Chapter 98 - A new round of sugar-coated artillery shells

What Zhang Ye said was not wrong.

Fang's grandma's actions were indeed problematic.

According to how much she doted on her son.

At this moment, it was already impossible for her to vent her hatred by not killing him.

But not only did she not kill him, she even thanked him?

The problem behind this move was obvious.

Thinking about it, Mo Xiyan frowned and said with a heavy tone of voice, "Zhang Ye, be on your guard from now on."

Zhang Ye nodded, "I understand."

Fang's grandma was like a timed cannonball, ready to explode at any time.

If he hadn't been vigilant in advance, he might have really been blown to death by her.

When the Sang Nu heard this, he suddenly opened his mouth, "A Month isn't that kind of person who would scheme. Don't you think too much of your face?"

In fact, she herself did not have much confidence.

But based on her fixed understanding of the Fang's grandma, she had a nagging feeling that no matter what, she wouldn't do anything extreme.

After all, she had always been timid.

Perhaps, it was more accurate to say that she had been beaten to the point of losing all her courage.

However, she was not the kind of person who would easily thank others.

In Fang's grandma's eyes, everything her son and his son did was right.

Everything others do is wrong.

This idea has been entrenched.

She had tried to change her, but failed.

Could it be that she was really going to do something to Mo Xiyan this time?

I hope not.

Sang Nu sighed in her heart. If that was really the case, then she wouldn't be able to tolerate it.

"Granny, stop thinking too much. This is between Fang's grandma and I, you don't have to be unhappy because of me."

Mo Xiyan looked at Sang Nu, whose face was filled with worry and conflict, and said gently with a pained heart, "You and her have been good friends for many years, there's no need to break this relationship for me."

"You don't have to advise me. No one knows better than me what kind of person the A Month is."

Sang Nu shook her head, she pulled Mo Xiyan's right hand and patted him lightly, "Don't worry, I've met all the women in your life, and I can tell who's sincere and who's fake."

Saying that, she paused for a moment, then said, "If A Month really wants to do something to you, then you have to ask my wife if she agrees."

Mo Xiyan looked at Sang Nu with reddened eyes, "Thank you, your mother-in-law."

Other than the word 'thank you', she didn't know what else to say.

"Silly child, why do you need to thank your mother-in-law?"

The Sang Nu patted Mo Xiyan's hand lovingly, and looked at her with boundless benevolence.

Looks like, for her sake, she should go and have a good chat with A Month.

Just like what she had told Mo Xiyan before, if she really wanted to deal with her, she would be the first one to jump out.

Because Mo Qiu was just joking around, how could he compare to Mo Xiyan?

After making a decision, Sang Nu chatted with Mo Xiyan for a while before getting up to leave.

Mo Xiyan followed her and stood up, "I'll send you off."

"No need, just these few steps. I know her."

Sang Nu shook his head and rejected, "I heard from Zhang Ye that you're planning to open a shop recently. Adding to that the matter of Mo Qiu, it's already enough to trouble you, so there's no need to send me off."

"Just like you said, it wasn't even a few steps, I was just thinking of it as a walk."

"You child."

Seeing that she was adamant, Sang Nu did not reject her again and just held Mo Xiyan's hand as they left.

On the way to Sang Nu's house, she asked directly.

"I just heard from Zhang Ye that you're going to open a shop, and I haven't asked him what kind of shop you plan to open yet."

"I'm going to sell tea, because other than that, I don't have anything to show for it either."

Mo Xiyan laughed lightly, a little embarrassed. "If this old granny is going to laugh at me, I still don't know if I can open it."

"Does Granny think it's strange for me to do this?"

Seeing her like this, Mo Xiyan thought that she did not have the right to open such a shop.

In fact, she also felt that tea wasn't a good selling point.

But she really couldn't think of anything else.

Only now did she realize how exaggerated the rumors were that she had read about the female novel hosts from other worlds.

Yes, why would she say that?

This was because when she decided to open a refreshment shop, she had Zhang Ye do some research on the market.

The market survey is divided into three parts.

Firstly, there were a few types of shops that the people of Zhu Yue County used the most.

The second is what is the most popular shop in the county? What was her advantage?

The third was that the citizens' primary consumption rate was around 2 taels of silver per month.

When she had passed these questions to Zhang Ye, he had been stupefied for a long time.

However, Mo Xiyan was gratified that, even though he did not come to an understanding, she still managed to complete the investigation within a short span of a week.

Through this investigation, Mo Xiyan obtained this information.

In the Zhu Yue County, the five most frequented shops were the brothels, gambling houses, restaurants, rice shops and the salt shops opened by the officials.

Others, such as the medicine hall, were not as frequent as she had thought.

As for the second one, it could be imagined even with his knees. The most popular one was naturally the rice shop. After all, the common people ate like the heavens.

Naturally, the people would have to visit the rice shop every month.

The advantage, of course, was that they would die if they didn't eat it.

Who could compare to a brothel or gambling den like this?

When Mo Xiyan saw this report, she felt completely powerless.

How could he compete with them?

Firstly, she wouldn't do brothels or gambling tombs. Secondly, how could an outsider like her be allowed to interfere in such a monopolistic business?

However, this way, she really didn't know what she should open up, so she could slightly save some money.

Right, her goal at the start wasn't to earn money.

In order to confirm the project, she had specially gone to the Zhu Yue County and personally observed it.

In the end, she confirmed that she would be able to open a tea that was currently unavailable in the Zhu Yue County.

Yes, although there was a restaurant, there was no place that sold pastries.

This was all too easy on her.

So she made Zhang Ye build a shop at once, and then renovate it according to her thoughts.

Originally, she did not plan to tell Sang Nu everything.

After all, she didn't want them to worry about her, and was afraid that they would directly marry her.

What his master had said before was still fresh in his mind.

How could she not think about it?

Thus, when the Sang Nu heard her words, she became silent. Mo Xiyan subconsciously felt that she should not reveal herself in public as a girl.

However, she was wrong this time.

Sang Nu's silence was only because of the word 'tea'. It made her think of a skill that she had relied on to survive in the past.

It could be said that he had tasted every aspect of life.

As she thought of this, her eyes began to tear up and her eyes reddened. Two streams of clear tears flowed down her cheeks.

Just why was Sang Nu crying?

What in the world had provoked her in her words?

Mo Xiyan uncertainly lightly patted Sang Nu's shoulder, and asked in a small voice, "Sang Nu, what's wrong? Did I say something wrong? "

Her words brought Sang Nu back to reality.

"No, no."

She gently shook her head, looked at Mo Xiyan, and suddenly an impulse welled up from her heart, "Wiping away my face, I …"

"Master, Mo Zhengyang just came over, he said that he wanted you to visit the Fang's grandma."

Right at this moment, Zhang Ye ran over.

Mo Xiyan frowned, and muttered softly, "Could it be that something happened at Fang's grandma's place?"

"That may not be so. After all, Mo Qiu is gone."

Although her voice wasn't loud, Sang Nu could still hear her.

She also frowned, her heart full of worry.

"Xiyan, I'll go with you."

She raised her eyes to look at Mo Xiyan, and said straightforwardly, "I won't be at ease if I let you go alone."

Mo Xiyan nodded his head, "Actually you don't have to."

Although the Sang Nu was Fang's grandma's friend.

However, it was precisely because she was his friend that she shouldn't have done such a thing.

"No, it's useful. You should listen to me on this matter."

Sang Nu grabbed her hand, and walked towards Zhang Ye, "I know A Month too well, no one will listen to his words."

At this point, she paused for a moment before sighing and continued, "If I were to go, I might be able to say a few words for you."

Sang Nu was indeed very thoughtful.

Although Mo Xiyan knew that if she were to go, the benefits would outweigh the drawbacks.

But she really did not want Sang Nu to lose a friend because of her.

But now that Sang Nu was so insistent, if she said no, it was just too much of an injury.

Thinking of this, Mo Xiyan chose to be obedient.

At this time, Zhang Ye coincidentally walked in front of them.

Mo Xiyan immediately asked, "Did Mo Zhengyang say what it was about?"

Zhang Ye shook his head, "I didn't say anything, I just said I wanted Master to go over."

Could it be that the Fang's grandma had requested for something?

Or could it be that her strange attitude had made it difficult for Li Zheng?

All along the way, Mo Xiyan was deep in thought.

Of course, she wasn't the only one.

The same went for Sang Nu and Zhang Ye.

They were mainly worried that the Fang's grandma would harm Mo Xiyan.

However, what they didn't expect was that when they arrived at Fang's grandma's place, what awaited them wasn't Fang's grandma's anger, nor was it her accusation. Instead, it was a new round of sugar-coated artillery shells …
