Now reading: Chapter 180: Why Is There Still No News? from Do Not Offend the Reborn Wicked Wife, a Romance novel by Drinking Alone.

Long Yue felt comforted and completely forgot about confronting her brother-in-law; she leaned onto Li Qingmu’s extended arm.

A broad and solid shoulder, mm, so warm!

The next day, her brother-in-law was once again persuaded by Li Qingmu to go play with so young n of the Wang Family, this heartless and pitiless trickster, fooling even his own people.

Cao Xiao, naïve as he was, forgot all his pains after just one night.

Li Qingmu set out early in the morning, not knowing what he was up to; perhaps he sneaked away to avoid getting a harsh scolding from Long Yue if he stayed ho.

Long Yue got up, freshened herself up, had breakfast, and went to her grandfather to ask for the land deed.

Cao Yin was generous, waving his hand grandly, giving her a hundred acres of fertile land and a shop on Zhuque Street.

In Shengjing City, where every inch of land is worth its weight in gold, these would easily cost a thousand taels of silver, yet now they’re so easily obtained...

Long Yue felt a bit wistful, for when the nation becos unstable, the wealth accumulated by military generals through their achievents would stir envy among many officials.

After receiving these, she went to find Yun Niang.

"What is this..."

Yun Niang was stunned as she looked at the land deed, especially shocked at the location, unable to react for quite a while.

Long Yue stuffed the deed into her hands, chuckling lightly: "It’s for your shop, what are you daydreaming about? Hurry up, let’s go see it!"

"Oh, sure, sure..."

Yun Niang finally ca back to her senses, accepting the deed with slightly trembling hands.

"Lady Yue... isn’t this a bit too... valuable?"

How rare shops on Zhuque Street in Shengjing City are, only soone in business would know. Looking at the deed in her hand, it felt as heavy as a thousand pounds, despite being as light as a feather!

This kindness is a bit much!

But Long Yue grasped her hand tightly, laughing gently: "Valuable what? It’s leased, you’re leasing my grandfather’s shop, not being given it. In the future, when the embroidery workshop makes money, our family needs a share of the profits too!"

Doing business together, earning money together, this is called sharing everything and can deepen mutual feelings.

Yun Niang knew Long Yue was comforting her, gratefully accepting the land deed, "When it’s profitable later, you take the lion’s share."

"No!" Long Yue shook her head, "You take sixty percent, I take forty!"

"Why? The shop you provided, the silver you supplied, the future store will inevitably require a lot of money, I can’t take so much..."

"You will be managing it in the future, I’m just a hands-off boss?"

Long Yue laughed lightly, patting her shoulder, "So taking sixty percent is really not too much."

There’s a month until the Oiran competition at Tianxiang Pavilion, which is enough ti for preparations.

The two went to shop number one hundred and thirty-five on Zhuque Street, found the shop, had a general look, and discussed so layout details, then moved on to decoration, procurent, and operating.

Luckily, most of the shop was already done, just missing a few details.

Long Yue would not take care of these anymore, leaving everything to Yun Niang.

The shop will be opened by her, how it is arranged to her comfort she could only offer opinions, but can’t make decisions; if there are unsightly places in a shop, it greatly affects work mood.

Yun Niang has run embroidery business before and knows well how to stock up, Long Yue gave her a thousand taels of silver, and she went to work.

Long Yue did not follow; they just collaborated, now is the ti to build trust, and this person from Qin Family Embroidery Studio who she t earlier, if one can’t trust such a person, then one shouldn’t be a behind-the-scenes manager.

Long Yue returned to General Mansion to find Yang Zhuoya was there, and had been waiting for a while.

"Sister Yue, I heard you ntion before you could do Double-sided Embroidery?"

"Yes, why? You wouldn’t want to... learn?"

"Mmm..." Yang Zhuoya nodded shyly, seemingly embarrassed.

Long Yue laughed lightly, not teasing her, and straightaway agreed heartily, "Alright then, co over to my place later, and I’ll teach you!"

"Really? That’s great, Sister Yue, you’re wonderful!"

Long Yue and Yang Zhuoya hadn’t known each other for long, but they got along well, and Long Yue sensed from her words that there wasn’t a deep conniving mind.

Of course, not being scheming at all is impossible; in such a large mansion, under the sa roof with many sisters, without any cunning, she’d likely be eaten to the bone.

Thus, for a while afterward, Long Yue’s days were simple yet fulfilling.

Every day, she either stayed at ho to sit and do needlework with Yang Zhuoya, or went out to Yun Niang’s shop to see the arrangents, or stopped by her master’s place for a rest.

Her master’s dicine field was ready, not on Zhuque Street, yet not too far away; just a bit secluded, when Long Yue went, there was practically no one.

Long Yue thought about arranging for a bigger venue for him, but Duanmu Nan stopped her; he found it fine here, tranquil and peaceful, away from the bustling noise, perfect for nurturing his spirit.

Long Yue understood her master has a significant pride, which she summarized from their interactions in her past life, so she didn’t force him.

As for the dicine field, Long Yue didn’t plan for her master to revamp everything, but let him attach his title to it, so that in future investigations, it wouldn’t be traced back to her.

Dazhou imposes stringent restrictions on officials, one being that they cannot possess large-scale shops and properties under their na, otherwise, collusion between officials and rchants would leave ordinary people no room to survive?

Long Yue entrusted the embroidery shop and dicine field one to Yun Niang and Duanmu Nan respectively to eliminate future troubles.

"Sister Yue, I noticed you’ve been particularly busy these few days, I’ve co by several tis, and you weren’t ho."

Yang Zhuoya was fiddling with embroidery threads, her eyes glued to the pattern on the embroidery surface, not looking up, rely inquiring casually.

But Long Yue knew there was truth beneath the words; if she revealed too much, ultimately the one to suffer would be herself.

She chuckled softly, also busying herself with her embroidery piece, "Just nothing much, these days I haven’t been feeling too well, so went to see the doctor a few tis, but they said there’s nothing wrong."

Long Yue nonchalantly found an excuse, but Yang Zhuoya stopped what she was doing, "Sister Yue, have you lost appetite for food?"

"Mm..."

"Then... have you been vomiting?"

"Uhh?"

Long Yue was taken aback, looking at her in surprise, only to see an indescribable smile on her face, "That must be it! Sister Yue, you should go see a better doctor!"

Long Yue felt the shadow fall over her mind; how could she not know what this was?

These are symptoms of pregnancy, but she... just had her period the other day!

"Sister Yang, don’t tease , that’s not the case, just two days ago, I... just finished it!"

Long Yue lightly nudged her.

Yang Zhuoya suddenly understood, looked puzzled, "Didn’t you tell you’ve been married for a year and a half? Logically, you should already have..."

What she said earlier didn’t matter, but when she spoke now, Long Yue was also a bit upset.

She gently patted her own belly, mumbling: "Yes... logically, it should be the case, but why haven’t there been any signs?"
