Ruyi Pavilion has only opened in the past one or two months. Although this business is not as good as that of famous shops such as Linglong Pavilion and Nishangxuan, the number of customers coming in and out is not less.

    Only, Shen Xinyan knew that in a few years, Ruyi Pavilion would rise in the Beijing business circle, forming a tripartite trend with Linglong Pavilion and Nishangxuan. And the behind-the-scenes owner of Ruyi Pavilion is Xu Sumin next to her.

    The business of Linglong Pavilion and Nishangxuan can be prosperous all the time, but not only relying on the operation of the store, but also the management of these four places, the choice and support of the backer, etc. Being able to grab food from these two families is evident in Xu Sumin's ability and courage.

    Since Xu Sumin didn't express her identity at this moment, Shen Xinyan could only pretend she didn't know.

    "Ah! This little wooden man can actually turn in circles!" At the other end, Xiao Yingzhi exclaimed in surprise.

    Shen Xinyan looked and saw her daughter standing on tiptoe, clinging to the cargo table and staring at a peculiar wooden box above, even Yunfu, who always loved to be a little adult, opened her mouth slightly. Baba watched intently.

      A sound of 'ding ding dong dong' rang out.

    "Yeah! It will really ring! Yunfu Yunfu, look at it! It really does ring!" The little girl was even more surprised, holding Yunfu's hand and shaking it continuously .

    "Really! How did you do it?" Yunfu walked around it curiously.

    Seeing the two little guys watching with great interest, Qiutang couldn't help being aroused, and hurriedly stepped forward to see what happened.

    "The things in Ruyi Pavilion are really novel and unique, and it can be seen that the owner has put a lot of thought into it." Seeing that the goods inside are so strange and unique, Shen Xinyan sighed with emotion.

    "If you want to make a breakthrough in the capital, you naturally have to put some effort into it." Xu Sumin disagreed, and winked at a middle-aged woman in the store, the woman nodded, He turned around and entered the back room, but after a while, he walked out holding a delicate box.

    Xu Sumin took the box and opened it, took out a mirror inside and handed it to Shen Xinyan.

    When the mirror clearly showed her face, Shen Xinyan couldn't help exclaiming.

    "How can this mirror be so clear?" She took it with love, stroking the smooth and flat mirror surface.

    "This is a 'glass mirror' from the western side, which can clearly reflect things. I occasionally got two sides last year. If my wife does not dislike it, this mirror will be given to you How are you, Madam?" Xu Sumin said with a slight smile.

    As the eldest son of the prince's mansion, she naturally has no shortage of precious and delicate head and face jewelry, but for this 'glass mirror', she would bet that the whole capital would not be able to pick a third face.

    Shen Xinyan was slightly startled, handed the mirror to Qiutang and carefully put it back in the box, pretending to be surprised: "So, the owner of this Ruyi Pavilion is Mrs. Xu?"

    "Exactly!" Xu Sumin didn't hide her any more, and complied generously.

    "Mrs. Xu, a weak woman, can support such a large storefront, and she does a good job, which is really admirable!"

    Xu Sumin shook her head: "Madam's too much!"

    While speaking, she led Shen Xinyan into the room.

    Shen Xinyan saw that she seemed to have something to say to herself, so she instructed Qiutang to look at the two little ones, and then followed Xu Sumin in.

     

    "Please speak, ma'am."

    "The little woman is not from the capital, and her business focus was in the southwest. The little woman intends to move the family's business to the capital one after another. Heel is not easy."

      Moderately.

    Shen Xinyan's mind moved.

    Listening to what she said, could it be that she wants to find herself as a partner? If this is the case, then it is really a good thing that the world has fallen pie!

    Because of the last life, Xu Sumin's business in this hot spring village was very hot. Ordinary people who want to go have to book a few days in advance. Although many similar Zhuangzi were opened in the suburbs of Beijing one after another, none of them was as prosperous as hers.

    She calmed herself, pretending to be surprised and asked: "Partner? Madam, who did you like? Do you want me to lead the way?"

    Xu Sumin shook her head and looked at her sincerely and said: "The little woman is bold, dare to ask the first lady if she is willing to cooperate with the little woman to open this village? The little woman is responsible for all other matters. I won't bother Madam, and in the future, 30% of Zhuangzi's profits will go to Madam."

    Thirty percent of the income...which is quite high.

    Shen Xinyan sat up straight and asked slowly: "Madam wants to know, I'm just a housewife, and my connections should be limited. Madam asked me for this partner, I thought about it, There is nothing to attract a lady other than the title of my wife, the Crown Prince."

    "Only I still don't understand. If the lady wants to seek asylum, the British government is not the best choice, and I am naturally the same as the wife of the prince who has no real power."

    "Mrs. Shizi is a sensible person, to be honest, the partner originally chosen by the little woman is the sixth son of the Duke of Liguo. It's not the little woman's boasting, if this Zhuangzi can succeed, it will definitely make a lot of money. The little woman knows that the wife of the prince is of noble birth, and naturally disdains such yellow and white things, but the little woman believes that women stand in the world and need to be confident. In this way, no matter what their future prospects and fate are, they can face it calmly. Fearless."

     

    Shen Xinyan looked over and saw a young couple in front of the cloth village on the opposite side of the road, who were choosing cloth. Just at a glance, they knew that they were a very loving couple, and they could see the lingering affection in every gesture.

    "Madam thinks this couple is loving? Can the husband treat his wife carefully?" Xu Sumin asked.

    Shen Xinyan nodded: "The husband's hand has been supporting his wife without a trace, and his eyes are more focused on his wife, which can be regarded as careful and considerate."

    "Does the lady think that this couple will be in love forever?"

    Shen Xinyan was stunned for a moment, then shook her head and said, "I can't guarantee this, the years are long, and who can tell what will happen in the future."

    "Madam is right. Madam, look at the old lady in blue in front of the tofu shop." Xu Sumin pointed out the window again.

    Shen Xinyan looked at her and heard her continue beside her: "The old woman was young and widowed, so she devoted herself to nurturing her son, and only hoped that her son would excel in the future and honor the ancestors. Her son is also a good candidate. Yes, a few years ago, I became a Tongjinshi, got a low-ranking official and went to work in other places, and at the same time, I also married and had children in other places."

    "Then why didn't he take the old mother?" Shen Xinyan asked subconsciously.

    "Madam's words are on point. It's just because the daughter-in-law there is from a wealthy family and doesn't like this poor old woman. The poor old woman also wants to protect her son's reputation, and she will not die. Acknowledging his son's unfilial piety, he just said that he was used to living at home and was unwilling to go abroad."

    Shen Xinyan was stunned.

    Xu Sumin added: "In this world, women follow their husbands when they marry, and children when their husbands die. The honor, disgrace, and peace of their lives depend on others. If they can't be independent, how can they be confident? If they marry non-human beings, This life is also over. If you are not filial to your son when you are old, and your daughter-in-law will not tolerate it, then life will be worse than death."

    Shen Xinyan was silent, staring at her in a daze, listening to her shocking words, she couldn't calm down for a long time.

    "I'm not being cynical, I just feel that confidence is really indispensable for women."

    Shen Xinyan's heart was numb, she just felt that Xu Sumin's words were on the point.

    "Although the female lead is inside and the male is outside, but the woman is trapped in the inner house all her life, and her eyes are always on her husband and child, it is inevitable that expectations are too high. If the effort and the reward complement each other, everyone will be happy; If the results are unsatisfactory, the frustration and disappointment are small, and the most afraid of losing yourself."

    "To put it in an ugly way, a woman lives forever, her husband is unreliable, and her son may not be reliable either. Only oneself will never betray oneself!"

    Shen Xinyan only felt that her head was buzzing, no one had ever said this to her, and she never felt that it was wrong for a woman to obey her husband or her son! I don't even think it's wrong to put my whole heart and soul on my husband and son.

    But the woman in front of her, she told her frankly that "a woman lives forever, her husband is not reliable, and her son may not be reliable."

    However, the past experience also told her again and again in her heart that it was true, what Mrs. Xu said was true, and the most reliable person in the world is herself! Your husband will betray you, your son will betray you, only you will never betray yourself!

    Seeing her distraught appearance, Xu Sumin stopped talking, poured herself a bowl of tea, and sipped it.

     

    Although the word money and power is the root of all evil, it has to be admitted that these two words are also the greatest guarantee for a person to live arbitrarily.

    They are already the wife of the prince, if there is no accident, they will be the wife of the prince, the wife of the prince, as long as you fulfill the duties of the prince, wife, and wife with a man?

    He loves to put it in the outer room! As long as she firmly grasps the money bag in the house, what little goblin doesn't let her round and flatten? And spending money can't be so refreshing, see how men provoke goblins outside!

    At this time, Shen Xinyan finally calmed down.

    She looked fixedly at Xu Sumin with an open face, and slowly asked: "My wife and I are only one-on-one, and we can't even talk about general friendship, why did my wife say this to me? Confidential words?"

    Xu Sumin chuckled and asked: "It was the first time I met my wife, why did my wife meddle in her own business and remind her?"

    Shen Xinyan was stunned for a moment, and the next moment, she also laughed softly.
