Chapter 1490 Extra Chapter 51
A new rice shop opened in the capital. As soon as the plaque was unveiled, the gongs and drums team invited outside started beating the drums to celebrate the occasion.
Some people who were watching gathered together to gossip: "The owner of this rice shop got his head caught in the door, and he actually opened it opposite the rice shop of Emperor Nie's family?"
"That's right. The Nie family has the backing of the Queen Mother. In recent years, it would be easy for anyone to challenge them and shut down their business. Many people have lost everything, and some have even lost their families."
"Sigh, I don't know how long this rice shop can last?"
"Okay, please don't say a word. People are open for business, but if they are not open, you will be badmouthed by others."
At this time, someone interjected: "Don't underestimate this family, they are the former family of the current Holy Emperor."
When everyone heard this, they all came together: "This is not a joke."
Someone said: "Brother, what do you know? Tell me quickly and let everyone listen."
The young man said proudly: "The owner of this rice shop is named Ai. He was originally the in-law family of the young general of the General Mansion, who was later recognized by the royal family as King Duan and is now the Holy Emperor."
"The Ai family has the support of the Holy Emperor and the General's Mansion, so the Nie family may have to think carefully about it."
The merchants nearby heard the conversation of these people, and some people glanced at Nie's shop with disdain: "Just watch, there will be something good to watch in the future."
"I hope the Holy Emperor and the General's Mansion can really protect the Ai family. Otherwise, with the despicability of the Nie family, I'm afraid they really won't be able to survive for a few days."
These merchants are often bullied by the Nie family because they have the Queen Mother as their backer. They dare to be angry but dare not speak out. I really hope that the Ai family can teach the Nie family some lessons.
But the Ai family really lived up to expectations. After the Nie family made trouble for them several times, they fought back fiercely.
The Queen Mother is indeed the supporter of the Nie family, but the Queen Mother only gives face to the old lady of the Nie family. After all, she is her cousin. The remaining juniors have handed over signs many times, but the Queen Mother will not pay attention to them at all.
It is precisely because of this that Mrs. Nie has the confidence to speak the truth in the house.
The Nie family thought it would be inappropriate if things continued like this for a long time.
Only then did Nie Huiqing, the eldest daughter of the Nie family, be sent to Qingcheng to pick up the old lady back to Beijing, and Nie Huiqing was given the opportunity to fall in love with Xiao Chenrui at first sight in Qingcheng.
It's a pity that Mrs. Nie did not turn around the situation after she returned to Beijing, and the Nie family's business was gradually eaten up by several large merchants.
It was not until the end that everyone realized that the rise of the Ai family was the work of the Holy One, in order to uproot the Nie family.
The Ai family completed the tasks assigned by the Holy Lord. They were not arrogant and complacent. Instead, they behaved more low-key and did business with integrity. They did not do anything to bully others because they had the support of the Holy Lord and the General's Mansion behind them. The Ai family quickly replaced
The Nie family became the largest royal merchant in Beimo.
Madam Ai was a righteous person, and she was filial to her children and grandchildren in her later years. In addition, Yunyi often gave her some health-preserving pills that she made herself, so she is still in good health now.
For the long-term development of the Ai family, and in order not to embarrass the Holy Lord and the General's Mansion, Mrs. Ai added a few more rules to the original family rules. The tutor was quite strict.
No matter who it is, as long as it violates the family rules, no matter who intercedes, it will not work. The matter must be handled according to the family rules.
When the maid came in, Mrs. Ai was leaning on the rocking chair and almost fell asleep. When she heard some movement, she opened her eyes.
The little maid stepped forward and said, "Old madam, someone is coming from the palace."
Mrs. Ai smiled and said: "I am already an old person, so I don't have to worry about it all the time."
The little girl stepped forward and helped the old lady sit up, and said with a smile: "When the Supreme Emperor and the Supreme Emperor were on the throne, as long as there were rare tribute items or food, they would immediately order someone to send a copy to our house.
Your Majesty, this is still the case today, and the old lady is so lucky."
When Mrs. Ai heard this, the smile appeared on her face: "Yes, I have raised a good daughter in my life, and it is all because of her. It would be great if my Xinyi is still there.
"
The little maid's eyes turned red when she saw the old lady smiling, and she quickly knelt down in fright: "Old lady, this slave deserves to die, for reminding you of something sad."
Mrs. Ai stretched out her hand to pull the person up: "It's not your fault. When people get old, they always think of the people and things in the past."
She missed her Xinyi.
