The mistress died of overwork, and after rebirth, she was bad at raising her cubs

Logically speaking, when Shen Qinglan inspected the shops these days and dealt with those with problems, he was quick and efficient.

Those who should be driven away are driven away, and those who should stay are stayed.

But this is based on the premise that those people have indeed committed crimes that are unforgivable.

But now, judging from Shen Qinglan's attitude towards Manager Pei, she obviously doesn't think that Manager Pei is being hypocritical. So, if that's the case, why did he transfer those shop assistants away?

Could it be that he wants to sideline Manager Pei?

Shen Qinglan looked at Ren Donglai's curious expression, laughed, and said:

"Do you think that my praise for Shopkeeper Pei for disciplining his employees properly was false?"

"Huh?" Ren Donglai was stunned for a moment and thought to himself, isn't this it?

Shen Qinglan shook his head with amusement.

She had been observing since she entered Linglong Pavilion.

All the jewelry in Linglong Pavilion, even those hanging outside, were wiped very clean.

Looking at the corners, there is not a trace of dust, which shows that the guys take good care of them on a daily basis.

Moreover, although the guys looked at her with some fear and curiosity, they did not feel guilty.

She believed that these people should have heard about her style of behavior in the past two days.

If they really did something bad, how could they hide their nervousness and guilt at this moment?

Furthermore, although she seemed to be just chatting casually with Manager Pei just now, in fact, a person's character can be seen from the way he speaks.

Manager Pei is a typical honest and simple-minded person.

And these past two days, the shop assistants are probably feeling uneasy, so they need some people to do honest and responsible work to set an example for them.

In this way, it would be easier to dispatch the shopkeeper she transferred there.

As for this Linglong Pavilion...

She planned to come up with some new ideas and send a smart shopkeeper to help Shopkeeper Pei. As for Shopkeeper Pei... since he had no talent in business, it would be better to make full use of him and help her train the shop assistants.

When Ren Donglai heard this, he couldn't help but give Shen Qinglan a thumbs up.

Everyone has his or her own strengths, so naturally we need to discover them one by one and make the best use of them.

Since Linglong Pavilion was the last one, it was still early after the matters of Linglong Pavilion were dealt with, so Shen Qinglan planned to go find Gu Changqing.

After all, she still has no idea about Huo Junyan's poison. Gu Changqing is an expert in this field and may have a better way.

But Gu Changqing is the director of the Imperial Medical Bureau, and I don’t know if he is free now.

When they arrived at Gu Changqing's residence, Gu Changqing was not there and the servants were nowhere to be found.

Shen Qinglan had no choice but to plan to go back first.

But at this moment, a pleasant female voice sounded and called Shen Qinglan:

"Sister, wait a minute."

Shen Qinglan turned around and saw a woman in a goose yellow dress walking towards her quickly. The hem of her dress fluttered in the wind like a butterfly spreading its wings.

"Sister, are you Shen Qinglan, Sister Shen?"

Shen Qinglan was stunned for a moment, then bowed slightly to the girl and said, "You are..."

When the girl heard this, she immediately stepped forward with a smile on her face, took Shen Qinglan's arm in a very familiar manner, and said enthusiastically:

"My name is Gu Junyuan, and Gu Changqing is my elder brother."

Shen Qinglan glanced at Gu Junyuan and found that her features were indeed somewhat similar to Gu Changqing's. She immediately smiled and said:

"So she is the eldest senior brother's sister. The eldest senior brother is a graceful and elegant man, and the Gu family's sister also looks kind and elegant."

Gu Junyuan couldn't help laughing when she heard Shen Qinglan's praise, and waved her hands repeatedly:

"No, no, no, I'm not like my eldest brother. He's an old-fashioned guy who always likes to scold people with a stern face. If I were like him, I'd be finished!"

After a pause, Gu Junyuan could not restrain the amazement in her eyes when she looked at Shen Qinglan, and said directly:

"On the contrary, it's Sister Shen. I've heard that Sister Shen is extremely beautiful, but now I know that hearing about her is not as good as meeting her in person! It's a pity that Sister Shen married the War King, otherwise..."

Before Gu Junyuan could finish her words, the little girl beside her suddenly started to sound alarm bells.

This older sister is the younger sister of that uncle that day!

That uncle wants to steal her mother away, and this sister also wants to steal her mother away!

All bad guys!

Immediately, Huo Jingyi stared at Gu Junyuan and said in a childish voice:

"Mom is already Dad's wife! Don't try to snatch Mom from Yi'er, otherwise..."

Only then did Gu Junyuan notice the little potato next to Shen Qinglan, and couldn't help but look at Huo Jingyi curiously.

The little fellow was very cute, and was baring his teeth at her threateningly.

He immediately stretched out his hand with a wicked smile, pinched Huo Jingyi's chubby little face and said:

"What else?"

"Let go, let go! Yi'er is biting you! Ouch!"

Huo Jingyi angrily slapped Gu Junyuan's evil hand, bared her teeth at her fiercely, and pretended to bite her.

Gu Junyuan quickly pulled her hand back, then stretched out her palm and pressed it on Huo Jingyi's forehead, preventing Huo Jingyi from moving forward even a step, and waving her hands and feet in the air.

"Hey, hey, little guy, are you a puppy? Why are you biting me?"

"If you try to steal my mother, I will bite you to death! Ouch!"

"Okay, okay, I won't rob you. Are you kidding me?"

Gu Junyuan immediately began to beg for mercy, and then looked at Shen Qinglan with a look of help.

Shen Qinglan really didn't expect that Gu Changqing, who looked like a gentle and steady man, would have such an unreliable sister.

But seeing Huo Jingyi trying so hard to pounce on him, he couldn't help but smiled dotingly, took Huo Jingyi's hand, and comforted her:

"Okay Yi'er, stop making trouble."

When Huo Jingyi heard Shen Qinglan speak, she immediately stopped obediently, hugged Shen Qinglan's thighs, and said in a milky voice:

"Whatever mother says is what it is. Yi'er will obey."

Gu Junyuan looked at the speed at which Huo Jingyi's expression changed in a second, and felt angry and amused. She simply stopped teasing Huo Jingyi, and instead took Shen Qinglan's arm and asked intimately:

"Sister, are you here today to look for my eldest brother?"

Shen Qinglan's arms were entangled, feeling a little uncomfortable, but he didn't struggle to get rid of them. He just nodded slightly and asked:

"Yes, I have something to ask my senior brother. Do you know where he is?"

"He's in Yuhetang! Someone's looking for him. Come on, I'll take you there."

Gu Junyuan was not polite at all. She directly pulled Shen Qinglan into Shen Qinglan's own carriage. She also instructed Shen Qinglan's coachman very familiarly and told him the address.

Huo Jingyi looked at Gu Junyuan hugging her mother's arm and felt it was an eyesore. She hugged Shen Qinglan's other arm tightly, as if they were trying to snatch something from each other, and glared at Gu Junyuan angrily.

Although Gu Junyuan saw that Huo Jingyi was angry, she thought it was amusing and pretended not to see it. She continued to chat with Shen Qinglan about all sorts of things.

Although Shen Qinglan didn't like being so intimate with unfamiliar people, Gu Junyuan seemed to be innocent and it was hard to dislike her.

When they arrived at Yuhe Hall, Gu Junyuan took Shen Qinglan through the hall and went to the backyard:

"Brother, brother! Where are you? Look who I brought here?"

Shen Qinglan listened to Gu Junyuan's noisy voice, which seemed a bit funny as she seemed to be arriving before her.

"Girl, I told you I'm a doctor. I treat people, not animals. Don't bring the censor's dog or the commander of the imperial guards' cat to me. I can't cure them!"

Shen Qinglan couldn't help laughing out loud when she heard Gu Changqing's tone as if he had a headache.

Only then did Gu Changqing realize that the person standing next to Gu Junyuan was Shen Qinglan!

Before Gu Changqing could speak, the young man next to Gu Changqing was even more surprised:

"Princess? Why are you here?"
