Chapter 538: Chapter 539, Matchmaking
Seeing Yun Zihan so confident, Yun Jinnian was also pleased.
"Second sister, I heard that your dowry was all exchanged? Is that true?"
Yun Zihan nodded, "Not just the dowry, but the betrothal gifts as well. Among the things sent by the Liao family, the good and valuable items were all switched out!" Yun Zihan said, feeling aggrieved in her heart.
Those were gifts from the Liao family, but they were exchanged for Yun Muyou.
To say she didn’t hate it would be a lie.
Yun Jinnian looked at Yun Zihan and knew the hatred in her heart.
She hated Mrs. He just as much.
After a moment of thought, she grasped Yun Zihan’s hand tightly, "Second sister, why don’t we partner up and open a shop together!"
"Ah..."
Yun Zihan was utterly astonished.
"I have three shops in the best locations in Capital City. I originally planned to lease two of them and keep one to sell rouge and face powder with Tianci. We’ve decided to sell expensive ones, which really are pricey, and we have the same customers buying over and over. If we could open another shop selling mid-range products, we could earn quite a lot if the business goes well!"
Yun Zihan did not understand everything Yun Jinnian said, but she heard that Yun Jinnian wanted to open a shop with her.
"But I don’t know how to make rouge or even which rouge and face powders are good!"
"I know how to make rouge and face powder, and you don’t need to worry about manpower or supplies, second sister. I will arrange all that. I just can’t let people know the shop is mine, and you also have to use the shop to help me gather information!"
There’s no such thing as a free lunch, a point Yun Jinnian hoped Yun Zihan understood.
She could pull Yun Zihan in to make silver, or she could arrange for someone else.
"Fourth sister, don’t worry, I know what to do!"
Yun Zihan was no fool, and she wouldn’t foolishly push silver out the door.
Especially in the Liao family’s situation where income was not covering expenses.
"In that case, let’s settle it with the second sister like this, and as for the rest, we can talk in detail in a few days," Yun Jinnian said, suddenly craving mooncakes.
Yun Zihan hurriedly fetched one and fed it to Yun Jinnian.
Yun Jinnian took a bite from Yun Zihan’s hand and narrowed her eyes slightly, "Mmm, delicious!"
It was fragrantly soft, sweet but not cloying, and tasted excellent.
Seeing Yun Jinnian’s enjoyment, Yun Zihan picked out another flavor to feed her.
Yun Jinnian actually reveled in being pampered and just smiled gently, allowing Yun Zihan to feed her.
Their sisterly affection grew.
"Second sister, did you make these mooncakes? Next time I visit your house, I want to eat more!"
Yun Zihan laughed, "So you really didn’t listen when I said earlier that someone else sent these!"
"..."
Yun Jinnian thought hard, "You said they were sent by Brother Feng, who is he?"
"Last year’s Top Scorer, Feng Wushuang, who now serves at Hanlin Academy, a third-rank official, and has taken Elder Chen as his mentor!"
Elder Chen is the emperor’s former teacher, and with Feng Wushuang taking him as a mentor, his future is bright, and it’s likely he will enter the cabinet eventually.
"Oh, I don’t know him!"
Yun Zihan smiled.
Thinking of the graceful, well-mannered, and amiable Feng Wushuang, she felt he was very well suited to Yun Jinnian.
Especially since the old lady of the Feng family didn’t interfere with affairs, and Feng Wushuang basically managed the Feng household, which was short-staffed and had none of the trivial matters caused by numerous aunts and uncles.
If it could happen...
At that thought, Yun Zihan sneakily glanced at Yun Jinnian.
Perhaps it was because of the Auspicious Water she received, Yun Zihan felt Yun Jinnian had lost her greenness and was tinged with charm.
Her already breathtaking beauty was even more enchanting now.
Every move she made was incomparably graceful, almost unreal.
