Revenge of the First Daughter - Chapter 35

Chapter 035 Begin Counterattack
In the jade-like sky, a few white clouds changed shape from time to time. One moment, they were like soft cotton candy, and another moment, they were like a few small animals playing back and forth. They were very cute.

The gentle breeze blew, and the faint fragrance of osmanthus blossoms filled his nose. The corner of Yun Xiao’s mouth curved into a faint arc.

The corner of his mouth gently raised as he glanced at Chun Lan, who was beside him, “Continue.”

Chun Lan respectfully replied, As he walked, he said, “Since yesterday when the young lady went to the Eldest Princess’ mansion for dinner, “There are several shops, restaurants and teahouses in the capital. These newly opened restaurants specialize in selling all kinds of desserts and different drinks. These are all unheard of and caused a sensation in the capital. In just one day, these drinks and desserts began to become popular in the capital.”

Yun Xiao’s expression did not change, but her eyes became darker and darker. “What else?”

Chun Lan said as she slowly frowned, “I heard that there weren’t many people in our Yun Clan’s restaurant yesterday. Everyone went to see the newly launched food. Master is very furious about this.”

Yun Xiao only gave a kindness, but the pace under her feet accelerated. It was obvious that the food offered by county princess Hui Ning would sell well in the capital.

Firstly, those meals would only be available next year. Naturally, many people were curious to see them now. Moreover, the food and drinks he had tasted in his previous life were extremely delicious. In his previous life, they had created an empty alley, so he naturally couldn’t be any worse off in this life.

Secondly, these shops and restaurants were all opened by the county princess of Hui Ning, The eldest princess and county princess Hui Ning were both loved by His Majesty, Quite a few nobles were also hoping to hold a show when the Hui Ning County Governor’s shop opened, This was definitely not a bad thing. This also caused more and more people to flock. The royal family was already wearing a mysterious outer garment, and County Lord Hui Ning publicized it at the birthday banquet. He did not conceal his identity from the shops and restaurants. The citizens would rush to buy something that was so close to the royal family.

All of this caused Huining County’s county princess’ shop and other food to sell well in the capital.

However, there were only these people in the capital. The industries under the county princess Hui Ning’s name suddenly sold well, so the industries under Yun Clan’s name would naturally be stagnant. Yun Maozhe naturally deserved to be enraged.

However, the Yun Clan had been operating in the capital for so many years, and could still afford to suffer a single day’s loss. However, Yun Maozhe was clearly enraged because he saw the great impact of this incident. It was obvious that he had a sense of crisis.

Yun Xiao had to admire Yun Maozhe’s sensitivity to business. It was also true that a person without any foundation, since he could become the largest emperor merchant in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, he must have a certain talent, tactfulness, and sensitivity to danger.

All of this was indispensable!

However, competition was not necessarily a bad thing!

Chun Lan stole a glance at Yun Xiao’s current expression and actually smiled slightly. However, that smile was really subtle. Chun Lan frowned and had some doubts in her heart, but she did not say it out loud.

When Yun Xiao entered the room, she felt that the atmosphere in the room was very awkward. However, Yun Xiao did not care at all. She just chuckled and walked in. She did not look at all the restless people in the room and bowed gently. “Greetings to grandmother, greetings to father and mother.”

Sun shi saw the smile on Yun Xiao’s face and snorted coldly. She glanced at Yuan shi from the corner of her eyes. “Yes, fourth young miss, didn’t you see that Old Madame and your father are upset? You can actually laugh out loud.”

Yun Xiao’s expression immediately noticed that Old Madame Yun’s expression had already sunk. Yun Maozhe’s expression was also somewhat unsightly. Madam Lu and Yun Lan had worried expressions on their faces. Yun Lan had already touched them. “Grandmother, Fourth Sister might have something good to say.”

Brother Han’s soft and waxy voice also carried a hint of dissatisfaction. “That’s right, Fourth Sister is not that kind of person.”

Yun Xiao’s heart was warm, but she did not hold any hope for Madam Yuan and the others. “I came to advise father, so I naturally have to be happy. I have such a sad expression like Second Mother, full of tears. Those who don’t know think that our family is crying and mourning.”

Who else could cry when she was in mourning? Naturally, she was the oldest matriarch. Madam Yuan’s face was ashen and he snorted coldly, “Is this what you should say as a granddaughter?”

However, Yun Xiao was not afraid. She chuckled and said, “Of course not. I was just mentioning Second Mother. Although we are imperial merchants, we don’t know how many people are staring at us. It’s better to keep an eye on us at all times.”

It didn’t take long! Mrs. Yuan stared at Yun Xiao with a gloomy expression, but she knew that what Yun Xiao said was true, but Mrs. Sun was angry. “The fourth young lady is eloquent, and her tongue is as sharp as a spring. I feel ashamed of being inferior to her.”

Madam Lu tightened her hand and softly helped Yunxiao out of the encirclement. “Xiaoxiao is still young, after all. Why should my younger sister be angry with her?”

It was this girl who sent her daughter into the ancestral hall! The more Madam Sun thought about it, the angrier he became. He stole a glance at Yun Maozhe and snorted coldly, “Xiaoxiao is no longer young. Next year, we can talk about marriage.”

The daughter’s marriage was definitely Madam Lu’s heart’s pain! Mrs. Lu’s face was slightly green, and her lips trembled for a moment, but she was speechless. After the withdrawal of her marriage, she did not know when Xiaoxiao’s marriage would be settled. It was probably even more difficult.

Yun Xiao’s eyes carried a faint mockery. “Third sister hasn’t married yet, so I’m naturally not in a hurry. Besides, eldest sister and second sister haven’t returned yet. They’re both unmarried. They’re both young and old, so Xiao Xiao naturally doesn’t dare to overstep them.”

Under the pressure of an orderly hat, Yun Yao’s marriage would have to be postponed, and Yun Yao’s belly would not grow up until everyone had married.

Yun Xiao suddenly felt that the second uncle’s two sisters were really pleasing.

Madam Sun’s expression changed. When the two of them got engaged, Yun Yao’s child would be born. However, if she did not wait for the engagement of the two girls from the Second Master’s family, there would definitely be a dispute between the two houses. This was definitely not what the matriarch wanted to see. “You!”

Yun Maozhe naturally remembered what Madam Sun was thinking. He coldly snorted, “Enough, shut up! If you have time to talk about Xiaoxiao here, why don’t you discipline your daughter properly?” After saying this, his expression darkened. “By the way, advise her to get rid of the child.”

Originally, he was still considering whether to leave or stay the child, but now, he had already made a decision! The Yun Clan has been doing business for generations. Second Brother Yun Xianglei managed to find a vacancy in the officialdom with great difficulty. He can be considered an official. He definitely cannot have a grudge with Second Brother.

Moreover, he went to the Shen Clan with Shen Yingfan to talk about the marriage between Yun Yao and Shen Yingfan, but in the end, the Shen Clan was only willing to let Yun Yao be their concubine! No matter what, their Yun Clan’s girl would never be a concubine! So the marriage hasn’t been decided yet.

When Madam Sun and Madam Yuan heard this, their expressions immediately changed. “Master? How can you let Yaoyao kill the child? Without this child, the Shen family will hate us.” Most importantly, Yun Yao needed this child to stand firm in the Shen Clan.

Yun Maozhe only snorted coldly and said resentfully, “Do they hold a grudge? Do I still hold a grudge against them? I said kissing them with a shy face. Madam Shen is only willing to let Yun Yao be a concubine!”

Mrs. Sun was struck by lightning when she heard this news. How was this possible? Madam Shen had clearly said that she would let Yao Yao be her main wife, but Yun Maozhe would definitely not talk about this matter.

What else did he want to say? Yun Maozhe had already turned his head to look at Yun Xiao and no longer paid attention to her. “Xiao Xiao, get up. What do you think you have in mind to solve this crisis?”

Hearing this, Yun Xiao said, The corner of his mouth curled up slightly. With this smile, “Actually, this competition is not a bad thing, but a good thing. First, the Yun Family’s wealth has already attracted the attention of the royal family. Now that there is competition from County Head Huining’s property, it is natural for the royal family to be able to share part of the attention of the Yun Family. This is a blessing for the Yun Family.”

“Secondly, the shops opened by county princess Huining this time are all new things. When the freshness is over, the customers will remember our restaurant shops. Moreover, the food sold in the industries under county princess Huining’s name is very expensive. Naturally, not many people can afford such expensive food for a long time. This is our advantage. “However, this matter will naturally attract our attention. It is time for the Yun Clan’s businesses to innovate. If they remain stuck on their own, they will only slowly be eliminated.”

She spoke without the slightest hint of stage fright, but her voice was soft and forceful!

Yun Maozhe looked at the woman in astonishment. These words were all correct in his analysis of the situation. He didn’t know when his daughter’s appearance had become even more outstanding!

He stared blankly at his daughter who was standing in the middle of the room with a gentle yet firm expression. A deep meaning appeared in his eyes, “Yi Xiaoxiao, how can you bring forth new ideas from the old?”

On the contrary, Yun Xiao playfully blinked her eyes. “Just leave this matter to my daughter to handle. Daddy is going to patrol the shops elsewhere. It has been delayed for a long time, so we can’t delay any longer.” As long as she had the initiative in this matter, Madam Yuan and Madam Sun would have to weigh up no matter how many bad ideas they had. As for Yun Xiao, she had begun to gain weight in the Yun Clan, instead of following Madam Yuan’s orders all the time. This was her goal today!

Everyone in the room looked at Yun Xiao in surprise. At this moment, Yun Xiao’s body seemed to carry a wisp of light, causing everyone to be unable to move their eyes away. At the same time, they were shocked. Was this still the cowardly and cowardly Yun Xiao?

However, Yun Xiao would not give them the chance to imagine. “Daddy, my daughter went to the Princess’ Mansion for a banquet yesterday and saw many rare things. I already have a plan in mind. Daddy can rest assured.” Hui Ning was now reborn, and he was also reborn. The only one who could compete with county princess Hui Ning was himself.

Yun Maozhe didn’t know why, but at this moment, he really believed Yun Xiao’s words and nodded, “Alright, I’ll leave this matter to you. Today, father will go to the other side to inspect the shop. I will have the shopkeepers report the management of the shop to you, and your big brother and second brother will assist you.” He believed in his own judgement. Since his daughter wanted to do it, he let her do it.

Yun Xiao did not expect Yun Maozhe to agree so quickly, which surprised her. However, when she saw the trust in Yun Maozhe’s eyes, her eyes were touched. Daddy had seen everything clearly.

Leaving the matter to him was to compensate himself and to intimidate Madam Yuan and Madam Sun. “Thank you, Daddy.”

Just as Madam Sun was about to refute, he saw Yun Maozhe had already walked out and immediately said what he was most concerned about, “What about Yao Yao’s marriage?”

Speaking of the marriage, Yun Maozhe’s face turned slightly pale. “Let it go first. We’ll talk about it when I get back. As for the child in Yao Yao’s belly, you absolutely can’t keep it!”

Madam Sun was about to chase after him, but Madam Yuan stopped her. Yunxiao calmly picked up her teacup and took a sip. Yun Yao’s father was angry and had lost so much face in the Shen Clan. Whether it was for the sake of the Yun Clan’s reputation or for the sake of brotherhood, she naturally couldn’t leave that child behind!
