Chapter 206 Testing Medicine
There was no movement behind the gauze curtain for a long while, and then a lazy voice came out after a long time, "Why should I punish you? Did Manager Shang ask you to bring back a message?"
Manager Zhong bowed his head and said, "Manager Shang asked me to convey her gratitude to you."
"Thank you?" The young man snorted, poured another glass of wine, and slowly brought it to his lips.
Steward Zhong said, "Shopkeeper Shang will host a banquet at the Qionghua Restaurant the day after tomorrow. Please be sure to come."
Qionghua Restaurant is the restaurant opened by Qiao Yuguai.
The room suddenly became quiet, green smoke slowly rose from the copper incense burner, and the rich floral fragrance filled the room.
Manager Zhong stood up silently, but his head was still lowered, with a respectful attitude.
The lazy voice came from behind the gauze curtain again, "Is there any news from the capital?"
"No."
"No, there is." The young man repeated word by word, tapping his knuckles on the table, muttering to himself, "How can there be nothing?"
After a while, Manager Zhong heard the person behind the curtain say, "If there is no news, then there is no news. Report it immediately."
Manager Zhong responded quickly: "Yes."
"Tell Shopkeeper Shang that I will go."
"Yes."
The room was silent for a moment, and then the young man's voice sounded again, "What has Chu Wujiu been doing recently?"
"Master Chu is looking for someone to paint a picture of walking in the snow."
The young man became interested, changed his position on the couch, and asked, "Can you find someone?"
"Found it. The man is a scholar named Lu." Manager Zhong raised his head and glanced at the vague figure behind the gauze curtain. "He is the husband of Shopkeeper Shang."
"Ha." The young man was a little surprised, "What a coincidence."
He suddenly remembered something and asked, "Is this Mr. Lu the third young master who was excluded from the Lu family tree and passed the exam to become a scholar at the age of thirteen?"
"Exactly."
"Tsk tsk, picking up sesame seeds and losing watermelons." The young man shook his head disdainfully, "Lu Mingsheng's brain must have been kicked by a donkey."
Manager Zhong looked at the matter with his eyes and nose, and did not comment on it.
The young man said, "Go tell Chu Wujiu that I will invite him to dinner at Qionghua Restaurant the day after tomorrow."
Manager Zhong knew that his boss wanted to have fun, so he didn't ask any more questions and replied, "Yes."

As it was getting dark, Shang Wan paid Wu Kai today's wages and handed him a box of ointment.
"This ointment can lighten scars. Take it home and try it."
Wu Kai's eyes moved slightly, he glanced at the box but did not reach out to take it.
He had bought countless ointments claiming to remove scars, but none of them helped.
The doctor said that this was an old scar and that ointment would not lighten it at all, so he was told not to waste his money.
"I won't charge you any money." Shang Wan stuffed the ointment box into his hands. "You just need to work hard for me. After the scar fades, help me spread the word to the neighbors."
Is there such a good thing?
Wu Kai's eyes widened slightly, "Manager Shang, are you serious?"
"Of course." Shang Wan told him how to use the ointment. "Apply it to the scar after washing your face. Don't apply too much. Just a thin layer will be enough. You will see the effect within three days."
Wu Kai didn't believe that the results would be seen in three days, but seeing Shang Wan's confident look, he felt a little hope in his heart.
What if?
What if this ointment really works on the scars on his face?
If he had no scars on his face, or if the scars were lighter and looked less scary, there would definitely be girls willing to marry him.
He wants to live a life with his wife and children and a warm bed!
"Thank you." Wu Kai thanked him while holding the ointment box. Regardless of whether it was useful or not, at least the other person had good intentions.
"You're welcome. I'll thank you if you help me promote it." Shang Wan waved his hand and said, "You don't have to eat breakfast at home tomorrow. Go to the restaurant next door. I'll ask the boss lady to prepare it for you."
Hearing this, not only Wu Kai, but even his two nephews couldn't help but sigh that Manager Shang was such a good person.
After watching Wu Kai and the other two leave, Xiao Huan turned to look at Shang Wan, "Sister, let's go back too. My brother-in-law and the others must be waiting anxiously."
Shang Wan nodded, bent down and patted Xiao Hei's head, "Guard the shop well. If thieves break in, bite them. If they are damaged, it's my fault."
Xiao Hei woofed in a very human way and wagged his tail at Shang Wan.
Yuanyuan stretched out her little hand and waved at it, "See you tomorrow, doggie."
"Wang!"
·
"We're back!" Shitou saw the ox cart from the hillside, waved excitedly, and ran over to greet them with Xiaohui.
Little Gray pushed Yuanyuan onto his back with his head and ran home with the baby on his back.
Yuanyuan baby blinked his big eyes blankly, and the night wind blowing in his face covered his face, making the little hair on his head messy.
At the gate of the courtyard stood a man in blue, with a tall and slender figure and a smile on his face.
Yuanyuan's eyes lit up and she called out crisply, "Daddy!"
"Yeah." Lu Chengjing agreed, bending down to take the baby off the wolf's back, "Do you miss your daddy?"
"Yes!" the baby answered loudly and nodded his head vigorously.
The ox cart stopped in front of the courtyard gate, and Shang Wan and several others jumped off the cart.
Shitou reached out and took Yuanyuan from Lu Chengjing's arms, and walked inside while holding her. As he walked, he chattered to Yuanyuan, "Uncle went into the mountains to pick some red fruits today, and I saved them for you and Anian. They are very sweet, and you will definitely like them."
Yuanyuan hugged Uncle Shitou's neck obediently and called her little brother to follow her to see the sweet fruits together.
Xiao Huan was thinking about cooking, so she asked, "Brother-in-law, have you and Shi Tou eaten yet?"
Lu Chengjing: "Shitou fried two dishes, and we'll eat together when you come back."
"Then I'll cook another soup." Xiaohuan said this and hurried to the kitchen.
Suddenly, only Shang Wan and Lu Chengjing were left outside the courtyard. Shang Wan smiled at Lu Chengjing and said, "Why are you looking at me like an idiot? Don't you recognize me?"
Lu Chengjing shook his head and walked over to help hold the ox cart.
"You didn't come back last night. I wanted to look for you, but the city gates were closed at that time."
"worry about me?"
Lu Chengjing nodded and asked, "What happened last night?"
Shang Wan briefly recounted the incident, especially mentioning the apology Zhongli had sent to his door, and concluded by saying, "I feel like he is a weasel paying New Year's greeting to a chicken - he has no good intentions."
"Maybe." Lu Chengjing pursed his lips and frowned.
Seeing his serious expression, Shang Wan couldn't help but stop joking and asked seriously, "What did you think of?"
Lu Chengjing looked up at her, opened his lips, and seemed to be hesitant to speak.
Shang Wan was so anxious that he raised his hand to pinch his cheek and urged him, "Hurry up and tell me."
Lu Chengjing bent down slightly to make it easier for Shang Wan to pinch him.
He lowered his eyes to stare at Shang Wan's outfit and asked softly, "Does Boss Zhong know that my wife is already in a relationship?"
Shang Wan: “???”
Shang Wan: “…”
She took her hand back and rolled her eyes at the person in front of her, "What are you thinking about?"
She already has a baby, how could Zhongli not know that she is married?
Besides, that guy is a little crazy, and his actions cannot be judged by ordinary people.
She raised her hand and poked Lu Chengjing in the chest, "Be more confident, you are better looking than Boss Zhong."
Lu Chengjing: “…”
So you still have to rely on your looks?
