Ye Muyu listened at the door of the study for a while and hesitated. She did not intend to go in and protect him. A loving mother and strict father should have their own duties. This child would not be a big problem.
She left and went to the courtyard.
Ye Muyu asked Madam Hu to pick the vegetables.
Chu Ziluo still remembered what she had promised her in the carriage that afternoon. She quickly followed her to the courtyard to help pick the vegetables.
Ye Muvu went into the kitchen and peeled a few peaches.
She sent it to the study for the father and son to taste.
The fresh peaches were crispy and sweet, although they looked a little ugly.
As she ate the peach, Ye Muyu remembered that the rich businessman wanted to buy the recipe for the Soft Fragrance Cake. “Have you met Third Young Master when you came back? Does he know about buying the recipe?” In the end, this matter was mainly related to Xie Yu.
If they could not afford to offend the other party, they could only give the prescription away.
However, if they did it well, they might be able to make the other party owe them a favor.
It all depended on how they operated. At this moment, Ye Muyu realized the importance of information.
She did not even know who the person who wanted to buy the recipe was, let alone how she could benefit from this matter.
Chu Heng nodded. “I’ve already informed them. Xie Yu really didn’t know about this before. It was the Qin family who deliberately let those shopkeepers hide it from the Xie family.”
“However, the Xie family’s foundation in Nanchang County is not something the Qin family can compare to. The main reason is that Xie Yu has been taking exams these two days and has no time to care about business matters.”
“Moreover, the Xie family has always been independent, especially Xie Yu, the only one who can become an official. Although the Xie family dotes on him, they never help him in foreign affairs.”
“In other words, even if Xie Yu’s two elder brothers knew about this news, they wouldn’t tell Xie Yu?” Ye Muyu could not help but sigh. No wonder the Xie family’s education did not produce any playboys who only wanted to enjoy themselves and played cockfights all day long.
Chu Heng replied, “Yes, the Eldest Young Master and Second Young Master of the Xie family are both business geniuses. They have spies everywhere and have long discovered this matter. As long as it’s not a life-threatening matter, they won’t interfere.”
“No wonder. I knew that the Xie family had many shops in town. How could they hide it from the other shopkeepers? So that’s why.”
Ye Muyu was slightly relieved. After all, it seemed that the Xie family’s foundation was not bad.
It was not an exaggeration to say that they were the local tyrant.
“Is the Qin family from the capital city?” Ye Muyu asked.
“Yes, the Qin family is considered a second-class force in the capital city. Three generations ago, there were also officials in the imperial court. Now, there are quite a number of shops in the capital city. They have been developing quite well in recent years.” Chu Heng’s expression was indifferent.
“You mean that the Qin family is only a merchant family, but has good relations with officials of all levels in the capital city?” Ye Muyu was a little surprised. She had thought that the Qin family would have the backing of an official.
Of course, Ye Muyu would not look down on the other party. However, compared to the Xie family, the Qin family’s development was somewhat declining. After all, no matter how much money they had, they could not keep it if they did not have the capabilities.
If no one in the family studied, how many generations could they be rich and noble?
Looking at it this way, the Xie family was indeed more far-sighted.
“Yes.”
“So you don’t have to worry. Since Xie Yu already knows, he will take the next step. The Qin family won’t come over. To be able to build such a big family business, no one is a fool. They are all smart people. They will never offend anyone if it’s possible to befriend them,” Chu Heng explained.
At this moment, Chu Jin had already finished the peach.
