion is also located in a luxurious area, so it's simply opened on the side of their own mansion."
Murong Xi nodded slightly, his face looking a bit unsightly. So it seemed that he had to meet Murong Haoran after all?
Xue Lengyu's face was solemn, and Xiao An couldn't help but say: "Miss Xue, you don't even know where the Murong Manor is, do you?"
Murong Mansion, Shu Wang Fu, Yan Wang Fu, and the Imperial Palace. These are iconic buildings in the city, and it's unthinkable that someone who has lived here for over a decade wouldn't know them.
Murong Xi sneered, "The Murong Estate is wealthy and arrogant, its reputation far-reaching. I naturally know that. But... you say someone as important as Young Master Murong, who is usually so busy, would stay in the money house all day?"
Xiao An didn't understand the meaning of Xue Leng Yu's words, so he honestly said: "Most of the time he is, but this morning I and Xiao Tao saw Murong Gongzi's carriage leaving the city on the road, so he shouldn't be here today."
Xue Lengyu let out a long sigh and suddenly felt that the sky had cleared up, flowers had bloomed, and her life wasn't as bitter as she thought.
I'm really busy today and I'm exhausted, so I'll just update a little more. Please forgive me, everyone. On the weekends, I'll still update 2-3 times a day.
