The Humble Family's Daughter Has A Spatial Pocket! novel Chapter 1210

Chapter 1210: Chapter 1032, Greed Knows No Bounds

Fangji Silk and Satin Shop.

Since Feng Liangji arrived in Xiliang not very early, by the time he got to Bamu Town, all the shops in good locations had already been snapped up.

The shop only had over a hundred square meters, and even such a small place, he obtained only by invoking the name of the Prince Residence of Weiyuan.

In the back courtyard of the shop, after Sun Jiayue returned, she felt somewhat uneasy, constantly recalling the Madam she had just seen, wondering who she might be.

No wonder she couldn’t remember; in truth, Sun Jiayue had only met Daohua a few times, and that was during the engagement of Feng Liangji and Li Zixuan, which was already a matter over a decade ago.

Really unable to recall, Sun Jiayue couldn’t be bothered to think further, she called a maid over and asked, "What is the master doing now?"

The maid said, "The boss is upfront greeting the owners of the Fang and Xu Families."

Sun Jiayue curled her lips, "They must be here again to ask my husband to help them rent a shop."

The maid smiled, "Who could blame them? It’s so hard to rent a shop here in Bamu Town. If it weren’t for the master leveraging his connections, our family might be like those itinerant traders, carting goods around to sell everywhere."

Hearing this, Sun Jiayue’s expression turned somewhat unsightly.

The reason her husband could quickly establish connections in Xiliang was all because of Li Zixuan. The thought of Li Zixuan sitting in the position of the main mistress of the Feng Family made her feel extremely aggrieved.

She was in no way inferior to Li Zixuan, yet she was subjected to a position beneath her, effectively making her seem lesser.

It was all because Li Zixuan had a good aunt!

No matter how discontented Sun Jiayue was, she could only swallow her feelings now, knowing that unless the Yan Family fell, she would never surpass Li Zixuan in this lifetime.

Soon, Sun Jiayue’s face revealed a smile again.

What of being the legitimate wife? Although her husband respected Li Zixuan, he doted on her even more, and the one he took to travel and enjoy the sights was her.

The relationship between her husband and Li Zixuan was more a partnership of interests, rather than one of affection.

Her situation was different; she and her husband grew up together like childhood sweethearts, clearly more valued in his heart. Otherwise, when she claimed herself to be Madam Feng in public, her husband would not have allowed it unresisted.

With this thought, Sun Jiayue’s mood immediately brightened, instructing the maid to prepare some pastries, preparing to deliver them to Feng Liangji upfront.

In the front shop, two middle-aged men clad in brocade were lavishing compliments on Feng Liangji, who was a generation younger than them.

In Zhongzhou, the Fang and Xu Families were considered friendly toward the Feng Family. It was somewhat uncomfortable for the elders to seek favor from their junior.

But what could they do?

In Xiliang, they had absolutely no connections, whereas the Feng Family had the support of the Prince Residence of Weiyuan!

"Dear nephew, we have expended some silver to grease a Government Office official, and he mentioned that there seems to be a batch of shops about to be leased out soon."

"There are just too many people coming to Bamu Town for business now, we simply can’t compete for a spot. Look, could you help us secure a shop?"

Feng Liangji showed a troubled expression: "My uncles, you know how hard it is to rent a shop here, I really can’t make any guarantees."

The Patriarch of the Fang Family immediately laughed and said, "Dear nephew, you’re being too modest. Others might not understand, but do we not? You have a genuine kinship with the Prince Residence of Weiyuan. If you speak up, would the Government Office dare not act?"

The Patriarch of the Du Family continued, "Rest assured, if you help us, we won’t let you suffer." As he said this, he drew several silver notes from his sleeve.
