Sir Song, do you want to pledge yourself to me?

"Right, right, right. Last time, as soon as you mentioned your name 'Long Aotian', those thugs were so scared that they ran away!" Chen Yu was so excited that his eyes sparkled with excitement. "Nuannuan, I'll call you Nuannuan. Can I ask where your master is?"

Damn, after talking nonsense, you still have to be responsible for making up more stories!

"Oh, it's in Taohua Creek, a place where it's spring all year round and full of peach blossoms." This is not a lie, there really is such a place.

Ji Nuan was afraid that he would keep asking her questions and she would not be able to explain herself, so she changed the subject: "How about you? How did you handle that incident last time?"

Chen Yu showed a look of disdain on his face, and said contemptuously: "That coward Wen Lao San, who couldn't compete with his two older brothers in the Wen family, actually set his sights on me, wanting to get a share of the grain business. He thought he was so smart, and wanted to play people for fools. He colluded with the casino to plot against me, but my father and I teamed up to teach him an unforgettable lesson. He's probably still crying at home now." At the end, Chen Yu's face was full of joy.

After knocking on the door gently, the waiter led the group to place the sumptuous meal on the table one by one.

Upon seeing this, Chen Yu immediately invited Ji Nuan to taste the food warmly, without any regard for the saying "don't talk while eating and don't talk while sleeping". While eating, he told Ji Nuan about the shameful things that Wen Lao San had done to him, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious.

During the meal, Ji Nuan got a general understanding of the situations of the Chen and Wen families.

As the most prominent wealthy family in the city, the Chen family monopolized more than 90% of the grain and oil market. At the same time, they had extensive tentacles and were involved in many other industries, making the entire family business huge.

The Wen family is the Chen family's main competitor in the business world. The two sides maintain strategic cooperation while also engaging in fierce competition.

The third son of the Wen family, Wen, felt disrespected within the family and repeatedly attempted to undermine the Chen family through illicit means, hoping to gain a share of the rice business. Last time, he had set up a scheme to lure Chen Yu into gambling, hoping to make him addicted. Unexpectedly, the young man was clever and tricked them instead.

Chen Yu was simple-minded and had no defenses against her. He told her all his family assets. I don’t know how Mr. Chen let him go out alone.

When the two of them came out of the Heavenly Fairy, before they parted ways, Ji Nuan took the initiative to say, "If you need to find me for anything in the future, just go to Ping'an Medical Clinic and deliver a message."

"If you give me a peach, I will repay you with a jade." This little fool has decided that she is his friend and will help him with anything within her ability.

In the back hall of Ping'an Clinic, Manager Song heard the waiter report that Ji Nuan had come to visit, and he looked at Song Jinbai beside him with an inquiring look.

"Get busy," Song Jinbai ordered. Song Zhu had already reported on Ji Nuan's life, and he also knew about Ji Nuan's partnership with the clinic in the pharmaceutical business. As the real owner behind the clinic, he had only just walked over here today and stopped by to take a look, but he didn't expect to run into her here.

"I'll be right back." Shopkeeper Song respectfully withdrew. The master had come in person today, perhaps there was something important he needed to direct.

When Ji Nuan saw Shopkeeper Song coming out from the back hall, she quickly stood up and greeted him, "How are you, Shopkeeper Song?

Shopkeeper Song, still smiling, asked with concern, "How is your father these days?"

Ji Nuan responded gratefully: "Thank you, Manager Song, for your concern. He is doing well."

Then, Shopkeeper Song changed the subject and handed the account book on the counter to Ji Nuan, saying gently, "Take a look and see if last month's account records are accurate."

The account book clearly recorded every item. The total sales of medicine from the previous month's trial sale, as well as the medicine that Manager Song later personally took away from Taohua Village, totaled 1,724 taels of silver. According to the profit-sharing principle agreed upon with the clinic, after deducting 10%, the remaining balance was 1,551 taels, 600 wen.

Shopkeeper Song then handed over an exquisite little wooden box and said with a smile, "Here is the profit from last month's cooperation. Please take a look."

Ji Nuan opened the wooden box, glanced at it briefly, then closed it with satisfaction and said with a smile, "Thank you, Shopkeeper Song!"

Shopkeeper Song waved his hand quickly and said modestly, "Miss Ji, you're too polite. This is all you deserve. Also, the previous batch of finished medicine has been sold out. If you have time, please make more, Miss Ji."

Ji Nuan nodded and said, "The last batch of expedited production of hemostatic powder has been completed. I came here today to learn about the sales of the finished medicine. It seems to be very popular!"

Upon hearing this, Shopkeeper Song laughed heartily: "Hahaha, this is naturally due to the high quality of the medicine made by the young lady, which is why our medicine is sold out so quickly."

"Manager Song is indeed an experienced manager who has been in the position for many years. Your praise really makes me feel a little flattered, as if I have really become a medicine god." Ji Nuan responded with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Shopkeeper Song's smile widened. "Miss Ji, you already possess extraordinary talent. With your hard work over the years, you will surely earn the title of 'Medicine God' sooner or later."

Ji Nuan was just joking, but Shopkeeper Song took it seriously.

"Thank you, Shopkeeper Song. Learning never ends, and I still have a lot to improve on." Ji Nuan said modestly, and was about to leave. "Shopkeeper Song, if you have nothing else to say, I'll take my leave first."

Shopkeeper Song nodded in agreement, and reminded her, "If Miss Ji needs any medicinal herbs, please send someone to let me know."

Upon hearing this, Ji Nuan smiled and waved her hand gently, then turned and walked out of the door of Ping An Medical Clinic.

"From now on, no matter how many herbs or finished medicines Miss Ji sends you, I will accept them all."

Song Jinbai's voice sounded behind Shopkeeper Song, his tone unquestionable.

Shopkeeper Song turned around abruptly and bowed hurriedly, secretly speculating about the relationship between the master and Miss Ji.

"Sir... do you know Miss Ji?" Shopkeeper Song asked cautiously.

Song Jinbai nodded slightly and explained, "I was attacked this time, but fortunately Miss Ji came to my rescue." There was no need to hide this matter. If Shopkeeper Song knew about it, he could take better care of her.

Shopkeeper Song opened his mouth in surprise: "Sir, are you saying that Miss Ji also treated the chest wound?"

He recalled that when the master returned, he had carefully examined the injuries. The speed of healing and the exquisite treatment were beyond the reach of ordinary doctors. Now that he knew the truth, he couldn't help but admire Miss Ji's medical skills and marveled at her hidden personality.

"Miss Ji is really a hidden talent. She's obviously an excellent doctor, but I haven't noticed it all these years." Shopkeeper Song sighed.

Song Jinbai glanced at him and walked away.

Ji Nuan returned home with a lot of things. As soon as she entered the house, she distributed the carefully selected cloths, cakes and children's favorite toys to every member of the family.

She also specially took out three solid silver hairpins and gave them to Ji's mother, eldest sister-in-law and second sister-in-law respectively.

The second sister-in-law was so delighted when she received the silver hairpin from Ji Nuan that she could hardly close her mouth. She thanked Ji Nuan repeatedly. Apart from the thin silver hairpin she received as a betrothal gift at her wedding, this was the second time in her life that she had her own jewelry.

Amidst the laughter and joy, Ji Nuan felt a little embarrassed by the praise from her family. She took out the small box containing the silver and handed it to Ji's mother.

Ji's mother took the small box and happily thought that this was another gift that Ji Nuan had specially chosen for her. She gently opened the box under the gaze of the whole family.

However, when she saw the silver in the box, an expression of surprise appeared on her face.

"Mom, what good things did my younger sister buy for you again?" The second sister-in-law came forward curiously, her eyes full of anticipation.
