Chapter 220 The Huang Family is Not Easy to Deal With
"Main wife?"
It has to be said that Shen Xiangwan was also a little scared. She did not discriminate against prostitutes. They did not steal or rob, they just wanted to survive. Moreover, this era was different from the future world. If there was any other way, which girl from a good family would be willing to become a prostitute?
But the reality is cruel. There is no place for prostitutes except brothels. No one can change the environment, at least not in a short period of time. But in this environment, Shen Xiangyue still wants to marry into an official family and become his wife. What is she thinking? Is she sure her brain is not wrong?
"No matter how much Huang Tongpan dotes on Huang Jingshu, he will not let a prostitute become his daughter-in-law."
Glancing at her indifferently, Yue Ruyan said slowly, she had been influenced since childhood and knew better than anyone how much those rich and powerful people looked down on prostitutes. Not to mention Shen Xiangyue, even she would not be in their eyes, let alone marrying her as their legal wife.
"hehe···"
With an ambiguous smile, Shen Xiangwan picked up the teacup and said, "Tell me, if I touch Shen Xiangyue, will Huang Jingshu be so angry that he will use his father's power to help her vent her anger?"
"What do you want to do?"
Hearing this, Yue Ruyan frowned slightly. Her intuition told her that this was her purpose. Could it be that she had some grudge against Huang Tongpan?
"what can I do?"
Shaking her head, Shen Xiangwan took a few sips of the cool tea. If everything went well this time, they would not only be able to replace the magistrate of Datong County, but also be able to dethrone Huang Tongpan. It would not be impossible for them to support their own people to take the position. By then, they would also have a certain say in the government office. Of course, this matter still required the cooperation of Wei Chengyi. She planned to discuss it with him when he returned to the space in the evening.
Looking at her deeply, Yue Ruyan picked up the teacup, lifted the lid with her slender fingers, and waved away the tea flowers floating on the tea. After a long while, she said leisurely, "Huang Tongpan is not an ordinary person. He has been running the Chenzhou government office for twenty years. Other officials are replaced every few years, but he has always stayed in that position. Some people may think that he cannot be transferred or promoted because there is no one above him. In fact, he himself does not want to leave. After twenty years of operation, the Huang family has already taken root in Chenzhou. They are like local emperors. Even the successive prefects dare not provoke them easily. There is no need to change places. He is not that easy to deal with."
It's not that no one had ever provoked the Huang family before, but without exception, they all failed, and everyone died miserably. She told her this not to persuade her to give up the idea of dealing with the Huang family, but to remind her that if she couldn't uproot them, she must not act rashly, otherwise she would surely suffer a fierce counterattack from the other side.
"is it?"
It seems that the Huang family is more troublesome than she imagined.
Shen Xiangwan was not an overly arrogant person. After she heard what she said, she lowered her eyes and began to think.
Seeing this, Yue Ruyan stopped talking, she believed that she was a smart person and should know what to do. Yuan Yue and Yuan Ying, who were waiting on the side, exchanged glances calmly. Until now, they finally guessed vaguely the purpose of the lady coming to Huanxi Tower in person. It must be said that her idea was very bold, they had not even taken over Datong County, and she was actually planning to take the position of the prefectural magistrate.
At the same time, Hehuan Tower.
"A very beautiful woman? How beautiful?"
After receiving the news, the madam found Shen Xiangyue again, but the latter did not take it seriously. She was very confident in her appearance and talent, and did not take others seriously at all. The only person who made her a little afraid was Yue Ruyan, the owner of Huanxilou.
"It is said that she is on par with Yue Ruyan."
The madam had a worried look on her face. If this was Yue Ruyan's new girl, they would probably never have a chance to succeed.
"On par with Yue Ruyan?"
Hearing this, Shen Xiangyue frowned slightly. How could there be another woman as beautiful as Yue Ruyan in such a remote border city? Could it be that those people outside have never seen a beautiful woman and are just bragging about it?
"Ah."
Nodding, the madam looked at her and continued, "I didn't see it with my own eyes, but I know that everyone who saw it was astonished by her beauty. I heard that even the two maids she brought with her were rare beauties."
As long as the maids of the brothel are good-looking, they will eventually become girls in the building. Because the girls in Huanxi Building suddenly all became beautiful and snatched away many of their customers, what she fears most now is that more beauties will appear.
"Let someone find out who she is."
After a brief silence, Shen Xiangyue spoke in a commanding tone.
"···yes."
The madam was subconsciously unhappy, but she had to agree on the surface. They were suppressed too badly by Huanxilou and they were relying on her to hold on. Even if she went too far, she would have to endure it for the time being.
Huanxi Building, Yue Ruyan's courtyard. "It is indeed a bit tricky, but it is not impossible. I will go back and think about it."
Since she had already guessed that she was going to take action against the Huang family, Shen Xiangwan was too lazy to hide it anymore. In a short period of time, she had already figured out how to deal with the Huang family.
"It looks like you've made your decision."
Putting down the teacup in her hand, Yue Ruyan turned her head to look at her. For some reason, she felt a little excited.
"Ah."
Nodding, Shen Xiangwan stood up by the armrest of the chair: "It's almost time for me to go back. I'll come see you next time."
Her real purpose of coming here today was not to deliver the goods, nor to find her, but to let Shen Xiangyue know that she was helping Huanxilou suppress them. It has been more than half an hour, and she should have received the news.
"Do you need help?"
After she stood up, Yue Ruyan walked towards her with light lotus steps. Because of running a brothel, even though she had a wide range of social contacts and had some friendships with many officials in the county and the government office, most people smiled on the surface but looked down on her in their hearts. In fact, because she was a woman and looked good, many people looked down on her and coveted her at the same time, which made people feel sick from the bottom of their hearts. Shen Xiangwan was not her first friend, but he was the only one who never looked down on her or had any evil thoughts of using her, so she was willing to provide some help within her ability.
"Yes, help me keep an eye on Shen Xiangyue and Huang Jingshu's movements."
Shen Xiangwan didn't be polite to her. Although their people were also monitoring Shen Xiangyue, there were some things that were more convenient for Yue Ruyan to handle.
"Well, if they have any new movements, I will send someone to inform you. Don't come in person if you don't have to. It's not good for your reputation."
Nodding, Yue Ruyan reminded her worriedly that it was precisely because she treated her as a friend that she had to consider her reputation. After all, she was a good woman and was different from her.
"Ah."
If she really cared about what others thought or said, she wouldn't have come in person today.
But seeing that she seemed to care a lot, Shen Xiangwan didn't say much, but just nodded perfunctorily. Yue Ruyan personally sent her to the door, and the appearance of the two of them undoubtedly caused quite a stir again.
"Ok?"
Just as Shen Xiangwan was about to climb onto the carriage, she suddenly felt a strong sense of resentment and murderous intent. She subconsciously raised her head and looked at the opposite side, just in time to bump into a pair of eyes that had no time to hide. However, the other party quickly withdrew and left, without giving her a chance to see clearly.
Finally it came out, it was worth her making the trip in person.
Shen Xiangwan curled her lips. Did she think that she wouldn't be able to guess who she was because she hid quickly? Besides Shen Xiangyue, who else would look at her with such resentful and murderous eyes?
"What are you looking at?"
Noticing her strangeness, Yue Ruyan looked in the direction she was looking, but saw nothing.
"Nothing, I'm leaving now, you can go back soon."
"Ah."
After the two said goodbye again, Shen Xiang got on the carriage at night. Yue Ruyan watched the carriage disappear from her sight before she walked back with peace of mind. The accompanying madam and the maid could clearly feel that she was in a good mood.
"Why is it her? Shen Xiangwan, how does she know Yue Ruyan?"
In the box on the second floor of Hehuan Building facing the street, Shen Xiangyue leaned against the wall, her face pale, her eyes filled with deep shock and fear. She never dreamed that she would actually see Shen Xiangwan.
