Abandoned Woman Busy Farming

Bai Ruozhu stood up in full view of everyone and said to the young lady who called her name: "The poetry competition is all for your young ladies who have not yet left the government. I, a woman, will not come out to show my shame."

What she said was not too direct, but everyone understood it at once, and many people also remembered that in the talent competition, aren't all the women who have not left the government? Isn't it inappropriate to ask a married woman to compose poetry?

A look of annoyance flashed in the young lady's eyes, and she felt a pity that Bai Ruozhu didn't take the bait, but she still said unwillingly: "The rules are not final. Mrs. Jiang is so humble, isn't she ashamed to write poems in front of others?"

Look, this is as good as saying that she is uneducated and can't even write poetry.

There was no displeasure on Bai Ruozhu's face, but her smile grew stronger. She looked at the woman and said, "I'm ashamed to waste everyone's time. There are so many talented and beautiful young girls. What do you think of me as a woman?" ?”

Her self-deprecating tone made many people laugh. Many young ladies who had not yet left the government had a better impression of her. She did not steal the spotlight and overwhelm them. They naturally appreciated it. It was just the one who kept biting Bai Ruozhu. I'm really not ashamed to waste everyone's time.

Princess Huilan laughed, and reached out to pat Bai Ruozhu on the shoulder, saying, "You are so funny. You sound old-fashioned."

Bai Ruozhu smiled at her, "To make the princess laugh, Ruozhu is not a talented girl at all. She just knows how to do accounting and do some small business, so she won't show off her shame."

So the poem writing continued, but the woman who opened her mouth to trouble Bai Ruozhu looked very unhappy. Because Bai Ruozhu made it clear with all her strength, her intentions were very shameful to everyone.

Bai Ruozhu also took a closer look. Among them was a daughter-in-law of the Hou family who was very talented in literature. Princess Huilan looked at her a few more times, and finally there was a sense of scrutiny in her eyes. She was afraid that Princess Huilan herself or was choosing for others. Where is the wife?

After finishing the poem, it was time for talent. All the ladies were happy to see it, and they didn't have to comment. The ladies also performed well, and some of them were really outstanding. Bai Ruozhu heard the people next to him saying that there were a few The noble daughter is a student of the Chang'an Palace Girls' School.

"Ruozhu, don't just look at it, comment on it too." Princess Huilan suddenly said.

Everyone became quiet again and all looked at Bai Ruozhu. She once again became the center of attention.

Bai Ruozhu's expression remained unchanged, but she guessed in her heart that this was what Princess Huilan wanted. Is she holding her in her arms and letting her taste some sweetness, or did she want her to feel happy?

"You ladies are all very talented. Why worry that we in Danliang don't have as many female bachelors as Chengshui Kingdom? Ruozhu really opened his eyes today." She deliberately said a few nice words without commenting on them. She couldn't do that. Whom do you praise and offend?

Everyone was very happy about what she said, and started talking about it.

"Yes, the emperor now respects women's studies. Even if a woman gets married, she can continue to study. If she becomes a female bachelor, her future achievements will definitely be no worse than those of female bachelors from Chengshui Country."

"Isn't that right? We have many female disciples here. If there is a literary fight between female scholars from the two countries in the future, Chengshui Country may not necessarily be our opponent."

"..."

Princess Huilan glanced at Bai Ruozhu quietly and thought that this woman was indeed not simple. She diverted everyone's attention with a few words and did not make herself too conspicuous or annoying. She was really a smart person.

The subsequent banquet broke up after another half an hour. Princess Huilan took Bai Ruozhu's hand and said, "Ruozhu, I'm a little dizzy. Please take me back."

"Yes, princess." Bai Ruozhu had no choice but to support her, seeing that the topic was about to get to the point, and he couldn't escape what was coming.

After accompanying Princess Huilan back to her room, she retreated, leaving only the green screen waiting beside her.

She patted the back of Bai Ruozhu's hand and said, "Ruozhu, you are the right girl for me. I like her at first sight. From now on, you will treat me as your elder and there is no need to see her outside."

"It is Ruozhu's blessing to be favored by the princess." Bai Ruozhu lowered her head and replied.

Princess Huilan wanted to look at her expression, but because her head was slightly lowered, she couldn't get a clear look.

"Is it not easy for you to do business as a woman? Hua Xiangrong has several rivals in Beijing. For example, Tianyi Pavilion and Lingxiuxuan are all well-established shops with backends and backgrounds. It will not be easy for Hua Xiangrong to catch up with them. ." Princess Huilan said, picking up the tea bowl and waiting for Bai Ruozhu to say something.

"Yes, it would be nice if Hua Xiangrong is not crushed." Bai Ruozhu said smoothly.

Princess Huilan smiled brightly, "We happened to hit it off, and I like you very much. Why not buy some shares? No one will dare to bully you easily in the future."

Bai Ruozhu sneered in her heart, don't you think you are bullying me now?

It turns out that Princess Huilan had this idea. Bai Ruozhu didn't think about it at first. She subconsciously felt that Princess Huilan was not short of money and would not lower her status to steal her business. How could she know that she would really do this? ’s mouth.

First, show your goodwill, then express your love for her in public, make her look happy, and then tell her that it is not easy to get along in Beijing. If you are sensible, you should find me as your backer. You can share with me some of the money you make, and you can continue to contribute by yourself. .

"I wonder how many shares the princess wants to buy?" Bai Ruozhu asked tactfully. She was curious to what extent this Princess Huilan dared to bully her.

Princess Huilan thought she was already attracted, and said with a smile: "I can get 40%, what do you think?"

Oh, you don’t have to pay anything. If you step in halfway, you will get 40% of her bonus. What’s the difference between this and robbing?

Bai Ruozhu had a polite smile on her face, but her heart was cold. She looked embarrassed and said: "I started with a small business, and I thought about growing it up at the beginning, so I first started a partnership with friends and relatives, and everyone There are some cadres, I have to go back and say hello to them first, lest they think I am good at making opinions and hurt their feelings in the future."

The smile on Princess Huilan's face faded a bit, and her face darkened. Her narrow eyes looked a little cold because of the stern color.

"Your relatives and friends won't give me any face, right? Or do they not know my name? Who in Beijing won't give me some face? If you are so indifferent, you won't be able to continue the business."

The expression on Bai Ruozhu's face remained unchanged, and she said respectfully: "What the princess said is absolutely true. I will tell them what to say. I don't think they dare to have any objections."

Princess Huilan looked at Bai Ruozhu with a critical eye. Do she really want to discuss it with her partners, or do she refuse to cooperate with her? But she wasn't trying to scare Bai Ruozhu. If Bai Ruozhu was so indifferent, she wouldn't mind letting her business die in Beijing.
