The shopkeeper nodded: "Mr. Wen returned to Jincheng years ago. I used to work in the hands of Mr. Nan. Now I am fully in charge of this shop. The freight is transported by water, and the merchant ships of the Bai family and the Rong family."
When Mo Lingwei heard this, she took out the hidden envelope and handed it to the shopkeeper: "Trouble shopkeeper, next time someone will deliver the goods, take this letter to Jincheng and hand it to my sister-in-law."
She sighed, "I was lucky enough to receive a reply from Jincheng in the past, but it has been a long time since I received a single word from Jincheng. I wonder if you have heard of the situation on Jincheng's side?"
The shopkeeper took the letter and locked it together with the valuables in the cabinet, "I heard that after the Mohist army defeated the Si family, they also won the few battles with the Feng family, and now they are confronting the Gong family army... ..."
"The Gong family..." Mo Lingwei murmured in a low voice, "No wonder..."
Mo Lingwei picked up the teacup and took a sip, then asked, "Is the business going well?"
"Ever since we found out that the people behind our store are the young masters of the Feng family and the young masters of the He family, there have been fewer people looking for faults. It's just that a young lady came to the store every day and sat there all afternoon without buying anything. , just drink tea and some snacks and leave..."
Mo Lingwei was surprised: "Which lady?"
Through the screen carved with hollow patterns, Mo Lingwei looked out.
At the end of the shop, there are a few seats, which are specially for customers to rest their feet when they are tired from shopping. At this time, a familiar figure is sitting.
Mo Lingwei recognized it at a glance, it was He Jingxian, the second young lady of the He family.
Mo Lingwei frowned: "What is she doing here?"
People like He Jingxian are many times stronger than He Jingshu in terms of thinking and means, and now helping He Changqing and He Jingyu manage the He family's property, they are as capable as a man.
bother you for something.
Mo Lingwei stood up and said to the shopkeeper, "Bring me two cups of tea and two snacks."
The shopkeeper let out a "hey" and immediately went to prepare.
Mo Lingwei twisted her handbag, walked up to He Jingxian, pulled out the chair and sat down.
He Jingxian was concentrating on looking at a document, when she heard the movement, her cat-like eyes raised up and narrowed sharply.
"Mo Lingwei." He Jingxian sat up straight: "You still have the face to sit in front of me."
"Did Miss He forget who owns this shop?" Mo Lingwei said in a calm voice, neither humble nor overbearing: "I don't know what I did to miss Miss He, why am I ashamed to sit here?"
He Jingxian sneered: "This store is indeed Chu Yunyao's branch in Yuncheng, but our He family also holds some shares, and it's not your property, what are you proud of?
My sister's face was scratched by Chu Yunyao's little bastard, and the scars are still there. How should the debt be settled? "
Mo Lingwei was not in a hurry: "If it wasn't for Miss He who broke into this lady's other courtyard privately, how could she be scratched by Xiaobai?
Xiu'er was frightened and had a high fever for several days and nights. Who am I going to settle the debt with?
I didn't hold Miss He accountable, but Second Miss He held me accountable first, heh! "
That soft voice completely irritated He Jingxian, and it happened that the clerk approached with snacks and teacups, He Jingxian vented all her anger on the food, lifted the tray violently, and the snacks and tea spilled all over the floor.
The clerk was trembling with fear, and stepped back several steps in a row.
The splashed tea stains dripped onto Mo Lingwei's plain clothes, she stood up Shi Shiran, and said to the clerk, "Go and settle the loss, and let Second Miss He compensate according to the price!"
Turning the topic around, Mo Lingwei said again: "I haven't asked Miss He, why have you been sitting in my sister-in-law's shop for the past few days since you didn't plan to buy anything?"
