Chapter 82 Warning
"On the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month, the soybean oil shop on Qingyu Street will open. Madam Meng, please keep your promise."

Madam Meng tore the handkerchief in her hand and said, "I accept the loss. I will bring my daughter to your house to congratulate you personally."

"Very good," Tang Zhao said with a smile, "Then the Song's soybean oil shop will be looking forward to seeing Madam Meng and Miss Meng."

Madam Meng clutched the torn handkerchief tightly, suppressing the urge to yell and slap someone. "I suddenly remembered that I have some matters to attend to back home. My daughter and I will take our leave now."

Madam Meng waved her sleeves and left. Meng Shu'er looked at Tang Zhao unwillingly and hurriedly followed her.

"Amitabha, now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, please feel free to do as you please," Master Qingning turned and left.

"Master, wait for me," Tang Zhao chased him into the courtyard, stopped him and started to question him, "Master Qingning, why are you only making things worse?"

Master Qingning asked sharply, "Isn't it because Donor Tang has made too many enemies?"

"Me?" Tang Zhao pointed at herself with her beautiful eyes wide open. "What does it have to do with me?"

Master Qingning counted them one by one, "Young lady of the Marquis of Zhongyong, young lady of the Prince of Xuan, and the lady and young lady of the Meng Mansion."

"Wait, wait, the first two have a grudge against me, but the Meng family..." Tang Zhao thought about it carefully and said with certainty, "I have never dealt with the Meng family."

The last time someone came to the Meng Mansion for the Warm Winter Banquet, she was so busy that she didn’t even have time to say a word to Old Madam Meng, let alone the other members of the Meng family!

Master Qingning saw that Tang Zhao was genuinely confused. He looked around and made sure that no one was around before he said softly, "Donor Meng admires Donor Gu."

Tang Zhao:.
Tang Zhao held his forehead with his hand, then he was filled with grief and indignation: If you like Gu Ci, then go after her. Why are you making herself uncomfortable when you come to her?!

He is really seriously ill!

"I thought that Donor Gu, being Donor Tang's family member, would definitely help me fulfill Donor Tang's request and successfully introduce soybean oil to pilgrims."

"As soon as I opened my mouth, Donor Gu became extremely agitated and interrupted me," Master Qingning slowly explained. "Then Donor Bai arrived and, through subtle words, tricked Donor Gu into thinking soybean oil was animal oil. He even deliberately reminded Donor Gu of the sesame oil pastry."

"Then, Benefactor Gu started to make a fuss."

Master Qingning's tone was full of helplessness. It was obvious that Gu Xuan's stupidity had shattered his imagination.

Master Qingning was afraid that stupidity would be contagious through memories, so he quickly threw Gu Xuan out of his mind and asked, "Didn't Donor Tang go down the mountain?"

Why are you back?

Tang Zhao felt heartbroken whenever she thought of this. When she and Gu Ci reached the mountain gate, they were stopped by a wealthy man who knelt down and begged her to give him the opportunity to have Master Qing'an interpret the fortune.

Although Tang Zhao felt that this was wrong, he couldn't resist the fact that the rich family gave him so much!
One hundred thousand taels, one hundred thousand taels of silver!

Tang Zhao was immediately attracted and took the rich man to find Master Qing'an, but failed.

Master Qing'an insisted that this was not her fortune and refused to interpret it no matter what.

Tang Zhao was extremely sad. Watching the rich man walking down the mountain in grief was like watching one hundred thousand taels of silver leaving her.

My heart aches, so much so that I can’t breathe.

Just as she was walking back in a trance, she happened to meet Zhixin who came out to ask for help. Tang Zhao turned her grief and anger into strength and rushed over to start a fight with him.

Master Qingning smiled politely and lit a candle for the abbot in his heart.

Tang Zhao said goodbye to Master Qingning and turned to go down the mountain. Next to the carriage, Gu Ci was looking towards the mountain gate.

Gu Ci looked him up and down for a long time without making any expression, then asked, "You didn't do anything?"

They are all women from aristocratic families. A few words of scolding are no big deal, but it would be difficult if they started fighting.

Tang Zhao thought about how all the misfortunes today were caused by Gu Ci, the malevolent man who attracted many women to him, so he glared at him and said unhappily, "No, I only hit your sister!" Gu Xuan pushed the carriage open angrily, "Tang Zhao! You are such a bully!" Why did he hit her instead of Meng Shuer?
Tang Zhao was feeling depressed and had no idea where to vent his frustrations, so he rolled up his sleeves, walked around Gu Ci, strode over, grabbed Gu Xuan's arm, and went back to the carriage.

"What are you doing? Tang Zhao, let me go, ah, ah, ah ah ah!"

Gu Ci pursed his lips and got into the car after an incense stick.

In the carriage, Tang Zhao had rolled up his sleeves and was sitting aside drinking tea, while Gu Xuan, with messy hair and tattered clothes, was huddled in the corner farthest from Tang Zhao.

Gu Ci thought about it and sat next to Tang Zhao.

Tang Zhao glanced at him and continued to say to Gu Xuan, "If you dare to disrespect me in front of this princess again, I will beat you up every time I see you. Do you hear me?!"

Seeing that Gu Ci had no intention of protecting her at all, Gu Xuan burst into tears out of grievance.

"Why are you crying? Speak!" Tang Zhao slammed the table and said, "Did you hear me?"

Gu Xuan was startled and sobbed, "Listen, I heard it."

Only then did Tang Zhao let her go.

"Sister Xuan, Sister Xuan, are you crying?" A voice came from outside the carriage.

Gu Xuan was overjoyed, "Sister Bai!" and was about to get out of the car.

Tang Zhao glared at her, "Are you looking for a fight again?"

Gu Xuan shrank back into the corner in fear.

Tang Zhao stood up and sat on the other side, opened the car window, and was not surprised to see Bai Rouyin's worried face.

Bai Rouyin was suddenly shocked when she saw Tang Zhao and didn't react for a moment. Her worried and surprised expressions looked particularly funny.

"Why is it Princess Zhaoshan?"

"This is my carriage, and the person sitting inside is naturally my carriage. Who do you think it is, Miss Bai?"

Bai Rouyin looked at the carriage given by the emperor to the princess and bit her lip and said, "Is Sister Xuan in the carriage? I thought I heard Sister Xuan crying just now."

"The little girl is very delicate and cries loudly at the slightest provocation. You'll get used to it," Tang Zhao raised an eyebrow. "This princess, as her sister-in-law, doesn't take it seriously, but Miss Bai is so concerned. If you don't know, you'd think Miss Bai is Gu Xuan's biological sister-in-law."

Bai Rouyin was stunned. She didn't expect Tang Zhao's words to be so embarrassing.

The cold voice of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery's wife rang through the carriage, "Princess Zhaoshan, please be careful with your words! Rouyin is engaged to the Yang family and has nothing to do with Prince Xuan's Palace!"

"The wife of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery is truly forgetful. It's only been a short time, and you've already forgotten about the Warm Winter Banquet?" Tang Zhao scoffed. "Why not invite the wife of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery and the young lady to visit the island in the heart of the palace lake today?"

"You!" The wife of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery was furious, but she was too guilty to say anything.

"Miss Bai has such a big handle in my hands, yet she still dares to show off in front of me," Tang Zhao sighed. "Should I praise Miss Bai for her courage or her thick skin?"

Bai Rouyin's face turned pale.

"This is the second time today, Miss Bai," Tang Zhao looked directly into Bai Rouyin's eyes. "With me, Tang Zhao, three times is the limit."

"If it happens again, don't blame me, Tang Zhao, for being cruel and ruthless."

Tang Zhao closed the window and the carriage started moving slowly.

Bai Rouyin sat stiffly in the carriage for a long time. Tang Zhao's cold eyes and tone pierced into her heart like an ice cone, making Bai Rouyin shiver all over.

Zhao Zhao: You can steal my husband, but you can’t destroy my plan to make money!
