Mo Yanliang

Chapter 221
Yan Ruofan has been favored for many years, and he knows the temperament of all the elders like the back of his hand.

His grandmother was from a famous family, and when she was young, she married into the palace and became a princess. She has always regarded herself very highly.

The aunt Lu's family was also from a famous family, and the Lu family's status was obviously higher, which made the grandmother very uncomfortable.

His mother took advantage of this and worked hard to provoke the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, which led to the current situation.

Anyway, he is a junior, no matter what he does in front of his grandmother, he should take it for granted, so what if he loses face?
Yan Ruofan knelt down with a plop because of the leg trembling: "Grandson dare not."

Princess Shoukang said indifferently: "Only you know whether you dare or not, there is no need to be obedient here.

I called you here today because I want to ask about yesterday's birthday ceremony. "

Yan Ruofan said: "Grandmother just ask, grandson will never dare to hide anything."

His attitude made Princess Shoukang very satisfied, and her anger subsided a little.

"I heard that you gave Grand Master Xia a birthday gift alone yesterday?"

"Back to grandma, my grandson did send a separate gift, but it wasn't for Grand Master Xia."

"If it's not for Grand Master Xia, then it's for Miss Xia San?"

"Yes, my grandson did send Miss Xia a congratulatory gift."

Princess Shoukang narrowed her eyes.

She is not stupid, how could she fail to see her grandson's plan.

But is his ambition too great?
Brother Shen is the eldest grandson and the legitimate heir to the palace.

It's a pity that he encountered misfortune when he was young and became a fool. It is impossible for him to inherit the palace.

Of course she hoped that Lu would have another grandson, but she couldn't hang herself from a tree, after all, the eldest son still had so many bastards.

If it really doesn't work, choose one of them and put it under Lu's name, and he will also inherit the title as a legitimate son.

Fan Ge'er is the oldest of the bastards, so his chances are naturally greater, but it doesn't mean that the title will definitely be his in the future.

Apparently, he himself realized this, so he turned his mind on the third girl of the Xia family.

Grand Master Xia is powerful and powerful, and the glory and wealth of the Xia family has been passed down for countless generations.

It is impossible for any concubine in their family to marry a concubine, let alone the most favored concubine?
Yan Ruofan was sure of this point, so he wanted to use the power of the Xia family to become the real heir to the palace.

But he was too impatient and too short-sighted.

Even if the gift he gave was really priceless, it was impossible for the third girl of the Xia family to be tempted by it.

What's more, if she has such a good relationship with Sister Shu, how can she have a good impression of Brother Fan?
The more she tried to please her, the more she looked down on her.

Thinking of this, Princess Shoukang said: "Brother Fan, what grandma wants to ask is not this, but the source of these gifts."

Yan Ruofan smiled and said, "Grandma, like those people, also suspects grandson of stealing?"

Princess Shoukang smiled: "Some words may sound unpleasant, but it is normal for people to suspect unreasonable things.

Grandma knows your situation better than anyone else, tell me, where did those things come from? "

Yan Ruofan said: "If I tell you, please don't get angry, grandma, let alone let other people know."

Princess Shoukang raised her eyebrows.

This child is so clever, he is better than his father.

It's just that these words are somewhat threatening, which makes people not like it.

"Let's talk about it first."

Yan Ruofan said: "About five years ago, my aunt bought a pawn shop outside.

All the things I gave Miss Xia came from this pawnshop. "

"Pawnshop?" Princess Shoukang whispered.

A pawn shop is different from a normal shop.

Yan Ruofan's aunt was born in a poor family, and she had never seen a few taels of silver since she was a child, let alone those really valuable things.

She has no capital and no ability, what kind of money does she use to buy a pawn shop, and how does she manage it in five years?

After all, from Fan Geer's tone, the shop's business should be very good.

And the last point, she could hardly bear to think about it.

In the past few years, the mansion has relied on pawning things to maintain their dignity, if things were pawned into Aunt Yan Ruofan's pawn shop, it would be embarrassing!

Yan Ruofan said, "It's the Anxin Pawn Shop in the west of the city."

Princess Shoukang's old face turned red,

Last month, she had someone pawn a batch of porcelain, and she went to Anxin Pawnshop.

"Brother Fan, you were born and raised in the palace, so it's impossible that you don't know the rules of the palace.

Not to mention your aunt, even your aunt, except for her dowry, no matter what business you do, it belongs to the palace.

Moreover, as your aunt, going out of the house to negotiate with people, and even do business, has violated the family law.

Unless she got permission from your father and aunt in advance..."

Yan Ruofan took a few steps forward and kowtowed a few more times.

"Grandmother, you have lived in the palace for so many years, you should be aware of my aunt's difficulties.

Except for monthly money and occasional rewards from her father, she really couldn't come up with any money.

The grandfather's family often came to beg for flowers, and it was not enough for my aunt to give them all the monthly money.

We all know it's against the rules, so from now on the pawn shop will be left to grandma..."

After hearing these words, Princess Shoukang, who was also very short of money, was a little moved.

But after all, she still needs face, and some things are hard to say too directly.

"This... the mistress of the long house is your aunt, so it is appropriate that this shop should be handed over to her."

Yan Ruofan sneered and said, "The aunt has money in her hands, except for eldest brother and Jing Shu, who can meet half a eldest son?

Even when her father was being chased for debts, she didn't even bat an eyelid when she found out.

She already hated our mother and son deeply, and wished that we would make a fool of ourselves.

If the pawnshop is handed over to her, the consequences can be imagined. "

Princess Shoukang doesn't know this truth, what she just said is just a false refusal.

"But grandma doesn't know much about running a pawn shop. What should I do if I lose money?"

Seeing that she was really tempted, Yan Ruofan smiled and said: "This matter is not difficult to solve, if grandma can trust our mother and son, then let my aunt continue to run the business.

[-]% of the monthly income will be handed over to the grandmother, and all the account books will be handed over to you for inspection. What do you think? "

Princess Shoukang blushed even more, but this time she was not embarrassed, but excited.

Seventy percent of the income is not a small amount.

If you have this money, many things can be easily solved.

Yan Ruofan was also very excited.

Grandma seems to be shrewd, but she is actually a fool.

Although Auntie was born in a poor family, she is good at doing business, and she is even more skilled at handling accounts.

Not to mention grandma, even the accountant in the mansion would never be able to see the problems in the account book.

In this way, their pawn shop turned from darkness to light. Although the money they got was less, they no longer had to worry about their aunt, let alone their father.
