The shopkeeper immediately stood up and looked at Song Wanning and said, "If the boss doesn't believe me, I can ask him to go out on the street and ask how much the materials cost on this street. These are the prices listed above, and I didn't lie a cent."

"As far as I know, it is true that the price of lip balm materials in the whole street is this price, but how can it be this price if you buy more goods?" Song Wanning narrowed her eyes and said in a cold voice, "If the shopkeeper can't buy more goods to make the shops outside cheaper, I'm afraid he is unworthy of his position. The monthly salary I pay to the shopkeeper is not low. The shopkeeper has been operating outside for many years and is an old acquaintance with those shops. I'm afraid the kickbacks he takes are more than half of it, right?"

"Boss." The shopkeeper was choked for a moment and said slowly, "I... I took some kickbacks. Please give me a chance. I still have parents, wife and children waiting to be taken care of at home. I will definitely die for you in the future."

Song Wanning's eyes were clear, and she said coldly, "One, spit out the kickbacks you took, and two, pack up and leave. It's your choice."

"This... I..." Shopkeeper Sun looked embarrassed, looking at Song Wanning hesitantly, "Boss, it's not that I can't take it out, but my mother got sick a while ago and spent a lot of money, so I took the kickback from the shop. Can you forgive me this time?"

Song Wanning put the teacup back on the table. "If you can't come up with that much money now, you can also deduct it from your monthly salary. In short, it's impossible for you to spend all this money for nothing. Think about it carefully. Of course, correspondingly, there will be some interest on your monthly salary every month."

"Boss..." The shopkeeper wanted to make some excuses for himself, but he saw Song Wanning raised her hand.

"I still have a lot of other things to do. If you really can't choose a shopkeeper, I will send a new one to replace you tomorrow." Song Wanning folded her hands and sat calmly in the chair waiting for the shopkeeper's answer.

Seeing the shopkeeper's face, Song Wanning knew that this kind of person just wanted to see if she was weak and could be bullied. If Song Wanning forgave him this time, he would definitely become more powerful in the future.

The shopkeeper had a bitter look on his face. Seeing that Song Wanning was unwilling to give in, he had no choice but to say hesitantly, "Since the boss says so, I will go back and find relatives to collect money to make up for the kickbacks."

"Okay, pay me back within three days, otherwise don't blame me for being rude." After Song Wanning finished speaking, she stood up and left the rouge shop.

The shopkeeper's face turned gloomy when he saw Song Wanning leaving. It took him a long time to turn around and go back to the shop.

After Song Wanning finished her business at the shop, she went to the street and followed Caique back to the Song Mansion.

She looked around after entering the room, and indeed saw a few servants acting suspiciously not far away. They must have been sent by Wen Tingbo to guard here.

Song Wanning walked in and saw Song Lan practicing martial arts in the yard. She walked quickly to him and Song Lan turned around and greeted her, "Sister is back."

"Brother, there are a few people of unknown origin guarding outside. Can you think of a way to drive them away?"

"What? So bold?" Song Lan narrowed his eyes and was about to go out, "I'll go take a look, I'll throw ticklers at them."

Song Wanning laughed twice, turned around and went back to her own yard.

In order to go to the Marquis Zhongping's Mansion to discuss Song Wanning's divorce, Song Jing specially sent a letter to the Marquis' Mansion and went to visit.

In order to avoid being wrongly accused by the people in the Marquis' Mansion, Song Wanning also got on the carriage and went with them.

Song Jing originally didn't plan to bring Song Lan to his home, but Song Lan said that he was good at talking, so he insisted on coming along.

The door of the Marquis Zhongping's Mansion was now open. As soon as Song Jing entered, Wen Tingbai's mother, Mrs. Wang, appeared at the door, which was rare for her. She welcomed Song Jing, Song Lan and Song Wanning in.

Madam Wang smiled brightly as she looked at Song Jing and said, "Father-in-law, since Wan Ning married into our mansion, she has not formally met you. Now she has finally met you. The younger generations in the family have all said that they want to see the mighty general, and they finally got the chance."

Seeing that Song Jing was not in a good mood, Madam Wang took two steps back and walked to Song Lan. "This must be General Song Lan, the young and promising major general of General Song Jing? He is truly a rare talent."

"Thank you for your kindness, Madam." Song Lan chuckled twice and said, "Madam, I'm afraid you haven't seen it. There are more men like me in Huizhou than you can count with both hands."

"Yes...really?"

"No wonder Madam is surprised." Song Lan stepped forward and said with a smile, "After all, my appearance and talent are much better than Madam's son."

"You..." Mrs. Wang's face turned completely black after hearing what Song Lan said, but she couldn't get angry, so she could only keep silent and go to Rongfu Hall together.

Many people have gathered in Rongfu Hall now. Wen Tingbo and the old lady are of course there, but Wen Xian and Wen Tingcheng's families are also there, and even Wen Tingxun, the dandy young man who has always been elusive, is there.

The old lady above changed her usual cold attitude towards Song Wanning and now had a smile on her face.

According to etiquette, Song Jing called the ancestor sitting above "old lady".

"Wan Ning is back. She was in trouble but she asked the general to send her here." The old lady glanced at Song Wan Ning and said, "It's good that she's back. It's good that she's back. There are always couples who don't quarrel."

"Old lady, I am not here today to make these two children reconcile." Song Jing has always been serious, and now in his long robe, his cold aura can be spread everywhere. "I am here today to discuss the divorce of the two children."

"When they got married, I, as Wan Ning's father, was not at home and did not help Wan Ning check. This is really my fault. As a result, the two children have a bad relationship and have come to this point now." Song Jing sighed and said bluntly, "My son-in-law also has a lover, and we really shouldn't keep the two children tied together. Since this is the case, let's separate them."

Wen Xian, who was sitting nearby, was also panicked when he heard about He Li, and hurriedly said, "This... General, I'm afraid it's not that serious yet, right? Bo Ge'er is indeed an ignorant person, but Bo Ge'er has said in recent days that he will definitely make it up to Wan Ning in the future. Why don't you give Bo Ge'er another chance?"

"The Minister only needs to go outside and ask, which princes and nobles don't regard Wan Ning as a joke in the capital?" Song Jing started to get angry when he mentioned this topic, and said in a deep voice, "If she wasn't your daughter, you wouldn't know how much you felt sorry for her, but she is my daughter, and I feel sorry for her."

The people in the Marquis' Mansion looked at each other, none of them had expected that the situation had become so irreversible.

Wen Xian sighed. He really didn't want to let the Song family go. "My dear relatives, is there really no room for negotiation on this matter now?"
