Shen Mutang looked at the crazy Yin Fang in bewilderment, his face completely confused.

"What's going on? Where did the young lady come from?"

"Of course it's a cure for the plague!"

"What? Let me see!"

Shen Mutang snatched the prescription from Yin Fang's hand and began to read it.

"You are indeed a lucky boy, to have found such a capable wife. Ask your grandfather to send someone to propose marriage and settle the marriage as soon as possible..."

"Uncle Yin, are you crazy? What are you talking about?"

"You kid still want to deny it? If you didn't have a crush on Miss Lin, why would you give her the Shen Mansion medicine card? Miss Lin and her servants have come to the medicine hall so many times in the past few days. Don't you know it yourself?"

Yin Fang snorted in dissatisfaction, cursing Shen Mutang in his heart for being so mean for not telling him earlier.

When Yin Fang examined Lin Yushu at the General's Mansion, he felt that Lin Yushu looked somewhat familiar, but he did not think much about it.

Until a few days ago, the servant told him that the young mistress came to see the young master.

He took a look from afar and recognized at once that this person was the eldest daughter of the general's mansion, Lin Yushu!

Even though she was dressed modestly and wore a veil, she could not escape Yin Fang's sharp eyes.

Later, when the servant beside Lin Yushu came to ask for blood from the plague patients, it was Yin Fang who gave it out.

Unexpectedly, Lin Yushu was so capable that she actually solved the problem of the plague that he was helpless against!

Yin Fang never expected that the plague was mixed with a strange poison that he had never seen before. Thanks to Lin Yushu, otherwise it would take an unknown amount of time to resolve this plague.

The longer the plague lasts, the more people will die, and it will become a living hell.

"What are you thinking about? She exchanged the medicine card for the solution to the yellow-striped green snake's venom. This time she came to help treat the plague because her father is the commander-in-chief of Yanzhou..."

Boom!

"Ahhh! Uncle Yin, what are you doing!?"

A huge bang exploded on Shen Mutang's head, causing him so much pain that he saw stars and tears flowed down his face.

"So that means she doesn't fancy you at all? Asshole! Why don't you fight for such a good girl? Go and show your affection, you little brat! Go now!"

"If you can't win Miss Lin's heart, don't come back to the hall!"

So, Shen Mutang was kicked out by Yin Fang while crying.

"What's going on? I need to go talk to Nan Rongjing!"

In the Prince Jin's Mansion, Shen Mutang had just finished talking about how Lin Yushu had helped him solve the plague prescription, and he hadn't said a word about how he was misunderstood and beaten up by Uncle Yin...

Once again, Shen Mutang was kicked out by Nan Rongjing.

"Just wait for me! I'm going to die! I'm going to scare you to death!"

Ignoring Shen Mutang's impotent rage at the gate of the mansion, Nan Rongjing called Mu Shang.

"You personally deliver the antidote to Lin Mingyue."

Mu Shang's eyes twitched, and he personally... sent it to Yanzhou...

"Your Highness, although the prescription is precious, you can just send a team of imperial guards. If I go, there will be no one to serve you."

"It's okay, just go and come back soon."

Mu Shang was speechless. Nan Rongjing always asked other shadow guards or Yulin guards to do such things, and rarely let him go so far away alone.

What's more, delivering the prescription is not a difficult task.

What Mu Shang didn't know was that Nan Rongjing had personally told Lin Yushu under the identity of "Mu Shang": When the antidote is ready, I will personally deliver it to General Lin...

A gentleman’s word is as good as gold, and Nan Rongjing always keeps his word!

So, the wronged Mu Shang set off for the distant Yanzhou.

After being busy for so many days, Lin Yushu finally breathed a sigh of relief and was lying on the bed to catch up on her sleep.

At this time in the general's mansion, the old lady and the second lady had no time to rest and were busy as hell.

“What do you mean by total loss?”

The old lady couldn't believe what the second lady had just said. She actually said that all twenty shops in the mansion were losing money!

The second wife was also puzzled. The twenty shops had obviously been running well. Even though the profits were not huge, they had always been bringing in money. However, recently they all suffered losses, and the losses were huge!

"These twenty shops were all Ye Yuanshuang's dowry. Last month, something happened at the Ji family's old house, and all the Ji family members in the shops were called away..."

This was the only reason the Second Lady could think of, but she was too embarrassed to say it.

In the home of the Minister of Rites, there is no one who can manage a shop!

The business was entirely dependent on the management of the old lady's family from the Duke of Qing's Mansion. Without them, the shop immediately went from profitable to loss-making. How embarrassing!

"A bunch of useless things!"

The old lady's chest heaved violently, and she understood the second lady's implication.

Most of the expenses of the General's Mansion were supported by the twenty shops left by Ye Yuanshuang. Although these shops did not make much profit, they were still enough to cover the daily expenses of the General's Mansion.

The extra money can just make up for the losses of other shops in the General’s Mansion.

Now that these twenty shops are making losses, it is equivalent to directly cutting off the source of silver for the General's Mansion.

If the losses continue, I'm afraid I'll lose all my family assets.

"How much did you lose?"

The old lady took a deep breath and calmed down.

She has been getting angry frequently recently and her health has deteriorated significantly. The court doctor has been warning her not to get angry again, otherwise she would be at risk of a stroke.

"This month I lost a total of four thousand taels..."

four thousand!!

The old lady felt that all the blood in her body rushed to her head, and her eyes went dark. She could neither see nor hear for a moment, and her whole body seemed to be treading on cotton, swaying.

The old lady took a cup of tea to finally calm down.

The second lady next to her was so scared that she almost cried. If the old lady died because of her words, she would never be able to wash herself clean even if she jumped into the Yellow River.

In one month, each store lost an average of two hundred taels of silver.

When making a profit, a shop would make no more than a hundred taels.

The old lady's face was as pale as paper and her breath was weak.

The second lady didn't dare to provoke the old lady anymore and hurriedly said something nice.

"The Ji family just left, and our people took over in a hurry, so it's inevitable that there will be omissions. Things will definitely be better next month!"

After hearing this, the old lady's expression gradually improved.

And at this moment in the mansion of Duke Qing.

The old lady of Duke Qing looked at the account book in her hand with a look of dissatisfaction.

"Why is the loss so small?"

She withdrew most of the staff from the twenty stores, but not all of them.

Some confidants were left in each store, but the general's mansion did not know that these confidants were from the Ji family.

The old lady of the Duke of Qing has been in the business world for most of her life. She has seen and used all kinds of tactics.

It is too easy to make only 20 shops suffer losses.

The old lady of Duke Qing stared at her subordinates and warned them sternly.

"Next month's losses must be doubled!"
