Chapter 597 - 597 These two people were not just ordinarily evil.
597 These two people were not just ordinarily evil.
With a single glance, Shi Qingluo knew exactly what Ge Chunying was thinking.
She was indeed an ungrateful wolf.
If Ge Chunying jumped out to fight with her, she would still have a little human touch.
However, not only did she pull Ge Chunru to retreat, but she also apologized with a gentle and reasonable look that affirmed that her sister was in the wrong.
Although it was indeed a good way to deal with the matter, it also meant that she was too cold-blooded.
If Ge Chunru was in the same position, she would most likely find fault with her and defend her sister.
However, this also showed how sad Ge Chunru was.
She looked at Ge Chunru and said, “You’ve paid so much for this. Aren’t you a joke?”
She did not sympathize with Ge Chunru at all.
She only felt that she deserved it.
A family’s education environment was very important.
Ge Chunru had raised her younger brother and sister like a mother.
She was selfish and cruel, and she indulged her younger brother and sister without any limits.
That was why she raised two cold-blooded and cruel ingrates.
Ge Chunying, in particular, not only learned Ge Chunru’s ruthlessness, but she also surpassed her.
Ge Chunru was stunned and asked, “What do you mean?”
Then she straightened her back and glared at Shi Qingluo. “Don’t you dare humiliate me.”
Shi Qingluo sneered. You think too highly of yourself. “With my current status, what can’t I do to you?”
She cast a glance at Ge Chunying.
“Actually, it’s quite easy for you to raise more than five thousand taels. Just let your sister go to the deputy governor’s office to find Deputy Governor Xiao. This small amount of money is a small matter.”
Ge Chunying controlled herself not to change her expression, but her eyes shrank.
She looked at Shi Qingluo and said, “I don’t know what Princess Fubao is talking about.”
Could Shi Qingluo have discovered her private affair with Xiao Yuanshi?
Shi Qing’s lips curled up. “As long as you know it well in your heart.”
She turned around and said to those who had stopped in their tracks, “Let’s go and have some tea.”
She would not be so kind as to tell Ge Chunru.
It would be even more painful for Ge Chunru if she slowly realized that her younger brother and sister were all ungrateful.
She only said this to bring some leads to Ge Chunyi and Mdm Niu, who were hiding nearby.
Although these two people were stupid and vicious, they were much more sensitive than Ge Chunru in these aspects.
Sure enough, Ge Chunyi and Mdm Niu both looked at Ge Chunying as if they were thinking about something.
Ge Chunru saw that Shi Qingluo had left and then said to Ge Chunying, “Let’s go home.”
She didn’t think too much about it and only felt that Shi Qingluo was trying to humiliate her.
Ge Chunying breathed a sigh of relief when she saw her sister’s expression.
Fortunately, her sister didn’t think too much about it and nodded. “Okay!”
Then she turned around and glared at Ge Chunyi. “Hurry up and follow up.”
She did not have a good attitude towards her brother at all.
Seeing his sister’s attitude, Ge Chunyi sneered in his heart but did not say anything.
A broken shoe that the second prince had divorced with actually dared to be prideful in front of her brother.
He temporarily suppressed his rage as he remembered what Mdm Niu had said about Ge Chunying having possibly hidden some money with her.
Before Shi Qingluo entered the house, she said to a maidservant beside her, “You can go to the carriage and wait for us.”
This was the expert that her young husband had placed by her side.
She felt that there was something wrong with the manager just now.
The purpose of luring Ge Chunyi to lose money and letting Ge Chunru raise money might not be so simple.
She also carefully observed Liang Mingwen’s expression and was certain that he wasn’t the one behind this.
If her feeling was right, there was someone instructing the manager.
Therefore, she sent this maidservant, who was good at tracking and investigation, out to investigate.
The maidservant had been by Shi Qingluo’s side for quite some time, so she immediately understood what she meant. “Yes!”
Shi Qingluo and the others entered the room and sat down.
Liang Mingwen ordered tea to be served.
He pretended to be curious and asked Shi Qingluo, “Did you have a grudge against those two women just now?
“If you don’t like them, I’ll ask the manager to help you vent your anger.”
If she agreed, then she would owe him a favor.
Shi Qingluo shook her head. “Thank you for your kind intentions, fourth young master. There’s no need for that.”
She looked at him and said jokingly, “I saw the way Ge Chunying looked at you just now. Her eyes were filled with love. Fourth young master, you are really charming.”
Ge Chunying’s appearance just now was mainly for him.
If she wanted to climb up the social ladder, Liang Mingwen was a good choice.
She was afraid that Liang Mingwen would fall into their trap because Ge Chunying and that scumbag dad had joined forces, so her words were actually a reminder although it sounded like a joke.
She didn’t want Ge Chunying to get too close to Liang Mingwen and cause trouble.
Liang Mingwen was stunned.
Then he didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “Princess Fubao, you must be joking. I wouldn’t want that kind of woman, even if you gave her to me.”
He had previously schemed against Ge Chunru to steal the map from Xiao Yuanshi, so he had naturally investigated Ge Chunru’s background.
Ge Chunru suddenly had a younger sister recently, so he also sent someone to investigate.
He found out that Ge Chunying had “passed on from illness” because of the second prince and was sent to the northern border.
He didn’t have any strange hobbies that would attract such a woman.
He hadn’t even looked at Ge Chunying before, but after hearing Shi Qingluo’s words, he was disgusted by her.
Shi Qingluo laughed. “I also think the fourth young master would not like it. However, no harm being more careful. Otherwise, if you get pestered, it’ll be troublesome.”
Liang Mingwen didn’t take it to heart, but he still nodded his head. “Okay.”
After chatting for a while, he asked Shi Qingluo, “Princess, what is the craftsmen academy you were talking about? Can you tell me more about it?”
“Of course, no problem,” Shi Qingluo replied with a smile.
“My husband and I want to build a craftsman academy in Northern City. In the academy, they can learn how to build houses, how to do carpentry, how to build ships, how to build houses and bridges, how to make agricultural textile machines, and so on.
“As long as a student passes the test, hewon’t be an apprentice anymore. He’ll be an experienced craftsman.
“Also, we’ll recruit people from the entire Daliang.
“As long as they meet the requirements, they can gain admission to the school.
“If this school is successful, we hope to continue to open similar schools in other places, such as the capital, Jiangnan, Qiongzhou, and so on.
“We must cultivate a batch of outstanding and mature craftsmen.
“By then, I believe that the reputation of the craftmen academy will begin spreading in Northern City, to the northern border, and then to the entire Daliang.”
She smiled at Liang Mingwen and said, “My husband and I have the confidence to do it. Let’s see if you’ve got the foresight to leave your mark on the craftsmen academy.”
“By then, not only will the people along the northern border know about you, but people in other regions of Daliang will also know your name.” She placed the bait again.
Liang Mingwen was speechless.
Shi Qingluo was a natural public speaker.
After listening to her story, he suddenly felt that if he did not participate, he would be lacking in foresight, as if he was going to miss out on something very important.
He was naturally willing to leave his name along the northern border, or even in Daliang.
He had to give up a part of his flesh, and his heart ached.
“Which plot of land in Northern City do you want?” he asked after some thought.
Shi Qingluo hadn’t checked which lands Liang Mingwen owned, and she was about to delay the matter and say she’d think about it.
Then, Prince Yi gave her a hint with his eyes, and she immediately swallowed her words.
Then, Liang Yulin looked at Liang Mingwen and said, “I heard that the southwest lane of the city is your property. I think it’s a good place to set up a craftsmen academy.”
If he wanted to build a school, he would build a big one.
His eldest son and daughter-in-law would definitely not be interested in a small one.
Shi Qingluo was aware of the southern lanes in the city.
It was in a good location and was close to a few central streets in Northern City.
There were even cement roads outside, making it easy to get in and out.
The key was that the area was very large and was very suitable for transformation into a connected academy.
She smiled at Liang Mingwen and said, “This location is not bad. Shall we seal the deal?”
Liang Mingwen was speechless.
That was the largest piece of land he owned. These two people were not just ordinarily evil.
