Chapter 322: Considerate for Her
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Zhong Lang was indeed Zhong Lang, he always asked questions about the crux of the problem!
He was an old man in the martial world, and he was one of the top five âSee You Neverâ Mr. Zhong. He had to worry about the conflicts between these girls ever since he decided to be Liu Shimeiâs bodyguard.
How did he end up becoming a family retainer?
Liu Shimei pursed her lips and said, âThere shouldnât be any issues with Miaozhen. I canât just befriend anyone blindly. Though I do get along well with her, I carefully considered our friendship before forming it. As for Miao LinglongâŠâ
âWhat is it?â Moâer asked, âMiss, do you also find something peculiar about Miss Miao? She hasnât had any contact with you in the past three years, and suddenly she comes bearing gifts! Not to mention, attempting to win your favor with a box of snacks, doesnât it seem too cheap?â
Liu Shimei shook her head and replied, âItâs not just her; there are others who havenât had contact with me for three years. However⊠the fact that she came bearing just a box of snacks to win me over raised my guard against her.â
With the original ownerâs temper, she was too cold and aloof. It was impossible for her to have a good friend. That was not the main point!
The crucial point wasâŠ
âI think Miss Zhang and Miss Miao should have a good relationship.â Lianqiao added, âYesterday, when we returned from Spring Garden, Miss Miao and Miss Zhang were in the same carriage!â
Liu Shimei let out a sigh, saying, âBe cautious, 1 feel that Miss Miao is a lot shrewder than Miaozhen. Itâs just a gut feeling!â
To be more accurate, she was cunning!
However, Miao Linglong had to hide her shrewdness. Why?
The most crucial reason is still-
Was Yu Wanqingâs snakebite really an accident? If so, why did Liu Shimei detect a medicinal fragrance on Miao Linglong that could excite snakes when she visited with snacks that day?
She did not have any evidence and could not say it out loud.
âThen, Eldest Young Miss, are you going to see Madam Miao?â Moâer asked again.
Liu Shimei shrugged, âSince 1 agreed, and this is my profession, I will definitely go. However, Iâll wait for them to invite me again. Letâs focus on securing the herbal business and opening the medical hall.â
She then turned to Qi Yang and asked, âMaster, what about the doctor I wanted?â
Qi Yang replied,â Iâve spread the word. They will probably arrive at the Imperial Capital in the next few days. 1 heard that they have an appointment at Fulai Inn. ou can choose someone when the time comes. Be mentally prepared; they all came because of your reputation, and whether you can win them over depends on you. Itâs best to recruit them into the family; theyâll be more useful as insiders.â
âYes, I know.â Liu Shimei agreed.
After showing respect to her master, Liu Shimei went to the Liang family. She spent over an hour in the study discussing matters with Liang Wei, Liang Yong, and Liang Xun, three generations of the Liang familyâs leaders. Afterward, she came out, and they never mentioned what they discussed during that time. The Liang family members were all quite taciturn and did not ask.
After that, Liang Wei gave Liu Shimei a large sum of money and asked her to open a medical hall.
Of course, Liu Shimei refused, âGrandpa, itâs not like I donât have money.â âWhere did you get the money? Isnât your money your motherâs dowry? Keep it for yourself!â Liang Wei said sternly.
Madam Wang also said, âThatâs right, Shimei. Itâs not that we look down on King Dun Yu, but he is who he is and wonât change. With a substantial dowry, when you go to the royal family, you wonât be looked down upon. Even if King Dun Yu doesnât have any accomplishments, with this dowry, youâll live well, and you wonât have to worry about him being bullied.â
Liu Shimei was touched.
They were considerate not only of her but even of her future son-in-law who had not even married her yet.
With a rich dowry and marrying such a wife, even that fool Huangfu Lingyao would feel proud. Although he might not realize it, others would think highly of him due to his powerful wife. A powerful wifeâs family was also a strength, deterring anyone who might dare to bully him.
âThank you, Grandpa,â Liu Shimei held the silver notes, thinking to herself, Well, fine, fine. Refusing is almost impossible. I might as well accept them, and perhaps I can repay them later?
After bidding farewell to the Liang family, she returned to the Grand Chancellorâs Residence. As soon as she entered, she was called over by Liu Fuyun..
