Reborn to marry a playboy, the scumbag kneels down and calls me aunt
Chapter 157 Infection
The maid hurriedly stopped Su Xuqing, saying repeatedly: "You can't go, you can't go. The Crown Princess was infected while serving the old princess, and now she is bedridden... The old princess has issued a death order, saying that you are not allowed to pay respects. What if you infect the Crown Prince? He is weak..."
Su Xuqing frowned. The old princess's consideration was not unreasonable. If she got sick, she would most likely infect her husband. He was weak and if he fell seriously ill... the consequences would be disastrous.
After a pause, Su Xuqing pulled out a few banknotes from his sleeve and said, "Take this money and hire a few more doctors to see me. Pick the best medicines. If you don't have enough, come back to me for more."
"Yes……"
The little maid took the banknotes in both hands and then hurried back.
The old princess is the person that Su Xuqing cares about the most besides Shen Xuanheng. Seeing her sick, Su Xuqing feels bad.
He touched his cuffs and found that five hundred of the three thousand taels of silver notes were gone, leaving only two thousand five hundred taels. This amount of silver was the payment that Sun Youwei had made in advance for the goods, but now she had not even purchased the medicinal materials yet.
Previously, because of Sudan’s incident, the renovation of the shop in the north of the city was delayed for two days. Now that Sudan has been dealt with, Su Xuqing estimated that Sun Youwei should be back on track.
So Su Xuqing planned to find Sun Youwei and continue the previous business of the shop.
Half an hour later, in the backyard of the Sun Mansion.
There is flowing water under a small bridge and clear tea in the pavilion. Sun Youwei personally pours tea for Su Xuqing with an elegant posture, showing the demeanor of a lady from a noble family.
Su Xuqing held the tea in her hand and said with a smile, "Miss Sun, are you free today? Let's go find someone to renovate the shop together. Then we can find a reliable pharmacy to cooperate with in the afternoon. After purchasing herbs in bulk, we can make freckle removal potion and sell it on the shelves."
When talking about the shop, Sun Youwei lost her original enthusiasm and instead showed a somewhat frustrated attitude.
"Sister Su, this medicine shop may not be able to open."
Su Xuqing was stunned for a moment, "Why is this?"
Sun Youwei sighed, "Sister Su, my father is the prince's teacher. The Sun family has been a family of scholars for generations. I have been well-read since I was young, and I am proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. All the young talents in the capital city praise me as the most talented woman in the capital. Although I have always remembered my father's teachings to be prudent, restrain oneself and return to propriety, and not be proud, it would be a lie to say that I am not proud in my heart."
At this point, Sun Youwei laughed at herself, "But the experiences of these days have made me deeply aware of my own shortcomings. When I bought the shop, I was harassed by the landlord and I couldn't deal with it calmly. When I was bullied by Sudan, I didn't know how to deal with it properly. It was Sister Su who rushed around to help me deal with it..."
Sun Youwei bit her lower lip with a bitter expression.
"If I really opened a shop, it would probably be closed down in no time."
Su Xuqing was silent for a moment. It seemed that what had happened in the past few days had hit this well-educated and well-mannered young lady. However, the children of officials were all brought up in the palm of their hands, and no one would talk back to them easily. So when they met someone who was unreasonable and dirty, they had no idea how to deal with it.
It seems that having life too smooth is not a good thing.
After thinking for a while, Su Xuqing smiled and said, "Miss Sun, if you don't plan to open a chamber of commerce, then the shop will be bought in vain? And are you going to give up on Pavilion Master Liang as well?"
When Su Xuqing mentioned Liang Heng, Sun Youwei didn't know why she felt her heart wasn't as excited as before... It was like a loft built on the beach that was washed away by the sea.
"Hmm... this..."
Seeing Sun Youwei's hesitation, Su Xuqing thought that she was struggling because she couldn't let go of Liang Heng, so she quickly comforted her, "Miss Sun, don't worry too much. At most, we can run the Chamber of Commerce together in the future. If there is anything we don't understand, we can ask Pavilion Master Liang for advice. With him as a backup, it won't go bankrupt. What do you think?"
"Then...okay..."
Seeing that Sun Youwei's answer was somewhat reluctant, Su Xuqing thought for a moment and said, "Of course, if you really want to give up, you don't have to force yourself. Although I'm very short of money now, I won't force you to continue. I'm just thinking of other ways to make money."
Upon hearing Su Xuqing say this, Sun Youwei became secretly angry and muttered to herself.
Sun Youwei! It was you who wanted to open the Chamber of Commerce! Sister Su accompanied you through so many days! How can you just give up like that!
No, I have to persevere! Let Sister Su make more money!
Taking a deep breath, Sun Youwei cleared her mind of distracting thoughts and her eyes gradually became firm.
"Sister Su, I've made up my mind. I want to continue running the Chamber of Commerce, but if I encounter any difficulties, you must help me with some advice."
Seeing Sun Youwei perked up again, Su Xuqing immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
"Don't worry, I will definitely help you."
After reorganizing their future direction, Su Xuqing and Sun Youwei left the backyard hand in hand, planning to go to the north of the city to find someone to renovate the shop.
When passing through the corridor, a maid came towards them with a faint medicinal fragrance. Su Xuqing sniffed and said, "Miss Sun, is your father's illness still not healed?"
Sun Youwei sighed softly, "I was feeling better the past two days, but I got sick again today. The doctor came to see me this morning. He said that this cold is quite common recently, and many people in the capital have been infected."
Feeling the breeze blowing towards her, which was moderately cool and hot, Su Xuqing really didn't understand why so many people caught a cold in such weather?
Sun Youwei took a carriage to the shop in the north of the city and hired a few maids to clean the shop. There were many carpenter workshops in the north of the city. Su Xuqing asked a few experienced masters and invited them to renovate the shop. Some worm-eaten and damaged areas needed to be repaired.
After a busy morning, the shop was cleaned inside and out. All that was left was to wait for the carpenter to take his time and renovate the shop by painting it.
At noon, Su Xuqing and Sun Youwei had lunch in a restaurant on North Street. After resting for a while in the carriage, they returned to the city center to look for reliable shops.
During this time, Su Xuqing complained to Sun Youwei about how rip-off the pharmacy they had found before was.
Sun Youwei blinked her watery eyes and asked Su Xuqing a question.
"Sister Su, Tianxing Pavilion also operates a medicine shop in the capital. Why don't you buy from Tianxing Pavilion? If I remember correctly, you can get a big discount when you buy things from the Tianxing Pavilion's store, right?"
Su Xuqing was stunned for a moment, then patted his smooth forehead.
"I suddenly remembered an old saying, 'Looking for a donkey while riding a donkey...'"
Sun Youwei was amused by her. She covered her face with her sleeves and laughed secretly, her eyes were more beautiful than crescent moons.
The medicine shop of Tianxing Pavilion in the capital city is called Baozhitang. After asking around, they found its location. After Su Xuqing stated her identity and purpose of visit, the owner of Baozhitang readily signed a document and provided Su Xuqing with medicinal materials at a very large discount.
