*A breeze springs up and creates waves on the water (idiom) : flourishing, thriving, prosperous.

Chang Ping found it hard to believe. 

The youngest son of the Wei family was notorious for being inhumane. 

Princess Hui’an, who grew up with him as childhood sweethearts, once jumped off the city tower for him. And he didn’t even blink his eyelids. 

If it weren’t for the timely intervention of the secret guards, Princess Hui’an would have fallen to her death. 

There was also Princess Lingxi, his own cousin. She fell into the lake right in front of him, but he just walked away. 

Because of this, General Wei gave him dozens of lashes and punished him by kneeling in the ancestral hall during the freezing winter. 

That man had a heart of stone, so how could he care about the life or death of a mere village girl? 

Young Master Xiang smiled and said, “It’s getting more and more interesting.” 

Chang Ping suddenly said, “Young Master! I have come up with a good idea! Since he cares so much about that girl, why don’t we…… abduct her!” 

“Young Master Jing!” 

Another servant’s report came from outside the door. 

Chang Ping glanced at his young master and immediately shut his mouth. 

Jing Yi stepped inside and said, “Biaoge*.” 

*Biaoge (表哥) : older male cousin via female line.

Young Master Xiang greeted him warmly, “Where have you been? Looking so sweaty like that.”

Jing Yi replied, “I just returned from the post station.” 

Young Master Xiang paused for a moment and said, “Has there been any news from the capital?” 

Jing Yi nodded, “Your marriage with Miss Qin has been set, it’s in the fifth month. The palace is urging you to return as soon as possible.” 

Young Master Xiang put down his teacup helplessly and said, “I understand.” 

“Biaoge, if there’s nothing else, I will take my leave.” Jing Yi said. 

Young Master Xiang said, “Go ahead.” 

After thinking for a moment, he said again, “Jing Yi, are you hiding something from me?” 

Jing Yi asked, “Biaoge, what do you mean by that?” 

Young Master Xiang smiled gently and said, “It’s nothing, I’m just saying it casually. You should understand that the only person I can trust around me is you. You won’t betray me, right?” 

Jing Yi was taken aback for a moment and said, “Of course, I won’t betray biaoge.” 

Young Master Xiang seemed satisfied and smiled faintly. 

Jing Yi got up and left. 

As he reached the door, he suddenly stopped. 

“Biaoge, if you wish to kill someone, I can do it for you. It’s just… don’t harm her.”  

……

Su Xiaoxiao visited Shopkeeper Sun’s residence to discuss the matter of opening a store. 

Shopkeeper Sun was moved to tears. 

After running a street stall for so long, were they finally going to have their own storefront? 

“Where do you want to open your shop?” Shopkeeper Sun asked. 

Su Xiaoxiao said, “The cloth shop across from Jinji.” 

Shopkeeper Sun: You want to compete with Jinji! 

Coincidentally, so am I. 

When two like-minded people discussed matters, everything went exceptionally smoothly. 

They immediately agreed and headed to the cloth shop.  

The cloth shop was being sublet before the end of its lease due to poor management and financial difficulties.

However, since it has a good location and the fact that the owner of the cloth shop witnessed Suji’s growth, he felt that Suji had earned a lot of money and wanted to take advantage by overcharging them. 

But what an unfortunate coincidence, Shopkeeper Sun and Su Xiaoxiao were both shrewd negotiators. No matter how much the cloth shop owner tried to talk them into raising the price, they refused to budge.

“You can go and ask around, where else can you find a shop more prosperous than mine? Girl, didn’t you start by setting up a stall in front of my store? And didn’t your business boom right away? I’m telling you, my place has great Feng Shui!”  

Su Xiaoxiao replied calmly, “Then why are you going out of business?” 

The cloth shop owner: “……” 

“You’re clearly trying to compete with Jinji! There won’t be another vacant shop around here!” 

The owner of the cloth shop originally rented the shop for 20 taels a month, totaling 720 taels for five years, and there were still three years left. But he wanted to double the price and sell it to Su Xiaoxiao.  

Would Su Xiaoxiao fall for that?
