Rich Peasant Girl: The General's Wife Has Space

Xiao Wan acted sincere on the surface, but in her heart she just wanted to quickly draw a line between herself and Duan Hongyi, so her face was a little anxious.

In Duan Hongyi's opinion, he really didn't know that Xiao Wan already knew about his affairs. Seeing Xiao Wan's sincere and earnest expression, he couldn't help but feel moved.

Wan'er didn't want to separate her business from him, but she was just thinking about him and worried that reconciling the accounts would consume his energy.

Duan Hongyi felt somewhat complacent in his heart. Wan'er treated him differently after all. Otherwise, why would she give him such a profitable recipe without hesitation?

However, if the ice-making recipe is given to him, it will indeed play a greater role in his hands.

Not to mention anything else, just to support the Fifth Prince, he has to put more effort into doing business well, and he also has to win over the people around the Fifth Prince, which costs a lot.

But as a man, how could he let Xiao Wan suffer? Although Xiao Wan would become his in the future and he wouldn't feel bad about letting Xiao Wan spend his money, that was all in the future. At the moment, the Fifth Prince's affairs were more important.

Thinking of this, Duan Hongyi's expression became softer. He looked at Xiao Wan with deep affection in his eyes but tried his best to suppress his emotions, fearing that Xiao Wan would notice the feelings in his heart.

"Wan'er, since it is your kindness, I will accept it. But I would feel ashamed to take your prescription for free." Duan Hongyi couldn't help but blurt out the name "Wan'er".

Although Xiao Wan felt a little uncomfortable, she forced herself to endure and continue listening.

"I won't take your prescription for free. Here are two hundred thousand taels of silver notes. Please accept them and consider it as me buying your prescription. Although it is not as valuable as the prescription itself, it is at least a token of your appreciation." Duan Hongyi pulled out a stack of silver notes from his sleeve and handed them to Xiao Wan.

Xiao Wan wanted to refuse, but seeing Duan Hongyi's firm attitude, she sighed inwardly, nodded, and took it.

If possible, she still wants to continue doing business with Duan Hongyi. Duan Hongyi is a relatively upright person and she can get along well with him.

It was he who helped him when he was in the most difficult time. Although choosing another restaurant might have had a better result, Duan Hongyi still showed more kindness to himself at that time.

In the days to come, I hope he will take care of himself and stop in time, otherwise they are destined to stand on opposite sides in the future, and Zhao Mingyuan and the second prince will not let him go.

However, if Xiao Wan knew Duan Hongyi's feelings for her and his future plans, she would probably be disgusted and regret having been too soft on him.

"Also, this is the final dividend from our ice-making business that Manager Liu calculated earlier. Your share is 95,000 taels, so take that as well."

Xiao Wan never thought that the amount of dividends this time would be so considerable. She couldn't help but show joy on her face. She took the banknote like a money-grubber. This was the result of her labor and wisdom.

"Master Duan, there's one thing I need to explain first. Although I've given you the ice-making recipe, I can still make ice myself or sell it to others."

Although Xiao Wan no longer collaborates with Duan Hongyi to make and sell ice, she still needs ice as her shop has grown.

If I have some free time, I can build an ice-making workshop. After all, no one would complain about having too much money.

When Duan Hongyi saw Xiao Wan taking the banknote and her expression was no longer as serious as before, his heart couldn't help but soften.

This recipe will be Xiao Wan's dowry. He has taken advantage of her this time, but he will never let her down in the future. He will definitely let Xiao Wan marry him with honor.

Duan Hongyi didn't care when he heard what Xiao Wan said. He knew that Xiao Wan's Qilixiang cold drinks in summer could not be separated from ice, so why would he care about such trivial matters.

After all, Xiao Wan is just a woman, no matter how capable she is, she cannot spread the ice-making business throughout Da Qi.

"That's natural. After all, the recipe came from you. Two hundred thousand taels is just a small compensation I give out of guilt. I can't buy your recipe."

However, Wan'er's business ability is not weak now. She has new ideas one after another, and has been conferred the title of county lord, which is enough to match her status.

When I follow that duke and become a prime minister, I will marry Wan'er in a grand ceremony, and he will have a place in the court. Wan'er can also help a lot with the family business.

By then, at home and outside, the two of them will support each other, and who knows how they will get along! I must accomplish great things! Duan Hongyi secretly swore in his heart.

Duan Hongyi left with a heavy heart for Xiao Wan, completely severing ties with her business. Xiao Wan only sighed briefly and quickly put the thought behind her.

At this moment, she didn't know that she would be so deeply involved with Duan Hongyi in the future.
