Chapter 11 Blind Date Banquet

Since he wasted some time in persuading the girl to commit suicide, Ruan Ning almost made the maid anxious to death when she rushed to the east gate to meet the maid.

"Miss, why did you come out?"

Ruan Ning didn't say much about what happened between her and Zhou Jiayang, and said vaguely: "It's nothing, I just walked around in the garden."

The maid didn't seem to believe it, and asked tentatively: "You must have gone to see the third prince, right? Miss, please don't be confused again. I heard people say that Miss Ruan Xin is just waiting for you to make a mistake and will find an opportunity to take you down." Drive out of the Hou Mansion."

Ruan Ning looked at the round-faced girl in front of her. This person's name was Xiaoshuang. She grew up with the original owner. Although the original owner was pampered, she had a good nature and was not too harsh on her servants.

Among her few friends, Xiaoshuang was one of them. If this girl hadn't been forcing her to have a tryst with the third prince, the original owner would have given birth to a second child.

"Hey……"

Ruan Ning patted Xiao Shuang's shoulder, sighed and said, "Don't worry, I have given up on the third prince, and I will never provoke him again. Let's go shopping."

In view of what Ruan Ning had done in the past, Xiaoshuang was doubtful about her words, but when he saw her happily walking through various shops, most of his doubts were eliminated.

When visiting a jewelry store, Ruan Ning fell in love with a hairpin at first sight. She always felt like she had seen that style in a museum. Although she couldn't tell what the material was, she felt... valuable at first glance.

"Shopkeeper, I want this."

When meeting a generous customer, the shopkeeper was naturally very happy and immediately said, "Okay, I'll give this customer two taels of silver to wrap up."

"Wait a minute, I'll pay you five taels of silver and give me the hairpin."

As soon as these words came out, Ruan Ning and the shopkeeper looked at the speaker.

"Li Shiqi, it's you again, you're done, right?" Ruan Ning was speechless, while the shopkeeper looked embarrassed.

"But this girl was the first to like the hairpin."

Li Shiqi raised her eyebrows at Ruan Ning: "Who said she liked it first? I said I liked it yesterday. Besides, the one with the highest price will get it."

Ruan Ning didn't want to fall behind, so naturally he couldn't let her go, so he immediately said: "I'll pay eight taels."

Li Shiqi: "Twelve!"

Ruan Ning: "15 taels!"

Li Shiqi: "20 taels!"

Ruan Ning's desire to win was aroused, and she hit Xiaoshuang with her elbow: "Take out all the money, I don't believe I can't kill her."

Xiaoshuang looked embarrassed and whispered into Ruan Ning's ear: "We still have a total of two taels of silver left."

Ruan Ning was shocked after hearing this: "I am a young lady of the Marquis, but I only have so little money? Where is my savings? Where is the money I saved."

Xiaoshuang said with shame: "You have forgotten that your monthly money is only ten taels, a month and a month of light. You can't even save what my wife rewards you, so what you have in your hand is all your savings."

Ruan Ning swallowed and realized that the original owner was not only a lover, but also a prodigal who didn't leave any money for her.

Li Shiqi saw the master and servant muttering there, and said impatiently: "Ruan Ning, do you want to increase the price? If you don't want it, I can take it."

Ruan Ning took a half-step back tactically and said not confidently: "I suddenly feel that this hairpin doesn't look good. If you want it, take it."

After saying that, Li Shiqi didn't give Li Shiqi a chance to fight back, and just took Xiaoshuang and ran away.

After going out, Ruan Ning became more and more unconvinced as he thought about it. It was such a shame and humiliation!To make money, she must hurry up and make money.Starting from the next day, Ruan Ning locked himself in the room every day and seriously studied the way to make money.

By the way, the Hou Mansion also has many properties under its name, but if she goes there, she can only be the second shopkeeper, which is nothing more than a part-time job, which is not good.

Besides, her parents may not be willing to let her get involved in the business, so it would be better to be her own boss.

In modern times, she opened a restaurant. She has experience in this field, so she might as well do catering. However, a simple restaurant is neither interesting nor competitive. To do it, she must make it unique and irreplaceable.

For half a month, after Ruan Ning's painstaking study, she finally decided on a business plan. She wanted to be the only one in the whole Zhou Dynasty and even the whole world, with no branches, a "heaven and earth" where food, drink and fun can be integrated.

The business plan is in place, and the next step is to implement it. Renting a store, buying furniture, and caring for employees are all indispensable. Unfortunately, she has no money now, and she has more than enough to do.

Thinking of this, Ruan Ning could only go to Ruan's father and Ruan's mother, wondering how to get some money from them.

Two days later, Ruan Ning looked at Ruan's mother and Ruan's mother was in a good mood, and diligently sent a plate of cakes, planning to take a detour before getting to the topic.

But before she could say anything, Ruan's mother spoke first: "Ning Ning, you're just here. I have something to tell you."

Ruan Ning naturally had to listen obediently when her mother spoke, but as she listened, her expression gradually became distorted: "Mom, do you want me to go on a...blind date?"

*
"Blind date?"

Cuiwei Building, elegant room on the second floor.

Xiao Lan was talking to his old friend Pei Jing about the recent murder case in the capital. Pei Jing suddenly mentioned it, which surprised Xiao Lan.

It was rare to see him showing such an expression, and Pei Jing began to talk eloquently: "I don't know who your Majesty heard from. A family is the smallest country, and a country has tens of millions of families. To care about your ministers, you must first solve the problem of being a bachelor like you." .”

Xiao Lan's face was expressionless: "It seems that you are not the same."

Pei Jing smiled: "I'm different from you. I can get married at any time, but I'm looking for someone with a face and figure that impress me. She's shy and has a curvy front and back. Do you understand? Understand?"

While they were talking, several girls were walking by on the street. One of them happened to look up and saw the two of them. Pei Jing was leaning on the window edge, stroking Liu Hai, and smiled at the girl. The girl's face was visible to the naked eye. His speed increased and he ran away with broken steps.

Pei Jing is the son of the Duke of Zhen, and he and Xiao Lan grew up naked together. Although Xiao Lan later went to the border, the relationship between the two of them remained the same.

But these two people who grew up together have completely different personalities. Pei Jingchang is handsome, loves to laugh and flirt, and can be said to be merciful.

Every time Xiao Lan saw him acting like he was having sex, he couldn't help but let out a breath. He closed the window and sat back upright at the table.

Pei Jing was even more amused when he saw his expression: "Don't always put on such a fierce face and teach your subordinates how to do things. The girl doesn't like it. Look at Qin Huai, he has only been in the capital for a long time, and he has already married the princess back home, but I still I’m quite puzzled, the Queen is really willing to marry the princess without any big trouble.”

It was not convenient for Xiao Lan to tell the secret behind it, so he said in a steady voice: "Well, His Majesty advocates diligence and thrift, so he must lead by example."

After hearing this, Pei Jing clicked his tongue twice and said, "Don't be so naive. The eldest princess wrote in a letter and said that before she comes to Beijing, she must let me find a girl for you. It is best if she can see a ready-made son when she arrives." Wife, you must go to the blind date tomorrow."

Xiao Lan shook her head noncommittally: "Why are you so idle? The court didn't give you anything to do, so you changed your career to be a matchmaker."

Speaking of this, Pei Jing was really sad. He sighed and said, "You also know that I, the Fusi of Beizhen, have been sidelined by Jinyiwei. I really have a lot of free time. Hey, are you going or not?"

Xiao Lan shook his head, blind date?Even if he is free and full, he will not go, not to mention he still has many things to do.

Pei Jing had already expected this, and said meaningfully: "If there are benefits, why don't you go?"

Xiao Lan knew that he would not say such things for no reason, so she glanced at him warily: "What do you mean?"
