Chapter 625 Madman
"My lady, this servant is useless."
Qin Xin's voice dropped, her expression dejected: "I didn't overhear what the Madam was going to do to you, I only knew she wanted to harm you."
If she failed to find out the most crucial things, it would mean that her master would not be able to prepare in advance and might suffer a great loss, so she was very uneasy.
Shen Wantang smiled at her soothingly, "It's okay. You're not a god, so how could you possibly hear everything? My stepmother has suffered a lot in the past, and she's become much more shrewd recently. She's already wary of me."
Qin Xin twisted her fingers, "Miss, what should we do? If we just wait for them to make a move, wouldn't that be too passive? Otherwise, why don't you sell Hua Yi? Keep her by your side as a thug. You can use both kindness and force, and you won't have to worry about her being disloyal."
Shen Wantang shook her head: "Hua Yi must be sold. She can't stay with me."
Huayi is too restless. She has a strong desire to climb up. Moreover, what happened in her previous life has been verified. Once Huayi climbs up, she will immediately turn her back on everyone.
In her previous life, she believed that she had done her best for Huayi and even helped her to the position with her own hands. Unfortunately, after Huayi was favored by Xiao Qingyuan, her first reaction was not to be grateful to her, but to want to step on her.
"However, the lack of artistic conception doesn't mean I can't protect myself. Sometimes, protecting yourself doesn't necessarily require force."
Shen Wantang said, pointing to his head: "We can also rely on wisdom."
Qin Xin had already experienced her intelligence, and seeing her so calm and confident, her uneasy heart miraculously calmed down.
But she was a person who could not sit still: "Then I will go out and take a look, maybe I can find some clues!"
Shen Wantang nodded and agreed.
She never restricts Qin Xin. Special talents should have more flexible management methods.
However, after the whole day, Qin Xin didn't gain anything.
On the contrary, Shen Wantang received a silver note worth one thousand taels as soon as it got dark.
It was Liu Nanshi who asked Tian Pozi to send it to her. She was reluctant to give up such a useful painting idea, so she bought it directly.
Shen Wantang took the banknote and immediately gave Huayi's indenture to Tian Pozi, asking Tian Pozi to take the person away.
After Huayi left, Du Juan was shocked and impressed. She said, "Miss, how did you know Miss Liu would really be willing to spend a thousand taels to buy Huayi? I thought she would give up! After all, her yard was just robbed, and Qin Xin said she lost a lot of treasures!"
"Because for others, one thousand taels of silver is an astronomical figure, but for the Ge Lao Mansion, it's nothing. Even if Liu Nanshi was robbed of everything, she could still ask Madam Liu for another thousand taels, ten thousand taels, or even more. One thousand taels to buy a maid who can protect her is worth it to her."
Du Juan was even more impressed: "Young lady, you are really smart! We will make a fortune this time!"
Shen Wantang was delighted to receive the banknote. She had indeed made a small fortune, a windfall indeed. Now her shop would be able to operate smoothly, and she and her cousin wouldn't have to borrow money from the bank.
However, she was able to predict that Liu Nanshi was willing to pay one thousand taels to buy the painting, which was not entirely a miracle.
Most importantly, she knew that Liu Nanshi was reborn.
Shen Wantang herself has been reborn twice, and she understands better than anyone the subtle mentality after being reborn - money is just a number.
If you die, you lose everything. Now that you are back alive, you can spend your money as you please without feeling any regret. You may even feel that if you don’t spend a lot of money after being reborn, you will be letting yourself down.
Shen Wantang deliberately set the amount at one thousand taels, which was neither too large nor too small. If the amount was too small, she would suffer a loss. If the amount was too large, Liu Nanshi would feel that she was being cheated and might not buy the painting out of spite.
And now, she not only got a large sum of money, but also solved the big trouble of Huayi, it was simply killing two birds with one stone!
Since she had become a little rich, Shen Wantang was not stingy and rewarded all the maids, even the gold and silver that Gu Qianhan had given her.
That night, she slept particularly soundly.
Just as she fell asleep, the back door of the Shen Mansion quietly opened.
Qi wore a veil on her head and walked out with her personal nanny.
They got on the carriage and drove all the way to the end of a dark alley before stopping.
A burly figure came over and said in a frivolous tone, "Madam, you're finally here. I missed you so much!"
As he spoke, he got into the carriage.
Nanny Yin immediately blocked him for Qi: "Wei Dazhang, who allowed you to come up here? Get down!"
Qi said softly, "Madam, it's okay. Just let him come up. I still have something to say to him!"
Nanny Yin had no choice but to let the person in.
Wei Dazhang chuckled, got into the carriage, and his rough big hands touched Qi's waist directly.
Qi held him down, took out a piece of paper from her bosom and handed it to Wei Dazhang.
Wei Dazhang was stunned: "What is this?"
"This is a portrait of that little bitch. Take a closer look at her and memorize her appearance so you don't mistake her for someone else."
Wei Dazhang sneered, "It's not like I haven't seen your concubine's daughter before, how could I have mistaken her? I don't need this at all! However, I never expected that you, as her legitimate mother, appear to be generous and virtuous on the surface, but are so cruel and ruthless behind the scenes, even giving the young lady in the mansion to me to play with."
Qi snorted coldly, "I have no choice but to do this! If I really let her marry into the Duke's Mansion, Xuan'er and I will have no place to stand in the future. We will be bullied and oppressed by her for the rest of our lives! If you don't want to do this kind of thing, tell me as soon as possible so that I can find someone else!"
"Oh, why are you so angry? Where did I say I don't want to? I want to, I want to be more willing than ever! When I say you're ruthless, I'm not mocking you, I'm praising you. I like people who are ruthless because I'm just as ruthless!"
After hearing what he said, Qi's expression looked better.
She has no one available at the moment, and if she asks someone else to do this, there is a risk of exposing her. But this Wei Dazhang himself is a scoundrel and a notorious lecher, and they have another relationship, so using him is safe.
Qi placed her hand on Wei Dazhang's chest. Wei Dazhang's character was not very good, but his figure was first-class.
He was muscular, a dozen years younger than Shen Guannian, and full of energy. Whenever they met, he could always make Qi blush and her heart beat fast, making her unable to extricate herself.
"As long as you can get that little bitch's body, I can convince the master to marry her to you. That little bitch has a face like a foxy girl, and her figure is also first-class. Marrying her to you is a bargain for you. So, you have to be careful about this matter. If you miss this opportunity, you will never get it again!"
