The husband I snatched halfway through his life is strange.

Chapter 316 definitely deserves a beating.
Ning Suchan didn't really want to say more.

But the girl's gaze made her patient enough.

Before she knew it, Ning Suchan had been talking a lot.

"Use this money to buy another shop, let the people below manage it, and do business again. Repeat this process, and the business will last a long time."

"Everyone in this world says that gold and silver are vulgar things, but people all over the world rely on these vulgar things to make a living."

A warm breeze blew, and Ning Suchan's voice drifted over.

"The title of the young mistress of the Duke of Shun's mansion is given to you. It is the power that allows you to walk among women and be fawned over by them, who dare not offend you. But once you have money, learn your own skills, stand tall, and have a peaceful household without causing trouble, you will feel at ease. That will be your world."

Yu Tingwan paused slightly in the hand holding the calligraphy brush on the desk.

Compared to Ning Suchan, her vision was indeed narrow.

It's because all she thinks about is making money.

Yu Tingwan also knew that she had much to learn.

But she is not as lazy as she was when she was a child when she was studying!
What I'm going to teach today is naturally the simplest thing. Ning Suqian glanced at Granny Ru.

As if understanding, the old woman brought over an abacus and approached Yu Tingwan, saying, "What the Crown Princess will learn today is how to use an abacus."

Yu Tingwan: ? ? ?

She froze for a moment.

"Aren't you going to look at the ledgers?"

She pointed to the several baskets of account books.

The old woman said gently, "Those are what the mistress wants to see these days. Since the news of the young master's death came before the New Year, they've all been piling up."

"This old servant has a good plan, and can teach the Crown Princess."

Yu Tingwan held Ning Suchan in high esteem.

Yu Tingwan thought it was very simple!
After all, she learns everything very quickly!
Yao Yao is so smart!
Yu Tingwan: "After I finish learning, what should I learn next?"

Ning Suqian was about to look through the account books when she heard this and asked coldly, "How many days will it take you to finish learning?"

Yu Tingwan: ?
Ning Suchan: "It has to be something I think is right."

The young woman humbly sought guidance.

"How do I know when it's done?"

Ning Suchan said calmly, "I can be quick with my eyes open and I can also dial with my eyes closed. I'm always accurate."

Yu Tingwan didn't even need to ask what constituted "fast" anymore.

She saw Ning Suchan spread out the account book, her gaze fixed on it, while her right hand moved nimbly, like a blur, the abacus beads bobbing and making a continuous clicking sound.

Ning Suchan quickly turned the page.

But the hand that was turning the abacus never stopped.

Yu Tingwan: ? ! !

Her passionate flame seemed to have been extinguished, only a small part of it.

The old woman taught her very carefully, and Yu Tingwan learned quickly with a positive attitude, but her movements were not yet proficient.

The maid who came to add tea and snacks could hear the crisp, clear sound of the abacus beads, as well as the gentle, leisurely sound.

But it doesn't feel out of place.

The girl practiced non-stop all morning.

My hands are sore.

Her movements became slower and slower.

She would occasionally glance up at Ning Suchan, who sat upright and meticulously.

Just then, an old woman came from the gatehouse and whispered to the maid waiting outside.

The maid pondered for a moment, then stepped into the courtyard.

"Madam, Young Mistress."

Ning Suchan finished calculating another book, and after verifying that there were no errors, she stopped.

"explain."

"The Minister of Works, along with his wife and daughter, requested an audience, saying they were there to apologize to the young mistress."

Ning Suchan glanced at Yu Tingwan beside her. Although the girl moved slowly, she didn't stop.

Their attitude, however, was correct.

Ning Suqian lowered her head and drank her tea, her eyes revealing no emotion: "Yu Shi, what do you think?"

This was a sudden opportunity to test her.

Yu Tingwan sat up straight and pondered for a moment.

"If it were the Zhou family mother and daughter, I would decide whether to see them or not, but if the Minister of Works were to come, that would be a different story."

“He is an official in the court. Even if his official rank is not as high as my husband’s, whether he fears the Duke of Shun’s mansion or the Grand Tutor’s mansion, he is still truly apologetic. He probably knows he is in the wrong this time.”

"I'm new to the capital. If I don't show my face, even if the Zhou family doesn't dare to say anything, they will inevitably gossip about me and make me difficult to deal with. I don't care about my reputation, but it's not worth ruining it for the sake of the Zhou family."

Therefore, it should be seen.

"But if we forgive them so easily with just a few words, it would make us, the people of the Duke of Shun's mansion, seem so easy to fool."

Yu Tingwan: "My daughter-in-law will see how it goes."

After speaking, she looked at Ning Suchan with a smile. Ning Suchan didn't give her a second glance, but simply put down the teacup in her hand.

"Why don't you go then?"

That's right!
Yu Tingwan stood up: "You're right, why isn't anyone praising me?"

She muttered to herself, "They're being stingy with these words."

Ning Suchan: ? ? ?

I heard it.

You don't need to specifically get close to her to whisper when you're muttering to yourself.

so rude.

After Yu Tingwan left with Tan Jiang, Granny Ru couldn't help but burst out laughing.

As soon as she took the lead, the servants in the courtyard covered their mouths. The usual lifeless atmosphere was gone.

As the old woman said, "Since the Crown Princess came, our courtyard has become much more lively."

"I wonder what kind of adoptive parents they were to raise a princess like her."

Ning Suchan remained silent for a long time.

What kind?

Think of Gui Zhi, who always sticks to the old ways in front of her.

She's not like that at all.

Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.

The Zhou family members were waiting in the living room.

After a short while, Madam Zhou spoke.

"Master, is the Wei family going to leave us hanging? Why don't we go back first and come back another time?"

"Shut up."

The Minister of Works sneered: "Do you think everyone is as brainless as you?"

Will people not come?
The question we should be considering is whether or not to treat them well once they arrive!
Being scolded for no reason, Madam Zhou was indignant, but dared not show her resentment on her face.

Zhou Yurou remained quiet and composed, dressed in plain clothes. With the Crown Prince's funeral banquet just over, who would dare to dress up in a flamboyant manner? Therefore, she resembled an even more pure white flower, making her all the more endearing.

A clanging sound came from inside.

Before anyone arrives, the sound comes first.

Zhou Yurou looked towards the doorway and saw a girl wearing a cloud-brocade skirt with delicate orchids embroidered on the hem. The orchids were exquisitely embroidered and lifelike as she moved.

Her eyes darkened.

It would be a lie to say I'm not jealous.

Lord Zhou quickly got up.

"The General's wife."

He arrived quickly, his face devoid of obsequiousness, but his attitude was respectful.

"My wife said some unpleasant things the other day, which was really inappropriate. I have specially prepared a generous gift for you, and I hope you will accept it."

As he spoke, he winked at the mother and daughter behind him.

Zhou Yurou was delicate and timid, and dared not cause any trouble. She bowed to Yu Tingwan in the morning.

Madam Zhou took a deep breath, forced a smile, and bowed slightly.

"I'm really sorry, I'm a bit muddle-headed and never think before I speak. Please don't hold it against me, Mrs. Wei."

"Look at my mouth, I really deserve to be hit."

Yu Tingwan is gentle and kind.

"This is unacceptable. Madam Zhou has come to apologize, so why is she suggesting hitting me?"

"Although you look down on me and are the best at gossiping and slandering me behind my back, you never forget to talk behind my mother-in-law's back, trying to ruin our relationship. Every single one of these things is true..."

She paused.

Smiling.

"It's time to hit."

[Note: The content of this book has been modified!!!]

Just in case some of you haven't seen the comments yet, I'm posting this again.

For the sake of character development and the advancement of later plot, and also to avoid being bogged down in the old, clichéd plot of a fake heiress harboring resentment.

(Revised around noon on the 19th. I suggest those who saw it early go back and take a look, as there are significant changes.)

Everyone should refresh the page to see the changes.

If that doesn't work, try removing the bookshelf first and then adding it back. PS: I've tried this on Qidian.

Chapter 300 Gu Wu (minor revision) [Her gaze lingered between Yu Tingwan and Gu Wu, whose face had turned pale upon hearing this—changed to: she still had the mind to peel peanuts for the Empress Dowager while her gaze lingered between Gu Wu and Yu Tingwan.]

Chapter 305 Gu Wu (minor revision)

I just saw Gu Wu. She's usually so arrogant, but her eyes were swollen like walnuts—that's strange. She even asked me about you, and whether we were familiar. Is she sick?
