After the banquet, the number of guests who came to visit Wen Shuquan at Wen's house suddenly increased.
Suddenly, Yanyuan also became lively.
Lu Tao was very annoyed by this matter.
Early that morning, she led the little girl to bring in charcoal fire.
"Miss! I really don't want to go out!" Lu Tao asked the maids to stoke the fire, while she sat in front of Wen Qingzhu and complained.
Wen Qingzhu was embroidering the sachet and said without raising his head: "It's okay. In a few days, when uncle can go out, those servants will stop."
Hearing this, Lu Tao was suddenly surprised: "Miss, do you mean that the big house can still gain power?"
Wen Qingzhu put down the things in his hands and said with a faint smile: "Lu Tao, the eldest family is the eldest family after all. After my grandfather passes away, the Wen family will still be divided! But I see that this matter is coming soon."
She raised her eyes and looked towards Fuyuan. Wen Qingxin had been planning for so many days, and it was time to take action.
Mrs. Liu has been lying on the hospital bed in a daze.
Wen Qingfang has been having a rough time recently and rarely goes to Fushou Hall. Only Wen Qingxin does her best to serve there.
While chatting, Mother Ye walked in with a letter.
"Miss, there is news from Uncle Zhong that he has his eye on a drug store and wants to buy it. I asked Miss to take a look at it later."
After Wen Qingzhu read the letter, his expression became solemn.
"It's actually this pharmacy?"
Lu Tao looked over and took a look, curiously asking: "What's wrong with this pharmacy?"
"This drug store was very powerful thirty years ago. Then, for some unknown reason, it slowly declined and is now on the verge of bankruptcy."
In Wen Qingzhu's impression, the grandson of this pharmacy seemed to have become a famous doctor.
"No matter how powerful it was in the past, it was still the same. Things are changing!" Lu Tao didn't take it seriously.
Wen Qingzhu smiled: "Some people can't get up even if you give them a chance, but some people can stand up even in adversity. This Baoding Hall is not easy! The day after tomorrow, you peony, let's go out together Go!" Wen Qingzhu decided that he must recruit that person himself.
Once he shows up, Jiang Yuancheng will definitely find ways to take him under his wing.
"Ah?" Lu Tao didn't expect Wen Qingzhu to take this matter so seriously, and was suddenly confused.
Wen Qingzhu put away the letter: "You can go out with me more often. Some people's potential is unimaginable."
That night, Wen Qingzhu prepared to fall asleep after practicing calligraphy.
Shaoyao knocked on the door outside: "Miss, Miss Eleven is here."
Wen Qingzhu put down the pen in his hand, covered the book on the table, turned and walked to the table, and then said: "Let her in."
The front door was pushed open, and Wen Qingxin walked in quickly wearing a black cloak, hugging the cold winter wind.
After she came in, Shaoyao closed the door outside.
Wen Qingxin took off her hood, revealing Wen Qingxin's thin face: "Sister Qi, my sister is here to trouble you again."
"Sit down." Wen Qingzhu has become accustomed to this.
After the two sat down, Wen Qingzhu poured her a cup of hot tea.
Wen Qingxin took it, thanked him, and then took out a jade pendant from his sleeve.
Wen Qingzhu took a closer look and felt that he looked particularly familiar.
"This jade pendant..."
Wen Qingxin turned the jade pendant over, and there was a special character Qi engraved on the back.
"Is it something from the palace?" Wen Qingzhu looked at it intently and felt that things were a little off track.
Wen Qingxin replied: "To be precise, this is something from the Prince's Mansion. It is a thank-you gift given to the Sixth Sister by the Prince's Mansion several times. When I went to Zimingtang yesterday, I met the Oriole next to the Sixth Sister. She took this jade pendant. I gave it to a boy working under Guanshi Hai."
"Then how did you get it?" Wen Qingzhu looked up and felt that Wen Qingxin was not simple.
Wen Qingxin raised the corners of her lips and looked into her eyes steadily: "Because Manager Hai rejected this jade pendant."
Wen Qingzhu was thoughtful.
Wen Dahai is a very special person in the Wen family.
He was highly skilled in martial arts and was Wen Guanbin's confidant. He was responsible for many secret affairs of the Wen family.
This time Wen Qingfang gave Steward Hai the jade pendant from the Prince's Mansion simply because he wanted to cooperate with him.
But Wen Dahai refused.
Wen Qingzhu raised his head and asked, "Do you know what Sixth Sister is going to do?"
"Of course." Wen Qingxin looked confident, and then took out another thing, an invitation.
Someone was invited above.
"Jiang Yuancheng!" Wen Qingzhu's pupils suddenly narrowed, and there was a hint of hatred in his eyes.
Wen Qingxin explained: "This post was given to the fifth prince by my grandfather. In addition, I have another piece of news for you. Your Aunt Wu's brother Wu Shan in Yanyuan has joined the fifth prince."
"How do you know?" Wen Qingzhu grabbed the post on the desktop and began to doubt Wen Qingzhu.
Seeing her like this, Wen Qingxin quickly explained sincerely: "Seventh sister, please don't doubt me. I am different from the sixth sister. I don't like the prince or the fifth prince. I just want to separate the family as soon as possible, and then save enough money to marry him." The right person can live the rest of his life well."
After Wen Qingxin left, Wen Qingzhu tossed and turned and couldn't sleep.
Wen Qingxin knew much more than she imagined.
"Green Tao!" Wen Qingzhu sat up and shouted outside.
Lu Tao quickly got up and asked in a loud voice: "Miss, what's wrong?"
Hearing the sound of shoes being put on outside, Wen Qingzhu ordered: "Go and call Jasmine and Shaoyao. I have something to explain to them."
Wen Qingzhu finally made up his mind to investigate Wen Qingxin.
Her source of information is very strange.
In less than a moment of burning incense, Jasmine and Peony both arrived.
After green pottery lit the lamp in the room, he put the cover on it.
The dim light in the room made Wen Qingzhu's expression somewhat uncertain.
"Jasmine, in the next three days, you should focus all your attention on Miss Eleven to see if there is any abnormality in her. Also, find out the habits of the people around her, and find a suitable opportunity to let Shaoyao disguise herself and sneak in. Let’s see who is behind Wen Qingxin’s guidance.”
"Yes!" Jasmine and Shaoyao responded at the same time.
After that, the two looked at each other. Is there something wrong with Wen Qingxin
Even the previous Wen Qingfang, the young lady had never paid such attention to her.
On the day of going out, Wen Shuquan and Wen Guanbin had already gone out.
Mr. Liu was bedridden, and his eldest son, because he offended Wen Guanbin, stayed in Huayuan and almost stopped moving around.
Yang was in charge of the Wen family for the time being, and she never asked much about Wen Qingzhu's comings and goings.
Arriving at the other courtyard, the meeting with Uncle Zhong was successful.
"Miss, please take a look at this first." As soon as Uncle Zhong saw it, he handed over an opened letter.
Wen Qingzhu took it and took a look, his expression suddenly darkened: "Jiang Yuancheng has set his sights on Baoding Hall?!"
"Yes, I just received this news last night. The fifth prince has already contacted people from Baoding Hall twice. He seems to be still hesitant, because the young man from Baoding Hall must have three thousand taels of silver before he is willing to sell it. He dropped out of the medicine shop, but the fifth prince still wanted Baodingtang’s unique secret recipe, so the two parties were at a stalemate.”
Wen Qingzhu put away the letter, took a deep breath and said, "Uncle Zhong, we have enough money and we must capture Baoding Hall today!"
Half an hour later, Wen Qingzhu and others arrived at the backyard of Baoding Hall.
Standing in front of her was a boy of fourteen or fifteen years old. He had heavy dark circles under his eyes and his face looked bad, but his eyes were unusually determined.
"Master Sun, won't you allow me to make a counter-offer for the three thousand taels of silver?" Wen Qingzhu came to see him today without showing his true face.
The young man in front of him, Sun Junming, is the only grandson of Sun Hongyuan, the owner of Baoding Hall.
Sun Hongyuan has been seriously ill in bed for seven or eight years, and all these years have been supported by Sun Junming.
Now, all the clerks in Baoding Hall have gone away. He can't find new clerks, so he can only reluctantly sell Baoding Hall.
"No counteroffer!" Sun Junming stared at Wen Qingzhu motionlessly with a serious expression on his face.
It wasn't because she was good-looking, but he didn't expect that Uncle Zhong's mistress would be such a young lady.
He looks younger than his age.
From the moment Wen Qingzhu came in, he could smell the medicinal fragrance on her body.
Sun Junming knew that Miss Wen was also proficient in pharmacological medicine.
Wen Qingzhu sighed deliberately and said lightly: "Actually, I have a way to cure your grandfather's illness. Although he cannot fully recover, he can still take care of himself."
"Really?" Sun Junming was very wary and didn't show much interest.
Because over the years, many people have used this method to deceive him.
After admitting defeat twice, Sun Junming learned to be smart.
Wen Qingzhu took out a brocade box from Shaoyao and placed it on the table between the two of them.
"Master Sun, can you open it and take a look? You must know this thing."
Sun Junming walked up to it doubtfully, opened it and took a look, his expression instantly calmed.
There is actually a 300-year-old Ganoderma lucidum inside!
"Grandpa!" Sun Junming's lips trembled uncontrollably.
Their Baoding Hall had this kind of Ganoderma a few years ago, but his grandfather was reluctant to give it to himself.
Now the condition is getting worse and worse, and Baoding Hall can no longer support it.
I wanted to use Ganoderma lucidum to treat illnesses but couldn’t find it.
When buying Ganoderma lucidum that is over a hundred years old, you almost have to rely on connections.
Because of poor management, the Sun family's relatives and friends have not had much contact with each other for a long time.
Sun Junming had no choice but to sell Baoding Hall to treat his grandfather's illness.
Now that Wen Qingzhu placed three hundred years of Ganoderma lucidum in front of her, why wasn't he excited!
But soon, he calmed down: "What do you want?"
Wen Qingzhu smiled slightly: "I want to buy you!"
"No!" Sun Junming refused without hesitation.
Wen Qingzhu did not force him, but told Shaoyao: "Put away the Ganoderma lucidum."
Sun Junming was a little flustered: "Aren't you here to buy Baoding Hall?"
Wen Qingzhu turned around and looked at him seriously: "I came here because of you. I bought Baoding Hall just by the way. Since you are not willing to use it for me, then naturally I won't buy Baoding Hall."
"Let's go!" Wen Qingzhu stood up and left without hesitation.
Sun Junming clenched his hands into fists and stared closely at their leaving figures.
His eyes would stay in the peony suitcase from time to time.
That Ganoderma lucidum!
That Ganoderma lucidum!
That Ganoderma lucidum can save grandpa!
Just when Wen Qingzhu was about to walk out of this small courtyard, Sun Junming was finally defeated!
"etc!"
When Wen Qingzhu heard his voice, the corner of his mouth curled up and he slowly turned around.
She looked at Sun Junming quietly: "Have you thought about it?"
"Think about it! The Ganoderma lucidum is for my grandpa, and you agree to treat him! In addition, you have to buy Baoding Tang!" Sun Junming stated his conditions one by one.
Wen Qingzhu led everyone back and sat down, and asked Lu Tao to take out the deed of betrayal: "Take a look at this first."
Sun Junming took it over and took a look, and his expression suddenly changed again and again.
After a long while, he looked at Wen Qingzhu with a complicated expression: "What you want to sign is not a death contract, and you don't need our Sun family's secret recipe."
"That's right! I wanted to bargain with you from the beginning, but it's a pity that you didn't let me go." Wen Qingzhu looked at him pretending to be innocent.
Sun Junming felt a lump in his throat, this... this is not a counter-offer!
It was clearly Wen Qingzhu who was trying to save him.
After a long silence, Sun Junming still didn't sign.
Wen Qingzhu asked curiously: "Do you have any other conditions?"
Sun Junming raised his head, his eyes became more complicated: "No, I just think you are weird, and you will suffer a lot."
